Sunday, July 16, 2017 No tags Permalink

My dream dinner party would include guests like:
Isak Diesen,  Grace Kelly, Judy Dench, Tom Hanks, Audrey Hepburn, Cybill Shephard, Javier Bardem, Benedict Cumberbatch, Idris Elba, Pema Chödron, Juliette Binoche, Sean Connery, Abraham Lincoln, DaVinci, Nostradamus, Barack and Michelle Obama.

I never leave the house without:
brushing my teeth. Oral hygiene is important! 😀

The place I’d love to return to is:
Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. It is the most beautiful and peaceful places I’ve ever been.

The album from my childhood that I still listen to is:
The Beatles Abbey Road

The oldest piece of clothing in my closet is:
A really old black cardigan. It used to belong to someone very special to me and it looks horrible now but I put it on when I want to feel comforted. I like to wear clothes that belong to people I am close to.

I love to collect:
I really don’t collect things.  Physical things just aren’t that important to me. Memories of good times, that’s what I collect.

The book I love to read again and again is: 
Fugitive Pieces by Canadian poet Anne Michaels.

“When you are alone – at sea, in the polar dark – an absence can keep you alive. The one you love maintains your mind. But when she’s merely across the city, this is an absence that eats you to the bone.”
― Anne Michaels, Fugitive Pieces

My favorite cuisine is:
Italian food, genuine Italian food. And you can’t beat Julia Child’s four-in-hand chicken!

My day isn’t complete until:
I’ve thought about at least one thing I’m grateful for.

The most used app on my phone is:
Strong (it’s a weightlifting workout tracker)

The most stylish fictional character is:
Lisa (Grace Kelly) in Hitchcock’s Rear Window.

I unwind at the end of the day by:
Reading. I’ve read at bedtime for as long as I can remember. I read to my son at bedtime since he was born.

If money were no object I would buy:
A tiny house near the beach in Kona, Hawaii and a nice snorkel and mask set to go with it.
