FEATHER BALLS FOR THE HIGH HOLIDAYS
I’m not being blasphemous here, Feather Balls are Matzoh Balls and today is the start of the Jewish High Holidays. Now I don’t know much about the holidays or how to cook the meals or make the whole thing work the way it is supposed to as I was raised in a white bread town by Jews who pretended they weren’t. So I have to rely on the kindness and wisdom of others.
This year I reached out to my new friend Sarah Lohman. She not only gave me some great information she threw in a real kicker at the end.

APPLES BLOOM ON ORCHARD STREET
Yesterday we wandered into the Apple Festival on Orchard Street. Old New York, mixed with hipster New York mixed with every kind of apple concoction you can think of. It made for a perfect fall day that could only happen in New York.

MAMMOGRAM DAY
Nobody likes them. Nobody wants to have them. And I don’t know a woman who isn’t terrified of them. But we have do it. Today was mine. This weekend is also the Susan Koman Race For The Cure Run/Jog/Walk here in New York. Needless to say they have been on my mind.

MISSONI MADNESS
I don’t know a lot about many things, but there are certain things I thought I had down, shopping was one of them. The recent marriage of Target and Missoni brought me to my knees.

TRYING TIMES
Now that it is behind us and I stare out the window at the fall rain I can honestly say I don’t know anyone who had a smooth summer this year.

START THE SEASON OFF BY GIVING WHAT YOU KNOW
Despite the fact I graduated from high school in 1976 I still think of the year in terms of the school schedule. So when most people make their resolutions in December I tend to do it in September.
Have you been telling yourself the world is a mess and I would like to help out? Do you want to get more involved in grooming the future generation and passing on what you know? Well, September is a good time to start and Catchafire has a way of making it easy.
