We hope you are enjoying these weekly feature posts from the authors of Inspired by Life…and Fiction. We’re sharing some of our favorite things to help you get to know us a little better—and we’d love to hear your answers to these “favorites” questions in the comments below.
Favorite Beverage (whether hot or cold): Espresso (or coffee). Hot (and I mean really hot, as in I nuke it a good 20 seconds post brewing). Then I use a heated mug to help keep it piping! But I also love cold. Or frozen, as in coffee ice cream. Pretty much just love espresso/coffee.
Favorite Color (and why): My current favorite color is a certain shade of green. It all started when I chose Sherwin-William’s Mountain Road paint as an exterior accent color on our house. I love the calmness of the shade. I’ve got it in the bedroom now, the chairs in the great room are that color. I’m drawn to it everywhere I go. My Aunt Jean even crocheted me an afghan that’s very close to that color.
Sherwin-Williams describes Mountain Road as “a rugged and refreshing green-gray neutral that will have you sniffing the air for a cool, pine-scented breeze. Create a calmer space with this muted hue.” Whatever… I just love the color!
Favorite Thing You Collect: While I don’t officially collect anything, I do enjoy dish towels and will often grab one while on a trip as a small memento. But they’re not just for show. I use them until their life is done, then I thank God again for the trip or experience they remind me of—and toss! I’m becoming more of a minimalist as I get older. Clutter makes me nervous. 🤣
So tell me, what are your favorites? : )

I love collecting dish towels (and have a couple in my drawer that YOU have given me! Thanks for sharing! 🙂 )
