- My name is Elease and I’m married with two kids, two birds and a dog.
- I live on a small island in Massachusetts.
- I was a teacher and used to own and run a Montessori elementary and middle school. I’ve worked with kids and families for my whole adult life. Closing my school two years ago was the hardest thing I’ve ever done; and also one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
- I think I’m funny. I love to laugh. I am constantly making jokes, puns, one liners. I can turn anything into a pun or a dirty joke. I love pranks.
Oh, and I did stand up once. It didn’t go that well.
- My taste in music is almost the same as it was in high school…George Michael, Erasure, and Billy Joel never get old.
- I’m a homebody.
- Preparing food is one of my very favorite things to do. I don’t like using recipes or planning ahead. I like to experiment and cook based on whatever I’m craving or feeling that day. If I make you food, you’re gold in my book.
- I’m obsessed with rearranging furniture. I mentally redecorate and reorganize other people’s offices and homes in almost every room I’m in.
- I love the evolution of everyday life, seeing what each day brings. I take control of what I can and try to ride the rest.
- I’m extremely honest and that sometimes backfires on me. I’m also very sensitive and emotional. It can be an explosive combination.
- I’m very liberal. (see #10)
- It’s almost impossible to surprise me.
- I love to entertain and spend quality time with people.
- I love gardening.
Lily singing to the zucchini flowers and checking out the growth! - I don’t half-ass many things. I prefer not to do something unless I know I can do it well.
- Quality matters to me. I love high-end products and would rather not have it if it isn’t the best for me. This includes friendships.
- During my freshman year of college I intentionally lost my Long Island accent. I still do a great impression though…and it comes back when I’m mad or when I drink.
Summer hike in 1996 - I met my husband on the very first day I arrived at college at the school’s Make-Your-Own Sundae Social. We’ve basically grown up together and just spent our 21st New Years together!
- I have high expectations of everything and everyone.
- It’s my lifelong dream to own a Volkswagen classic convertible beetle.
- Three of my favorite movies star Steve Carell: Dan in Real Life, The Way Way Back, and Crazy Stupid Love.
- Paddle Boarding, beach cruising, reading, walking and coffeeing are great ways to pass the time.
- I love wine. Especially in Sonoma with my friends.
- I love my family. A lot.
- I really appreciate the good things in my life, and do my best to learn from the challenges.
I really loved learning more about you! Thank you for sharing, I really enjoy your human and insight!
