from the 

editor 

Hello 2018!!! 

Every January many of my friends make ‘Resolutions’ 

I, instead make a list of 10 things I’d like to 

accomplish that year. One task is easy (organize 

closet, or make doctor’s appointments), one is almost 

impossible (win the Powerball), and the rest range 

from 3-9 in degree of difficulty (eat more meals at 

home, travel internationally, call distant family members). This 

year I have decided to only make ONE... Be Kinder. In 2018 I will 

strive everyday to be kind in every aspect of my life. I promise to be 

kinder to myself, family, friends, and even strangers. My hope is that 

consciously making an effort to be kind will help me see the kindness in 

others, and those lacking kindness may see it in me. 

Which leads me to our January City Person Carol Eaton - Delray 

Beach’s own Mother Teresa. The love and generosity of this woman is 

immeasurable. She gives all of herself to family and community. Her 

philanthropy reaches all across Delray - we are lucky she chooses to live 

in our City by the Sea. 

And speaking of Luck... We can all use a little bit of luck, right? Some 

cultures believe that eating certain foods in January can help make the 

new year a little luckier! Check out ‘10 Good Luck Foods’ and see if 

anything appeals to you! I plan on eating them all for better odds! 

Did Santa bring anyone an engagement ring for Christmas? Weddings 

are no longer ho-hum ceremonies with predictable receptions. Read all 

about the top 5 new ‘Wedding Trends’ for 2018 in our Special Features. 

If you’re planning on travelling in 2018 - think about exploring the United 

Kingdom. London is a popular city - but there are other less known parts of 

the UK with many hidden treasures ready 

to be discovered. ‘8 Great Places To Visit 

In The UK After London’ will suggest a few 

of these destinations. 

All of us at Atlantic Ave Magazine 

wish everyone a year filled with health, 

wealth, happiness, and above all love. 

Learn from 

yesterday, 

live for 

today, 

hope for 

tomorrow...

Delray Chamber 

Leads Group 

Sets Record For 

Collaboration 

The Greater Delray Beach Chamber of 

Commerce boasts many reasons why 

businesses should join and participate, but 

one of the organization’s Leads Groups, the 

Delray Business Partners, can give thousands 

of reasons for joining. 

Leads Groups are entities within the 

Chamber comprised of local business people 

who share a simple belief—they can 

be more successful together than on their 

own. Through leads, referrals, sharing of 

best practices and encouraging each other, 

each group builds a network of trust and 

confidence that helps its members thrive. 

Under the leadership of Jessica Rosato, 

Chairman of the Delray Business Partners 

Leads Group, the group has set a record 

for collaboration with one another. During 

2017, the 30 members of the Delray 

Business Partners generated more than 

$150,000 of gross sales dollars by doing 

business with one another as well as by referring 

colleagues to potential clients. 

Diana Hileman of Hileman Law states, 

“People prefer to do business with people 

they know, like and trust and this group 

certainly provides the means through 

which to do that. I have received many referrals 

from our Delray Business Partner 

members and certainly appreciate their 

confidence in my business.” 

According to Ms. Rosato, “Chamber leads 

groups allow members to develop strong 

relationships with their counterparts in a 

variety of other businesses. At each meeting, 

members are encouraged to exchange 

business leads—potential clients or customers 

for other members of the group. In 

effect, their contacts become your contacts; 

their customers can become your customers. 

Members also rotate making short presentations 

about their businesses.” 

For information about the Greater Delray 

Chamber of Commerce and Leads Groups,

ext. 106 or visit http://www.delraybeach.

Yaffa & Associates 

Gives Back 

We often get so involved in everyday 

life that we forget about the less fortunate. 

Reflecting back on 2017, we at Yaffa 

must say how proud we are of our team at 

Yaffa & Associates for giving back. Although 

our team is small and intimate, our giving 

goals are mighty. During 2017 we particicontinued

pated in fundraising walks, we donated to 

Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma, we 

donated our time to United Way and American 

Red Cross. We all understand that giving 

back to our community is one of the 

most important things we can do. We are 

so proud of our team and we are already 

planning our 2018 giving goals! Have you 

started to plan yours?

knowledge in sports injuries and orthopedics 

maladies. He is a graduate of the University 

of Florida in Gainesville, he then attended 

Parker University in Dallas, TX where he 

received his Doctorate in Chiropractic. He 

looks forward to bringing his passion and 

expertise back to the community. 

Delray Beach 

Housing Authority 

Releases 2017 

Annual Report 

The Housing Group (Delray Beach Housing 

Authority (DBHA) and its nonprofit 

The Delray Housing Group) has released its 

2017 Annual Report. 

This report to the DBHA Board of Commissioners 

and the community highlight 

a few stories of the 52 families enrolled in 

the Family Self Sufficiency program, most 

of whom are actively working on goals to 

purchase homes, earn technical or college 

degrees, secure higher paying jobs or to 

simply learn valuable life skills such as financial 

literacy and the importance of improved 

credit scores. 

The stories in the Annual Report include 

the opening of Village Square Family Development, 

which was a major milestone 

in the redevelopment of that neighborhood 

into a viable, mixed income community. 

The completion of the West Settlers’ 

Mixed-Use building is another example of 

fulfilling the goal of expanding affordable 

housing within the City of Delray Beach. 

According to Dorothy Ellington, President 

and CEO of the Delray Beach Housing 

Authority, “In 2017, we saw much progress. 

We were also hard at work on new ideas, 

planning and partnerships to meet future 

challenges and to brighten the stories of all 

those we serve at The Housing Group.”

Feinstein Dermatology & 

Cosmetic Surgery 

BY Bridgit Nolan, M.D., FAAD 

Board Certified DermaTOLOGIST 

My name is Bridgit Nolan and I recently moved to Delray Beach with 

my husband and one-year-old son, after spending several years 

in private practice in Miami. I completed my undergraduate education 

at Cornell University, where I earned a B.A., Summa Cum Laude. 

I am a Magna Cum Laude graduate of SUNY Upstate Medical University 

in Syracuse, New York, and completed my dermatology residency at the 

University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. I am Board Certified by the 

American Board of Dermatology and am highly trained in medical, cosmetic 

and surgical dermatology. In addition to providing medical dermatology 

for patients of all ages, I specialize in early skin cancer detection and 

treatment. I also have particular expertise in cosmetic procedures such 

as Botox®, fillers, and anti-aging skin care. In May I joined the Feinstein 

Dermatology team, where I am dedicated to providing the highest standard 

in dermatological care and to helping patients look and feel their best! I am 

involved in our community’s health system as a consulting dermatologist 

at Delray Medical Center. In my free time, I enjoy traveling and spending 

time with my family. Please call to schedule an appointment.

Dentistry, D.M.D. 

BY Dr. Zarina Staller 

My name is Dr. Zarina Staller and my passion as a dentist is 

simple — it’s about helping people. Having grown up in a family 

filled with dental health professionals, I saw from a young age 

how dentistry can dramatically and powerfully change someone’s life. 

I am a proud graduate of the Colegio Odontologico in Bogota, Colombia 

where I received my Doctorate of Dental Surgery. I went on to attend 

Nova Southeastern University School of Dental Medicine in Davie, 

earning my Doctorate of Dental Medicine in 2000 with honors. Fast 

forward to today, and I am the proud owner of Zarina Staller Dentistry, 

D.M.D in beautiful Delray Beach where patients are comforted in a relaxed 

elegance during every visit. I believe in conservative dental care 

to protect and maintain as much of your natural smile as possible for 

care that’s minimally invasive and sensible. I practice all phases of 

dentistry, but place greater emphasis on cosmetic treatments, smile 

enhancements, and implant reconstruction. My office is state-of-theart 

with the most advanced dental technology available. My team 

doesn’t just change smiles, we change lives with a kind of care that’s 

compassionate, gentle, and personally yours. Come see for yourself!

My name is Mary Timmons and I attended UCLA and graduated 

from Pennsylvania State University. I have been a homeowner 

in East Delray Beach for 11 years. My original line of work 

was promoting rock stars as Director of Publicity with Atlantic Records 

and then, as Executive Director at The Townwide Fund of Huntington, 

where I raised tens of thousands of dollars for Long Island Charities. 

My passion for the last 5 years has been caring for pets, although I do 

have lifelong experience in caring for family and friends’ pets and that 

is why I started Hello Mimi. I have 2 cats of my own that I adore, Kitty 

and Jilly. I offer an honest and reliable overnight pet care/sitting in the 

comfort and privacy of the pets’ home and backyard. I also love to play 

tennis which I am currently teaching to my great nieces and nephews. I 

love to cook and entertain for my large family as well as my dear friends

CARE FOR YOU & 

YOUR SMILE? 

Here’s what your neighbors are saying: 

“When you walk into the office, you would never know it was a 

dental practice. It actually reminded me of and really felt like I was 

at a luxurious spa. The entire staff was so professional. Dr. Staller 

explained what she was going to do to me in terms I could 

understand. She worked with me at my pace and immediately 

gained my trust. This is why I highly recommend such a quality 

practice. I am so thankful for all the care and personal attention 

I received.” - MILLICENT (Ft. Lauderdale, Actual Review)

Years later, my love for helping 

nervous patients feel comfortable 

going to the dentist and maintaining 

their dental care remains at the 

heart of everything I do.

locals only | delray under $50 

By Darien Davies 

Delray Under $50 

Now that Delray Beach is a rising star in the art, culture and social scene, 

it might seem a little difficult to find affordable activities, shops or 

restaurants. I am here to prove you wrong. Delray Beach 

offers a mix of high-end boutiques with laid-back 

restaurants, and events for the whole family or 

nightclubs for night owls. Here is what you can do 

in Delray Beach in January for $50 or less. 

It’s the first art festival of the year and it’s so exciting! January is 

International Creativity Month, and what better way to begin the 

next 365 days than with your creativity cap and complete opportunity. 

If you need a little help getting your synapses firing, head 

down to the 29th Annual Delray Beach Festival of the Arts on January 

20 and 21. It’s a great way to peruse the creative designs of artists 

from around the nation and get an idea of all the possibilities that 

could be. This Festival is ranked as one of the top fine art festival in 

the country by Sunshine Artist Magazine, and it’s easy to see why. 

There’s a mile-long worth of artists that feature everything from 

painting, sculpture, woodworking, jewelry, arts and crafts, exterior 

art, homemade soaps, unique clothing, and more. There is absolutely 

something for everyone, including those who just want to enjoy 

strolling down the Avenue people watching. The Festival is held on 

Atlantic Avenue from North Federal Highway to A1A from 10a.m. to 

5p.m. on both Saturday and Sunday. Admission is free so that please 

plenty of cash for you to get creative with, and for you to stop in to 

one of the local restaurants for a cocktail (just to energize you for 

more walking, of course). You might even find something for your 

home or office that will remind you to be creative throughout the 

year. The possibilities are endless! Visit www.artfestival.com or call 

(561) 746-6615 for more information. 

The events are a great showcase for our local businesses, and you’ll 

also be privy to the hottest styles for 2018. It’s a celebration of life that 

will last all year long! Events are held throughout downtown and general 

admission/viewing is free. Visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com 

or call (561) 243-1077 for more information. 

Having limitless possibilities and opportunities is kind of stressful. 

The “what if’s” are always around, and always will be, so 

the best bet is to just pick the first option and run with it. Much 

like you picked to live in Delray! If you are interested in re-finding 

what you love about this city, hit the streets and wander around. January 

is International Wayfinding Month and is a great time to enjoy all 

the things great about downtown. Wayfinding encompasses all of the 

ways in which people orient themselves in physical space and navigate 

from place to place, so let’s orient ourselves on the Avenue. Grab 

your bike (or rent one from Richwagen’s) and bike along A1A, rid- 

We made it another year! Even though every day should be a 

celebration, it’s easy to get caught up in the alarm of work, 

social, and extracurricular life. But, have no fear, there is a 

week-long celebration in your honor, where you are able to find a little 

more fanciness to make your life a little more fun. January is Celebration 

of Life Month and is a perfect time to celebrate your look, which 

is where the Fifth Annual Delray Beach Fashion Week comes in. Held 

January 24 through 28, you are invited to experience five days of beauty, 

style and fashion (oh my!). Downtown Delray Beach’s designers are 

business owners are the star of the show, with different events each 

day: Opening Night Evening Wear Runway Fashion Show on Wednesday, 

January 24; Delray on the Runway Designer Fashion Show and 

Hair Show on Thursday, January 25; Tropical Paradise Luncheon and 

Fashion Show and the Vince Canning Stiletto Race on Friday, January 

26; Swim and Surf Runway Fashion Show on Saturday, January 27; and 

Fashion Week Boutique pop-up shopping event on Sunday, January 28. 


ing over at least the George Bush or Atlantic Avenue bridges for 

the elevated sights. Stop at North End and walk north, checking 

out all of the boats and kiteboarders, and chill out on the sand 

and in the ocean for a while. Grab a Peroni at Caffe Luna Rosa 

afterward and then head West as you window shop all of our 

local merchants. Stop at Veteran’s Park to check out the boats 

and kids playing in the playground. It’ll feel good to swing on the 

swing set, so don’t pass up the opportunity. Continue west and 

head to the Arts District where you can view the work of our local 

artists. You might be thirsty so find your way to Park Tavern 

for a draft beer and some shade, not to mention more people 

watching at Worthing Park. There is so much to do in Delray and 

all it takes is your feet. Enjoy finding your way in Delray, you 

local you. Visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com or call (561) 

243-1077 for a complete list of local hotspots. 

Let’s be honest, the holidays are expensive. It might take a 

couple months to get caught up from presents, traveling 

and treating yo’self, but you still want to enjoy the weather, 

the New Year, and your weekends. Do not fret, Old School 

Square to the rescue! January is Financial Wellness Month and, 

on top of making a plan for maximizing and improving your savings 

for the year, is a great time to make sense of your dollars 

and cents. So, when they offer their Free Friday Concerts and 

you’re telling me that I can be entertained for $0, I’m in. The 

month-long fun features Tony Succar & The Mixtura Band (Latin 

flavor with a small tribute to Michael Jackson) Friday, January 

5; The Kinected (pop/electro/Indie rock) on Friday, January 12; 

Artikal Sound System (reggae/R&B) on Friday, January 19; and 

the B Street Band (Bruce Springsteen tribute) on Friday, January 

26. All shows begin at 7:30 p.m. and you’re invited to bring lawn 

chairs and a blanket, but no coolers or pets. Keeping track of 

your finances has never been this fun. The Concerts are held at 

the Old School Square Pavilion at 51 N. Swinton Ave. Visit www. 

oldschool.org or call (561) 243-7922 for more information. 

