More About Me

- Heroes: People that will do the right thing even though it is not profitable or expedient.

Daughter & Sister. Dabbler in makeup fun (I love Sephora). Adorer of lavender. Newbie scrapbooker - it is so fun and such a wonderful creative outlet for me!
- Expertise: Well, well, well...I like Jesse's take on this stuff. Who defines what an expert is? I will tell you what I'm currently good at though: Writing, making a delicious cup of hot chocolate, laundry (which in a warped way, I actually like doing), painting walls - just call me Miss Handy Girl, cupcakes, taking care of my friends and loved ones, singing, laughing and enjoying life.
