“GIRLFRIEND’S GUIDE” FOR THE SCHOOL YEARS

THE WHITE TRASH MOM HANDBOOK focuses on the unwritten but important rules for the elementary and secondary school years.  The book dishes out good advice with irreverence and humor.  A few examples:

“The Fake Purse Escape” - Tips for Working Moms
Want to leave the office early to pick up the kids? One of Lamar's tips for working moms is to buy an extra purse to keep at the office for days when family duty calls before 5pm. She advises leaving the fake purse on the desk and keeping your desk light on so the office tattle tales will think you are still at the office. Read just one of the many tips for mixing work and motherhood from Chapter 3, "Every Mother is a Working Mother".

"Fashion Tips for Staying Under the Radar"
Artsy moms don't get asked to chair committees.  Read some of White Trash Mom's tips for staying under the volunteer radar by dressing like a "creative" person.  The book gives detailed and very specific ways you can reduce the amount of times you have to say NO to volunteer requests...simply by changing a few accessories.

“Faking It for the Bake Sale” - Short Cuts for the School Bake Sale
As unfair as it may seem, the treats you bring to the school bake sale reflect on your child, not you. Home-baked goodies reign supreme, so Lamar gives you tips for how to make store-bought treats look homemade, if you can’t do the real thing.  The book gives step-by-step instructions for how to make store bought cookies, cakes and brownies look like you just got 'em out of the oven.

The Muffia are the enemy.  The evil Muffia mothers are examined in great detail in THE WHITE TRASH MOM HANDBOOK.  But one of the skills you will take away after reading the book is an ability to translate "muffia" speak.
