Introduction I garden organically and grow fruits, vegetables and herbs. We have all sorts of citrus, fig, persimmon and pomegranate trees. Lots of flowers and plants for hummingbirds and butterflies. I consider myself an amateur gourmet cook using my home grown herbs, fruits and vegetables in my cooking adventures.
Interests Healthy cooking, organic gardening, herb gardening, vegetable gardening, flower gardening, exotic plant collecting, estate sales, breakfast out with friends, trips to the garden center, long summer days, the sound of the sea, gathering sea shells, camping, trips to the mountains, birds chipping, picking flowers, butterflies on my shoulder, living a good life.
Favorite Movies Give me a sappy romance and I am a happy girl.
Favorite Music Guitar, saxophone, and piano. I love spanish guitar music! The classical greats of course, but I also like some of the indie folk music.
Favorite Books Just about any good book on gardening, cooking, poetry, and inspirational reads. The Herb Book by Arabella Boxer & Philippa Back. The Good Herb by Judith Benn Hurley. Herb books by Emelie Tolley
