About Me

After what seems like a lifetime, I am opening my profile back up to see what is out there. A little about me...I am a single mother of three GREAT kids. Yes, this part comes first because my children mean the world to me. Two of the three are grown adults. The youngest lives with his Father. I am not one of those crazy Moms that are always nosing in their children's business but I am actively involved since parenting doesn't end when they turn 18. I am at that stage in my life that I am not really seeking a relationship that involves young children. I apologize if this seems kind of harsh but I think its best to be honest right from the start. I am educated. I have a degree in Early Childhood Education and one in Culinary Arts. I retired from teaching over 10 years ago to pursue my dream of becoming a chef. Things I am really really into: Food, wine, music of all types, comedies and horror films, antiques (really into antique dishes, flatware and serving pieces), Mob films, reading, anything cultural/ artistic, candles, foreign films, long walks, water and boating, mountains, a good****ail, bed and breakfasts, and photography. Things I am NOT into: Motorcycles. Do not get me wrong, I can appreciate a beautiful machine and like any other woman I do find a bike sexy. I am not into the weekend riders that are into biker chicks riding on the back of the bike in chaps and a tank top. There is nothing wrong with the occasional rider that enjoys a ride every now and then but also knows that a car is a good idea. I am NOT into the bar scene. Yes...I know, that sounds odd...a chef that is not into the bar scene. I do not enjoy sitting on a stool on the precious time off I have while consuming a beverage that is less then stellar in a setting that isn't cozy. A nice bar after a movie or dinner is fun. But the local corner hangout is not where you will find me.Interesting things about me that might be good to know ahead of time: I do not eat hot dogs (although I do like sausage). I have been to numerous NASCAR events so I am familiar with how it works. I enjoy fishing and being on the water. I talk a lot. Its part of my nature. My job requires me to talk (a LOT) so I have been conditioned to do so. I am a real blonde. I have real blonde moments.My favorite color is red. I love chocolate. Not into coffee unless it has chocolate in it.I blog as a hobby. I am a published cookbook author.I do not own a pair of sneakers (my daughter took the last pair of sketchers I had because I owned them for a year and wore them twice).I like to shoot pool but I am bad at it. I speak sarcasm as a second language. On the outside I can appear to be a little gruff and abrasive. Once I get to know you a little better, I soften up completely. On the inside I am a softie at heart and have been called a "Mother Hen" because I tend to look out for others often.Long term I am really looking for that one guy that really really gets ME. At 42, I am probably not going to change much (just as I expect you would not either). Currently, my job keeps me busy most weekends but I would like to find the guy who is willing to change that with me. For to long my career has really been my first priority but I would like to find someone to share my life with me. The perfect someone would love to see the world, be able to enjoy a great glass of wine with me on the back porch, and be able to talk about anything. If you think you are that guy, do not hesitate to ***

    Hi, I have a good job, a great sense of humor, a car, bills, a busy schedule. I live alone, and I'm still looking for someone special, never been married, want very much to be in a relationship. I don't think couples should get boring once they get together, I think all of the fun begins when you find that special person!!!What I'm looking for specifically, I definately want someone who is educated and can hold up their end of conversation on a variety of topics. I have a really wild goofy sense of humor, I tend to be the loud one at parties,a nd I'm also very much into a physical relationship, chemistry is important to me. I wrote that I'm average, I'm about a size 14, so if you like curvy girls you'd probably like me. If you're looking for stick skinny.....I'm not your girl : )I'm a huge animal lover, I had a Golden Reteiver for 11 years, someday I want a dog again, but not while I"m in an apt. with cats! I grew up around cows and horses, love farmer-outdoor-cowboy types!!! I have dated for a long time, I know what I'm attracted to -- I like to be outdoors, I like guys who hike, camp, travel, love animals, exercise.... A quick sharp wit and optimistic outlook go a long way with me as well. Thanks for checkin me out!!! Sometime I can be a hermit when I'm NOT working, so I'd rather get outside and do some things over the weekends -- Take Care!!

    Thank you for checking out my profile! I am a down to earth, girl next door type of person. I love to make people laugh! Laughter is the best medication! I enjoy hanging out with my friends and kiddos which 2 are grown. I love camping, fishing, dancing , sitting by a nice camp fire! I am a very hard working person and I love my job very much. I am looking for a long term relationship but in order to get there there must be a connection and attraction. Granted it isn't going to happen right away... So yes it takes dating to get to know someone. The reason I say that is because I did check long term relationship.. The must important thing I really need to say is that if you are looking for a booty call or someone just to hang with... I'm not for you! If you would like to know more please ask! The official first date could be dinner and a nice conversation, drinks and dancing.. but would like to do a "meet & greet" before the the first official date..Pretty easy going so we can plan it together or surprise me :)

    Life has a way of moving on and sometimes we get caught in its wheel, while other times, we are the one pushing it onward. I've experienced both & am sure a balance between these two us where I am. I won't sit and watch life go by, but definitely relish special, quiet moments. At this point if you are still reading, I won't respond to messages that only have a few letters or ones that obviously have not read my profile. Put some thought into what you write and make sure we are at least on the same page (ie... no offense, but I won't date a smoker). So, I enjoy all kinds of activities and LOVE to laugh and joke around with others. I do have a serious side too and desire the same of both in a potential date. I also like kind hearted, but not pushover guys, who are motivated to be active, enjoy lots of different activities, and are easy to get along with. God is a very important part of my life and I would like to find someone who lives with Him as an important part of theirs too. I won't play dating games and honesty is crucial. Not a stage one clinger here, but would enjoy spending time getting to know the right guy. If we aren't a match, don't be offended if I politely say so and for goodness sake, being rude or disrespectful will NOT get you anywhere. NOT looking for intimate encounter here, so don't waste your or my time!Looking to travel in the future and see where life takes me, but home is right where I belong. Carpe diem and I wish you the best in your search! :0)Please have a picture on your profile if you want me to respond. It's only fair to see if there is a common interest visually! Be creative and don't take me on your "usual" date. If it feels like I am a number, you won't get mine. Not snobby, just honest!
