Lynne Vu lives in southern California with her husband, two daughters, a dog, fish, and various other creatures, depending on the day.

My mother was the smartest woman ever. You may disagree. You may even come up with a few names of exceptionally smart women since the dawn of time. But I’m telling you, she was it. She had an opinion on everything- sharp, funny, silly, and yes…. downright annoyi ... Read more...
