Book Description
There is life after fifty. In case you were wondering. And best-selling author and very funny lady Martha Bolton is here to wax hilarious on every part of it -- from the perils of exercise to the puzzling tradition of fruitcake, the annoyance of tailgaters to the miraculous powers of pie. Martha's humour is just as clever (and needed) as ever -- she takes on nutritional labelling, iPhones, and the upside of a recession. With chapters like, 'When One Door Closes, It's Usually on My Foot' and '12-Step Program for Buffet Addicts', she will have you laughing your socks off. She also writes touching pieces about the things she misses -- land lines, in-store coffee shops, hand-written letters, dressing up, her parents -- and the one thing that grounds her: her faith in God. Laugh along with Martha as she reminds you of what is truly important and turns the normal stuff of life -- after fifty -- into riotous fun.
