Miz B and Teaser Tuesdays asks you to:- Grab your current read.
- Let the book fall open to a random page.
- Share with us two (2) sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
- You also need to share the title of the book that you’re getting your “teaser” from … that way people can have some great book recommendations if they like the teaser you’ve given!

Today’s teaser comes from page 225 of Stacy Parker Aab’s Government Girl: Young and Female in the White House.
“Bimbo eruptions,” that’s what Betsey Wright, the longtime staff mother to Bill Clinton, called the pattern of hairsprayed women standing before clustered microphones and announcing to the lights and the black glass eyes that yes, the President came on to me.

I’m reposting, because I just realized I was back in January! (Same “Shack” book, though…) And I want to read the “Freakanomics” book, too.
I’m reading both a fiction and a non-fiction book, but the non-fiction is close at hand while the fiction (“206 Bones” by Kathy Reichs — very good, by the way!) is a floor away.
I’m on a quest to get healthier, and so am reading a book about healthy eating and a healthy lifestyle, “The MindBody FX Lifestyle,” by Melonie Dodaro. It includes all kinds of interesting info, including an easy to follow nutrition plan.
Here’s my teaser: “Everyone you meet claims to be concerned about health and weight, but few seem to make positive changes. Why? I’ve seen this problem reach frightening levels…because we focus solely on eating healthy and exercising to achieve our ideal weight. While both those things are important components to a healthy lifestyle, if your mind’s not on board, you’re wiring yourself to keep falling into that hole.”
