Born in Appalachia, now living in the northeast. I code. I read. I live. Sometimes I bake. I try to grow culinary mushrooms with occasional success.

My avatar is the character Gizmo from the movie Gremlins. Gizmo is a small white and brown furry creature with large eyes and big pointed ears.

My background is a picture of a forest at the height of fall colors. The predominate color is gold with hints of orange and light green leaves.
