Fun fact: before I accidentally bought a house in New York, the next stop in my journey was planned to be writer’s retreat winter in Cape Cod. Turns out there’s no need to leave the state: you can just cross the river!

Lakefront Chalet@ Sleepy Hollow Lake available for seasonal rental. A great way to experience lake living first class!!! This recently renovated home boasts great open floor plan on main level with woodstove to sit by and warm up on chilly days. First floor bed and bath complete this main level. Ups...

All you have to do is look at our May '24 cover girl, Ms. Trudette Crimi of Trudy's Beauty Shop, to know that she walks her talk.

WHAT DOES SKIN CARE HAVE TO DO WITH ME BEING/GETTING HEALTHY???

You skin is your largest organ! Everything you put on your skin goes into your bloodstream within 60 seconds and affects all of your internal organs.

So even if you eat “clean”, every time you shower, wash your face, apply lotion and creams, you’re literally fast tracking toxins right into your body….UNLESS your personal care products are clean too!(check for certifications, clinical trials and know the ingredients )

Arbonne’s DermResultsAdvanced line will stop that flow of toxins into your body PLUS make you look younger within days!!!

WHEN YOU KNOW BETTER YOU CHOOSE BETTER.

WELL, NOW YOU KNOW!

Not only is this line clean and toxin free, it's anti aging that ACTUALLY works!

Clinically tested and works synergistically with layerable and buildable ingredients to deliver maximum results.

Results Include.....

• Reduces visible signs of aging like lines, wrinkles

• Improves elasticity and firmness

• Smooths texture

• Increases moisture for a more youthful-looking appearance.
