Introduction I am a late bloomer who, having raised my own children, has decided that it's time to raise myself. . . and help with my grandchildren!
Interests Family, cats, horses, the piano, the Italian language, cooking, decorating, gardening, the beach—especially when the moon is full!
Favorite Movies There are too many to list—I love the movies!—but Cinema Paradiso is probably my all-time favorite. And Gone With the Wind. And 'What's Up Doc?' I love Barbra! And, and, and. . .
Favorite Music Classic rock—what else would you expect from a person with a case of arrested development?—but Otis Redding's "Dock of the Bay" is probably the best song ever written and could very well qualify as my own personal anthem.
Favorite Books If you looked at my buying habits, you'd swear that I only read cookbooks, but I can't remember the last time I was as moved by a book as "The Confessions of Max Tivoli." Andrew Sean Greer's writing is amazing!
