I used to love to crochet! I picked up some wool a few months ago and found it became a total mess, I seem to have forgotten which hole to pull through. I'm not giving up though!

Welcome, c-mama! I live in Sth Florida when I live in the States too.

What a fun thread....I'm not so sure Ishould reveal the mystery that is brusselsprout

OK, so I will...

A looooooooooong time ago before I had kids, when I had first started dating thier father, I was hanging out with two of my friends (one of which is now my sister in law). It was late at night and we had all had too many mocha's (we were so the uber-cool coffee house chicks ) and had stopped a friend's work for something. One of them looked under the table and was wondering what the heck was under there (for the record it was a space heater) and being all amped up I said the first thing that popped out of my mouth (words that follow me and haunt me) "It was a brusselsprout..."long pause".....just one though". Um....yeah. So, I was chatting with one of those friends on IM when I signed up here, and thus I became brusselsprout :LOL

I am usually known as moonbeam or star on the internet - and I love light spectrums and rainbows and sparkly bright things. Probably should've called myself Moth but starlite kind of twinkles and sounds alot prettier, don't you agree?

Eagle Voice is my DH's shaman name. I wanted to use something different, I always have used the same name for everything and it was time for a change.

I've used this name for quite a few years now, it started out as a nick name, luv (get it? luv's a bitch) then when dh found out about it, he adapted it as a cutsie-tootsie pet name, ie the full version now...

When I first discovered the internet, I signed up with (another site who's name I won't mention) to get a free email account. Plain old "Ruth" was taken, so I used "ruthla"- my first name plus the first two letters of my last name.

Since then, I've hopped around from one site to another, and I've kept the same name so that I can easily be recognized by any of my old online buddies, whereever I may end up posting or chatting.

People have often asked me (usually in a chat because I have a profile on message boards) if I'm from Los Angelas (LA) or Louisiana (LA). The answer is neither!!! I've also been called ruthia, rugh, ruthala, and rith. For the most part I'll answer to any of them.

My username is a simple statement. I stongly believe in CDing children, for many reasons. Our last child is successfully potty trained for 2 weeks, (finally) therefore, I have Fluffed Three or ifluffedthree. Simple statement that goes hand in hand with my cd views and that I make and sell dipes for three years now.

Mine is boring! It is just my name. I'm not creative at all when it comes to usernames or email addresses.

I have just always called each of my children sugarplum as a loving nickname, so I simply connected it to mama. My kids liked it!
