I live in the country with my husband and a variety of cats and dogs. My hobbies Include knitting, crocheting, painting.

I have 3 grandkids; ages 6,2 and 6 mos.

I work in an office during the week so Swap-bot and crafting help me unwind.

I love my dogs...Lucy, Kaiser and Tibby.

My favorite books are thrillers and fantasy type books. My favorite authors are: John Grisham, Dan Brown, James Patterson. My favorite books are the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and The Hobbit. I also like Harry Potter and own all the books. I've been trying to read the books listed in "1001 books you must read before you die" I've recently discovered audio books and have quite a collection.

Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Old Black and White movies.

I enjoy knitting and crocheting the most. I’ve started learning to paint with watercolors and am loving it.

I love dogs and collect dog stuff, particularly Doberman Pinscher and German Shepherd.

Postcards: Store bought or hand made. Sent naked. I like most anything but especially touristy cards and night time cityscapes and winter scenes.

Inchies, moo cards, house shaped ATC's, dottee dolls.

I collect altered letter B's. I have a wall that is covered in B's...I could always use more! Also, any thing with my name on it!

APC's (Altered Playing Cards): These are my current favorite thing in whole world. I am working on a bunch of decks, trying to collect all 52 cards in a particular theme. I'm currently collecting:
Dogs
Circus
Harry Potter
Dragons
Whimsical
Birds
Disney Movies
Pink (the color) Artist's Choice......in case none of the themes appeal to you.

My favorite foods are salty snacks. Sunflower seeds (salted but not flavored) are a favorite! Chips and Salsa are a close second!

Mexican food is one of my favorite foods. Luckily, there are lots of mexican restaurants here in California! I'm always looking for the perfect Hot Salsa recipe...I haven't found it yet.

I’ve recently become a tea addict. I enjoy trying all kinds of new teas. So far my favorite flavors are mint, chai and citrus flavored.
