Our stay was wonderful. Superb location, outstanding support from Jesse and Frank. The pool and clothing optional spa were wonderful.Отзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"Great B&B in NOLA"
Jesse and Frank were wonderful hosts. This 8 room B&B was very nicely decorated, maintained, and friendly. Location is very short walk to the WW2 museum, and long walk to Superdome, French Quarter and Magazine Street boutiques. The gardens around the small private pool and hot tub area was very nice, but weather was too cool to take advantage of, and […] it has "European Attitude" if you should opt for topless sunbathing around the pool. We would like to come back to stay here on our next trip to New Orleans. ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com

"Great New Orleans stay"
This B&B is located near enough to the Quarter to walk but far enough away to avoid the crazy and noise. It has all the New Orleans charm you could ask for and the Inn keepers are excellent. They gave me so many good suggestions for touring the city I never got to them all. One thing different about this B&B is that breakfast is a standard continental […] breakfast with cereal, fruit and waffles. In other words no one makes you breakfast. This was a disappointment but other than that the facilities are excellent and I would recommend it to anyone. ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Expedia

Super clean hotel with excellent service. Unfortunatelly, not very well located. Breafast wasn't very good.Отзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"Great Place to stay"
I stayed at the Green House Inn to attend the annual New Orleans comic convention. The staff was above and beyond the regular chain hotels. The location was great for walking to the French Quarter, Garden District, Warehouse District, Convention Center and the Mississippi. I Have no complaints with my stay and overall a great experience.Отзыв реального пользователя Expedia
"Great experience, great stay."
My partner, two miniature poodles and I spent seven nights in the Green House Inn. What an excellent experience. Upon arriving, we discovered that our initial room, the Hibiscus Room, was too small. While it would be ideal for a single person or two, it just didn't cut it for two plus two pups. Jessie the Innkeeper, immediately set out to make sure […] our stay was comfortable. He put us in the third-floor suite, a fabulous 2 room space for several days no additional cost. Then, put us in the Orchid Room, the biggest room in the Inn even though he was installing new windows and we kept the Hibiscus Room as well. The Inn itself is a great house with a fabulous pool and deck area surrounded by a tropical garden and a macaw named Rio. To cool go swimming, we sat around the pool and enjoyed other guests. Jessie was quick to offer suggestions for dinner and places to see often going on his computer and looking up menus and locations for us. He struck the right balance of being there when you need him but not being intrusive. The breakfasts are nothing special, however, I enjoyed waking up to the smell of waffles wafting up the staircase as much as devouring one. There are several small breakfast restaurants within a couple of blocks for those that need a more traditional breakfast. For those traveling with pets, there is Coliseum Square, a lovely park, just a couple of blocks away. I strongly recommend this Inn and am looking forward to our next visit at the Green House Inn.

"Great Place to Stay"
This was our first time at a B&B and we could not have been more pleased. The Green House Inn is in a quiet area of town but close to the street car ,the hop onhop off, and restarants. The inn it's self is over 160+ years old and very nice inside, the owner and assistant manager were extremely nice and helpful. We will stay at the Green House Inn again […] the next time we are in New Orleans. This is a great place to stay... ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"Wonderful taste of New Orleans hospitality"
My wife and I could not be more pleased with our stay at the Green House Inn. Wonderful location on Magazine Street. Great house kept in excellent repair by it's owner and host. Close to the Warehouse District, shopping on Magazine Street and the French Quarter. Great fun and a wonderful taste of true New Orleans hospitality. We are already planning […] our next trip back!

"Nice & relaxing - Beats the big hotels"
Didnt really know what to expect given the location & general problems with hotels in Nola, but was pleasantly surprised. Its nice & quiet despite being on the edge of the garden district & close to the freeway; the hosts are wonderful & the place is clean & tidy. Secure offstreet parking is included, and its an easy-ish walk to Canal street, easier […] on the Bus which stops just around the corner - I didn't move my car all week. Great outside area to sit & relax in too - the pool was clean & looked quite inviting as the temperatures go up. Rooms are clean & everything works. Recommend if you want to enjoy the town & then relax away from the people & noise. Theres also a decent bar across the street for big Cocktails to start the evening. Would stay there again.

