    About Me

    The 2 things I like best about me are being Italian and being born under the Aries zodiac sign.

    I appreciate great art, architecture, films and literature. The classics are especially appealing, i.e., The Mona Lisa, Falling Water, All About Eve and The Great Gatsby. I love Art Deco and Mid-Century Modern styles in everything from jewelry to furniture. I collect antique rhinestone costume jewelry.

    Much of my time is spent in home renovation (my own and helping others), making clay artwork and creating multi-media furnishings and decorations. My gardens are important. I have an old dog named Chewie, a 13.5 year-old Chow/Springer Spaniel mix. I love to talk, to create recipes and to have people over for dinner.

    I am a polio survivor (1952) and live with effects of post-polio syndrome diagnosed in 1987.
