Curiosity About Me

A random assortment of things about me for anyone who is curious.

1.  I used to work full time but retired five or so years ago – long before Covid.

2. I am a Starbucks addict and have been for decades.  But I don’t drink coffee.

3. I don’t like or wear nail polish.

4. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in January 2013.

5. I’m somewhat obsessed with skincare and wellness.

6. I believe faith is something personal to everyone.

7.  The older I get, the more I understand the wisdom behind thinking before speaking.  (It doesn’t mean I’m good at it.  But I appreciate the wisdom!)

8.  I can be pretty blunt.

9.  I have a bizarre love for Paul Walker and his role in the Fast & Furious franchise (but I also love him in everything I’ve seen him in).  I was crushed when he died.

10.  My dad calls me Mouse.  Cuz I love cheese.  Can’t eat it very often, but I love it!

11.  Hoop earrings are a super power.  I don’t wear much jewelry but I wear $5 hoops pretty religiously.

12.  My husband is my best friend, love of my life, biggest cheerleader and co-conspirator.  He makes life better in every way.

13.  I love the number 13.

This is a picture of us in our seats at PSU last year.  We had just made an offer on a house via our phones and spotty internet. Life is funny – it’s always changing and evolving.  Who would have thought you could buy a house solely on your smart phone?  Not us, that’s for sure.  Until we did it.

    My darling girl: I made a cuppa for lunch and decided to indulge in your blog…what a trip! Your easy, readable, “keep turning the pages” (or scrolling the scroller) style is wonderful…your photographs are stunning and your culinary prowess is formidable! Keep on doing what you are doing! I will bookmark your blog and try to check in on it routinely. Your Mama Bear xoxoxox

  3. Super blog! Well done Gwyneth…. it must have been a lot of work. Px are lovely and the receipes mouth-watering. diving into your blog was a very pleasant, sunny, interlude to my working day – like taking a gentle walk on a perfect summer’s day. You might want to change Wino forever to Vino forever.(“wino” in England has a derogatory meaning – ask your mum and aunty!) 🙂 but may in the USA it’s ok. The tone is light and happy – that’s what we need!!! Good luck and keep up the good work, Mouse!

    Love your blog – would love to have your talent do be able to produce something so well with excellent pics and so many interesting thing to say.
    Do so agree that FAITH is PERSONAL to EVERYONE (also HATE ketchup).
    When you come to visit us in France (and I know you will) I will introduce you to proper CAMEMBERT (not that chalky, ammonia scented excuse for a cheese sold in supermarkets) so you can add that to your top cheese list.
    Will continue to visit
