Hi, I'm Irene. I'm a 30 something mother to Garrett who was born in August 2009, Avery who was born in 2014 and wife to Benjamin. We've been married since 2004.
I'm a crafter and I've always loved creating things. I started with knitting and then got in to sewing while weaning my son. I do all sorts of crafting and creating and more often then not I post about it here with pictures.
I'm a champion saver and I love to get free things. I also love quality so it's probably a good thing I know where to get everything at a great discount. I often post about ways to get free or cheap things.
My husband and I are currently working on our own business called Granola Strolla. Slowly but surely I will have more information and links about it.
I have the BRCA2 mutation which gives me an 84% chance of having breast cancer. I had my preventative bilateral mastectomy on for January 11, 2013. I plan to chronicle this event for my own records and I hope that it helps others as well. It's a difficult decision to make but I know it's the right thing to do for my own health and my family.
I love all sorts of things and have very eclectic tastes.
You can find me on twitter and instagram @teawithfrodo
