I’ve Decided to Share Some Things You May Not Know “About Me”
Do you care to share a little about yourself?
I’ve been on Medium for over six years, but I don’t think my readers know too much about me. Many of those who did know me are no longer on this site. Since there are many new Medium members who read my work, along with some longtime readers who know little about my life, I have decided to share a few things about me.
Some people who have read some of my work know that I am a married, liberal, old, gay guy who writes a lot about politics. But there is quite a bit more to me than this. I am going to share some of my likes and a few of my dislikes so you may understand who I am a little better.
First of all, I love food. I love to eat. I grew up eating the basic American food, which included meat, potatoes, and vegetables. I always thought this was a very bland diet, and I still do. Early on in my life, I discovered Tabasco sauce and spicy food.
My favorite cuisine is Thai, followed by Chinese, Cajun, Malaysian, and Mexican. My husband is Chinese-Malaysian, born in Penang, Malaysia, which is noted for its extraordinary cuisine. He loves to cook, and needless to say, he does most of the cooking. He is also a big fan of Gordon Ramsey, so he cooks a great deal of Western gourmet food.
