About Me

Where to begin.....I am a nomad who has travelled far and long all in search of myself and a home. I have recently learned throughout my quest that my home is not a place but a person. He means more to me that I can safely describe and I am a truly blessed person because of this knowledge. All of that being said let me continue introducing myself... I love my family, my friends, great wine, chocolate, and written words by my hand or that of my favorite authors. I have a tremendous passion for butter,eggs, flour and sugar and all of the magnificent combinations which live only in your imagination and of your palate. I am a great work in progress...a masterpiece in the making as it were...I have much to learn and a long life to live..if I am blessed. Change is necessary on the road to self realization, I have found my way back to the path and I hope to be well on my way once again...The trials aren't over but I have made it this far and I am still here and very aware of where I have been.

My Interests

As I have already stated, I love to cook and to bake and not necessarily always in that order..Its so rewarding to make a great meal for someone I love and to be able to nourish more than their body, its such a fufilling thing to know that you have given alittle love and emotional well being in the embodiment and disguise of a great meal..I also love it when I have time and presence of mind to be quiet with just my thoughts and have time to reflect on the most important things in my life or the newest life lesson I have learned for the day. I also enjoy writing when I am able to sit still long enough or to be quiet and let the words find their way to the paper. Fountain pens and fresh ink always make me happy.

Music:

I love music that moves me, that makes me leave my seat and move to what ever beat happens to catch me like Basement Jaxx, Pharrell, Missy Elliot, Duke and C J Bolland{way-way back in the club days} Janet, Nelly Furtado, Beyonce, Aaliyah, Madonna, and the list goes on. I also love music that sings my heart or my thoughts or mood at that specific moment such as Coldplay,Incubus, S.O.D.,Weezer, SADE, PORTISHEAD,Corrine Bailey Rae, Sonya Kitchell,Ms. Larrieux, United By Sound, Jay-Z, Kanye West, Dido, Everything But the Girl,Fiona Apple, Jill Scott, Lauryn Hill, Etta James,Cassandra,Nina Simone,Diana Krall, Miss Badu...to name just a few...Its often very difficult to drive and change cds after every other song...I have got to get a cd burner of my own!

Movies:

There are far too many good movies to even try to list them in this tiny space but I guess I could give a sample of what I dig on...A Clockwork Orange, Mindhunters,Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Lord of the Rings(obviously),40 year old Virgin(uncut version),Ballad of Ricky Bobby,Like Water for Chocolate, A Walk in the Clouds,Pretty In Pink...

Television:

I have most recently begun watching reruns of 24 and can see why it is such an addictive and obvious favorite of many others. The Boondocks is one of the most incredible shows on TV today and I am so lucky to own the first season on DVD..."Black people talking bout save me..." Look into it..you will be amazed. I will always enjoy anything from any of the Law and Order series, Criminal Intent is a vice. Big Love was a great series and I wish that HBO would demand more episodes...but Showtime does have that great new show Weeds, if any of you ever have a chance to watch it do it..its 30 minutes well spent. I love to watch cartoons at any given time of the day...I know..I am still a big kid!

Books:

Anything written by Anais Nin, Poppy Z. Brite, Anne Rice, J.K. Rowling, Tolkien, Mr. Lumley, Edgar Allen Poe, poetry by William Carlos Williams, Emily Dickinson, oh there are so many others I cannot begin to list all of them!

Heroes:

My Parents..My Brothers..My Family as a whole, Angie, Chapale, and all other parents, single or in relationships who are putting their children first. Being a parent is the most difficult,demanding and wonderous occupation out there...such a serious matter.

If only I could go back a few years...say something different at a crucial moment or asked a question I kept to myself....Would it have made a difference at all? I wonder if anything I could have poss...
