Meet two sisters who fight rural boredom by washing Budweiser cans and cutting them to pieces to make clothing. Learn why the word snow sends any right-thinking Southerner careening to the Food Lion for extra loaves of bread and little else. Humor columnist and slightly crazed belle-by-birth Celia Rivenbark tackles these and other lard-laden subjects in Bless Your Heart, Tramp, a no-holds-barred look at all things sassy, sensational, and southern. 215994 2000 Bless Your Heart, Tramp: And Other Southern Endearments total:307|5:84|4:102|3:93|2:25|1:3| 307 1160 557 51 4 0 false false Mon May 04 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri May 01 11:14:23 -0700 2009 Fri May 08 10:13:57 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Mon Jul 27 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 03 20:15:10 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 27 11:36:21 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sat Jan 24 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 02 17:13:41 -0800 2009 Sat Jan 24 19:30:01 -0800 2009 All three are funny and very, very easy to read...more...]]> 2 1 false false Sat May 02 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu May 07 17:13:12 -0700 2009 Thu May 07 17:17:21 -0700 2009 Bless Your Heart, Tramp, but unfortunately, they were too short. In this, Rivenbark's writing felt choppy and disconnected, making her first book the least enjoyable for me, despite the ready humor. (I enjoyed two others by her much, much more.)

She's far more Southern than I am, but most of what she says I can relate to from being in the South for so long.
