...something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour...
...a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to retelling it in her old age...
...a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...
...one friend who always makes her laugh ... and one who lets her cry...
...a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family...
...eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored...

{EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW}

..how to quit a job, break up with a lover, and confront a friend ... without ruining the friendship...
...when to try harder ... and when to walk away...
...that she can't change the length of her calves, the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents...
...that her childhood may not have been perfect...but its over...
...how to live alone... even if she doesn't like it...
...whom she can trust, whom she can't, and why she shouldn't take it personally...
...what she can and can't accomplish in a day... a month...and a year...
