I read that book a while back. Apparently I’m not nearly as intelligent or observant as the rest of your readers, because I didn’t pick up on the iceberg lettuce thing. But that is SO true!

Actually I read part one with extreme vigor, dawdled a bit in part two, and pretty much fizzled out an didn’t finish part three.

I will go ahead and admit it right out loud. I’m shallow. If there isn’t any extreme indulgence of food, sex or drink by the first couple of chapters . . . I’m done.

Dudes, I am seriously, literally LOL right now. You all ROCK! It IS true what they say: blogging is so much cheaper than therapy.

Happy reading.

I was thinking the same thing about iceberg (lettuce) in the 70′s”! Back then, all you ever saw was Bastard Lettuce!

One can FEEL the dysfunction of any older woman standing in your kitchen telling you she never fed her kids iceberg in the 70s. (Were you people alive in the 70s?) Ok, early 80s. In the United Fucking States of America there was nothing BUT iceberg lettuce. Everyone knows that we weren’t introduced to real lettuce until after AIDS hit, “the gays” got fed up and liberated themselves, and we all found out about the food the rest of the word has apparently been eating forever. Did she try to tell you she fed them pesto instead? (snort, as if.)

Clearly, she lies, but perhaps she functions in the realm of profound denial? Either way, if she occasionally turns you on to a great book she can’t be all bad.

I loved this book! My mother (who wishes me only MUCH different rather than dead) bought the book for my sisters. I had to buy mine mydangself – and I was with her when she bought the book for my sisters. Anyway, it’s definitely a keeper.
