I was raised in Miami, Fla., lived in New York City for 28 years and now have lived in S.W. Ct. for 8 years.
I love to garden and cook. I make needlepoint rugs, and I have dabbled in painting(oil and watercolor).
My favorite music is the blues. I have travelled alot. I consider myself 3/4 vegetarian because I still love meat - just not too often.
I'm married to the love of my life.
Oh, by the way, my twin sister is Sharon 123.
