Interview!

Spending way too much time @ Ryan's work :D, originally uploaded by laurensmashtoys.

I was reading Miss Laura's blog(www.mynewblogjourney.blogspot.com) the other day, as I can be known to do, because I love her little blog. Anywho, I stumbled upon her fun little interview thing! Here are my little answers :D

1-You make the cutest little and big plushies, how did you get started?

Oh goodness! Thanks! I actually got my start when I moved to California around June of 2006. My boyfriend, Ryan, is an artist and there would be times in our apartment that he would be drawing and I would be bored doing nothing. I hated that! I have always loved all things crafty since I was a little girl and couldn't bear the thought of my boy drawing and having a good artsy time and me like, watching t.v. or something. Anyways, I saw this little kitty that someone made, and I said to myself, I could make a pattern for something like that and make it for Ryan's nieces for Christmas! And I did that. After that, I caught the bug and have never looked back since! :D I have just honed my style and branched out a little. :D

2-Things seem to be changing in your life. Congratulations. How did you meet your new boyfriend?

Haha, he is actually my same boyfriend as before. We broke up for a little bit, but he and I just are 2 peas in a pod. We just get along so well and push each other in ways that no one can match. :D I met him at Gravity Games(a silly little skateboarding event) in Cleveland, Ohio in 2004. He was so cute and I told my boss " I love that boy" he has had my heart ever since.

3-What are the pros and cons of living in San Fran?

Oh geez!
Pros: living in the city, not driving, Tons of fun stuff to do all of the time, sunshine(lots more than in Ohio), the weather for sure!

Cons: its realllly expensive, I miss my mom!!

4-What is your favorite food ever?

I would tend to say tacos, but I have one super huge sweet tooth, I love anything sweet.

5-What makes you happy?

My family, my dog, my job, ice cream, sunshine, clean sheets, a full tummy, Brett Michaels when he is on bad t.v., making dinner for my boyfriend, crafting, sewing, learning a new skill!
