If you are walking the malls of America, you understand the absolute pleasure of walking in a safe and comfortable environment.  No dog poop to step on.  No dangerous traffic to dodge or offensive car fumes.  Instead you find an array of windows displays and dressing to soothe your mind's eye.  The fresh smell of coffee eminating from the food court with the cinammon rolls begging you to take a break.

HOW TO STOP PEOPLE FROM BUGGING YOU ABOUT GETTING MARRIED

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

I Love Cinnabons, Don't You?
 
I love cinnabons, don't you?
drenched in glaze with a swirly top,
their smell invades the air
and it makes me want to stop...
 
but i know i can't since i must endure
the rapid pace my wife has set.
i tug my cap and swing my arms
and wonder why i placed this bet.
 
i said that i could make it around
this oblong mall six times at least.
and after two i doubt my strength
can overcome the need to feast.
 
i taste the glaze inside my mouth,
the soft caress of melting bread.
the warm embrace the coffee brings
dancing thoughts inside my head.
 
i know the time has come to make my choice.
i've made it halfway, slow down a bit.
the sweetly smell has claimed its hand.
i feign a spell, i have to sit.
 
i'm okay, no need to worry.
you just go, i'll rest a few.
and then i reach inside my wallet.
i love cinnabons, don't you?

Home Safe by Elizabeth Berg

ABOUT THIS BOOK

The bestselling author of The Day I Ate Whatever I Wanted and The Year of Pleasures returns with a wonderful novel about a woman, a daughter, and a surprising change in life

Beloved author Elizabeth Berg tells the story of the recently widowed Helen Ames and of her twenty-seven-year-old daughter Tessa. Helen is shocked to discover that her mild-mannered and loyal husband had been leading a double life. The Ames’s had saved money for a happy retirement, planned in minute detail, but that money has disappeared in several big withdrawals—spent by Helen’s husband before he died. What could he possibly have been doing? And what is Helen to do now? Why does Helen’s daughter object to her mother’s applying for a job—and why doesn’t Tessa meet a nice man and get married?

What Helen’s husband did with all their money turns out to be provocative, revelatory—and leads Helen and her daughter to embark on new adventures, and change.
