J'embrasse (I embrace) :
paint (any kind), kids, laughing, dreaming, dancing before my LORD, hanging with my baby sister, still waiting for Mr. Right - and not giving up or settling for less than I deserve, being vegetarian, knitting, sewing, paper, ink, printing, acid bath etching, designing clothes, simplicity, deconstruction, jewelry designing, whimsy, beauty, oddity, poetry, spunk, the unusual, the obsurd, I would love to study modern/lyrical/contemporary dance - but only for FUN, not competition - going to movies and concerts, the use of good judgement(some would call it wisdom),antiques, vintage, renovation, being happy, recycling, lilies, jasmine, lavender, gardenias, green living, green tea, kelly green, martian green, green beans, mall walking,yoga and kickboxing - because sometimes you need to have options.
