I have two homes and divide my time between California and Florida. When it gets a little chilly in LA, I jump on a flight and go to the warmer climate of Miami. I frequently get invited to the parties at the Playboy Mansion. All of Hef's parties are such fun and there are so many celebrities on hand. Some of the celebrities that I have met include James Caan, Jackie Chan, Gregory Hines, Tony Curtis, etc. And of course the food at the Mansion is amazing -- in particular the lobster and the shrimp. Mmmm!!

So what is Hugh Hefner like? Well, he is an absolute living doll. As for my favorite Playmate -- I can't say, because I love them all! We are all sisters. I get to see a lot of them at the Mansion and also at the Glamourcon shows where we gather not only to sell memorabilia, but also to swap stories and have a good giggle.

Before I say goodbye I will leave you with an amusing story that happened to me during a Playboy photo shoot. I was posing for Playboy's Playmates Revisited pictorial on a beach wearing only a necklace made out of shells. There I was on the sand when a man walked past. He looked directly into my eyes -- nowhere else -- and said "Nice weather we are having" and continued on his way!

I hope you have enjoyed my story as much as I have enjoyed sharing it with you. Thanks for stopping by!

Take care,
