I work as a psychic medium and own a ghost-hunting business, am married, have a daughter in law enforcement, love to sew, cook, clean, do gardening, talk, organize, help people, and go ghost-crossing!!! I specialize in Italian food since that's what I first learned to cook. I'm fascinated with Italy and love anything Italian. My favorite color is pink and turquoise and I collect vintage Barbies and Liddle Kiddle dolls from the 1960's.
