Do you have any idea how hard it’s been for me to keep this a secret?? I mean, I am amazing with secrets about real-life-super-important stuff but THIS. Is. Too. Much. I have wanted to just blab it and blab it and blab it.
But I haven’t.
I have waited.
I have been patient. And now I get to tell you. But first, I need a few more lines of text so that all you people on Facebook can’t CHEAT and just read the first few lines and see the title. Nope. I’m gonna make you click a link. Don’t be lazy. It’s just one click for crying out loud.
That should do it.
DRUMROLL PLEASE… (BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!! I don’t know how to type how a drumroll sounds. Obvs.)
Ketchup Is A Vegetable And Other Lies Moms Tell Themselves
BOOM! Fireworks! YAAAAAAAY! Who’s excited?! THIS GIRL!
If you read the blog or my columns, you can expect more stories about motherhood, my family and a little about faith– but also, y’all– I talk about lady bits A LOT. It’s sort of Robin Gone WILD and it’s less censored than anything else I’ve ever published either online or in print.
Which may explain why I have been stress eating chocolate and breathing into a brown paper bag seven to twelve times a day– it’s more me. I was trying to explain to Rachel Hawkins, a writer friend who had been there, done that, how I felt and she said, “Yes! You feel like you are about to be IN YOUR PANTIES ON THE INTERNETS!” And I was like, “Yes! THAT exactly!”
Because I am going to be naked in front of y’all. (Lord, I can’t wait to see the spammers I get out of this post.) I’m showing you more of who I am, exposing more of my weaknesses and making a lot of jokes about genitals. Hey– you have kids and you have to talk about body parts a lot. Like a lot, a lot. (A lot. Prepare yourselves.)
I’m excited and I’m scared and that’s the truth. I was telling Zeb how I felt and he said, “Well, just remember– I’ve seen you naked before and I like it a lot.”
The book is funny so unlike if you were to ever ACTUALLY see me nekkid? Pointing and laughing is highly recommended.
Release date is scheduled for November 12, 2011. Check back for more updates.
I’m so excited for you that I can’t hardly stand it!!!!!! This is going to be so awesome! Heading over to fb to spread the good news!
I can’t wait to see you naked!!!!!!
Atta girl Nat! You made me snort!
LOL!
I’ve been waiting for this book forever! Even when it was just you sharing funny stories on Facebook. SO glad you’ve developed a blog and a book. I’m not even a mother yet, but I laugh until my stomach hurts. Or as I blow snot bubbles. Or both.
I love you ppk!
So happy for you. Counting down the days until I can buy a bazillion! Love you!
Can’t wait to read it and have my own autographed copy! I know it’s GREAT!

Oh my golly! I can’t believe no one else has this title! It rocks. Score!
Thanks and I KNOW RIGHT??? I came up with it a year ago after coming up with 100 really crappy ones and I have kept it a secret for A WHOLE YEAR! I was about to explode. I can not WAIT to show y’all my cover. I LOVE IT!
So excited! Can’t wait to find it on Amazon, buy it, read it, then write a gushing review where I just “happen” to mention that I know you personally. *sigh* I just love having things to look forward to. 😉
