I like cooking, teaching, family, my friends, and all the babies and kids in my life. I am a printmaking artist mainly but I like to paint too. My heart is in a lot of places -- the beach in Delaware, the trees and hills of Maryland and Virginia, the cactus and desert mountains of Arizona. However my body is stuck in the Maryland suburbs of D.C. :-) I grow herbs and vegetables on my back deck. I have a deep love of the Spanish language. My favorite foods are Italian, Thai, Ethiopian, and Greek. SOme of my happiest times are when I was splashing at the pool or the beach with any of my kids.