When staying in a chain hotel, you may not even realize what city you are in. This was a pleasant experience.Отзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"Enjoyed our stay"
A nice hotel for adults. About a 4-5 block walk to the Trolly line. We know New Orleans so walking to the French Quarter was no problem. Staff very helpful and enjoyed the history and gardens of the Green House. We were there on the weekend so traffic noise wasn't a problem. Not sure how the week days would be. Would stay again there.Отзыв реального пользователя Expedia
"A return trip is necessary!"
The Green House will definitely have a return patron with me! Frank and Jesse are fantastic and were able to meet any and all needs during my stay.

"Great hotel for couples"
This is a small hotel with a pool and hot tub (clothing optional). Our room was very clean and comfortable; we had a king-size bed and our own bathroom with nice thick towels. Breakfast is a do-it-yourself affair with a selection of fruit, cereals, yogurt and a waffle iron. Snacks are available at any hour of the day or night. The staff is very friendly […] and welcoming.

"What a great place to stay..."
First of all... Jesse, Frank, and Alex were all wonderfully welcoming and tramendoulsy helpful. If you are looking for a relaxing place to recharge after a long day of wandering or a late night escapade, this is the place for you. We arrived with no plans and were greeted with many suggestions of places to eat, drink and explore. We had great conversation […] over breakfast and our late night hot tub was the best way to end our long day. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"Very nice B&B"
Overall it was a very nice B&B. The pool was a pleasant surprise and with the salt water. the ambiance around the pool reminded me of a resort that we go to in Cancun. It was very lush. Beautifully landscaped. The Rio parakeet was lovely and the spa music surrounding the area reminded of this other hotel. Morning coffee was great as were the fluffy […] waffles. Really couldn't ask for anything more out of a B&B. If you have knee issues make sure to get a main floor room. Hospitality was over and above. Would definitely go back there.

"Excellent alternative to a big hotel."
The Green House Inn is a Bed and breakfast in a beautiful old house in a centrally located neighborhood. The staff was excellent at making us feel comfortable and directed us to many good restaurants. Our room was romantic and charming and the bed was extremely comfortable. I will definitely stay here again.Отзыв реального пользователя Expedia
"Hidden Get-away in NOLA"
My husband and I stayed here while I traveled to NOLA for business. The Green House Inn is adorable, comfortable, and has a beautiful pool and garden that are completely hidden away from the busy road! We had a great stay, and even though the neighborhood seemed a little industrial, we walked almost everywhere and never had any problems. About a 25 […] minute walk from the French Quarter or a $10 cab ride. We would stay here again--very friendly service, clean rooms, comfortable bed. ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"Bed and Breakfast"
Nice hotel, about 1 mile from the French Quarter, not a bad walk if the weather cooperates, dreadful in the scorching heat or pouring rain. Dogs are allowed in the hotel, great for my 2 yr old who loves animals, not so good if you're allergic. Big deal was the "clothing optional" pool. I booked here so my toddler could play in the pool, but enough adults […] took advantage of the option and I didn't want to answer questions to my toddler, even worse for an older child. Otherwise, lovely B&B, staff was SUPER friendly and helpful! ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"Beware of internet booking"
Upon arrival, there was no where to park. Off street parking was gated and closed. Had to park on the street. Could not get to entrance without pushing button on gate at the sidewalk. Was greeted by young woman and a dog. The place boasts of lush tropical landscaping but it was more jungle like than tropical but it did help hide the gate/fencing round […] the property. It was right past a major highway overpass. The room was very small and the whole place had an odd smell. It did not meet our expectations so we did not check in!

