My Twitter friend Lana tweeted the other night that she was writing a list of 30 things to do before she turns 30 in November. Since I’m turning 40 in November, I thought this sounded like a great challenge. Thanks for the inspiration Lana! Her blog is here.
Each time I achieve one of my goals, I’ll blog about it. If I don’t achieve them, I’ll blog about that too. Here it is, my 40 b4 40.

You’re going to be busy
forty is the new thirty, so if you achieve thirty from your very worthy list you’ll be doing well . Good luck !!
Yes I think if you get 30 done you will be doing well but knowing you,(so much like me.. determined) you will go for the whole lot!! Go Bebe!! xx
Hey, it was great meeting you in Wellington. In the taxi in Sydney going home looking at your blog on my iPad (of course)! Love your noble ambition to bake a cake and a 3 course meal. Can so relate!
