About Me

  • I love animals and have a Cockapoo and a cat.
  • And I love being in a boat on the water of the San Francisco Bay on a sunny day.
  • My favorite food is chocolate.
  • I live in an 83-year-old house an hour south of San Francisco.

Favorite Music

  • My favorite singer/actor is Mandy Patinkin, next Hugh Jackman, Audra McDonald. I listen to a variety of music with the exception of opera and jazz. I love surf music and Dick Dale is the best.

Favorite Books

  • Mists of Avalon, The Last Unicorn, and Janet Lewis' The Wife of Martin Guerre. Also Art and Fear. I usually read fiction bestsellers. Just enjoyed reading Cutting for Stone. Am now reading the Southern Vampire series by Charlaine Harris. I have all Marge Piercy's fiction and some of her poetry. I also love Alice in Wonderland and Peter Pan.

Favorite Crafts

  • I love making things! Right now I'm making books, getting started in multimedia art and making soft cloth painted dolls.
  • I make beaded jewelry, collect Asian ball-jointed dolls (love the tiny ones) and if it's a craft, I've probably tried it....and loved it and wished I had more time. I have lots of beads to swap.
