sarcastic: adjective - Contemptuous or ironic in manner or wit.
mom (mother): noun - a stringy, mucilaginous substance consisting of various bacteria, esp. Mycoderma aceti, that forms on the surface of a fermenting liquid and causes fermentation when added to other liquids, as in changing wine or cider to vinegar. Also called mother of vinegar.
Hmmm. Gross! I never knew that was a definition of “mother” until today. It doesn’t really describe Lotus Carroll, aka Sarcastic Mom , the next mom writer to grace the pages of Quirkee.com in the new column, From the Mouths of Babes. Lotus is far from being a mucilaginous substance but she is definitely sarcastic and a mom. She currently resides in Nashville but insists she will come back to Austin someday if Quirkee makes millions and we buy her a second home here.
She’s a perfect fit for the magazine and we are honored to have her on the team! Come by her debut article and welcome her to the wackiness that we call Quirkee.com!
Next week: Donna Chafin-Medica (aka dKaye) will be closing out the first round. Get your popcorn ready!

Lotus is (because there is no other way to try to explain or describe her, the words just don’t exist) amazing.
