        <media:description><![CDATA[Choose richer. Don’t buy more house than you can afford. It’s easy to get swept up in a vision of yourselves in a big house. We’ve all been sold on the idea that self-respecting grown-ups live in a 3/2 on a cul-de-sac with something called a “great room.” But for a just-married couple, and even through baby number one, a one-bedroom dwelling is plenty of space. Babies don’t need their own rooms―just a quiet corner where you can stash their tiny clothes and supplies. You want to have enough money after you’ve paid the rent or mortgage to be able to eat out, travel, and furnish that nest, so leave room in your budget for life beyond the house.]]></media:description>

        <media:description><![CDATA[Medication: You’d think that something called a “medicine cabinet” would be the optimal place to store pills and prescriptions, but heat and humidity cause medicine to deteriorate, making any cabinet in this room a bad choice. Instead, keep medicine in a kitchen cabinet, away from the stove and sink, or in another secure, dry, dark space. Keep medicines in their original bottles.Practice good razor technique:Keep your razor out of the shower, where it may stay damp, rust, and become a breeding ground for bacteria. Rinse it immediately after use, and store blade up so that it dries quickly. Replace blades or disposable razors after five uses to prevent bacteria buildup.]]></media:description>

        <media:description><![CDATA[Simply put: A plane uses more fuel during takeoff and landing, so by limiting the amount of runway time you are helping conserve fuel. While it might be cheaper to book a flight with several stops, you’ll just be wasting time and precious fuel.Also, pack lightly. The more pounds of luggage a plane carries, the more fuel it needs to fly. So think about that when you pack that fifth pair of shoes.Want to offset your carbon footprint? Plant a tree or donate to an organization like the Conservation Fund which works to aid reforestation (rebuilding our natural forests). Throughout a tree’s lifetime, it will absorb carbon dioxide and, in exchange, give off oxygen into our atmosphere. While we can’t completely cancel out the impact of flying, planting more trees can definitely help.]]></media:description>

        <media:description><![CDATA[Simply put: A plane uses more fuel during takeoff and landing, so by limiting the amount of runway time you are helping conserve fuel. While it might be cheaper to book a flight with several stops, you’ll just be wasting time and precious fuel.Also, pack lightly. The more pounds of luggage a plane carries, the more fuel it needs to fly. So think about that when you pack that fifth pair of shoes.Want to offset your carbon footprint? Plant a tree or donate to an organization like the Conservation Fund which works to aid reforestation (rebuilding our natural forests). Throughout a tree’s lifetime, it will absorb carbon dioxide and, in exchange, give off oxygen into our atmosphere. While we can’t completely cancel out the impact of flying, planting more trees can definitely help.]]></media:description>
