Bless Your Heart, Tramp: And Other Southern Endearments

Step into the wacky world of “womanless wedding” fund-raisers, in which Bubbas wear boas. Meet two sisters who fight rural boredom by washing Budweiser cans and cutting them into 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.

What’s the Southern woman’s take on Wonderbras, fried turkeys and ‘tater guns, Barbie and Ken (tip: she’s a ho), politicians (tip: they’re all hos) and marital success (if you can’t agree on a perfect pizza ratio, y’all are doomed)?

Humor columnist and slightly crazed belle-by-birth Celia Rivenbark tackles these and other lard-laden subjects in Bless Your Heart, Tramp, a hilarious look at Southern – and just plain human – foibles, up-close and personal.

So pour yourself a glass of sweet tea and curl up on the pie-azza with Bless Your Heart, Tramp.

If you’re a Southerner, you’ll understand. If you’re not – well, God help you.

Great for a quick read & an easy laugh, 2008-08-05
The first of the three sections was the best... I read the whole thing of course, but I even had my mother in law and sister in law read the story of the Amish Friendship Bread and When Husbands Get Sick. They laughed. Good book, was totally worth the $5 I spent. Probably wouldn't pay full price though.

Bless Your Heart, 2008-06-03

I like this book. It's funny and very entertaining. Some of these situations are familar.
Also I like the fact that if I have to put it down I can come back to it when I get the time and I don't have to go back and reread the pages before.
I can also use some of these sayins and information and not only have an answer but a little private joke as to where it came from.

Great southern humor, 2007-09-01
I bought this book as a gift for a friend my age. After I had received the book myself as a gift, I knew she could relate to many of the stories in the book and would enjoy as much as I. It is typical of life in the south for people of middle age. Most enjoyable!

You gotta love Celia!, 2007-06-27
If you are from "The South" you will nod as you laugh until tears dilute your bowl of grits while you read this classic. If you are not from "The South" (bless your heart) you will still be captivated by Celia's hilarious view of life south of the Mason-Dixon Line. Everyone will love this one.