It’s all about balance (and moderation, if you ask my aunt), 

so let’s balance out the past month with this month. It’s no 

secret that we spent that month of December (aka the holidays) 

drinking and eating everything within arm’s length, and 

that we are toying with the idea of dieting on water and lemons 

until we lose our Santa’s-helper shape. But, it doesn’t have to 

be that horrendous. January is Get a Balance Life Month and 

thankfully the good people at PurGreens have it all figured out 

for us. They focus on healthy food that can be served in a quick, 

engaging way for active, on-the-go guests, so it’s perfect for a 

quick lunch or post- or pre-workout snack. You can be certain 

that you will leave with zero guilt regardless of what menu 

item you order, which is because each dish was intentionally 

created for nutrition and flavor. Sink your teeth into the roasted 

sweet potato and chipotle black been collard green wrap ($11), 

the cranberry walnut chickpea salad ($4/$7) or their Power 

Bowl, with quinoa, ancient rice, carrots, almonds, cabbage, goat 

cheese, golden raisins and homemade pesto for $10.70. They 

also serve soups, breakfast items, shakes, acai bowls, dragon 

bowls, 2 oz./4 oz. booster shots. It’s almost as if you can balance 

out your holidays with one visit (well, kind of), but it’s so good 

you’ll keep coming back for more. PurGreens is located at 45 

N.E. Second Ave. Visit www.purgreensdelray.com or call (561) 

276-7387 for more information.

Delray Artists Showcase Talents At Art Basel 

Some hometown artists were able to 

make their dreams become a reality. 

For any aspiring or renowned artist, 

being able to display your artwork at 

Art Basel is an once-in-a-lifetime experience. 

Art Basel has become the premier 

art show located in Miami Beach. It provides 

a platform for galleries and artists 

to showcase their work, and sell their art 

to collectors, museum directors and curators. 

Art Basel also attracts art lovers 

from around the world. 

At this year’s event, local artists displayed 

their artwork at the new installation, 

Trackside. The warehouse offered 

mural space for many local artists. This 

was made possible with the help of John 

Griffin and Glayson LeRoy of Galera Collective, 

along with Ron Bloomberg of Bloomberg 

Equities LLC. The goal of Galera Collective 

is to create a living creative space 

where artists and entrepreneurs find the 

convenience and support needed to fuel 

their creative and start up passions! 

We are proud of our Delray Beach 

grown artists! 

Glayson LeRoy, John Griffin, and 

graffitti icon Lady Pink. Mural 

painted by Muck Rock (who also 

painted the Space Pug in Delray)

Insidious: The Last Key is the fourth 

entry of the Insidious series, directed by 

Adam Robitel and with Chapter 3 director 

Leigh Whannell providing the script, centering 

around the brilliant parapsychologist 

Elise Rainier (Lin Shaye) who ends up 

being terrorized in her own home by the 

demons that have been haunting houses 

ever since Insidious in 2010. 

Molly’s Game is based on the true story 

of Molly Bloom, an Olympic-class skier who 

ran the world’s most exclusive high-stakes 

poker game for a decade before being arrested 

in the middle of the night by 17 FBI 

agents wielding automatic weapons. Jessica 

Chastain plays Molly and also stars Idris 

Elba, Chris O’Dowd, Kevin Costner, Michael 

Cera, Natalie Krill, Joe Keery, Bill Camp, and 

plenty of others. 


The Commuter sees Liam Neeson play 

Michael, an insurance salesman who gets 

mixed up in a criminal conspiracy on his 

daily train commute home. Vera Farmiga, 

a “mysterious stranger,” sits with him for 

a chat and things get very interesting. The 

cast includes Patrick Wilson, Killian Scott, 

Jonathan Banks, Sam Neill, Elizabeth Mc- 

Govern, Florence Pugh, and Damson Idris. 

This looks like it has tons of action and will 

be intense to watch! Directed by veteran 

Spanish filmmaker Jaume Collet-Serra. 

Paddington 2 finds Paddington happily 

settled with the Brown family in Windsor 

Gardens. He gets a series of odd jobs to 

buy the perfect present (a unique pop-up 

book) for his Aunt Lucy’s 100th birthday, 

only for the gift to be stolen. It’s up to Paddington 

and the Browns to unmask the 

thief... The very British cast includes Hugh 

Grant, Brendan Gleeson, Peter Capaldi, Sally 

Hawkins, Julie Walters, Jim Broadbent, 

and Hugh Bonneville, with Ben Whishaw 

returning as the voice of Paddington, and 

Imelda Staunton as the voice of Aunt Lucy. 

Proud Mary Taraji P. Henson is Mary, an 

assassin working for an organized crime 

family in Boston, whose life is completely 

turned around when she meets a young 

boy whose path she crosses when a professional 

hit goes bad. Directed by Iranian 

filmmaker Babak Najafi and the cast 

includes Neal McDonough, Danny Glover, 

Xander Berkeley and more. 


12 Strong is a powerful new war drama 

based on the best-selling book “Horse Soldiers.” 

It is story of the first Special Forces 

team deployed to Afghanistan after 9/11; 

under the leadership of a new captain, the 

team must work with an Afghani warlord 

to take down the Taliban. Chris Hemsworth 

(“Thor,” “The Avengers” films) and Oscar 

nominee Michael Shannon (“Revolutionary 

Road,” “Nocturnal Animals”) star. 

Den of Thieves is a gritty Los Angeles 

crime saga which follows the intersecting 

and often personally connected lives of an 

elite unit of the LA County Sheriff’s Department 

and the state’s most successful 

bank robbery crew as the outlaws plan a 

seemingly impossible heist on the Federal 

Reserve Bank of downtown Los Angeles. 

From writer/director Christian Gudegast 

and starring Gerard Butler, 50 Cent, 

Pablo Schreiber and more. 

Forever My Girl tells the 

story of country music superstar 

Liam Page (Alex Roe) who 

left his bride, Josie (Jessica 

Rothe), at the altar choosing 

fame and fortune instead. 

However, Liam never got 

over Josie, his one true love, 

nor did he ever forget his 

Southern roots in the small 

community where he was 

born and raised. When he 

unexpectedly returns to his 

hometown for the funeral of 

his high school best friend, 

Liam is suddenly faced with 

the consequences of all that 

he left behind. 


Maze Runner: The Death 

Cure is the epic finale to the 

Maze Runner saga. Thomas 

(Dylan O’Brien) leads his group of escaped 

Gladers on their final and most dangerous 

mission yet. To save their friends, they 

must break into the legendary Last City, a 

WCKD-controlled labyrinth that may turn 

out to be the deadliest maze of all. Anyone 

who makes it out alive will get answers to 

the questions the Gladers have been asking 

since they first arrived in the maze. Cast 

includes Kaya Scodelario, Walton Goggins, 

Nathalie Emmanuel.

Spring Forward (Mystic 

Creek Series #4) 

by Catherine Anderson 

Released January 2, 2018 

The New York Times bestselling author 

returns to Mystic Creek, Oregon, with a 

story about finding an unforgettable love just 

around the corner. . . 

When a favorite customer on his delivery 

route needs a favor, Tanner Richards agrees to 

help without a second thought. The last thing 

he expects is to face off against the man’s spitfire 

granddaughter. 

Crystal Malloy is near her breaking point. 

Her beloved grandfather constantly skirts 

the rules at the retirement center where he’s 

recovering from surgery. She’s caring for his 

escape artist dog, even if it means abandoning 

her salon customers, and she has no time 

for a romantic attraction to the handsome 

new stranger. 

After Tanner’s reassigned to Mystic Creek, 

Crystal can no longer ignore how much she 

misjudged the man’s good intentions. She 

has known too much sorrow to easily open 

her heart, but she can’t deny that Tanner and 

his children could gift her with a happiness 

beyond compare—if only she can forgive herself 

for the past and accept that she’s deserving 

of such a love. 

The Wife Between Us: 

A Novel 

by Greer Hendricks, Sarah Pekkanen 


When you read this book, you will make 

many assumptions. 

You will assume you are reading about a 

jealous ex-wife.

Treating People Well: 

The Extraordinary 

Power Of Civility At 

Work And In Life 

by Lea Berman, Jeremy Bernard, Laura 

Bush (FOREWORD by) 


guide to personal and professional empowerment 

through civility and social 

A 

skills, written by two White House Social Secretaries 

who offer an important fundamental 

message—everyone is important and everyone 

deserves to be treated well. 

Former White House social secretaries Lea 

Berman, who worked for George and Laura 

Bush, and Jeremy Bernard, who worked for 

Michelle and Barack Obama, have written an 

entertaining and uniquely practical guide to 

personal and professional success in modern 

life. Their daily experiences at 1600 Pennsylvania 

Avenue taught them valuable lessons 

about how to work productively with people 

from different walks of life and points of view. 

These Washington insiders share what they’ve 

learned through first person examples of their 

own glamorous (and sometimes harrowing) 

moments with celebrities, foreign leaders 

and that most unpredictable of animals—the 

American politician. 

This book is for you if you feel unsure of 

yourself in social settings, if you’d like to get 

along more easily with others, or if you want 

to break through to a new level of cooperation 

with your boss and coworkers. They give specific 

advice for how to exude confidence even 

when you don’t feel it, ways to establish your 

reputation as an individual whom people like, 

trust, and want to help, and lay out the specific 

social skills still essential to success - despite 

our increasingly digitized world. Jeremy and 

Lea prove that social skills are learned behavior 

that anyone can acquire, and tell the stories 

of their own unlikely paths to becoming the 

social arbiters of the White House, while providing 

tantalizing insights into the character of 

the first ladies and presidents they served. 

Carnegie’s Maid: 

A Novel 

by Marie Benedict 


From the author of “The Other Einstein,” the 

mesmerizing tale of what kind of woman 

could have inspired an American dynasty. 

Clara Kelley is not who they think she is. 

She’s not the experienced Irish maid who was 

hired to work in one of Pittsburgh’s grandest 

households. She’s a poor farmer’s daughter 

with nowhere to go and nothing in her pockets. 

But the other woman with the same name has 

vanished, and pretending to be her just might 

get Clara some money to send back home. 

If she can keep up the ruse, that is. Serving 

as a lady’s maid in the household of Andrew 

Carnegie requires skills he doesn’t have, answering 

to an icy mistress who rules her sons 

and her domain with an iron fist. What Clara 

does have is a resolve as strong as the steel 

Pittsburgh is becoming famous for, coupled 

with an uncanny understanding of business, 

and Andrew begins to rely on her. But Clara 

can’t let her guard down, not even when Andrew 

becomes something more than an employer. 

Revealing her past might ruin her future 

- and her family’s. 

With captivating insight and heart, Carnegie’s 

Maid tells the story of one brilliant woman 

who may have spurred Andrew Carnegie’s 

transformation from ruthless industrialist 

into the world’s first true philanthropist.

health & beauty | pain relief 

By Dr. Safranski 

Sports Chiropractic and You 

Top athletes choose chiropractic and you should too. Chiropractic has 

been around for over 100 years but it wasn’t until the early-to-mid 90s 

when athletes started using them to gain a competitive advantage. 

Functioning at the highest level without pain in order to maintain 

a long and productive career is important for top athletes. 

It’s their job, it’s how they support their families. So why do 

they choose chiropractic? Because they know it works, it’s not a 

fad or a trend that proper motion and biomechanics coupled with 

proper strength and muscle function in the body lead to a highly 

productive athlete. They want to perform at their very best on the 

field, the ice, and in the ring. All 32 NFL teams, 28 of the 30 MLB 

teams, and all 31 NHL teams have chiropractors on staff. Even the 

world’s best golfers have their own chiropractors. James Harrison 

of the Pittsburgh Steelers spent countless dollars to make sure that 

he is in tip-top shape, so that he can play every snap and be a leader 

on the field. That money includes his own chiropractor that travels 

with him throughout the season. 

Why is this? These teams know how imperative it is to have chiropractors 

as part of their medical team. Their knowledge of the 

musculoskeletal systems and the biomechanics that accompany 

each joint make them valuable assets to the teams. Team physicians 

and medical staff now know that masking pain with medication 

and inhibiting pain pathways is no longer the answer, and putting 

injured players back on the field can not only make matters worse 

but lead to much more serious injuries. 

Chiropractors have the ability to diagnose and treat these injures 

without drugs or surgery with sometimes instant results. This is 

an invaluable tool and making them a crucial piece to the medical 

team. The shift in conservative approaches to injury treatment is 

not only in sports; it is becoming more relevant in medicine as well. 

The option for surgery is now starting to become a last resort as 

the athletes, and everyday people become more educated on their 

bodies and the procedures it takes to fix injuries - looking for more 

conservative approaches that get results is making waves.(However, 

this is not true for all injuries, some require immediate surgery.) 

Sports chiropractic focuses on not only the spine, but the hands, 

feet, elbows, knees, shoulders, hips and all of the muscles and ligaments 

that go with it. However, the main focus of sports chiropractic 

is not really top-tier athletes, but it is to help your everyday 

athlete be able to attain their personal goals. There are high school 

football players aspiring to play college football, but have issues 

with knees. Consider basketball players who are having issues 

with their ankles. Golfers who want to improve their swing, or feel 

like they don’t hit the ball like they used to, or even if you’re trying 

to work through some arthritis. 

The same principles of sports chiropractic that are used on 

Olympians and professional athletes can be used on the everyday 

athlete from the young ones to the retired ones. Maintaining proper 

biomechanics in the spine as well as all other joints in your body 

accompanied by proper muscle strength and tone can make significant 

changes in your life and your workout routine. If you have a 

nagging injury, or feel like you could be doing more but you’ve tried 

everything, maybe it’s time to find a sports chiropractor.

The Silhouette Instalift 

A new alternative to injections and fillers 

Peering into the Fountain of Youth with a single wish in hand, most 

beauty seekers would go for a revitalized face. Loss of skin tone (facial 

sagging) and the stealthy appearance of wrinkles, lines and creases, are 

the main signs of facial aging, a natural process that worsens with time. 

This inevitable evolution is due to a loss of collagen and elastin, the 

providers of skin firmness. The face also loses fat, depleting volume 

and causing hollowness in the cheeks and a heaviness under the 

chin, thus, the arrival of “joules.” 

Up until recently, choices to restore facial volume were limited to injections 

called “fillers,” or more invasive surgical or ablative laser interventions. 

The cutting edge however now includes a wonderful alternative 

called The Silhouette Instalift. This is a self-dissolving suspension suture 

that is capable of providing volume, stimulating lost collagen 

production and actually repositioning skin. 

The Silhouette Instalift is a technological innovation offering 

both men and women a spectacular solution to a universal 

problem in a simple and minimally invasive way. The reshaping 

of the face and the restoration of lost volume are 

but thirty minutes away in the hands of a skilled cosmetic 

surgeon. By installing several of these absorbable 

sutures, the surgeon can literally redefine a face, 

restoring volume and gently lifting the skin. In 

this veritable new art form, the effects of aging 

are significantly reduced. 

The Silhouette Instalift leaves no scars 

and can be applied to all areas of the face 

and neck to restore youth and vitality. Recovery 

time is minimal and patients quickly 

return to normal activity and a full social life. 

The absorbable sutures are manufactured 

in the United States and are FDA approved. The 

treatments have been wildly popular in Europe, 

but are gaining momentum at home. In the last 

three years, more than 130,000 successful treatments 

have been accomplished worldwide. 