"Very Disappointing!"
The exterior of this inn is very nice with a beautiful pool in the back and lovely gardens. However, I'm not sure how clean the pool actually is. The rooms are very basic, bordering on seedy. The common areas are okay but could be better. The breakfast is similar to what you get at a motel..nothing special. No coffee at 7:00 a.m. The Asst. Manager, […] Frank, is delightful and very helpful. I would love to see the place renovated because it could be beautiful but for now it's just sad! ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Expedia
"A gem of an inn, out-of-the-way, yet convenient."
When I walked in, the innkeeper said to treat their home like it was my own. This was the atmosphere the whole week. The house is old and has character, but it is clean and well-maintained. I didn't have an opportunity to use the salt-water pool in the garden, but it is in a beautiful surrounding. Warm cookies in the evening were a great touch. This […] trip I was solo, but I wouldn't hesitate to bring my wife the next time. Don't hesitate to visit this charming property amid New Orleans' garden district.

"New Orleans Magic"
The stay was perfect. Could easily stay a week. Rooms were comfortable even in the hot weather. The bed was just right and so luxurious. Bathrooms a bit small but who cares? You're not in New Orleans to hang out in the bathroom. Breakfast options are offered. The pool area is unique and lush. For the most part and older, mellow guests. The area is perfectly […] located out of the hustle and bustle but easy to get to the hustle and bustle. Frank was a charming host with a sweet sparkle of life emanating from him. They even have a Macaw, named Rio, that hangs out by the pool. If you want a special experience in New Orleans this place will add to the magic. ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Expedia
"Ideally located with a welcome pool to cool off in"
A welcoming friendly guest house that is clean and well located. Light breakfasts are provided as well as a waffle maker. The pool area is a relaxing place, just be advised that some guests prefer to bare all in the "European" themed tropical garden. The Inn is a pleasant place to stay and is well located and serviced by good transport links. Frank […] and Jesse are great hosts and very helpful, as is Alex and his restaurant knowledge.

"A Comfortable Inn"
The inn is located just outside the Warehouse District and convenience stores are at least half a mile away. It is fifteen minutes walk to the Convention Centre (Erato, Annuciation, Gaiennie) and safe. The staff (Frank & Alex) are very helpful (calling cabs, making restaurant reservations, etc.) and just for a general chat. The ambience is very homey […] with wide halls on the main floor, a very impressive dining room, comfortable furniture, a good selection of edibles and air conditioning. The garden is quite an impressive jungle with its own wild parrot, who keeps to himself, and a pool that is you could spend the whole day in. The rooms are very spacious with all new bathrooms and very comfortable beds. On the minus side - the main staircase could be cleaned more often as it presents a poor impression and the keyboard in the library needs cleaning so you can discern the letters. The Green House Inn is a great relax destination. ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Expedia
"Come Here to Relax and Unwind"
Older house, but very clean and well maintained. The floors are creaky, but that's what makes the character of the place. The back yard is an oasis of greenery with the trickling of the water falls cascading into the pool. Salt water to bout. No stinky clorine! Lots of places to sit and relax in the sun or shade. The bed was very comfortable and the […] place was very quiet. Frank and Jesse were very friendly and informative. My husband is not a great traveller and he loved it and wants to go back! We are thinking pre and post cruise next time:) This was our first time staying at a B & B. Will do it again! ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com

We really enjoyed staying here for our weekend in NOLA. Could walk from hotel throughout the Garden District, although I wouldn't recommend walking at night. That end of Magazine Street is a little sketchy, but it was fine taking a quick taxi. We did walk over to St. Charles Street during the day to catch the street car, and rode it over to the Quarter.

