  21st Century Yokel

  21st-Century Yokel explores the way we can be tied inescapably to landscape, whether we like it or not, often through our family and our past. It's not quite a nature book, not quite a humour book, not quite a family memoir, not quite folklore, not quite social history, not quite a collection of essays, but a bit of all seven. It contains owls, badgers, ponies, beavers, otters, bats, bees, scarecrows, dogs, ghosts and yes, even a few cats. What emerges from this are themes that are broader, bigger and more definitive.

  Experience the wit & wisdom of one of the New York Times–bestselling author’s most popular columns about living life to its fullest. 
   
  Even after her death, Erma Bombeck remains one of America's best-loved writers of all time. Eat Less Cottage and More Ice Cream is based on one of her most requested columns. 
   
  In 1979, someone asked humorist Erma Bombeck, “If you had your life to live over, would you change anything?” Her immediate answer was no, but once she thought about it, she changed her mind. The result was a classic column full of Bombeck’s signature wit and warmth. 
   
  Now the beloved column that has hung on hundreds of refrigerator doors has been cheerily illustrated and designed as a handsome gift book, Eat Less Cottage and More Ice Cream. In it, Bombeck gently reminds us of what is really important in life: 
   
  “If I had my life to live over again, I would have waxed less and listened more.” 
   
  I would have cried and laughed less while watching television . . . and more while watching real life.” 
   
  But mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute of it . . . look at it and really see it . . . try it on . . . live it . . . exhaust it . . . and never give that minute back until there was nothing left of it . . . .” 
   
  Long-time fans and readers discovering Bombeck for the first time will both find something to love in this witty and charming book. Eat Less Cottage and More Ice Cream offers wisdom to inspire all of us.
