#ThisorThatThursday Interview with Mary Helen Sheriff
/
I’d like to welcome author, Mary Helen Sheriff to the blog for #ThisorThatThursday! (We found out after we met that we went to the same high school in Virginia Beach.)
Favorite foods: Popcorn and wine
Things that make you want to gag: scented hand sanitizer and candles
Something you wish you could do: Sing.
Something you wish you’d never learned to do: Rehab a sprained ankle.
Last best thing you ate: The La Parisienne sandwich at Greenbriar Café and Coffeehouse (ham, brie, raspberry jam, aioli, arugula). It’s normally on a baguette, but I had on a croissant--yummy!
Last thing you regret eating: Chick-Fil-A sandwich and fries
The last thing you ordered online: Mailing labels to make book plates that I can mail to people who can’t come to book signings.
The last thing you regret buying: I bought a custom coffee table and side table from a furniture maker on Etsy. They cost several hundred dollars, and my family told me the tables looked like they’d been built by raccoons.
Favorite places you’ve been: Greece and Hawaii
Places you never want to go to again: Burlington Coat Factory bathroom (I’ll spare you the details.)
Most daring thing you’ve ever done: Skydiving.
