I've only been in the US for a couple of years,having lived in New Zealand ,Australia and Fiji previously. I love making things, especially mixed media [at the moment!] and am willing to try anything once! I like most colours and styles, but seem to lean towards blues and greens and anything with a whimsical quality. I also love love love chocolate, especially dark bitter chocolate.[colour as well as food]

I have three grown up sons [yes, I lived to tell the tale] and have recently become a granny - I'm way too young- really!!!

I love to read, the back of the cornflakes packet will do if I'm really desperate and am an avid magazine buyer - not good I know, but they make very good boot stuffers once you're done with them, just roll them up and push them down the leg!

I like: modern art, abstacts, anything that's a bit clever or has an unusual twist.
chocolate, tea, black jellybeans,
raspberries and Granny Smith apples books, books, books vintage anything, if it's been very well loved, even better. Dinnerware! Strange, I know, but I just love plates and cups etc Christmas - I'm hoping for snow! It'll be our first Christmas in the winter! Dislikes: Pumpkin,squash marrow- any squishy vegetable ugh! Anything overtly religious -of whatever persuausion "Precious" moments, Helen Steiner Rice quotes [sorry HSR!] Navel gazing self help books!

I will not flake, but do tend to leave things to the last minute [I work better under pressure!] If I am going to be late sending I will let my partner and the co-ordinator know - life does get in the way sometimes.