The faces of America will soon robustly 

plump up that number.

health & beauty | Your Dental Health 

By craig spodak, dmd, pa 

How To Choose The Right 

Dental Office In 2018 

Your dental team is 

key for maintaining 

a healthy smile. 

Let’s face it, there are dentists everywhere. There are offices 

that are family owned, corporately owned, or somewhere 

in between, and all would love to have you as their patient. 

Choosing a dental team is a very important decision because your 

dentist and hygienist do more than simply clean your teeth. There’s 

a myriad of additional factors they examine because they know that 

oral health is linked to overall health, which is why it’s important to 

visit them regularly. If you haven’t visited your dentist as much as 

you should, start by asking yourself why. If you find that you want 

to switch dentists in the New Year, have recently moved, or just 

want to evaluate your options, read on! 

Priorities 

What is most important to you? Are you looking for a dentist that 

offers evening and weekend hours, financing options, sleep dentistry 

(if you have dental anxiety) and/or up-front conversations about 

costs and benefits? Each dental office offers something just a little 

bit different, but that one main difference could be the factor that you 

need. The goal for your dental team is to help you keep your teeth 

for a lifetime and to put your oral health as their main concern. The 

office should make it as convenient as possible for you to visit them 

regularly, and work hard to honestly earn your trust and loyalty. 

Comprehensive Care 

It can be quite time consuming and frantic to visit several offices 

should you need additional work beyond a routine cleaning. This is 

why it’s incredibly convenient for a dental office to offer both general 

and specialty dentistry in one location. This saves you not only time, 

but also money. 

Most often, dental offices will need to refer you out to a specialist 

if you need, for instance, a root canal. At this specialist’s office, you 

might be charged a consultation fee so the doctor can assess if he/ 

she agrees with the diagnosed treatment. So, not only do you have 

extra fees, you also had to take additional time off of work for this 

second appointment. Having all general and specialty dentists under 

one roof allows you to have several “second” opinions and the ability 

to have multiple treatments done in one visit. 

Technology 

If the best is available, then get the best! Advancements in dental 

technology happen all the time and the best option for you six 

months ago might not be the best option now. This is why it’s so important 

to choose a dental office that has the most up-to-date and 

state-of-the-art equipment, which affords you the best techniques 

and treatments possible. Advancements in dentistry offer several 

time-saving and minimally invasive benefits, including orthodontically 

moving teeth into alignment without braces (Invisalign), laser 

gum treatment without cutting or sutures (LANAP), same-day 

crowns and veneers without temporaries (CEREC), and same-day 

total teeth replacement (All-on-4). 

Make sure you treat your smile right this year! If you’ve been 

avoiding your dentist for one reason or another, need a new dentist, 

or just need a dentist period, check out your local dentists and see 

which one checks all of your boxes. Your smile would love for you to 

find a dentist you trust, we guarantee it.

5 Ways to Help Your 

New Years Resolutions Stick 

The holidays are over and you’re ready to unfluff and feel good 

again. Here are some tips to make sure your resolutions are 

attainable and will actually work for you. If your intention and 

plan is right, you will have a much easier time sticking to you 

goals. A healthier version of you is just a couple steps away! 

1. Make Realistic Resolutions 

Don’t set yourself up for failure before you even begin! Set goals that 

are attainable and realistic. The more accomplished you feel the more 

likely you are to stay motivated and pushing toward your goals. A resolution 

shouldn’t be a fantasy. If you’ve never lifted weights before, attempting 

to do so 7 days a week is probably setting yourself up for disappointment. 

For most people, breaking or setting new habits doesn’t 

happen overnight. The key to sustainable resolutions is to make small 

changes gradually. If your goal is to go from never running to finishing 

a half-marathon, start training gradually. Begin by walking a few miles 

twice a week, and steadily increase the workload to jogging, and 

then running over several months. Just keep the word realistic 

in your head and you’ll be off to a good start! 

2. Get Specific With Your Goals 

Resolutions should be both specific and measurable. 

Writing down your goals is not only a great 

way to accomplish them, but your list can also 

help you figure out the exact steps needed to get 

where you want to go. “I want to lose weight” is 

a pretty common New Year’s resolution, but 

how exactly do you go from point A to point B? 

Instead, try setting a more specific goal. For instance: 

“I want to lose 10 pounds over the next 

6 weeks by eliminating fast food meals and going 

to the gym 3 to 4 times per week. I’ll then 

maintain my goal weight for 6 months before 

setting any other new goals.” The more specific 

your goal the better your results will be. The 

more vague your goals are the harder it will be 

to attain them. 

3. Set Non-Superficial Goals 

Sure, looking good in a bikini is always a good 

goal but superficial goals usually loose their appeal 

after endless weeks of diet and exercise. Instead, try 

picking a goal related to health and happiness. For example, regular 

exercise has awesome benefits such as lowering cholesterol, boosting 

overall energy, and even increasing happiness and decreasing depression. 

Bringing some deeper intentions to your workout can make all 

the difference in sticking to your goals. Looking good in a bikini should 

come secondary to your main goal. 

4. Buddy Up 

Find a friend or someone with like minded-goals to keep and hold 

you accountable. Accountability is huge. You are much more likely to 

stay on track when you have someone to answer to besides yourself! 

A buddy should also serve to help motivate and keep 

things real. They should have no problem telling you to put 

that french-fry down and get your booty to the gym when 

you’re lacking your own motivation. If your buddy isn’t 

doing their job, fire them and find a new one! There is 

always someone looking to become healthy and fit. 

5. Reevaluate Resolutions Often 

How many people resolve to finish a marathon, 

only to realize they kind of hate distance 

running? Or decide to take up yoga and realize 

they want something faster-paced? 

A lot of things seem fun from a distance 

but might not be a good fit in reality. If this 

happens to you, it’s time to switch gears 

and pick a different resolution. Don’t be 

afraid to switch it up. If it isn’t working for 

you pick something different and move 

on. You’re much more likely to stick with 

something that you truly enjoy.

Pellegrino Dining Concepts 

Prime Tuscany Steakhouse, 

Il Bacio Nightlife + Baciami Italiano 

By Brittney Winters | Photos by Jake Ariel 

When father-son duo Steven Pellegrino Sr. and Jr. first opened the doors 

to Prime Steak Sushi & Seafood in 2010, their years of conceptualizing, 

opening and executing restaurants to success in Rhode Island 

introduced South Florida diners to a fabulous new night out. 

Steven Pellegrino Sr. and Steven Pellegrino Jr. at the Prime Relaunch Party 

PRIME DELRAY 

Now, the duo has added Baciami Italiano to their ever-expanding 

roster of inviting restaurants dishing out familyfavorite 

recipes, commemorating their well-earned success 

with the formal introduction of Pellegrino Dining Concepts, which 

houses Prime Tuscany Steakhouse + Il Bacio Nightlife in Delray and 

Baciami Italiano in Boynton Beach. 

It’s not often you find yourself in an upscale Italian restaurant 

that makes you feel like family, but that’s exactly what the Pellegrinos 

have managed to achieve in not one but two successful South 

Florida dining establishments. Over the last decade, they have 

proven themselves to be distinguished restaurateurs who understand 

that a superior culinary experience is made even better when 

it’s delivered in a warm and hospitable setting. 

Since it first opened on Atlantic Avenue in 2010, Prime has been 

a mainstay for locals, snowbirds and vacationers alike, boasting 

the freshest in land and sea, always offering a diverse menu 

of locally-caught seafood and USDA-grade meats. In 2012, as so 

many of us remember, the Pellegrino team took the opportunity 

to incorporate their popular nightlife destination Il Bacio into the 

Prime experience, and relocated the steakhouse to its current site 

adjacent to the lounge, where it now transforms into a wild night 

when the sun goes down. 

Prime’s outdoor courtyard serves as the main dance floor for the 

night club, an impressive 12,000 square feet of high-energy space 

fit to easily contain a thousand guests in a single night. If you’ve 

spent even one kismet evening at this nightlife hot spot, you’ve 

been captivated by the dining, dancing and high energy entertainment 

that guests can rely on every Friday and Saturday night. 

Now, Prime Tuscany Steakhouse has officially celebrated its 

much-anticipated relaunch, making significant menu changes and 

updates to focus more closely on authentic Tuscan-inspired dishes. 

You won’t find sushi on their menu any longer, but you’ll still be 

able to order a fresh catch – this time it’s prepared the way your 

Italian grandmother would do things. 

From Grilled Jumbo Scallops with creamy asparagus risotto and 

parmesan crisp to ever-popular Bronzino with roasted tomatoes 

and garlic spinach, the flavors are straightforward, fresh and bold 

– much like what you’d find on a traditional Tuscan table. And of 

course, you can expect this steakhouse to deliver quality cuts of 

meat; if you’re really looking for an impressive presentation, know 


BACIAMI Prosciutto Pizza 

Monogrammed Tomahawk Steak with Idaho potatoes and grilled asparagus 

Prime’s skilled chefs add your initials to the final sear 

that Prime is the only spot in the country offering a steak with your 

name on it. That’s right – for $95, order the Monogrammed Tomahawk 

Steak and Prime’s skilled chefs will not only cook it to your 

preference but add your personal initials to the final sear, served 

with the usual fixings of Idaho potatoes, grilled asparagus and 

housemade onion rings. 

Equally impressive as the spectacular menu at Prime is their 

swanky interior décor, with a cozy dining room that opens up to an 

expansive bar and lounge area featuring live entertainment including 

a lively piano player. The space exudes character in every detail 

from sparkling chandeliers to a stunning wine room, behind which 

you can always find a private spot to dine and celebrate special occasions 

with friends, family or coworkers. 

If there’s one thing the Pellegrino family has down, it’s authentic 

Italian cuisine and hospitality, neatly wrapped up into one package 

– and lucky for all of us, they’ve brought their penchant for Italian flavors 

to the heart of Boynton Beach with their new Baciami Italiano. 

Following its Grand Opening in May, Baciami has become as 

celebrated as its predecessor, establishing itself as an authentic 

Italian mainstay, offering pizzas from an imported wood-burning 

oven and dishes straight from the Pellegrino family recipe 

book. Here, you’ll find signature dishes like Grilled Octopus with 

baby arugula, white beans and potato, and Anthony’s Sunday 

Gravy with meatballs, sausage, braciole and Guiseppe Cocco 

jumbo rigatoni. If your mouth isn’t watering yet, it’s possible 

you’ve never truly experienced traditional Italian fare the way 

it’s been done for centuries. 

Count on a memorable experience regardless of your dining preference 

at Baciami. The al fresco patio overlooks Boynton’s newlybustling 

downtown area, reminiscent of days spent sipping cappuccino 

over tiramisu in old-world Italy, and the interior dining room 

is anchored by a central bar, flanked by a gorgeous private dining 

room perfect for celebrating milestones and holidays. 

If you’re on the lookout for a great special, look no further than 

the Pellegrino family’s weekly All-You-Can-Eat Stone Crab Dinner 

Wednesdays at Prime and Thursdays at Baciami, serving up freshcaught 

stone crab with soup or salad and a chef’s side, yours for 

market price. Of course, the real treat is daily Happy Hour at both 

Pellegrino Dining Concepts, featuring Italian wines and cocktails, 

plus traditional bar bites to share (or not) for just $7.77 apiece. 

The introduction of Pellegrino Dining Concepts marks a new 

turning point for the restaurateur duo, officially uniting their numerous 

successes under one roof and ensuring a consistent experience 

from the food to the hospitality. From a pre-dinner Happy 

Hour visit at the bar to a full-blown celebratory experience that 

extends into the wee hours of the night, the Pellegrino family 

keeps their promise to always make you feel like family – they 

simply can’t help it.

THE DELRAY BEACH CLUB 

Fun For All Reasons And Seasons 

by diane feen | Photos by Emiliano brooks 

The Delray Beach Club is a lot of things. It’s a beach club with 

everything inside to calm your nerves, devour your intellect, 

peak your culinary desires and exercise your body. From tennis 

to swimming, fitness classes, body treatments and more. 

Katherine Matzger, Mary Volpe, Dee Rose, and Gina Cayne 

But there is one thing that cannot be purchased or ordered 

from Amazon. And that’s Happiness. 

It’s not easy to describe happiness, but you know it when 

you feel it or see it. That’s why so many people have joined this slice 

of heaven on the beach called the Delray Beach Club. 

If happiness brings longevity – and the experts say it’s so – then 

this beach club just South of Linton on A1A is the happiest place on 

earth. The pristine environment includes a private 3.5-acre oceanfront 

beach, a renovated clubhouse with card room, oceanfront dining, 

serene open spaces, a swimming pool and enough activities to 

keep your mind, body and soul in a blissful state. 

They also have what is known as “Cocktails and Canasta” every 

Wednesday at 4 pm. It may not sound exciting, but the gals at Delray 

Beach Club have their own brand of canasta that is inclusive, friendly 

and entertaining. Some call it “Girlfriend Canasta” but the Mother 

Hen of this weekly activity, Carol Lane calls it “Classic Canasta.” 


“We’ve really changed the vibe and the energy of the club on 

Wednesday nights. After we play canasta we all meet in the Grille 

Room (some with spouses or boyfriends) and have a great time. 

We meet new people and make sure everyone feels a part of the 

party, it’s a special night at the club,” said Lane, who wrote an Excel 

program that allows the seating to change every week so women 

get to meet new people. 

And it’s working perfectly. 

“Our canasta games are just joyful. We sit with different people 

each week and get to meet new members of all ages. It’s wonderful, 

I play bridge and tennis at the club as well,” said Kathy Klausner. 

Klausner was sitting with Nancy Tormey and Charlotte Himmelrich 

and the three of them were having a grand time. There was 

wine or cocktails, light snacks, cards and a score card - all amidst 

a clear view of the ocean and a lightness of being that casts a glow 

over the players inside. 

Everyone admits that bridge is a bit more cerebral, but “Cocktails 

and Canasta” is more social and often leads to new friendships that 

spill over into the Grille Room after the game. “The men come early 

and socialize in the Grille Room and now many of them have become 

friends as well” said Lane, whose husband Buff met her in the 

Grille Room for cocktails and dinner in the Ocean Room. 

If you ask Tormey she’ll tell you her take on this snappy game 

that hinges on getting the right cards at the right time. “You make 

40 new friends immediately and we play at Happy Hour, so we are 

a happy bunch,” 

Tormey is right. They are a happy bunch. They not only look forward 

to the weekly Canasta and Cocktails games, but the numbers 

prove their point. When they started in 2015 there were eight players 

and currently they have 104. Word just got around, according to 

Lane, that Cocktails and Canasta is a fun time and a wonderful place 

to make new friends. 

You don’t have to be a canasta player to join the group. Lane and 

Daryl Dickson teach canasta to newcomers. For those who want to 

stay for dinner after cocktails there is more socializing and laughter 

in the Ocean Room. This lovely room – that faces the glorious ocean 

– has excellent food and live music with crooners who serenade the 

group. Carl Padilla played guitar and sang classic tunes that enlivened 

the evening yet didn’t drown out conversation. 

