About me

I love to write, I love to cook, and I love to paint! I was born in the year of the Dragon, which explains a lot. I absolutely love sushi and all things food (hence my wide girth), am a vegetarian, love cats, Paul McCartney, monkeys, manatees, fish, and elephants; can't stand politics (but I'm voting again, so watch out! I will at least cancel out someone else's vote...), have no interest in war, wish our troops would/could come home, love to shop, love to write, like to travel, and love surfing the www.

I wish I had a bakery or treat shop of my own, I want my first novel to get published, and I wish I could meet Stephen King, Wolfgang Puck, Nigella Lawson, Bindi Irwin, and Paul McCartney. I also want to see Steely Dan in concert before I die. Hey, that's not too much to ask, is it?

My work

Having a day job SUCKS!!! I'm thankful that I have a job, that I don't have to work outside, and that it pays my bills. But MAN, I just want to work at home. My OTHER WORK:
