I grew up out by the Cape and moved out west when I attended college at UMass Amherst where I met my Husband. We have two wonderful boys who are great. In our region of the state local produce is varied and plentiful and I'm often looking for new and interesting ways to use the veggies. I enjoy cooking and grilling especially, although I detest cleaning up. I also like to read and listen to books and podcasts (in the car), gardening, watching butterflies and hummingbirds.
