You Have Lipstick On Your Teeth!

Did you just go check your teeth in the mirror?  Did you??

We would LOVE to think we have that much power, but if you are anything like us, you would’ve gotten halfway to the mirror, gotten distracted by a pile of shoes, put the shoes away, hauled out the vacuum, done a load of laundry, fed the kids and then realized, “Oh yeah, I don’t wear lipstick in the summer time.”

This is more like our summertime jam . . .

Summer Time

But the real point is, we are the type of gals who would TOTALLY tell you if your pearly whites were smudged and we surround ourselves with women who would do the same . . . even online.

Actually, the real point is,

WE ARE CONTRIBUTORS TO A BOOK!

THIS BOOK TO BE EXACT!

You Have Lipstick On Your Teeth

We know you are excited so we will interrupt this blog post right now to show you how you can buy it! Just click it. Click it real good.
“You Have Lipstick on Your Teeth” and Other Things You’ll Only Hear from Your Friends In The Powder Room

Oh, you want to know why you should buy the book? You need more than, “Because we said so?” Well, here is a little teaser taste, a tapas, if you will.

Enjoy this little morsel from our essay.

Is Forty Fabulous?

If forty is really so fabulous, then why do people keep spoon feeding us with the force of a front end loader the notion that “Forty is the New Thirty”? Stop throwing us in the deep end of the fountain of youth. We are comfortable in our Spanx encased skins and we want to be toasted with soy lattes for the wisdom we have gained and the goals we have achieved, not the size of our pores.

And this one from Tracy at Momaical will make you laugh out loud!

The Gym: A Place Where Muscles and Gag Reflexes Go To Workout

On the tour of your new gym facility you are shown the pool, spa, sauna, workout and yoga rooms. What they fail to give you is a warning about the WOMEN who frequent the locker room. Some of the things you see there will shock, horrify, astound and amuse you. It’s not for the weak of heart. Or stomach.

And we can all relate to this one from The Underachiever’s Guide to Being a Domestic Goddess.

Going Off the Deep End: A Tale of Swimsuits Gone Wrong

They say what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger – and the stories of my bathing suits from summers’ past are no exception to the rule. If people have skeletons in their closet, mine are wearing swimwear – just hanging there as a reminder of the horrors I endured from poor choices, wrong sizes, and unsuitable designs for my body type.

What? You want more? Well, that is going to require a little clickity click to get the book! We can’t reveal it all here. Leslie from the The Bearded Iris, Keesha from Mom’s New Stage, Kim from Let Me Start By Saying, Rebecca from Frugalista Blog, Anna from Random Handprints, Meredith from The Mom of the Year, Suzanne from Toulouse and Tonic, Abby from Abby Has Issues, Robyn from Hollow Tree Ventures, Kerry from House TalkN, Bethany from Bad Parenting Moments, Allison from Motherhood WTF, Stephanie from Binkies and Briefcases, Kim from The Fordeville Diaries, Janel from 649.133: Girls, the Care and Raising Of., Lori from Loripalooza, Noa from Oh Noa., Deborah from Mannahattamamma, Lady Estrogen, Amy from Funny is Family, Angela Shelton, and many more would be sooooo mad with us! They might even let us walk around with spinach stuck between our teeth.

There will be giveaways and other fun things coming up. Until that time, thank your lucky stars for girlfriends and shared visits to powder rooms. And keep it classy . . . like us.

    Congratulations! I was going to buy in anyway because one of my favourite people, Mere Smith, is also in it, but now there’s extra incentive, as I enjoy your blog very much.

    Read and reviewed the book on the Wonder Woman’s web site, the amazon something .com

    I loved it and yet I’m a dude, for the most part. You guys were great.

    BTW, thank you for thinking of me at the Blog Her and sending a picture over the Twitter. I’m going to be at Type A in Atlanta.I wish y’all could be there too.

    Hugs

      THANK YOU for reviewing the book! Going over to check it out now.
      You have been a great bloggy friend and it would be amazing to meet you IRL, but I think BlogHer was our conference budget for this year. Maybe someday soon. You are on our minds though as you could tell from the Twitter pic. 🙂 However, I have to give credit where credit is due with that picture. Pretty sure Linda, Mel, and Michelle started it. We just know a good idea when we hear/see one. Ellen
