 My name is Angela and I will be 31 next month.  I have a son will be 20 months in a couple of days (mind blowing).  We live in Beaverton near the Streets of Tanasbourne.  My favorite hobby?  Hmm... Right now I am loving reading.  I am finishing the last book of The Hunger Games.  My fave restaurant...at the moment, I don't have an all time favorite, but am LOVING getting out to the food carts on Hawthorne!  Whiffys and Potato Champion are the best!  From Whiffy's, I get the mixed berry pie, and Potato Champion has the best fries ever!  Get the hot mustard sauce for them!  OMG!  So yummy.  The taco truck there is really good too... I just can't remember the name of it.  I started on The Knot in I think 2007 and shortly after getting married switched over to the Oregon board in 2008.

Name: Amy

Age: 31

Pregnant/kids?: No, 1 daughter, 10 months old

Area you live in: Washington Square area

Favorite hobby: Probably shopping, sad, I know, but my and my daughters closets make it hard to deny.  Other than that probably reading.

Favorite restaurant along with favorite meal from it: Oh wow, I am a total foodie so there are way to many to choose from!  I love Nostrana, the Nostrana salad and the pizza are great.  If you like Indian food you have got to try Chennai Masala by Streets of Tanasbourne, it is amazing.  For burgers I love 5 guys, but I haven't been able to try Little Big Burger or Foster Burger yet and I hear both are fantastic!  Oh wait, that is way more than one...

How long you have been on the Oregon Board: Since November 2009, I was on the Knot a lot prior to that when I was planning my wedding

3 kids- 15 1/2, almost 6 and 20 months.

I live in Camas. I love Twilight Pizza and Roots. I have been on the Oregon board for 5 years or so since my Knot days, but have been very inactive (lurking) for a long time. I'm ready to join in again.

 

Oops I forgot! My hobbies are cake making, reading and trying to Kayak! Of course when do I have time to do all this? Never.......

KahlansMom

Name: MonicaAge: 27Pregnant/kids?: 30 weeks pregnant with first baby :)Area you live in: Vancouver, work by the airportFavorite hobby: Spending time with my family and my dog, reading, "nesting" at home, dinner dates :)Favorite restaurant along with favorite meal from it: This is also really hard for me since I have so many favorites, but the two places that pop into my mind when I think FAVORITE is the meat mezza platter from Nicolas on Grand.  Hands down, the BEST lebanese food in Portland.  Or the pesto linguine with scallops from The Montage.  But the Montage is slightly less thrilling when I can't go there and share a bottle of (half off Mon-Tues!) red and have a couple oyster shooters with my best friend.How long you have been on the Oregon Board: I found this site a couple months ago, but I mainly stick to the July 2011 board....  Sorry, I'm a cheater, I know.

We've lived here a year and haven't really been out to eat to anything other than at chains. Don't really have a favorite right now. We just go with what we can afford at the time.

Hi, I'm Stephanie. I'm 36. (Yikes!) I'm not pregnant, but hope to be in the near future. I have a daughter. She's 15 months. We live in NE Portland.

As for a favorite hobby, I don't really have one. I enjoy cooking and reading, but I don't spend much time doing either of these things.

My favorite restaurant - I have a few: Lucca (Funghi pizza), Pok Pok (Vietnamese fish sauce wings), Screendoor (Blue Plate Special catfish). Yum!!!

I've been lurking on the Oregon board for a couple of years now on and off. The board tends to be slow, but I've enjoyed some helpful information shared by others. Thank you!
