Food is my passion in life, and it keeps me so balanced and happy as a person. Friends and family members say that I am quite calming and soothing to be around, very interesting, and a breath of fresh air. I think I am very nurturing, trustworthy, and down to earth. When I enter a room with people, they smile at me. Nothing gives me more pleasure to give an even warmer smile back. I embrace any opportunity that allows me to learn and grow as a person. My goal is to become more worldly, cultured, and stylish as each year passes. I would much rather give a gift then receive one. I am always willing to lend a helping hand and always go the extra mile.
