About Me

I will always send my swaps on time ( though I may wait till the last minute to click the link "sent" since sometimes I get caught up in my day to day.....but that's why I love that Swap Bot reminder email, so when I do forget to push link it lets me know !)

If you don't get my swap from me (because let;s be honest, the Postal Service can be a bit of a scumbag sometimes), please send me a message before giving me a bad rating ! I keep all receipts and tracking #'s


I'm constantly told, that I am a person who has may sides and layers ( I think they're right)

LIKES: Pretty colored pens, Pretty Tape ( Washi and Lace) , Hello Kitty, The smell of fresh laundry.

I'm a Tea Purist ( whole leaves , not those fanning crumbs in a Lipton Tea Bag, lol) , but I do still drink tea from the teabag :) . Live for Black Tea ( my favorite is Earl Grey and Vanilla Chai), but I HATE FRUIT TEAS AND CAMOMILE. I DO HAVE ENOUGHT TEA KNOW TO LAST ME YEARS THOUGH, SO NO MORE TEA SWAPS FOR ME RIGHT NOW, LOL

I love a good beverage, especially unique soda flavors like those from the Boylan Bottling Company ( Shirley Temple or any from the Mash Brand) as well as the San Pellagrino's Blood Orange

I love chocolate especially different kinds that I have never had before from other regions or a small unknown chocolatier. I like Hazelnut chocolate as well. ( though Lindts Peanut Butter truffles ranks one of my top favs) Milk Chocolate is my favorite and I detest dark chocolate ( it makes me sad faced, no bueno) I especially love sour thing candy. I love sour gummies but am always on the hunt for something different.

My Favorite color is gold, with turquoise being a close second. I love metallic's, especially matte metallic.Though I have been known to indulge in rich plums, corals and deep pinks.

I love to bake , but not cook ( I' know its weird).. I love desserts, especially chewy cookies or recipes that include cream cheese.

Not really big on ATC's ( sorry, no offense, just not my thing)

Love anything "Fresh Scent" aka Clean Cotton or Downy Scent. Best is smelling the laundry after it comes out of the dryer!!! Also love citrus clean scents like Grapefruit.

Favorite Books

I love a good cookbook, especially if they have pictures of the finished product and bonus if they have pictures in the step-by-step process.

I collect vintage cook books. My favorite vintage cookbook that I finally tracked down is "Candy Recipes & Other Confections" by Mary B Van Arsdale and Ruth Parrish printed in 1949 ( you cannot even begin the imagine the recipes they have in there!

Though I read a variety of things I do like J.R Ward, Shelley Laurenston, Madeline Sheehan and Christine Feehan

Favorite Television

I have been known to watch a variety of things. I can go from watching the History Channel to the Style channel in a minute.

FOODIE IN ME: I love Anthony Bourdain ( sad faced when "No Reservations" ended) as I have always follow that motto "Be a traveler , not a tourist". Snack-Off is my new favorite as it reminds me of my college days cooking Ramen in a hot pot, lol. I also like Alton Brown as he teaches you the science behind food. AND lets not forget Sandra Lee, who does that "Semi-Home Cooking" niche so well ( and also she has a cocktail for every meal, who doesn't like that!)

DRAMA QUEEN IN ME: Walking Dead, Law & Order: SVU, Nashville, Misfits, Outlander, American Horror Story, Sons of Anarchy

COMEDIAN IN ME: Family Guy, Futurama, Bobs Burgers, The Fairly Odd Parents & My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic ( they may be kids shows, but they are hilarious)

GEEK IN ME: Game of Thrones, Stark Trek: Next Generation, Buffy the Vampire Slayer,

Favorite Movies

I love movies, and watch all kinds and in all languages . I can sit in a movie theater all day or stay home and watch back to back movies.

Some of my favorites are City of God, Perfume, Pride and Prejudice ( ironically the Keira Knightly version is the best one I have seen, as I am not a big fan of hers) ,Galaxy Quest, Old Boy, Anchorman:The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Bridesmaids, Battle Royale, Warriors and the British PBS Period movies like North and South.

Swappies

I will always send my swaps on time ( though I may wait till the last minute to click the link "sent" since sometimes I get caught up in my day to day.....but that's why I love that Swap Bot reminder email, so when I do forget to push link it lets me know !)