"New Orleans best kept secret : Quality is #1 here"
Amazing service and QUALITY that goes above and beyond any means of mortal measurement ! - Its a rare treat when I cannot think of anything but ALL positive things to say in these reviews. Let me first state that I travel very frequently for my work and pleasure. I have personally been to 61 countries and spend at least 150 nights each year at hotels […] . Over the last 22 years I have had a lot of past experiences to base my opinion on here . This small ,quiet hotel is possibly New Orleans Best kept secret in regards to lodging. Literally everything was PERFECT. The rooms are SPOTLESS and cleaned daily with plenty attention given to all those little details that make a hotel stay so special and memorable . It was nice to have a refrigerator in my Bougainville room where I stayed. I enjoyed my stay so much that I booked a extra 2 nights beyond what my original reservation was for. The GreenHouse Inn seemed more like a intimate bed and breakfast club than any common hotel chain I have ever stayed in. There is a dining room with a baby grand piano that serves as a common area which was always stacked with fresh baked goodies,chocolates and 24 hour continental breakfast available in a "help your self" mini kitchen.

"Charming and comfortable"
Lovely B&B in very convenient neighborhood; friendly people. House is old (1840s) and may look a little shabby in parts but is lovely and clean. Very comfortable rooms with soft linens and towels. Beautiful landscaping and small outdoor salt water pool surrounded by greenery and comfortable seating. Walking distance to French Quarter; 2 blocks away […] from St. Charles trolley. Breakfast is nothing to write home about (coffee, tea, cereal) but adequate and full breakfast places are nearby. Will definitely return. Highly recommend.

"Lovely B&B with tropical oasis for a pool"
This B&B has very comfortable accomodations. The furniture isn't brand new, but nice, clean(no funky hotel smell here), great inn keepers, amazing salt water pool/spa with lush tropical garden. I stayed in 100 degree weather but the pool was great mid day - you don't bake under the palms and banana plants. Bfast was cold itmes (cereals, croisant, fruit, […] yogurt) and help yourself. Water cooler there anytime you need a drink. I will only stay here when I go to NOLA. Jesse and Frank will tell you the best places to see and eat and know the city well. 3 blocks from the street car and walking distance to WWII museum. Parking also available. Bed was very comfortable with fridge in room. PUblilc computer/printer available. i checked out and they held my bag and let me hang poolside until my evening flight out. You can't ask for a better place. ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com

"They make you feel welcomed."
Was a fun place to stay! It was a short walk to street car. Parking was provided in a small lot :) The room and bathroom had plenty of space with large windows that overlooked the tropical pool area. The pool/hot tub were great. My husband would have liked just a little more or different breakfast options. We loved the hosts and the stay! We will plan […] on staying again!

"love this place!"
This hotel is fantastic! Its close to everything, but not loud... has an amazing staff, pool, and general feel about it. We had such a relaxing time, that we have already reccomended this hotel to our friends. I cant stress enough how great the pool was. It was salt water, and surrounded by tropical trees and plants. It felt miles away fro. The city, […] but it wasn't. Stay here, you won't be let down! ПодробнееОтзыв реального пользователя Hotels.com
"Felt like home"
Green House Inn was exactly what I was looking for during a week-long trip with my girlfriend to New Orleans. Being from NYC we don't mind walking so the 15 minutes it takes to reach the French Quarter by foot was great! And if we felt lazy, the St. Charles Street trolley is only 3 blocks away and takes you right to the FQ also! The Garden District […] is about the same travel time in the opposite direction either by foot or by trolley, so for us, Green House had the perfect location. Jesse and Frank did a great job of making us feel at home during our first trip to NOLA. Right off the bat, they told us where to go and what to do, both inside and outside the FQ. They told us some fascinating stories about their Katrina experiences too. They really know they city and love it just like you will by the time you leave. The Inn has a great backyard with an in-ground pool and very tropical landscaping that create some nooks and crannies to relax in. Plenty of free items for breakfast, easy check-in/out, and a comfortable bed, towel and room made this place feel better than home. The neighborhood isn't anything to write home about, but it's plenty safe and plenty close to everything you'll want to see in NOLA. You'll have a great time at the Green House Inn!

