Well, in my high school, "Family and Consumer Science" was what they renamed the home ec program. Does that make a "family and consumer scientist" a housewife? Or maybe a recipe tester or something of the sort.

Maybe. Or maybe one who practices "family and consumer science" in a lab and spreads their findings.. in Good Housekeeping?

Well, maybe it's just me and all, but I think you'd be a fantastic nun. B/c I just think of you and there's something that *screams* Catholic. :)

Also, a fantastic muppet. With that in mind, you really need to see Hot Fuzz. It's one of the funniest movies I've seen in ages.

So that would make me Emily the muppet nun. I can definitely see Sesame Street clerical hijinks ensuing.
