1. Every once in awhile, I really like a peanut butter & dill pickle sandwich! (try it!)

3. I love the fact that I am named after my daddy-Dennis Michael Dunnigan.
4. I have been a doula at 18 births (NOT including the 6 that I 've given birth to!)!!
5. I love, love, love the smell of fresh basil.
6. I had my first child at 17. She is awesome and amazing. It turned out ok for us.
7. I dream of playing the fiddle, well. I took lessons for awhile-work got in the way....
8. I met Lloyd 22 years ago, married 17 years in May & he still gives me butterflies <3
9. Apparently, I snore. LOUD. Really bums me out. Asthma & allergies. Sooo not cool.
10. I really miss having girlfriends. I have a hard time making friends, wish I had more.
maybe if I didn't snore...or if I could play the fiddle...?
11. My house was burned down 3 times growing up (crazy arsonist stepdad). Yes, really.
12. I have lived in Alaska, Hawaii, Oregon & Washington.
13. There are 2 bolts in my left knee and a new acl made from my own hamstring!
I tore it skiing at Heavenly Valley on my Honeymoon & haven't skied since :(

15. Raspberries, blueberries, papaya, pesto, lamb, scallops, salmon, halibut, mushrooms, coconut & lemon/ginger are my top 10 favorite foods.
16. My maternal great-great grandmother was on the first all woman city council in the US

17. I love to garden, it reminds me of when I was little and gardened w/ my grandma.
She was very patient and has beautiful hands. Very sweet memories.

21. I am suprised by the way not having a job has effected me. I am in a good place now, but it has been an emotional rollercoaster.
22. I am afraid of flying & drowning & fire & the specter of dementia.
23. When I was young I rode horses 6-8 hours a day all summer long. Stupid boys got me distracted! I miss horseback riding.
