In "There's a Witch in My Room," the author laments that during her formative teenaged years she had to share her bedroom with her eighty- year-old grouchy Oma. "The Bachelor" tells the story of the family's beloved confirmed bachelor who falls in love at sixty-nine with a nineteen-year-old niece of his cousin and disrupts many lives. "What Do You Think?" is a humorous account of working in an exclusive boutique shop when an odd couple comes to shop. "Ali, Nai Nai, Susie" reports the loving and sometimes grueling trip in China that Helga and her daughter, Susie, made to bring the newly-adopted Ali to Sarasota. "The Glorious Fish" is a fun piece following Helga, the New York fashion designer, and her boss to an exclusive restaurant where, unbeknownst to her, all eyes are transfixed while she dissects and eats a whole fish ... head ... tail ... eyes ... at the table.
