I actually love the great outdoors, especially the mountains and the beach. My favorite things include, tea parties, baking, jazz music, music in general, attending concerts, fine dining (Mostly italian) and organic foods, mostly vegetarian, red wine(Cabernet), teas, (I am pretty good at blending teas and herbs), cheese, chocolate, flowers, bubble baths, photography, scrapbooks, camping, hiking, travel, relaxing with friends, yoga, tai chi, dancing and playing with our dogs. Did I mention that I love spa days? I'm rediscovering myself and enjoying every minute of it!

Movies:
Too many to list!
Great movies are hard to find these days. But, an occasional movie is a good thing and something to talk about. Sometimes you need the whole movie experience including overpriced popcorn.
Television:
I have a few favorites such as, (Gray's Anatomy, Dancing with the Stars, Desperate Housewives, Brothers & Sisters, Law & Order, Men in Trees, Oprah). However, I enjoy movies, HBO and Netflix more, unless I need a no brainer sitcome after a long day.
Books:
Yes, I like to read, The Bible, Nora Roberts, and Lori Wick novels are my favorite. Magazines are great too! More, Traditional Home, Sunset, House and Garden, Veranda, Redbook, cookbooks (I love to bake) and O (Oprah).
Heroes:
Jesus Christ!
Some of my favorite Bible quotes are:
The master said, "Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities"
(Matthew 25:23 NLT)Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.
(Matthew 18:19-20)With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.
(Matthew 19:26)
