Chapter 1

The Tropicana Orange

My mother has the tenacity of a bulldog, looks like June Cleaver, and curses like a truck driver. She grew up the daughter of two alcoholic parents in the projects of New­ark, New Jersey. She learned, by necessity, how to stretch a dollar bill around the block and is one of the most resourceful and industrious people you could ever meet. She once told me she rarely felt valued, loved, or beautiful, but she held tight to the promise she made to herself that, once she was old enough, she d find a way to a better life.

As a kid, I remember going through the Sunday paper together and cutting coupons. She taught me all the different ways to save money. She also taught me to pay close attention to the free stuff that brands would send you like recipe books or cooking utensils if you saved up and mailed in a proof of purchase.

One day I was walking home from school and heard the radio playing off in the distance. As I got closer, I realized the music was coming from above. I looked up and saw my mom perched on the roof of our two- story house. **Moooom! Is everything okay? What are you doing all the way up there?!

She yelled down, I m fine, Ree. The roof had a leak. When I called the roofer, he said it would be at least five hundred bucks, probably more. That s friggin nuts! I remembered seeing some extra asphalt in the garage and figured it would just take a few minutes to fix it up.

Another time, I came home from school and heard the radio buzzing from the back of the house. Mom was in the bathroom, surrounded by tools and exposed pipes. Dust particles filled the air. *Mom, what s going on?!

• Oh, I m just retiling the bathroom, she said. I saw a few cracks and didn t want it all to get moldy.

  You ve got to understand, my mom is high school educated and this was the 1980s. It was a pre-internet, pre-YouTube, pre-Google world. I never knew where I d find her or what she d be doing, but all I had to do was follow the…
