I love your list! I never knew you wanted to do some of those things and now I do so we will have to accomplish some goals together :)

Liz, I'm so glad that you posted your list! That makes me very happy :) They are such worthwhile goals, showing real drive and care. I love that you want to learn how to make meatballs that taste like your grandmother's; that's definitely my favorite. Also, I'm in the same boat with finding a worthwhile job/going to graduate school for soemthing that I love - it's comforting to know I'm not the only one!
Thanks so much for the compliment regarding the origin of the website and the first post! I love to write, so it make ME want to cry when people tell me that certain words and ideas resignated with them.
Please feel free to pass along the invitation to post the 33 before 33to anyone you think may want to!
