Dichotomy personified. Seriously playful yet unyieldingly serious. Acutely intelligent, but prone to blond moments. Left-brain logical, yet right-brain creative. Strong and weak. Flawed perfectionist. Candid yet reserved. Complex in my simplicity. Quintessential romantic. Sensitive, but sensible. Former vegetarian. Addicted to jazz, curry, lattes, Chai and wine. Loves orange in summertime. Not a writer, but an accountant who loves to cook and tell. Prefers crunching recipes in lieu of numbers. Armed with a passion for good food, tons of cookbooks, an active imagination ... and tight jeans!

I pick my friends like I pick my fruit.
