About Me

I have two small boys. I work part-time in New York City. I like scrapbooking, classical music, and drinking tea (black, not herbal). I like to spend time one-on-one with friends, especially going out to lunch or dinner.

Favorite Music

Classical piano music (Mozart, Chopin, Brahms) Broadway shows (Les Miserables). I got an iPod for Christmas, so I've been trying to expand my music collection via iTunes. I would love, love, love to get some mix CD's of something new (not classical or showtunes)!

Favorite Movies

All-time favorites: Sound of Music, Dead Poets' Society. Generally, chick-flicks, some historical movies like Saving Private Ryan.

Favorite Television

Top Chef, Top Design, Ugly Betty. Anything on TLC.

Favorite Crafts

I love scrapbooking and try to attend crops as often as I can. Lately I've been doing mostly 8x8 albums. I can always use anything related to kids, preschool, holidays, swimming, etc. I have tons of stickers, though, so please don't send any more.

I like card making/rubber stamping, too. I love all types of ribbons. I'm just starting to get into "altered" items like tins and books.

I've also started knitting more recently. My church has a knitting group that makes items like blankets and hats for people who come to the local soup kitchen. I can always use washable yarn and any size needles.

Other stuff I like...

I just discovered bento boxes, so I would LOVE to get anything bento...accessories, small sauce containers, etc.

I would also love to receive: -wax tarts, especially the Yankee Candle ones. (Any scent except vanilla)

-mix CDs...any type of music, whatever you've been listening to lately.

-any type of 'zine, especially recipe 'zines.

  • I've never done a matchbox swap, but I would love to receive one.

Comment: HI Mary, I received your package today. Thank you very much! We don't have hot choclate in lots of differents tastes here so I'm really curious :) Thanks for the ribbons too, I had almost none and since I saw swap-bot I've gotten some to chose from :) At first I wasn't sure if the Chapstick was lipbalm or glue but when I opened it I smelled it was lip balm. Thanks! I added that to my profile because I like differnent favours and brands of them ;)I know the gel pens where in the swap requirements but I really liked them a lot because it also shows you read my profile ;) That's why you are getting a heart!
Response: Great! I'm glad you like the pens. Thanks for the heart.
