God is good! Life is good! I am very blessed with a sweet ( Engimeer) hubby who takes very good care of me :-) I could live out of a suitcase due to my love of travel! Especially returning to Europe where I lived for a few years. I spend a grrrreat deal of time in Southern California because nearly EVERYone in my family has moved out there . My nephew has a gorgeous Tuscan Villa near San deigo; my former sis-in-law invited me to live with her while I was there for three months recently( best roommate EVER!)in Yucaipa,ca. ; My precious nieces live in
Buena Park, la Mirada; Lancaster area; Palm Springs area & Mohave dessert. Dear dear friends in Oceanside, Sacramento & Palos Verdes & Redondo beach.

School Story

Recently made a shutterfly book of my 3 months is so. California these past few
Months.; lived in Rome ,Italy a few years; taught Italian language; Italian cooking; vegetarian cooking;" down & dirty, quick' easy,30 minutes or less cooking" and a class called "So! You Want to go to Europe!"I miss teaching. Had a Cooking Show on CBS for a year and 1/2 ; would be continually traveling if $$ was no object. Bought marvelous painting from Russian Artist Alexi Butirskiy in Park City,Utah:-) ; stay with dear friends at their ranch in Ogden,Ut and friends in SLC. We are immeasurably blessed with an awesome Covenant Church in Excelsior,Mn with men and women in our Bible Study groups whom we admire and look up to! We love the Lord! Love Christian fiction(the Mitford series especially) Hubby (Rex) was an exec with Control Data for 27 yrs/American Express /& State of Minn. for years :-) ( scrapbooking /card-making are my hobbies. )

Elementary School? (The Class Portrait will be taken by Elementary School Attended.)
