1. I Am From…By: Anne E. IrizarryI Am FromI am from Gary and Joan, Howard and Alida, and Herbert and Lucille.I am from the “Land of Ten Thousands Lakes” Minnesota, to the “Glacier plains” of Missouri.I am from meat and potato eaters, now…fast food cooking, drink lots of water and ice tea.I am from a very “family oriented,” Catholic up-bringing, sense of humor, caring family who takes pride in our family background and traditions. I am from a Card Playing, (Pitch, Texas Hold Em’, even crazy eight) Dice games, Board games, girl vs. boy tournaments… especially during the holidays. Living room filled with laughter and stories, Neil Diamond and Ray Coniff music, nieces and nephews running around, picture taking moments, drinks and eats all night long. Of course church in the morning. “Two pots!” “Clip it or Grip it!” “Keep your nose clean!” “You’re my boy Blue!”, “Holy Hell!”“Skip,” “ JONE” “Chicken”, “Lou Hoo,” “Jimbo,” “Kitty Kat”, “Lou,” “Twirp,” Herb,” “AMB,” “JAB,” “Coppertone”, “GAP,” “Rotten,” and “Little E!”I am from farmers, hog buyers, and teachers.I am from love
