I like modern "left-of-center" designs.

I'm not into: overly "girly" flowery things, "cutesy", fairies, or country decorating

Most Blues (modern & classic), Peter Gabriel, Everlast, NIN, Storm Large, BNL, Decemberists, Beth Hart, The Black Keys, Susan Tedeschi, The Killers, Audioslave, White Stripes, Dave Navarro, U2, Howlin Wolf, B.B. King, Muddy Waters, Etta James, Green Day, R.E.M., Joss Stone, Amy Winehouse, Classic Motown, Northern Soul etc.,etc., etc., it changes nearly every day

Novels, Sci-Fi/Fantasy, biographies, intelligent alternate history

Favorite Authors: Poppy Brite, Roddy Doyle, Brendan O'Carrol, Storm Constantine, Augusten Burroughs, David Sedaris, Richard Russo, Raymond Feist, Terry Pratchett, Robin Hobb etc., etc

New to sewing - so I'm building up a fat quarter stash to end all fat quarter stashes : )

I like cotton fabrics with modern designs and lots of color. My favorite fabrics are red/white . . . and I love purple.

Believe it or not, I don't have a television (and haven't for years). I do occasionally watch some shows on my laptop via dvd and downloads.

I'm guilty of watching Saving Grace, Battlestar Gallactica, The Tudors, Californication, Weeds, The L Word, Damages, Lost (and ssshhhhh I'm sort of embarassed to say, Grey's Anatomy & Private Practice . . . but that's just between me and you)

mix cds and mp3s (most genres, although not crazy about country or most jazz (unless it's on the "bluesy side")

I LOVE Bassett Jelly Babies and Kinder Eggs -- and it's so hard to find them in the US. I'm way too fond of chocolate . . . and I also like salty snacks (particulary ones not easily found in the US)

I love possessing fabric (shamefully enough, probably more than actually making things with it LOL)

I also collect wooden boxes (vintage wooden playing card boxes in particular)
