In ten brand-new stories and three previously published favorites, Notaro shares the sidesplitting daily disasters of the holidays, like finding herself on emergency feminine product recon at midnight on Christmas Eve; surrendering to the inevitable Horrible Gift Parade by simply asking for holiday dish towels and giant white underpants from Sears; battling the morons in line at the Seventh Circle of Hell, otherwise known as the do-it-yourself craft store; and trying to live down her reputation as the Most Unfun Christmas Party Guest Ever, due to an unfortunate misunderstanding involving a fake overdose and emergency paramedics. IT’S LAURIE NOTARO’S HOLIDAY HANDBOOK.
PREPARE TO LAUGH YOUR TINSEL OFF.
It’s the most wonderful–and most dreadful–season of the year, when boxes of truffles attack your thighs, drunken holiday revelers stay long past their welcome, and your grandmother has conniptions at the department store over the price of hand lotion. She’ll be the one dialing the cops..
So whether you find yourself at the Dull and Smart Party or the Raucous and Stupid Party this holiday season, you’ll always
Excellent historical perspective on forestry in the United States. When we join (or rejoin) Rabbit in 1979, he has been the general manager of old Fred Springer's (his wife Janice's deceased dad) Toyota dealership for several years with prospects looking good in the midst of a gasoline crunch. I really enjoyed reading about this subject from a Jewish perspective. Took guts to write. Very nice pictures of a wide variety of uniforms and gear. The writing from his perspective is exactly as I would have expected with a past even darker than I imagined. I recommended this book to another artist interested in working with the book form and when I came to amazon.com to send a direct link I couldn't believe there is only one review for this book. Danforth learns from Martin Luther King Jr on how we can bring together a racially diverse nation. I highly recommend this to the more advanced church pianist.. This is a lovely little book for tiny ones to read. They’ve combined their storytelling skills with no holds barred, develop
Good job Mom!…It's the perfect diet food, because biting into one is like biting into Jennifer Lopez's double-decker ass at Madam Tussaud's, kind of like sinking your teeth into a thick, dense bar of Irish Spring--without the flavor. With some new and some best-of material (the venerable Jingle Bell piece about a Barney-obsessed neighbor is here), this volume covers many a family holiday at the Notaro household, with an amusing assortment of ill-adjusted siblings, in-laws, and that grand dame of dysfunction and buzz kill, Notaro's mother. Or who can let loose the funny fury of wrong-headed Christmas gifts, such as her mother's peculiar affinity for food-scented candles: Always on my list is a scrumptious delicacy from my mother's favorite Wax Candle Baked Goods store.

Idiot Girl's Christmas is a holiday worth celebrating. I can't believe it. Like her other titles, Laurie Notaro's
An Idiot Girl's Christmas is a bon bon of a book--one that is so honestly observed that, if you are at work, you will find y
. She does not adhere to the saying “It’s the thought that counts” when the thought is “If I clean it off and put a bow on it, she won’t know I used this,” but she does think it’s funny to call out on the Holy Night, “Ho ho ho and a bottle of rum!” because it makes her mother mad. This is her fifth book. Laurie Notaro loves Christmas, despite the fact that last year she was the unfortunate recipient a jar of previously owned bath salts and an XXL sweater with a snowman on it
