~TAG~ You're it!

Hey there! Long time no speak, well, from me at least! First off I'd like to apologise for being a bad blogger and not posting in a fair while. Secondly, I'd like to apologise to Alex for going to her house to have a constructive 'blog day' which actually turned into me eating half of her freshly made Cherry Bakewells (which if she doesn't do a recipe post for I won't be happy!) as well as 2 packs of hula-hoops, a funsize pack of party rings ( I stress the 'funsize' bit as there's nothing 'fun' about those tiny packs!) and a bagel... My bad!

Anyway, enough apologising. After waking up with some new found motivation this morning, I checked our Twitter mentions to find that we'd been tagged to do the Confessions Of A Blogger questions by the amazing (She's actually my favourite blogger but shhh!) MyDogBlog09 ! Here are our my answers... (As Alex is off spending the day with her boyfriend for his birthday, and I kind of owe it to her to post anyway!)

When did you start Blogging?

We started blogging on the 31/07/2013, so we're not even a month old yet! We're babies in the blogging world, but I know Alex and myself can't believe how fast we're growing and we thank you all for being so welcoming and encouraging to us, I love the blogging family!

Have you had any other past online presence (blogs, YouTube)
I have a separate blog which helped me get to grips with the Blogger basics but when Alex suggested we had a joint blog I thought that'd be more ideal. After all, as we've established I'm the most inconsistent blogger ever and It's great to have someone else contributing to the blog especially someone with the writing skill that Alex has!

What was your first post?
We did an introductory post just to... well... introduce ourselves! But our first 'proper' post was a Bargain Beauty post about the amazing £1 Tangle Teezer Alternative!

What was your biggest challenge about blogging?
For me (believe it or not!) it's gaining consistency in posting as well as attracting people to the blog, it's bloomin' hard work!

Where do you see your blog in one year?

Hopefully still active! I just want us to keep growing, simple as that!

What is the most rewarding thing about blogging?

Feedback. Feedback is what makes it worthwhile it's amazing to know people like what you're writing and even more so that they are actually reading it!

What is the most discouraging thing that’s happened to you?
Nothing really discouraging has happened but to speak for myself and probably Alex to an extent we're impatient and when we see these blogs who have tonnes and tonnes of followers,  I'll be honest, I get jealous! I want that for our blog, and ( in a Veruca Salt voice) I want it now! *stamps feet* I'm such a idiot that at one point I didn't even take into consideration that some of these people had been blogging for years and had worked really hard to get where they are! Thankfully, now I fully realise this and without accidentally answering the next question I have the utmost respect to all bloggers who are still at it after posting their first post, seriously, I do!

What’s your lasting motivation and inspiration?

Other bloggers! Whether it be your blog design, writing style, post ideas or even photography you wonderful lot are forever inspiring me!

So that's it! There's my confessions and I'm going to tag... YOU! Yes you, all of you! I think you can learn a lot about a blogger from these confessions so I want anyone who reads this to do them and then comment below to say you have and I'll check out your answers!!
