Which Portland neighborhood do you call home?

SE Portland, Reed

About Me:

I'm a cook. It's a deep rooted passion. I'm open minded, and can befriend just about anyone. I'm mellow, sarcastic, warm, a great listener- all that friend stuff.

I live alone with my Lil' One (A 6 month old little mutt puppy). I work at an awesome restaurant in Laurelhurst. I'm growing tomatoes- life is good.

I'm looking for a person or a small group of people who I can cook with/for, go out and grab a drink, (I heart beer) explore the city with, hike, thrift, talk with, have coffee with, etc. I'll eat just about anything, but I could live on good pizza and warm chocolate chip cookies for the rest of my life, no problem. I'm also a crocheting badass. You laugh now, wait until the winter and you get cold... I'm a fan of body art, (I'm lightly tattooed) and expressing oneself through style. Mine says, "I'm comfortable". Would prefer someone who wasn't all cracked out, and preferably someone with all their teeth- drugs aren't my thing. If you are a girl pal of mine and I catch you acting stupid to get attention from guys, I'm gonna face push you. Quit it, it's not cute. If you're a guy and I catch you acting stupid to get attention from me... I might face push you too.

In all seriousness, come and say hi and lets go grab coffee or a pint and enjoy this summer.

What do you love about Portland?

This city has character, and I feel in place here. I love the craft brews, the importance restaurants put on using local products, the friendly people, it's infrastructure, and the kick back attitude that everyone has. Oh, and coffee.. mmm...I love you Stumptown, you make every morning delicious.

My music:

Reggae, indie, folk,electronic, underground hip hop, jazz, some pop, rock and roll, punk, old school rap.

What's your favorite Portland neighborhood and why?
