3. I am 37 years old and met my hubby at a party when i was 17... I was NOT looking for a relationship; having just gotten out of a bad one;BUT he kept pursuing me ... so here we are still married and in love after all these years 
Stephanie214 ~I am from a large family as well- 5 girls and 2 boys and there was never a dull moment in our home!
I have a daughter age 31, 2 boys ages 26 & 28, 1 granddaughter age 4.
I can sew, crochet somewhat, quilt, bake and decorate cakes, and hubby says I can cook pretty darn good! (of course that's why we are the size that we are now...

1. My husband and I met when I was 17 and he was 19. We both new all the same people but had never met each other until one day I picked up one of our mutual friends and he was with him. We started dating a month after meeting each other. After six years of dating we married in 1998 and have now been together a total of 13 years. We have 3 children ages 11, 3, and 1.
2. Since I have discovered this website about a month ago, I have been accused of spending more time on-line than with my family.lol.
3. I have always loved baking but I absolutely hate cooking. I am the baker, my husband is the chef. An incredible one I might add!!!
Wow!! I didnt realize I had so much in common with everyone!!

This is huge fun to read! You are an amazing community of folks - all so funny and clever.
Here are a few random thoughts about me..
1. My husband and I met 25 years ago in a bar - but it's not what you think! He was the bartender and I was the bookeeper. He was sooo cute and shy, and I was sooo intrigued. He finally caught me, but I sure had to work at it! We were married on Valentines Day.
2. Our boys (now 16 and 17) came to our family through 2 separate "open adoptions." I was in the delivery room when both were born and shared the joy with their birthmoms. Amazing women - our families will always stay in touch. In all, there are 5 children of adoption in our family - our 2 kids, my 'baby' brother who was born in Mexico 30 years ago, and a niece and nephew that arrived from Vietnam in the 1977 'baby-lift.'
3. I was a SAHM for 2 years, but for 15 years I have been the 'breadwinner' in the family, and my DH has been home with the kids. He has been disabled for much of that time - but remains the 'Rock of Gilbralter' for our family and anchors us all.
Ok, who's next??
My turn!
1. I am 36 years old and am the youngest of 5 kids. The others are all so much older than me that they are kinda more like Aunts and Uncles than siblings and the only one sort of close ( 6 years older) was my sweet brother Marlon, he passed away last year. I miss him so much!
I have two daughters Nikki (12) and Hannah (5) they are wonderful. Nikki is even tempered and a joy to be around, Hannah is pure evil...lmao and will keep you cracking up at all times! They are from a previous marriage but their stepdad will tell you they are HIS girls.So much for the family part.
2. I love DAVE MATTHEWS BAND and am pretty much a music junkie. Oh yeah ,whoever it was earlier who said "Buffy" was the greatest...my nephew Robert Hall (ALMOST HUMAN FX), did all the FX for Buffy and Angel! The "Hollywood Wedding" photos are from his cake.I also live in a lil country club neighborhood and have the soccer mom hair and vehicle but have a couple of pretty intense tattoos too ..hehe
3.I am a bath and body addict and have every fragrance they come out with...100's of bottles..no kidding it is obscene! LOL
Sorry about posting twice. I think my son got a hold of my keyboard before I had a chance to exit out of this forum. He's 1 and way worse than a terrible two!!! 
I am not sure how to delete once you have posted a comment. Any help for a newbie???
-My husband and I met in college -He was dating my roomate and I was dating his 
. Nothing happened until 8 years later we married after 2 1/2 yrs dating and have been married for 7 years.
-I hate bad drivers and selfish people 
.
-I like men more then women for friendships- women are way to catty 
for me!!!!!!!
okay, i want to play too but mine aren't quite as interesting as some of yours are!
1) i was adopted by my wonderful parents when i was 6 days old and now have 2 birthdays ... the day i was born and the day they received me. when i was younger it was great to have twice the b-day but now i'm not so sure!!!
2) i met the love of my life on line, it was one of those fluke things that turned into something wonderful. we lived about 2 1/2 hours away from each other and the first time we actually met i knew i was going to spend the rest of my life with him, no doubt in my mind ... then i cried for 3 days because he had just gotten out of a bad marriage and been left alone w/ his 2 kids and "wasn't sure what he wanted". i told him it was worth it to me and we would take things as slow as he needed to ... we just got married this may
3) i envy the talent on this panel, i thought i was pretty good but now feel totally inadequate! that's okay though because i am amazed and hungry for more every time i'm here and it makes me want to try new things that i never imagined could be done!! it's making me so adventurous my hubby is scared to death
ok now it my turn
I'm 39 and not planning on getting any older than that. Have 2 daughters 18, 16
I met my DH while starting a new job he was the one training me for it. Funny thing about that was I had known his father since I was a little girl. When he moved down here his father tried to set us up on a date but it never happened years later we met and we have been happily married for 14 yrs.
