Tantra, Tupper & Tequila

What does a woman do when two moody teenagers and a midlife-crisis husband want to take over the household? She ignores them. Instead, she treats herself to salon visits that cost as much as car lease payments - and discovers drugs hidden in her sons' room, just to try them out.

For her 50th birthday, she gets a tantric weekend in the Eifel, an invitation to a hearing-aid party, and a Jochen Schweizer voucher to "smash a car" with a partner of her choice. Reading the newspaper, she wonders whether in a world falling apart, one can still enjoy life carefree, dance, and drink tequila.

Not only can you - you must - true to her motto: a woman shouldn't wait for a slice of cake, she should grab the cake server herself.
