About Me

I am a thirtysomething mother of two boys. I am an Army wife, and I have been married to my best friend for ten years. I realized he was the only man for me seventeen years ago. I love to write; mostly poetry and short stories, and I love to cook.

I grew up eating cuisine from all over the world, so I love trying new recipes and I also collect cookbooks. I enjoy arts and crafts, and I am a massive video game nut that will play for hours on end when I can find the time.

I am also in the middle of a self-induced metamorphosis; I didn't like where I was physically after having had my last son, and I got tired of making excuses for my weight, so I decided to do something about it. This is an ongoing journey that has yielded mixed results, but I am by no means finished.

I am also an avid animal lover and have two dogs, Max and Marty, and two cats, Jade & Snarf. I am very much into ecology and I am very committed to using natural products whenever possible in my life.

Some people march to the beat of their own drummer; I have a whole damn orchestra!

Thanks for stopping by, and I do hope you'll follow my blog if you enjoy it.
