We know her from her Brenda’s Blog and the interviews she does with interesting people, but here’s a Women’sVoicesForChange.org interview with 1010ParkPlace Founder and CEO, Brenda Coffee. The topic for the interview was “Brenda’s Favorite Fall Decadent Indulgences.” In the beginning, she was more comfortable answering questions about burgers, blue jeans and her dogs, but once she got going…

Great interview of you Brenda!XX
Thanks, Jennifer. It was fun! xoxox, Brenda
Love your choice of the Valextra bag….After all, who doesn’t need a little “Extra Val” in their life?!? I swear you and I would be friends if we met in person. You hit it right on the head with the Vosges 70% Black Salt Caramel Bar…always my first pit stop in the Chicago O’Hare airport! From Bobbi Brown (who I used to work for) to archeology, the Bible and The Stones, you’ve hit on my loves! (And your hair is looking gorgeous! I want to “treat” myself to Rita Hazan and Jacques, just a train ride and several hundred dollars away. Haha!)
You’re so funny! I always love it when I see you’ve left me a comment, so you’re the extra Val in my life. We’re already friends, we just need to fix the “meet in person” thing. I’d love it if you came into the city some time when I’m there! Oh! Don’t forget we both like “Stuck in the Middle w/You!” xoxox, Brenda
I would love to meet up with you, Brenda! (Thank you, thank you for getting rid of a case of “ear worm”…”Simply having a wonderful Christmas time!” Has been replaced with “Stuck in the Middle with You”…SO much better!) 😉
Love the interview! Thanks for sharing it with us! What a fascinating life you have been given! So fun to hear of your adventures!! And I LOVE your new hairdo! Beautiful Brenda!
