About Me

A full time working mama, wife, daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, niece, granddaughter, godmother (2x!), and blessed by God's grace everyday.

I am extremely sentimental and really appreciate by gone eras. My absolute favorite era is the 1930's and 1940's. The wholesomeness of life in America depicted in most everything from movies to music during that time is precious to me. Times were tough, but people were hard-working and honest. I also deeply respect my grandparents and have a traditional love for bluegrass music and southern (U.S) culture passed down from them.

LOVE: The color Orange... paired with sunset hues (red/yellow), or nature hues (brown/green) My favorite color combo is Aqua and Chocolate Brown. I adore butterflies, flowers, and fairies. I am a coffee/iced tea/hot tea girl. I like my coffee strong, my iced tea sweet, and my hot tea caffinated or mint, although I've been known to cozy up to a vanilla chamomile once in a while.

COULD LIVE WITHOUT: Pink, and cilantro(yuck!)

Favorite Music

(Big Band-anything from the 30's & 40's), Billie Holiday, Glenn Miller, Artie Shaw, Frank Sinatra, (Bluegrass) Ralph Stanley, Biscuit Burners, Allison Krauss, Alecia Nugent, Cherryholmes, Lonesome Standard Time. Also like Natalie Grant, Switchfoot, Lifehouse, and Casting Crowns.

Favorite Movies

Alice Adams, Adam's Rib, Dial "M" for Murder, Amazing Grace, Holiday Inn, The Aviator, Walk the Line, Coal Miner's Daughter. (Anything that tells a story about justice, love and hope)

Favorite Television

Enjoying Everyday Life, What not to wear, Clean sweep, Clean House, Scrapbooking, Craft Lab, I Love Lucy, The Grand ole opry.

Favorite Crafts

Scrapbooking, Heritage Rug Hooking, Gallery Glass (because I have always loved stain glass- I just have not invested in materials, classes and space yet: Gallery Glass lets me cheat) jewelry making, poetry, cooking and gardening.

Comment: Oooo, I would love to see Switzerland. I had an unexpected layover in Bern a few years ago, but it was the middle of the night and only a few hours. Didn't even get to go out and see how remarkably clean the streets are. Someday I would love to see Pilatus. Thank you for the postcard and daydream!

Comment: Mt. Pilatus sounds far more beautiful than the cannon at Gettysburg. I'm sorry you didn't have a picture of the mountain.
Response: I'm sorry I could not send a post card of Mt. Pilatus as well! My attempts to purchase souvenir postcards online were unsuccessful:-(

Comment: Okay, everyone: I want you to pay attention to Angela - THIS is how to swap! I got the most wonderful package FULL of great stuff - Shout wipes, Burt's Bees Shimmer, 3 pens/Sharpies, a notebook, a VINTAGE silky purse, some anti-bacterial gel, Gold Bond healing lotion and a crystal nail stone! Not only that, but Andrea also sent her list via a card-stocked, HAND-BOUND, decorated book! And the gifts were wrapped with a MATCHING NOTE!!! I have to say this is also Angela's first swap EVER! So give it up for someone who obviously knows the meaning of 'swapping'! Thank you so much, Angela! :) Cheers, Mel
Response: Thank you for the kind comments, Mel! I am so pleased that you liked everything.
