Well I'm thirty-six (April 25, 19971) and married to Mario who's thirty-seven on February 27, 1970 an Italian. Married for 3 1/2 years (December 20, 2003). Met in 2001 in Canada - through a mutual friends for Fieri New Years Eve Party (Fieri is an Italian organization). I'm Hispanic but also love italian foods, Our mutual friend would invite me to attend there meetings and fuctions, and each time I would decline, until this one time to visit Canada and celebrate. I was there for a few days before New Years, and only laughed at my now husband on how he picked up girls.One child her name is Eve, she's eighteen born on September 1, 1989, just graduated from High School on June 2nd, 2007 - And now expecting her first child due January 2008. We live in Plainfield, Illinois.I work for an architectural firm. Close to home. Seeking a full time job - prefer close to home, but will settle to Downtown Chicago, again. Now that my little one is on her own.I love to travel too as you can see, many came out blur or I forgot to take the camera (silly me). But I do have the passports to prove it as well as the tickets and memories.I love Taormina, Italy - My husband and I went there on our honeymoon in two thousand and four - one of many places to see in Italy. Best time of the year to go, would be in late August early September.Places I've seen while visting Europe was Florence, Rome, Vatican City, Capri, Venice, Pisa, Palermo.I love vintage items, whether its's Victorian arts and crafts to flowers and homes. Love that era, the romance of it.Then there's the cabin - love the peace and quite, the homes etc.My home is modern with leather sofas, wrought iron through out the house inside and out. I collect Angels figurines as well as Precious Moments and Cherubs.I love Swarovski Crystal and Victorian beads (mainly roses)I love cooking and baking too. One thing I love to do is cross stitch and bead work.Ohh - the list is so long, for those who know me - would say my basement is full of crafts and ideas. Plenty of magazines of cookbooks and crafts along with how to books and Nora Roberts.
