Good, crazy, typical Celia Rivenbark humor!
Here's her "take" on a 1950's advice book for wives:
Textbook: "Prepare yourself. Take 15 minutes to rest so that you'll look refreshed when hubby comes home from work. Touch up make-up and put a ribbon in your hair. He's just been with work-weary people. Be a little gay. His boring day needs a lift."
Mama Celia: "Get knee-walking drunk. You've earned it. You've been with four kids under the age of 7 all day. Put a ribbon in your nose and try to pull it out of your mouth. You're wasted, after all. Announce you're gay. Tha look on his face will give you a lift."

Not as good as Stop Dressing but along the lines with We're Just Like You IMO. Rivenbark has a great sense of humor and I'll read anything that she writes from now on!
bright, witty, Southern humor
Very funny! Bathroom reading like Erma Bombeck!
I really enjoyed the book. I find Celia to be rxtremely funny and witty.
The funniest book I have ever read. Can especially be appreciated by Yankees transplanted in the South. LOVE IT!!! LAUGH OUT LOUD FUNNY.
