Every once in a while you stumble across a blogger that makes you sit up and pay attention. When we first found Suburban Turmoil, we ended up spitting our coffee at the monitor as we laughed at her wit. We love Lucinda's ability to take the mundane and present it with panache. Day after day, Lucinda brings well-written stories to her fans, making Suburban Turmoil a daily must-read.

We put out a call to some of her readers, and we weren't surprised by the flood of humorous praise we received. Lucinda is one admired writer - take a look:

Susie Sunshine, who knows a little something about fantastic writing herself, had this little tidbit to share:

Here's a little secret about Lucinda -she's not real.
She's actually a computer program created from a partnership between Martha Stewart and the Comedy Channel trying to break into the world of mommy bloggers.

Seriously, do you know any other blogger who reads and comments on so many blogs daily, prepares lovely dinners (with an attached blog of recipes! Martha didn't even TRY to cover her tracks with that one!), all while making with the funny from daily drudgery (forgotten bottles in a diaper bag, bikini waxes, carpool duties)?! This data is entered into a special program and perfect posts pop out like a turkey timer every day.

Gorgeous "Baby" is actually a photo-shopped composite of infant features voted "most adorable" by readers of People magazine. Realizing the spending power of blended families, two step-daughters were added. Celebrity functions and an Emmy were inserted to give housewives backstage passes to the entertainment world, while the lovely "Perfect Post" award was created to highlight other bloggers (sharing the spotlight, a trick Martha learned while incarcerated).

It took a computer program to do it, but they finally managed to turn Martha Stewart into a humorous, enjoyable human being. I'd have drinks with "Lucinda" any time!

Chris was won over, despite her loss:

Oh what to say about Lucinda. I have loved her ever since she said I had stripper sized boobs. Because no one has ever said that about me before.

I first discovered her blog when we were both nominated for the BOB award for mommy blog and she stole it out from under me won it. Not that I am bitter or anything. (I am joking by the way, she deserved the win)

I immediately fell in love with her sarcasm and sense of humor. I admire the way that she writes about her older step daughters, keeping it real, but not crossing that privacy line. It's a tough one I think.

When I click over to her blog I never know what she will be writing about. I do know, however that it will be good. She is an incredible writer who moves effortlessly between writing stories about her kids, husband, and personal hair removal to posts which are original and creative, like Wednesday's post which was supposed to be an internal memo about changes to the book What to Expect Toddler Years.

Anyone who isn't reading her, should run over there and read, right now.

Co-conspirator MommaK had this to say about the lovely Lucinda:

If I could describe who Lucinda is to me, I'd have to say that she's like the sorority sister I never had. Actually we are sisters - blog bitch sisters (but that's a story I'll never tell). Along with being my co-host for the monthly Perfect Post Awards, she is a brilliant writer, excellent chef, wonderful mother & wife and a very good friend. She is a rising star in this here blogosphere and with all that talent, she's headed to the top of the heap.

One day Lucinda and I will party like rock stars, stumble around in heels too high and glasses too full - and hopefully take lots of pictures. However, we will not get sick in the limo (hear that L??). Until then we'll just blog our butts off and then some.

Lucinda is awesome - just awesome. What else can I say?

Kristen Chase gets right to the eyebrows:

I'm pretty sure everyone is going to say how great a writer Lucinda is, or how funny and witty her posts are, or how she is, as I coined, the Queen Dialogga-Blogga, so I'm going to be totally superficial and gush about her perfect eyebrows. They are amazing.

But seriously, her writing style and unique viewpoint as a new mom/stepmom attracts a variety of readers, moms and not-so-moms alike. And for good reason. She's versatile, intriguing, and eloquent. And as a new blogger and writer, she has been genorous and supportive.

Now back to plucking...

Karen Rani of Troll Baby was happy to share the love:

Lucinda's blog is on my daily reads. She is insightful, hilarious and I love the interesting stories she tells. Her creativity is unique and I really enjoy every single post. The Perfect Post awards that she does with Momm K of Petroville has brought new blogs to my favorites and was one more of her fantastic ideas. I know Lucinda will go places with her writing. Talent city.
