Hello! My name is Angie and I live in the USA. I have 4 cats and 1 dog. I'm an extroverted introvert, loyal, friendly, open-minded and non-judgmental.

I love to junk journal and read. I enjoy reading Thrillers, Contemporary Romance, Memoirs and Dark Romance. It's really hard to pick favorites but I've really enjoyed June First by Jennifer Hartmann (slow burn/sort of forbidden romance) and Darling Venom by Parker S. Huntington. Please check triggers. (Top 2 reads of 2022)

I'm hoping to find a few long-term international pen pals over time but I'm always open to more domestic as well. I'm an active pen pal which means I write often if you write me often. I always write back! I belong to a Pen Pal Swap group on Facebook and I've enjoyed my time so far with the women I've met. I'm open to receiving mail from any sex/gender.

I'm addicted to good pens, stickers (seasonal, hearts, butterflies, book related, sarcastic stickers, flowers, anything extremely feminine, quotes etc), snowmen, chai tea, Albanese gummies and wintergreen or spearmint candy. For chocolate, I love milk chocolate the best but am trying to enjoy dark.

Speaking of Tea, I love breakfast tea, oolong tea, flavored teas and some herbal as well. Chai is my ULTIMATE favorite and I enjoy trying all variations of Chai. I'm not a fan of brisk teas. I prefer a smooth feel in the mouth. I love tea iced or hot. I'm excited to learn more about it.

I love to bake and cook as well! Shall we share our favorite recipes? I cannot wait to get to know some of you!

I'm a moody music listener. I love pop music, pop rock, rock, alternative, R&B, some rap and hip hop, some country, and of course ballads. I'm not a big fan of folk, punk rock, funk, techno, heavy metal or disco.

I'm new to paper crafting. I adore making cards and pockets as well as journals. It's still a process but I especially love getting ideas from others. I love seasonal cards, animal cards, recipe notecards, post cards, washi tape, transparent washi tape, decoupage, neutral and seasonal colors. My favorite colors are pink and purples of all variations. I adore embellishments like lace and stickers as well as charms, dried flowers, wax seals, white butterflies/regular butterflies. I adore texture, flowers (not a huge fan of roses) but I adore daisies, decorated paperclips, doilies, bohemian aesthetic, shabby chic, vellum, specialty papers, anything book related and frames. I'm kind of picky on vintage and cottage core. I love stationery and note cards! If you know of any great tutorials for beginners, please message me

I do not have cable, but I love watching Prime or Netflix. Some of my favorite series have been Blacklist, Orphan Black, Vikings, Manifest, Wentworth, Virgin River and Queen of the South, The Handmaid's Tale and Yellowstone (RIP, IYKYK) :-)

Some of my favorite moves are The Notebook, The Proposal, P.S. I love You, Shawshank Redemption, Forrest Gump, 40 Year Old Virgin, Mission Impossible Movies, Bourne Identity Movies, James Bond Movies as well as Hang Over 1 and 2 just to name a few.

I collect some special edition books, cute snowman ornaments, magnetic bookmarks and beautifully made pottery coffee cups.

I mark swaps sent AFTER I officially drop swap off at my post office.

I RATE my partner as soon as I have received their swap.

Please contact me if you have not received your end. I usually send out my end of the swap prior to the due date.

I usually go to the post office when in doubt of postage costs. If ever you are mean to pay additional postage, contact me please!
