"I always have a glass of wine and a piece of mutton ready for anyone who will accept my company."

George Washington (paraphrased)

I enjoy many different forms of art and music. I'm very much into classical music and art, and often wonder about a simpler time past when beauty seemed to be more important to people in everything that they did. One of my favorite things to do in life is to cook for friends. It connects me somehow with that slower, quiter time when people had more time for each other and helps me establish one of my goals: to live simply. I've already listed under "Who Am I" the things that I do now, but I'm going to teach myself to paint next, then learn to play the guitar.
