Tell Me When It Drops
Everybody needs a LaLa.
LaLa is the woman people call.
Not because she claims to know everything. Because nothing intimidates her enough to keep her from figuring it out.
She is the person who brings the food, shows up with the wrench, remembers your birthday and stays until the problem is solved.
And if she teaches you something once, she expects you to know it next time.
The woman behind everything she knows.
Opinions, stories, rules and the things mothers and grandmothers used to teach.
LaLa Says
Opinions, freely given, rarely wrong.
Things LaLa Won't Waste Money On
The list is longer than you'd think.
Things Worth Paying For
Buy it once. Cry once.
What My Mother Taught Me
Some of it took forty years to appreciate.
LaLa's Rules
Non-negotiable, mostly reasonable.
Things Every Woman Should Know
Starting with where the water shutoff is.
