When Calgon
won't cut it...
Monday, May 17, 2004By the end of the weekend we were plastered with stickers labeled "technical difficulties". The kids spilled coffee on our notebook's keyboard for the second time in two weeks; Moving a pack rat happy relative out of their home wasn't just an adventure - but actually drew some blood; And our dog broke his impeccable house training for the first time in over a year. Most of the time, a luxurious bubble bath helps remedy days like these, but sometimes it piles so high all that's left to do is to treat yourself to a great escape. Revel in the natural beauty, luxurious spa services and award winning menus at the CuisinArt Resort & Spa in Anguilla, and you're guaranteed to leave with a renewed outlook on how beautiful life can be. With 93 ocean-view rooms and suites ranging from 900 to 7,500 square feet, one of CuisinArt's crown jewels is The Venus Spa. It's the only full-service luxury resort spa on the island of Anguilla overlooking lush grounds and aquamarine waters, featuring five treatment rooms and the Rusk® Hair Salon. And did we mention the food? The CuisinArt Resort's Chefs are world renowned, formerly creating culinary delights at the the Four Seasons Hotel's Truffles in Toronto while another holds the high honor of having received 3 Michelin stars every year since 1965! The resort also grows its' own produce, free of pollutants and global jet lag, on its' own Hydroponic Farm. Book your dream adventure in the Jr. Suite category through December 15th, 2004, and you'll receive a special discounted rate of $275 per room, per night, when you stay 5 or more nights. And leave the Calgon at home ;) |

The Hollywood
Skinny
The Weekend EditionProof that a healthy lifestyle truly works lies with the image of those who've used it. When we saw that Uma Thurman, Angelina Jolie and Lucy Lui are thanking their stunning figures in part to Los Angeles based "Healthy Caterer," NutriFit, we paid instant attention. If you live in the area, NutriFit is the buzz word for having tasty meals delivered to your home at an average of $40/day. What we love is that their system doesn't leave you craving a major food group. It's based on sensible, delicious foods like Rosemary Scented Lamb, Mocha Cheesecake and Portobello Mushroom Omelets. Vivica A. Fox states she lost 30 pounds and went from a size 8 to 4 using NutriFit. Not in L.A.? You'll find a growing selection of products available through their online store including educational items and Uma's favorite, Chocolate Energy Bars ($18.95 for a dozen). |

Spade Style
Files
Monday, April 19, 2004Queen of tasteful handbags and shoes, designer Kate Spade's trio of hardcover books were created to inspire your own personal style. Manners ($14) provides a birds-eye view of why kindness is so important to Kate and offers ideas about etiquette in lighthearted but down-to-earth terms. Important questions you may have had stored in the back of your mind are answered, such as: When is it polite to correct someone's mispronunciation of your name? And what if you can't see over the head of the person who has just sat in front of you at the theater? In Occasions, ($14) Kate invites you into her world of easy, festive entertaining, where the emphasis is not on "the perfect meal" but on having "the perfect time." Style ($14) is an upbeat and engaging book where the designer not only talks about the many people and experiences that have inspired her own style, but you'll also find a great section devoted to the colors Kate most loves and suggestions for combining them. |
