Thanks for reading my profile. I think I am pretty easy to please but if you have any doubts or questions, please feel free to PM me. :=D

Reading is one of my favorite things to do ever since I learned how. I love cozy mysteries, especially British ones. Also read some sci-fi, chick-lit, historical fiction & just plain fiction. And I love non-fiction animal books. I'm not into vampire, horror or paranormal books - that stuff creeps me out! And I can only take romance books (unless they're more chick-litty) in small doses (LOL). I have an online wishlist I can point you to if you're interested!

I like a lot of different types of music - like classical, piano music of all sorts, Scott Joplin rags, 60's folk music, the Beatles, most rock, pop & jazz, mid-eastern, Spanish, Celtic, new-age, oldies. Not too crazy about rap, hip-hop, opera, heavy metal or country but I try to be open-minded!

I love Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music. My favorite drama of all time is Schindler's List. I'm also a Disney & Pixar fan.

I almost hate to admit it but I like a lot of the crazy "reality" shows on now. I watch American Idol and any show with dancing. And this is nerdy but I love game shows. Also watch home, garden, fashion, DIY & food shows frequently.

I like to do crafty stuff now and then and sometimes make book strings. I also play around with making jewelry. I enjoy making ATCs and appreciate anything I can use to make them. It takes me a while to get into a craft - I have tried matchboxes and whimsey jars and do keep my eye out for something new to try once in a while.

I work full-time and also volunteer dog-walk at a local animal shelter (I love animals, especially dogs). I try to do some reading, dancing (although not much lately) and gardening in my spare time. I also love to travel and wish I had more time and money to see the world. :=D

I love: Food: almost anything but nothing too spicy and please, no raisins. Love most coffees including flavored coffees & cappuccino-type mixes. Love most teas although I prefer black teas over green or herbal. Love fruity teas. Don't like licorice/anise tea or anything heavily cinnamon. I also love hot cider and hot chocolate.

Candy: love anything chocolate. Fond of tropical fruit flavored Lifesavers. Don't care for gummy or sour candies.

Colors: blues and greens

Girly stuff: light flowery scents but nothing too fruity, charm or beaded bracelets, kind of have an obsession with lip gloss. Have pierced ears & like small, delicate-looking earrings.

Playthings: hmmm... like jigsaw puzzles when in the mood, trivia games but can never get anyone to play with me, crossword puzzles, word games.

Other:
Would love to receive glitter gel pens, fancy brads, pertty papers, unusual looking ribbons, embellishments to use on ATCs, stickers, small pieces of fabric, large beads, double-sided craft tape, ATC blanks & backs, address labels.

I like things with flowers and/or dragonflies, garden or nature themes, dog-related items, Disney, dance-related items, handmade bookmarks, fun socks and miniature sizes of things (not dollhouse stuff, just little things).
