Just here for fun! I had an account about 13 years ago in college and really enjoyed it -- happy to be back! I’m under the process of “merging” my old and current profile. My username is indicative of one of my favorite treats from Trader Joe's. My favorite color is green. I love being outdoors -- mainly hiking and visiting National Parks. I'm a millennial through and through with a strong nostalgia for childhood memories from the 90's -- Lisa Frank, Hello Kitty, Ghibli films, etc.

I am a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom to two boys. My husband is active duty Navy, so we move around a lot! Currently in Virginia, but we were up and down the west coast for the past decade. Hoping to go back to Japan one day! :)

First and foremost, Taylor Swift (duh). My husband and I love collecting vinyl — we have quite an eclectic collection. We are still big early 2000’s emo kids at heart.

Reading is one of my favorite hobbies. I love cozy fantasies and romance novels. YA graphic novels are a fun go-to if I’m in a reading slump. Emily Henry is a fun author to read — I love her characters and sense of humor.

I love period pieces -- Sanditon, Bridgerton, etc. New Girl and other light hearted comedies. I also love watching various anime — Fruits Basket is always a favorite. The 2019 adaptation of Little Women is my comfort film.

I love to dabble and try new things. Really anything cute and fun! Share your interests with me — open my eyes!

Please get in touch if you do not receive an assigned swap from me. I know mail service is not 100% reliable, but I always want to make it up if a swap of mine gets lost in the mix! If I went overboard and postage is due -- let me know. I do my best, but we are all human!

Also — I always rate the same day I receive. If you do not have a rating from me, I haven’t received the swap yet. I am very understanding (this should be fun, it’s not that deep!), so if you are late and need more time just let me know! Thanks!
