Description
Turkey, the Smoke Alarm and Aunt Lou’s Wig | by J. J. Jonas
A first-time Thanksgiving host confronts a frozen turkey, cement-like potatoes, crunchy yams, an eccentric family, and a smoke alarm with excellent timing. The disastrous feast succeeds because everyone pitches in, laughs, and loves her through the mess.
Twelve Thirty-Four | by J. J. Jonas
During the family’s first Christmas after a father’s death, a child notices 12:34 glowing on a clock and calls the ascending numbers a beginning. That minute becomes a lasting ritual through which four women remind one another to reset, continue, and carry their grief together.