The Delray Beach Club is a private member-owned beach club 

with a social calendar that rivals (or beats) the best of them. It’s 

also family friendly with activities for children (at the beach) and 

inside. There are also Bridge games and lessons, a Book Club, Art 

Club, Theater Trips, Luncheons, Lectures, Musical entertainment, 

Holiday Theme Dinner parties, Cabaret Nights and more. 

Every Friday night is a “Mix and Mingle,” where members gather 

by the pool, enjoy live music and complimentary hors d’oeuvres. 

Happy Hour is the intimate cozy Grille Room. And, if you’re single 

there’s an Open Table that makes everyone feel welcome. 

The Delray Beach Club has a fitness center, Men’s and Ladies 

Locker Rooms, Fitness Equipment, Exercise Classes, Personal 

Training Sessions, Massages, Body treatments and facials. 

If you’re a tennis player there are Har-Tru® Tennis Courts, Special 

Tennis Events and a USPTA certified Tennis Pro. They have Tennis 

Leagues, Round Robins, Drop-in Games, Pro-Am’s and Sunday 

Tennis Socials followed by dinner by the sea. 

There’s another reason why everyone says The Delray Beach 

Club is life changing.“There are no strangers at our club, only 

friends who have not met. We try our hardest to make sure everyone 

here is happy here,” said General Manager Shane Peachey. 

Peachey is right. There is a genuine friendliness that permeates 

the premises. You don’t need to be family to feel part of one. That 

might be one reason you may walk in a stranger, but you’ll always 

leave as part of the Delray Beach Club family. 

For membership information contact Diane Roberts at 561-278- 

6226, ext. 15. The club is located at 2001 South Ocean Blvd.

Cigars And Celebration 

By diane feen | Photos by melissa korman and harvey lustig 

You always know when November 11th 

rolls around. A big tent is set up in front of 

Atlantic Plaza, there’s festive music, food 

and good vibes infiltrating the airways. 

Puro’s cigar manager, Jesus 

It’s also the Anniversary date of Puro’s Cigar Shop in the front 

of the plaza. Though they have a small footprint in the physical 

world of retail, they have a large imprint on the psyches and 

lives of those who call Puro’s their second home. 

“My birthday is the day following Puro’s Anniversary party, so we 

celebrate together,” said Dr. Gaspar Gonzalez. “I come here almost 

every night - we’re like family. Eduardo serves his special blend of 

espresso at night and everyone brings their wives or girlfriends 

and we all have a night cap before going home,” said the Vice Chairman 

of knockoutforacause.org. 

It seems everyone who came to Puro’s 8th Anniversary Party relishes 

the time they celebrate (and situate) around the Puro’s family. 

The family consists of Lisbeth Garcia (the matriarch and co-manager), 

Eduardo (the patriarch and friendliest guy on earth) Jesus, the 

son and manager and Steve. All are revered for their kind hearts, 

knowledge of cigars and ability to turn a small shop into an international 

hangout for those who enjoy smoking cigars. 

At their Anniversary Party – that is a tradition every year – the tables 

are much longer, the music is live, the food is abundant and the 

festive dancing cements the joie de vie of the moment. There was barbeque 

skirt steak, chicken kabobs, potato salad and dessert. The grill 

kept going and flowing with fresh food for all who came to celebrate. 

“Puro’s has been open for eight years and has become a landmark 

for the cigar business. This is not easy to do. They have great 

customer service and it’s so personalized,” said Davidoff Rep Carlos, 

who attended the party. 

And he wasn’t the only cigar rep in attendance. There was Jose 

from Ashton, Susan from Romeo y Julieta and Joaquin from My 

Father Cigars. There was also a raffle with better prizes than ever 

before. “We had an amazing raffle. We gave away a golf bag, a big 

humidor, cutters and other big items,” said Lisbeth, who is revered 

for being one of the few women in the retail cigar landscape. 

The Garcia’s passion for their trade (and their customers) is legendary. 

Regulars such as Frank Meersky, Dr. Gonzalez, Joe and Dave 

gravitate to Puro’s almost every day. And it’s not just for the cigars. 

“We all know each other, and the people here are respectful to everyone. 

We’ve also had an influence on some younger people who 

needed direction,” adds Dr. Gonzalez.

Owners Edwardo and lisbeth with musicians from their anniversary fiesta 

Usually the banter drifts from subject to subject – from 

politics to medicine and back to sports and life lessons. When 

there’s a sporting event on TV the Garcia’s bring out the flat 

screen TV for guests outside. Betty Anne Irwin sat with a 

friend (and other Puro’s regulars) and watched the Miami 

Dolphins vs. Buffalo Bills game on the patio of Puro’s. Though 

Irwin is one of the few women to join the gang outside (where 

camaraderie is at its zenith) she sat there smoking a cigar and 

watching the game. “I know everyone here. It’s great to be outside 

and have company. We talk about everything, and everyone 

is respectful and gentlemanly.” 

You bet they are. Kinship and camaraderie are so prevalent 

at Puro’s that everyone says it’s like being in their living room 

or a home away from home. 

There is one difference - The Puro’s domain has a humidor 

filled with premium cigars. They range from a wide selection 

of Padron Cigars, Romeo Y Julieta, Ashton, Camacho, Avo, The 

Griffin’s, Montecristo, Arturo Fuente, My Father Cigars, Rocky 

Patel and others. They sell pipe tobacco (in assorted flavors 

and blends) as well as lighters, humidors, cigar accessories 

and espresso. 

Their newest cigar, from Foundation is called The Wise Man 

Maduro. It has Nicaraguan filler tobaccos from Condega, Esteli, 

and Jalapa with a rich San Andres Mexican Maduro wrapper. 

The blend has flavorful dark roast espresso and cacao with a 

Medium to Full-Bodied Smoke. Puro’s also carries Foundation’s 

Super Premium Cigar, The Tabernacle as well as Charter 

Oak Cigars. If there’s something you want that they don’t have, 

chances are they will order it for you. 

If you see people sitting under green umbrellas in front of 

Puro’s you’ll probably be a witness to a happy bunch. As Vincent 

Gonzalez recently said, “I come here a lot and have never 

missed an Anniversary Party at Puro’s. They bring Latin culture 

to Delray, and I couldn’t be happier.” 

So is everyone else! 

During the month of January Jesus and Eduardo are offering 

a Special 20% discount on all boxes of Cigars with the Code – 

Puros20. You must also bring this article for the discount.

TZIKAS MD 

Dr. Miguel Mascaró Creates 

A Youthful Look For His Patients 

By nicol jenkins | photos by melissa korman 

If you are looking for luscious lips like celebrities 

and youthful facial proportions like models on 

the runway, that possibility is finally here. 

Miguel Mascaró, MD at Tzikas Facial Plastic Surgery Center 

A 

more natural and youthful looking face can be found right 

here in Delray Beach with Dr. Miguel Mascaró, a renowned 

cosmetic surgeon. 

Practicing at Tzikas Facial Plastic Surgery Center in Delray 

Beach, Dr. Miguel Mascaró specializes in upper lip lifts, injectables, 

fillers, surgical facial rejuvenation, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery 

(blepharoplasty) and hair restoration. 

One of Dr. Mascaró’s specialties is the upper lip lift - a procedure 

that addresses one area often overlooked in the aging process. 

“When looking at what determines youth, we really need to fo- 


cus on proportions. Often, the lower third of the face gets overlooked. 

Most physicians address this by providing volume and 

putting fillers in,” said Dr. Mascaró. “This works great. But it’s not 

for everyone. Some procedures can go wrong because not everyone 

is a candidate for fillers. If you have very thin lips, it can look 

unnatural, and that is what we do not want. We want to create a 

youthful look with a natural shape and fullness. This is where the 

lip lift comes in.” 

How does the lip lift procedure work? The lip lift addresses the 

volume to the lip, allows the lips to look natural, and shortens the 

distance between the nose and upper lip. 

“As you get older, you get a longer looking upper lip from loss 

of elasticity, less definition of the lip as it loses volume accompanied 

with fine lines and wrinkles. We provide natural results with 

a minimal scar hidden under the nose and a much more improved 

shape of the lip,” said the local surgeon. 

Dr. Mascaró provides the procedure with minimal downtime and 

right in the office. 

“It’s performed under local anesthesia, it’s almost like going to 

the dentist. It only takes 45 minutes to an hour, and the recovery 

time is only 5 to 6 days. We have modified and changed the lip lift 

procedure over the years so now there is minimal swelling and rapid 

healing. People from all over the world come to our office to get 

this procedure and look and feel younger – but more importantly 

– feel better about themselves,” said Dr. Mascaró. 

Unlike in the past, the lip lift is not only for an older clientele. Dr. 

Mascaró serves a wide variety of patients of all ages. 

“Historically, this was really only for the aging face. However, 

with my new technique, I am getting patients who are younger 

women and men as well. The younger women, from 22 to 35 years 

old, are looking for more volume, their smiles to look brighter, and 

yet still maintain a natural appearance. I have men come in who are 

also suffering from loss of elasticity and want an easy way to ‘turn 

back the clock’. I also have older women who want to look more 

youthful and are concerned with the changing proportions of their 

face,” said Dr. Mascaró. “The lip lift makes a big difference in all my 

patients. Some of my patients were previously getting a lot of lip 

fillers from different physicians and they were stretching their upper 

lip. I have corrected a lot of lip fillers.” 

Not every procedure is the same. Dr. Mascaró takes the time to 

meet with each of his patients and customizes the procedure for 

their face and lips. He has modified the lip lift procedure so there is 

minimal downtime and no scarring. 

“Everything is catered to the individual sitting in front of me. I 

don’t want to give the same lip lift to everyone. Sometimes my patients 

just need a little filler, while sometimes the lip lift is what you 

need,” he said. “The lip lift has been around for quite some time. 

About five years ago, we re-examined why they were not having 

good results. The technique was modified, and the results were everything 

that we wanted. It slowly caught on and it is no longer 

just Hollywood’s dirty little secret! Models and actresses were doing 

this originally, and now anyone can get their lips done and look 

more youthful,” said Dr. Mascaró. 

As a fellowship trained Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon, 

Dr. Mascaró is inspired by a love of artful detail combined with a 

genuine desire to help his patients look and feel their best. The 

Delray Beach based surgeon is one of only a few in the country 

Patient consulting with Miguel Mascaró, MD 

to perform this modified lip lift procedure with such precision. 

People come from all over the world to Delray Beach just for Dr. 

Mascaró’s expertise. He received his training in Head & Neck Reconstructive 

Surgery along with skin cancer reconstructions in 

New York and perfected his cosmetic trade with additional training 

with one of the pioneers of cosmetic surgery in Birmingham, 

Alabama. When he moved to Delray Beach, he decided to focus 

his expertise on cosmetic surgery to make his patients feel good 

about themselves. 

“I find it rewarding being able to give my patients something 

they have been trying to achieve for a long time or have lost for a 

long time. A lot of the patients who are coming for lip lifts, all of a 

sudden don’t feel or look the same; once they have the procedure 

and look in the mirror at how they look, it makes such an impact 

in their lives. It can improve someone’s smile, the proportions of 

their face, and give them a more natural look that makes a lasting 

impact,” said Dr. Mascaró. 

His patients praise the cosmetic surgeon for making them look 

and feel better. 

“Dr. Mascaró recently performed a lip lift procedure for me and I 

could not be more pleased with the results. Dr. Mascaró and his assistants 

have been wonderful throughout the whole process. They 

answered all of my questions and provided clear instructions on 

how to prepare and what to expect. I highly recommend Dr. Mascaró,” 

said one of his patients. 

“Dr. Mascaró is an amazing, caring doctor, incredibly talented 

surgeon, his bedside manners are impeccable, his staff is awesome! 

I am very happy with the results I got, actually it’s beyond 

what I had hoped to get, so grateful! My case was very complicated 

because I had previous surgeries that went bad, so he fixed it so 

nicely! Thank you Dr. Mascaró!” said another patient. 

Dr. Mascaro truly cares about his patients!

POSH PROPERTIES 

Agents Offer Local, Professional, 

Real Estate Expertise 

By nicol jenkins | Photos by melissa korman 

When buying or selling a home, it’s important 

to have a Real Estate professional who 

knows the ins and outs of your community. 

The Real Estate professionals at Posh Properties, are experts 

in the Delray and Palm Beach County markets. 

Compared to the national and global brand companies, 

Jerilyn focuses her boutique real estate firm, Posh Properties, on 

exclusively offering a personal touch with professional Realtors 

that know the local markets. Many consider a “boutique” firm 

to cater to the high end market, or possibly too small to break 

into the competitive real estate market. In reality, boutique real 

estate firms are extremely specialized businesses with a culture 

centered on customer service and professionalism. At Posh Prop- 

Some of our family of agents: L-R, back row: Angela Wert, Kirsten Smith, Holli Brisson, Samantha Johnsen, Jim Wrona, Nicole Davis, 

Lena Pronuza, Anthony Aliberti, Andrew Sassen, (In-House- First Trust Mortgage), Skyy Daley, Jaime Smith, Zaida Pena, Lea Black. 

Front Row: Jerilyn Walter, Amanda Ennis, Beverly Mandel, JJ Cordano, Christina Brackley and Emily Gurvitch 


Ever present, Jerilyn Walter, owner/broker, loves the 

connection she has with all the agents. “our offices are always 

bustling and it’s exciting to be around so many professionals” 

Kirsten Smith and Emily Gurvitch take time to 

collaborate for the benefit of the customer 

erties, you can expect above average representation in any transaction 

from a condominium to a waterfront estate. You can rest 

assured knowing that not only your Realtor, but the Broker and 

the entire office is working to assist you through a smooth and 

skilled transaction. 

Boutique firms offer the same Multiple Listing Service (MLS) representation 

as larger companies. In fact “The competency of a business 

is now measured by the company leadership, its agents, and the 

technology the company has invested in.” Posh Properties has a full 

time Social Media consultant, tech support, state of the art digital 

document service and licensed, educated management team. 

“With a hands-on approach I provide our agents with the educational 

and practical experience, keeping them fully engaged in the 

business of real estate, and the market,” said Jerilyn. “We have accountability 

in our office. Our agents support one another and are 

happy to make sure everyone’s customer is treated with the respect 

and appreciation they deserve.” 

“For over 10 years, I was a successful Real Estate agent working 

for national and global brands, where I was just a number. My 

customers were also considered just a number. In many cases the 

managing broker ignored issues that directly affected the transaction. 

Frustrated, I opened Posh Properties 6 years ago, along with 

a new attitude; build relationships, know the market, and put your 

customer first. Florida will always be a great market, real estate 

will always be a great investment, and Posh Properties will always 

evolve with technology and the marketplace. These are just some of 

the reasons why so many of the area agents are looking to join our 

firm,” added Jerilyn. 

