A book of many gifts.

Fri, 20 Jul 2001 12:44:04 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - From the very first page it is apparent that Edward Ball is a gifted writer. His background as a journalist for The Village Voice is perhaps not typical for the writer of a genealogical and historical tome. Having read my share of family...

Time-tripping at the Cloisters

Fri, 5 Jan 2001 18:17:06 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - I was determined not to be party again to another Cloisters drive-by, seeing the sign off Riverside Drive and impulsively zipping up the exit ramp into Fort Tryon Park, only to be disappointed because the museum was about to close for the day...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - While visiting the Fort Lee Historical Park in New Jersey for the first time several years ago, I ambled down one of the lovely trails, hand-in-hand with my loving husband, toward the palisades overlooking the Hudson River. Suddenly I stopped dead in my...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - Despite numerous requests to have this item added to the Health & Beauty > Health > First Aid category, I have had no response from the powers that be. Therefore, I'm placing the review here to hopefully get the information out to people...

State-of-the-Art, and Stylish too!

Thu, 16 Nov 2000 16:41:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - I can honestly say that this is one product (handsome as it is) that I could live without. In fact, when I ripped open the happy birthday wrapping paper and lifted the kettle out of the box, I really didn't think I'd use it right away, since I...

Feel like a kid again!

Wed, 15 Nov 2000 12:42:21 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - By my not-always-accurate calculations, it had been around 30 years since I'd been to see The Christmas Show at Radio City Music Hall. It was a school trip to see Herbie the Love Bug. There had been trips with my parents--some of my...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - One thing is certain... when the clicker is in my husband's hands, he will stop surfing on any of the several PBS channels where Norm Abram is at work in his Yankee Workshop. It doesn't matter what project is on the work bench, the...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - I learned early on to be careful about who I wanted to tell about my new Earth Machine. Just mention the word "compost" and it was enough to clear a room--you'd think I was discussing the lost art of latrine-digging!

Mix STOMP with muppets and it's got to be fun!

Wed, 18 Oct 2000 13:36:35 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - Flash back to 1998, when my birthday fell about a month before the due date for my third baby. I had asked for tickets to see the new IMAX movie (Everest) which was opening at the Lincoln Square theater in Manhattan. The movie was all we...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - In 1981 I received a package from Seattle Film Works (SFW). It contained a roll of film and a brochure explaining their service and film quality. The brochure went on to explain that before the movie "Little Big Man," all movie...

I lost my mind at Nauset Beach!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - Once you are on the Cape, there is a beach to the north or south, or, once you turn the corner past Brewster and Chatham, to the east or west. Each has its own beautiful features and personality. Early in the week we discovered Sea Gull Beach, on...

Barnstable Recreation Skate Park

Fri, 18 Aug 2000 15:41:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - Traveling with teens is tough, no matter the destination or time of year. It's pretty obvious before we ever leave the house that either we will provide them with constant, expensive entertainment, or they will try their best to torture us with their...

Lions and Tigers and Bears!

Sat, 5 Aug 2000 09:30:55 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - The first time I heard of Space Farms, I wondered if there were actually critters brought back from the moon, or maybe some kind of extra-terrestrial creatures we could see in northwest New Jersey.

No chance. Space Farms Zoo and Museum is...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - One of my earliest memories was a trip I took with my family to The Land of Make Believe. I clearly remember a forest of candy canes, a friendly scarecrow who not only said "Hello" to me but commented on what a pretty color my dress was...

Wed, 26 Jul 2000 18:29:05 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - When my first two children were born, there were very few options in the category of nursing wear. In the maternity departments of Sears or other large department stores, one could find a nursing bra, but that was about it. By attending La Leche League...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - I was pregnant with my third child when I was introduced to Super Baby Food by my friend Denise (who wrote the longest note to Ruth as part of the Forward to the Second Edition). Denise raved so much about all the information found in the...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - The year was 1983 and we had been invited by some college friends to join them on a canoe trip to a place I had never heard of... Skinner's Falls. We met at 8 a.m. at the McDonalds on Route 23 in New Jersey. We continued towards High Point, down into...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - As we were leaving "Terrific Twos" story time at the local public library, a colorful book caught the eye of my daughter and she picked it up.

"Yes!" ... so we checked it...

"What's said is said," a beautiful film!

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - Ever since I first saw Labyrinth in the mid-1980's on either HBO or one of the movie channels, I have been mesmerized at the craftsmanship and creativity. It's my own fantasy that Jim Henson (Director), George Lucas (Executive Producer), Terry...

Sat, 20 May 2000 04:15:20 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - Sir Derek Jacobi is by far one of the finest actors I've ever watched on the big or little screen. When I learned that I might have a chance to see "Brother Cadfael" in person, well, I made it pretty clear that we were going! I got my...

Thu, 13 Apr 2000 19:07:12 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - When I saw Mr. Safire on one of the network morning shows the week this book was released, I was intrigued at the idea of taking facts and events this country's founding fathers took part in, and retelling the story as fiction. I put it on my "wish...

Sun, 9 Apr 2000 09:26:17 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - This opinion was originally written and placed in the wrong category, because there is an electronic game version of the classic game show. Since then, I've noticed that whoever is writing the questions for Millionaire learned how to punctuate by...

Fri, 7 Apr 2000 15:31:43 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - I'm old enough to have seen the show three times when I was in high school, so when I heard that Superstar was coming back to Broadway, immediately the music popped into my head and I've been humming all the tunes since! There was a tiny bit of...

Fantastic Getaway!

Mon, 28 Feb 2000 11:23:17 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author sarahgutch - Travelling to Block Island, for me, is like a trip back in time... deep into the richest memories of my childhood.

It's a place so close yet so far. From my home in NJ I could conceivably leave at about 5 in the morning and make the 9 o'clock...
