I am an East Coast expatriate hiding out in the Midwest...

I am an urban gal living in the suburbs and occasionally hiding in the country

I am a yoga practitioner, fitness enthusiast, believer in the mind-body-spirit connection...

I am a mid-life "revert" to the Roman Catholic faith in which I was raised and which has become an enormous source of support, encouragement, inspiration, and joy in my life...

I am a mom, sister, daughter, and wife...

I am an explorer; adventurous and curious about the world and people around me...

I am educated in the formal sense but I gain insight through everyday living...

I created this blog at a time of great fear and apprehension in my life. I chose to sustain it because of the discoveries about myself and the world around me that it has revealed.



What you can expect to find here:
  • the documentation of a love-hate relationship with the greater Philadelphia area
  • reminiscing about the good-ole-days (the 80's!)
  • complaints about my various ailments and injuries, both real and imagined
  • pictures and stories of gardening, decorating, shopping, sewing
  • my love of irony
  • links to kooky news stories
  • way too much scatological musing for sane people

    Brandy the Spoiler

    I have now been requested by two bloggers to complete one of these quizzes that I find to be akin to a chain letter about angel kisses or needles in the McDonald's playland. But to be a good sport, and yet NOT to lie (I am wholly against outright lying, if it can be helped) I complete this little ditty partly in the form of lighthearted parody, partly in utter truth. The challenge for you is to determine which is which.  Some answers (the truthful ones, that is) may surprise you. Enjoy!

    3 things you wanna try in the next year:  join a book discussion group, sew some slipcovers for my sofa, clear out 50% of the junk in my attic

    3 things you want in a relationship: hey man, 'all you need is love...'

    2 truths and one lie:  I'm female, I'm human, I'm enjoying this quiz

    3 physical things you find appealing in the opposite sex: wandering hands, ample wang, healthy prostate gland

    3 things you just can't do:  'complete' digestion of food without medication, fall asleep easily, play a musical instrument
    3 of your favorite hobbies:  gardening/houseplants, bird watching, cooking/entertaining

    3 things you want to do badly right now:  limit my daily computer time, finish this quiz in a mature, thoughtful manner, cut a fart

    3 places you want to go on vacation: I'm on vacation every day...but I would like to go skiing again someday

    3 kids names:  Ebenezer, Jebadiah, Bathsheba

    3 things you wanna do before you die:  build an addition on our house, make a positive impact on my community, see my child win the Nobel Prize (we can all hope, can't we?!)

    Rae, you and Brandi are getting together for Low Carb Pizza in Chicago and you haven't heard of Lou Malnati's pizza?

    Google it or something, if I'm not mixing up their name, I think they are famous for their low carb crustless pizza!
