Hello there! Welcome, so glad you are here and want to know more about me. So off we go... 

I live in beautiful historic Bucks County Pennsylvania, a suburb of Philadelphia and short drive to the Jersey Shore and New York City. I am a hometown girl, born and raised.

Just like a hometown girl, I married my high school sweetheart. (we re-connected years later, which involved an escalator, read here) I've been in love with him since the day we met and knew we would marry. He is my soul mate and always standing by my side. I can't wait to grow old with him, have lots of grandbabies to yell at and point and laugh at his gray hair and wrinkles (because I won't have neither). See why he's a rock star here

 We have two beautiful children who light up our life, a son and a daughter. I call them my mice. They leave crumbs everywhere. They are the center of our world, the reason I get up in the morning. (..that sounds a little over the top..like any mom, on certain days, I wonder who are these aliens and why were they sent to torture me?) They have busier social schedules than me, which tells me things have gotten way off track around here. We have a puppy, Sadie Scarlett O'Hara Frey. Her name weighs more than she does. Her cuteness is addicting.

There is never a dull moment in our home. Noise, laughter and fun fill our home...we are a loud bunch ...a place where you never know who will pop in unannounced, just the way I like it. When I hear the back door I know it's family, when I hear someone on the front porch, I know it's friends. (or the Verizon guy fixing my never ending phone line problems)

We have been honored by having our home featured in some national and local magazines.

Also, please look for my book (here's where the accidental author part comes in)"Blogging for Bliss", published by Lark Books. Get the latest updates on the book by stopping by my blog, here.I'll see you there!

Who doesn't love to shop? I'm always at the flea market and never at the mall. Speciality boutiques and indie crafters are my favorite. Oh, and I'm that blonde girl you always see shopping at your local Anthropologie store, please do say hello.

I own lots of shoes, but prefer my pink fuzzy slippers

I love my husband. Truly, madly, deeply

My passport proves I travel, but not as much as I like...have to work on that.

I love to collect, create and inspire. I love photography and learning new skills to enhance my photos.

I can not resist Oreos and will eat them until they are gone. I never buy them, but my husband does, on occasion, to watch my insanity.

I don't have luck with coffee makers and usually buy 3 a year.

I love unique and genuine things – especially unique and genuine people.

I am a just a girl who is following her dreams...come along for the ride, we may hit a few bumps here and there so put on your seatbelt...BUT we are sure to arrive at our destination!
