Justme's questions

1. Favorite beauty product of all time?
this is a hard one especially. For me, it will be Stila eyeshadow "Go lightly" or MAC eyeshadow in "Mulch"

2. Favorite book of all time?

This is very hard too...I would say for me "Le petit prince" by 'Antoine de Saint-Exupery

3. Married or single? Loving it or hating it?
single and loving it. I wouldn't mind some companionship once in a while. But then, I've never been in a relationship as an adult so I don't know what I am missing.

4. Link your no fail recipe you don't mind sharing
this is hard too as I always cook without a recipe or just use it as an inspiration.
I recently looked for a recipe online to make a butternut squash bread
http://www.mybakingaddiction.com/butternut-squash-bread/

I changed a few things: for instance I used whole wheat flour, olive oil, honey instead of white sugar and I added sunflower seeds


5. Copying Marie so I can get some good hints, Fav YouTube Channel?
I am subscribed to several youtube channels for different reasons.
I always look forward to "Tell'em Tuesday"
I can't get enough of Reckless Tortuga

I also love Louloumatou, Glamazini, BrownfaceTV and many more :)

6. Biggest Fear? I don't do snakes!I am also afraid of heights.

7. Have you ever been in a physical fight? Care to explain?
No, I've never been in a physical fight. I have a hard time dealing with conflict.

8. Worst Habit? not compromising enough. Sometimes I just want things to be done my way and I am slowly accepting that there are several ways to do the same thing.

9. Trait you most admire in others and why? Assertiveness as I often have a hard time to establish boundaries. Work in progress :)
