Does your mother-in-law still buy your husband underwear? Show up at your home unannounced? Do you keep hoping that aliens will kidnap her? If so, you must have M.I.L.D.E.W.! M.I.L.D.E.W., the playful acronym for Mothers-in-Law Do Everything Wrong, has allowed authors Liz Bluper and Renee Plastique to conduct covert conversations about their M.I.L.D.E.W.s for the last decade — without drawing the ire of their husbands. As humorous stories accumulated over the years, they began to broaden their M.I.L.D.E.W. storytelling circle. Soon, that circle spanned the globe, resulting in the first-ever truly fun humor book on mothers-in-law. From the all-too-revealing quiz to the laugh-out-loud stories to the Hey, that really might work strategies, this book gives new meaning to the word M.I.L.D.E.W. M.I.L.D.E.W. gave me a Thigh Master for Christmas one year. —Margot, Connecticut When I was pregnant with my first child, a son, M.I.L.D.E.W. wanted us to name him after her husband, Ken. My husband and I, however, decided to name our son Jacob. M.I.L.D.E.W. refused to accept this, and proceeded to call our son Ken. What's up with that? —Gretchen, Maine Running the gamut from famous M.I.L.D.E.W. — such as the queen of England — to everyday M.I.L.D.E.W.s just like yours, this witty insightful book transcends age, gender, culture, geography and time. The hysterical tales of holiday chaos, helpful child-rearing advice, pre-wedding moments of horror and M.I.L.D.E.W. gift-giving gone awry will keep you laughing and dying to share it with your friends.
