I'm just a plain, chubby, fun-sized, slightly random, curiously strange thirty-something year old woman. I am madly in love with my man. I married my high school sweetheart and best friend in 1996. Our son was born later that year. Hubby and I thought we were done with one, but God had other plans... Our daughter came along nine years later. I adore my family.

I follow Jesus Christ. I'm by no means perfect, but I am loved. I want to follow His example.

I'm a "'Burgh Girl"... a Pittsburgh, PA native who, along with my hubby, has decided to uproot the family and move to Cleveland, OH. Yes, you read that right. Cleveland.

I have never eaten a Primanti Bros. sandwich, or a Wholey's fish sandwich.

My favorite food is homemade pieroghi. Sauerkraut and cheese filled. So. Yummy.

Chocolate and Mexican food are tied for my second favorite.

I will never eat a pieroghi covered in chocolate and salsa. But I have been known to eat all three in the same day.

My favorite color is lavender, followed closely by turquoise and guacamole green. My love of Mexican food has nothing to do with guacamole green being a favorite.

I squeal in delight whenever I see a platypus.

"Cattywampus" is my favorite word.

Put the two together, and you have my blog name.

I write fiction. It's really not any good, but it keeps me sane.

I love, love, love musicals.

I've never been to a Broadway show. *sniff*

I love tea parties. Looseleaf makes me a happy girl.

I love scrapbooking and stamping. There's nothing quite like the scent of a new ink pad and designer paper...

I loathe shopping for myself. Unless it's for food. Or crafting supplies.

I have self-diagnosed ADD.

I'm a compulsive list maker. Surprised?

I hate technology, so I started a blog.

Hubbers and I are aspiring Church Planters. For more information on this, go here.
