Website: My website is my blog, it has the things I have been doing, crafting and lots of recipes. I don't put up a recipe if I don't like it.

NOTE: I am carrying a shoulder injury that is very restrictive at the moment. I am in the process of healing and hoping to be back to writing and crafting soon. So I will be taking a break for a while. Will continue sending PC to my PC buddies but the writing may be a little messy. 05/04/2013

Hello! My name is Lisa and I am in Far North Queensland, Australia. I have grown up in the region with the rainforest, bush and ocean inspiring me through out my life.

I am now however enjoying making and creating plushies, cross stitching and cooking. I do the less traditional cross stitch patterns, see flicker. But am looking for interesting patterns.

I would also like to start finding pc pals from all over the world, I currently have pals in Germany, Japan and America. I cannot wait to add more locations to my listI am very laid back and love seeing new ideas.

I will do private trades and am more than happy to set them up however, at this point recipes and pcs are my focus.

Softies- patterns, projects, stickers

Blank cards

Pokemon- I never grew up

Painting, Sketching

Cook Books, recipes, blank recipe cards, unusual cookie cutters (e.g. ninja, bats etc)

Non Raters

None

D'Argo: He is my first non stray kitty ever. He is clumsy, over ambitious and generally lands head first. I have never seen a cat face plant so many time. He loves cuddles and just being near people. The one thing he loves more then cuddles is food.

Delenn: Had a rough start to life, she was born as a feral cat. At 2 weeks she was saved from a dog attack, the rest of the litter did not make it. Now though she is queen of the castle. She loves following you around the house and being just nearby, every now and again we are given the 'honour' of patting her. But she is quirky and has a wicked sense of humour. Our electrician and plumber have warnings written out about her...
