It can’t get any more real than this. Megan Dolan is a powerhouse storyteller, a veritable “Desperate Housewife” coming to terms with own fears and anxieties in the most practical and careful ways, through vivid, lively writing that strikes a beautiful, emotional balance between past and present. Highly Recommended. —Tracey Paleo (Gia on the Move)

“My two year old daughter is repeatedly throwing herself on the kitchen floor screaming SNACK! My four year old son refuses to get dressed.” Megan Dolan is having a hard day. She seeks solace in her Vitamix, tracing her smoothie addiction back to the comfort foods of her youth. Lorna Doones, blueberry donuts, and Helen Grace chocolates got her through the pivotal year when her mom joined a cult, her dad joined the dating pool, and her world fell apart. In this hilarious, moving story about domestic life, divorce, and blended families, Dolan poses the question — How do you parent your kids and yourself at the same time?