We stayed at the Greenhouse Inn for the 2nd weekend of Jazz Fest 2011. The service, rooms, and location were excellent. Loved the pool, loved the neighborhood! We hope to be there next year - same time!Отзыв реального пользователя Expedia
"The Green House Inn"
Stayed at the Green House Inn before a friend and I went on a cruise, the Inn is very charming and the staff is very friendly and helpful! It's not right on Bourbon Street but you can just hop on the trolley a couple of blocks away and ride there. If you happen to be going on a cruise, the Pier is only 7 blocks away and parking at the pier was easy […] and convenient. We enjoyed our stay so much we stayed there one more night after we got off the cruise! Loved The Green House Inn and won't stay anywhere else next stay in New Orleans. Highly recommend!!!

Edelstein: Chris Christie, the White House and 40 bucks
Forty bucks. A couple of Jacksons. Four lousy rolls of quarters.
That's the amount of money that has the potential to change the political course of New Jersey, America, and the world.
Why? Because $40 is roughly the amount the average New Jersey household would get if Gov. Chris Christie's original 10 percent, across-the-board income tax cut somehow gets passed by the Democrat-controlled legislature. (It won't. Nor will the Democrats plan to offer a tax credit based on property tax bills. Why? Budget projections not being met and Superstorm Sandy. More about this later. Back to the actual proposed tax cuts … )
But if you read the news articles, listen to the soundbites, you'd think the tax cuts in question would bring about Nirvana if passed, Hell on Earth if denied.
In reality, all it is is some political gamesmanship.
"I've heard some people talking concerns for the middle class in this state and I share that concern and I think if they did they (the Democrats) should have passed the middle class tax which is what we wanted to do and what I still want to do," Christie said, according to a report on NJ101.5. "They seem to just like to talk about doing something for the middle class rather than actually cutting taxes for the middle class."
The response from the Senate President Steve Sweeney? Honestly, he sounded more like the governor than the governor himself.
"Well you know that's a lot of crap," Sweeney said, according to the report.
Remember: This whole fight started over what amounts to $40.
Background: Last summer, Christie's fiscal year 2013 budget included plans for the 10 percent tax cut. Democrats immediately went after it, saying it was a tax cut for the wealthy, not the middle class. The Office of Legislative Services (OLS) ran some numbers, and they bore out the Dems concerns. A family with a $50,000 income would get a $26.83 tax cut in 2013, whereas a family making $250,000 would get nearly $400, according to the OLS. Continued...
The Democrats also noted the budget was, at best, optimistic, and at worst, going to be impossible to meet. So they hedged on the tax cut plan, saying they'd pass the tax cut if the money was there come this January.
It became clear, early on, the money was not going to be there. The state was running a shortfall almost from the word go. The Dems floated out their alternate tax cut plan, but pulled back as the shortfall just continued to grow.
Now, especially in the aftermath of Sandy, the budget is going to be short. Not only won't there be a tax cut, but in all probability, services will have to be trimmed.
And right there, that's the battle Christie will have to fight to win re-election next year. He has to convince New Jersey voters the tax cut kibosh was the Democrats fault, pure and simple (which it was, but it was probably the right thing to do). He has to argue the "middle class" would've benefited tremendously from the tax cut (they wouldn't have, but we middle class types are easily confused by math). He has to figure out a way to cut services without making it look like he's, you know, cutting services (if you're poor and live in an inner city, watch out).
Christie does have some wiggle room here, as he's sitting at a eye-popping 72 percent approval rating, according to the latest Quinnipiac poll. But that really means nothing. Just ask the first George Bush, who had an 89 percent approval rating a little more than an year before the 1992 presidential election. It didn't hold, to say the least.
I'm telling you: This tax cut that won't happen (almost certainly) and the budget not being met (probably) are going to be some major pivot points going forward. They're intertwined.
And remember: All of this started with an innocent little (emphasis "little") tax cut plan. It may end up costing Christie a second term. And if he loses, it all but ends any White House dreams for Christie.
But if he weathers it and wins re-election … well, it will not go unnoticed by the national Republicans, a group that isn't as enamored with our governor as they once were.
It's going to be an interesting year.

