Kri's Killer Kompilation: "It started out with a kiss...things are better if i stay...i love you, i love you, i love you...i'm thinking it's a sign...i can make believe that you're here tonight...but i'm just a notch in you're bedpost...my love how could you do this to me....call it bad weather...oh simple thing, where have you gone...the innocent can never last...this love has taken it's toll on me...we took a walk last night but it wasn't the same...I'm already gone...this is the dawning of the rest of our lives...i don't want to forget how your voice sounds...oh how i tried, to be just ok....lazy days help me through the hopeless haze....you had your chance, you blew it." whoa.

I'd like to meet:

these people.
People who look you in the eye when meeting for the first time.

Music:

I like catchy music. I like music with feeling. I like things I can understand and/or sing along to. I like 90's west coast hip-hop. I like conscious hip-hop music with beats that are surprisingly instrumental.

Movies:

I don't even know where to start. I like to laugh, and I'll probably cry if the dog dies. I don't like to be scared - I get nightmares. I also don't like to be kept in uncomfortable suspense when my heart is racing the whole time. I can be really jumpy. I like Pixar and gangster movies. I usually don't like comic book movies.

Television:

I wish I didn't....but sometimes I do it. I watch tv. Sometimes....

Books:

Eat Pray Love. How to Pick a Peach. The Oxford Companion to Food. La Rousse Gastronomique. The Best Recipe. The NEW Best Recipe. Martha Stewart Living Cookbook. The Encyclopedia of Garden Plants. My binders of recipes.

Heroes:

My parents. My sister. My family. My friends. My dogs, who eat, sleep and love unconditionally and without any worries.
