Love this post! A great way for new readers like me to get acquainted with you! :)
Yay! So glad you filled this out! I feel like I know you better now. :-)
I've always wanted to learn the cello too, but I seem to be incapable of doing separate things with each hand. That might make it a little difficult :)
Hello, Columbus! :-) Love your blog and saying hello from Clintonville. I play old-time fiddle, but I'd love to learn cello, too.
What a fun way to share some things about yourself. I will be heading over to Diary of a Dreamer. I love that your best friend is you mom! My Mom and I grow closer each year and when I stopped to think about it she's my best friend too!
these are always fun because i love finding out more about new friends. :)
Such a nice idea to write an "ABC of me"...love it!
I liked your ABC's.
I spent summers in TX and then lived there for a few years.
Your party dip/salad sounds great!
Cyanide smells? Didn't know that.
Fun stuff to know about you!
What a wonderful idea! You should find a way to print this for family members. I love it.
"37-almost to the top of the hill."
It probably seems so, but I tell you from my perspective, you're maybe halfway there, if that. :-)
Thanks for sharing your ABC's. I'll try to gather my courage and post an ABC as well.
Su-sieee! Mac
