I am a baby wearing, cloth diapering, stay at home mom. I hate to buy anything I can make. I make my own soap, laundry detergent, baby wipes, baby food, clothes, and anything else I think I can. I love love love to save a buck. That is just one more dollar I have to spend on Etsy.

Look forward to swapping with you!

I'll mail my swap. If I don't... I'm in the hospital. Seriously though, I know that life happens. I am not going to give you a crap rating if it is late and you let me know it was going to be late.

It's called life. We've all got one. Do me the courtesy of keeping in touch and we will be awesome! After all it is a swap... not a kidney transplant.

Dude. I love music. I love everything from Folk Revival to 80's Pop. I really love to hear something I've never heard. I am totally into Mumford and Sons right now because they are amazing. I listen to pop, country, classic rock, emo, anything piano. I just like a good tune.

Know what goes nice with good music? Tea.

Random is ALWAYS appreciated.

I'm a sci-fi/fantasy chick with fantasy leanings. I love it. Maybe I am an escapist...

David Eddings, Anne McCaffery, Terry Pratchett, Terry Brooks, Charlaine Harris

i love them all...

I also enjoy a good trashy romance and the occasional beach novel. Not as much commitment required... :o)

There is nothing like curling up with a good book and a cup of tea.

My favorite TV Show? Easy. Firefly.

Movies are fabulous unless they are horror movies. Horror movies should be microwaved. I love Dr. Who, Glee, Eureka, Law & Order (all of them), The Graham Norton Show, Torchwood, Lie to Me... the list goes on... I'm a little addicted...

If you ever watched a TV show called The Good Life.... it is one of my all time favorites.

Guilty Pleasures: Dawson's Creek, The O.C.

I am also a little anime addict. Fruits Basket, Kenshin, Ai Yori Aoshi, Cowboy Bebop, Big O, Bleach, Ah! My Goddess, etc etc etc

I sew.
I crochet.
I scrapbook.
I make soap.
I knit but not well.
I cook.
I take photographs.

I do all of these things while drinking tea.

Tiny things... especially erasers... don't know why.

Goddess imagery... ATC's, bookmarks, dolls, etc
Anything with trees is nice as well...
Fabric Scrappies... (at least large enough for a Dotee!)

I looove these things. I don't dislike much though. If you made it and you were glad to be making it... I'm going to love it.

My husband is a dear. He teaches English at a college in TX and is my best friend. He plays guitar and writes beautifully. He ALSO enjoys a cup of tea.

My Pumpkin Pie is a red-haired, green eyed, ginger kid just like her momma. She is eight months old, wearing 6-9 mo clothes and 12 month socks. (she did not get that from my size 6 1/2 feet.)

We have two cats. They are our fur babies.

That's all of us. We are a motley crew!

May the road rise up to meet you.
