We have been most anonymous on this blog. We. Me. I have been using the royal We. Some people ask why. I started this blog years ago because I thought it was too mundane, simply just going to work. I didn't have anything else. No aim, nothing. It was a young thing, being aimless. It was that time in my twenties that all you really know was to work, I worked too hard. Whatever else happens, will happen and life should roll itself out. Yes, it seemed to work that way. Time is key in knowing what oneself wants to do. Anyway, the blog was born as a hobby.
This blog was something very different years ago. It was supposed to be an archive of sustainable ideas. Which, it still is. It is more of an archive of a broader spectrum now. It was increasingly difficult to maintain the blog to be a craft, DIY, knowledge based avenue on top of my busy job. The royal We was meant to be an entity. I thought that FF (Fidgety Fingers) would perhaps one day be a company, selling products or be an entity to teach about sustainability. But life happened so FF remains as a dream for now.
In my journey through life, I have realised sustainability doesn't related only to recycling and upcycling...etc. Anyway, that is another matter.
Being thrifty and then striving to learn how to make things and cook only came late in my life when I landed up in London. It is a harsh city that can be very unforgiving. And being the Singaporean who is so blessed with good weather, beautiful food and everything sunshine and at my disposal, London was the learning ground for everything from scratch. I learnt to cook, I learnt to count my pennies and strategise for the week. It wasn't easy but I made it.
So here it is. This is Fidgety Fingers. It is an archive of my journey through life, my constant education of anything that is sustainable in this world and age, ideas and thoughts, my crafts and nosh.
