About Me

I live deep in the forest with my pack- husband, 2 dogs and 1 cat. I spend my days teaching middle schoolers in a one room school house (complete with bell) built in 1917. I enjoy reading excellent and twisted fantasy novels and drinking coffee in the early mornings and practicing yoga in the evenings. My favorite swaps are generally quirky, music mixes.

Books/Movies

.Serenity. .Death Proof. .'The Traveler' by John Twelve Hawks is currently my very favorite book. I am also a fan of Patrica Briggs, George R.R. Martin, Stephanie Meyer, Laurell Hamilton, Kim Harrison, Robin Hobbs, and Kelley Armstrong.

Gardening Goodness

I love my garden! If in doubt, I collect quirky garden art...gnomes, stained glass, goddesses, vibrant latin pottery and rusty metal statuary. I am always interested in seeds (zone 5) and the folklore and stories of plants. Green is good.

Comment: Thank you SO much for this wonderful swap! I absolutely love everything - the copper bracelet is amazing and absolutely what I love as jewellery (bravo to your husband! :)), the fossil is again something I love - and I have never owned one of leaves before, the seeds are wonderful, as is the painted leaf, the papers and the wonderful soap. Thank you so much!!! The parcel arrived ripped - it was obvious that someone had made an effort to look inside, but luckily you had wrapped up everything in paper as well so I guess they didn't dare to rip that as well and didn't take anything. So glad about that!!!

Comment: Thank you, the star ornament with the spiral goddess is lovely. Brought back memories of playing around with making things out of copper wire as a kid. I loved the apple seed ornament -- so perfect and bright and teeny and natural!
