Inspired by Sandra. I am going to tempt to write 100 things about me without getting too personal.
1. I was born in Poughkeepsie NY - don't laugh.
2. I never imagined I would live in Paris or Italy.
3.Painting paintings is my profession, that means I pay taxes as an artist and everything I own I bought with my art.
4. I'm not a sweet eater but I just had a magnum ice cream bar.
5. I am not a competitive person.
6. Competitive women bore me to tears.
7. I don't find Paris to be that thrilling, it just seems like a big city.
8. Tuscany and Florence are my home.
9. Swimming in the Italian Mediterranean is a total joy.
10. I used to be a bartender, I loved it.
11. Campari bitter is one of my favorite drinks.
12. A good margherita cocktail with salt is also one of my favs.
13. This is harder than I thought so I will stop at 13 and I'm going to take a nap.

Great start, Angie! I actually felt tears well up at your statemnet that Tuscany and Florence are your home. I feel that I'm in exile and I'm not sure where home is anymore.....but Italy very much feels like it may be.

Thanks Sandra, I'm going to keep filling in until iget to 100.
Italy, sigh, I miss it so much. I can't even think about it or I come to cry. The next time I will be there is in June, The longest I have been away in 21 years - I can't wait.

Oh my stars! I have a good friend living in Poughkeepsie. And it's funny, but whenever I see the word in print, I then read it again several times that week.
