Chatelaine

Who wore what? Who wore it best? We have the top 10 best dresses from last night's Golden Globes.

Astrologers explain why you should relax; why married men are better behaved; carrots make you prettier; the truth about collagen cream; and who won what at last night’s Golden Globe Awards.

I did not know what brisket was. I had a faint inkling that it was a type of meat, likely from a four-legged mammal, but I did not know that it was a cut of beef. I would hear the word ‘brisket’ and a child-like song would echo in my head, “A brisket, a basket, a green and yellow basket” or something like that. But thanks to a few keystrokes into a search engine I quickly discovered that a) brisket is one of the eight primal cuts of beef and is from the breast area and b) the nursery rhyme I had ringing in my head was “A Tisket A Tasket.” Oops.

Every day that passes is another day closer to my new life as a civilian. Even though I know it's coming (in a very short amount of time!) I feel scared to do anything that actually verifies my move. That includes the purchase of my new bicycle.

With so much snow on the ground right now, it's hard to fathom the idea of purchasing a pair of strappy sandals. But Spring has arrived (at least in the stores anyway), and how better to toast the season than with a new pair of shoes.
