Mackay’s ideal day starts with her new daughter sleeping in late while Mackay enjoys a warm cup of coffee. It continues with exploring a new location with her family, close to home or farther afield, and ends with a great glass of red wine and a delicious meal, preferably that someone else has cooked!
