Hi there!
My name is Mary Ellen Sullivan, but when I was a kid on our farm my brother Tim gave me the nickname Hairy Melon.
I like that nickname, Hairy Melon. It elicits fond childhood memories. It suggests playfulness, which I like to practice when I write and post on my blog. And it suggests something very dear to me – food!
I must warn you that I get pretty serious at times. I have even been know to be political. But overall, I hope you’re up for a fun journey through my blog posts.
Welcome to my writing life!