The perfume of a flower of gardenia floating in the mist of a Japanese garden.
Roll on to zoom in
Two years after the creation of Un Matin d'Orage, Camille Goutal imagined a new decoration, designed by her husband, to cover the symbolic Butterfly Bottle . To the white iridescent glass and the gold gardenia flowers, she added an elegant bird alighted on a delicate stem of gardenias. This refined and romantic design evokes nature in awakening after the storm... Un Matin d'Orage, a white gardenia, not yet picked, fragile and pure. A luminous, fresh and extremely feminine fragrance, of a bewitching freshness.
Hints and Tips
the way to perfume yourself is traditional: you have to soak the tip of the butterfly top and drip several drops on the nape of your neck, behind your ears, on your wrists, or in the hollow of your arms or your knees You can also use your fragrance by pouring the content into a spray bottle. A limited edition to get absolutely and to be used in association with the perfumed Body Cream and the Candle of the same scent, for an elegant and romantic present...

Darien Government Access Television - TV79 Weekly Schedule
We close this building in less than 4 weeks. We're looking forward. We're looking back. It's a wonder our heads aren't spinning...there is no time to wind down before we gear up for everything that's to come with our big, exciting move.
Besides, we still have lots going on here throughout the month of November!
In other November-news, our final Book Sale in this building begins next Saturday, the 8th! There will be an enormous amount of really great stuff for sale and you'll have through noon on the 12th to come by and sort through. Here are all the details.
On Sunday, November 16th, our Fall Book Discussion Series concludes with Unaccustomed Earth by Jhumpa Lahiri. It's the 4th and final book of our series, OF THEE I SING: NOVELS ABOUT THE CHANGING FACE OF AMERICA. We'll meet with our discussion leader Jordon Pecile (pictured at left) at 2:30 p.m. in the Program Room.
And fall is not fall in Darien without our Foreign Film Series! There are still two more films on the schedule and you won't want to miss them!
On Friday, November 14th, we'll be showing The Grocer's Son. In French with English subtitles, running time is 96 minutes.
And then on Friday November 21st (our last Friday in the building), Hula Girls will be the feature. In Japanese with English subtitles, the films runs 120 minutes.
We also have a fine art show that just went up and will be our Art On View through the rest of our time here. The exhibit is by the Art Faculty of the Darien Schools and not only is it a privilege to view, it's fabulous knowing that we are so privileged to have these talented individuals teaching in our schools!
And, now we return to our biggest Event-news of the month...we will close this building for good on Wednesday, November 26th at 6 p.m.
They went up around town yesterday and are the result of the effort of the Darien Domestic Violence Task Force. There are 84 ribbons, each one representing a dometic abuse/violence call to Darien Police during the fiscal year 2007-2008. The ribbons will be up throughout the month of October because October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month.
The Library is an active participant in the Task Force. The Proclamation will be here at the Library this Thursday, October 2nd at 11 a.m. On Friday, October 3rd at 7:30 p.m., we will be showing the film, The Color Purple downstairs in the Program Room.
Our annual knit-a-thon will be from 3-5 p.m. on Friday, October 17th.
We'll be knitting scarves and hats for the benefit of those staying in the shelters run by the Domestic Violence Crisis Center (DVCC).
The knit-a-thon is open to adults and children. Registration and previous knitting experience is required. Patterns, knitting needles, and yarn will be provided. Final drop-off of hats and scarves will be on Friday, November 21. Register at the Children's Room desk: 669-5235.
Here are a few thoughts on this question:
Monday's New York Times article, After Suicide, Blog Insults Are Debated, reported on an incredibly disturbing event. After being personally attacked by unwarranted comments posted on two well-known advertising blogs, the very successful and accomplished creative director of DDB-Chicago committed suicide. The article also discussed the 2006 suicide of a 13-year old girl who, in the months leading up to her death, had been cyber-bullied by an adult neighbor pretending to be a teenage boy.
We can certainly ponder the cause-and-effect relationship of bullying in the virtual world. The hard truth, however, is that what so many of us value and praise the Internet for providing - anonymity, ease of communication, freedom of expression - has, in part, morphed into a venue for virtual bashing without consequence. There it is - the electronic mob.
The even harder truth is that yes, the mob is right here in Darien. It's happening in the Darien News Blog. It's inevitably happening on our MySpace and Facebook accounts. It's even happening in The Darien Times, where individuals are using the public forum to personally attack people or the paper itself rather than presenting a civil argument on concrete issues affecting the town.
It's a curious thing. We would all take action if we saw a child being outright bullied on the playground by another child. We would stop what was happening to the best of our ability, wouldn't we? So why do we so readily accept the type of from-afar bullying that goes on in this town - the kind that tries to pass itself off as valid criticism? Why do we allow anonymity and personal attacking to occur while accountability falls by the wayside?
Another, and perhaps the most important, question for us all: What can we do about it?
For our close-knit community, as part of a world that has embraced the Internet age and freedom of speech with open arms, it's a question that should be confronted and answered. There's no doubt about that.
Perhaps a starting point for action will be the program being held at Darien Library tomorrow night at 7pm, when author Lee Siegel will be visiting to speak about the ideas in his new book, Against the Machine: Being Human in the Age of the Electronic Mob. Mr. Siegel clarifys the urgency with which we need to deal with the hidden dangers of the Internet and the lack of accountability that has become a norm in our society. Please join us and let's get the ideas rolling on how we can implement the changes that need to take place.

