Where did you grow up? Various “Hicktowns” in Missouri, then St. Louis.

Follow any sports teams? Are you kidding? I’m a sports nut. Cardinals, Rams, Tigers.

Hobbies? Besides watching & attending sporting events? Like to play golf, but don’t take it seriously at all. If you saw my golf game you’d know why. Love working in my backyard. Playing with my dogs, Cocoa Chenille & Charlie Bell. Attempting to duplicate the recipes from the Food Network – “30 Minute Meals”, “Everyday Italian”, “Barefoot Contessa” are my favorites & lovin’ the new one “At Home with the Neelys”.

Food weakness? Starch! I live for Starch. Pasta, Pizza, Rice, Bread. Give me Italian or Chinese 8 days a week.

Favorite places to grab a bite? Shakespeare’s for pizza – of course!  63 Diner for down-home cookin’.  Flatbranch – love their beer & bayou pasta.  Love havin’ a steak at Longhorn (I know it’s a chain, but I love their steaks!).  Not too fancy when it comes to restaurants.

Movies you can watch over & over? I’m a fan of old movies with Clark Gable, Katherine Hepburn, Humphrey Bogart, Jimmy Stewart.  Musicals with Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire, Judy Garland, Bing Crosby.  If I’m channel surfin’ & come across “Dumb & Dumber” I have to watch it & end up laughing as hard as the first time I saw it.  Same with “40 Year Old Virgin”.  In “Field of Dreams”, the line “Dad, wanna have a catch” makes me cry everytime.  Love “Bull Durham”…”quite acting like such guys”.  And of course, GWTW, ‘nuf said.

3 songs you never get tired hearing? Somewhere Over The Rainbow, Friends In Low Places, any Beatles song (is that more than 3?).

Favorite TV shows? Love cable.  TLC, HGTV, CNN, ESPN, Animal Planet, Food Network, and who ever is showing a Cardinals’ game.

First concert ever attended? Elvis. Okay, I was very, very, very young. The best part was the ride to the concert. My friend’s mother, who was the huge Elvis fan, had a white cadillac. My friend & I sat in the back seat eating Velveeta cheese. Elvis would have been proud!

Finally, what super power do you wish you had? To be able to clean my kitchen by wiggling my nose like Samantha in the old TV series “Bewitched”.
