My name is Vera. I am a mom of three. Daughter 22, son 19, and son 17. I just turned 50 last month. I have been married almost 24 years. I am 5'4" and have had trouble with my weight since quitting smoking in 1998. I am a healthy, but chubby woman. I love to cook and sew. I have been sewing forever. I also love most other needle crafts.
