"I'm not old," quips Marjie Zacks, "I'm experienced."

With the same inimitable wit found in her first book, It All Ends Up in a Parfait Glass, Marjie takes readers for a romp down memory lane and into the joys and absurdities of her "young senior" years. Marjie tells tales on herself that will have readers laughing one minute and tearing up the next. She examines questions like:

  • Why can't we see or hear as well when we wear a medical mask?

  • If your late mother's clothes have been in the closet long enough to "have had their own bat mitzvah," is it time to clear them out?

  • What does it mean when a centenarian friend says, "I don't buy green bananas"?

Above all, Marjie believes that, regardless of our age, "We are all still three-year-olds in larger clothing, with all the same joys and potential to play." Yes, aging has its challenges, but as a 106-year-old friend once said to her, "What's the alternity?"
