HOW (NOT) TO BE A DOMESTIC GODDESS by Deborah Ross


Award winning columnist, Deborah Ross, has a club, and I desperately want to be a member.
She calls her organization the NDGC (GB)… that is the Non-Domestic Goddess Club of Great Britain.







Assuming that you can get motivated enough to attend a meeting (a true Non-Domestic Goddess will shiver at this point at the thought of a meeting), you will be welcomed with a cup of Nescafe’ made from tap water and a store bought cake (if anyone bothered to buy one).






Fortunately for U.S. readers, Ms. Ross’ delightful anti-Martha Stewart approach to home making has crossed the shores and is now available:






How Not to be a Domestic Goddess: ...always go to bed on an argument






One could say that the Non-Domestic Goddess motto is encompassed in one simple statement, “Nature abhors a vacuum and so do we.”






Hey, I’m all for that! And apparently there are plenty of other women who agree.









I brought my copy of How not to be a Domestic Goddess to the doctor’s waiting room and had to fight my way out of a horde of Non-Domestic Goddess wannabes trying to pry the book from my hands.






Well, okay that really didn’t happen.






No one who aspires to be a true Non-Domestic Goddess would dare to make such a concentrated effort to obtain a “How To’ book on anything…






But, the office nurse thought the title was funny and told me so.






And I agreed with her.









The title is great and the book is even better.






ENJOY!
