I am 31. I have been married for almost fourteen years and I have 3 kids inc a new teenager though so I feel older... :)


You got married at 17? Wow.

Kris and I took 14 years to decide to get married. Even if our first date was when she was 17 ...

Actually Saturday is supposed to be the real killer...Sunday is bigger but not as difficult. :ugeek:

Sooooo glad I didn't marry the guy I was dating at 17. I met Geekboy when I was 27, started dating him when I was 31, and we got married right after I turned 36. This is why I'm trying to chase a toddler full-time at 41.

I did. (Good math skills, lol.) It was the best decision I have ever made. Were we ready then?... prob not. I was an idiot back then as we all are, but somehow I still fell where I was supposed to.

Amy once said that Becca is wise beyond her years, and I echo that thought.
I'm dealing with two almost teenagers....I may not see 50!

2 full fledged teenagers (although the oldest will be 20 in August/gasp). I am pulling through but have broken out in a rash.

Im 63, BUT that's in rock 'n roll years!! ;) Married nearly 30 years, 27 year old kid, and a few "accumulateds." Thought everyone would be plus or minus around this age. Young'uns don't cook.

Actually, they do, especially the vegan ones. However, there's a number of reasons for this board to have poor appeal for folks under 40:

  1. It's not smartphone-enabled
  2. It's not a Facebook app
  3. It's not about putting bacon in everything (despite Darcie's best efforts), or other "extreme" hipster cooking
  4. Most of the members of this board are from TOBB, and are people who were already devotees of Cook's Illustrated in 2003.
