Your House Is Usually a Disaster Area

你家里通常乱七八糟

The next time you entertain, don't pretend that your place always looks perfect.

下次聚会时,别装作你家里一直这么完美。

It's as annoying as a stick-thin model saying she eats like a horse.

就象一个瘦得跟竹竿似的模特,说她的食量大得象匹马,这很令人恼火。

If someone compliments your home,be honest and say, "I've spent the last two days cleaning up. You have no idea what was behind this sideboard."

假如有人恭维你家,你就老老实实地说:“我花了两天洗洗刷刷。你根本想象不到柜子里有多乱。”

It's impossible to keep it together at all times. Wouldn’t you rather be friends with someone who owns up to her imperfections? I know I would.

不可能一直保持井井有条。难道你不愿意和一个坦承自己不完美的人交朋友吗?我想我是愿意的。
