Quote of the Month

A holiday miracle would be still fitting into my clothes after the holidays.

Friends and loved ones who gather at Christmas time will see holly wreaths and on mantles, its image on cards, stockings and presents.

As it has done every winter since long before the Roman conquest, holly will work its magic, evoking feelings of tradition and spreading cheer. In forests and in yards, the berries are appreciated by robins, bluebirds and mockingbirds. Hardy as the bushes are, they can thrive in a city's salt and exhaust.

"There's something magical about holly, especially this time of year," says William N. (Bill) Kuhl, an expert on the species who has done his part to preserve this Yuletide tradition for the past 40 years. His nursery has hundreds of holly trees, many 70 and 80 years old and in more than 100 varieties.

An old English carol claims holly has "prickles as sharp as thorns, bark as bitter as gall, and berries as bright as life-giving blood." But to

Technology has entered the world of fast food dining. Some patrons are calling it the "robot restaurant."

The co-founder of this San Francisco restaurant, Tim Young, says, "What we've designed creates a sense of mystery, a sense of intrigue."

After customers punch in and pay for their orders on one of nine iPads, they can choose from ingredients like lemon-herb toasted quinoa and many other choices. Screens summon them to a nearby wall of cubbies that flashes their names (taken from their credit cards). It instructs them to "tap twice" to pick up their food. No humans can be seen. Many customers record each step, relaying their experience to friends and followers on Facebook.

The restaurant, Eatsa, and its sci-fi aesthetic is definitely intriguing, but it's not exactly new. Young and his founding team have built a cashless 21st century version of the Horn & Hardart automat. They were early 20th century cafeterias where people could survey dishes placed in windowed compartments and pop in a nickel to serve themselves a helping of pie or macaroni and cheese.

Decorate outdoors with holly ... for the birds

those who love it, like gardeners, growers, retailers and botanists who belong to the Holly Society, it's endlessly fascinating. It's attractive in unique ways, blending dark and bright, the harsh and the inviting.

Boost your longevity by exercising ... just a little With Help You Can Really Declutter your Home

Called "The Queen of Clean" New York's Barbara Reich, simplifies decluttering projects for others by having categories they can use, according to AARP.

� Give. Pass family heirlooms to your kids as holiday or birthday gifts, except for things that have significantly increased by value, such as art work or a vintage sports car. Leave it to an heir in your will so a receiver doesn't have to pay capital gains taxes.

� Sell. Beyond garage sales, there are consignment shops and the Internet. Fairly new electronics like cellphones bring money on uSell and Gazelle. A used book store can determine the value of your books.

� Liquidate. A liquidator will run an estate sale. Julie Hall of the American Society of Estate Liquidators suggests interviewing several. Hall is the author of The Boomer Burden: Dealing With Your Parents' Lifetime Accumulation of Stuff. Ask for references, fees (an average of 35 percent) and a copy of the contract.

� Trash it. Before renting a dumpster, call a junk hauler or local bulk-trash pick up service and drag your trash bags to the curb. Don't include electronics, which contain heavy metals. Some recycling sites charge a few dollars for handling old computers and such, but at least they aren't damaging the landfill.

Keeping your home decluttered

Get a label maker. Label storage drawers so you and your family know what's in them. Use trash bags. Collect items you'll donate. Then be sure to do it. File folders. Keep categories broad. Narrow categories make filing hard. Get nice storage boxes. Use for items you want to access. They can be stacked, labeled and displayed.

If you're pushing age 60, more or less, and have a sedentary lifestyle, you are among the group of people who would benefit most from doing a little exercise. Join that group if you have important things to do over the next 10 years.

Nine studies, which included 122,000people, were recently analyzed for the British Journal of Sports Medicine. The researchers concluded that over a 10-year period, those starting to do a very modest amount of exercise benefited the most. They were 22 percent less likely to die during the study.

Those who exercised two to three times more than that gained only another 6 percent reduction in mortality and those who exercised the most had a 7 percent increase over them.

To convey a simple and attractive message, study authors recommend

about 15 minutes of moderate exercise, such as walking, five days a week.

The Perfect Holiday Drink Swedish Glogg for all! Your genes don't have to come from Nordic stock to enjoy the heavenly aroma and taste of a hot, mulled wine after a day of shopping, putting up the Christmas tree, hanging strings of lights on the house, skiing or shoveling out from the last storm.

Whether you make the glogg (pronounced glooog and meaning ‘glow') for two or 20, it will warm your body and soul.

King Gustav I Vasa of Sweden loved "glodgad vin" (glowing hot wine) way back in 1609. In 1755,0 Samuel Johnson, who published the first English-language dictionary said, “Claret is the drink for boys, port for men, but he who aspires to be a hero must drink brandy." Gloggs have brandy.

Swedish glogg contains brandy or caraway vodka. The Finnish gluggi uses vodka, the French vin chaud uses cognac, the Irish use Irish whiskey, the English wassail uses ale, the Germans and Austrians gluhwein, often served at their Christmas markets.

