All About Dr. Bloom
January 13, 2022

Both of her children, Zach and Margaret, are West Virginia University alumni and that state and the school (and its sports teams) each still has a special place in her heart. So much so, in fact, that Dr. Bloom is a season ticket holder for both West Virginia football and basketball. She bought a patch of West Virginia land and a 200-year-old one bedroom log cabin that she and her husband, Eric, have been renovating in their spare time. Dr. Bloom enjoys spending time at the cabin and hiking through the woods with her dog, Daisy, who loves to roam around, sniff, roll in stinky things, and chase deer and turkeys. Not surprisingly, part of Dr. Bloom’s time in West Virginia is spent giving Daisy baths.
Checking out new restaurants (especially when she’s in New York City for the annual Vision Expo) is high on Dr. Bloom’s list, as is cooking, and trying out new recipes. She’s a big fan of Ina Garten, Martha Stewart, Ree Drummond, Lucinda Scala Quinn (the spurtle lady from QVC), and more recently, the Maman Cookbook (Check it out. It’s a good one!).
Finally, Dr. Bloom loves travelling and has had a few opportunities to test out her high school French skills in both Paris and in Normandy, where the locals marveled at her amazing command of rudimentary and grammatically tortured phrases combined with pantomime. That experience has no relationship whatsoever to her planned trip this summer to the Scottish Highlands and London.
No matter how far she travels, though, Dr. Bloom always loves returning to the Weber Vision Care premises to work with the best optometric staff in the world taking care of their lovely patients!
