What Tarot Card Are You?
My family - my husband and our eight children. I had three (Derek, Travis and Kevin) and he had three (Lucas, Misty and Daniel) and we have two together (Christian and Tucker). Yep, that's right - 7 boys, count-em, 7 and one girl. Only the three youngest still live at home with us.
I also love anything to do with words: reading and writing. I was born with a book in my hands, and have been writing since I was 5. I currently enjoy writing poetry, but have started several novels which are currently in a filing cabinet in storage.
For two years I wrote a bi-weekly food column for my local newspaper, which is, coincidentally, another passion of mine. I love food, but nothing too exotic or extreme. Simple, pleasurable comfort food is what it's all about. There's nothing that says home and love like chicken pot pie or home-made lasagne.
Or chocolate. I adore chocolate, really really good chocolate, like Daboga or Endangered Species, or Harry and David's truffles, or Cary's absolutely delectable toffee. I just discovered a farmer's market that sells Callebaut chocolate chips (heaven!). Of course, there's Ghiradelli which is good anywhere but best eaten in San Francisco and for hot chocolate there's nothing better than Scharffen Berger. Did I say I like chocolate?
I also enjoy making my own jewelry, particularly beading and wire work; I play the piano, love to listen to music, love to hike when I have the time and the energy, and love to shop.

Movies:
I love movies, but I'd rather go to live theatre (especially musical and Shakespeare) any day of the week and twice on Sundays: Les Miz, Phantom of the Opera, Jesus Christ Superstar, Cats, Once Upon a Mattress, Little Shop of Horrors, Threepenny Opera, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum; and movies: Lord of the Rings (all), Star Wars (all), The Fugitive, Independence Day,

Television:
You Are Expressionism
Moody, emotional, and even a bit angsty... you certainly know how to express your emotions.
At times, you tend to lack perspective on your life, probably as a result of looking inward too much.
This introspection does give you a flair for the dramatic. And it's even maybe made you cultivate some artistic talents!
You have a true artist's temperament... which is a blessing and a curse.
What Art Movement Are You?
Unfortunately, because of my illness, I do spend a lot of time resting. Usually the TV's on, but I'm usually reading and/or writing at the same time, as well as chasing my two younger children, fixing dinner, and trying to rest and relax after work. For sheer entertainment, I enjoy watching all the CSIs: Las Vegas, New York, Miami (in that order), Law and Order, CI, SVU, Smallville, StarGate (yes, Steve, I do like StarGate), Star Trek (all), Top Chef, Project Runway, Trading Spaces, While You Were Out, What Not to Wear, Firefly, Dr Who, Monty Python, BBC mysteries, and old musicals.
Books:
Actually, I guess my reading preferences are pretty eclectic, having been raised in a book store. But, my favorite books would be mysteries mysteries and more mysteries - anything by Martha Grimes, Elizabeth George, Minette Walters, Ruth Rendell, PD James, Diana Mott Davidson, Deborah Crombie, Reginald Hill, Colin Dexter, Robert Barnard, Dorothy Simpson. And of course the classics like Agatha Christie, Ngaio Marsh, Josephine Tey, Patricia Wentworth ... way too many to name.
I love Winston Graham's novels of Cornwall: the Poldark Saga. Gone with the Wind, of course. The Hobbit, the Lord of the Rings, A Wrinkle in Time (anything by Madeline L'Engle), George RR Martin series A Song of Ice and Fire (A Game of Thrones, A Clash of Kings, A Storm of Swords - still have to read A Feast of Crows). Jasper Fforde (The Eyre Affair, etc, The Big Over Easy), Edward Rutherford (Princes of Ireland, Rebels of Ireland, Sarum, Russka, London, The Forest), Gregory Maguire (Wicked, Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister). Anything by Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, the Brontes...
What Your Soul Really Looks Like
You are a wanderer. You constantly long for a new adventure, challenge, or eve a completely different life.
You are a grounded person, but you also leave room for imagination and dreams. You feet may be on the ground, but you're head is in the clouds.
You believe that people see you for how you are, not how you look. But deep down, you know that's not exactly true.
Your near future is still unknown, and a little scary. You'll get through wild times - and you'll textually enjoy it.
For you, love is all about caring and comfort. You couldn't fall in love with someone you didn't trust.
