1. Hi! My name is George. I live in N. My two lifelong passions have been biking and flying. Now I've moved on to my third passion, learning to read and speak the Irish language. I make my home with my wife, Lisa, and Dalmatian, Mathew, in N, New Jersey. This short biography is intended to convey a brief sketch of my family and our interests. I have a background in Computer Programming, having worked as a Systems Analyst for over 20 years. I also have a background in Education with certification on the secondary level from the State of New Jersey in 4 fields, 3 of them foreign languages. Beginning at age six and going on for any number of years, I lunched with my grand-mother, Rosemary Cluffley, since her house was closer to school than ours.

My bed is my safe place, and my darkening blind is my lifesaver, lol…

3. I was in such a rush to get the week going that I forgot to formally introduce myself! Hi, I’m Jennifer! I live in M, Canada. Currently, it’s very snowy where I am and that is certainly lending to my frame of mind when picking clay tidbits to share out. I have an 14yo son and live with my partner, another creative type who is also into computers. I’ve been doing polymer clay for 13 years and participating out on the net for a while. I joined up at ABC when I needed help with my polymer clay back in 2002 and never looked back! I teach, sell and write about polymer clay pretty much every day and days when I’m not making something are sad. My favourite techniques are caning or millefiori and making beads and jewellery that showcase it…
