ode to jo(e)

ok, i really love jo(e).
i love her Smashing Pseudonyms, her fabulously descriptive vignettes of family-and-friends, and her latest trip to Paris... and i am in awe of her ability to w-r-i-t-e.
jo(e)'s is the blog i go to when i feel like reading a little story... and i even featured there once.
jo(e)'s teenagers rock, really rock. they're creative on so many levels, and as a bleating mummy who hates rosters but loves kids-who-clean-up-after-themselves-and-others, i am in absolute hysterics reading the latest shenanigans in jo(e)'s kitchen...
