I like full skirts, pink makeup, and drinking a good cup of coffee.
I like to eat Tofurky, strawberry-rhubarb pie, and vegetarian sushi.
I dislike it when people step on the back of my shoes while I'm walking.
I have been a vegetarian since I was four years old, when I realized that chicken came from chickens.
I firmly believe that there is beauty everywhere.
I am a newlywed, and I totally dig being a wife. I also really like my husband.
My mom calls me Jillybean sometimes.
Sometimes I like to people-watch, and try to find the most attractive quality in everyone I see.
I haven't decided whether I spell the short-form of my name Jill or Gill.
Either way, it's pronounced Jill.
I spend each day trying to be more Christ-like, and trying to show his love to the world.
I love the word 'gamine', but have never said it out-loud.
Even though I know I don't really have anything to worry about, I am a self-admitted worrywart.
I don't really like the idea of countries as a whole, but I am a proud Canadian.
I believe that there is an effective, non-violent solution to every problem.
I am, and always have been, a good girl (but hopefully not in an irritating way).
I dream of shaking things up. I want to change the world.
Here's some truth. Jul 11
Sometimes, when no one is around, I pretend I am a ballerina.
I mostly just pliƩ and spin around with my arms out in a circle shape.

LOST, The Office, Friends, Sugar with Anna Olson, Design Inc., House Hunters, Antiques Roadshow, House, Grey's Anatomy, Freaks and Geeks, and any sugar/cake competition on The Food Network. You might not believe me, but they are INTENSE!

Eating, reading, baking, crafting, loving, drinking coffee, singing badly, collecting, making lists of my favourite things.
