About Me

~~~NEW ADDITION: The address in my profile is perfect for letters and postcards and small-envelope type mailings but If you are SENDING ME A PACKAGE I have a different address to send to so please message me. I'll also leave a note in the Swap comments in those instances. I really wish Swap-Bot would let you choose your address for each swap, but this will have to work for now. THANK YOU!!!~~~

Hi my name is Danielle and I love getting stuff in the mail! ("Hi Danielle") I currently live in the Jersey ghetto, right next door to NYC and although I love it, I'm also homesick for my Midwest home. So I feel loved when I get mail :)

I'm originally from Marquette in Michigan's U.P. (Upper Peninsula); grew up in lower Michigan between Flint and Detroit; and lived my early adult life in Indiana. It was always my dream to live in NYC, and now here I am :)

I may be newish to this site but I've been penpaling and swapping packages with friends and family all over the world for years and I will never flake on you!

I'm completely obsessed with animals and I have a dog and 2 cats of my own....but if I could I'd most literally have 20 more! The only animal that will never be my friend is the mouse. I've had way too many rodent roommates and I will never have a long term relationship with another mouse. ( if I say it enough they won't come back, right?)

For those of you allergic to animals, no worries because I pack my envelopes/packages in a place where they don't go. I apologize in advance if a stray hair makes it in your package :(

Favorite Music

I love music and I'm totally obsessed with my iPod and iPhone. Ob-sessed!! Some of my favorites are:

A little mix: Madonna,Jason Mraz, 80s Hair Bands, Rihanna, Michael Jackson, Garth Brooks, Kanye, Bon Jovi, Gwen Stefani, Will Smith, Kenny Chesney, New Kids on the Block (Yeah that's right...how's that for a 90s throwback?!)

Favorite Television

How I Met Your Mother, The Office, Lost, Dexter, Big Love, Chuck, So You Think You Can Dance, Laverne & Shirley, Three's Company, Fringe, General Hospital, Top Chef, CSI, Just about anything on Food Network or GSN

Favorite Movies

Office Space, Old School, Anchorman, Ocean's 11, White Christmas, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Pursuit of Happiness, Aladdin, Sweet Home Alabama, Walk the Line, White Christmas, Wizard if Oz, Can't Buy Me Love, Can't Hardly Wait, Dirty Dancing, The Departed, Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, anything Audrey Hepburn...sooo many more...Netflix loves me!

Cooking...and working out

Although I don't do it as much as I'd like, I love cooking!!! And I'm also totally into finding new recipes...especially healthy, easy recipes. I mean, I want to get fit and exercise but I don't. So I need more motivation there. Anyone want to buy me an eliptical? How about a Wii and a Wii Fit? ;)

Actually, if anyone lives in Jersey City/NYC and wants to be exercise buddies, I'm in the market! I don't currently workout, and I totally need to start...but I'm a complete novice!

Craft Love

I am super crafty but I rarely get time to craft! I have a HUGE craft closet in NJ and even more in storage. Right now I'm into embroidery and knitting but I also like making soap. I'm totally obsessed with finding embroidery, knitting and misc craft patterns online. And I love browsing blogs to see what everyone else is up to.

I used to keep a blog of my own but I've lost motivation...so anything you can do to motivate me would be awesome :)

Wishlist!

Here's a "short list" of stuff I would like to get, but I'm totally easy to please!

My Wishlist:

  • Crafting patterns (eg knitting or embroidery) and other crafting ideas
  • Easy recipes to make for 2 people
  • Tips on great websites...doesn't have to be craft related
  • Return address labels...with my address on them (with a cute picture like a cupcake or owl, etc)
  • Teas...I'm recently addictted to really good teas (have you ever tried Adagio.com??? Yumm!)
  • Homemade (or store bought) dog treats
  • Cat toys
  • Random envelopes filled with stuff :)
  • iTunes gift cards
  • Anything raspberry flavored (candy, gum, etc)
  • Dark chocolate (I LOVE raspberry-flavored dark chocolate covered almonds!!)
  • Speaking of chocolate...if you send me chocolate covered sunflower seeds you will get triple hearts from me!
