About

 

My name is Kathleen and I live in West Palm Beach, Florida.  I am retired.   I was born in Harford, Connecticut and moved to Florida when I was 13.  After starting college I flippantly left and was hired by TWA (Trans World Airlines) as a Flight Attendant and lived in New York while working for TWA  for twenty-two years, flying mostly International flights and sometimes domestically.  If I wasn’t traveling for work I was somewhere on vacation at all times.  During that time I enhanced my photography skills on five continents, gardened in NYC (they called my apartment  “The Jungle”), learned to scuba dive and snow ski , and of course cooked some fine meals for some famous, infamous and wonderful people.

When I retired from TWA I entered the world of real estate (like every other Floridian) but was drawn to work for new home builders.  Spent about 15 years being a Design Coordinator for a number of builders here in South Florida.

Other areas of expertise (things I like to do) include working at a farm stand in Glastonbury, Connecticut selling fruits and vegetables, a fabulous bakery in Lake Park, Florida eating and selling delicious breads and treats.  There was some time spent as a model in Palm Beach and New York  and a part-time position as a sound-tech for ITN for news events in New York.

The things I liked in the past I like now.  I don’t travel as much as I would like.  I wonder if my knees could survive water skiing or snow skiing?  I cook and bake almost everyday.  I have a garden, plenty of flowers, herbs and a good part of the year tomatoes and hopefully more vegetables this year.  I am learning how to photograph food for this blog (slowly).
