Chapter 3: Crisco

i am slightly obsessed with using household products for other than intended uses....mainly vinegar (don't get me started on the awesome benefits of using it over chemicals to clean stuff around the house) so the part in chapter 3 when minny shares the various and somewhat amusing uses of crisco got me in stitches! i am so going to try out a few of those and see if they actually work.....like to grease my door or to fix butt rash, heck with frying the chicken in it :) i am enjoying the brazen miss minny!

chapter 4

brand new reading glasses.... i am getting old, but I have readthe first 4 chapters so far - looks like a good read!!!

Great quote from Chapter 2

"All I know is, I aint saying it. And I know she ain't saying what she want a say either and it's a strange thing happening here cause nobody saying nothing and we still managing to have us a conversation."

Hi everyone! I'm excited for this virtual summer reading club. Did anyone decide whether this is open to friends of people invited or are we trying to keep this small? Please let me know because I'm not sure of virtual reading club rules. *grins*

Yay!

Remember the time that crazy lady said she was "fixin' to be done?" Or perhaps, she'd be "righ bay-ack?" Y'all just may need a translator...or a nice, tall glass of Sweet Tea or Mint Juleps...either way, the book is awesome.

Give Miss Aibileen and Miss Minny a chance to grow on you. They may "done tawk funny" but they sure are a hoot. Love, love, love these ladies.

Can't wait to see what you all think about the book.
Thanks Miss WK!
