Love to read. I collect books and have quite a collection but am always adding more. I have also discovered audio books and find that I am able to get through more books by listening to them.
Have recently started knitting and I really enjoy it even if it is quite a challenge at times.
Always searching for a great recipe in any food category. As might be expected I never find "The One" but find many delicious ones along the way.
