Sorry, I'm not suited for this train at all. lol. Don't enjoy cooking or baking at all.

But I'll totally stalk everyone

[snuffaluffagus]

And this is soooo my sort of train! I have to wait a day or two before confirming though. Recieved a job offer today and need to wait until I have more details before I commit to this train.

I am thinking the categories are broad enough that I can make them fit other stuff

[super807]

Totally love this train theme, and would love to ride, please. I am totally exhausted tonight. We just finished painting our kitchen cabinets, and now need to put kitchen back together. But I think I will be able to get a wish list together tomorrow.

Am currently riding the Keep or Exchange train, and a VWT.

You must not be kitchen illiterate like me. lol. Or maybe I just have a mental block. lol

I hope this train fills! Venuila is amazing!

[Inlovewithblue]

Not currently riding any other trains (all just finished).

I think I might give this a try. I've never done a package train before but I've been stalking a few threads and they look super fun. I don't have any kind of wishlist and I'm not even sure where to start. I'm heading to visit my parents this weekend so if the boarding is still open by Sunday I will board(pending approval) and try to get a wishlist together.
