“The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne” – Geoffrey Chaucer

I have one dog, a Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher/Pekingese mix named Stuart. He loves snuggling, chewing on Nylabones, and rolling around in “good smelling” grass.

In my spare time, I craft on my die cutting machine, read anything and everything, and spend time with my family. 

When it comes to sports, I’m really bad at them but also really enthusiastic about shouting loudly at/for people playing them. (Go Sabres!)

My favorite things to eat are freshly baked bread and smelly cheeses.

My hidden talent is making up songs about people’s pets.
