About Me

Hi, I'm Christina, and I'm a Hodge Podger.  I first knew that I was addicted to variety when I was a little girl.  I guess it all began because a very wise man once said to me, "Everything in moderation."  He also insisted that no one can possibly have a good day unless he's learned something new.  And so was born my addiction to variety.

I've moved around a bit and am now living in my ninth state.  I have taught in both public and private schools, served in the Marine Corps as a clarinetist, homeschooled my two wonderful boys, and currently serve as the principal clarinetist for an Army reserve band.  I currently have a bachelor's in Music Education and am working toward my MBA with a focus in accounting.  I enjoy all most things craft related, love cooking and baking, finding new adventures for the family, being organized (can we say Type A?) and visiting local wineries.  My husband and sons benefit the most from my creative endeavors, well, gulp, when there aren't too many dishes afterward.

I'm really excited that you decided to visit my blog.  I'm always open to new suggestions for recipes, craft projects, books to read, and places to visit.  Feel free to leave a comment with the state you live in, or any comment for that matter.  I'd love to get to know you, my reader, more too so email me anytime!
