Thank you for the tag @w-himsisims! <3
1. Origins of your blog name:
My old blog name was a different version of an old Instagram handle I had when I was 13… And I thought it was time for a change 😭 I wanted something cute and vintage-y, and my head went straight to lace. From there, the thought process was basically this: Lace —> Laced with —> Laced in sin —> Lacedwithsims!
2. My “I’ll always order this food”:
Pancakes. I cannot remember the last time I've gone out to brunch and not ordered pancakes.
It’s been 😭 for two years now. But 🙂↕️ has been rising up the ranks recently! Honorable mentions to 🤍, ✨ and 🫂!
4. Current comfort movie, show, book:
My comfort movie is Mamma Mia. Seeing this movie for the first time at age seven changed something in my brain and ever since then, I have come back to it every time I feel I need a hug in my life. Although I haven't watched in a few years (there was a time when I would watch it weekly), you will always find me singing the soundtrack either by myself or with my dad and eldest sister.
My comfort shows is Muumilaakson tarinoita (or Moomin in English). This is how you can tell I'm half-Finnish. I do a rewatch every year and I never grow tired of it. I cannot put into words how warm and fuzzy this show makes me feel. I love it so so much.
My comfort book is Pride and Prejudice. It's my most-read book for a reason and I will never tire of it. But a close second would be Anne of Green Gables. I still remember my mum reading it to me as a bedtime story when I was younger.
....I've been touring stateside, kissing my swedish boy over facetime! Who knew, opening up would make me a headline? BOOTS! That's my ego BOOST!!!
6. My current hyperfixation:
Okay, this changes weekly. At the time of writing this, it’s the crosswords and Bridgerton.
7. Oddly specific things that brings me joy:
Woolly socks!! I don't know how I would have survived this winter without them.
8. What smell makes me happy:
Strawberry, honey, syringa and the sea.
9. Something I did as a kid and still do:
Play the piano! I started playing when I was very young, but as a teenager I quit (I hated going to lessons). But now as an adult, I fallen back in love with playing! 🤍 I tried many different hobbies as a child, but this is the only one that has stuck with me!
10. Phone wallpaper right now:
It’s a picture of my sweet angel boy, Charlie, a few winters ago. We got him when I was nine years old and he passed away last summer. I just miss his cute little face.
11. Are you an early bird or a night owl:
I’ve become a proper early bird. I still dapple in night owl activities every now and then, but I truly do enjoy waking up early in the morning, drinking coffee, going to the gym and taking my time.
12. If you work, what is your profession and do you like it:
I work at a preschool! While my job definitely has its days where I want to quit and never look back, I genuinely can't imagine myself not working with children and teaching. It brings me such joy getting to see them grow and make them laugh.
I'm not tagging anyone in particular this time, but any of my mutuals feel free to do this because I would love learning more about you! <3
