Name: Anna-May Kendall

Kids: Ava, 5, Anders, 4 and my boyfriend’s twin 6 year olds, Kayleigh and Taylor

Occupation: Engineering Administration

Hometown: That’s a tough one.  I’ve moved all over the world, but for the past 7 years Bradenton, FL has been home.

H&H Interview with Anna-May:

1. What are the top 3 items in your grocery cart?

Milk, yogurt, eggs

2. What are you reading (honestly)?

Currently, Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain.  I love to read, and one of my all time favorites is The Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett.

3. What is your guilty pleasure when you get a break from the kids?

Mani/pedi is always a nice treat, or taking a nap!

4. What would we be surprised to find in your purse?

Well, I just looked, and found a pack of un-popped microwave popcorn.  That actually surprised me, but I’m sure I had a reason for putting it there at the time!

5. What is your favorite reality TV show?

My favorite is No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain, Holmes on Homes and pretty much any home decorating/improvement show.

6. What is your cocktail of choice?

A dirty martini with Blue cheese stuffed olives!

7. What is the funniest thing your kids have said or done lately?

With four kids running through the house there are many comical moments. One that comes to mind was finding my son, laying on the couch, legs crossed, looking through my Victoria’s Secret magazine. When he saw that I had caught him he hugged it and said “this is mine mummy!”

8. What is your favorite quotation?

For Attractive lips, speak words of kindness.

For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.

For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.

For beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone.

— Audrey Hepburn

9. Where is your fantasy getaway?

There are so many places I wish to visit.  I’ve been fortunate to have lived in Spain, England, Scotland, visited Hong Kong, Brazil, Norway, Germany, Greece.  I would say if I have to pick one place right now, it would be Tahiti.

10. What is top on your list for Santa this year?

It may sound corny, but I really just hope that my children have a great Christmas.  Afterall, that’s who it’s really all for.  Just seeing the excitment in their eyes on Christmas morning, or driving around looking at Christmas lights – that’s the best gift ever!

11. What is something most people don’t know about you?

One thing most people don’t know about me is that my father was the lead guitarist for one of the biggest bands of their era.  Hint: Saturday Night Fever…

12. What is your secret to staying Hot & Healthy?

Obviously trying to eat a healthy, well balanced diet, drinking lots of water, but most of all, living each day to the fullest, not taking anything for granted, playing with my children and reading to them, and definitely making time for date night with Jaime. Also, making sure to take time for myself, even if it’s just rading a magazine, or getting my nails done.  You know what they say; “If Mummy is happy, the whole family is happy!!”
