I can’t start my day without three cats harassing me, demanding to be fed, and coffee for myself; it’s not even the caffeine, it’s the ritual of brewing!

Your ultimate celebrity dinner party guest list would include:

Brennan Lee Mulligan, Jesse Thorn, Stephen Fry, and Amy Adams

Long-term personal or professional goal?

A long-term personal goal of mine is to visit every national park in the United States!
