I am a Canadian (Newfoundland), married to an American (Otto, of Dutch heritage), living in Wisconsin, USA. I work part-time at our own company.. share our home with my in-laws and one daughter... have 2 other kids & have 5 grandkids -I don't see them often enough.

Whenever I can, I travel with my husband on his business trips so have been in all but about 6 US states and been to all the Canadian Provinces. The country I most want to visit is Scotland and hope to soon! I also get back to Newfoundland once a year to visit my family.

Favorite Music

Favorite Music - almost anything pre-90's! Old Country 70's Romantic Gospel/Worship Classical Instrumental

Also love audio books - when I'm travelling and working on things in my craftroom.

Favorite Books

My Bible! Historical Fiction Suspence/Mystery Craft themed Biographies Quilting & Knitting Books Cookbooks - yes, I read them!

Hi Gail :D I'm your partner from Profile Comment Swap. You are 30 years elder than me and lives a wonderful life! :D I can hardly imagine what will I be doing and where I will be at this age. And here is a lovely example for me =) (Oh, hope you don't mind I start with this topic! I live with my grandma but since she is illiterate, I can hardly know her like you write about it. You also have a bright smile :) ) My favorite colors are also green and purple. They look magical and whimsical together as I use them on the same painting. I also love raspberry but never taste something like raspberry hot chocolate! That'd be something wonderful to try <3. I'm confused by "black licorice candy" so I googled it. :P It looks so cool-- I don't think my country has this kind of candy! (I'm from Taiwan.) How does it taste? Sweet or bitter, chewy or very hard? (I'm so curious :P) This swap offers me a nice opportunity to see a page of somebody's awesome life. And I really enjoyed it. I wish you a great day today as I do feel now =D witchyblossom
