Hi, I'm Amanda AKA the Vintage Dutch Girl. Welcome to a slice of my life.
Why Vintage Dutch Girl?
Just because, that's why....
- I am Dutch by heritage
- I am of the female variety...meaning I'm a girl
- I love me some garage sales and thrift stores
- I also love crafting in all ways, especially if that means shirking housework
- Finding new uses for older things appeals to me
- I am also rather "vintage" in my values as well
I am a (currently Retired OB RN) stay at home Mama to two little ones. My first born, Bubbalu, is almost four and Lil Chick is almost two. Their day to day care and antics keep me running like a headless chicken. I de-stress by exercising but indulge in chocolate and mochas. I unwind by watching girly movies but can bring it when playing Settlers or Trivial Pursuit. And don't challenge me to Mad Gab...you WILL lose. I'm a music junkie with an embarrassing penchant for gangsta but dig a country twang. Sudoku keeps me sane and coffee keeps me energized. I read anything I can get my hands on, but prefer beach books with sappy love plots. I blog for cheap therapy and sew to release my inner craftyness. My husband treats me like the queen of his palace, he is the king of my dreams. My kids keep me young and my faith keeps me grounded. This is a slice of my life.
