My hubby and best friend, Ed and I have been together for almost 22 years. We feel very blessed to have a wonderful marriage and a great relationship. We love corny jokes & puns, and finish each others sentences. Our daily household life is crazy (in a good way) with our five kiddos, two dogs, and two cats. Never a dull moment here! We hail from Pennsylvania, but have lived in the Twin Cities for about 15 years. We love the Midwest because it is a terrific place to raise kids. I'm a stay-at-home mom (worked as a Children's Librarian previously). I've always loved makeup and beauty products, and I love people...so being an AVON Lady & blogger are a nice fit for me. I've been treasure hunting at thrift stores, estate sales, garage sales, and antique stores for as long as I can remember. Making plans to rent a shelf at a local Antique Store.
