I don’t plan on tagging anyone. Newton tagged me, though.

Here are seven things about me that you may not know. This is better than the 25 things I did on facebook!

1. I am obsessed with the concepts of pregnancy/childbirth/nursing. I would love to be a midwife or a lactation consultant. I can’t imagine a more rewarding career than helping women to accept, appreciate, and experience the beautiful design of our bodies.

2. I love cleanliness. I like order. I want my environment to be peaceful at home. Having kids makes this really tough.

3. I seriously miss working out. I used to have time most days of the week, and now I simply don’t. I miss it.

4. I got paddled once at school when I was in kindergarten. It was for talking out of turn. I think it may have been the same day that I emptied an entire bottle of ketchup on this kid Nick’s hot dog. I hated Nick for some reason, and so I thought that it would be funny to destroy his lunch. I got paddled by my teacher, Ms. Hawk, in the hallway in front of another teacher. It was a paddleball paddle. It didn’t hurt, but the embarrassment lasted a lifetime.

5. I kinda thought I would be an attractive “catch” because I enjoy domestic tasks. I remember being 17 and thinking that I was the only one who LIKED cleaning because things would be fresh and nice afterward. And I assumed that boys wouldn’t date girls who wear glasses, so maybe my “in” would be that I could cook, clean, and sew.

6. I don’t really see the big deal with white flour. It tastes great, and I eat enough fiber during the day. So what if I use white flour in most of my baked goods??? I have no intention of stopping.

7. I don’t like scary movies. It makes no sense to be afraid or overloaded with unnecessary fake gore. I don’t understand why people would pay good money to feel afraid. I feel like I have worked to make my environment a place where I don’t feel afraid…

So that’s seven things. Back later with a food post.
