There are so many new Farmgirls I thought this would be fun to do again. I searched the archives and have attached it below because I wasn't sure how to reactivate the original post. I was shocked that it had been 2 years!!!
Hey Farmgirls, are you all as curious as me about each other? I can gather snippets of info. about each of you from different posts, but I'm always wishing I knew more. The following is alittle fill-in-the-blank that I used in my scrapbooking classes. A great ice breaker and Moms would use it with their children at different ages...can be quite funny and makes a cute page. Anyway, I thought if we used it here it'd be a fun way to learn more about each other and the things we have in common. Here it is. I hope some of you want to play!
I AM CRAZY ABOUT...
I ALWAYS...
I NEVER TIRE OF...
I CAN CONSUME...
I WEAR...
I LIKE...
I LOVE TO...
THE BEST THING ABOUT ME IS...
There you go. Looking forward to getting to know you better.
farmgirl hugs,
kim

Corinne - I have to confess, I never did my list on the original one. I never can just list one thing! And after reading yours I realized I left out fabric,wind and trees!! See what I mean? I guess we can illustrate the two different ways to fill it out. OH MY! you might be sorry.
I’M CRAZY ABOUT…sunsets at the beach, being a mother, flower & vegetable gardens, planting seeds, fresh, homegrown tomatoes, my mother’s cooking, long walks, feeding the birds, watching the birds feed each other, animals, especially baby ones, baskets, old quilts, tea in bed with my wise old friend, people who have lots of general knowledge, making jelly, water anywhere: oceans, rivers, lakes, etc., all kinds of music, real mail, hearts, hands, books, cotton sheets in the summer & flannel sheets in the winter, handwork, nature and the outdoors, rocking chairs, front porches, massages.
I ALWAYS…brush my teeth, have polish on my toes, eat dessert, take bubble baths at night and showers in the morning, try to think positive, cry when I’m very happy or real sad, kiss or hug hello & good-bye, tell my family & friends I love them, stay in touch with friends, Pray, write thank you notes.
I NEVER TIRE OF…long walks in the woods or the beach, returning with a pocketful of treasures, autumns changing colors and springs new green, the smell of wood burning , starry nights in the country, my quiet time, traveling to someplace new, moon vine and morning glories on my fence, sunflowers and zinnias, kindness, good manners.
I CAN CONSUME…anything sweet, lots of Mexican food w/ beer, black coffee, fish, fruit & fresh veggies, home cooking, sushi, homemade bread slathered* with real butter(*southern word – only in the south do people slather anything).
I WEAR…linen and cotton, jeans and tee shirts, black suits, silver jewelry, heels, flats,flip-flops, but would rather be barefooted, baseball caps & straw hats, turtlenecks, an apron at work.
I LIKE…seeing fields of cotton, drives in the country, barns, bridges and old churches, night sounds, sheep, to procrastinate, senior citizens, waking up early, to be alone to regain my energy, presents for no reason, birthdays celebrated the whole month, outdoor plays and concerts, the smell of a pipe, wood wind instruments, drummers and trumpet players & the music they make, creative greeting cards, learning something new, raking leaves, the Sunday paper in bed with coffee, to dance, singing out aloud, asking questions.
I LOVE…. my children, my family, to laugh & the people who make me, old friends, new friends, intelligent conversations, touch, to cook, people who are genuine, sensitive men, babies, kissing, full moons, the smiles and laughter of children, phone calls from my kids, bedtime, starting something new, when I “get it”, knowing that everyone and everything in my life is connected to the whole and that it’s a good thing even if the experience isn’t.

Kim, you made may day.... thank you for putting in words what was in my sould. I like almost EVERYTHING you wrote about. Cannot tell you how my spirits are lifted now. And I needed it because I have in front of me a day at waiting at different places in Kuwait to hopefully have my local driver licence issued this week. So now I feel full of joy and energy and will think of you during the day. Thank YOU again.

This is a great thread; I am learning just why it is I like you all so much.....we all have lots in common!!
I AM CRAZY ABOUT...my family (sometimes driven crazy BY my family!)
I ALWAYS...read the Bible after breakfast.
I NEVER TIRE OF...hearing birdsong, watching the setting sun throw shadow patterns of my lace curtains onto the brick fireplace, checking the garden in spring for new shoots poking through the ground, seeing trees on fire with brilliant autumn colors, retelling favorite family stories around the dinner table, surveying the Christmas tree in the livingroom lit only by the tiny white lights on the tree and candleglow.
I CAN CONSUME...my weight in one of my girlfriend's guacamole recipes, or my mother's turkey stuffing, caesar salad and eggplant parmesan.
I WEAR...earrings and perfume every day, and feel undressed without them! Jeans, comfy sweaters, birkenstocks, long skirts. Can wear some items of clothing out, and I mean out!
I LIKE...to cook, to make bread and smell it baking, to have my family and friends over for a nice meal, to sit on the front porch and watch the rain fall, to daydream, visit new places, wake up to a snowy wonderland (REALLY rare!).
I LOVE TO...read, knit, make pottery, stumble across a great deal on something I would love to have, to learn a new skill, and find a good friend.
THE BEST THING ABOUT ME IS...my sense of humor, and my sense of wonder at the beauty of nature.

WOW! Thanks ya'll for playing! It is fun isn't it! It's so funny in my mind's eye I see you all as young. Then you talk about your grans and I can't believe it. Proves one thing - our spirits don't age.
Corinne - I hope everything went smoothly concerning your permit to drive. I'm sure that's an interesting experience in another country. Thinking about you too and sent you an email.
Aunt Jenny! I just rediscovered cottage cheese about 6 months ago. Before that I used it mostly in recipes, now I'm eating it everyday. I must need the calcium and protein. And kids b-day parties - well, those are some of my favorite memories of my 4 growing up.
Frannie - I always love the way you talk so sweet about "hunky Hank".
Carol Sue - peanut butter and pickles? I love 'em both, gonna have to try 'em together now! Love the vision of you singing and dancing...LOUD!
Meggie - and I just KNOW that you have a beautiful voice! Maybe MJF needs a choir and a band...WAIT! How 'bout a MJF musical!!!???
Blanche, Amanda, Alee, Michele - Now it's perfectly clear what the next new item MJF must add to her line of products...CHOCOLATE!!!
Have a great week everyone - you just made mine!

This is a great thread!
Kinda like counting your blessings
Can't get me nailed down-but I am enjoying reading about all of you!
Maybe it's just too early in the morning!
