" I read this for a book club, I don't know if I would have ever picked it up otherwise- mainly because I thought the material would be outdated. But I actually found myself really relating to Erma and her hysterical outtakes of motherhood, husbandry, and basic household chores...I found myself laughing right outloud! In one chapter she gives specific instructions to her children on how the dirty clothes hamper works, which CRACKED me up! There were a couple of chapters that left me unsure of the specific events related to the 70's, because back in the day I wasn't concerned with meat prices, etc. But what a funny lady she was & wow- what a great way to look at life!
