About Sandra

sandra11.jpgWe have four children ranging in age from 12 to 20. The 20 year old has two children as well.

I have been married for 13 years to my best friend. We live in Ontario Canada and have known each other since we were teenagers.

I like doing crafty sorts of things and read and write a lot. Lately I’ve been into environmental issues, true crime and suspense/thrillers.

Cooking, cross-stitching, candle making and web design are my favorite hobbies and I find them all to be therapeutic.

You can also find me at Globally Green Living, Suite101 and Craft Gossip.