Jim Wrona, who has been in real estate since 1997, says he enjoys 

working at Posh Properties because of the “camaraderie.” “We are 

the local agents working for a boutique office with a lot of deep 

reach into the community. Finding the perfect home for our customers 

is all about having patience and education. We listen to find 

out what their needs are so we can best serve them,” he said. 

Lea Black, a 13-year real estate professional, also enjoys the 

teamwork atmosphere. 

“What I like about working at Posh Properties is the other agents 

that I work alongside are professionals that have experience and it 

is very much a team effort. We offer a more personal experience in 

a boutique office,” she said. 

Realtor Emily Gurvitch says Posh Properties offers an atmosphere 

of “support, encouragement and motivation. We are really connected 

with the locals being in the downtown offices. Posh Properties is 

more of a family atmosphere rather than a work environment.” 

Realtor Kirsten Smith, who has been in real estate for 14 years, 

said, “I have built my practice over several years as my own residential 

entity within brokerages with few agents and that were 

heavily focused on investments and multifamily. I enjoyed that 

side of the business, however, I had a strong desire to participate 

in a more agent-centric environment where I had other agents to 

bounce ideas off of and collaborate with. I’ve known Jerilyn for 

many years and always admired her work ethic, and commitment 

to the local communities. It was a natural fit to bring my homegrown 

practice to Posh. Jerilyn provides a professional, supplemental 

brokerage with ample support for her agents thus providing 

the perfect setting to grow your own business, succeed and 

really get involved in the local markets. Jerilyn is dedicated to her 

agents and her community. She thrives off of our successes and is 

also there to meet any of our challenges. Posh has such a strong 

local presence and commitment to provide the best real estate 

services. I’m thrilled to have joined the team.” 

Posh Properties’ 36 knowledgeable agents can be seen around 

town showing properties, giving back to a charitable organization, 

or at a local open house. They contribute to many local causes 

including the Chris Evert Foundation, local animal rescue efforts, 

and food distribution and adopting families for the holidays. “Posh 

Properties agents strongly believe in giving back to the communities 

that give so much to us.” 

Posh Properties recently opened a second office in Boynton Beach 

at 100 South Federal Hwy, and have plans for additional offices. 

Stop by Posh Properties and get that personal real estate experience 

unlike any other. There is always an agent on duty to assist you 

with your real estate needs!

Tipsy SalonBar & Spa 

Get Pampered 

While Drinking Wine 

By Nicol jenkins | Photos by melissa korman 

Walking through the doors, you may 

not know at first if it’s a bar or a salon. 

Greeted with a glass of white or red wine and a choice of pampering 

services, customers quickly find out that it is both- a 

bar and a salon. 

Tipsy SalonBar, which recently opened in Delray Beach, offers the 

best of both worlds - a wine bar inside of a salon. At the location, 

customers can get pampered by getting their hair, eyelashes, nails or 

toes done, while at the same time unwind with a glass of wine. 

Tipsy SalonBar provides a wide variety of services including: 

hair color, style, manicure, pedicure, eyelash extensions, Keratin 

treatments, hair cut, blow dry, waxing, in addition to Botox and 

Coolsculpting from a medical physician and much more! 

The owners saw a need for a full service spa and salon with a 

relaxing bar atmosphere - all under one roof. 

“I noticed that there were not many salons that offered every service 

at one location. Customers would get their hair done at one 

place and then have to travel to a different location for their nails. 

Sometimes a husband or boyfriend would be waiting for their significant 

other and not enjoy the service. At Tipsy SalonBar, we offer 

every service at one location. The men can have a glass of wine 

while the wife or girlfriend can get their hair done, or they can both 

get a pedicure at the same time and enjoy a drink,” said Tin Nguyen, 

Manager at Tipsy SalonBar. 


Although they just opened, locals and visitors are really enjoying 

the concept. 

“Customers will come in for the first time and walk through and 

ask is that a bar or a salon. Not many people are offering a salon 

with a bar. The first time when customers walk through the door, 

we offer them a drink and a service and make sure they are happy,” 

said Tin. “We are just one block North of Atlantic Avenue and a perfect 

spot to relax before a night out on the Ave.” 

Tipsy SalonBar focuses on making sure their customers are 

treated like royalty. The moment you walk through the door, a 

friendly staff member offers you a glass of red or white wine. The 

expert stylists and nail technicians take the time to know what each 

of their customers are looking for and customize the pampering 

service for each individual. They offer later hours for the busy hard 

working professional so they can come in after work. 

“We want all of our customers to have a relaxing experience. We 

recommend they make an appointment to make sure that everyone 

who walks through the door has a good amount of time to relax. We 

don’t want to rush anyone,” said Tin. 

Tipsy SalonBar offers color correction, extensions, Keratin treatments, 

Balayage, Ombre, blow dry and haircut, along with top quality 

products such as Kevin Murphy. 

“We have a very modern looking salon, and we like to have fun 

here. We offer our clients a glass of wine when they are getting services 

done. Our staff is laid back and fun but take good care of our 

customers. Our real goal is for clients to have a luxurious experience 

and have fun while they are doing it,” said expert hair stylist 

Marissa Tankersley, “If you are on the Avenue and about to go out 

with friends, come here and let us do your hair and nails.” 

Expert hair stylist and colorist Mark King said Tipsy SalonBar 

is such a unique concept because “we have a bar, and people come 

to the Avenue to drink and eat and have a good time. This concept 

works best in this area better than any other area because our customers 

are here to celebrate every night,” he said. “My clients like to 

come in, have a glass of wine and relax. They come here to unwind.” 

Hannah Nguyen, a nail technician at Tipsy SalonBar, says the location 

offers everything from manicures, pedicures, gel, NexGen, acrylics 

and more! She gets to know all of her clients and their families. 

“We want our clients to feel more like family when they come 

here instead of just customers. We offer a friendly and welcoming 

atmosphere. The service here is always great. When our clients 

walk out of here, they have to be happy,” said Hannah. “Customer 

service is important. Clients say we are so friendly here. We don’t 

want the customer to come in and feel like we just need to get the 

job done and go. We don’t rush customers in and out.” 

“It’s rewarding to see my clients come in and then see them 

happy after they get their hair and nails done and look and turn 

out beautiful. We keep the prices reasonable for everyone coming 

here,” said Tin. 

“Every single person here is incredibly amazing in every sense: 

kind, caring, talented and sweet. I came in today, totally last minute... 

the day before my best friend’s wedding and I’m the maid 

of honor so I need to look my best! Tipsy SalonBar accommodated 

me right away as a walk-in; I did not have an appointment. I 

was incredibly grateful! Not only did they accommodate me, they 

treated me like royalty! There is major talent here for both hair 

and nails. I highly recommend Tipsy SalonBar for all your hair and 

nail needs! Oh, you get a glass of wine or champagne too!” said 

one happy customer. 

“Absolutely love this place! The staff is awesome and they stand 

by their word. Thank you guys for providing me with a personalized 

experience,” said another customer. 

Make your appointment today at Tipsy SalonBar! For the New 

Year during the month of January, they will be offering 20% off the 

first time visit for a new client!

PURLIFE FITNESS CENTER DELRAY BEACH 

Assess For The Best 

By diane feen | Photos by melissa korman 

They say knowledge is power. But it’s not just for 

power sake alone. It’s for creating and maintaining 

a healthy lifestyle and a healthy physical body that 

functions at its maximum capacity. 

Giovanni instructing PurLife member Shania Wizov through a full body exercise 

Sure, it’s nice to look good, but it’s even more important to 

make sure your exercise regime is one that complements your 

lifestyle and body type, not causes injury or pain. 

That’s why Purlife introduced a state-of-the-art Fitness Assessment 

tool to measure exactly what your body needs to function at 

its highest capacity, while minimizing (or eliminating) injury. 

This ranking system is called Functional Movement Screening, or 

FMS. It sounds technical, but the actual process is methodical and 

diagnostic. It’s been proven to pinpoint and personalize a workout 

program to get you active and healthy without injury or pain. Do 

you have a knee problem? Shoulder pain or tightness in your hip? 

If so the reason might not be what you think. 

“We help clients by creating specific exercise programs for them 

that help identify imbalances in the body. That is one of the reasons 

people suffer injuries or pain. As you go through the screening process 

(FMS) we assess what the client does well and what they have 

trouble doing. This allows us to create a program just for them that 

strengthens their weak areas, so they can move better and more often 

(and maximize their ability to lose weight). You’ll feel and look 

great without pain or injury,” said Giovanni Roselli, Regional Director 

of Personal Training at Purlife. 

FMS has a slogan – Move well – Move often. If you’re not moving, 

then your tissues and muscles begin to decline. To go about 

your daily life safer, stronger and with more confidence you need 

to address areas of weakness. 

The FMS screening is an amazing tool that gives the Purlife 

Master Trainer the ability to correctly identify what exercises you 

need to do to achieve a healthy balance in your body. “If you’re 

not doing the right exercise you can injure yourself. If you have 

a bad knee the problem might not be your knee, it may be above 

or below the joint which would be the foot or hip. We want our 

clients to play with their kids or grandchildren without pain. We 

train you from head to toe,” said Roselli. 

Roselli knows what he is talking about. He was with Equinox 

Fitness Clubs for 10 years and served as a Master Instructor and 

Tier 4 Coach. He is also a Functional Movement Screen (FMS) Level 

2 Master Trainer. 

After going through FMS, Giovanni used ViPR to 

help correct imbalances and challenge weak links 


Giovanni checks and measures for shoulder mobility 

Giovanni prepares Shania for the in line lunge screen 

Roselli believes in the “movement-based approach,” which means 

not getting onto machines just to keep moving, but to train the body 

as a unit, not in isolation, focusing on any weak muscles or body parts. 

The FMS Assessment is done at the beginning of the program 

and is purely diagnostic. You’ll see what you’re struggling with so 

the Master Trainer at Purlife can identify what needs to be done 

to correct imbalances. He will be able to see how your knee joint, 

hip joint and shoulder joint is moving. 

The FMS Assessment is done with specific FMS equipment. It 

shows which parts of your body don’t function as well as others 

(usually due to injury or lack of exercise) and shows what you 

need to work on to improve mobility, stability (strength) at all 

major joint systems. 

It’s easy to sit on the sidelines and avoid injury or pain, but it’s 

not the most prudent way to stay healthy. As a matter of fact, it’s a 

sure way to a shorten a fulfilling life. As people get older they find 

themselves sitting out many exciting activities simply because they 

have previous injuries they feel require rest or avoidance. 

But if you listen to Master Trainer Mike Katz or Roselli you will 

discover that limitations are only that – limitations. They know that 

with the proper fitness program you can overcome your limitations 

through a specific exercise routine created for you. 

To get a proper assessment of your physical strengths and weaknesses 

Purlife also has “InBody.” You stand on a device that tells the 

trainer about your exact body composition. It measures muscle-fat 

ratio, muscles development, visceral fat level (that surround the internal 

organs) and other critical body functions. 

To help correct these imbalances and focus on total body exercise 

they have a ViPR. This tube-like device is strategically created 

for flexibility, stability and cardiovascular training. It’s three dimensional 

so you can move forward, backward, side to side and rotate. 

Functional Training is the newest wave in fitness. “It’s important 

to move well so you can function in your day to day life. Just because 

you look good does not mean your body works well.” 

He’s right. After going through FMS and InBody with Master 

Trainer Michael Katz I realized what my body was trying to tell me. 

I also realized that to live a pain-free active life I needed to pinpoint 

exactly what was weak from prior injuries and how to remedy the 

weakness with specific exercises. 

Purlife also has a Fit3D wellness assessment tool. It takes a scan 

of your body so you can track how your body has changed visually 

over time. 

As a way of elevating the entire health model Purlife has added 

a nutrition certification called Precision Nutrition. Without proper 

nutrition the body doesn’t perform to its maximum potential. And 

let’s face it, we all want to live well and feel great. 

That’s why Purlife is offering an all-inclusive Wellness Journey - 

60 For 60 To Get Fit. It encourages behavior changes, nutritional 

awareness, improves the quality of movement and helps you stay 

consistent with your exercise program. It includes Private Training 

Sessions, 60 days of Gym Access and Group Fitness, a Fit3d Scan, 

InBody readings and FMS Evaluation. The results will astound you. 

Purlife has been so successful in Delray that they are opening a 

Boca Raton Purlife in January 2018.

Delray Dermatology + Cosmetic Center 

Discover Comprehensive 

Dermatology Care 

By nicol jenkins | Photos by melissa korman 

Where can you find the best 

in a truly comprehensive 

Dermatology care? Search no 

further than the newly opened 

Delray Dermatology + Cosmetic 

Center, which offers medical 

and cosmetic Dermatology 

services all under one roof. 

As an experienced and Board Certified Dermatologist, Dr. 

Francesca Lewis, MD wanted to open a full service medical 

and cosmetic office in the heart of East Delray Beach. “As a 

resident of Delray Beach, I felt as though there was a need in East 

Delray for a board certified Dermatologist who specializes in all aspects 

of Dermatology and provides comprehensive services,” said 

Dr. Francesca Lewis. She hopes to become the go-to Dermatologist 

in East Delray Beach. 

Dr. Lewis is a Florida native, a graduate of Emory University 

School of Medicine, and a member of the prestigious Alpha Omega 

Alpha medical honor society. She is a Dermatologist certified by the 

American Board of Dermatology who specializes in general and 

cosmetic Dermatology. She graduated with a Bachelor of Science 

from Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee and completed 

her residency training in Dermatology at the Medical University of 

South Carolina. Before relocating back to Florida, Dr. Lewis worked 

in a prestigious Dermatology practice in Silicon Valley and gained 

extensive experience with laser treatments and cosmetic injectables 

at one of the country’s largest cosmetic and laser centers. 

She and her husband, a Radiologist at Boca Regional Hospital, their 

son Grayson and their Labrador Retriever Bear have made Delray 

Beach their permanent home since 2015. She is an affiliate assistant 

professor at FAU and on staff at Boca Regional Hospital. She 

has donated to many charity organizations, hospitals, and schools 

in the area and is on the committee for the Go Pink Luncheon to 

benefit breast cancer awareness at Boca Raton Regional Hospital. 

“The most important thing we can do for our community is to give 

back,” she said, and she makes it a priority to do so. 

Delray Dermatology + Cosmetic Center provides a state of the 

art, brand new medical office focused on patient care and comfort. 

Technology is incorporated throughout the office from the iPad kiosks 

in the waiting room for patients to complete their medical his-

tory, choose their preferred pharmacy and update their contact information, 

to the TVs in every exam room showcasing cutting edge 

procedures and the most up to date medical information. There is 

attention to detail throughout the office with an emphasis on patient 

comfort. A coffee bar graces the main lobby, the furnishings 

are modern and comfortable, and there is even a private lounge for 

patients who are receiving cosmetic procedures. 

