An eclectic collection of 50 tiny tales which highlight incidents in a not-so-ordinary life of an occasional columnist for a local monthly newspaper. She is a fervent and hyper-focused maker of many delightful things - some of which are delicious and all of which are quick selling. The supplies for and by-products of her creativity accumulate in her home and she refers to it as her housework avoidance program. This compilation is a great book to pick up and read when you need short amusing breaks or a pick-me-up in your day.
