#1 Wine: I love big, full-bodied red wines, primarily from Sonoma & Napa. I don't think this is an obsession, but there are a few hundred bottles in the wine cellar....so whatever that means.
#2 Postcards: I've been collecting these since I was 12 years old, and still have every single one after all these years. In all I have over 200 postcards saved...the explanation for these is that I'm a pack rat and nostalgic as well.
#3 Refrigerator Magnets: These are just a few...I literally have hundreds, but only a few are on the fridge door at any given moment now. Not sure what is driving this collection, but they do remind me of places and people.
#4 Shoes: My secret & unacknowledged obsession. What can I say, I like shoes. I have tons here in Palm Springs, and another whole bunch at the beach house in San Diego as well.
#5 Foreign Currency: Over the years I have collected all sorts of foreign currency. I like to save them for some crazy reason. This is all about nostalgia and memories of my travels.
#6 Clocks: I really am a collector of clocks. I have loads of them all around the house. I enjoy hearing them all chime every 15 minutes, and when its really quiet I can hear them all ticking. My only explanation is that I am obsessed with clocks, particular those that chime and need to be wound weekly.
#7 Bacarrat Crystal: Believe it or not, I started saving money for Baccarat crystal glasses when I was only 14. Where I got the idea to buy expensive crystal I'll never quite know, but I now have an extensive collection of Baccarat rock glasses, perfect for cocktail hour!
Bonus item: Cuff links: I love to wear French cuff shirts. A few years ago, I started buying all kinds of cuff links to match my mood and personality. I have loads of different styles, shapes an colors.
