True confession: Tues., Jan. 30, 2007

Again, in two parts:

1. I read a People magazine article about Tyra Banks gaining weight.
2. In it, she refers to a "muffin top"—which occurs when your pants are too tight and your fat bulges over the waistline. (Something many people know about, it seems.)

Never again will I be able to look at a muffin without thinking of that.
