About me

I can't imagine life without:
Crisco (and of course my wonderful Home Ec students at Endeavor Unified Middle & High School!)
I am completely indifferent to:
STORE BOUGHT COOKIES!
I sometimes pretend to:
be Ann-Margret in Bye Bye Birdie and write letters to Elvis.
The best breakfast is:
Scrambled eggs (don’t forget the cheese!), thick, home-cut bacon, 3 golden-delicious, fluffy waffles, a cup of OJ, a cup of Joe, and Good Morning America!
My favorite Tuesday outfit:
My chartreuse, full-skirt shirtdress (starched, of course), with my favorite polka-dot salmon colored apron with lace trim.
Song stuck in my head:
Quando, Quando, Quando
Who are you Haiku:
the smell of cookies
wafting from my oven makes
me swoon with pure joy
