I On Vacation!


Aloha friends! Please bear with me as I figure out how to navigate Swap-Bot and how to expand my profile. (My profile is currently under constant construction)

If I make a mistake or there are any issues with our swaps, please allow me to resolve them before leaving negative feedback. Thank you.

I Pledge to Rate Sorry for the delayโ€”Iโ€™m a bit behind on rating, but I promise I'll get to each and every swap. Thanks for your patience!



I wholeheartedly welcome & appreciate anything you send my way, whether from the Dollar Tree or a Florentine boutique as I firmly believe that beggars can't be choosers.

I'm happily married to my best friend (he sweetly takes all my swaps to the post office) and we have two furbabies, an incredibly anxious orange tabby & a very sassy tortie. Three of our beloved cats have crossed the Rainbow Bridge.

I'm a lover of all things books, BookCrossing, and little free libraries. I'm a caffeine addict and coffeeholic. I collect postcards, pressed pennies, souvenir coins, stationery, pens, bookmarks, stamps, vintage books, stickers, ephemera, anything cat or animal-related, blank and filled out recipe cards & postcards, etc. Dragonflies hold a special place in my heart as I consider them my spirit animal.

Read & Release!

I have been a nomad for most of my life, and I enjoy traveling and learning about different cultures. Of all the places I have lived, Hawai'i is the only place that has ever felt like home.

I have a fondness for chocolates and candies from different parts of the world due to my sweet tooth. Whenever I go on a trip, I make sure to bring back some sweets with me. Unfortunately, my husband was recently diagnosed with diabetes, so I am now searching for sugar-free treats that he can indulge in.

I like to collect naval and submarine-related memorabilia as my husband was a submariner in the U.S. Navy,

Postcards

Kindly send postcards written & stamped, not in an envelope. Unless the swap specifically calls for an envelope.

I will happily accept Zazzle or homemade postcards, so feel free to send them my way!

Dislikes

Persnicketiness, arrogance, rudeness, racists, bigots

Food-inspired scents like vanilla, coconut in body care or home products -- they make me nauseous for some unknown reason. Does this happen to anyone else? ๐Ÿ˜…

Recipe Swaps

I appreciate and love any & all recipes you share with me, pls. don't limit yourselves to just my likes.

As I'm inept in the kitchen, I enjoy simple, semi-homemade recipes with minimal ingredients. Especially desserts.

I'm currently on the hunt for a delicious, but simple mac 'n cheese, low-sodium & diabetic-friendly desserts for my hubby or any random recipe. My husband is an omnivore & I'm a vegetarian (occasional pescatarian).

E-mail-based Swaps

When e-mailing me directly, kindly add Swap-Bot to the subject line so your message doesn't get lost among my countless unread messages. Thank you!

I'm the proud auntie of a sweet & kind 13-year-old who has autism and is obsessed with birds. I would be extremely grateful for anything for my bird-loving boy.

Comment: You haven't reached out to me about this swap that remains unsent. You didn't reply to my message on Sept. 30th. Your profile says you're on vacation but nothing about when you'll be back. You haven't been on the site since September 4th. Hopefully you'll return to finish your part of this swap.

MrsCrafty - Comment A Quote Swap

"A Gem Cannot Be Polished Without Friction, Nor Man Perfected Without Trials." - Lucius Annaeus Seneca

This has been one of my favorite quotes since I was child. Something about it is motivational and inspirational. I hope you enjoy it! Have a great day! <3