Traditional Swedish Glogg Ingredients (4 servings) � 2 1/2 cups water � 3/4 cup golden raisins � 2 teaspoons whole cloves

� 1 tablespoon whole cardamom seeds or 2 pods cracked open)

� 1 3-inch stick cinnamon � 1/2 cup sugar � 1/4 cup blanched almonds (raw, no

skin) � 2 bottles dry red wine (750 ml each). � Use burgundy or port. � Brandy to taste (optional)

Tie the cloves and cardamom pods in a cheesecloth bag. Add to the water, raisins and almonds in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 30 minutes.

Remove and discard the spice bag. Strain the raisins and almonds from the liquid and save.

Stir in sugar until dissolved with the wine in a larger pot. Reheat to a simmer. (do not boil). Serve in mugs with a few raisins and almonds.

You can prepare the spiced water mixture early in the day for a larger gathering. Fill a decorative bowl with the raisins and almonds. Just before guests arrive, reheat the mixture in a larger pot, add the wine and simmer. Serve from an electric slow cooker (on low) or at the stove. Add brandy for those who want it.

Big City Fun with a Small Town Feel Grand Rapids, Michigan By Neilia Sherman

Education Requirements Rise for Nurses Many thousands of Americans entered nursing schools in the last decade hoping for a high-paying job with a two-year degree. Now they find that hospitals want nurses with more advanced degrees, partly in response to a more complex health-care system.

The trend is also seen in sectors like manufacturing and office administration, which are demanding more education and skills than in the past. As the number of job candidates with bachelor's degrees rose during the recession, employers began expecting degrees for positions that once didn't require them.

Such "upskilling" was particularly intense in nursing, which saw a flood of new entrants in the last decade. The number of nursing programs of all kinds rose by 41 percent between 2002 and 2012 when it was widely perceived that there was a shortage of nurses.

According to the journal Nursing Economics, during that period the ranks of young registered nurses with four-year degrees swelled about 80 percent. The number of nurses over age 50 doubled as they stayed on the job.

I realize that Grand Rapids, Michigan isn’t on most people’s list of top ten cities to visit.

But that is precisely what makes it a great spot for tourists. It isn’t overcrowded or expensive or spread out and you don’t go there with unreachably high expectations. Then, when you find fabulous restaurants and great attractions like I did, you are that much happier.

Here is my list of things that you “must do” when you visit Grand Rapids.

1. Go to the Gerald R. Ford Museum.

Yes, Grand Rapids is ex-President Ford’s hometown. This place has the tools from the Watergate break-in, letters attacking Ford for pardoning Nixon, details on the popular first lady Betty Ford and lots of neat 70’s artifacts for baby-boomers to pour over.

2. Walk through Heritage Hills and tour the Meyer May House.

This enclave of lovely mansions is a remnant of the era when Grand Rapids was the center of furniture manufacturing for the USA and is now a national historic district. You must visit Meyer May house. Commissioned by local merchant, Meyer May, this 1908 masterpiece of the Prairie-style design is one of the most complete restorations of a Frank Lloyd Wright house in existence.

3. Don’t leave Grand Rapids without eating tapas at San Chez.

I absolutely loved this restaurant! The cuisine is Spanish with a Latin and Cuban flair. The servers were extremely knowledgeable to the point where they can explain the minute details of every dish on the menu. You order a bunch of things and everyone gets to try them.

4. Party at the BOB, which stands for Big Old Building – isn’t that cute?

A multi-faceted entertainment center and restaurant complex featuring five restaurants, a Microbrewery, a nightclub, a comedy club, a 2,500 bottle wine cellar, billiards and private rooms.

5. Spend at least a day at the beautiful, fun, and educational Fredrick Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park.

This place boasts one of the largest children’s gardens in the USA and the whole family will enjoy it. I know that I must return with my kids who would love the fact that everything that is normally off limits is meant to be touched, smelled, climbed/and or played with.

6. Stay at or at least check out the historic Amway Grand Plaza Hotel.

Originally opened in 1913, this one-of-a-kind hotel overlooks the Grand River and has one half that has preserved its ornate historic character while the other half, located in the Glass Tower, is ultra-modern.

7. Have a martini or some delicious appetizers at the Bar Divani.

Divani is Hindi for being crazy in love and you’re sure to fall in love with this place.

8. Learn about Grand Rapids history at the Van Andel Museum Center.

Here you can ride the working 1928 Carousel; walk through a 19th century Grand Rapids Cityscape, and check out The Furniture City exhibit, which traces the history of Grand Rapid’s Furniture Makers from the mid-1800’s to the 1960’s.

9. Take a drive to Grand Haven, a charming coastal town with a long boardwalk and a great view of Lake Michigan.

Here you can go sailing with the hospitable crew of the Wind Dancer, a schooner that offers three daily sails in the summer.

10.If you’re ready to move on to another interesting American city ”don’t drive” take the new Express Ferry from Muskegon to Milwaukee.

Lake Express began service on June 1, 2004, linking the states of Michigan and Wisconsin with terminals in Muskegon and Milwaukee.

There are so many great restaurants to sample, places to go shopping that I did not get to and everything on my list takes time to explore adequately. I won’t be surprised if there is even more going on in Grand Rapids by the time I return.
