First of all, I would like to make one thing perfectly clear... I never explain anything. - M. Poppi

About Me


I am addicted to coffee and fabric.
I collect scarves and elephants and small children and other people's pets.
I usually have bits of string stuck to my person.
I spend my extra money (hahaha) on books and fabric and music.
My guitar is my friend.
I sew things and it keeps me sane.
I dig ponds and move plants around my yard.
I intended to be a crazy old lady someday.
I like words.
I like red things.
I like good pens.
My pockes usually contain a sharpie, a tape measure
and several small objects found during the day.
I want to be a cat in the sunny patch on the floor.

My Etsy Shop
AOLFF - It's a Grace Thing!
sometimes sending an email really does do something...
I've been getting lots of friend requests from folks with their profiles set to private.
If I don't know you, you'll have to message me before I'll add you.

Movies:



Zzzzzzzz... were we watching a movie? Oh, wow... I must have fallen asleep!

I like movies that have the following folks in them:

Steve Martin
Bill Murray
Tom Hanks
Robin Williams
Jack Black
Jack Nickolson
and others who make me laugh...

I've been known to watch anything, even the worst movie, if it has good costuming.

Television:



We like to pay for expensive cable that no one watches...
If we remember it's there we watch Mythbusters, Fix-up-your-crappy-house-shows & The History Channel.

Books:



Blue Like Jazz & others by Don Miller
Plan B & others by Anne Lamott
Simplicity - Mark Salomon
The Way of A Pilgrim
Books by Plough Publishing House

Old books that smell right... New books that look old.
