Real Housewives of Athens featuring Natalie Glenn
Posted on 11/09/2009 by Cheri Leavy |
Natalie Burke Glenn is a breath of fresh air every time I see her!
Natalie was one of the first people I met in the media world in Athens. She was doing PR with Mickey Montevideo. We met again when she worked for Plexus Web Creations. They did both of our websites www.guide2s.com and www.bulldawgillustrated.com I love every minute of working with Natalie. She is such an asset to Athens and is always giving of her time and energies to philanthropy.
Name: Natalie Burke Glenn
Family: My husband Will, an awesome Mama and brother, the best in-laws ever and sister-in-law, Kelley and brother-in-law, Jack.
Profession: Director of Client Relations at Plexus
Favorite Cookbook: Beyond the Hedges: From Tailgating to Tea Parties – this is the Junior League of Athens’ cookbook and it’s fabulous! Everything I’ve made has been delicious. It contains a wonderful array of recipes from Junior League members (I even have a couple – fabulous french toast, oyster stew, etc.), JLA Sustainers, Athens restaurants, and famous Athenians.
Favorite Fashion Designer: Probably BCBG and INC and I love accessory designers Hobo and Coach
Home Style: Our home is traditional with an eclectic mix of old and new and lots of photos. Will’s room (aka “the man room”) is filled with Georgia Football and Georgia Tennis memorabilia.
Perfume: I like to wear something different each day but some of my favorites are Jadore, Beautiful and Chanel Mademoiselle
Collect: Christmas ornaments from our travels and tea cups
Currently Reading: My book club just finished The Help by Kathryn Stockett – it was excellent! And now we are reading Dan Brown’s new book, The Lost Symbol.
Necessary Extravagance: Bubble baths
Best way to relieve stress: Exercise or a glass of wine
Go to dish for easy dinner: Chicken enchiladas – I cook the chicken all day in a crock pot with onions, peppers and seasoning and then can put it all together with tortillas, black beans, a homemade spicy red sauce and cheese.
Product du jour: I’m addicted to lip gloss – I like and have all kinds but love Aveda lip shine.
Favorite hostess gift to give: Anything monogrammed so it’s personalized – napkins, stationary, etc.
