I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a REALLY HORRIBLE dancer but I love to do it. My two favorite foods are olives and dark chocolate. I have a twin sister named Allison. I try to stay away from the television as much as possible and since I don't own one it is pretty easy. I'm a wino. I can not open pickle jars.

My Interests

painting, printing, drawing, metalsmithing, candle-stick making, playing with my dog, yoga or riding my bike, going to shows, going to thrift stores, eating (which is one of my favorite hobbies), and trying to cook (which always leads to the forementioned)And checking out the new stuff my friends make. ..

I'd like to meet:
