I have two dream vacations, ha! My relaxation one would be a 2-3 week Hawaiian cruise. A more sightseeing one would be trip to Ireland, Scotland and the Greek isles.

I do like to bake! I'm not especially talented at it but I just love baked goods, ha. I don't like to cook much. I've gotten better at it but it's definitely not my passion.

Favorite colors are pink and orange.

I'm currently back in the twin cities in MN, yes! I was living in South FL but after my H passed I moved home to be near family. I have been to WI many times, lived there for about 3 of the last 6 years total, though on the western border as I still went to school/worked in the cities. Unfortunately I'm not super familiar with the eastern side, though its a goal of mine to go to Lambeau one day!

Do you have any guilty pleasure baby names?

What's your favorite reality show?

Hmm that's an interesting question. I love the name Killian but wouldn't use it because it's got the word Kill in it. I also love Sawyer but idk if I'll use it. For girls names my guilty pleasures are Athena and Guinevere.

Fave reality show would definitely be Big Brother, it's pretty much the only reality show I watch, lol. I have seen every season of that terribly trashy show, ha. Oh I like masterchef too. I mean I watch HGTV but I don't always consider those "reality" shows.

Definitely night owl. I have no idea how I'm going to get through the next years of my life, waking up so early lol.

Mountains or beach?

College yes, I went to undergrad for Psychology and then went to law school.

My hobbies are playing with my dogs, reading, taking dance classes (when not pregnant), finding new park trails to walk/hike, trivia night with my friends.

I love both mountains and the beach! But after living 2 miles from the ocean, beach will always win.

What is your favourite pair of shoes that you own?

Depends! If it's true OJ, like actually fresh squeezed, then pulp is good. I don't like store bought with pulp.


My favorite shoes are my Sanuk yoga mat sandals. The most comfortable sandals ever.

Who is your best friend?

Do you have siblings?

Do you have an enemy?

What do you order at the coffee shop?

My BFF is a guy I met and became friends with in 7th grade. I had a huge crush on him until 10th grade when we dated for a month and then he came out to me and told me he was gay, lol. Since then we have been the best of friends and he's like my platonic other half. He was my "Man of Honor" in my wedding and all.

I have 2 younger brothers whom I love dearly, we all get along great.

I don't think I have any enemies? I am not particularly fond of a few of H's relatives but now that he's gone I can avoid them for the rest of my life.

Since I don't drink coffee, I usually just order a juice and a pastry, ha.

Are you a practicing attorney? What's your area of expertise? (feel free to not answer if too personal)

My license is active right now but I'm not currently employed. I probably won't go back to work/look for a job until the end of this year. I've done a few different areas, including government/prosecutorial, family law, and insurance defense. I also worked for a legal research company as a legal research attorney. I am going to go back to government/public sector when I look for a job since it was the area I loved most and it's very family/life balance friendly.

Favorite season?

Are you a shopper? If so, what do you splurge on?
