Update 5/2011
I was an obsessed swapper for several years, stopped after having completed my 500th swap! Now I just lurk a bit.
Middle-aged mama, young adult son. Love my job ( health care) but wish I could retire and do crafts all day! I hate housekeeping. My house is always a disaster. I've learned to make peace with dog hair dust bunnies, but NOT with the clutter.
I believe in thinking outside the box, promoting world peace through being kind to those around us, and I love people who are a little quirky and eccentric.
I love dark chocolate, hazelnuts and almonds, and high quality tea.
combinations of reds/ oranges/ golds/ black
Not a fan of primary colors or pastels.
Knitting is my passion, but I have an overuse nerve injury from doing it too much, so now I am spinning my own yarn.
Also I like to work in Polymer clay (textures and colors. I want to learn how to make japanese- style lanterns/lamp shades from papers and polymer clay.
Don't watch much TV.
Movies: Quirky indie movies are my favorites. Have a Netflix queue of 200+ movies!
Books: I listen to audio books from Audible.com on my little mp3 player. My favorites are stories about other cultures. For a while I was on a binge of novels and memoirs about China and India; now I'm on a binge of 18th century historical stuff ( John Adams, Tale of Two cities). I think I'm a cultural anthropologist at heart!
Music: eclectic, from opera/choral music to electric blues to contemporary folk. Leonard Cohen, Swell Season, Martha Wainwright, Norah Jones, KT Tunstall.

Hey there! I saw in the forums that you were looking for handmade envelopes. I make them, didn't know if you were interested in a trade of any kind? :)
Thank you for the wonderful teas you sent me for the More Tea for Me WTA #1. The Mango tea looks especially interesting! It was so nice to receive such unusual teas, too.
It's always been nice swapping with you and I'll be sorry to see you leave Swap-bot. I'm on Ravelry too, though, so maybe we'll bump into each other there. Thanks again for all the great tea!
