After a short hiatus, we return to our Q&A series, starting off with the lovely <a href="http://morven-catsandrockingchairs.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Cats & Rocking Chairs</a> blogger Miss Morven Watson.</p> <p><strong>Can you describe yourself in five words?</strong><br/>Forgetful, Impatient, Excessive, Clumsy, Irreverent.</p> <p><strong>What’s in your fridge?</strong><br/>No ‘real’ food. About 5 Easter eggs and other desert orientated things. I usually have a fridge full of chocolate and maybe the odd tomato.</p> <p><strong>What’s been your biggest fashion disaster to date?</strong><br/>The fashion disasters are reoccurring…on an almost weekly basis. I don’t have to look far to see my last one, as it’s usually documented on my blog the week before. I’d like to refer to my recent ‘<a href="http://morven-catsandrockingchairs.blogspot.co.uk/search?updated-max=2012-03-28T00:51:00%2B01:00&max-results=10" target="_blank">cowboy</a>’ arrangement - camel jeans, open toe boots and a big hat. It sounds like it would work…but it just didn’t.</p> <p><strong>Who would be your dream dinner date?</strong><br/>Dim Sum with Lucian Freud!</p> <p><strong>Do you have a party trick?</strong><br/>I consider myself a cat whisperer. If the host has a cat…it WILL be in my arms in about 10 minutes.</p> <p>Read more <em>Take 5</em>’s <a href="http://electrique.frenchconnection.com/search/Take+5"
