Favorite Music Classical, jazz, Windham Hill, my kids practicing their instruments... I prefer the music peacefully in the background of my busy life. If I have time to really listen and attend to lyrics I like just about all types of stuff... rita springer, james taylor, switchfoot, matt redman, norah jones, chris tomlin, U2, caedmon's call, john mayer, jimmy buffet, joshua kadison, michael card, ingrid michaelson, indelible grace, jack johnson, patty griffin, sam phillips, kate bush, chris rice
Favorite Books Anything that makes me think or makes me laugh or demands of me enough interest to become obsessed with finishing it. I'll finish the "need to/have to/should" books eventually but my favorites are the ones I couldn't put down.
