About me

Gender Female
Location Portland, OR, United States
Introduction I love life. I am a homemaker living in Portland, Oregon with a dashing husband, brilliant daughter, hungry turtle, flock of chickens, and curious pup in the cutest little house I could hope for. I want nothing more than to be a perfect housewife, with dinner on the table and flawless lipstick and perfect children eating wholesome homegrown food in my chemical-free house full of only the simplest necessities and all the love and friends and intelligent conversation I can handle. Is that too much to ask?
