Here I am in Kentucky, having come full circle in 53 years on this planet! Born at Fort Knox,and then spent the next 50 years in Wisconsin. It was nice there, but this place is a little bit of heaven on earth. I need to be occupied with something all the time, so I work three days a week in a small office. It is creative so I enjoy it! People seem to accept me and my Yankee accent so I am fitting in well. (They don't realize yet that I am a crazy person!).
I've been a member at Zaar for over six years now, and I can't recall life without it. You'll find me here every day, or in the kitchen, or tending to my Experimental Gardens (yup, that's my "yard"!). We have 12 acres to "play" in so I try to plant the most obnoxious, invasive, tenacious plants I can find, then just stand back and enjoy (sometimes) the results. I haven't planted any kudzu yet, but have been sorely tempted.
I will eat anything, although I have a definite preference for crunchy, salty things. Hey, as long as I have my own teeth, I'm gonna GO for it! There will be plenty of time for bananas and tofu in my later years!
If given the chance, I would live on appetizers and soup. All you have to do is say "taste this" and I will eat it before I ask what it is. I am challenged by cooking for my DH, who has to examine and smell everything before tasting. He likes his food color-coordinated (no green allowed!).
Not a big chocolate fan and don't have much of a sweet tooth - must be the wine!
