Stop Dressing Your Six-Year-Old Like a Skank: And Other Words of Delicate Southern Wisdom This is the first book by Celia Rivenbark that I have read and I am now a fan! I was raised in the South by a Southern mother and every single story in this collection brings up memories. You will laugh out loud and may even walk away with a new expression or two. I’m waiting for “We’re Just Like You, Only Prettier” to arrive so I can devour those stories as well. In the meantime, take off your ankle bracelet or people will think you’re easy!!! :

Celia Rivenbark’s essays about life in today’s South are like caramel popcorn—sweet, salty, and utterly irresistible
 
Celia Rivenbark is a master at summing up the South in all its glorious excesses and contradictions. In this collection of screamingly funny essays, you’ll discover:
* How to get your kid into a character breakfast at Disneyworld (or run the risk of eating chicken out of a bucket with Sneezy)
* Secrets of Celebrity Moms (don’t hate them because they’re beautiful when there are so many other reasons to hate them)
* EBay addiction and why -It ain’t worth having if it ain’t on eBay- (Whoa! Is that Willie Nelson’s face in your grits?)
* Why today’s children’s clothes make six-year-olds look like Vegas showgirls with an abundance of anger issues
* And so much more!
Rivenbark is an intrepid explorer and acid commentator on the land south of the Mason-Dixon line.
