Introduction I'm a single mom to a 5-year old, a full-time Environmental Consultant, and obsessed with Gardening (zone 5b). I bought our 70 year old house with a neglected yard & overgrown second lot in spring 2008. I always have a home project going on. I love sharing kid stories, learning experiences, and personal opinions. I welcome you, and hope you enjoy the blog.
Interests gardening, biology/science, quilting, knitting, cooking, economics and the stock market, makeup & beauty products
Favorite Movies Apollo 13, Rudy, Selena, Sideways, Footloose, The Shining, Amadeus, Field of Dreams, Evita (the one with Madonna & Antonio), Dances with Wolves, Madonna-Truth or Dare, Brokeback Mountain (it's a good story...get over it!), Life is Beautiful
Favorite Music REM, 70's classics, 80's music...especially 80's new wave, Alternative
Favorite Books Iacocca by Lee Iacocca, Anything non-fiction, Alive by Piers Paul Read, Any Cookbook (except for those local cookbooks made up by organizations for fundraising), The Well-Tended Perennial Garden by Tracy DiSalbato-Alst, Roget's College Thesaurus (better than any internet resource)
