Jewelry:DIY Style | June 30, 2010

It’s not unusual for our jewelry boxes to be filled with piece we haven’t worn in many years. Maybe the piece is outdated or maybe the clasp is broken. Either way, the piece was kept with a thought to possibly wear it again.

Repurposing jewelry, to give it a new look, is an excellent DIY project. Refurbishing outdated or broken beaded jewelry is a fun and easy way to be creative while making a new, stylish signature piece. On any given day, I meet women at bead boutiques who are seeking beginner instruction on knotting pearls and how to use materials … Read More »

Seoul, Korea- Day 2 | June 30, 2010

Day 2 and up bright and early (not yet adjusted to the 13-hour ahead time difference)! I started the day off with a morning walk around Cheongdam Park in the Cheongdam-dong area of Seoul. This park is absolutely gorgeous- it’s like a forest right in the middle of this concrete metropolis! This certainly helped me build up an appetite, and I was lucky enough to find a street vendor right outside of the park (I love eating street food in other countries).  I ordered what everyone else was eating- something called special toast. Special toast is an omelet … Read More »

Why Guilt Should Not Be A Part of Your Daily Life | June 29, 2010

As I sat at my daughter’s rehearsal this morning, I should have been all smiles and full of pride. But I wasn’t it. I wasn’t watching her steps and enjoying her smile. No… instead I was tense, preoccupied and frantically answering e-mails on my iPhone. Why? Well, I really didn’t have a clue that anything was the matter until the lights came up and all of the other mother’s were applauding. What?! Did I really just miss everything? As my eyes began to adjust to the bright auditorium, only one thing came to mind: Guilt. Yes, I felt guilty for … Read More »

Sun, Safety, Sunscreens and Cancer | June 28, 2010

As we reach the peak season of the summer sun, wisdom suggests that we pay greater attention to protecting our skin. Yet, there are questions about the best way to do this. Should we avoid the sun? Is all sun exposure bad for us? Are all sunscreens created equal? Does clothing afford any protection?

On one hand, we’ve all been warned of the dangers that lurk behind those healthy-looking tans; most notably, an increased risk of skin cancer and premature wrinkles. On the other hand, there is also reasonable evidence that sun exposure does not induce melanoma, the deadliest … Read More »
