Mixaleena,

I love Paula Dean!! She is awsome!! thumbs_up.gif I hardly ever miss her show unless it's a re-run that I've already seen a million times!

My DH is from Albany, NY. He's a Damn Yankee cause he stayed in the South! icon_lol.gif His nieces & nephew's call me Aunt Daisy Mae (from Lil' Abner comics) because of my accent! cowboy.gif They love hearing me talk. It's very embarrsing at times! icon_redface.gif

I'm a very fast talker, most La people are. I try not to say ya'll much but it just comes out. My DH family says "you-uns" & "youts" all the time. I also have them saying "hey" & "Ya'll" now!! After 19 years of marriage they were bound to pick something up from me!! thumbs_up.gif My DH lost his NY accent a long time ago!! icon_biggrin.gif

My cousins in California say I have an accent. I'm like no I don't, I'm not from Louisiana or something. (no offense Tina icon_lol.gificon_biggrin.gif just kidding icon_smile.gif ) I listened to myself and compared to the west coasters, I have an east coast accent. I had so many people say when I was in Cali, "I love your accent" thumbs_up.gif

Hey Joe, if you want a real southern accent come to La & I'll teach it to you! icon_lol.gifthumbs_up.gif I love the East Coast accent so much!!

I didn't have this accent till I moved here in 1992. I used to pick on all my cousins & now I'm talking just like them! I have a lot of accents rolled into one big crazy one!! Lived in VA for 4 years (Langley AFB, Hampton, VA) & loved the accents there! My kids started talking while we were there. They started school in La. The school in my hometown wanted them to go to speech therapy! I said NO way!! They were so confused w/ the VA accent, my DH NY accent & my accent from all over that the teachers thought they had speech problems!! icon_biggrin.gif I told them to give them a month that that was all it was. Well I was right! Now they are talking just like the other kids! Poor dears!!! icon_wink.gif

Oh, my kids are 18 boy (you all basically know my son from all the stories I've told about him icon_cry.gif )& 15 daughter who is beautiful, smart & very sweet. Been married going on 19 years. Married young! Had kids young! Hopefully I won't be too old to have fun when the DH retires!! icon_biggrin.gif


Kathyg...

A back/ neck injury was what got me into cake decorating too that & a friend!! I got hurt on the job last May. No surgery thank God! I tried going back to work & wound up messing my back up even more. I finally quit my job in last Aug. I laid around in horrible pain till the end of Sept when my dear friend/Sis tcrema came to visit from England. She had been doing cakes for about 2 years. She talked me into taking classes. Funny thing is... My back/neck kills me but I still feel so relaxed while I'm decorating!! I'm hooked now!!! I worked as on a AF base in the BX. I worked in the Garden Center killing myself everyday picking up dirt, rocks, lawnmowers & other heavy stuff! Was I crazy or what?

Now I'm a cake decorator, Volunter Fireman (lady). & in July a school bus driver! Hope to get more cake orders out of the school bus thing!!

Ohhhh I forgot Joe... Being from Louisiana... you have to talk a lot too!!!!! icon_lol.gificon_biggrin.gificon_eek.gificon_wink.gifthumbs_up.gificon_lol.gificon_smile.gif Everyone says I do plenty of that!! icon_biggrin.gif

Hey guys...just wanted to join the discussion. I was born in sunny San Diego (Dad was a Marine), then we moved to a little city in VA called Woodbridge. After 6 years we moved back to San Diego and have been living here ever since. I'm not married, but my BF of 9 years and I have a little 2 year old daughter.

Grew up in Miami, FL, born in Santo Dominigo, Dominican Republic, and grandchild of two holocaust survivors. Lot of culture and good cooking in my family. I bake for my boyfriend mostly, we've been together for one year now, we met on my birthday, beat birthday present ever! I also bake and cook for my friends, we all go to UF and I'm the only one with a kitchen. Even though it's only a space of 6'x6' including counter space and appliances, and my stove is a pea green flashback from the 60's. Whatever works!!

Fredericksburg is where I go to shop!! LOTS of traffic up there. When you move to Fredericksburg, check out a great little cake supply store called Simply Sweet!




I live in Fredericksburg too! I like a lot of things about this area, but the traffic is terrible! At least there's no shortage of things to do in this area. We're only planning on being here another year, and then we're moving out West, where there's more SPACE! (and family) icon_smile.gif
Good luck on your move!

I am from San Angelo, TX now but originally from Denver City, TX (CO2 capital of the world. I am waiting to hear the damage from living there for 18 years).
I have been married 6 1/2 years and have 3 boys: 5, 2 1/2, and 8 months. I am a medical transcriptionist, but my cake decorating is taking over. I work more on cakes than my career!!
