I love music, good friends, sewing sewing sewing, painting, drawing, photography, food fights, napping, jumping in puddles and running around in the rain (when that actually happens here), daydreaming, late nights, devising ways to be famous, writing, being a smart-ass. And of course my awesome boyfriend!!!
People who make me laugh and appreciate good, old-fashioned fun. Crafty people whose work inspires me. People who can spell.www.jesswitaj.com
