I'm a 38-year old mostly stay-at-home-mom and part-time librarian. I have an 8 1/2-year old daughter and a 6-year son, 1 cat, 1 dog, and 1 fairly patient husband! I love to read and make things, and never seem to have enough time to do as much of either as I'd like! I like wrens and hedgehogs and acorns, vintage hankies, violets, and buttons and beads. I love England, and dream of living there some day. My favorite colors are blue and blue-violet, and I don't have any fibre allergies that I know of--although I guess I have an "aesthetic" allergy to acrylic yarn!

I enjoy most music (except modern "country")--right now I'm listening to a lot of the Decemberists and Belle and Sebastian...but I'm just as likely to go on a Bach binge or a Putumayo spree (Especially love the Lounge, Groove and Cafe ones).

Red, The Double Life of Veronique, Oscar & Lucinda, The English Patient, North by Northwest, Arsenic and Old Lace, Breakfast at Tiffany's, Charade,Bend it Like Beckham, Lost in Translation, Garden State, I heart Huckabees, Amelie, Picnic at Hanging Rock, A Canterbury Tale, A Very Long Engagement...and so on

Alas...we haven't had a TV plugged in for a couple of years!(Our daughter attends a Waldorf school, and it's just easier to remove the television temptation.) I like As Time Goes By, The Vicar of Dibley,Scrubs, any Jamie Oliver cooking show, and reruns of Leave it to Beaver. Also anything Monty Python!

I guess knitting and felting are at the top of the list right now, but I've dabbled in all sorts of things! (And continue to dabble when I can find the time!)
