About Me

I have been married for 15 years and have 2 children, a girl age 13 who is into the Twilight series, and a boy age 11 who is into wrestling. My husband collects any type of unusual lighters. I like to garden and spend time outdoors in the warm months. I keep very involved with my family and friends and enjoy writing letters, crafting and playing on the computer. I like to cook and try new recipes. We enjoy camping also. I love stationery, labels and pens. I like Elvis, Rolling Stones, Bon Jovi, M&M characters and merchandise, anything cooking related, anything unusual or different,etc. There's not much I don't like! I love to bargain shop,and dollar store and craft shopping, magazines,tea with caffiene (not coffee), cats, snowmen, Halloween & Christmas, summer and hot weather, hand lotions, lip balm, cool websites, sunflowers for my kitchen, retro, food, nuts, chips & dips, and anything handmade or homemade. I love anything different and unusual, "off the wall" and out of the ordinary! I don't have a favorite color-love them all! I do prefer bold, earthy, bright colors over pastel colors.

Favorite Music

I like many kinds of music, but I especially like classic rock, oldies and the older disco music.

Favorite Movies

I don't have a favorite movie, but like to watch comedy and dramas. I usually don't care for action-packed movies. I also like mysteries, thrillers, and horror.

Favorite Television

Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Dancing with the Stars, The View, and Ellen.

Favorite Crafts

I love simple and general crafts.I like to go to craft and stationery sites on the computer. I like to make computer and paper crafts. I like to print stationery, address labels, enclosures, cards etc. I'll try almost any craft. I love to crochet. I like "off the wall" crafts.

Comment: Barbara, here was another gorgeously prepared parcel from you! I absolutely loved everything. I can't wait to make the lemon bread, and use the bubble bath (so kind of you to find my favorite brand!). A teacher also can never have too many paper clips, and these ones are adorable! Thanks again for being such an amazing monthly host and swap partner!! *hugs* Catherine
Response: I was so excited to find the bubble bath for you. I had never heard of it. I had to ask the clerk if they carried it because I couldn't find "Philosophy" on the bottles! I fell in love with the paper clips myself. Thanks for the rating and heart and I'm so glad you liked it all.

Comment: Wow - What a creative interpretation of Altered CD. I absolutely LOVE the Elvis Teddy Bear:-) and I put a magnet on the Chihauhau and put it on the Fridge. It is the exact same color as my Triscuit. Thank you so much. Extra hearts from the heart.
Response: Glad I took a good guess on the color of the Chihauhau! I'm so glad you liked them. I asked you so many questions about this swap because I had this all in mind. Glad I went with these ideas and that you liked them!

Comment: Thank you for the 70's theme items. I enjoyed seeing all the things. It brings back memories! I liked looking at the book. When I was a kid I thought, "When I grow up, I want to drive a VW Bug and be a cashier."
Response: I'm glad you finally got it! Thanks for the rating!

Hey! Glad you liked the mini packages. And yes I did make the jewelry, I hope it suites your taste. I thought that was an interesting way to interpret "crafts". Did you notice there was a white envelope taped to the front of the bubble mailer?

LittleGreenSnail on Oct 12, 2009:

Hey! I'm your partner for the Mini Theme Lucky Parcel swap...I got them almost completely finished over the weekend and am now going to put all the special touches on them! Can't wait to send them your way!!
