Jari had to say...

I love to read and average 4-7 books a week. I read a wide variety of books and always open to suggestions of new authors.  If I had to rank my W/L books  It would be something like:  1)Food to Die For by Patricia Cornwell, 2) Other WL Cookbooks, 3)Laurrel K Hamillton, 4) Crafting books.

 I enjoy crafting and spend most of my time reading or "creating", or researching new creative ideas and mediums.  I have experience in almost every craft medium to some degree, although there are a few I haven't gotten too yet.  I like to mix mediums and create on my own.  I hope to be opening my own on-line store by holiday season (Unique Botique by Buttons) with some of my many creations.  I also enjoy planning menus and cooking different foods.  I hate to eat the same foods over and over close together.

My husband and I are very involved in the local Moose lodge and do alot of community service.  I spend alot of time online trying to find ways to build up our lodge and make it a fun place to be again; in addition to all the officer duties that are involved.  I really enjoy interacting with people so this is a wonderful opportunity for me to do that and include alot of my other interests, like shopping, organizing events cooking, games, and in general giving back to my community.

I am a social butterfly online, but don't get out of the house except for our lodge projects.  I love having new buddies and love this community!!!

I love to play games of almost any kind.  Card Games, Board games, PS2--Spyro,Gex,Guitar Hero,etc..  I really enjoy puzzle games and strategy games, though I'm not into games in a book, word search etc.  Although those are nice for long trips.  I don't care for violent games, and I'm not any good at games like Socom,Call of Honor, where you have to shoot. (I end up shooting my buddy or myself, guess it's a good thing it's not like that with my handgun huh?)

 Anything else you might want to know you should be able to find in my notebook entries

AUTUMN DOLLAR STORE SWAP

I don't like anything halloween.  I'll be right up front with that.

I love Fall, and this is the first year since we moved to AZ that I've had a home of our own, so don't have much to decorate with, So fall Foliage and window decorations would be great.  All of my decorations were stolen when we moved here.  We lived w?MIL for quite some time due to my health, so I really don't have much at all to put out for Fall.  I love to decorate for the seasons, and the Holidays, Unfortunately in small towns your choices are limited.

I am a thrift store junky so if You are where you have acces to one and that fits your budget better....FEEL FREE!!

I love candles and all of the fall scents are great!  The spicy smells, anc cooking smells,  mmmmmm!

Even though I live in AZ, I get cold very easy so slipper socks are a favorite!!!

I have short hair now so no hair doodads, but I like jewelry and would love something that represents Thanksgiving.

My most favorite thing about this time of year?  October is Pink Ribbon month!!!!!!!!!!

I am a strong advocate for Pink Ribbon awareness, and would not be offended if my buddy decided to spend part of the budget on those donate a dollar cards that the grocery store usually sells.  I don't think you'll find much for this in the dollar stores, so thought I would throw that out there as an option.
