Do you or does anyone you know have a mom who can only be described as little bit wacky? (Hi, Mom!) I’ll even admit that I already do fall into this category, and the truth of the matter is it’ll probably only get worse as my children ease into their own adult lives. But, Adam…

Sue Ellen’s Girl Ain’t Fat, She Just Weighs Heavy
I was born in Ohio, but only lived there six months. I grew up in Tennessee, and I am definitely a southern girl (you’d guess that if you could hear me talk). I’m sure that women in other parts of the country are recognized by certain traits, but women in the south have distinct characteristics…
It’s All Relative: at Kirkus Reviews Blog
Memorial Day Weekend starts today, especially if you’re in our local school district, where kids have the day off. The kick-off of summer this weekend means more than just barbecues and kids draped around the house all day telling you they’re bored.

Together, they have written a murder mystery like no other. Lutz and Hayward took turns writing chapters, reading each chapter “blind” and making comments by way…
The Crabby Cook
For a long time I thought I was the only crabby cook I knew. While I complained my way through daily cooking for my picky family, I envied my friends who seemed so Martha Stewart-y, all rushing around recipe-swapping and table-decorating, searing tuna and braising beef cheeks. Can you relate? Do you appreciate the humor?…
I’m Dreaming of a Black Christmas
Lewis Black happens to be one of my favorite comedians. His topical, and often political, humor appeals to me with its perspective, but the best part of it all is the delivery. Lewis Black is angry.