Searching for something fun to do on Saturday evening? Here is my suggestion, considering winter is in full swing and temperatures are set to dip into the 20s:
Rather than standing out on the platform in the wind and cold at Darien Station, waiting for a train heading into the Big Apple, instead visit the warm and cozy Library to experience New York City transportation through exquisite photographs.
This Saturday, January 19th, from 5:30pm to 7:30pm, the Library will hold an Artist Reception displaying The Astoria Elevated Line, a collection by photographer June Steffensen Hagen. Stop by, meet the artist, and mingle with your fellow community members. Refreshments will be served, and you're all invited!
The holiday season will soon be upon us, so it's a great time to begin scouting out the perfect tree for your family to enjoy this Christmas. Whether you are a first-time buyer or an ol' pro, you'll enjoy the Connecticut Grown brochure of the state's Christmas tree farms. It includes a directory of locations as well as some great tips on how to care for your tree to keep it looking festive through the new year. Consider taking home one of the 33 million real trees that will be sold this season!
Stop by the Library's Information Desk to pick up a brochure, bundle up the little ones, and take a ride to some of the many farms right here in Fairfield County. Also visit the CT Christmas Tree Growers website for tree selection tips, safety guidelines, fun facts, travel directions, hours of operation, and the special amenities that each farm provides. Most offer both pre-cut and cut-your-own trees, and some have complimentary treats, such as donuts, hot cocoa, and mailboxes for first-class letters to the North Pole!
Here are some locations near Darien:
CT Audubon Society H. Smith Richardson Tree Farm

Everett's Corner Tree Farm
Weekends December 1st through December 9th
Jones Family Farms

The Connecticut Department of Agriculture has introduced a fun, new way for you to locate a variety of fresh, top quality produce at neighborhood farms throughout the state.

