My Interests

Travel, wine, music, books, the beach. I love being outdoors, near, or even better on, the water. The ocean preferrably, but lakes, pools and sprinklers work, too. Running and working out, cooking, dinner parties, snowboarding, arts & crafts (don't laugh, I like projects).

I'd like to meet:

some one with the magical power to grant me 2-4 extra hours in my day. Or maybe just eliminate my need for sleep, that would work.

Books:

Just finished "Eat, Pray, Love" (I'd defintely recommend it) and "Lipstick Jungle" (fun mindless chic lit). Next up: "The Alchemist"

Heroes:

I've been lucky to have many amazing influences in my life. My parents, in different ways, have taught me about love, sacrafice, forgiveness, and the value of good old fashioned hard work. My grandparents taught me that true love does exist and can last a lifetime. My sisters have shown me that there's often more than one right way, and that no matter where life takes you, you can always come back home.
