favorite novel and author? It changes. Lately I've been thinking about William Goldman, who died last month. He's best known as a screenwriter, but his novels were little gems of wit, heart and construction. If you get a chance, read Princess Bride and Magic. They were exceptional novels before they became hit movies.
favorite perfume/scent? Black Diamonds by Elizabeth Taylor
coffee or tea? Tea
are you a cat or dog person? I object to this question. I love critters. I have cats because my lifestyle is cat friendly. But I could easily lose my heart to a dog.
which mythical creature would you transform into if you could? No specific myth comes to mind. Though I would like her powers.
via GIPHY
favorite time period? Mid century. Either the 1860s or the 1960s. Such tumult and romance!
name 3 films that have changed your life and have shaped you into the person you are today.
Mary Poppins
The Way We Were
To Kill a Mockingbird
diamonds or pearls? Pearls. The more you know about diamonds, the less beautiful they become.
what’s your biggest dream? Independence/security
dream destination? Lately I have been fantasizing about a return to the Spa at Colonial Williamsburg. It's financially not in the cards, but it's where my mind wanders.
favorite fictional character? Jo from Little Women
share a quote or passage that means something to you.
what’s your favorite plant/flower? Carnations. They are colorful, versatile and fragrant.
do you prefer the forest or the ocean? why? I like big water (rivers and lakes, too). I like their motion and their colors.
what do you value most in people? Availability. The willingness to be there. (Which reminds me -- I owe two friends phone calls!)
These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.
I love To Kill A Mockingbird, I could have put that as my favorite novel too. You picked great movies and Jo from Little Women!!! YES! Great answer! Loved your answers! Have a great day!

Liz made some fantastic fragrances. I used to wear one but I forgot which one.
ReplyDeleteHow did I not know The Princess Bride was a book??? That's going on list of books I must get around to reading. Availability. What a great trait! I should have thought of it. I'm always lamenting the fact that friends are never available to do anything.
