Erica Shaffer

Tonight I decided to do a bit of homework and this is the result. For the last year or so, I noticed an actress appearing on various commercials whose mannerisms, voice, and smile remind me of Patricia Heaton. Everytime they come on, I tell my wife "Hey, look - It's Patricia Heaton!". Its starting to get old, but I can't help it. Sherry rolls her eyes.

Anyway, tonight I happened to get caught channel surfing and came across the Time/Life infomercial for the 70's Music Explosion. It was hosted by the Brady Bunch's Barry Williams, and (here's where I found out her name) Erica Shaffer. A quick Google search and Ta-Da! Everything you want to know about her, and more. Quite a beauty, if I must add my two cents.

Well, I guess that puts an end to me making any more "Patricia" references to my wife in the future. But you can bet the next time we are watching reruns of Everybody Loves Raymond, I'll be sliding in "Hey, look - It's Erica Shaffer!"

p.s. And don't get me wrong - Patricia Heaton is a fox, too. (That's her picture to the left, in case you didn't know.)
