Passions to restore the Soul
Italian Food
I love preparing Italian food in my kitchen for guests. Nothing better than opera music playing, a glass of Brunello in my hand, and guests enjoying the aromas of the meal I am preparing for them.
Wine
What can one say about wine! a crisp Sauvignon Blanc on a patio, a bold red with an Alberta steak, a Chianti with pasta. there is one for every taste and occasion
Great times travelling with great folks
Travelling feeds the soul and the spirit. understanding different cultures and values enhances our abilities to think critically and value what is important.
Motorcycle touring.
The fresh air, wind in your face, and unknown adventures along the way. For me this is spiritual - along a road with just your thoughts to keep you company.
Golfing
Golfing with a friend or a stranger, it's great way to really get to know a person. The focus and concentration to make each shot count is great discipline
Christmas baking
Christmas baking day for me is a favourite. I feel like I am honouring my Mother and her traditions. Plus have friends and neighbours over for tea, mince tarts, and Eccles cakes.
