I is for _____________
INTROVERT – not much of one for social situations or to get out & about – I’m an introvert through and through.
INTERESTING – I’d certainly say that I’m an interesting person. I’ve had a lot of life experience, traveling far and wide, seen many things and read a great number of books.
INDEPENDENT – probably because I’m an introvert I’ve always been a bit independent, doing things by myself and for myself.
INDECISIVE – it’s not so much that I can’t make a decision, but rather I’m fairly laid back about things and really don’t mind what ends up happening.
IN LOVE – Mr Chiots – need I say more?
IMPERFECT – As much as I’d love to be perfect I have to admit I’m not.
INDUSTRIOUS – You’ll always find me doing something, making something, starting a business.
INSTINCTIVE – I think part of being an introvert and being introspective give me good instincts.

Filed under About Me, Miscellaneous | Comments (11)H is for _______________
HOMEBODY – I’ve always been one to stay at home.
HEALTHY – My health is always something I’ve been very conscious of – definitely a priority in my life. Although my ideas on what constitutes “healthy” have changed through the years.
HONEST – I was raised in a conservative Christian home and was taught the value of honesty. If I’m not charged for something at the store, I return to pay for it. I don’t take what’s not mine. I’m not expedient and don’t expect things for free or to come without working hard for them. I value honesty in others very much, sadly, it seems to be a quality lacking in our society today.
HARDY – I’m able to take a lot of things and put up with a lot. I can hike for miles and work for hours. That being said, I don’t do well without regular meals!
HELLO KITTY – Ever since I was a little girl I’ve loved Hello Kitty. I distinctly remember having a pair of treasured Hello Kitty sandals that I loved as a girl.
HIKER – I truly enjoy hiking and will choose it as a vacation activity any time I can. Probably this has something to do with my necessity to be outside and breathe fresh air.
HARD WORKER – you’ll find me always working, rarely sitting down. I work hard to accomplish my goals, this is how I can get so much done.
HOLISTIC – the older I get the more I would describe myself in this way. I try to focus on the whole picture, especially when it comes to food & health. I also appreciate homeopathic medicine since it takes into the consideration the whole person.

Filed under About Me, Miscellaneous | Comments (10)G is for ______________
GARDENING – I didn’t use to be much of a gardener, but have grown to love it over the past 9 years. It’s such a great hobby because it’s: relaxing, active, fun, creative, and so many other wonderful things.
GRANOLA – not meaning that I like granola, but meaning that I’m a granola. For some funny descriptions of “granolas” see the Urban Dictionary. Although I don’t fit all the parameters of a granola, I’m pretty crunchy!
GENEROUS – I’ve always been a generous person, I try to give generously of my time with friends & family when possible and give generously of my money to charities and those in need.
GOOD – this is how my teachers always described me on my report cards and a “pleasure to have in class”. I’ve always been naturally good.
GOOFY – Yep, I can be a bit goofy sometimes.

Filed under About Me, Miscellaneous | Comments (9)F is for _______________
FRUGAL – I love to save money, mostly by not spending it. There’s a big difference between being frugal and being cheap – I’m not cheap. I will spend money on quality items that last, but I’m frugal because often I will find a way to make do without instead of buying something.
FEET – I’m foot phobic, I don’t like anyone’s feet but my own. Don’t know how I became this way but please keep you feet away from me, especially if they are without shoes!
FUNNY – Remember those outtakes? As an introvert many people don’t see this side of me because I can be very reserved, especially around others. Mr Chiots and a few others get to see the funny side of me.
FRECKLES – I’m covered with them, always have been. I hated them as a kid, now I love them. They’re definitely part of who I am. Now that it’s summer and I’m outside gardening all the time they’re super dark and they multiply like crazy. I always say that if my freckles would join forces I’d have a really nice tan!
FANATIC – I can be a bit fanatical about certain things, gardening, good food, good books, cookbooks, etc.
FREE SPIRIT – I’m a little out there, different, unique. I like doing things my own way.
FEARLESS – about some things. I’ll try just about any food, jump into new hobbies & try new things. I’m not afraid of not having something work out or failing. That being said – you’re not going to find me skydiving or doing any of that kind of crazy stuff!
FLAVOR – I love flavor, the more there is the better. Give me red pepper flakes on just about everything I eat, tons of herbs and spices, lots of black pepper, lots of butter and salt. The nice thing is that herbs and spices ramp up the nutritional value of what you’re eating. Bring on the flavor!

Filed under About Me, Miscellaneous | Comments (13)E is for _______________
ENDLESSLY CURIOUS – This is why my stack of books from the library is always so tall. Curiosity drives me to try to learn to make cheese, butter, grow mushrooms, and so many other things.
ECLECTIC – probably one of the best words to describe me. I have a wide scope of things that I love from playing computer games with Mr Chiots to reading Little House on the Prairie books, from knitting to woodworking, there are so many thing that I love doing.
END OF THE WORLD – Mr Chiots and I are HUGE fans of end of the post-Apocalyptic movies. There’s something so funny about them and usually the cheesier it is the more we love it!
ENTREPRENEUR – I started my first business when I was 6 or 7 years old making popsicles to sell to all the neighbor kids. I ended up with quite a booming business which expanded into chocolates as well. I made enough money to buy Barbies and other toys. Mr Chiots and I are self employed, we started 2nd Mile Productions many years ago. We are also always coming up with new businesses that we should start, if only we had more time.
ENERGETIC – I have lots of energy, which I ascribe to my healthy diet and all the butter & bacon I consume, this allows me to accomplish a lot in my day. It’s very rare to find me sitting still and doing nothing.
EFFICIENT – I’m always looking for ways to streamline the thing I do to maximize my time. If I weren’t efficient I wouldn’t be able to accomplish as much as I do.
EDUCATED – You’ll always find me reading something educational and researching some topic. As a result my brain is filled with a lot information – most it useless.
