By the time I post this, I’ve probably shared this story that I find incredibly funny (but probably doesn’t make anyone else laugh besides my family) one too many times. We were cleaning up from dinner on an otherwise normal evening: Mom was folding laundry, Dad was chopping rhubarb and I was doing the dishes with my sister. My Mom wished to share that Stratford has decided to make a map outlining places where a certain teen sensation has been. But when she said his name, it came out “Justin BeibLer”…and we all had to smirk. My childhood hero was a woman from a home improvement show named Joanne Leibler- and my Mom just decided to mesh the pop star and the hammer-swinging handy-woman into one name! Too funny. Just goes to show how involved our family is with “who’s who”…
