Watching reality shows has become a secret passion of mine, although - of course - I only watch the true competitions of talent. Riiiiight. I love my husband, my family, my cat, my friends, my home and my life. I'm also involved in the Friends of Pathways, which throws an annual fundraiser for Pathways to Independence (www.pathwaystoindependence.org) and the Long Beach Basket Brigade. I enjoy wine frequently and food abundantly. A good tropical song can make me smile and feel good.
