FAVORITE FOOD DISHES:
Seafood is my passion especially Lobster, Scallops & Flounder though I savor grilled Marinated Pork chops on a warm summer evening and can't beat a hotdog with the works at the ballpark(who's counting calories!) and all the above enjoyed with my favorite soft drink...a diet coke.

The Dutch Orange Tiger Lily.

MOST MEMORABLE VACATIONS:
Kenya Africa in 2001, My husband and I will never forget the grace of the African people and the beautiful countryside that has so much to offer the world that so very few ever get to see.
My trip and tour to London, England with my daughter at my side in June 2006, that was truly full of wonder for the both of us and even a rare glimpse of Queen Elizabeth at the gates of the Buckingham Palace, truly splendid.
**********
FAVORITE SUMMER PAST TIME:
Sitting out in my back yard on what I call my thinking bench taking in the fresh air, watching the birds come and go, the swaying of the weeping willows while listening to the "singing flowers"(as quoted by Laura Ingalls Wilder in reference to the abundance of crickets and noise bugs nestled in the prairie flowers found here in Minnesota singing all summer long).
**********
Favorite Baseball Team:
The Boston Red Sox(Sorry twins!)
***********
Favorite Football Teams:
The New England Patriots What can I say...I love Minnesota but I'm from the Northeast! and the great Green Bay Packers(after a visit to Lambeau Field in Jan. 2007 one can't help but leave a "Packer fan").

Horse Whisperer, Titanic, Bruce Almighty, Cinderella man.
MOST FAVORITE ACTOR/ACTRESS:
Robert Redford(A most brillant actor who's charm and wit will forever be ageless)the late Sandra Dee(growing up not far from the Atlantic Shoreline I always dreamt of being just like Gidget, Ohh Moon-doggie!) and can't forget the hilarious Jim Carey!

FEMALE COUNTRY ARTIST INFLUENCES:
Crystal Gayle(according to my parents when I seen Crystal perform at a county fair at age six while visiting TN. my mom's home state, I looked up at Crystal in awe and said I wanted to be just like her one day), Patsy Cline(my mom had the distinct priviledge to see Patsy perform as a young woman and growing up I heard Patsy's songs especially the song "Crazy" played by my mom more than any other)Linda Ronstadt("Your no good" and "Poor Poor Pitiful Me" are two of my favorite songs by Linda), Tanya Tucker(the original wild child of Country music,I feel Tanya opened doors for female artists of today to be themselves and the fans will love ya just the way you are!),Martina McBride(true country elegance), Faith Hill(a great singer with the envy of every woman with Tim by her side!)JoDee Messina("Because you loved me" does it for me) & Shania Twain(I can relate to Shania in many ways and that is why she's such a powerful role model for all who follow her).
**********
FAVORITE MALE COUNTRY ARTISTS:
Tim McGraw(of course!), Toby Keith(I like his style and his boldness that embraces rather than insults), Kendall Obermier(had the pleasure to meet this talented country artist in 2005) and Willie Nelson(a larger than life man that's true to his character on and off stage and still going strong!(a little side note about Willie....He and my Uncle Roy also from TN. grew up together and still hang out from time to time)
**********
OTHER FAVORITE RECORDING ARTISTS:
Elton John(my idol since I was 13, my favorite song by Elton would have to be "Goodbye yellow brick road"),Paul McCartney(it's that accent! no seriously my 8th grade reception song was "The long and winding road" and I've loved it ever since!),Carly Simon(who couldn't relate to "Your so vain" we've all known someone that just can't pass by a mirror without that long glance!)Chely Wright(I so love her song "Wouldn't it be cool" for personal reasons!!!!!) and Celine Dion(Celine is one classy lady and perfomer who increased the bar of excellence of what an audience expects when it's showtime).
