I like a good red, enjoy reading fiction,cookbooks,artbooks,collecting unusual cookbooks, but I especially enjoy puttering around in the kitchen, preparing something good to eat. I love to match food with wine and then consider the dishes each morsel shall rest on. It is a dream of mine some day to have a bed and breakfast somewhere on the water where I can paint, cook and entertain.
