Extended Profile
I have recently relocated to Brisbane, Australia from Portland, Oregon to be with my fiance. He's Australian, hence the move.

I am a creative soul with many favorite crafting hobbies that include but are not limited to; sewing, stamping, scrapbooking, cross-stitch, painting, refinishing furniture, and gardening. I also enjoy cooking and baking. I have German, Norwegian, and Native American heritage.

I enjoy reading light hearted fiction, mystery, and crime novels. I've also been know to read romance novels. I love reading books by British authors. If you see something on my bookshelf you're interested in, please let me know. I would love to make trades and am willing to read something sooner to make it available.

So far this year I have read:

Smart Vs. Pretty by Valerie Frankel (given in trade to BC member)

Along Came Trouble by Sheryl Woods (wild released)
The Cat Who Talked to Ghosts by Lilian Jackson Braun (to be wild released)

All of my releases may not be listed above as sometimes I purchase books (at the thrift store) that I have already read just for the purpose of trade/wild releasing/RABCK's. Also, books I trade or RABCK I make journal entries rather than release notes.
