Hi Everyone-

It just occurred to me that I haven't properly introduced myself, even
thought I've been reading the group off and on for over 2 years, and
have even posted a handful of times. So here goes!

I'm a Midwest girl who was recently transplanted to New England for my
DH's career. Still trying to find my footing here. Obviously, I'm
married, but I have no human "kids." Our "babies" are two lizards -
Norman, the bearded dragon, and Clio, the mountain horned dragon. Of
course, they are completely spoiled! :-)

I mostly cross stich and crochet, though I have some samplers in my
statsh with some other counted stitched in them. I'm slowly
diversifying. Before I started reading this group, I had only worked
from kits, but now I'm using specialty fibers (I love blending
filament!) and even have a small project started on linen. Mostly, I'm
having difficulty finding the time to stitch. Sigh. I did manage
almost 3 hours last night!

Now for the important stuff, I love all kinds of chocolate, except when
it's mixed with peanut butter. But I prefer dark chocolate (Dove) with
a nice glass of red wine. I do lick my floss occasionally, when I can
find my needle threader. And for especially for Tia Mary: I prefer
Miracle Whip on sandwiches, but I prefer mayo on veggie burgers.
(Ducking and running...)

Hello to everyone! Y'all rock!!!
