1l  My hobbies are crafts!  Like sewing, knitting, crocheting, a little scrap-booking, painting...and then walking, running, playing tennis, ice skating, travelling...oh boy!!

Favorite colors: pink!!  Turquoise, mint green, robin's egg blue....silver!!

I collect Hello Kitty stuff (I know...I'm dorky), Madeline dolls (that little French orphan....) craft supplies...salt and pepper shakers that are vintagey,...

Not allergic to anything!

Now down to one cat...and a beta fish.

I am a coffee addict...but also love a good cup of tea..

I like to read mysteries, and "feel-good" stories, magazines, (love craft magazines and house magazines)

I like cookies and candies!!

Holiday treat:  shortbread cookies!!  The nice scottish kind!!

Holiday tradition:  I used to love to go with my family to get a tree, when I was a kid and livef where there actually were trees to cut down!  But now I just enjoy putting up all the decorations, right after Thanksgiving.  Although this year I am not sure that I can wait that long!!

Still believe in SANTA!!

We open presnets Christmas morning...stockings, then breakfast, then presents!!

Of course we put up a tree...as soon as I can convince my husband to haul everything in from the shed!

My tree is a little vintage...Hallmark ornaments, red and white and green.

My favorite gift...oh boy...can't think of just one...LOVE hand-made gifts!!