Dr. Lewis puts an emphasis on education. She admits that she 

sees fewer patients a day than many of her Dermatology colleagues 

because she enjoys educating patients on their condition, the pros 

and cons of various treatments, and developing an individualized 

treatment plan with every patient. Delray Dermatology houses a 

spectacular conference room for monthly educational seminars 

and events. They host monthly ‘Lunch & Learn’ seminars, on topics 

ranging from skin cancer to cosmeceutical products. On January 

23rd, they are hosting their next ‘Lunch & Learn’ from 12-1pm on 

the topic of acne: causes and cutting-edge acne treatments. They 

also plan on quarterly VIP events for their patients (the first of 

which will be on January 11th from 5-7pm, see their Facebook page 

for more details), and regular evening events to learn more about 

their cosmetic offerings. 

The Delray Beach based center keeps medical Dermatology at its 

core, focusing on skin cancer, acne, benign moles and growths, eczema, 

psoriasis, rosacea, hair loss and more. Especially in our sunny 

South Florida climate, Dr. Lewis urges her patients to get their 

skin checked for cancer at least once a year. “Twenty percent of the 

population will get skin cancer in their lifetime. We commonly find 

skin cancers even in 20 to 30 year-olds, although they are more 

common to develop later in life. I urge patients to come in as soon 

as possible if they notice a lesion that is new, growing, changing or 

bleeding,” said Dr. Lewis. Make sure when choosing a Dermatologist 

that you look for a medical doctor that is certified by the American 

Board of Dermatology and is a Fellow of the American Academy 

of Dermatology to make sure they have the proper credentials. 

“I went into Dermatology because it is incredibly rewarding to 

make an impact on someone’s quality of life by treating their rosacea 

or acne or psoriasis, or by diagnosing a melanoma in its earliest 

stages, or making someone feel more confident about themselves 

when they look in the mirror with natural appearing cosmetic procedures. 

I love what I do every day and the patients I get to build 

relationships with,” she said. She enjoys seeing patients of all ages 

as well, including children. 

While with their roots still in medical Dermatology, they provide 

cosmetic services only that have a proven benefit including laser 

treatments, Botox and Dysport wrinkle relaxing injections, dermal 

fillers like Juvederm to help with fine lines and creases, microneedling 

for collagen stimulation, Platelet Rich Plasma treatments, OxyGeneo 

SuperFacials and much more! The lasers they have are used 

to treat redness, brown spots, wrinkles, and acne scars. Dr. Lewis 

explains that she is very careful when evaluating and selecting new 

devices for the office to make sure that efficacy of the device is foremost 

and patient comfort and satisfaction is paramount. Dr. Lewis 

takes an individualized approach to correcting the signs of aging 

called Complete Correction because not every patient is the same 

and needs the same treatment. She evaluates and treats the entire 

spectrum of aging symptoms of the skin by addressing color imperfections, 

creases and contours of the face with a multi-faceted approach 

incorporating a variety of the above treatments and medical 

grade skincare regimens. She developed her own medical grade 

skin care line called Delray Skin that is available in the office and 

will soon be available online through their website delrayskin.com. 

Her patients agree that Dr. Lewis is superb and recommend Delray 

Dermatology + Cosmetic Center for all your Dermatology needs. 

“Dr. Lewis is the kindest. She takes the time to listen to your 

concerns. I left afterward not feeling rushed but confident that my 

health was in good hands. Her staff were also very personable and 

the new office looks great! I highly recommend,” said one patient. 

“I have had psoriasis for years and never have been able to get it 

under control until I found Dr. Lewis. She spent so much time with 

me and came up with a plan. Now I’m almost completely better,” 

said another patient. 

Visit Delray Dermatology + Cosmetic Center during the Delray 

Beach Chamber of Commerce grand opening and ribbon cutting 

ceremony on January 18th from 5-6:30pm.

How to Stop Drinking 

Get Healthy 

See a Doctor 

First, make the decision to quit and the commitment to doing 

whatever it’ll take. Then get some help from an expert physician 

skilled with addiction and keep them on your team. Especially if 

your drinking has been regular and heavy, withdrawal should be 

medically supervised. A brief stint in de-tox can be a good start 

toward a better life. 

Addiction is Curable 

There are strategies available using a therapist like myself to rid 

ourselves of addiction, and eventually walk down the street without 

feeling sick, broken, or not-good-enough or scared that one 

next wrong move’s going to kill you. 

Will Power Sucks 

Thinking you’ll be stronger than the call of old habits just by 

force of will is a fantasy. You cannot continue to live the same ways, 

frequent the same places, hang out with the same people and structure 

your time the same. If you show up in a bar around happy hour, 

you’re going to drink 

Doing Whatever it Takes 

Making and keeping commitments is key to regaining self-management. 

Under the direction of an expert addictions therapist and 

supportive groups like AA, it is possible to remove the power from 

urges and triggers that have tipped the scales toward self-destruction. 

You may experience these impulses for the rest of your life, 

but you’ll grow wise enough to move past them without danger and 

without acting on them. 

1. Remove alcohol and any other mood altering substances from 

your diet and surroundings immediately. Warn your spouse or 

roommate that these supplies are no longer welcome. 

2. Get up before 6AM (or earlier) daily and make physical aerobic 

exercise your first priority. Brisk walking, running, biking, swimming, 

etc will bathe your brain in healing chemistry and supply motivation 

you’ll need all day. 

3. Sharpen your diet. Eat small meals 6 times daily. Drop the 

carbs and sugar. Use a professional nutritionist. 

Roots of Addiction and the Real Costs 

4. Commit to honest self-inquiry with a therapist. Familiarize 

yourself with thinking distortions and destructive behavioral patterns 

that have allowed your emotions to control you. Determine 

why you’ve lost your way. 

5. Attend a 12 Step meeting every day. Speak up. Let yourself be 

known in the room. Make the coffee and hand it out when it’s your 

turn. Introduce yourself. Often. 

6. Get a 12 Step sponsor with the time, motivation and inclination 

to hold you accountable for meetings and step work. 

Practice Seeing the World As it Is 

7. Make “structural changes” such as travel schedule alterations 

and time commitments to work your recovery as THE most important 

project. Avoiding family? Are you a workaholic? Is your job killing 

you? Does your marriage suck? 

8. Meditate or pray mindfully at dawn to raise your awareness of 

urges and triggers. Build an awareness of your spiritual potential. 

Block time to “just sit” quietly for 10 minutes per day, every day. A 

chair is fine. 

You Could Fail and Die 

There can be points in our lives beyond which we cannot, without 

more restrictive care, return from a dangerous addiction. Our 

bodies grow accustomed and may refuse to cooperate with the 

most robust plan. People die of alcoholism and it’s related illnesses 

daily. If you feel you might need a higher level of care, including 

hospitalization, don’t hesitate to consult me. 

Take Action Now 

If you need assistance with your recovery, I’m available as an 

expert addiction psychotherapist and sober coach based in Delray 

Beach, FL. I work by phone and office visits. Contact me here. or call 

me at 561–213–8030.

Wеddіng Trеndѕ 

5By Paula AngerFor 2018 

It’s that time of year again and 

each year wе discover a ѕhіft іn 

wеddіng trеndѕ - ѕоmеtіmеѕ a 

ѕubtlе change in whats “in style” 

from the previous year, оthеr 

times іt is a соmрlеtе 360. 

One of the beauties about weddings is that aesthetically the 

industry is always in constant change and nеvеr gets boring 

since thеrе аrе so mаnу new аnd different options to consider. 

2018 is going to be a уеаr of іnnоvаtіоn аnd еxреrіmеntаtіоn 

fоr couples. As thе wеddіng season аррrоасhеѕ, wе gіvе you a 

sneak peak of what 2018 is going to be all about! 

1. Black Accents 

We have been seeing lots of blush, peach and overall pastel color 

trends in the last few years which are subtle and give a romantic 

wedding feel. But this year, black is the new accent color; from bridal 

accessories and outfits to wedding decor, this year’s bride and 

groom will make a statement with this innovative trend. Being bold 

is in, but if this trend doesn’t fit your personality than you can opt 

out or simply use black subtly throughout your wedding with caution. 

You can always mix black with other “not so dramatic” colors 

for the perfect balance. 

2. Mismatched Bridesmaids Dresses 

Wearing the same type of dress and color is pretty much out of 

the equation this year for bridesmaids. Brіdеѕmаіdѕ want to make 

a statement in 2018 as well and they can choose a dress and color 

hue that matches their style. Even though brides will give their 

bridesmaids some freedom this year, don’t forget to also give them 

some guidelines. In the end, the whole wedding has to be cohesive 

and bridesmaids need to keep this in mind when picking their outfit. 

If you want to play it safe, provide your bridesmaids with different 

color hues they can choose from. 

3. Drip and Geometric Wedding Cakes 

Drips and geometric shaped cake decor are all in for 2018; from 

gold and black to any color that will suit your wedding theme. No 

matter the size of your cake, 1 tier, 2 tiers or 3+ tiers, cakes will be 

another wedding “wow factor” that your guests will be talking about. 

4. Different Wedding Settings 

Wedding venues are always a great option, but lately, other settings 

such as industrial spaces are being considered by couples who 

want something “out of the box.” There are tons of settings you can 

choose from depending on the theme of the wedding; from barns 

and beaches to parks and museums. Remember you can always get 

creative and transform virtually any space with lighting and decor. 

5. Transparent Elements 

From see-through acrylic tables, to see-through wedding archs, 

this style is becoming stronger and stronger. Couples can add 

glowing elements, LEDs, and other decor such as flowers to their 

see-through elements for that “new edge” wedding feel. 

Always remember that trends are trends, and the most important 

thing is that the couple feels confident and excited about these new 

things, if they choose to. If you want to add some of the latest trends 

to your wedding, choose one or two that fit your personality, fit the 

wedding feel you are going for, and that you both identify with.

Great Places 

to Visit in 

the UK, 

After London 

If you’re planning a trip to the 

UK, chances are you’re heading 

to London, but maybe no further. 

The buzzing metropolis draws millions of visitors every year, 

and many people feel it offers all they could want. But the UK 

is packed with other amazing places beyond London, each 

unique in some special way, so make sure you don’t miss out. Here 

are eight highlights around the country, for starters: 

1. Elegant Bath: The graceful, little city of bath makes a refreshing 

antidote to London. Take a stroll around the famous Royal 

Crescent, visit the historic Roman Baths and sip the curative 

spring water in the elegant, old Pump Room. You can do your gift 

shopping in the tiny stalls that adorn the river bridge. Stay until 

nightfall and witness the magical floodlights - there’s a fairy-tale 

element to Bath. 

2. The Cotswolds: A little further north, you’ll encounter the 

rolling farmland of the Cotswolds, where the quaint, little stone 

cottages and Norman churches will take you back through the 

centuries. Stop off in a sleepy, old village, such as Bibury, and walk 

around the amazingly preserved Roman villa near Chedworth. 

You’ll find plenty of classy eating places and craft shops in this 

charming, “olde worlde” region. 

3. The Welsh mining valleys: There’s a harsh side to British 

history alongside the fairy-tale one, and you’ll feel it in the old

mining valleys of south Wales. Drive over the stark mountains and 

view the rows of workers’ cottages, now painted in bright colours. 

Take the elevator down The Big Pit and learn how tough life used 

to be for the coal-miners. Then you could step even further back 

through history with a roam around Caerphilly Castle - but mind 

those spooky, spiral staircases. 

4. Vibrant Manchester: Visit the beating heart of the north 

of England. You’ll feel the buzz of Manchester life as soon as you 

arrive. Take a tram ride around town and check out the latest 

events at the many theatres and concert halls. You’ll find plenty of 

stand-up comedy and other fun shows in Manchester, and plenty 

of sport, too, as well as top-notch culture. 

5. The Lake District: Around the coastline from Manchester, 

you’ll find the romantic, hidden world of The Lake District. 

Climb the dramatic mountains and take a boat trip around beautiful 

Lake Windermere, the largest of the sixteen gleaming waters. 

Then you can ride through the magical scenery on a splendid, vintage 

steam train. 

6. Historic Edinburgh: Venture over the rugged border of 

Scotland - scene of many a historic battle - and head north to Edinburgh 

for another great experience. With the imposing castle on 

its great rock and bagpipe music in the air, you will know you’ve 

arrived. How about donning a kilt and joining in a Scottish dance 

reel? You’d certainly deserve a stick of delicious “Edinburgh Rock” 

after that. 

7. The wild Outer Hebrides: These remote Scottish islands 

offer an unspoiled beauty that’s second to none. It’s strange to 

think that President Trump’s mother grew up on one of them - 

the Isle of Lewis, far away from urban life and high society. Take 

a boat trip to the tiny island of Staffa and see the puffins nesting 

on the clifftops. 

8. York and the Yorkshire Dales: As you head back south 

to London, drop in on the ancient city of York. Step inside the resplendent 

York Minster, browse the little shops in the old Shambles 

district, then join an after-dark ghost-walk around the twisty, 

cobbled streets. Take a drive over Yorkshire’s wild moors and 

pretty dales, and make sure you try all the local cakes, pies and 

ales on your way through. 

There are plenty more special places to see while you’re over in 

Britain, not just in these parts but across the water in Ireland, too. 

Browse the sightseeing websites and ask fellow travelers for their 

recommendations. There’s something for everyone in the UK.

Delray Beach Marketing Cooperative 

Delray’s Sister Visits for the Holidays 

BY STEPHEN CHRISANTHUS 

Our Sister City of Miyazu, Japan came to visit us this past 

December, commemorating the 40th anniversary of our 

international partnership. The enthusiastic group of five, led by 

Mayor Shoji Inoue, enjoyed a week of warm greetings and sunshine. 

For those that are not familiar with the term, a Sister City relationship 

is a broad based, officially approved, long-term partnership 

between two communities in two countries. Sister 

City partnerships have the potential to carry out the widest possible 

diversity of activities of any international program, including every 

type of municipal, business, professional, educational and cultural 

exchange or project. Sister City programs are also unique in that 

they inherently involve the three main sectors in the community: 

local government, business, and a wide variety of citizen volunteers. 

Sister City of Delray Beach was created by the city commission 

in April, 1977 for the purpose of establishing a Sister City affiliation 

with Miyazu, Japan. In 1999, Sister Cities of Delray Beach 

added a partnership link with Moshi, Tanzania, East Africa. In 

2015 Delray became Sister Cities with Pesaro, Italy and then in 

2017, Aquin, Haiti. Sister Cities of Delray Beach promotes friendship 

and understanding between the citizens of Delray Beach, 

Florida and each of our Sister Cities around the world by encouraging 

cultural, youth, athletic and economic exchanges. 

“2017 marks the 40th anniversary of the sister city relationship 

between Delray Beach and Miyazu, Japan. The relationship 

began to honor George Morikami, who was born in Miyazu. He 

lived in Delray Beach and donated the land where the Morikami 

Museum and Japanese Gardens are located. We are honored that 

his grandnephew, Kazuaki Ida, visited Delray Beach along with 

Mayor Shoji Inoue of Miyazu,”says David Schmidt, President of 

Delray Beach Sister Cities. 

