In a tender and uproarious memoir, singer-songwriter Rodney Crowell reveals the good, the bad, and the ugly of a dirt-poor southeast Texas boyhood.

The only child of a hard-drinking father and a holy-roller mother, acclaimed musician Rodney Crowell was no stranger to bombast. But despite a home life always threatening to burst into violence, Rodney fiercely loved his mother and idolized his blustering father, a frustrated musician who took him to see Hank Williams, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins, and Johnny Cash perform. Set in 1950s Houston, a frontier-rough town with icehouses selling beer by the gallon on payday, pest infestations right out of a horror film, and the kind of freedom mischievous kids dream of, Chinaberry Sidewalks is Rodney's tribute to his parents and his remarkable youth. Full of the most satisfying kind of nostalgia, it is hardly recognizable as a celebrity memoir. Rather, it's a story of coming-of-age at a particular time, place, and station, crafted as well as the perfect song.

Good quality trash bags with reliable strength and pleasant scent
Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using these Glad ForceFlex Tall Kitchen Trash Bags (13 Gallon, Gain Lavender scent) for my regular household trash, and overall they’ve performed very well. The material feels strong and flexible, which helps prevent tearing when the bag gets full or when disposing of heavier items. One thing I appreciate is the ForceFlex design, which allows the bag to stretch instead of ripping when handling bulky waste. The drawstring closure is also sturdy and makes it easy to tie and carry the bag without worrying about leaks or spills. The Gain Lavender scent is noticeable but not overpowering. It helps reduce everyday trash odors, especially in the kitchen, which is a nice bonus for a busy household. In terms of capacity, the 13 gallon size fits standard kitchen trash cans perfectly, and the box lasts a good amount of time, making it practical for routine use. What I liked most: The strength and flexibility of the bags stand out. They hold up well even with heavier trash, and the scent adds a fresh touch without being overwhelming. What could be improved: While the scent is pleasant, those who prefer unscented bags may want another option. Also, depending on usage, the price may feel slightly higher than basic trash bags, but the durability helps justify it. Overall: These are dependable kitchen trash bags that combine durability, flexibility, and odor control. I would consider purchasing them again for everyday household use.

Surprisingly great—no more kitchen odors!
Size: 140 Count (Pack of 1)
I honestly didn't think I’d be this impressed by trash bags, but these have been a total game-changer for my kitchen. The Gain Lavender scent is subtle but does a great job of masking that typical "trash smell," and the bags themselves are super strong. The ForceFlex material actually lives up to the name—they stretch without ripping, so I don't have to worry about them breaking on the way to the bin. It sounds silly, but it’s made such a difference in keeping the kitchen cleaner and stress-free. Definitely worth the buy!

I’ve been using these trash bags and I’m honestly impressed. They are very strong and don’t tear easily, even when they’re full or holding heavier items. I like that they have a good capacity and fit perfectly in my kitchen trash can. They also help prevent leaks and bad odors, which is a big plus. I’ve used them for daily trash as well as bigger clean-ups, and they’ve held up really well every time. Definitely a reliable option if you’re looking for durability and quality.
