1. As Joel loves to point out that I have fingers for toes... I do. They are super long and GORGEOUS!! J/K. But on occasions where I am holding Allegra and need to get something off the ground, I just grab it with my toes and kick my leg back and grab it. It works well. I know, kind of freakish!
2. My Idaho friends and family probably know this but it is true, I am a RED NECK at heart! I had a mullet in kindergarten (see attached picture), I road dirt bikes and 4-wheelers, I love country music (although I have branched out a great deal), and I did have a sweet pair of cowboy boots and wranglers that I would wear to all of the country concerts I went to w/ my friends and family!
3. I have always wanted to be a counselor of some sort because I love to help people and listen to them. I don't know when this will ever happen because I to scared to take the G-Met (don't even know how to spell it!) because I hate math so much!
4. I can speak Spanish fairly well. I don't like to, but I can. I think my family thinks I don't know what's going on when Joel and his family speak Spanish, but I do. I took 2 year of it in high school and three years in college. I just think I sound dumb, so I don't use that skill is often as I should. Actually I feel more comfortable talking to complete strangers in Spanish than I do Joel's family. I have no idea why. Yo Puedo hablar en Espanol People!!!
5. I used to really want to be a back up dance for some hip hop singer. Kind of like the fly girls on "In Living Color". Unfortunately, having children has made me completely loose my groove. I used to be one of the first ones on the dance floor, and now I feel like I have two left feet. I guess I should just take up drinking in order to dance again. Actually, I dance pretty good for myself in the bathroom mirror... doors locked! J/K!
6. I LOVE to cook!!! I guess I got my inspiration from my father-in-law, Norberto. He is an amazing cook and even owned his own restaurant. I love being creative and making up my own recipes. I love making gourmet meals and lots of Italian foods. My favorite shows for inspiration are "Take Home Chef" and "Everyday Italian". What I don't love about cooking is having two little ones hanging on me while I'm doing it. I also hate cleaning up the mess!!!
I'm sorry family, this incriminates you too! But it's all I had. I am the youngest one. Like the bowl-cut mullet look I'm sporting! This is child abuse! I was what... 4 or 5? I had no say in this look!

Do not tell me you have lost your groove??? Have your Dad get out the home videos for inspiration. I'd love to sample some of your cooking. I will find my old poems and post them. I think I know where they are it has been a long time. Coming soon.
