About Me

Hello, My name is Diana and I live in Upstate New York (Catskill mountains). I have a boyfriend of 4 years, his name is Jack. I have a daughter that is 18 (sometimes a handful) :-) I love animals, crafting, cooking, kayaking, hiking, reading, lazing around drinking unsweetened ice tea on a hot day, sitting by the fireplace sipping a small glass of amaretto writing lyrics, thunderstorms, the smell of lilacs and lily of the valley. I love searching thrift shops, antique shops and flea markets, and tag sales for treasures to make my projects. I love treasure hunting. Autumn is my favorite season.

Favorite Music

I am a singer, song writer. I love so many genres of music. I go out and gig with my boyfriend Jack. He is a great musician. We have more than enough originals for a couple of cd's. Hopefully, we will be going to the studio in the springtime. I love blues, old country, folksy music, americana, good old fashioned rock n' roll. Some of my favorite artists are Townes Van Zandt, Lucinda Williams, Barbara Lynn,Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Solomon Burke and so many more. I could go on forever and ever.

Favorite Books

I like John Saul books. I also like those kind of books that keep you on the edge of your seat. Suspense and intrigue. I love vintage illustrated children's books. I also love illustrated fairy tale books. I love altered art books. Cookbooks. I don't like sappy romance novels.

Favorite Movies

My all time favorite movie is Overboard. I must of watched that a dozen times. A Walk In The Clouds, Under The Tuscan Sun, Where The Heart Is. I love holiday movies. I love feel good movies.

Favorite Television

I love twilight zone, outer limits, alfred hitchcock... I know those are all old but I just love them. I just finished watching the series Jericho on my Roku from Netfix, really wish it didn't end. I love HGTV.. watch it all the time. Love getting all those tips. Food Network.

Favorite Crafts

Ok where do I start. I love all sorts of crafts. My favorites are altered art projects, I love taking something that would be a toss out for most folks and giving it new life and beauty. I like to make shrines. Paper projects. Scrapbooking, Decoupage. I love my cricut. Beading, Jewelry making, painting, drawing, and my newest obsession (inchies). Like I told you I could go on forever. Must be because I am a Gemini.

  • Favorite Colors... I love all colors but I think some of my favorites are:
  • The color of the ocean

  • The color of a clear blue sky

  • The color of autumn leaves

  • The color of lilacs

  • The colors of the desert

Color combinations that I like are browns and blues, black and white, green and purple.

Rather Not Get

Comment: They loved their stuff, Lily grabbed the pony and took off and the horse float she was running around the house saying "go horse go" LOL Thanks so much they loved it.
Response: That makes me really happy! I figured Lily would get a kick out of seeing that the package was addressed to her. She must of looked so cute running around the house. I know Jaiden is a little young to know what swaps are all about, but I hope she liked everything too!!!!!! :-)

3P's Postcard Tag -

Thank you for the beautiful postcard of the Catskills, it must be stunning there in the fall. I grew up outside of Boston and have an idea how wonderful it can be. Anna

choke on May 23, 2009:

I got the postcard from the 3P's tag, sorry it's taken so long to thank you. Swap-bot has been really slow for me the past couple days :/ I do love the recipe card though, looks really yummy!!
