My name is Maria Simon. I'm a mother of two grandmother of two. I heard about swapping from my daughter ("dimanche") who is also a member of this site. She gets so much great stuff in the mail that I decided to try it too! I don't really use the Internet so she helps me out a lot.

My favorite color is pink. I collect heart shaped things, mugs, and tins.

I enjoy cooking, baking, doing crossword puzzles, reading (esp. Danielle Steel and Sylvia Browne), watching movies, going to restaurants, and decorating my house for all seasons. I especially love decorating the Christmas tree!

I have a big garden in the summer and grow flowers, tomatoes, and other veggies. I like to decorate my yard with windchimes, little flags and statues. I enjoy reading gardening magazines- they give me inspiration for my next projects!

I love spending time with my two grandkids Jill and Zach, and my pet dog, Prince.

Bruce Springsteen is my favorite! I also like Green Day, INXS, Aerosmith, Pink Floyd, Rod Stewart and other classic rock, and Christmas Music.

I love Gone With the Wind, the Godfather, Sophie's Choice, Gangs of New York, Forrest Gump, and more. I love going to the movies when I get the chance.

CSI (especially CSI: New York), Survivor, All My Children, Dallas, Dark Shadows, game shows, Food Network, Regis and Kelly, the Soup
