It’s hard to believe another Christmas is nearly upon us! Every year it seems to come sooner than the last, and by December 26 I’m ready to take the decorations down! My friend Valerie Parr Hill has a good suggestion for decorating (which she shared in the November InsideQ): “Spread it over a few weeks; that way it’s less daunting and you have more time to enjoy your decorations before they have to come down again.” This is a great idea for taking the decorations down as well.

Growing up the middle child between two sisters was not always easy. There was the usual sibling rivalry, and at any given time it was me and my older sister against my younger sister, me and my younger sister against my older sister, or (worst-case scenario for me) both my sisters would gang up on me!
My older sister, Tracee, reigned supreme for four years before I came along. Needless to say, she wasn’t as happy as my parents were when I was born. Mom tells stories of how Tracee tried to get rid of me (for example, by having me tie the window blinds cord around my neck and ...

She reached out to me for my thoughts and now wants to reach out to each of you for your opinion. Where do we as individual shoppers find out what is happening in the world of fashion or jewelry?

Back in the early 1990s my wife and I purchased a beautiful new two-story townhome. We had been living with our toddler son in a three-room condo, and moving into a three-bedroom townhome was liberating, to say the least. Because we had it built, we were able to make modifications to the floor plan, and one of the things I wanted was a formal living room. You know, the kind you had as a kid and weren’t allowed into except on holidays? We installed white carpeting and double doors (which remained closed most of the time so my son wouldn’t wander in). I painted the room a...

Anyone who thinks modeling is easy should try it sometime. Sure, it looks like all models have to do is pose and look pretty, but it’s not as easy as they make it seem. I’m not a model (obviously!), but many years ago as a tall, slim youth with a 27-inch waist, everyone used to tell me I could be one. So I trekked to Philadelphia with a friend for an “interview” at a well-known modeling school. During this interview my fingernails were inspected (and deemed “needs help”) and I was asked to walk up and down a hall. What could be easier than walkin...
