   Smile, it's the Tooth Fairy
She comes in the night and helps herself to freshly-fallen out teeth, leaving a shiny coin - or fresh bill - in its place under a pillow. Yes, it's the Tooth Fairy, and we'd like to know your favorite memory of the anticipation of waiting for her, the attempts you made to get a glimpse of her, and the best gifts she left you. Parents, we'd love to hear about your and your child's experiences with the Tooth Fairy as well. Send your memory to Living Well Editor Jessica Kosowski, P.O. Box 600, Attleboro, MA 02703, or jkosowski@thesunchronicle.com and include a photo, if you have one, of you or your child's toothless grin after a happy visit from the Tooth Fairy. We'll need your stories by Feb. 16, so don't delay.

Here's a scenario: Even though the Patriots didn't make it to the Super Bowl this year, you still got invited to a Super Bowl party. Wonderful, everyone loves taco dip, chicken wings and watching the commercials. There's one problem: You don't know all that much about football, let alone that the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts are playing.

Not to fear. Use this primer on the basic rules of the game, different scenarios and phrases that will get you into the game and sounding like you know what's going on even if you don't. The rules of football are many and complex, so this isn't comprehensive, but it's a start.

Now, sit back, read up and get ready to pass the chips.
