CA girl recently transplanted across the ocean. I am a wife and mother of two who keep me busy, very busy. I joined roller derby about a year ago (love it) to keep me sane.

I love reading everything from books that make me scared to be alone, happy endings, set in the past, and anything written about history. Some of my favorites East of Eden, Devil in the White City, Harry Potter series, Gunslinger series by Stephen King A few I recently finished: "In the Garden of Beasts" Erik Larson "The Book Thief" Markus Zusak "Hangman's Daughter" Oliver Pötzsch

I like anything I can dance in my car to. Who doesn't like thinking they can sing like Madonna? Cold Play, Jack Johnson, Foo Fighters, The Killers, Ingrid Michaelson, Adele, Florence and the Machine, Pearl Jam, The Dollyrots

I don't really get a lot of time to watch movies but when I do I like to watch girly movies, period pieces, and of course disney movies. Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Sex and the City, Alice in Wonderland, Nightmare before Christmas, Princess Bride. I love anything from the 80's even if my husband laughs at me. Go Molly!!

What free time I have is spent with my family, learning German, reading, baking cupcakes (must be an epidemic because everyones doing it) and roller derby.

I LOVE all colors though I do hold a soft spot in my heart for pink/red and blue/purple color combos. Pin-up, anything cupcake (art, decorations, pins, wrappers), roller derby relates items (shoelaces, knee high socks, art) old photos, vintage, rainbows, polka dots, Disney, Alice in Wonderland (original), Nightmare before Christmas, unicorns, kitsch halloween items actually all halloween items, Minnie Mouse, stationary. My derby team is zombie so I am starting to taking a liking to them but its tough. My favorite shape is the HEART. Halloween is my absolutely favorite holiday to decorate for closely followed by Valentine's Day.

Not a huge fan of chocolate candy but love anything baked with chocolate (cookies, cupcakes, hot chocolate). Love dots, orange slices, butterscotch candies. Do not like mint flavor anything but always open to trying pretty anything once.
