What's the mix here?

[Callisto in NC]

I have been on many a forum and it's easy to see what people do and who they are. So I was just wondering what's the demographic here.

Stay at home moms?
Working guys?
Working women?
Stay at home dads?
Retired?
Single parent and working?
Single and working?

That's all I can come up with. Maybe there's more. So, if I may ask, what are you?

I'm a college student who is eternally frustrated by the kitchenlessness of her dorm room. LOL.

I'm studying psychology and though I love cooking, I don't think I could ever make it my job. It would somehow become less enjoyable due to the stress of having to do it rather than simply wanting to. That said, I might take a class or two at the Culinary Institute for fun.

Well, Calli, we're long-time empty nesters. Had 5 children who are now "big people," some with their own families.

I'm still working...couple jobs. Interior design and writing. Been at it for many, many years. Also worked as a newspaper copy editor for many years, too. Don't think I want to retire because I really enjoy what I do.

I knew I liked this group for a reason. My last group that I had to "move on from" was 90% stay at home moms and home schoolers of grammar school age children with no men. Just not a group I could relate to. This is a much more diverse group. I like it!!
