We are so tired of this heat and humidity — but we still gotta eat! We share some of our favorite go-to cool dishes and ideas for hot weather. We also talk about how our tastes sometimes differ from our husbands' and how we handle it (without hassle).

The art of the hostess/host gift. Kelly has a special drawer devoted to such gifts — along with gift bags, tissue paper and greeting cards, and has a great time adding to her stash. Morgan is delightedly inspired, and you will be, too!

Morgan talks about her weeklong birthday plans, plus we talk about favorite birthday meals from childhood and adulthood.
