From time to time, we can all use some inspiration. Sometimes we need to let go and embrace change. One way to do that is by switching up the artwork in our homes. A work of art – whether it’s a photograph or a painting – offers a new perspective and a window into another time, place, or even a feeling or mood.

One destination worth visiting is Art Gallery 71, which takes its name from its location at 71 East Market Street in Rhinebeck. It was founded in 2019 by local artists Wendy Sheasby, Richard Chianella, and Trevor Hunter along with Evelyn LaStella and Alix Travis, who remain the two LLC partners today.

A few years ago, health publications all over were reporting that the ideal daily step count was 10,000. While not completely unattainable, getting 10,000 requires some serious dedication for those who drive to work and then sit at a desk for eight hours or so each day. Good news for those who have a hard time working periods of walking in during their day – new research suggests that you can get fewer than 10,000 steps daily and reap the same benefits.

An article from SELF reported that a scientific analysis published in The Lancet Public Health concluded that the ideal daily step count falls somewhere in between the 5,000-7,000 range.

“This is it!” The car had rolled through the sleepy town of Sharon, CT, in 1960. Just a family on an outing, exploring parts of the state that were remote from their home in Norwich. They were thinking of relocating. There was a house available on Calkinstown Road. There was an open retail space in the new shopping center in the middle of town perfect for a new pharmacy. The Heacox family had arrived.

64 years on, family owned and operated Sharon Pharmacy continues to be a magnet, drawing loyal customers from around the area and continuing to attract a loyal following as new families appear and the town continues to thrive.

In 1909, a gentleman by the name of Frank Hasbrouck edited the 1,000+-page The History of Dutchess County, New York, for which he kicked off the preface with this: “The year of the tercentennial celebration of the Hudson River seems an eminently fit time for the publication of one of the most important counties whose shores are washed by its waters.” And off we go!

To yours truly, a near-lifelong Columbia County resident, the opportunity to do a little poking into the not-so-recent history of my neighbor to the south didn’t seem like a bad deal at all. As I rummaged along through Mr. Hasbrouck’s tome, certain items stuck out that demanded to be let back out into the light of day.

One of autumn’s most anticipated cookbooks, The King Cookbook, by Annie Shi, Clare de Boer, and Jess Shadbolt will be released on November 4. Annie, Clare, and Jess are the women behind New York City’s beloved restaurants King and Jupiter, the newly opened wine bar Lei in Chinatown, and Stissing House in Pine Plains, NY.

The culinary trio will be celebrating the launch of the cookbook with a signing event at Oblong Books in Millerton, NY, on Saturday, November 8 from 2-3pm. Ahead of the event, I caught up with the authors to discuss the new cookbook, how they curated recipes, and key techniques for cooking.

I recently caught up with Heather Canetto of Herrington Fuels Inc., which is located just south of Hillsdale, NY, by the old Roe Jan School. Talking with Heather I learned not only about the ins and outs of her business but also about the family legacy that she’s continuing in the greater Hillsdale area. Heather spoke of the importance of their entire staff and the community that they service, along with the ever-evolving industry and how that has shaped their business.

When I visited Colleen McGuire in her Sharon, CT, studio, our conversation turned to the practice of plein-air painting and how it informs her broader artistic vision. McGuire’s work carries the sensibility of film stills – fragments of a larger story frozen in time. Each painting suggests that something has just happened, or is about to happen, just beyond the frame.
