8 Interesting Things About Me

By Cindy | August 22, 2007

I’ve been tagged by Firm This Fanny to share 8 interesting things about me. Here goes…

1. I enjoy cooking from scratch. Cakes, pies, breads and anything I find interesting in the cookbooks. I’m also a full butter and sugar user for good ol’ fashioned recipes. I rarely find a substitution that equates to the full flavor of the ingredients used by my grandmother and generations past.

2. I lived in Salamanca, Spain for a month. As part of a foreign language exchange, I lived with a local family, attended a class and visited Toledo, Madrid, Barcelona (my favorite city), and other small towns along the western boarder of Spain.

3. My son was born in a Japanese birthing clinic. My first born experience was fantastic. The clinic was like a little Bed and Breakfast. After his birth, the staff brought in a hairdresser to do all the women’s hair. They provided gourmet food. My husband was jealous. The rooms were little havens filled with flowers, natural light and nicely decorated. It was first class service.

4. I am a Flylady Flybaby. I discovered Flylady about four years ago. I absolutely love her Control and Holiday Journals. I haven’t yet mastered the day to day routines she has in place, but I do get dressed to the shoes on most days and the bed is made everyday.

5. I took ballroom dance lessons in college. I had a grand time learning all the different dances from the witty, little instructor. Her favorite stories were about the times she taught Fred Astair!

6. I ran the 1999 Marine Corps Marathon in a little over five hours. I promised myself then I would never run a marathon again. Here I am now, planning to run a half-marathon in April 2008 and probably pursuing the full marathon a year later! Crazy, I know.

7. In the Navy, my favorite job was Strike Officer. I was in charge of Tomahawk strike teams and the division handling the Vertical Launch System.

8. I stood on stage in Broadway during a Cats performance. I performed in theater throughout high school and in college. I was thrilled to be able to go on stage during the intermission of the Broadway performance. It just sounds neat! I was on stage in Broadway!
