I am trying to eat healthier, which means eating out less and cooking more. I had almost forgotten how much I love to cook!! I am also trying to include more fruits and vegetables in my diet.
I live on the north side of Chicago and work as a pianist/piano teacher. For fun, I enjoy biking and going to festivals and farmers' markets.
