I love gardening, reading, and, of course, cooking. I especially like baking bread. I had to quit working full time when I was diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer. Since then I've tried dozens of new recipes, learned how to make soap, and spent lots more time in my garden. Recently a nieghbor and I started raising chickens so we could have fresh eggs. I've never felt so well in my life!
