Author Hallie Ephron recommends literature to keep you laughing.

4. 'If Life Is a Bowl of Cherries, What Am I Doing in the Pits?' by Erma Bombeck

Bombeck鈥檚 observations on the foibles of family life are like the jab of a sibling鈥檚 elbow in the ribs 鈥 ultimately delivered with affection. This wife and mother has a humorous take on American domesticity in the 60鈥檚 and 70鈥檚 that is only a little dated. Anyone who has seen an episode of Brady Bunch will have enough context to laugh along with Bombeck.
