What are your other talents?

My father did the same with the house I grew up in. We lived across the street while he and his friends built the house. My brother helped a lot, too. I was just a toddler, but I do have vague memories of "helping." I'm sure I was also told to go away a lot :)[/QUOTE]

When my youngest daughter was about 3, while working on the roof, of our home at the time. I turned to see my baby standing next to me. Rhea had claimed the ladder, to help dad.
Your quote brought back a memory, that we both crack up at today. She call a few times every week. Precious. Ed
thank you Leonore
 
Well, I don't know how talented I am at it all, but my works in progress include....

Sewing

Cooking (okay, I'm pretty talented here, but don't really love to do it. I'm just a food snob who can't afford to pay for good food- so I'm stuck making it.)

Teaching (I homeschool my kiddos)

Tarot reading


Learning to play the cello is on my bucket list, but doesn't count yet!

Yup, that would have been me :) (And I'm the youngest of 5) I always wanted to hang around when they were working. When I got older, my father let me do little things on cars or equipment he was working on, like tightening up bolts or handing him tools. Loved getting my hands dirty in an engine just like his were.

Planes I work on don't crash. (The model plane I've been working on lately has a bad habit of crashing into mountains in Afghanistan.)

I make a bad-ass lockpick.

I make the best quesadilla you've ever had.

I don't use recipes for quesadillas (seriously). I pretty much make it up as I go, and it always comes out awesome.

Experiment with different ... everything. I can't even remember how many cheeses or meats I've used. Always use fresh ingredients.

Sauteed mushrooms and onions (and probably jalapenos too) would be where I would start. The cheese you use is a pretty big factor too... Lately, I've really been liking Dubliner. (Not a typical quesadilla cheese, but I love the flavor.)

edit
Maybe add some bell pepper too. Not sauteed though - for the texture.

Never thought of it as a talent... built all my Harley's on the kitchen table, had a 1980 80ci shovel head on the table when I met my wife.
 
I'm a decent shade-tree mechanic, I can turn larger bits of metal into smaller bits of metal with machine tools, and I'm not bad at home renovations.

I do charcoal drawing, oil painting, and computer art. I fly rc helicopter and drive rc car. I attend several writing groups to write some short stories. I'm expert in Microsft Windows 8.
 
Talents: does being able to field an AR15 blind folded count?

Anyhow, we deal in oil & gas as well as other investment opportunities. I've got a host of misc other talents as well, wrenched on a couple hotrods, spent some time in a circle track car and even have a CDL. I'm something of a rifleman, used to be an avid long distance shooter. I've just finished leadership training for the Boy Scouts and offered an Assistant Scout Leader position in our son's troop.
