Hey all, I'm Lindsay, and I realized that I have a few posts on another board for foodies (which is where I found this board). My husband and I are big time food fans, so that's why I work for Whole Foods now. It's amazing to finally be able to taste my produce! This is all after years of thinking I only liked pasta and chicken, when really I only dislike my mom's cooking. So now after some cooking classes and tons of samples (and miles of running so I can keep eating!) we're both certified junkies. The boards have turned us on to some AWESOME folks who have just out of the goodness of their hearts said hi and gave us extras at meals. So to those who even remotely recognize me (all one or two of you) hello! And to those I haven't yet met - see you soon. My Ray's dinner this Friday will actually be my first group outing - DH let me out of the cage every now and then.
