**To all of the potential winkers and messagers out there, please, pretty please have a picture. Don't you want me to see how handsome you are as soon as possible? Of course you do! Thanks **
Now, to the good stuff.
Me in a text box, hmm. I'll do my best. I'm a teacher by profession but a decorator by instinct and passion. I'm a part time blogger and a pretty good cook and baker, and yes, my pancakes are always homemade buttermilk, lemon ricotta when I'm feeling fancy. I'm a bit sarcastic and straight forward, but always considerate. I often dance in my living room/bedroom/kitchen (Gloria Estefan said the rhythm was gonna get me). I always enjoy my family and friends and have been known to act like a goof around all of them.
Things I love: eating tasty and healthy food, summer in NYC, traveling (I miss you Italy), stripes and animal prints, color, being inspired, forcing myself to go to the gym and feeling so good afterwards, and youtube tutorials (I'm a DIY type of girl).
I realize that my pics make me look like a fancy pants but I just usually take pictures when I dress up and go out or get my hair "did". You have to document those moments, right? So there it is in a fat nutshell.
I'm looking for a man with an open mind and an open heart. One with an appreciation for art, academia, the sublime and the ridiculous. Someone who reads, is up to date on current affairs, compassionate, and passionate. A man who feels his health is a top priority and works at it via food and exercise. A gentleman who is not judgmental, likes music and dancing and is not a fan of vapid reality TV shows (the ones with wives, sisters, etc.). I like to learn and if he can expose me to something new, that's bonus. Most importantly, he would be a man who is affectionate, giving, supportive and can make me laugh. Is this you?
