Interesting Facts
I love coffee. I like it strong with just a little bit of cream. I drink it every morning and my day just doesn’t feel like it has gotten off to the right start unless I have that cup of coffee. My favorite is Major Dickson’s blend from Pete’s coffee.
I eat an egg and a piece of toast every morning. If I am not somewhere were I can make that for myself I buy a bacon gouda (no bacon) sandwhich from Starbucks and a grande iced coffee with a little cream and lots and lots of ice!
I only wear solid gold jewelry. I LOVE to wear the jewelry I have. I like to wear my pieces all the time. I found that if it isn’t solid gold it won’t hold up to the wear and tear of daily life. So I have a very small collection but each piece has a special meaning for me.
My first professional acting job was opposite Ryan Seacrest in a game show called “Click”. Merv Griffin personally cast me in the role of Ryan’s co-host on a computer based game show. I am often asked how it was working with Ryan and my answer is that it was really nice. I was 16 at the time and the same age as his little sister and he was very kind and looked out for me.
I spend my summers on Orcas Island off the coast of Washington state. I work at a little family owned Mexican eatery called Mijitas and at my brother-in-law’s place called Roots. I love spending time on the island and being surrounded by water and beautiful evergreen trees.
I absolutely LOVE to read. I read my Bible every day and center myself. I read psychology books to grow and learn, I read science fiction and historical fiction just because! I’d rather read than watch a movie. :)
I LOVE Alpacas. They make me giggle. I don’t know why!
I love love love love love love love Shakespeare!!! My instagram handle is part of my all time favorite Shakespeare quote from Much Ado About Nothing:
Don Pedro: …to be merry best becomes you, for out o' question you were born in a merry hour.
Beatrice: No, sure, my lord, my mother cried, but then there was a star danced, and under that was I born.
