Things You May Not Know About Me:
My hubby won’t play games of backgammon with me anymore. When I was young my parents played backgammon almost every night while they watched TV. I got really good at it. He hasn’t won a game. He hasn’t even gotten close. So he quit. I’m rather smug about it.
I love to cook and I’m good at it. I read cookbooks like novels, front cover to back page. I combine things from multiple recipes to make my own when I’m bored and the budget has groove room. If I’m freaked out about something, I usually cook.
I was born without an appendix. It’s just not there. When I was in high school I had to have some medical testing done. They thought it had ruptured. Upon closer investigation it was determined that I never had one.
I have a Southern accent when I’ve had too much to drink or when I need to butter someone up to get something free or sometimes just when I am really relaxed. My grandmother and I spent a lot of time together when I was learning to talk and it’s very natural for me to slip into her southern accent even though I was born and raised in California. It confuses people often and they ask where I am from.
Things I want to do before I die (in random order):
Make a difference in the life of a child.
Travel the world with my husband.
Master the bane art of baking.
Pay off all my debt and own my own home.
Become a published author.
Things I cannot do:
Make Cornbread (it’s a long story).
Break Dance.
Teleport…despite popular belief I don’t splice either.
Not plan. I can’t just do something. I need a plan.
Watch sitcom television.
Things I can do:
Multi-task while entertaining small children.
Cook for 50 people without breaking a sweat.
Write.
My job extremely well.
Talk to just about anyone regarding just about anything and have them enjoy it.
Things I love about my Husband:
His kindness towards others.
His competitive nature.
His patience and laid back attitude.
His love of his family, especially when he’s playing with his niece and nephew.
Things I say most often:
I love you.
Sarah knock it off!! (that’s my cat)
I know.
thingy… as in that thingy over there on top of the thingy that makes our thingy change the channels.
Movies I love:
Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
Holiday Inn
American Outlaw
The Harry Potter Movies

I'm on a Harry Potter kick right now. I held off reading the books for the simple reason that I didn't want to be a lemming. I sat through a couple of the movies to please my husband, and I became hooked. Now I'm reading the books. I find myself waking up really early just to get some more reading time in.
I've never played backgammon.
I can't bake either... especially pie crust.
You'll have to teach me some cooking tricks.
