My name is Geri, a true Baltimorean but a current DC-area resident. I love books, crafts (and making anything with my hands), cooking, biking, thunderstorms, and baseball (mainly, the Orioles).
I always prefer to do the dishes as I cook, and not after, because I love the reward of my meal. I also love wine and board games (together, preferably). Pub trivia is a favorite activity of mine, even if I usually come in last place.

I've been a vegetarian since I was 11 and became a fish-eater again in college. Now, I won't trade my sushi for anything.

I became gluten-free in July of 2011, after a semester of pastries in Copenhagen forced me to re-evaluate my stomach's abilities. Because I have an intolerance and not an allergy, I still drink beer without worry. I'm still working on finding a more interesting favorite besides Blue Moon, though.
