<p>Alexis Stewart, daughter of domestic diva Martha Stewart says her book <em><a title="Alexis Stewart Bashes Mommy Martha In New Book" href="http://www.inquisitr.com/147480/alexis-stewart-bashes-mommy-martha-in-new-book/">Whateverland: Learning to Live Here</a> </em>only pokes fun at her mom for the sake of being funny.</p>
<p>The 46-year-old sat down with Today.com on Tuesday and she says that the claim about how there was &#8220;never any food in the house&#8221; was &#8220;suppose to be funny.&#8221;</p>
<p>In her book Alexis writes:</p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8220;If I didn&#8217;t do something perfectly, I had to do it again&#8230; I grew up with a glue gun pointed at my head.&#8221;</span></p></blockquote>
<p>According to Alexis:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The book is supposed to be funny and everyone can make funny stories up about their families.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8216;There were no glue guns&#8230; I wish there had been, it would have been more fun&#8230; She worked hard and was a perfectionist  and I don&#8217;t have a problem with that.&#8217;</p></blockquote>
<p>When asked if the book played off her mothers domestic image and showed that she isn&#8217;t what she portrays Alexis responded:</p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8216;Not at all &#8230; I think that fact is&#8230;First of all it&#8217;s not a book about my mother. It&#8217;s about growing up, what happened or didn&#8217;t happen and being comfortable with all that.&#8217; She went on to insist that their was &#8220;no dirt.&#8221;</span></p></blockquote>
<p><span>When asked to explain her books comments that there was never any prepared food in the house and instead only ingredients which weren&#8217;t accessible for a child Alexis says:</span></p>
<blockquote><p><span>&#8216;Well, a little bit, my mother was a caterer and she worked very hard, we were not wealthy&#8230; and so there were ingredients.</span></p>
<p><span>&#8216;Was it annoying? Yeah. Did I get to go to my friends&#8217; houses and eat junk food? Sure. And I&#8217;m a great cook. And, guess what? There&#8217;s no prepared food in my house.&#8217;</span></p></blockquote>
<p>Last week <a title="Martha Stewart Throws Elegant Birthday Party In Maine" href="http://www.inquisitr.com/132253/martha-stewart-throws-elegant-birthday-party-in-maine/">Martha</a> herself called the book &#8220;hilarious&#8221; and &#8220;enlightening.&#8221;</p>
<p>Sounds to me like Martha threatened to get her old friends from the &#8220;yard&#8221; to set the story straight if Alexis didn&#8217;t do it first.</p>
<p>Would it surprise you to learn that Martha Stewart isn&#8217;t the happy domestic diva she portrays herself as.</p>

<p>In what we presume is a scientific &#8220;breakthrough&#8221; there is a book for sale on <a href="http://www.amazon.com/How-Good-Bye-Depression-Constrict-Everyday/dp/0595094724/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;s=books&#038;qid=1227586927&#038;sr=8-1">Amazon</a> called: How to Good-Bye Depression: If You Constrict Anus 100 Times Everyday. Malarkey? or Effective Way? (Paperback).  It goes for the rock bottom (boom tish) price of $15.25.</p>
<p>The product description is gold:</p>
<blockquote><p>I think constricting anus 100 times and denting navel 100 times in succession everyday is effective to good-bye depression and take back youth. You can do so at a boring meeting or in a subway. I have known 70-year-old man who has practiced it for 20 years. As a result, he has good complexion and has grown 20 years younger. His eyes sparkle. He is full of vigor, happiness and joy. He has neither complained nor born a grudge under any circumstance. Furthermore, he can make love three times in succession without drawing out.</p>
<p>In addition, he also can have burned a strong beautiful fire within his abdomen. It can burn out the dirty stickiness of his body, release his immaterial fiber or third attention which has been confined to his stickiness. Then, he can shoot out his immaterial fiber or third attention to an object, concentrate on it and attain happy lucky feeling through the success of concentration.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t know concentration which gives you peculiar pleasure, your life looks like a hell.</p></blockquote>
<p>Not surprisingly they have plenty in stock.  Check out the other recommended reads which include How to survive a robot uprising &#8211; tips for you to defend yourself against the upcoming rebellion and Real Power, the official ninja guide.</p>
