Great thread! I'm in boring ol' IL, Belvidere to be exact which is just east of Rockford, or about 60 miles west of Chicago. I'm was born in Rockford, escaped long enough to go to college, and now many years later, fate has brought me back. It's not that bad actually, but not as exotic as some of your locations! I love how the internet can make the world such a small place that we can all be chatting like this!

Hey yalll!! I'm new to this forum!

Currently I'm in FL....Gainesville Gator country to be exact. Gotta love my gators. I'm moving to Fredricksburg, VA in a month, it's a growing city outside of Washington DC.. Grew up in Miami, FL, born in Santo Dominigo, Dominican Republic, and grandchild of two holocaust survivors. Lot of culture and good cooking in my family. I bake for my boyfriend mostly, we've been together for one year now, we met on my birthday, beat birthday present ever! I also bake and cook for my friends, we all go to UF and I'm the only one with a kitchen. Even though it's only a space of 6'x6' including counter space and appliances, and my stove is a pea green flashback from the 60's. Whatever works!!

I'm originally from Southern Ca but have lived in Kansas since I got married two weeks after graduating high school. We will celebrate our 36th anniversary this month. I have three grown kids (two boys and a girl) and two beautiful grandaughters. I miss the ocean and my family but not the masses of people and pace of Ca. I love living in the midwest.

I used to be an army brat, born in Hawaii, moved to Wisconsin when I was 2, moved around in WI and then over to Minnesota. Parents split when I was 10, moved back to Wisconsin with my mom when I was 10 1/2 and have been here ever since.
I've been married since 1999 after a 3 month courtship (just knew he was the one) and our marriage is getting better every year. We have one child, a boy who is 5 years old and smart as heck. Want more kids but things need to get better in the budget first. (And husband is currently going for his bachelor degree so things are a little busy right now and he would not have time to help me with a second child.)
