Joys of Engrish | Steve Caires

1. Having a blast in London! Here‘s the floating bookstore Word on the Water. Maybe 10 people can fit in there at one time.
2. Took the Uber boat down the Thames, really fun.
3. Wicked was amazing! That‘s a ginormous dragon above the stage. Also saw John Lithgow in Giant last nite.
4. Went to changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace but couldn‘t see anything.
5. Bears Bar, hopping all week. Game on Sunday.

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

All I Know about Animal Behavior I Learned in Loehmann's Dressing Room | Erma Bombeck

pick

I get Erma Bombeck's humor more now 😁 This was a great nostalgic read bringing me back to my 20s and earlier; fun!

dabbe She is one of our state's treasures! I remember that Loehmann dressing room too well! 😂 3mo

TheBookgeekFrau @dabbe 😂😂 I have a vague memory of going into a Loehmann's communal dressing room once with my mother and grandmother. I think I made a comment about someone's girdle, but that's all I remember about it. 3mo

dabbe @TheBookgeekFrau It had a round ottoman type place in the middle so you could sit, but yeah, everybody got to see everybody! Girdle! 😂😂😂 3mo

TheBookgeekFrau @dabbe Yes!!😂 As for girdles--I was fascinated by my grandmother's; as well as her housecoats, and her slippers that had heels on them!! 🤣🤣 3mo

bthegood My mom used to read Erma Bombeck years ago so I started to read them - they are so funny! I haven't thought about her books in years - thanks for the reminder of some good reading and memories with my mom! 3mo

Leftcoastzen That‘s cool ! 3mo

TheBookgeekFrau @bthegood I love that! You're welcome🥰 I used to love to read her column in the newspaper. Granted I was way too young to really appreciate her humor then, but she sounded just like my mother! (edited) 3mo

MidnightBookGirl My mom had tons of her books and I read them all the time as a kid, lol. 3mo

TheBookgeekFrau @MidnightBookGirl My mother had a few, too! But for some reason I preferred reading her in the newspaper. Maybe it made me feel more grown up 😄 3mo

JanuarieTimewalker13 Love Erma Bombeck! 3mo

TheBookgeekFrau @JanuarieTimewalker13 Me too! 3mo

bookandbedandtea I haven't thought about Erma in decades but I'm going to find some of her books now!! Like others have mentioned, my mom had her books. I also remember reading her in The Readers Digest. (Wonder if that's still a thing 🤔) I read them and they made me laugh like crazy but realize now I was too young for true appreciation. 3mo

TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea It's funny, while I get her on a whole different level now, I still find myself laughing because she sounds like my mom. I'm also enjoying the nostalgia of the world of my youth. And of course, some things are some timeless it's amazing. Definitely worth looking for her books! 3mo

How to Be a Canadian | Will Ferguson, Ian Ferguson

pick

This entertaining, humorous book gently roasts Canadians. There are references in it that I‘m sure I would have understood better were I actually Canadian, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
