Hi! I live in a tiny town outside of Seattle Washington. Living here feels like camping everyday. Every morning when I walk outside I think I should be having S'mores for breakfast!

I find I am full of contradictions when it comes to what I like.

I love;

Americana and all things Japanese

Hello Kitty and Steampunk

Victorian and Mid-Century

Books and my Kindle App

Frida and Bob Ross (for his hypnotic presence...)

Homemade and Store Bought

Disco and British New Wave

I love Iconic stuff like the Union Jack, the Golden Gate bridge, Maneki Neko and more!

My Favorite countries are England, Scotland, Ireland, India, Switzerland and Japan.

My favorite styles are Art Deco, Art Nouveau and the International Arts and Crafts Movement from the 1880's to the 1930's.

I love tea and my favorite teas are STRONG and SMOOTH! No herbals for me!

I am a water baby and I could live and work in a swimsuit, barefoot, in the water if I could swing it!

I like my postcards beat up in the mail so don't worry about and envelope for me!

I love to send postcards and bookmarks. I tend to have a million books going at once and use both to mark my place! I love taking pictures and want to incorporate that into my swap-bot experience somehow.

I do pledge to rate quickly as possible. My hope is that whatever I put in the mail for someone will make them smile and be happy they opened their mailbox. If you don't receive something from me please let me know...I will generally try to send my swap out asap.

I am so excited to hang with you swap-bots!

Thanks for having me! Tricia

I love non-fiction best but I am drawn to ridiculously well written books of any genre.

District 9, Bull Durham, Desk Set, An Education, Scott Pilgrim vs the World

I love writers and I love comedy so The Inbetweeners, Flight of the Conchords, Raising Hope and I loved Arrested Development and My Name is Earl.

I am a bookmark and post card girl. I have sewn and quilted but dabbling in the paper arts now. I enjoy photography and keep threatening to get back into it! Maybe a good swap will motivate me!

I lead a charmed life; I home school my only child, (11 year old boy), my husband and I have been married for 25 years and we all live in a 60 year old farm house on acreage with a black cat and a Mini Schnauzer. Charmed indeed!

I am addicted to my iPhone and because of that I invented a simple, lazy and crazy device that holds your iPhone so you don't have to. I got a provisional patent on it and I am just starting to market it. www.mobilepadcloud.com

I can't leave the house without my sunglasses and my re-usable Starbucks Iced Coffee cup w/straw. I don't know why but I have to have water with me at all times and I'm seem to be too lazy to open a water bottle!

I love Pandora Radio on my iPhone and desktop computer. I totally love choosing an artist that exemplifies their genre and era and listening to their equivalents I didn't think of! My favorite stations are; KC & the Sunshine Band, Andy Gibb, Estelle, and Warren G.
