Brittany

About Brittany:

To be honest, I find it hard to get myself across in such a small amount of space SO I thought I'd answer a few questions to curb your curiosity, but by all means ask and find out more by listening and calling in to my show The Daily Grind (10-2), smoke signals, OR by shooting me an email brittany@borderrock.com. 

Hometown: North Vancouver, BC

Favourite Food: If the second word in the question had an 's' on the end this answer would be encyclopedia length. I'll have to go with waffles for the time being...

Favourite Band: David Bowie. I normally refer to him as just 'David'.

Nicknames: Britt, Brit Brit and B-Money are acceptable. 

When you're not @ The Goat what do you do: Gym, cooking, reading, sleeping, watching Dexter/30 Rock/Breaking Bad/Intervention and getting lost in the abyss of the internet

Favourite Movie: Casino. Robert DeNiro has an excellent selection of suits in the film.

What animal would you be? A leopard. I really like leopard print. 'Really Like' is an massive understatement. 

Random facts : I have been to 26 official "Diners Drive Ins and Dives",traveled to 16 countries and own the most adorable cat in the world named Valescka.
