I love to take pix but the girls on here are way better than me. I do a little scrapbooking. i help grow a veggie garden at our home this is the first year i have been really active with it my parents usually do most of the work and i just pitch in this year that is reversed. I recently lost my job and am only kinda looking for something new workwise and was looking into inexpensive ideas for hobbies to do. what does everyone else do for fun?
I have been trying to think of a thread to start up on this board and Clara moving Sam's flash post helped me think of this idea of something we can get to know each other more by-our hobbies and intrests.

Well my hobby is definitly taking pictures and photography! But it's an expensive hobby, lol! I joined a forum called clickin moms to better myself at it, and it truely has helped! In just 3 months, I've learned how to quit using my flash, and shoot in Manual.
Other hobbies..I LOVE planting flowers, although they usually die on me. I love having a beautiful yard, but with 3 kids, it's hard to keep up with it. My newest hobby is running! Oh how I love to run! I just wish I could do it everyday without risk of injury!
I do like to sew a little too. But that is alot of work for me, lol!

Although I have my degree in Photojournalism, one of my passions is multi media art. I also love hiking, sewing, reading, collaging, thrift shopping and traveling.

I love to bake, especially cheesecakes!! I love to entertain my friends and family! The more the merrier!
I also enjoy photography! I am still learning things about my camera and how to take the perfect shot! But it makes me happy when I get good results!
I am an avid reader! I enjoy christian authours, Francine Rivers and Karen Kingsbury. And also Jodi Piocult and a few others!
I am a bit of a TV junkie at times too! I love most of the reality TV shows and of course several of the dramas!

I am a community theater addict. I am very involved in the theater scene locally, act, sing and am a choreographers nightmare! Two out of three isn't bad. Music is my life. I can't imagine being without it and my tastes are very eclectic. I also love to crochet and read. I do some embroidery and I do several crafts occasionally.

This is such a fun thread! ;D I love writing, of course. Other hobbies are: Photography and flower gardening, and I have a passion for Italian cooking. I can see that we might, in time, set up threads for each of our hobbies and share ideas, helps, other links to check for help, etc. We sure do have a lot of talented people here! Fun stuff! Love, Clara PS I love reading, too, and Jodi Picoult is one of my favorite authors!

I love to read. I also enjoy scrapbooking, although I am not that good at it (not very artistic at all). I use to love to bake and am starting to enjoy that again. I also have flower gardens, one in memory of Isaiah and one in honor of Tabatha as well as a small rose garden. I also enjoy veggie gardening, although I enjoy eating the produce more than weeding! And, I love taking walks. There is something relaxing about walking, even if I walk with Tabatha and she begs me to find tractors, loaders, cement mixers, and garbage trucks and then has a tantrum when I tell her there are no tractors in the city.

What a fun thread! I love being outdoors. I go to the beach whenever I can to walk and bring a book. I also enjoy hiking and bike riding. I've done some car camping, but I would like to try backpacking in the future. I've loved reading all of my life. I was the kid reading under the covers with a flashlight way past my bedtime. During the school year, I read lighter books like the Number One Ladies Detective Agency, the Charlaine Harris Vampire Novels, or other fun books. In the summer, I try to read the classics. I love British authors like Jane Austen, Dickens, and Thomas Hardy. I also love Steinbeck, but my favorite book is To Kill a Mockingbird. I've always joked about my horrible gardening skills, but since we're soon moving into a house with a yard, I'm hoping to try some gardening.

Candace, I was also the kid who stayed up too late with a nightlight reading as well. I can't tell you how many times I got caught and told, "It hurts your eyes!"
I love to read and write. I have recently taken up gardening, although I'm finding I have a lot to learn. Music is a major part of my life. I am very active in our local music scene. I'm the girlfriend who works the door, hears every single take of every single recording, and knows each and every band member and venue-owner. It is tiring sometimes, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I love all things kids, animal, and clothes! I LOVE water. I love to swim. I crave water, it calms my fiery leo soul.

;D ;D ;D oh wow!! awesome thread!! being away for a few days, i had no idea Clara created this board, until my post got moved. I love it tho!! We need it cause we talk a lot about our leisure time things that for ones don't involve our little ones...lol..mommy time Well..i love to ride my horse above all. My favorite hobby is just taking Gracie out in the woods ,riding slow, enjoying nature to the fullest. It as good as meditation. Helps me re energize ,and gives me much needed mental and physical break from survival mode I'm in most of the time... I love to knit, do cross stitch (no time for it now) ...i love to do scrapbooking , love drawing,painting, doing all kinds of crafts ....Can't wait for Adriana to get bigger, so we can do it all together ...I love to read.....I started reading "big ppl books..lol" when i was 7 ,and I've read thousands of them in past 24 years. I read in two languages, but now I'm reading only English ones. I love video games. Been playing Lord of the rings online since 2007, and met some good friends through it. There's prob more, but this is all i can think of now........ Oh..and I'm getting into photography now. Been practicing a lot, but I'm realizing that I'm gonna need to take classes in order to get where I'd like to be. love,Sam
