Mennonite in a Little Black Dress / Rhoda Janzen 243 p.

I don't read many memoirs, but my neighbor insisted that I read this one. It was definitely funny, and we could probably do a companion presentation with the Gallery of Regrettable Food - Janzen recollects many icky and embarrassing packed school lunches made by her thrifty mother. This was fast and interesting, but I was a little disappointed that Janzen spent so much time making fun of her parents, who frankly sound like some of the nicest people I've never met.
