My self-summary
Looking for that elusive thing called chemistry.

I am not originally from Rochester. I moved here about five years ago for a job opportunity and I am still in the process of making Rochester my new home.

I am a bit of a geek. Most days I am looking at cells on my microscope. I also love to read. Perhaps these are not great ways to meet men?

I think that food is one of life's great pleasures and I have a lot of fun playing in the kitchen. I especially love to cook for my friends. Cooking for multiples is always more fun than cooking for just one person! Recently I have been experimenting with baking my own bread. I love to try new restaurants as well.

I spend a lot of time outside. I have a green thumb (mostly) and I make floppy hats and garden clogs look damn good while I am working in my yard! I love winter but I am starting to plan what i will plant in my tiny garden plot this spring.

As far as I am concerned, any day on the water is a good day. Last summer I had the opportunity to try out water skiing for the first time and I can't wait to get back out there. I will NOT pull on the rope this time! If you have ever tried to water ski, I think you will know exactly what I mean. I like to walk to my destination whenever I can (which is not very much based on my location) but I want to add a bike to the mix. I am toying with the idea of doing a bike commute to work...we'll see!

What else? I love to play Pickleball, watch movies, enjoy good wine, and hang out with my friends. I am an amateur birder but I miss most of the good birds because I like to sleep late. Does anyone in this town play backgammon?
What I’m doing with my life
Trying to live in the moment and without regret.
I’m really good at
finding the needle in the haystack.
The first things people usually notice about me
Probably my hair because it is pretty short.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
I am always reading something. A few of my favorite books include Magician's Assistant, Three Junes, Peace Like a River, Desert Solitaire, and Bel Canto. I just finished Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail by Cheryl Strayed. I am currently reading Shark's Fin and Sichuan Pepper: a Sweet-Sour Memoir of Eating in China by Fuchsia Dunlop and Plagues and Peoples by William McNeill. I did mention the geek thing, right?

Current favorite shows are Portlandia, Girls, Treme, Homeland, and The Americans. I really miss the Wire. Movie faves include Flirting with Disaster, Rushmore, Sideways, Hilary and Jackie, Dawn of the Dead, and Y Tu Mama Tambien.

Favorite music is much harder to narrow down but I must admit that I love New Wave from the 70's and 80's. In my car, the radio is set at either NPR or WBER. I also listen to a lot of podcasts while I am working at my microscope. This American Life, The New Yorker: Fiction, PRI Selected Shorts, and Savage Love are top selections of mine.

Garlic

I spend a lot of time thinking about
Lately I have been wondering why most of the men that I am interested in meeting live in Toronto or NYC...sigh. :(
On a typical Friday night I am
Recovering from the week at home or out with friends.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit
Perhaps that I loved Duran Duran in the 80's?
