Mama Makes Up Her Mind: and Other Dangers of Southern Living

by Bailey White

Every day life may never seem every day again.  Life in Southern Florida with Mama is never every day stuff.  When Bailey’s father, through his fourth wife, leaves them his 1958 Porsche, in original condition, Mama wants to put it out to pasture with the tractors and lawnmowers.  Instead, she takes the screen off the back porch and parks it there, never to be moved again.

When Mama isn’t feeling well and Bailey convinces her to go to the Instant Care Facility to see the Doctor.  Mama was really impressed with the curb side service and easy remedy.  What Bailey didn’t know was that it was the three butchers from the grocery store who gave Mama the advice.

Then there are other family members that add to the mix, like Aunt Belle, who tames an alligator by giving it dead chickens for treats.  When a cousins fiance’s family is coming for Thanksgiving, Bailey and her sister try to rid the house of stuff, but Mama is not overly willing to have her house cleared out.  Mama Makes Up Her Mind keeps the smiles coming as you read about this family’s southern living.
