About Me

 

img_7558-with-photoshop-fixes

I’m pushing 40 with clairol-brown hair and small feet. I live in a quiet suburb (South Jordan) of Salt Lake City. I dream of going back to school for an MFA. I teach myself guitar and spanish, sometimes, and practice yoga and knitting.

I’ve got maples in my front yard and a treadmill in my bedroom ($45 from the thrift store!); four busy, beautiful boys running around the house and a husband with the most vibrant blue eyes I’ve ever seen; a large stock-pile of french truffles in the dresser drawer and a stack of books by the bed. It’s a beautiful life!
