Wine connoisseur.
I am a mother of two sons, grandmother to two, and married to the most wonderful man in the world. My background is strongly rooted in law and medicine, and I am a confirmed conservative thinker. That's not merely a political statement, but an insight as to how I live my life. With strong Scottish roots, I believe in thrift, candor, cooking entirely from "scratch", canning every thing I can, verbosity, laughter, and Lagavulin (neat). I'm also make "Americanized" Haggis yearly for the annual Burns Nite celebration.
