I always rate! If you have not received a rating from me, please contact me. I am a sahm with a 6 yo dd whom I homeschool. My life revolves around my daughter, food, and brief excursions into freelance data analysis. I love almost all types of teas except thyme. I like to go to foreign groceries, buy things without American labels and figure out how to cook them. I am not a foodie, but people who come to eat at my house are not allowed to ask what they are eating until after dinner because I like to experiment with anything I can get my hands on. My friends consider me a gourmet cook, but they are used to the typical American diet. I stay away from sugar and processed foods on general taste principles. I am addicted to research, especially medical research.

Brundibar, anything by Leonard Mlodinow

Hair, Star Trek, , Sound of Music, Rocky Horror

We don't have a tv. And please don't offer us one, we have no space for it.

cooking, soap and lotion making. Do legos count as a craft? My daughter and I are both learning to draw from the "Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" book and I teach art to her homeschool group.

I like to combine jewel and earth tones together. Shakespeare and classic poetry -possibly nothing past Ginsburg - but I would be open to listening - I like poetry slams and open mikes but these days they start past my bedtime.
Good coffee - we use a coffee press at home and grind our own. New artists that I haven't heard before - but not discordant noise. Anything that is beautiful. Good friends, long term friends, good long term friends. New places - spontaneous travel (which is almost impossible as a foster parent). My husband

I don't like Kawaii - yes I send it out, but only because you've put it in your profile that you like it, and I like to send things that make people happy.

Sugar, partially hydrogenated oils, high fructose corn syrup - Unless it's a curlywurly and then all bets are off. Velveeta is another secret weakness but I would never admit it.

Plastic cookware or dishware. Unless it's made out of Velveeta.

Anything except rap. I only like reggae and country for the first 10 minutes. I love folk and punk, especially 60's folk and 80's punk. Minor keys, especially D minor. Psychedelic trance vibrations - preferably without drum machines or other synthesized instruments - although I can listen to good drumming for hours.
Leonard Cohen - although I get depressed if I listen to more than small doses. Bubblegum 70's music. Americana, and other classical music. Medieval, Baroque, but not mexican instrumental.
