Music, Movies, and Books

Life as a college student leaves little time for books of choice, but I have been able to sneak in a couple in the past year that have really stuck with me: The Story of B, Cradle to Cradle, anything by Haruki Murakami, and i'm just finishing up Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.
When out in the country or pining for the southwest I love old time folk music, endless bob dylan, CCR and gillian welch. In the city frantic electronica and noise does me well. And a healthy dose of beach house, vivaldi and paul baribeau any day please.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am training myself to be highly visually literate, that is, to notice everything. I cannot leave the house with out spotting something of interest, there is design in everything. Let's take a walk, and I will show you how i see.
ALSO, let me cook for you!!! There is nothing I love more than feeding people. I have cooked for all diets and can make a killer gluten free brownie if you let me!
