About Me

I am Veronica. I am 32 years old, married mother of an 11 year old girl (this is going to be interesting in a couple of years) and a 9 year old boy (High functioning autistic and loves his legos. This one is already interesting enough, I hope he doesn't go rebel on me.) My day job is Customer Service in the gaming industry, but I would love to work from home doing something I don't like quite as much if I had to be honest.

Favorite Crafts

I started quilting when my daughter was born and stopped a couple of years ago to get into knitting. I just got back into quilting and am really surprised at how things have changed!

Favorite Music

I love just about anything on the radio. If I can bop my head along to the beat then so much the better. Grooveshark is my constant work companion. Top 4 on my list right now: All I Ever Wanted by Basshunter I Love You Came Too Late by Joe McIntyre I Gotta Feeling by Black Eyed Peas Under Pressure by Queen

Because I grew up at the right time, too, I have an ever enduring love for The New Kids On The Block. Go ahead and point and laugh. I will love them anyway.

The Killers, Gwen Stefani, AFI Red Hot Chili Peppers Grateful Dead, Bon Jovi Panic at the Disco Kelly Clarkson, Rihanna, KT Tunstall Nelly Furtado The Fray, Christina Aquilera, JoJo All-American Rejects, Pink, Fall Out Boy Goo Goo Dolls, My Chemical Romance Evanescence, Augustana, The Monkees Simon and Garfunkel, Creedence The Beatles, Harry Connick, Jr. Bowling For Soup, Barenaked Ladies

Favorite Books

My commute is roughly an hour each way on the days I work so I get to listen to TONS of audio books. Books by Jane Greene, Sophie Kinsella, Sue Grafton and anyone else I can find on the digital local library so I can download for free.

Favorite Movies

Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Goonies, 13 Going on 30, Win a Date with Tad Hamilton, Shawshank Redemption, The Wizard of Oz, Holiday Inn, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Beauty and the Beast, The Sound of Music, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, Forrest Gump, Elf, A Few Good Men, The Newsies, Midnight Madness, You've Got Mail, Batman Begins, The Incredibles, Pretty Woman, Finding Nemo, Toy Story 1 and 2, Monsters Inc., Back to the Future Trilogy, The Life of Brian, Stand By Me, Memphis Belle, Harvey, Groundhog Day, A Christmas Story, Pirates of the Caribbean, Sweet Home Alabama, 50 First Dates, The Holiday, Never Been Kissed, It's A Wonderful Life, Pirates Of Penzance, Harry Potter, Aladdin

Favorite Television

House, Numb3rs, Psych, Mythbusters, Project Runway, How I Met Your Mother, Doctor Who, Good Eats, Ace of Cakes, almost anything Food Network that doesn't involve Bobby Flay, Monk, Top Gear, America's Next Top Model

Comment: I had you for both the international version and the US versions of this swap! I got your packages today and wanted to say thanks for the noodles and extras. The ornage print is great! I've been collecting orange and tangerine fabrics lately. The florals are nice too, but I especially like the orange batik squares you included! Thanks again Veronica!

Comment: You spoiled me! I love the orange fabrics you sent! I can't wait to play with them! Thank you so much!
Response: YAY! I am SO glad you love it. The fabric told me you needed more than a fat quarter because it was lovely. I thought it was being pretentious, but it was right.
