I'm so impressed and glad you made a list. I read some things I would not have guessed about you and I'm glad to know them! And I'm with you on the Italian food, yum.

Jeremy, that was so much fun reading about you. You said you didn't know 100 things about yourself, though. :P

So, this is what Jeremy is all about. Glad you made it to 100! I love that you love your wife so much and I love even more how much you expressed it. And by the way, being a food snob is not necessarily a bad thing!
