About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Collecting all the music while I dream of Paw Paw WVA

ABOUT ME

Oh HAI,

I really like the people I like but I am a pretty introverted person. I like to keep busy by creating. If its warm, you will find me gardening a lot and being outside and if its winter I am knitting and listening to my record collection. I Like to dance because I am very funky. I am also a huge flirt. Some people don't like me because I am too blunt and sometimes i think my opinion is right. I laugh and joke a lot but can stare you down with the most intimidating glare. I love rock n roll music a lot. I also love cats and fashion, self sufficiency and burgers. GO EAT A BURGER but make sure its grassfed. I have a complicated relationship with my bicycle and with a lot of my male friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

there are many small moments in a day where i think its the most incredible thing but there is no need to mention it. i've been to iceland which is a pretty amazing country to be in.

Teach, Learn, Share

i know how to cook. it is mostly self-taught from watching cooking shows starting at age 10. i did go to school for culinary arts so sometimes i'll get all cookery school on you and have a sort of blind faith reason for the way i do something. i also think i know a good bit about growing plants. for now its mainly veggies and herbs but i dabble in perennial flowers and some fruits too. i also am a fermentation fetishist as sandorkraut has expressed.

i need to learn anything that is useful for a self sustaining existence! bicycles, carpentry, growing fruit trees, jewelry making, more knitting, animal husbandry. etc, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share dinner and a shower and coffee. I am a barista so there is always coffee and tea here.
