Lovin life's basics...cooking, loving, talking, laughing and learning. I'm a bit like an old lday with really perky boobs. Knitting with my cat beside me while listening to NPR is what I like to do when Ihave time to burn. Mostly look pretty innocent but,engage me in converation and you will learn differently.

My opinions are important to me but politics are certainly not. I ama bit more old-fashioned than most and more free thinking too. I do not adhere to rules of religion, civil law or any one single particular school of "right". I think that taking is wrong, situational ethics are important, and that conflict is to be avoided.

Absolute foodie here. Love trying new and intersting things...my favorite foods are capers, artichoke hearts, good cheese, water crackers, fruit, melons, extra spicy soy chai tea and wild game. I do not like beets, extra greasy stuff, prepackaged food, MSG(allergy), fake anything(color, flavors)fake bacon is a horrible thing, or animal skin, it freaks me out a little except for salmon and I love it.

If you make me smile though: wit, charm, je ne sais quoi, sexy dimples, your flagrant over use of big words, or the way you kiss me ...good luck and enjoy that power over me ....ohh if you want to impress me flowers are awesome(no red roses), so is a picnic with yummy delicious cheese-n-crackers(chedder and havarti dill do not count im talk ing stinky blues, sheep or goat), a nice chill bottle of pino gris and a bottle of red for later if things work out and we want to chil a little longer in the park

I'm not looking for someone with children...dating with children is like dating with herpes to me...no thanks....not looking for inst-a family just add me

I would love to see someone challenge themselves and me...paintball, canoeing, rock climbing, Scrabble, new foods, odd events...all things that sound great...I'm pretty easy to get along with as long as it doesn't involve a quiet movie theater, a loud smokey bar, your children(unless they are cute and fuzzy) or a chain resturant
