Passion

I love scuba diving and I will never turn down a trip to find peace 40 feet below the sea. I'm an avid gardener who loves to craft and cook menus with ingredients harvested from a daily walk in my backyard. And, I used to own a bakery and I grew up baking, so making scratch-made cakes (and enjoying a good one) will always be a great way to spend time with friends.
