Your audience will be rolling down the aisles and howling with laughter as you serve them up another order of purely funny jokes - extra spicy, of course! Author Bio: Lisa DeMarco grew up in a family reputed to be the "chattiest" people from New Jersey all the way down to the eastern coast of Florida. Her love of storytelling takes a break when she is busy working on her next collection of jokes and humorous writings. A waitress for over twenty years, Lisa can be found in her pink high-tops dishing some good eats and funny jokes at Haystax Restaurant. She lives with her husband, Joey, and two daughters, Amanda Jeane and Makenzie Rae, in Tavares, Florida.

Giggles, giggles, and more giggles! Is there such a thing as too much laughter? “NO!” says author Lisa DeMarco, aka America’s Funniest Waitress. A transplant to the Sunshine State, this native Jersey girl prides herself on being able to make total strangers laugh out loud. She believes it is her mission in life to feed the world, while also serving up their daily dose of funnies. Serving Up Some Funny House Specials is her latest ray of tasty delights, plucked from her enormous private stash of jokes. This is her third book in the Serving Up Some Funny series, which includes Adult Menu and Leftovers. House Specials is a tribute to the fabulous men and women who shared their spicy, sassy, tasteless tales with her while she served her 30-plus-year sentence in the hospitality industry. She feels privileged to have met all these kind folks she labeled her “jokesters.” Sadly, most of them have since passed away. “What better way could I honor their memories than to serve up their original, blue-plate special for the world to enjoy? Generations of pure, light-hearted laughter are just waiting to fill your soul. And that’s what it’s all about, isn’t it?” For more jokes, visit Lisa at www.laughswithlisa.com or visit her weekly at www.thevillagesnews.com.
