Ohhh hi! My name is Melissa and I currently reside in lower Manhattan. I work at a really great company, am very fond of my saucy side and have a slight obsession with pens.

You can generally find me with an iPhone in hand, an organized binder in my bag and a thousand receipts I never threw out.

I'm pretty snarky, incredibly happy and generally ready for some swapping.

I spend my free time-- - reading! - cooking way too much food. - spending hours on foodgawker. - looking for vegetarian recipes my boyfriend would like, as well as me! If I am in a recipe swap with you, the only food I don't really eat is seafood :) meat recipes are just fine.

I make a mean latte ;)

I am not interested in International Swaps anymore, which is really unfortunate since there are so many fun International items I would like to swap for! But, the mail takes such a long time and receiving a '1' rating for a late package really disappoints me since I do not hand deliver them myself and they are at the mercy of the USPS. :(

my taste in music has not changed much in the last 10 years.

bane. bleeding through. kind of like spitting. thursday. tim kasher. pop punk all day, every day. catch me listening to 90s hip hop, too.

fem-lit.

I am really interested in joining matchbox swaps! Once I have a ratings under my belt, I'd love to create my own swaps. I am not so interesting in postcard swaps, but I am very interested in kawaii swaps!