The Miyazu contingent spent 4 days touring the area and exploring 

the city. The group was given a golf cart tour of town 

by the Delray Beach Marketing Cooperative, highlighting all the 

different facets of Delray. They discussed economic development 

with local businesses at the Chamber of Commerce, met 

with Mayor Cary Glickstein, visited the Cornell Museum for a reception

Carol Eaton 


egulars | city people 

by diane feen | photo by melissa korman 

Mother Theresa Of Delray 

Wine bottles lined a side 

table at Carol Eaton’s house 

in Delray Beach. The holiday 

décor was all pervasive 

and the previous nights’ 

festivities were still in the air. 

“We just had our holiday party for the Ambassadors 

of the Chamber of Commerce. Everyone brought 

something, and I made four dishes,” said Eaton, who 

is as much a part of Delray’s lore as its lush sunsets. 

To know Eaton is to know that she is spread over Delray Beach 

like a thin film of tissue paper. Her commitment to Delray Beach and 

(its inhabitants) is huge and her heart is wide open to those in need. 

You could say she is like a fairy Godmother spreading golden dust 

over different organizations and causes. Her volunteer imprint is 

large, and the results are spectacular. As Eaton puts it, “Opening 

your heart to someone in the smallest way can make a big impact 

on someone’s day!” 

In Eaton’s case it’s not just a day that she impacts, it’s people’s 

lives. You can see it in the organizations that are supported by the 

grants she writes for the Delray Elks Lodge #1770. As her role of 

Treasurer and CFO, Eaton tapped into the Elks National Foundation 

Grants and now disperses them to local charities. She has written 

24 grants and helped to bring goodwill and funds to places like Boys 

& Girls Club, Miracle League, Caring Kitchen, The Milagro Center, 

AVDA and others. 

But that’s only part of Eaton’s fairy dusting efforts. She is currently 

the incoming Chair of the Delray Chamber Ambassadors that 

supports (and celebrates) new businesses. Eaton is also incoming 

Chair of the Delray Beach Initiative, a volunteer community organization 

that raises money to enhance the lives of local children. 

To say that Eaton’s life is made up of good deeds would be an understatement. 

She glows when the phone rings with people asking 

for money for various causes, and she gets excited with the endless 

possibilities that land at her feet. “I believe each of us should have a 

goal of doing whatever is possible to make a difference in the lives 

of people who are less fortunate.” 

Eaton practices what she preaches. 

That volunteer spirit began early in Eaton’s Delray life. She was 

a mother and full-time employee of a jewelry company when she 

started volunteering for the Pineapple Grove Mainstreet Program. 

In that capacity Eaton did fundraising for the Christmas Parade 

float, Share our Strength and Taste of the Grove. She also volunteered 

for the first Brew Festival and helped paint the 100 block in 

pastel hues with 50 other do-gooders. 

“Volunteering got into my blood immediately. I met so many 

people and enjoyed the feeling of camaraderie working together toward 

a common goal. You become part of a big happy family.” 

When it comes to happy families Eaton has this mile-marker aced 

in spades as well. Her 18-year-old daughter Nikki is a student at 

Florida Gulf Coast University and her husband Jim retired from the 

Post Office but keeps busy like his wife. “Moving to Delray was the 

best move I ever made beside marrying my wife. She is the most 

caring, loving person I’ve ever met.” 

Jim isn’t the only one who sings Eaton’s praises in exalted soprano 

range. “Anything Carol supports she puts passion, energy and 

ingenuity into, which is why she is appreciated by so many locals. I 

am grateful to have Carol as a very active member of the Chamber, 

engaged in our community, a volunteer, a neighbor and a friend,” 

said Kim Bentkover, Membership Director of the Delray Chamber. 

Eaton’s past volunteer activities include being on the PTA of her 

daughter’s school (S.D. Spady Elementary) and spearheading programs 

like the Business Banner, Adopt-A-Class and Matching Gifts. 

From 2005 to 2014 she volunteered for the Mark Gerretson Memorial 

Fishing tournament as Program Advertisement and Sponsor 

Chair. She increased profits for the fishing tournament by 600 

percent, which allowed them to use the funds to help other local 

charitable causes. 

In a Delray Police Department Community Service Commendation, 

Chief Joseph Schroeder said the funds Eaton raised not only helped 

their Holiday Toy Drive, but college scholarships, Cops Literary Program, 

Annual Easter Egg Hunt, Karate program, Delray Rocks Football 

Team and the 1st Annual Kids and Cops Summer Baseball Camp. 

“What goes unnoticed is your effort. You work tirelessly on the 

fishing tournament and countless hours of volunteer work to raise 

funds to ensure its success. That directly impacts the money we can 

give back to the community. You do not look for notoriety or recognition 

– you do this because you care about your community and its 

future,” said Chief Schroeder in 2007. 

Not much has changed since then. Last month pictures of Eaton 

surfaced on Facebook with her and Delray Beach Elks members 

packing goodies for the troops for their Delray’s Project Holiday. 

She also took part in delivering gifts and bikes to the Caridad Center 

with the Delray Beach Elks Club. Later in the week Eaton took 

part in the Delray Police “Heroes and Helpers” event that brought 

100 children to Target for Christmas gifts. 

“The Elks gave $2,500 towards supporting ‘Heroes and Helpers.’ I 

went to Target to watch 100 children being escorted by police officers 

into the store to buy their Christmas gifts! Gives me goose bumps!!” 

Much of what Eaton does in the community goes unnoticed by the 

public but not by those who know her. “Carol is a great friend of the 

Chamber and our community. You can always count on her to help 

whenever and wherever it’s needed. She is one in a million!” Said 

Patty Reed, Program Director for the Delray Chamber of Commerce. 

That is one reason she received the Ken Ellingsworth Community 

Service Award for 2013-2014. 

The awards and glowing letters may be significant in Eaton’s file 

folders, but out in the world she is a giant among men (or women). 

You could say those in her path are blessed by an angel.

Stout Braised Short Rib with Garlic Mashed potatoes and Broccolini 

Banyan Restaurant & Bar 

Culinary Excellence 

By diane feen | Photos by Banyan’s Restaurant 

The large majestic Banyan Tree that frames the parameters of 

Banyan Restaurant & Bar has a long history – 155 years to be 

exact. Its lore is one of stoic permanence meaning “Tree of Life.” 

It is with this steady life-line and enthusiasm that owners Joseph 

LoRe and Miles Moriarty celebrated the first anniversary 

of their illustrious Pineapple Grove restaurant and bar. From 

the outside it might look like a sleepy spot but from the inside it’s 

anything but. 

The interior is classic and classy with black and white patterned 

walls, comfy red banquettes and Baroque translucent chairs. The 

crystal chandeliers and colorful lighting make it a serene space 

with a Joie de Vivre that celebrates life, love and superb cuisine. 

Their food is seasonal and picked discerningly as if it were going 

into the kitchen of royalty. 

“We didn’t want to be like all the other restaurants. We wanted to 

simplify our menu and offer only the freshest ingredients. There is 

no freezer here,” said Moriarty, who comes from a celebrated restaurant 

family (they owned Minetta Tavern in New York). 

Owners LoRe and Moriarty have perfected the art of fine din- 

Soy Glazed Salmon with sticky rice patties and Bok Choy 


Brussels Sprouts glazed in a glazed ginger soy reduction with pancetta 

Sautéed Mushrooms cooked in rosemary, butter, olive oil, and garlic confit 

ing. They also introduced a new menu that reflects the discerning 

palate of their guests. Chef James has pulled out all the stops with 

dishes that are explosive in taste with a gentility of excellence. 

Their small plates are large in taste with a swoon factor that is 

explosive. Take the Brussels Sprouts for example. Chef James has 

created a masterpiece by adding a glazed ginger soy reduction and 

pancetta. These are not your mother’s Brussels Sprouts – they are 

made from the culinary Gods. The taste will have you savoring the 

moment and wondering, “how did they do this?” 

The answer is clearly that perfection is something the owners, the 

chef and two sous-chefs have collectively invented to wow diners. It 

seems to be working. “I come to Banyan five or six nights a week because 

the vibe is friendly, and the food is excellent. I really like the 

Salmon entrée, Chicken Liver Toast and Charred Vegetables (with 

Cauliflower Puree). I always get one of Rob’s signature drinks – especially 

“The Nice to Noyaux,” said Charles, a loyal Banyan regular. 

The philosophy that the customer dictates what is served has been 

their motto since they opened their doors a year ago. That is why 

Banyan Restaurant & Bar continues to grow in popularity and philanthropy. 

They recently catered an event at Art Basel in Wynwood 

for the Copperbridge Foundation, are a sponsor for the Delray Open 

and the Delray Chamber of Commerce Gala. 

Because of dishes like the Stout Braised Short Rib with Garlic 

Mashed potatoes and Broccolini, and the Bistro Filet (with mushroom 

bordelaise) Banyan has been hosting rehearsal dinners, office parties 

and milestone events for guests. The results have been spectacular. 

“We had five people here from New York last week. They ordered 

everything on the menu and ate it all. They thought it was wonderful,” 

said LoRe, who with Moriarty, are a steady presence in the restaurant. 

Both inherited divine recipes that have been passed down 

from generations and are now star players on the menu. 

Their Soy Glazed Salmon with sticky rice patties and Bok Choy 

is amazing. The taste and moist texture of this dish speaks volumes 

about the quality of the food and the precision of its creator. 

These are not just good dishes, they are great dishes with flavor 

that is boundless. 

They continue the tradition of their Banyan Burger made with 

Truffle Moliterno Cheese, Seared Foi Gras, Arugula and White Truffle 

Aioli on a Brioche bun with fresh cut Fries (decadence abounds 

here). They also have daily fish and pasta specials – such as Wild 

Boar Ragu served over Pappardelle Pasta or Orecchiette with Andouille 

Sausage and Mussels in a white wine sauce. 

Their Sautéed Mushrooms are legendary - cooked in rosemary 

butter, olive oil, garlic confit - with Maitake, Beech and Baby Portobello 

Mushrooms. Also a favorite – The Lamb Francis, made with 

mashed cauliflower and potato wedges. 

Though the food is superb (and consistent) the intimate environment 

and upbeat décor score points from everyone. LoRe and 

Moriarty carefully planned every detail of the restaurant to refine 

its presence among giants (in the area). The bar is lit with colorful 

LED lights, the ceiling with framed mirrors and the outdoor seating 

under the Banyan tree is romantic and enchanting. 

The Bar has also become a “Cheers” point of contact. It’s a friendly 

place with colorful persona, USB ports under the bar, hooks to 

hang purses, and bartenders who are adept at perfecting drinks to 

match your meal and personal preference. The new ‘Can You Fig It’ 

cocktail (with Fig-infused Bourbon, Turbinado, and Black Walnut 

bitters) will leave you with an “all is well” contentment. 

Other seasonal cocktails include Roseberry (Cranberry infused 

Vodka, apple cider, rosemary syrup, lemon juice and white balsamic) 

and ‘Only the FEW Breakfast Gin’ (tea Infused Gin, lemon, honey, 

lemon bitters with a splash of tonic). They also have an extensive 

selection of local tap and bottle beers, wine and spirits. “We’ve taken 

our signature cocktails to another level,” said Moriarty. 

Happy Hour is every day from 4pm to 7pm at the Bar (and community 

table) with appetizers, tap beers, wine and well drinks at a 

discount. Their Late-Night Menu is perfect for night owls with assorted 

savory flatbreads. There’s lunch everyday under the Banyan 

Tree (or inside) with live music Wednesday, Thursday, and most 

Saturday nights. 

Banyan Restaurant & Bar is a happy place that has perfected its 

menu, it’s ambience and its desire to be the best in the neighborhood. 

The people and décor will charm you and the food will have 

you dreaming from the afterglow. Their recipe for success lies in 

their desire to please everyone who enters. 

We think they have succeeded.

dining | GOOD LUCK FOODS 

10 Good Luck 

Foods For 2018 

Every New Year, people around the world eat specific foods to summon 

good luck for the next 365 days. While some traditions call for noodles 

and others call for fruit, all the edibles connote forward movement, 

prosperity and health. Whether you’re superstitious or not, you may 

find a favorite in this list of celebratory foods. And if no luck comes your 

way, at least you’ll go into the new year with a full belly. 

Long Noodles 

In Asian countries, it’s customary to eat 

long noodles, to signify longevity, on New 

Year’s Day. Since the noodles are never to 

be broken or shortened during the cooking 

process, the typical preparation for “Long- 

Life Noodles” is a stir-fry. 

Pork 

Some countries, like Cuba, Spain, Portugal, 

Hungary and Austria, pigs symbolize 

progress. Some say it’s because these 

animals never move backward, while 

others believe it’s in their feeding habits 

(they push their snouts forward along the 

ground when rooting for food). 

Round Fruits 

Though the number of pieces varies by 

region, eating any round fruit is a common 

New Year’s tradition. In the Philippines, 

the custom calls for 13, considered a lucky 

number; in Europe and the U.S., it calls for 

12, which represents the months in a year. 

Whole Fish 

Chinese cuisine experts say the Chinese 

word for “fish” sounds like the word for 

“abundance,” one of the many reasons fish 

has become a go-to good luck food. Also it’s 

important for the fish be served with the 

head and tail intact to ensure a good year, 

from start to finish. 

Pomegranate 

Pomegranates represent good luck in 

Turkey for many reasons: Their red color, 

which represents the human heart, denotes 

life and fertility; their medicinal 

properties represent health; and their 

abundant, round seeds represent prosperity 

— all things everyone hopes for in any 

fresh start. 

Greens 

From the coastal American South to Europe, 

people eat green leafy veggies — including 

kale, collards and cabbage — on 

New Year’s Day because of their color and 

appearance, which resembles paper money. 

Belief has it, the more you eat, the more 

prosperous you’ll be (and healthier, too). 

Lentils 

A popular New Year’s meal in Italy is 

cotechino con lenticchie (green lentils with 

sausage) because of the legume’s greenish 

color and coin-like appearance. Deeper into 

the myth: When cooked, lentils plump with 

water, symbolizing growing wealth. Lentils 

are also considered good luck in Hungary, 

where they’re preferred in a soup. 

Pickled Herring 

In Germany, Poland and Scandinavia, it’s 

believed that eating herring at the stroke 

of midnight will ensure a year of bounty 

— as herring are in abundance throughout 

Western Europe. Also, their silvery color 

resembles that of coins, a good omen for 

future fortune. 

Black-eyed Peas 

Considered good luck due to their pennylike 

appearance and abundance, these peas, 

enjoyed in the southern United States, are 

traditionally served in a dish called hoppin’ 

John. On the day after New Year’s Day, 

leftover “hoppin’ John” becomes “skippin’ 

Jenny,” meant to demonstrate frugality and 

promote prosperity in the new year. 

Cornbread 

A favorite throughout the year, cornbread 

is especially venerated as a New Year’s treat 

in the southern United States. Why? Its color 

resembles that of gold. To ensure extra luck, 

some people add extra corn kernels, which 

are emblematic of golden nuggets.

misc | ask the petxpert 

BY Bill Piechocki and Dr. Diane Sudduth, DVM 

Are our Pets in Danger 

From This Toxic Threat? 

