Introduction I am a Democratic citizen who believes in the value of democracy even as I watch my fellow citizens embrace the tyranny of today’s Republican party. I am afraid for our nation’s future. I like to read (I just finished the splendid D-Day Girls by Sarah Rose), garden, and cook. I love…my new hip, feeling hopeful again, living without constant pain, Spring lists, wide-leg pants, pink sweaters, Spring stickers, quality tote bags, Liberty London prints, lengthening days, sunny skies, Spring blooms, history books, soft blankets, sleeping in my own bed, cuticle oil, my Taylor Swift playlist (branching out!), and walking without pain.
Interests Cooking, gardening, reading, being outdoors, politics, foreign affairs, bungalow houses, paper for cards and scrapbooks, working out, camping
