There are a lot of body parts I'm not particularly happy with (you
thighs know who you are), but the one part of me I've never been
bothered by is my feet. Not to be conceited, but I've always thought I
had pretty nice feet, as far as feet go. ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

"It's tennis elbow," my doctor said matter-of-factly.

"That's impossible," I responded, massaging my sore elbow. "I don't play
tennis."

She sighed. "It's just called that because it's a repetitive injury that
is commonly seen in tennis players...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

Having been a mom for many, many years, I've figured out how to cook
enough basic meals to keep my family alive. However, since I only have
about a half dozen dishes that I've perfected, it was just a matter of
time before my family got ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

"We need to talk about the elephant in the room," said my husband.

I gulped and nodded. It was a conversation I had tried to avoid for some
time, but it was clear that there was no putting it off any longer. This
was something that was not ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

I recently experienced something of a meltdown in the egg aisle at the
supermarket over which kind of eggs to buy. After much consideration, I
finally settled on the eggs I wanted (organic, free-range and
cage-free), when I discovered another ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[

Like many women I know, I have a vast array of shoes. Unlike clothing,
shoes, for the most part, continue to fit whether you gain or lose
weight, so they are the bright spot in a sometimes cruel and taunting
closet. For this reason, women take ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

"Oh boy!" exclaimed my husband. "There's a hot sauce shop in town!"

We were away antiquing for the weekend in a quaint village populated by
bed-and-breakfasts, art galleries and, apparently, a hot sauce shop. For
my husband, this was like ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

I was talking to a friend one night when I abruptly ended the
conversation.

"I'm sorry, I have to go," I said. "Otherwise I'll miss the 8:16."

"Oh, are you catching a train?" she asked me.

"No," I replied. "An alien."

The truth was, we had a...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

In the time that we've lived in the 'burbs, we've had a veritable parade
of icky insecty things cavorting through our home. There were the things
with a million legs that crawled up our bathtubs, the infestation of
little black ants that marched...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

"What's with all this candy?" asked my husband, eyeballing a large stack
of candy bags on the table.

"It's for Halloween," I replied nonchalantly.

"But Halloween isn't for three more months," he protested.

"I know," I said. "But I had to get ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

My husband and I were having dinner at a lovely restaurant one night
when I stopped eating mid-plate.

"I'm done," I said.

"What? Why?" he asked.

"This pasta and shrimp is delicious, but I'm full. I can't eat any
more."

"Take it home," he ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

If I'd had any choice in the matter, I certainly wouldn't have planned
to have my two kids' and husband's birthdays be only weeks apart. The
first two just kind of worked out that way. The third was completely out
of my control.

The problem ...<br /><br /><hr size="1" />]]></description>

"We got an invitation to something," I said to my husband as I opened
the elegant beige envelope with our names handwritten in calligraphy.

"What is it?" he wondered aloud.

I scanned the invitation. "It's a dinner party for John and Cheryl's
