Just for Fun

Life is too short to not enjoy ourselves. You have things you love to do, and so do I!

This page is dedicated to sharing fun stuff. Here’s what I love (no promises that this will not morph):

  • Eating and drinking delicious things – cooking, baking, visiting great restaurants, sampling wine and beer and the ever-expanding world of spirits … any suggestions?
  • Music – classical (KUSC FM is da BOMB), choral, baroque, symphonic, chamber music, international, jazz, bluegrass… I’m trying to understand hip-hop (really).
  • Languages and their cultures – currently studying Dutch.
  • Reading wonderful books – O.M.Goodness, big shout out to public libraries everywhere, what an embarrassment of riches are to be had at the library!
  • Theater, in all its wonder – we are so blessed with great theater in Los Angeles!
  • International, blockbuster, and other cinema – same, great blessings!!!!
  • Challenging myself – I STILL want to run a marathon someday (it will happen, I believe it can happen).
  • DOGS – Rosie and Poppy say “Hello!!”
  • Gardening – OK, this one is aspirational, my back hill is a disaster, but I’m into it and I believe with the conviction of good intention that I will have a cottage garden soon.
  • Crossword puzzles – ecstatically satisfying and torturously perplexing
  • What else? We’ll see…
