Cleaning the house while the children are home is like shoveling while it's still snowing.

In two decades I've lost a total of 789 pounds. I should be hanging from a charm bracelet.

. . . but mostly, given another shot at life, I would seize every minute - look at it and really see it - live it - and never give it back.

Why take pride in cooking, when they don't take pride in eating?

Authorities say brain cells may shrink, but they don't necessarily die. Frankly, I am cheered by the fact that something is shrinking. I'd be even more thrilled if what was shrinking affected my dress size, but you can't have everything.

Housework, if it is done properly, can cause brain damage.

What we're really talking about is a wonderful day set aside on the fourth Thursday of November when no one diets. I mean, why else would they call it Thanksgiving?
