She was such a delight! Her quotes should be in the school curriculums along side all those “important” historical people. Kids might graduate better balanced with some useful knowledge?

For my (formerly quite active, now dormant) Flickr account I set up a whole page with just Brombeck quotes. She knew how to live, to write, to be funny – she always knew how to ‘say it’…. love her!
