Favorite Music

trentmoller, TMBG, brett dennan, ingrid michaelson, corrine bailey, dead prez, beatles, woody guthrie, queen, max richter, abba, kansas, journey, folk music, bluegrass. playing the piano. discovering more music that i haven't heard. great lyrics, music with soul

Favorite Books

non-fiction political stories about folks who stand up for justice and liberate the ground they live on; don't be afraid gringo by medea benjamin. you can't be neutral on a moving train by howard zinn. four arguments for the elimination of television by Jerry Mander

Favorite Crafts

sewing crafts; small useful items, frocks, wearable things, crafts with a purpose. i like to look at pretty things, but i would rather be able to use my creations for something. functional crafts? i love stamps, vintage things, cat detritus (except when my cats leave their detritus around, it's so hard to get then to clean up after themselves...what a couple of pigs...cats. they're pig-cats. i would love to figure out what to do with the millions of billions of wine bottle corks i have! did i mention i love wine?

Postcards

i have just started collecting, but am particularly fond of any vintage postcards regardless of the year, i also like; fairies, literature related, art, cats, turtles, owls, pigs, hearts, llamas, swedish/finnish artwork, mexican artists, pictures of different cultures around the world, aerial photography. i'm also very good at appreciating nearly anything on some level.

I'm a 3Day Walker!

Check those girls grrls!

Comment: Hi Mary, Thanks for the inspiring quote & for the accordion PC from MIM. It's funny you mention "Black Books", because someone else recommended it to me also. I don't have BBC, but I think I could look it up online, like I did with "Portlandia". Take care & have a fun summer! ;)
Response: Thanks for the <3 ! Glad you enjoyed it :)

Comment: I am giving you a heart for this fab postcard not just because this is my first swap received, or because you sent it out so darned quick, not even because it says "size matters" on the back, but because it has a giant red plastic toy T-rex on it!! Thank you!
Response: Thank you! I am so glad you liked it. Here's what the sculpture looks like in front of the museum; http://rakstagemom.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/dsc_0037.jpg The artist, Sui Jianguo, put a stamp that reads "Made in China" on it's belly.
