I love lemons over chocolate, salty over sweet. Coffee over everything.

I sleep on a couch in my living room because my oldest dog can’t make it up the stairs to my bedroom.

I love seeing myself in my son’s face, but not in a mirror

My happy place is in front of a computer researching my next trip.

I love the inner ab ache after a good pilates session

I am blessed with many, many sisters – two of which are by blood,

I like to order Sangiovese wine more because of how it sounds than it tastes. Though no complaints.

I have at least 20 pairs of reading glasses and often use them as a head band

I Marie Kondo’d my house top to bottom, including a 1/2 dump truck of building supplies from the crawl space under my house.

I am afraid of the snow.

I don’t take advantage of the work-from-home Friday benefit because I feel my dogs are judging me for being in front of a computer all day instead of going to the beach.

One of my most treasured possessions is an African weaving I found in a market in JoBerg. I brought it back had it professionally framed only to realize that the exact same piece, framed the same way is hanging in my local Peet’s Coffee house. Yes, I subconsciously decorated my house to look like my favorite cafe. I did say coffee over everything.Edit
