Behind the Blogger – 30 Things You Didn’t Know About Me!

If you didn’t already know my name is Charlotte and I’ve been writing on my blog NOTSOBASICLONDON for the last 3 years.  While these pages are mostly filled with food and my love for it (Let’s keep it that way!), I thought it was about time you got to know a bit more about the person behind the screen – both food and non-food related! Then we can get back to the important stuff you know … like pizza and pancakes
