I can't cook much but I'm learning. I like to eat. We spend a lot of money eating out. Got married at the end of 2006, so now I get to figure out what to do with all this impressive cookware and servingware. I haven't eaten meat or chicken in 25 years, and my husband is in the dictionary under "carnivore". If I do cook, I get my recipes primarily from South Beach Diet and my grandmother "Momala" who kept impeccable records before she died. I know who she cooked for and what she made most weekends in 1986.
For work I am a Psychotherapist and Energy Healer. I teach Energy Healing in a 4 year college dedicated to this work. Hubby is in finance. We love our 2 cats.
