I'm a woman in my fifties who loves to read and bird. I'm married and work full-time as a librarian (a cataloger). I'm a Master Naturalist, and the webmistress of the Williamsburg Bird Club.
I write book reviews for Blogging for a Good Book, LibraryThing and (rarely) GoodReads. I'm addicted to books. I buy more than I can possibly read. Also addicted to Scrabble.
I have Marfan Syndrome and currently run the Marfan-List mailing list, the longest-running email discussion list for Marfan syndrome patients and families on the web. I also run the Marfan Life Forum.
I love to cook seafood and vegetarian cooking. I take weekly yoga classes.
Because I get frequent migraines, I figured out that tannins in my diet were triggering most of them. I did some preliminary research (in books and journals) and created a couple web pages to help others who are sensitive to tannins. If you've written to me about tannins and I haven't responded, please don't take it personally. I just have no time to write back.
Groups I'm a member of:
- Williamsburg Bird Club
- Historic Rivers Chapter, Virginia Master Naturalists
