    The song “I Could Never Be Your Woman” by White Town.

    I think probably because I wasn’t yet comfortable with my own sexuality.

      Also the “cheddar” that is normally found in USA is really just another heavily processed American-style cheese with a different color. It’s very different than an English cheddar or a vintage cheddar.

    Gardening.

    Previously my only gardening experience was my mom yelling at me to weed outside in the hot summer sun.

    Now that I live alone, I started getting potted plants, and there is something wonderful about sharing my space with green growing things. I have a few that have really taken to the environment and amount of sunlight, watching them grow is wonderful. Marveling when one of my little planty bois randomly flowers, and there’s something so stress-relieving about digging your hands into soil when it’s time to re-pot.

      Yeah, I’m getting back into gardening despite the whole being yelled at to help garden as a kid! Also if the plants die, when I cry over them, I won’t be told I’m being melodramatic!

    Farming. I worked on the neighboring farm as a teenager. Then, after a long series of jobs and education, became a software engineer. Being a software engineer taught me something: I miss working on a farm.

        Yeah, there’s the joke that jr engineers want to be sr engineers and sr engineers want to be farmers (or woodworkers or whatnot). I like both, but I definitely need the balance of doing something physical and working with my hands.

      I have a mushroom phobia. Can’t even see them without getting goosebumps.

      I have the opposite feeling regarding ghost, 10 years ago they were a cool growing underground bands with a fun make up and lore, and by the end of the 2010’s you would hear them at the radio, and a lot of drama between Papa and the Ghouls (Magna carta cartel is the former Ghouls band, and the legit successor of Ghost)

      Let alone that I can’t afford ticket anymore.

      The description of Ghost I’ve read online: “Ghost is modern day Kiss of rock/metal music” and I think it’s true. It’s more money generator than band.

    I’m not going to say I “love” them now, but I appreciate onions’ use in cooking and flavour profiles now. Whereas when I was younger, anything I ate had to have no onion in it whatsoever.
