Here it goes.
My first EVER attempt at trying to be witty, internet savvy and a complete and utter blog genius. I'll let you know how this voyage pans out, but in the mean time I will just celebrate my venture into technology with my introductory post on... well, I'm not quite sure.
If you haven't quite grasped from my opening statement, I am pretty new to all of this. I've read blogs, I even have friends that make them.... but I have never managed to make that leap myself. I've always admired how all these amazingly cool people who live in unimaginable urban-chic homes can write about pointless yet exciting things like socks for dogs or banana-peanut-butter-chicken-soy-milkshakes (minus the milk). I may have made that last one up, but you get the idea.
It was my housemate who actually pushed me into doing this.... she will be held solely responsible if this all goes horribly wrong...
I suppose that's where my story begins... how this ol'beauty came to be in the first place. So, for my first post (I dedicate it to that companion of mine who started this whole thing off) I will explain why I decided to name myself after the comfiest yet probably most impractical footwear available.
Knitted Wellies <3
Right. It makes no sense and is a quirky, hipster (whatever that is?) sort of name, but I promise that all will become clear if you can bare to carry on reading this scribble.
First of all, I like knitting. Obvious? Yes. My other friend (yes I have more than one) recently taught me the most basic of basics when it comes to knitting, I had never done it before. But I can't stop, it's like when you dip your spoon into a nutella jar. Just once isn't enough. I AM HOOKED!!
But why is it in the name? Well...
The evil genius that started all of this was telling me how she encouraged her friend to create a blog, simply named Green Jumper... because she likes green jumpers. LOVE IT!!
I think it's becoming pretty clear, to those who are smarter than the average bear, that I 'may' have taken inspiration from said friend. Green being one of my favourite colours, knitting being one of my favourite hobbies. Combined with hunger and the need to choose a name urgently.... TA DA!!!
Alas, those of you who were brave enough to read up until this point, I salute you! Now, there is not much more to say except that I would personally like to thank those of you who are willing to join me on my adventure that will involve ramblings, recipes, stories and general tomfoolery.
So, here we go...
