Here I am!

Well, this is my first post.  A bit about me...

I am very happily married to the man of my dreams, hoping someday to become the woman of HIS dreams!  We have four great kids whom we adore but take pleasure in sometimes embarrassing in front of their friends (this is a privilege as parents we claim!).  I am a snob (although I have no right to be) about books, movies and music and intend to post quite a few suggestions (i.e. ego-driven overtly opinionated rants) on what you should read, watch and listen to.  I feel passionately about my religion, simplicity, nature, yoga, food, politics, learning and (most of the time) life!  This blog is an experiment in reaching out to long lost friends, and perhaps making a few new ones. It is also an obvious attempt to keep my mind occupied as my youngest child goes off to school...without me!  I hope you enjoy it now, and return often!  

Quote of the day:  "See school as something that goes on everywhere, all the time, not just in libraries, but in parking lots, in airports, in trees."
