Baking, reading, spending time with my family.
Baking is my passion since I was 5 years old. Its something I like to do to relax. I love to read crime novels, mystery and suspense books and the occasional autobiography. Spending time with my family is the most important thing to me. My nieces and nephews always keep me smiling. We always have fun together. My Mom is my best friend. Family comes before anything for me.
One other thing I love going to church, the friends I have there are amazing. When things get a little overwhelming going there helps me to put things into perspective.
