I'm always cookin' up something good!
Whether it's in the kitchen
or in Real Estate,
I know the Recipe for Success!
I'm a Cajun - born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana.
I studied Journalism and Marketing at Louisiana State University and graduated
with a degree in Early Childhood Education from New York University.
I
have four children and three grand-children. Charlotte, my oldest, enjoys being a
"stay-at-home" Mom. She and her engineer husband live in Michigan with
their beautiful daughter, Ashley. Christopher, a psychiatrist, lives in
Winston-Salem with his musically talented wife and their newborn twins,
David and Eleanor. Next is Michelle who,
with her husband, is a computer engineer. They are currently spending a
year long honeymoon traveling in various Eastern countries. My
"baby," June, and her husband are both studying at seminary in San Francisco.
The three youngest children were ALL married within 6 months in 2003!
I love to cook, sew, decorate, and
read. My husband of 37 years and I enjoy sailing his boat on the
Potomac River. We share our home with our cat, Sugar. I love selling houses
and meeting new people.
Since I
love to cook, I have included a
"Favorite Recipe of the Month" on this page.
