The Undomestic Goddess 精彩片段:

第二十三章

到第二天中午前什么都没发生。

我像往常一样给崔施和艾格做早饭。我像往常一样打扫。然后我穿上艾里斯的围裙,到剁肉板那边准备榨橙汁。我准备为明天的慈善午餐会做可可浆和橙味松饼。我们准备把它放在准确计算数字的橙瓣旁边,而且每个碟子上都会有从圣诞装饰手册上买来的真正的银帛天使做装饰。

这是崔施的主意。另外还有天花板上挂的天使。

“进展的怎么样了?”崔施慌张地走进厨房。“你做松饼了么?”

“还没有,”我捏着橙子说。“盖格夫人,不用担心。一切都在计划之中。”

“你知道前几天我经历了什么么?”她抓着头。“有越来越多的人加入进来。我不得不改变座位计划…”

“不会有事的。”我安慰地说。“放松一些。”

“是的。”她叹口气,用两根涂着指甲油的手指夹住头。“你说的对。我要去检查一下袋子…”

我不敢相信崔施为这次午餐会花了多少钱。每次我问她我们真的需要在客厅用白色丝绸吊顶或者给每个客人一个淡紫色纽扣孔,她就会尖叫“这都是为了慈善!”

这个提醒了我一直想问她的事情。

“哦…盖格夫人,你向客人收门票费么?”

“哦,不!”她所。“我觉得那太俗气了,你不认为么?”

“你准备抽彩购物么?”

“不 .”她皱起鼻子。“人们讨厌抽彩购物。”

作品简介:

Book Description

The Undomestic Goddess is a genuinely funny, sweet book. Kinsella is a comic whiz who consistently delivers what her readers crave: a good read with lots of laughs.

 ——Miami Herald

Workaholic attorney Samantha Sweeting has just done the unthinkable. She's made a mistake so huge, it'll wreck any chance of a partnership.

Going into utter meltdown, she walks out of her London office, gets on a train, and ends up in the middle of nowhere. Asking for directions at a big, beautiful house, she's mistaken for an interviewee and finds herself being offered a job as housekeeper.

Her employers have no idea they've hired a lawyer - and Samantha has no idea how to work the oven. She can't sew on a button, bake a patato, or get the #@%# ironing board to open. How she takes a deep breath and begins to cope - and finds love - is a story as delicious as the bread she learns to bake.

But will her old life ever catch up with her? And if it does...will she want it back?

A light-as-Tofutti novel you'll devour.

——Glamour