  • Anything cinnamon flavored (my favorite coffee is Dunkin Donuts with cinnamon flavor mixed in)
  • Oooh speaking of cinnamon, I love the Yankee Candle Cinnamon Red Hots scent. I also love their Green Apple scents! I really love scented candles!
  • Cupcake Cafe vanilla cupcakes with vanilla frosting...it's a NYC bakery and these cupcakes are to-die-for!!!!
  • Dunkin Donuts coffee
  • Popcorn...especially white cheddar and Chicago Mix
  • Unique jewelry (I also love very simple, delicate necklaces AND big, chunky, trendy necklaces!)
  • Gum...I love trying new flavors
  • Just about anything from ETSY
  • Mix CDs of your favorite music
  • Light pink/natural lip glosses
  • Mint Carmex (it's kinda hard to find so I you send me a tube I'll be your forever friend!)
  • iTunes gift certificates (I'm addicted)
  • CE Bigelow peppermint & lightly tinted lip balm from Bath & Body Works
  • Solid perfume or roll-on perfumes (I like light-everyday scents...I gravitate towards soft florals but I also like tuberose, and light sugary scents
  • Benefit Touch Me and Try to Leave Me Lotion

AND if anyone wants to sell their used Wii, I'm your lady!!!!!

Dislikes

Ok this will really be a short list. I'll add more if/when I think of things.

  • Chai tea
  • Popcorn flavored jellybeans
  • Raspberry scented lotions...as much as I love the taste of raspberry, I over used the lotion in college and now I can't stand the smell
  • Anything vanilla scented (same story as the raspberry)
  • Musk scents
  • Glittery or sparkley makeup/lip glosses (it looks silly on anyone my age!)
  • Toe socks (I don't like separating my toes...but I love flip flops!)

Comment: I had no problem with you sending a bit late, I actually thought it was nice of you to pm me about it, anyhow the swap should have arrived by now - so I guess you just marked sent and flaked. I will be happy to re-rate if this swap should ever arrive.

Comment: You have a perfect rating, and I am not going to spoil it over a small potatoes swap! However, your envelope came 95 cents postage due because it did not machine cancel. The stamped notice read "rigid, nonrectangular or not uniformly thick mail pieces are charged parcel rates." The Post Office counter person told me the same thing about my envelopes, so I had to open them, repack and resend - I know the problem!

I am sorry but I will be removing you from the Nuts For Sewing Group for not maintaining a 4.9 rating. And for flaking.

doublesided on Mar 26, 2010:

I am now dropping you from the Inchie Love Group due to the fact you failed to complete your swaps for the group. If you ever make this up then please feel free to reapply to the group.

LisaD78745 on Mar 18, 2010:

I hope you enjoyed the package I sent. If you don't plan to fulfill your end of the swap, you should at least return what was sent to you... flake

candigirl on Mar 18, 2010:

TO ALL FLAKED PARTNERS..PLEASE READ THIS...I received an email from Danielle, and she claims that "something came up " in her life, and she will be unable to fulfill her swaps. She made it very clear that her intention is to flake on the rest of her swaps, so if you haven't received, I would suggest looking for angels now...she is NOT going to send you anything. Period.

candigirl on Mar 16, 2010:

Well, it looks like you are on the fast road to being suspended for flaking..you now have 2 ratings of 1, and mine will make three, in a few days.

I really hope you log in and make this right...it's not fair to your partners...and you still have at least 4 more partners who will be rating you, based on the number of swaps you are still in...!

candigirl on Mar 14, 2010:

Danielle, I see that you haven't marked "sent" yet for the "Lip Balm Swap #3" swap..I am your partner, and the send-by date was yesterday..it looks as though you haven't been logging on since Feb. 27, and you now have a "1" rating (very recent), so I am hoping and praying you aren't going to flake on me...

Please get in touch and let me know what's up with you, ok?? thanks...

amuhleisen on Mar 8, 2010:

Just wondering if you received my package for the love and collections swap. I sent several weeks ago. I noticed you haven't logged in since February 27th and haven't selected sent for your partner. Keep in touch please!

stonefemmeblues on Jan 17, 2010:

Hello! You are my partner in the Broke Folks swap. I currently live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan in Munising, about 50 miles away from Marquette. I just moved here less than a year ago, and I thought it was a quirky coincidence that you lived here too at one time! :)
