The Interview —

Elisabeth Egan, Books Editor, Glamour Magazine and Author, A Window Opens

I’m currently binge-watching “Catastrophe” on Amazon. 

As the Books Editor at Glamour, I get crates of books in the mail every morning. It’s like Christmas every day. 

Be kind to yourself and don’t worry so much about what other people think. And, of course, wear sunscreen. 

I’d love to say kale, but the reality is: Cheez-Its. For me, they’re one of the great rediscoveries of parenthood, with Teddy Grahams as a close second. In fact, my kids don’t even eat Teddy Grahams anymore but I still buy them sometimes for you-know-who. 

Without peeking at the name, I can tell you the make and model of just about every car on the road. Sometimes I get tripped up by Toyotas and Hyundais, but for the most part I’m an automative savant. Meanwhile, I drive a minivan.

Spinach. Fun, right?

A dark and stormy, preferably imbibed on a roof deck with a view of the ocean. 

Real estate agent. Someone else would have to handle the paperwork, though - I’d be in it for the sales angle.
