I’m the kind of person who will go with you to the flea market to search for a rare or quirky object that only you could love, to hike up a mountain in the rain, and to a party so you don’t have to go alone. Why? I also love searching for little gems in consignment shops, because I like parties better with a sidekick too, and because (if I’m doing any of these things with you) I really like you. I take care of my health with good food and regular exercise. I swim a couple mornings a week, and even though the first dip is cold, I never regret it. It’s a wonderful, invigorating way to start my day. I am a happy and positive person. I am forgiving and able to admit when I’ve been wrong. Aesthetics and sensuality are high on my list. Style, design, music, scents, and the feel of things are my soul food. Cooking is one of my favorite creative expressions, it’s even more fun when I get to share it with those I love.
