Over the years that I have been running (oohh 'running' sounds rather swish doesn't it?!) this little space of interweb, I have noticed a few questions pop up over and over. With that in mind, I have made this page especially for you, question asker! I hope it does answer your query, if not, feel free to drop me a line at louise.pentland@hotmail.co.uk.
YOUR QUESTIONS:
Is your Daughter's name really Baby Glitter?
No! I just call her Baby Glitter on here, my YouTube Channel and Twitter as a little nickname. I suppose when she is a bit older and no longer a baby, I will have to amend it to suit her better.
What do you do for a living?
After graduating from university, I felt a bit lost and so embarked on a thrilling journey called 'Six Hundred Boring Office Jobs'. Whilst boring, they paid rent/mortgage and I made some super chums along the way. When I fell pregnant with Baby Glitter, my then employer decided to end my contract (very nice of them considering I was 'with child' eh) and so I did a bit of temping.
Now Baby Glitter is here, I stay at home and be a Mummy and Wifey. I am currently setting up a business with a good chum of mine, so we shall wait and see if that takes off. Otherwise it's back on the boring office bandwagon for me!
What did you do at university?
I studied a Bsc (hons) in Psychology and Biology. I also studied shopping, bars, vodka, boys, cheese toasties and sleeping til noon.
Why do you have adverts on your blog?
I have commercial and private ads on my blog because I would like to earn a few pennies. I spend a lot of time, love, money and energy on Sprinkle of Glitter, so to make a few bob, I think, is alright. It doesn't pay the bills but it allows me to keep up my makeup addiction and buy Baby Glitter little treats.

What camera do you use?
From the first post to September 2011 I was using a cruddy old digital kodak that I bought in 2008 for £80. I have no idea what model it was or if you can even still purchase them. It was blurry 99% of the time and to take a good snap of anything I had to take a zillion and then pick out the good one.
Recently, I acquired a DSLR Canon EOS 350D from my Dad. It's very nice.
For YouTube videos, I used to use the Motion Eye Webcam on my laptop. As time went on, it slowly died and so now I use a camcorder. As I write this I don't have it to hand to see what model it is but I shall update when I do :)
Why wont you show your Husband in YouTube videos?
Matt isn't an 'on camera' kind of guy. There's nothing more to it than that really. I have BEGGED him to do the Husband Tag but he refuses. Sorry Sprinklerinos!
