I'm from Connecticut in the USA. I grew up pretty much on and around the Yale University campus and the surrounding neighborhoods.

I have a BS in journalism from SCSU. I finished in four years with a 3.9 GPA in my major. I agree with the state university on one thing and one thing only, that the degree is "BS."
I am one of three girls. We have our own families now, but remain as close as ever. I'm married.
~That's me.
I'm an artist. My talents include drawing, painting, sewing, hand quilting, knitting, and crocheting. I eat a lot and I really love books, paper, writing tools, textiles, music, lasagna, and cake.
People inspire me. I don't agree with everything anyone is saying, but I always learn something from everyone. I like learning what other people are doing. I have good social manners. I interact when appropriate. I direct comments at the authors, unless I have something to share, a relevant question or something positive to say to a community member. I don't chastise people in the comments. I respect everyone, especially their First Amendment rights.
I love making people smile and I'm protective of children.
I'm excited to be a part of the Steemit community. Peace and blessings to all. If you're still here, thank you for reading.
That's me,
Soup, Queen Guardian
