We’re getting festive
here with some special peeps and today we get
Christmassy with
Isabella May
Hello Isabella
Please
tell us a little about yourself and if you are a reader, blogger or author.
I'm Isabella May. My
debut novel, 'Oh! What a Pavlova' was published in October, and novel number
two: 'The Cocktail Bar' is released on February 13th!
What is
your favourite Christmas memory?
I have so many, as I
am sure most people do. Aside from the buzz that was decorating the tree as a
child, it would have to be the Christmas plays me and my sister put on for my
mum, dad and two nans, who would always stay with us for Christmas. We'd
rehearse and rehearse and then end up in hysterics and make everyone sit
through our recorder playing peppered with laughing fits and assurances that
'this time we will do it seriously!' Fun times. I also loved seeing some of the
weird and wonderful gifts my nan's were given from their elderly friends: a pin
up perm in a box, some rubber gloves, hair spray, and best of all, a straight
exchange of a Terry's Chocolate Orange... for another Terry's Chocolate Orange.
You couldn't make it up! Oh, and I swear Quality Streets and Roses tins were at
least twice the size in those days...
What is
your favourite Christmas food?
My nan's Christmas
pudding. Homemade, delicious and so very, very missed.
What is
your favourite Christmas song?
I love all of the
Christmas carols and I really miss that side of the festivities now we live in
Spain. I'm not so keen on the cheesy Christmas pop songs though. It's high time
someone released some better replacements!
What is
your favourite Christmas photo? Why?
My children's annual
snowy fake background photo from school. They always scrub up so well on the
day, despite the lack of school uniform (we live in Spain) and it's a cute,
festive touch which momentarily makes me pine for home and all things British
and Christmassy!
