I am here for Friends

About Me

Well, I decided that I finally needed to make a MySpace page (all the kids are doing it) so here it is. I graduted from Purdue with a degree in Food Science and my husband and I moved to Nebraska where I worked as a Quality Control Engineer for a major food manufacturer, after a couple of years I transfered with the comapany and moved to Iowa, where we've been for the past 4 years. I just resigned from my position and am moving to California to work for a ice cream company in Purchasing. I have always loved cooking and even have my own heritage recipe website. My husband has been a skydiver for the past 11 years, and I finally started skydiving this past summer, and I've had a great time with it.

My Interests

Cooking, collecting family recipes, skydiving, SCUBA Diving, watching movies, dancing, growing grapes and making wine (my concord wine is absolutely wonderful) and my 2 wonderful cats (Amber and Sage)

I'd like to meet:

Alton Brown (Food Network chef who cooks with science)

Music:

I like most types of music, especially classic and modern rock.

Movies:

I love movies (not horror movies)- Some of my recent favorites have been The Lake House, Over the Hedge, Stranger Than Fiction (I would say that Stranger Than Fiction is the feel good movie of the year), Catch and Release is a new favorite, etc.

Television:

I'm not much of a TV Series watcher, but Dexter on Showtime this year has been excellent. It is a very unique show.

Books:

I've been reding the Lemony Snicket series and I love Harry Potter. They're easy reading books, but they're worth reading. I also love Dorothy Parker poetry.

Heroes:

People who follow their dreams, and my mother and grandmother who won their battles with breast cancer.

Relocation to California

Hey- for friends who I wasn't able to e-mail, I have accepted a job in Bakersfield, California.  I'll be working in Purchasing for Research and Development, so I'll be doing something completely ...
