I live in Dublin, Ohio which is a suburb of Columbus. And yes, I love the fact that I am Irish and live in Dublin (even if it isn't the real one). I am a high school English teacher and I am also the yearbook advisor. I love to read almost any type of book. I also love to listen to music and spend time with my family. I have a goldendoodle puppy, Cara, (golden retriever and poodle mix) who is always up to mischievous.

I am, of course, a HUGE Ohio State fan. My husband and I try to go to at least one football game and basketball game each season. I am also a big Duke basketball fan. I grew up just outside of Cleveland, Ohio so I am a Browns fan and a Cavalier fan (even though they keep breaking our hearts)

I love all things vintage. My family likes to joke I should have been born in any other decade. I could spend hours in thrift/vintage shops. My favorite thing is to find vintage jewelry and dresses. I really love vintage charm necklaces right now =)

I will try any craft at least once, although there are some I am better at than others. I just learned to knit and am excited to learn more, I cross-stitch and love to collage. I could spend hours looking through and cutting up magazines. I just started to get into collage making and scrap booking. I am really looking forward to learning so many things by participating in swaps.

Being an English teacher, I love just about all books... but my all-time favorites: Pride and Prejudice (or really anything Jane Austen), To Kill a Mockingbird, Great Expectations, anything by Shakespeare and the Harry Potter books. I collect bookmarks and I love journals.

I love watching Bones, Grey's Anatomy, Castle, Modern Family and Glee. I do have to admit to a secret obsession with a few reality shows. I adore Project Runway and I also like Dancing with the Stars, Survivor and The Amazing Race.

I love anything green or black, all things vintage and/or bohemian, and I collect bookmarks, postcards and journals.I love black and white photographs I love peanut butter, give me a peanut butter m&m or a buckeye and I'm in heaven.

Is it bad that I really want some royal wedding souvenirs?

I am a red head and all my life have disliked the colors red and pink. I also don't like nuts.
