It is a beautiful scarf, full of orange poppies and elegantly signed by Anne Klein. Thus Sue Harrison entered a brave new phase in her professional life:…
I heard that Punxsutawney Phil, the famous Pennsylvania ground hog didn’t see his shadow today, and I’m delighted for folks in that grand state who will have a short winter this year. (At least according to ground hog lore.) But where I live in the Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, we had a bright, sunny day, and any…
