About Me

I'm vegan. I like orange, lime green, bright pink, lemon yellow, turquoise, periwinkle, some brown, sometimes burgundy, other rusty fall colors, even mustard yellow but my favorites are the first five. I love bright and deep colors best. I’m really not into forest green (it was my favorite color in high school/first year of college and I have too much of it around), navy, red and blue together, too much black or too much white.

I've lived with the same boy forever. We don't have pets. I'm allergic to cats. I get really unhappy when smoke gets blown in my face. I collect lots of things, like yarn, books of all kinds (particularly craft books, cook books, reference books, poetry books, flip books), fabric, spices, vintage clothes, pretty bags and huge bags and canvas bags for groceries, vintage glass beads, buttons, milk glass, vintage pyrex, bowls and cups, aprons, community newspapers, postcards, vintage sewing and knitting patterns, sassy magazines from the early 90’s (only 1 so far!), blank books, leaves, rocks, ephemera,…I’m trying not to actively collect anything right now (broke), though, especially stuff that I have no idea where it goes. Like if it doesn’t have a use, but just sits on the shelf, I get very confused. My favorite vegan things to eat (cause vegan things are the only thing I eat) are wizzer eggs and wizzer beans, peanut butter cups or almond butter cups, vegan nougat, rooibos tea (green or red, honeybush or fruit bits or without, i'm totally out!), gummy bears, fun hot sauces, valentine box chocolates, cinnamon rolls, chocolate (my favorite is the chocolove kind with raspberries in it!), Uncle Eddie's cookies, chocolate chips, soy delicious purely decadent on its own or in a shake, avocado, wasabi peas, really rich brownies, raspberries, melon slices, mango, vegetables with creamy dip, fake cheese, nutritional yeast, injera, Ethiopian food, pizza, fresh cupcakes and fresh donuts!

I like fun stuff and whimsical stuff and useful stuff and vintage-inspired. I'd love to get something from you that you made just for me. That always feels nice.

Getting stuff in the mail is exciting. Just knowing that someone is thinking about me is all gooey and sweet.
