		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday.  What did we do yesterday?  I began the day attempting to sleep in, but my daughter had other plans, including a bath and a dozen questions.  By the time my soaking wet husband and muddy 10-year old returned home from his football game, Grace and I were ready to head out in a quest [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Fruit flies flitted about my house this week.  I blame the bananas.
But fruit flies are no match against a housewife with access to Google.
Here is the quickest, easiest way to get rid of them:  Pour a little red wine vinegar (or balsamic, but white won&#8217;t work) in a cup.  Add a drop of dishwashing liquid.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[For a decade, give or take ten minutes, I tried to mold my twin boys into my image.  They have resisted all efforts and insist on being their own unique selves.  I thought I had simply failed to try hard enough, that I did not repeat myself enough, or reinforce positive behaviors enough.
And [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Mom,&#8221; she said, &#8220;When I&#8217;m an old lady will you be dead?&#8221;
Alas, that&#8217;s probably true because I was at an &#8220;advanced maternal age&#8221; when I gave birth to her after a quick labor.  (She was born at home, a fact I am inordinately proud of, a fact that does not come up in casual [...]]]></description>

While we do have our favorite sites, I&#8217;m always happy to hear about new online destinations for kids.  One of the latest is Woogi World, a virtual world where kids can play games online, complete tasks offline and do [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My work on the Internet has revealed some hilarious mis-heard phrases.
Just tonight, I read a paragraph by a woman who bemoaned her husband&#8217;s &#8220;carpool tunnel&#8221; injury.
Last week, a woman asked for others to share some &#8220;old wise tells.&#8221;
Someone else mentioned a &#8220;cereal killer.&#8221;  A mom announced herself as a &#8220;SHAM.&#8221;  (FYI:  SAHM [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am waiting for a thought worthy of blogging, but alas, my life has turned into an un-comedy of errors.  If I continue to wait for a noble reason or profound thought to share then this blog will echo with the sound of silence or the chirping of crickets.
However, life hasn&#8217;t been as dull [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Family,
When I buy things in bulk, I intend to use up one container before we open the next.  Therefore, I am bewildered to find two opened containers of these items in the fridge:
Parmesan cheese
Mayonnaise
Mustard
Ketchup
Cucumber Chip Pickles
Sour cream
You might have noticed that I consolidated the four opened Cheerio boxes (plain and multi-grain) into two [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I pull my hair back, I see two gray ones.  When I raise my eyebrows, my entire forehead furrows into rows which never really settle back down.  My chin hosts a collection of (regularly plucked) stiff bristles.
I&#8217;m getting old.
I don&#8217;t mind the fact that my boss is younger than me, that I could practically [...]]]></description>
