I am a working mom who reads (almost exclusively audio books due to long commute), gardens, cans, knits and sews, and enjoys hand writing letters to friends. I have recently gotten into fountain pens and specialty inks as well. I have an advanced degree and dream of one day writing a book. I used to love cooking but it has become more of a chore. I'd love to rediscover the joy of cooking and find the time to return to running.
