The Blog Game Begins

It’s a cold and snowy one in Jeff City Mo this morning, but so very beautiful outside. Most might not like snowy weather conditions, but I’m not one of them. I know how to drive, unlike most of the others that were passing me on the road this morning, driving way too fast. I love when the snow sticks to the trees, as it makes for a beautiful setting.

My friend and fellow blogger Kenzie tagged me in a little Blog Game. So, I don’t’ want to break the cycle so here we go:

Here are 7 random things about me (that you probably don't care about):
1.) I have two other blogs I author besides Home Cooking. A Look at Missouri Farmers’ Markets and Missouri Organics InterActive.
2.) My all-time favorite candy is Horehound, which is an old remedy that is soothing to the respiratory system and is a natural expectorant. The candy can always be found in my candy jar at work.
3.) I have an addiction to crocheting scarves. It’s all I do at night when I’m at home. Ask any of my friends, I bet they either have a scarf or a afghan I’ve made for them.
4.) The place I would like most to live overseas is Australia. I lived there for 5 months while in high school for a National FFA Exchange Program and I miss the people, the food, the landscape and most of all the beer.
5.) When I was a little girl I was the biggest tomboy! In fact, my mother stuck me in ballet and tap dance class because she thought it would help me be more lady like. I think it worked!
6.) I love to sing, but I’m not very good at it. (Ask my husband, as he is the only one that gets to see me in rare form) I sing all the time, especially during the holidays. The only music I listen to is holiday music. Even when it’s not the holidays and I’ve had a bad day I put in a holiday cd and jam out.
7.) I have a dream for my husband and I to start a peach and apple orchard in southwest Missouri someday. I want to also incorporate raspberries and blackberries and have a you-pick operation on the farm. Plus, I want the farm to be open to school children so I can teach our younger generation about the farming industry, so they know where their food comes from.

Now I’m tagging:
1.) Sarah: AgriMissouri Showcase
2.) Sarah: Front Porch Rocker
3.) Michelle: Down on the Dairy
4.) Steve: SMays
5.) Amy: Delicious by Nature
6.) Danene: Missouri Wine Girl
7.) JyLnC: A Cup of Joe With a View

Have fun with the game and don’t break the chain. Season’s Greetings Ya’ll!
