Housebroken: Admissions of an Untidy Life

Housebroken: Admissions of an Untidy Life

â€œIf Laurie Notaroâ€™s books donâ€™t inspire pants-wetting fits of laughter, then please consult your physician, because, clearly, your funny bone is broken.â€â€”Jen Lancaster, author ofÂ I Regret Nothing

#1 New York Times bestselling author Laurie Notaro isnâ€™t exactly a domestic goddessâ€”unless that means she fully embraces her genetic hoarding predisposition, sneaks peeks at her husbandâ€™s daily journal, or has made a list of the people she wants on her Apocalypse Survival team (her husbandâ€™s not on it). Notaro chronicles her chronic misfortune in the domestic arts, including cooking, cleaning, and putting on Spanx while sweaty (which should technically qualify as an Olympic sport). HousebrokenÂ isÂ aÂ rollicking new collection of essays showcasing her irreverent wit and inability to feel shame. From defying nature in the quest to make her own Twinkies, to begging her new neighbors not to become urban livestock keepers, to teaching her eight-year-old nephew about hoboes, Notaro recounts her best effortsâ€”and hilarious failuresâ€”in keeping a household inches away from being condemned. After all, home wasnâ€™t built in a day.
