Jayme and Julia

I really wish I could cook.  I'm sitting here watching the movie "Julie and Julia" and I'm just amazed.  I can't even cook chicken or rice without screwing up.  Honestly, growing up, my mom didn't do much cooking (she says it was because we were all so picky, I say it's because cooking sucks).  It's actually not the cooking I so much mind as the cleaning up.  Well, that's not entirely true either.  When I cook, I feel completely incompetent.  I feel out of control.  I don't know what ingredients go with what or what I should put on the meat.  Whenever I cook, my husband asks, "Not to make you mad, but what exactly did you put on this?"  My feelings are never hurt because I just know cooking is not my strong suit.

HOWEVER...I have a whole lot of other great traits that everyone should stop and appreciate.  I have an insane amount of compassion for the underdog.  I have a great complexion (thanks mom and dad for the good genes).  I am ambitious (I mean, really, it's going to take me 16+ years to get my college degree!).  I am stubborn (this can either work in your favor or against you....depends on what side of the coin you are on).  When I set my mind to something, I go until it's accomplished (marathon...need I say more?).  I am very loyal.  I am totally organized....at work.  I'm pretty cute, just ask my husband.  Speaking of him, I did a pretty good job picking a hot hubby (just look at him people!).  I'm a great step-mom (ask Riley, he'll tell ya).  I'm a thrift shopper extraordinaire (thanks Mom and Vicki!).

 

I could go on and on about my outstanding attributes, but here's a blank ____________________, insert your own about me =)
