i'm allergic to cats (but insist on owning one)! i'm passionate about nutrition and fitness, but do indulge in french fries, donuts, chocolate cake, and banana pudding on occasion. i do photography for fun and for pay, but still have a lot to learn (and a lot of gear to buy). i love collecting cookbooks, but don't have the time to use them these days! i have lots of jobs that keep me very busy (and tired)...3 at the moment. i often fantasize about quitting my job and completely changing careers, but deep down, i don't think it's time yet. i'm feeling the urge to make some big changes soon though...stay tuned!i try to be "green" whenever possible, and i'm getting better at it. i am currently learning how to grow vegetables and herbs, and have become more aware of where the food i eat comes from. recently, i have been thinking about this a lot: http://www.michaelpollan.com/omnivore.php