I also love different craft but cakes are my passion. I am looking forward to going to culinary school one day in the futer.
ooohhh
-met fiance when i was 17. got together 1 year later & been together sine then. engaged last april, plan to marry late '06
-25 yrs old born in clark afb in the phillipines and oldest of 4
-always wanted to do wilton cake courses. finally did aug. '04 and love this site(which i'm on everyday) only do cakes right now for friends & family who love them. (but i never do)
1. i am 24 years old and NOT looking forward to turning 25 and I have two girls who are three years and 8 months.
2. I've been married four years to a wondeful husband who works two jobs just so I can stay home with our children.
3. I am going to night school so I can become an elementary school teacher. I would love to teach 3rd or 4th grade. I have three more classes until I graduate and get my two year degree. The two more years for my Bachalor degree! YEA FOR ME!!
My turn..
I'm 38 & hubby is 44, we've been married for 18 yrs, 3 kids son 18, daughter 15, & an adopted son (lives w/ us too, who's a friend of my 18 yr old son) who's 17. Very proud of my family!
I'm a SAHM for now... trying to pass my school bus driving license test!! So I can be a school bus driver. Right now I'm mostly doing my cakes! Love it!
I'm a very outgoing, people person! I've never met a stranger! I'm everyone's Dear Abby. People come to me for advice. Wish I had advice for myself I usually say what I want IF it doesn't hurt other's feelings. I'm very stubborn! I dislike people who brag about the things they have in their life & brag about the talents they have. I love humble people!! I love people who have a passion for life & a passion for helping others. I love God!!
I've wanted a tattoo since I was about 16. Finally got one about 3 years ago. Butterfly w/ roses. Love it! I want another one too!! Me & tcrema have matching tattoo's!! Best friends!! 
Her's is bigger though! When I get another tatoo it will probably be a turtle. Haven't found one I like yet.
I have that same dream most of you have... Owning a cake store!!! Everytime I'm out on the town I find myself looking at all the empty stores wishing that it was mine!! Always looking for the perfect spot! One day it just might come true!!
HOLD TIGHT TO YOUR DREAMS!!! ONE DAY THEY WILL BECOME REALITY!!!
I'm a Big Brother, LOST, Survivor, CSI, & Amazing Race addict...... In that order!! The only time I watch tv is when those shows are on. I take that back... I watch Food TV a lot!! My fav too!
Can you tell I like to talk too?????? Love reading all the stories!!
This was a great idea! It's neat to read so many interesting things about everyone!
My turn...
I am a SAHM to fraternal twin boys who will be 3 in Dec. and a girl who is 14 months. We are still debating about having another baby, but will have to go thru fertility treatments again and not sure we're up for that.
I NEVER make my bed (unless company is coming- and even then I often just shut the bedroom door).
DH and I are hooked on Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy. We don't even answer the phone when they are on!
This is fun!!!
Ok.... I am a SAHM to 16 month old Cooper, 5 year old Emma, and 8 year old Skyler and I am about to turn 30 this year!!!
I am adopted.... birth parents placed an ad on a church bulletin board!
I am addicted to ZUMBA.... it is a work out class that includes all kids of dance. It is so much fun!!!!!
I love this sight. It is so nice to be able to get tips and encouragment from such talented cake makers.
Great topic!
1- Even though I have the girls I would still have more. Only thing is I stand a chance of having another multiple birth!
2- I never knew I could decorate cakes, it just kinda happened. Now I'm addicted and there is no going back!
3- Although I do have a university degree it is a little on the unusual side of things...I have a Specialized Honours BA in East Asian Studies. I actually studied Chinese for 4 years! Can't speak hardly a word of it now though!

Here goes...
I am a REALITY tv junkie! I steer away from drama in my own life and get the fix of others! The more bickering, backstabbing, etc. the better!
I think I have Adult ADD. My son and I are temporarily fixated on SUDOKU puzzles. If you haven't tried them, you should!
Above every thing else in the world, my best efforts are put towrds raising healthy, sucessful, productive members of society. Right, now they are 12, 10 and 6.

No problem newbie...gotcha covered!!
How do you ruin instant pudding???
My hubs makes dinner occasionally (like, three or four times a year) but the rest of the time, the kitchen is my domain (I cook dinner 7 days a week)
I dont know how he did it but I saw it with my own eyes... only allowed to make frozen pizzas and use the microwave
What a great thread....I love these. OK, here goes....
1) love the outdoors, camping and fishing, most especially the North
2) signing up for a belly dance class next month!
3) planning on retiring from first career, just as soon as I decide on what my second one will be. Cake decorating definitely will be part of second career.

Well, guess I'll join the fun ...

I'm happily married and live with my DH in a house built in 1790 in a small village in Denmark
2). I'm secretly in love with Spike (Buffy/Angel) - well sort of secretly, my husbands suspects it and accepts it
