I like sewing and crafting and anything creative. Over the years I have worked at two different fabric and craft stores and enjoyed every single minute. Not only do I have a stash of wonderful fabrics and supplies, but some great tools too. I don't do as much as I want to do because I get on the computer and don't have the good sense to get off. I guess that could be considered a hobby too.

It's funny; I just submitted a helium article on "How I Relax" which was supposed to include hobbies, but I don't really have hobbies. I make money at things other people consider hobbies.

Hey, I like that. Making money is my new hobby and I am going to have as much fun at it as I possibly can!

I love to cross stitch, I have recently started doing my cross stitch after taking a lot of time off it and I am glad I have started it again!

Hi there Enola.
Well i have quite a few hobbies, even if some i get to do only very rarely - like drawing. I used to think that i really suck at drawing until i tried doing something i really like - the little mermaid for example, which turned out great :P
I also like to read books (comedies in general but also others), play on the computer, earn on the computer, watch movies (both at home and in cinemas), listen to music (luckily this we can do even when we don't have free time and others.
In the rare group of activities that i like but can't do to often i can also include dancing and playing with snow (snow angels, snow balls fight, snow men etc).

Thank you for the best response.
Well i can't say i have a favorite author, but i did enjoy the books of the following:
C. S. Lewis - Narnia (i loved the 6 books, the 7th was a bit strange in the end...)
Sophie Kinsella - I loved all her books so far (the 5 Shopaholic series; Do you remember me ?; The Undomestic Goddess; Can you keep a secret ?) - so i guess she is qualified as a favorite, right ? - I am waiting for her new book to appear in my country.
I also liked other books in the Chick Lit collection from various authors. I have also read books of Nicholas Sparks (PS. I Love You, The Notebook, Message in a bottle, A walk to remember) - so he may enter the favorite as well.
I have read books in various domains, and i think i have plenty more to do so. At the moment i have quite a few books to read. Tomorrow i am picking up the package from England's amazon - i ordered Harry Potter (the complete collection).
