Hi TahoeChick!
You're in luck. The Tahoe Sierra Century is coming up shortly. You could make it your goal to do the 30-miler or maybe volunteer to see what it's all about. One of the things I love about centuries is the variety I see there. You see so many inspirational things--kids riding, hand bikes, folks with artificial limbs--it would be worth it to hang out there for the day.
For a while there was another Tahoe gal posting but I haven't seen much from her in a while. I think she was on the N shore. I live in Placerville but don't get up to north shore that much. Are you on N shore or S shore (or W shore)?
A really good ride is the Burnside Lakes Road out of Hope Valley, which would be convenient for you if you're in S shore. It's newly paved and you can go as far as you want and then turn around and go back. Remember, you already have an altitute advantage since you live at the lake!
Welcome!

PS Oh! And you will, believe it or not, come to love those hills someday. It happens whether you like it or not. I'm a hill freak, just ask SK.