Want a foldable map so that you can embark on a Connecticut Grown road trip at a moment's notice? Stop by the information desk at the Library to pick up a paper version of the website, as well as brochures for Connecticut Grown pumpkin picking, hay rides, farm festivals, and wine tastings.
The arrival of September has always signified the unofficial end of summer. Outdoor barbecues become a distant memory, and sandals are replaced by suede boots. However, September also brings about many exciting firsts – the first week of school, the first NFL game of the season – and for me, the new Louise Parker Berry Fellow at Darien Library, the first moment of a dream realized. Today, I, Erica Bess, am a librarian!
I attended the Library & Information Science program at Rutgers University during a time of transition for the library world, when new theories on developing collections and cutting-edge technologies emerged to the forefront. Every student dreams of finding an organization that embraces innovation and that provides a chance to work with the best in the field; I had to look no further than Darien Library.
I am delighted by the once-in-a-lifetime opportunities I will have to serve the Darien community, and I look forward to learning from you, as well. On your next visit to the library, please stop by and say hello to the new girl in town! I can't wait to meet all of you, and I hope you find these next two years to be as thrilling as I have dreamed them to be.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Discard any excess fat from the capon. Rinse it inside and out and pat dry with paper towels. Season the inside and out with lemon juice, salt and pepper.
Thinly slice one of the onions and set aside. Quarter the other onion and place it in the cavity along with the parsley and 1 tablespoon of the olives. Brush the capon with margarine and place it on its side in a roasting pan. Scatter the sliced onions and the remaining olives around the pan. Roast the capon for 35 minutes, basting with one-third of the wine. Turn the capon on its other side and roast for another 35 minutes, again basting with a third of the wine. Turn the capon breast side up for 15 minutes, basting with the remaining wine. Turn the breast side down for another 15 minutes. The capon is ready when the drumstick juices run clear.
The total cooking time is about one hour and 40 minutes, or about 11 minutes per pound.
Remove the capon from the oven and cover it tightly with heavy foil. Let it stand for 20 minutes to let the juices flow back into the tissues. Place it on a cutting board.
Pour the liquid from the baking pan, along with the olives and onions, into a small saucepan. Place the saucepan in the freezer for about 10 minutes, so that the fat can quickly rise to the top. (This makes it easier to remove.)
To serve: Skim off the fat and reheat the sauce. Discard the onion and parsley from the cavity. Cut the breast into thin slices and serve with the sauce. Makes 10 to 12 servings.

Set Of 3Lb Weights For My Wife

They have a great grip.
Just what I was looking for
By Petite Kathy
from Falls Church, VA
About Me Frequent Exerciser
I needed "in-between" weights; ones that I can use more for core strengthening vs. weight building. I found the 3 lb weights to be the best for me for repetitive motion exercises. I can use them without making my muscles too sore. I use these weights daily and find that the results are what I was looking for.

Great lightweight weight!
By NJ/LA Bicoastal Mom Getting Fit
from Montclair, NJ/ West Hollywood, CA
Love the weight! Great color, grip and coating. But WHY aren't they sold as pairs? Duh! It's the only reason why I gave it three stars...

Stephen Lynn Kraft
Stephen Lynn Kraft, known to most as Steve or "Grumpa," passed away at his home in Cortez on Nov. 27, 2012, at the age of 75 years old. Steve was born the first of three children on Aug. 7, 1937, to Carl Emery Kraft and Ina Mildred Hawkins in Clinton, Ill.
After graduating from Kremling Union High School in 1955 he entered the United States Air Force. He served for six years and while stationed in Roswell, N.M. he met the love of his life, Delilah Najar. They were joined in marriage May 1, 1959. By the next year they welcomed their first son. In 1962 they moved to Denver where their four other children were born. In 1982 they moved to Cortez where they raised their three youngest children.
Steve ran his own business, Raintight Seamless Gutters, and all the while enjoyed golfing, hunting, fishing, going to the casino and all Colorado-related sports. Being an avid Broncos fan, his family grew up with a passion for the Broncos. Steve loved having his family over so he could barbecue his famous ribs. He loved his family very much and often bragged of them to others.
Steve is survived by his children, Stephen C. Kraft and wife Brenda of Alamosa, Colo., Karen L. Randolph and husband John of Cortez, DeIna S. Robson and husband Robert of Cortez, Randell Ray Kraft of Mesa, Ariz.; and Joni L. White and husband Bruce of Cortez. He is also survived by his brother, Ron Kraft of Cortez; 12 grandchildren; and by 12 great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by both his parents; his brother, Roger Kraft; and by his loving wife, Delilah Kraft.
There will be a small private gathering of family on Saturday, Dec. 8. To send condolences, log onto www.ertelfuneralhome.com.