We are constantly asked by our clients for reasons why their 

well-cared pets suddenly get sick, with vomiting and diarrhea 

being primary symptoms. Through our years of both 

practical and clinical experience and our extensive research, many 

of these episodes of illness have a core cause to be toxins. Ourselves 

and our pets are exposed to 100s to 1000s of chemicals daily. Most 

destroy the body at a cellular level. Many enter the body through respiration 

and the digestive tracts, hence the vomiting and diarrhea. 

The foods we ingest are the vehicles for eliminating these poisons. 

Today we’re faced with a chemical that is suddenly pervasive in 

our foods and environment. Surely, you have recently seen it in the 

news. It’s called glyphosate, an active ingredient in the herbicide 

Roundup as well as other brands. While used as a weed killer, it is 

patented as an antibiotic and when broken down, the word antibiotic 

means “anti-life.” Unfortunately, glyphosate is being detected 

in blood, breast milk and urine samples, as well as numerous foods 

such as oatmeal, bagels, coffee creamer, organic bread, and honey. 

The body is designed to naturally fight pathogens and to eliminate 

toxins as it should but research shows numerous chemicals, specifically 

glyphosate causes a disruption of these naturally protective 

mechanisms of the body. These chemical antibiotics added into the 

foods and our environment are killing the natural flora in the gut 

and the intestinal tract that breaks down foods into basic nutrients 

for use in the body. If this natural digestion process is altered by the 

glyphosate or any other synthetic drug, the process is changed. Now 

the body is imbalanced and not functioning naturally. 

Studies linking glyphosate to antibiotic resistance as well as 

causing harm to soil fungi are the latest nails in the coffin for 

Roundup, which was also deemed a probable carcinogen by the 

International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) in 2015. Monsanto 

continues to contest the determination, even as it has been 

publicized that they may have worked with a U.S. EPA official to 

stop glyphosate investigations. 

It’s frightening, considering the high cancer rates we are seeing in 

our pets. Every exposure to these known toxins takes our pets down 

the road of dysfunction. Sadly, most lawns in the United States have 

had treatments containing these products as well as dog parks, golf 

courses, and other public grounds. The danger is very real. 

What can we do to avoid and heal this damage to the body? 

Start with clean, species appropriate diets to build a strong immune 

system that will replace those dead and damaged cells with 

healthy ones. We can also look to herbs and botanicals that will 

help the body neutralize and eliminate these poisons. And, of 

course the most important thing is to avoid using these products, 

avoid areas you know that have been treated and cleanse the body 

after exposure. Toxins linger in the ground for years so cleanup is 

almost impossible. 

Next time your pet has a challenge, understand that they are usually 

responding to an exposure to poison and that the body is fighting 

back. Take charge of your pet’s health by being aware and informed.

misc | new year’s resolution fail 

5 

Reasons Most People Fail at 

Their New Year’s Resolutions 

(and How You Can Beat the Odds) 

Who doesn’t love getting a fresh start? For many people, January 

is the perfect time to shake off old vices and create some positive 

new habits. But good intentions don’t always translate into actual 

change. By February, the majority of resolution-setters have 

abandoned their new goals and fallen back into their old ways. 

Why does this happen? There are a number of common reasons 

why most people don’t stick to their New Year’s resolutions. 

If you make one of these mistakes, you’ll probably 

find yourself giving up on your resolutions, too. 

1. Not being realistic 

Shooting for the moon isn’t always the best strategy. In fact, sometimes 

it can prevent you from even getting off the ground. Realistically, 

almost no one can learn a new language in six months or become a 

runner overnight, but many people make overly-optimistic resolutions 

like these every year. If you’re too ambitious with your New Year’s resolutions, 

you’ll end up getting burned out before January is over. 

2. Making too many resolutions 

Even small resolutions can be hard to keep if you make too many of 

them. It’s easy to get overwhelmed if you try to change more than one 

or two habits at a time. Besides that, making a lot of different resolutions 

is a sign that you haven’t put much thought into each one, and 

it’s easy to give up on resolutions that aren’t meaningful to you. 

3. Not setting specific goals 

If your resolution is something like “lose weight” or “get better 

grades,” you aren’t likely to succeed. Why? Because these goals are 

vague and hard to track. Useful goals are specific and measurable - for 

instance, “lose 10 pounds by March” or “get an A in calculus.” 

4. Not making a plan 

Along with a specific goal, you need a plan. How are you going 

to turn your resolutions into reality? Many people fail at keeping 

their resolutions because they don’t turn their goals into specific 

action steps. 

5. Giving up too soon 

Perseverance is important for forming any new habit in your life, 

but many people throw in the towel on their resolutions as soon as 

something goes wrong. It’s important to stay flexible and to avoid getting 

discouraged too quickly, even if your resolutions are tougher to 

keep than you thought they’d be. Adjusting a goal to be more realistic 

is better than giving up on it completely. 

How Can You Beat the Odds and 

Keep Your Resolutions? 

Failing to keep New Year’s resolutions is very common - but the 

good news is that it’s not inevitable. A minority of people do stick to 

their resolutions every year, and if you’d like to be one of them, there 

are some things you can do to increase your odds of success. 

A) Set only resolutions that are meaningful to you. 

If you don’t really care about your resolutions, you won’t stick to 

them. Avoid choosing this year’s resolutions based on what you think 

will impress other people. Instead, choose goals that you’re deeply 

invested in. 

B) Plan for the long haul. 

Many people think of New Year’s resolutions as a quick fix for the 

previous year’s problems and bad habits. In reality, though, it takes 

time to create lasting changes in your life. Make your resolutions 

with the knowledge that you’ll need to work on them consistently, 

and adopt the mindset that if you fall off the wagon, you’ll climb 

right back on. 

C) Take baby steps. 

Every big achievement is made up of a series of small action steps. 

Break your goals down ahead of time, so you won’t get overwhelmed 

when the new year rolls around. When you transform a big resolution 

into a lot of small, doable steps, you’ll always know what to do next. 

D) Track and celebrate your progress. 

One of the best ways to stay on track is to look back at how far 

you’ve come. It might be hard to see how your small victories matter 

from moment to moment, but over time, those little wins really add 

up. Keep a log of all your progress, and reward yourself for meeting 

milestones on the way to your main goal. 

The Takeaway 

New Year’s resolutions get a bad rap because most people give up 

on them after a few weeks. But if you love setting goals for yourself 

at the start of the year, don’t give up on the idea of resolutions just 

yet. Resolutions can actually be a very useful tool. By taking the right 

approach and avoiding these five common mistakes, you might find it 

easier than you expected to keep your resolutions all year long.

Ways 

To Find 

A Date 

Being single is tough, and the 

bar scene can be exhausting. If 

you’re trying to meet a fun person 

for more than just a hook-up, try 

looking further than your local 

bar. Here are some strategies for 

meeting someone who might just 

be excellent relationship material. 

Let your friends know you’re looking 

Usually, the people you hang out with will attract other people you 

want to hang out with. That’s why meeting through friends is a great 

way to find a successful relationship. 

Married people and those in long-term relationships love to set people 

up. Discreetly let married friends know you’re looking, and you 

may just find yourself surrounded by interesting singles. 

Attend weddings 

Do you skip weddings because the celebration of someone else’s love 

makes you sad that you’re single? That is the wrong approach. 

Weddings are terrific places to meet other single people. Reply that 

you’ll be coming without a plus one, and then get ready to take on opportunities 

that present themselves. If you can, find out in advance who in the 

wedding party is single. 

Go someplace with a kid 

Admittedly, this works better for finding women than it does for 

meeting men. However, there are many single people of both genders 

with children. If you don’t have a kid of your own, ask to 

borrow a niece or nephew or a friend’s child for the afternoon, 

and head to places where kids and parents congregate. 

Encourage the child to play with kids whose parents look 

interesting to you, and keep an eye out for wedding rings. Kids 

are great conversation starters, so meeting should be a breeze. 


Take a class in something interesting 

Once you’ve finished school, you’ve lost a good source of single 

people. Take yourself back to the classroom by enrolling in 

something you enjoy. 

Even if it’s community adult education, you’ll meet people 

and learn something new. 

For even more opportunities, volunteer to teach a class about 

something you know. Specify that the course is for singles, and 

you’ll be in a perfect position. 

Go to church 

If you have spiritual beliefs that are important to you, or if you 

are interested in developing some, take yourself to a local religious 

location. A church, temple or another place of worship can 

be an excellent way to build a social circle and meet new people. 

Play a sport 

Your local community center or YMCA can direct you to 

sports leagues just for grown-ups. There may even be some 

specifically for singles. 

It’s okay if you’re not athletic. Choose something that sounds 

like fun, and do your best. 

Volunteer for a political campaign 

Are you passionate about politics? Try signing yourself up 

to work for a local political campaign. You’ll get thrown into a 

team of people who probably look at the world the way you do. 

Working closely with someone to achieve a common goal is a 

good way to start a relationship. 

Buy someone a coffee 

Going out for a morning coffee is a ritual that many people 

will not miss. Hang out at a local coffee shop, and check out the 

clientele. Offer to buy a coffee for someone who interests you. 

If you’re bold, you could even send a coffee to someone who 

is seated. 

Be friendly at the gym 

Maybe it’s an increase in heart rates or seeing people dressed 

in workout gear, but whatever the reason, the gym is a great 

place to find a date. 

The next time you’re working out, take out your headphones 

and look up from the treadmill. Make eye contact, smile and 

start conversations. 

Go places alone 

It’s fun to go out with a group of friends, but you might be 

making your dating life more challenging. You are much more 

approachable if you go places alone. 

See a movie by yourself now and then, or spend solo time at 

library or museum. You might just attract your soul mate. 

Meeting single people isn’t easy, but there’s a lot you can do to 

increase your chances of finding someone incredible. Try these 

10 tips, and maybe you’ll meet that person of your dreams.

misc | surprising facts about you 

6 

Surprising 

Facts You 

Didn't Know 

About You... 

You might think most facts about 

you are apparent and there’s not 

much more you can learn. 

However, some surprising details, although 

simple, may have slipped through 

the net when you learned about human 

functioning and behavior. The following data is 

likely to be a revelation. 

You can foretell the weather 

You probably know someone who swears 

he/she can predict the weather. This person 

might grumble about their aching knees or stiff 

neck and report their symptoms indicate lousy 

weather’s on the rise. No doubt, you think they 

are eccentric and humor them good-naturedly. 

However, it turns out your friend does have predictive 

powers. 

The pressure in the atmosphere drops significantly 

before terrible weather arrives. Next, the 

temperature alters and makes your body tissue 

expand, causing inflammation. When your tissues 

swell, aches and pains occur; this is especially noticeable 

as you grow older if you have arthritis, 

which turns you into a veritable barometer. 

Crescent moon nails reveal 

your health 

Crescent moons, also called lunulae, are the 

pale moon-shaped curves at the base of people’s 

nails. Your nails show a great deal about your 

health, and your lunulae or lack of them can reveal 

whether you might have renal failure, toxins 

in your body, or are prone to disease. Averagesized 

lunulae can indicate good health; compare 

yours to friend’s nails if you aren’t sure. 

Crying is good for you 

Many people try to retain a stiff upper lip and 

hold back tears when they are hurt. However, crying 

has a purpose and is good for you. When you 

stifle tears, your pain increases. It’s best to let tears 

flow to release stress. Also, your body produces 

endorphins to anesthetize pain, and you start to 

feel better when you have a good cry. Thus, don’t 

be afraid to turn on the waterworks when you’re 

upset to allow your anxiety to dissipate. 

Intelligent people dream a lot 

(and you dream more than you think) 

Do you have loads of dreams most nights 

and can’t wait to talk about them in the morning? 

If so, you might be highly intelligent since 

studies show people with high IQs dream more 

than people who aren’t as smart. However, if 

you don’t dream much, don’t worry, this doesn’t 

mean you’re unintelligent. Research also reveals 


many people don’t remember their dreams, so perhaps you 

dream often after all. 

Creating the intention to remember dreams before falling 

asleep, and keeping a journal in which to record your nighttime 

imaginings by your bedside, will improve recall. 

Your pupils dilate to show you 

hate someone 

What makes your heart beat faster, gives you butterflies in 

your stomach, and causes your pupils to dilate? The answer is 

love, of course. However, hate has the same effect. Excitement 

and fear produce similar reactions, including enlarged pupils 

which help you gain the broadest view possible of what’s happening 

in your environment. 

Talking to yourself makes you smart 

Just like you think people who predict the weather with 

their aches and pains are mad, you probably imagine those 

who chat to themselves are nutty too. Well, apparently, talking 

aloud to yourself can make you smarter, so feel free to 

verbalize things you want to remember for greater recall and 

have a heartfelt, private conversation when you wish to increase 

cognitive functioning. 

You might think you understand all there is to know about 

you, but the chances are you’re unaware of plenty of facts. 

Now, at least, you realize you can cry and chat to yourself 

with wild abandon without being labeled crazy. You recognize 

the aches that accompany aging can also come with 

benefits; if your arthritis flares, you’ll know you should wrap 

up warm and take your umbrella with you when you leave 

the house. Also, dreaming a lot makes you smarter, and the 

state of you lunulae can warn you of poor health. Also, when 

you find someone abhorrent, your pupils are large and attractive, 

so you get an eyeful of them.

misc | HUMOUR 

What 

Will Your 

Tombstone 

Say About 

You? 

by Greg Hanson 

It’s never too early to think about the legacy you will 

leave. Whether you anticipate several decades or just a 

short time remaining on this earth, how you live now will 

impact how you are remembered after you are gone. 

The epitaphs on tombstones have often been used to tell 

more than the name of the deceived, the date of birth, 

and the date of death. At times, tombstones have included 

additional—even humorous—details about the person. 

One such epitaph apparently pays homage to the profession 

of a deceased dentist: “Here lies John D. Cudd, DMD, filling his 

last cavity!” 

In New Mexico, another tombstone played on the name of 

the dearly departed: “Here lies Johnny Yeast. Pardon me for not 

rising.” Johnny (or perhaps his family) apparently had a sense 

of humor. 

Not all epitaphs are flattering. An eighteenth-century tombstone 

in Massachusetts supposedly acknowledges the deceased’s 

propensity for gossip. “Here lies a silent clay Miss Arabella 

Young, who on the 21st of May began to hold her tongue.” 

What will your tombstone reveal about the kind of person 

you were? Will it show your love for family? Will it acknowledge 

your involvement in your community? Will it describe 

your devotion to your faith? Will you be remembered the way 

you want to be remembered? 

If you want your epitaph to say good things about you, you 

must earn it by the way you live now. How you will be remembered 

after you die depends on the compassion, generosity, and 

self-sacrifice you exhibit during your lifetime. Do not wait too 

long to begin building your legacy; live today as you would like 

to be remembered then.
