“The first thing I do when I come home is check the refrigerator for cats because I'm convinced that if one dies, my husband will hide it in there because I don't cook and so I won't see it. I do drink Cokes, though ,so technically he should hide the corpse in the oven. And now I need to start checking the oven.” IfsNeedsShouldFirstsHomeDiesDrinkHusbandCatConvincedChecksCooksMy HusbandComing HomeCorpsesCokeRefrigeratorsOvens Author:Jenny Lawson

“I suppose there is something in all of us that harks back to the soil. When you come to think of it, what are picnics but outcroppings of instinct? No one really enjoys them or expects to enjoy them, but with the first warm days some prehistoric instinct takes us out into the woods, to fry potatoes over a strangling wood fire or spend the next week getting grass stains out of our clothes. It must be instinct; every atom of intelligence warns us to stay at home near the refrigerator.” ThinkingFirstsHomeNextEnjoyFireWeekClothesInstinctWoodsWarmGrassSoilAtomsPotatoesStainsNext WeekRefrigeratorsStay At HomePicnicsPrehistoricStrangling Book:Tish: The Chronicle of Her Escapades and Excursions Source: Tish: The Chronicle of Her Escapades and Excursions
