About Me

If you wonder why I'm never here, it's likely I'm to be found on flickr (I admit it, I'm a total flickr junkie!), or messing with my shop on etsy.http://www.flickr.com/photos/amberwalker is where you'll find my photos of Fox, Barbie (yes, the doll!), the things I make, and the thrifty-cool things I find.http://www.lovenestdesign.etsy.com is where you can purchase many of those handmade and cool-thrifty items. (that is, if I can bear to part with them!) I'm now offering handmade magnets and pushpins to those of you that are constant cubicle dwellers looking for some vintage flair...I'm crazy about my son Fox, miniatures, the color pink, my brilliant sister, my weirdo magician husband, my talented conversing terridachsigoathund (dog), and just about anything involving craft supplies. I enjoy cooking, sewing (sometimes), and throwing parties (an excuse to cook & hang out with my great friends), and decorating.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Mostly I'd like to meet people who aren't around anymore to be met. My Grandpa Chuck, Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Narcissa Niblack Ward Thorne (yes, an actual person), John Lennon, Edith Head, and Bettie Page (she's not dead, but she refuses to be seen, so...)Hmmm.... the living: Amy & David Sedaris, Steve Martin, Todd Oldham, Betsey Johnson, a pet whisperer, and assorted people from my past that technically I've met before. (Please contact me if you are: Tara White, Brad White, Tammie Williams, Lisa Lewis, Erin Stover, Damon Pitt, Ben Stephens, or Robyn Byrd.... I'm sure I'll think of more of youse guys)

My Blog

Jones soda....

One of Pan and my wedding pics has been put on a Jones Soda root beer label.  If anyone finds some, buy them all and I'll pay you for them!  I'm dying to see one!

Our New Place....

....Is very nice.  It's a bungalow (I'd guess 30's) in old North Knoxville, on a fairly quiet street, a large yard (shady) with a barn-ish outbuilding, and a wooded area meeting up with the back ...

favorite baby names

This does not seem to be a topic Pan and I readily agree on.  We throw a lot of possible names out there, and often, feelings are extreme.  We both have the problem of people in our wid...
