Everyday Adventures: Or, As My Husband Says, "Lies, Lies and More Lies"
Women everywhere will find themselves within these pages Women, wives, mothers, daughters, friends. Hear us roar. Or laugh. Or sigh. Then watch in amazement as we chauffer kids from piano to soccer, pick up the dry cleaning, handle the banking for our husbands, grocery shop, procure nine (or is it eight, now?) Styrofoam balls of varying sizes for a fourth grade science project, recover six awol pairs of dance shoes, sneakers and cleats, wash and deliver a basketball uniform, call our mothers, commiserate with our girlfriends and prepare dinner for a meat eater, vegetarian and a kid who only eats things that are white or brown. Did I mention that we do all of this at the same time? In her Everyday Adventures, Mary Fran Bontempo steers us through the wild ride of modern day womanhood, not always avoiding the pitfalls, but never losing a sense of humor along the way. If you are a woman, you 1/2ll find yourself in these pages. Better yet, you 1/2ll find reason to laugh once you discover that you 1/2ve got plenty of company on your own Everyday Adventures

I have read Mary Fran Bontempo's articles over the years and this book is a wonderful collection of her funniest essays. It is the perfect gift book for women, especially mothers. Any fan of Erma Bombeck will be thrilled to know that her spirit and sense of humor are still alive and "kickin". I truly laughed out loud as I read this book!!
