Funny and moving, "Definitely Not Martha Stewart" is one woman's story about starting over after 20 years of marriage. With wry humor and down-to-earth candor, author Janice Wells struggles through the real world of little money and no time or desire to take care of necessary tasks like fluting mushroom caps and monogramming a door mat. From the realities of moving ("I finally found my martini glass, wrapped in swaddling underwear and lying in a roaster") to household tips ("to loosen a rusty bolt, soak a rag in Coke, wrap it around the bolt, add the rest to a couple of ounces of rum, drink slowly, then try the bolt") to frank confessions ("thinking about how long it's been since you cleaned the tub can take the joy right out of a bubble bath"), "Definitely Not Martha Stewart" strikes a chord with non-Martha Stewart types everywhere.
