I graduated culinary school, and am currently back in school for a degree in Hospitality Management I love being involved in my community and volunteering my time to help others. I have 2 small dogs named Souffle and Hobo. Souffle is 8 lbs and Hobo is a short overweight 20 lbs. :) I am very family orientated as well. I am very close to my family and they are very supportive of me and always help me to improve myself.

I love just about any kind of music. Country, hiphop, r&b, oldies, punk rock and more. I love singing and dancing along with it all.

Reading is a great past time that I enjoy. Just like with music I am versatile and have a wide variety of books. Books are a very interesting thing. I try to find some that are documentaries and real stories because we can sometimes relate to them. Kristin Hannah is my newest author that I'm in love with! Nicholas Sparks is another one of my favs. I would also like to read all the Harry potter books one day.

Book Wishlist
Have a little Faith, The Time Keeper, The first Phone call from Heaven- Mitch Albom.

I like to sew even though I don't have as much time as I used to but it is still one of my favorite things. I can crochet a little as well, trying to learn more and get better. Whenever I sew it let's me be very creative with any kind of fabric I want. I have made skirts, pants, purses, bags, pillows, pillow cases, aprons and more! I recently started acrylic painting and have fell in love with it. I never knew I could paint before.

I am a pinterest addict! I love this site for finding new ideas and crafts. I could be on there for hours at a time and not even realize it has been that long.

Television shows are what made me choose to do some of the things that I do. I love cooking shows, savory or pastries. Design and diy shows. I also like crime shows, criminal minds is my favorite.

I have the biggest variety of movies. I love dancing, singing movies or musicals. I have always loved Disney movies, lion king is the best, and Simba is my fav, they might be for little kids but they are classics. I have sports movies, exercise dvds, cooking movies, girly cheesy movies as well as more manly movies.

Anything with monkies!

My favorite baseball team is the St Louis Cardinals.

Pink is my favorite color, but I am open to all of them.

Solid colored mugs I can paint as well as any you might think I would like.

Thrift store finds!

I like drinking coffee and hot chocolate. I now have a keurig so I enjoy new kcups as well as carafe cups.

Candy and chocolate I love!

Coconut, coconut flavored things, peach flavored things,

Snakes, spiders, creepy things,

Within pampering swaps, I am very sensitive to smells. I get headaches alot with really strong smelling things. I like warmer smells and food smelling items better that fruity or tropical smeels.

Please do not send me stickers or paper things, i really have no use for them unless it is a full journal or recipe cards.

Did not want to have one of these.
