My name is Mia, I live with my husband near Copenhagen in Denmark. I don't have any kids, but I do have a cat :D His name is Misling, he is old, large and grumpy and I love him very much.

Animals: Cats!!!!!!!!!!, owls, foxes, squirrels, dolphins, ravens, crows, mice, dragonflies. (actually I love all animals (but monkeys scare me), some people have the oppinion that I seem to value the life of an animal higher the life of a human and sometimes thats true... as twisted as it might be)

HYR - Halloween Idea Book - Round 1
Thank you for the wonderful ideas and really very yummy looking pumpkin bites. The lanterns look like a lot of fun and relatively easy to make. Anna
She ran away a little while ago. :-( I'm replacing her with Clippy, since he seems to have been stomped into obedience. He isn't trying to crawl away anymore, at least.
Do I rock because I'm having too much fun doing this, or just 'cause I'm doing it? ;-)
Please join the latest Dead Swappers swap. This time it's Waterhouse ATCs!
