The Galusky family recently re-watched the first few seasons of New Girl and came to appreciate its witty script and show plots all over again! Hannah Simone (aka CeCe) is still my favorite character, whereas my husband is A LOT like Schmidt than he cares to admit.
Here's a fun story that Hannah Simone shared with Elle magazine:
My most cherished article is my grandmother’s necklace that she had her whole life — a black and gold cameo.
It’s a woman’s profile in silhouette, and though you don’t know the woman’s story, you get this strong, beautiful, feminine quality, which is so much like the women in our family — so much like my grandmother.
She was half German, half Italian, and was a nurse in Germany during both World Wars, and that necklace was always a segue to her incredible stories: She was engaged, her fiancé was killed. She started to realize that the men she treated would often not come back.
I remember once asking her, ‘Were you ever engaged before?’ And she laughed. She said, ‘Hundreds of times. Everyone who asked, I said, “Yes!” ‘ She said, ‘It was a no-lose situation. It gave them something to live for and me something to hope for.’
She passed about five years ago. The only time I’ve ever worn it, because I’m very careful with it, was when I did this episode about how much I loved my grandmother on New Girl.
