Pick up a copy of "Bulletproof web design" by Dan Cederholm
It's a sweet little book, and has a nice section on the usage of a dl,
next to plenty of other standards based design examples.

Its example code
===========================================
<div id="sweden">
 <dl>
   <dt>Stockholm</dt>
   <dd class="img"><img src="img/gamlastan.jpg" width="80"
height="80" alt="Gamla Stan" /></dd>
   <dd>This was taken in Gamla Stan (Old Town) in a large square of
amazing buildings.</dd>
 </dl>
 <dl>
   <dt>Gamla Uppsala</dt>
   <dd class="img"><img src="img/uppsala.jpg" width="80" height="80"
alt="Gamla Uppsala"
/></dd>
   <dd>The first three Swedish kings are buried here, under ancient
burial mounds.</dd>
 </dl>
 <dl>
   <dt>Perpetual Sun</dt>
   <dd class="img"><img src="img/watch.jpg" width="80" height="80"
alt="Wristwatch" /></dd>
   <dd>During the summer months, the sun takes forever to go down.
This is a good thing.</dd>
 </dl>
</div>
===========================================
You can download the book's sourcecode from the site.
There's some (unhelpful) preview on safari :

Been there too, explaining my design decisions to the uninitiated...
