I have a nephew who's getting married in a couple of months, and he and I have given each other a hard time for as long as I can remember. So, I thought I'd make a special little gift to give to his fiance next week at her bridal shower: How to Train a Husband

Wowzer! Laxatives with dessert. That would be one serious pet peeve regarding the toilet seat being left up! Now if only you had a card that would get them to do housework without being asked first.....
