Good, Clean Fun: a Meh-rathon
A letter from Alicia Prescott to Sir Anthony Melvins (author of Tit for Tat, Tat for Tit, Tat’s all Folks, and Tit’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas):
A truly embarrassing thing unfolded in my apartment the other day. I was hosting a film director, one with an interest in adapting one of my novels for the screen. I had planned for us to have drinks and a snack and discuss the project (going out to a bar wouldn’t do; too noisy). When he arrived, he said, “You didn’t have to cook for me!” But I had not. It was merely the lingering smell of the roast I’d cooked two nights prior. It did not ruin the evening, but made for an awkward start. I must find a way to clean the air of my tiny kitchen. My career depends upon it.
What better day for a spring-cleaning-themed Meh-ration than March 12th, the birthday of author Alicia Prescott? Creator of the character Ms. Theroux, the mystery-solving maid who appears in over 40 novels, Prescott has come to be known as “the queen of clean” in literary circles. So, stick around all day as we share excerpts from Prescott’s work, as well as tidbits from her letters, interviews, reviews, and more. Oh, and there will be deals too. On cleaning products. And also non-cleaning products.
Meh-rathon
What’s a Meh-rathon?
Normally, Meh is all about one deal per day—simple. But sometimes, we throw that out the window. A Meh-rathon is an all-day gauntlet of nonstop deals. One after another, untill we run out of stuff (or patience). It's chaotic. It's fun. It's a terrible way to shop responsibly. You've been warned.
