getting to know me...

I've noticed several new followers around here lately, so I thought I'd take the opportunity introduce myself by telling you a few things you may not have picked up yet.

I am in no way lactose intolerant...I appear I have an addiction to ice cream.


I've been drinking coffee since I was 17 (it probably stunted my growth).

latte, hot or iced...I need my caffeine! 
My husband is an outstanding cook and I try not to take it for granted.


When I'm not blogging or baking you may find me upcycling anything from an empty bottle to a shirt to a book


I've lived in 6 states and Boston has my heart!


I love to travel and see new places, whether stateside or overseas.
Backpacking in White Mountains of New Hampshire, our honeymoon in Alaska, hiking Mt Pacaya in Guatemala, standing by the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland

My favorite place on earth is Colorado and I lived there three times for a total of 12 years.


Tell me something interesting about you!
...and don't forget to enter the giveaway from Petunia Blooms!

  1. Cute post! I agree, coffee is my lifeline. Do you drink it black? That's my favorite ;)

    1. I don't usually drink it black. I prefer it with half and half or milk (no sugar or sweetener).

    3. I love to travel too, but Mt. Pacaya would not be on that list. Once.in.a.lifetime. I love Guatemala, but that volcano wanted to eat me alive!
    4. I also love the new blog look :)

  6. I love your new header. And the fact that you are so into ice cream and coffee. Me too. I eat way too much ice cream. On our trip, we took ice cream breaks most afternoons. Not good for the waistline.=)

  8. COFFEE, TRAVEL, ICE CREAM, YES!!!

    Jen is also an AMAZING cook. It's sweet having someone with chef-like skills in your kitchen, who spoils you with special meals, eh?

    Something interesting about me, hmmmm. I'm a Leo in Western Astrology and a Snake in the Chinese Zodiac. My favorite number is 13. I adore being home with Jen and our fur and feather babies, above all else. I'm a shopaholic. I love shirts. I've rode a bareback bronc and a bull in the rodeo and so much more!
