O
ne pistachio macaron with some Steve Madden pumps, please. Anything for you? I was just ordering from Kim St George’s imaginary bakeshop with a shoe store attached. Intrigued? You should be, for the fresh produce luminary has plenty more in store that is sure to surprise and delight. Hear what the industry vet is eating, wearing, listening to, and more as we throw a few “What IFs” her way…
IF you had to choose now, what would your last meal consist of?
Blackened seared ahi tuna from Roy’s with a side of roasted beets, Brussels sprouts, and Butternut squash. Then, flourless molten chocolate lava cake with a bottle of Rombauer Chardonnay!
IF you could have any actor play you in a movie, who would you want?
Cameron Diaz—she has a great personality: fun-loving, adventurous, talented, and quirky, yet well-respected.
IF you could imagine yourself in a different industry, what would it be?
I would love to open my own bakery with a shoe store attached—the best of both worlds! I’d create deliciously sweet treats that look and taste incredible, while my patrons adorn the most fashionable shoes!
IF you could have dinner with anyone, dead or alive, who would it be?
My grandmother. I lost her four years ago at the age of 98. She was such a big part of my life, and I miss my daily conversations with her.
IF you had to wear the same thing every day, what items of clothing would you pick?
A sundress, hat, sunglasses, and flip flops, as that would mean that I’m likely in warm weather at the beach!
IF you were another species in the animal kingdom, what would you be?
I’ve joked that I’d love to come back to this world as a cat so I could lounge in the warm sun, sleep 20 hours a day, and only socialize when and if I wanted.
IF you could make everyone watch a movie of your choosing, which movie would you want them to see?
I would love to host a The Sound of Music sing-along party! Last summer, I was able to visit Salzburg, Austria, and go on the official tour. The only thing missing on that tour was dressing my family in full Austrian outfits singing “My Favorite Things”!
IF you could join a musician, dead or alive, on stage to sing along or play an instrument with, who would you choose and why?
Tough question—I have a wide taste in music. However, it would be either Queen’s Freddie Mercury, Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler, or Kid Rock, who are all iconic legends!
IF you had a superpower, what would you want it to be?
The power to heal, as there are so many people struggling with health ailments and unfortunate life situations.
IF you had to choose one song to be the soundtrack of your past year, what would it be?
“Here Comes the Sun,” as this past year was the beginning of positive sunshine-shiny days with the easing of COVID. I also started a new chapter in my career at Dole and became an empty nester with two kids in college!
