In my house we keep very late hours. I don’t know how this pattern developed and took hold. Growing up we were always in bed at a reasonable time. But in my little lay of land in Cedarhurst lights are burning half the night long. I used to try to get my teen daughters into bed at an hour that would enable them to have a decent night’s sleep, which, I lectured, was necessary to functioning at an ultimate level. However, with after school extra curricular activities, new programs and projects always on their calendars and loads of homework and test studying, not to mention plenty of phone and computer conversations with friends, I eventually threw up my hands and gave up. It wasn’t like my lights were out at eleven. Or twelve. Or one. My mother always assured me that one day I would need sleep and gratefully tumble into bed early, even voluntarily take naps on a shabbos

afternoon. Well that day has yet to arrive. So our house still bops while others snooze in silence. Surprisingly then, several days ago, early evening, a wave of fatigue blew though our home and simultaneously struck each one of us. For the first time in, well, forever, we all decided to turn into bed early. Each for individual reasons felt tired enough to call it a night and unprecedented - by eleven PM were upstairs and under covers. Not forty-five minutes later the phones rang both cell and household. It was our good friend and neighbor sharing the exciting news that her son had just gotten engaged and - no pressure - if we wanted to walk over for a quick l’chaim they would love to see us. My husband, who claims to be a poor sleeper and never gets a good night sleep, mumbled a

Cramped and crooked - what has become my usual posture when getting out of bed - I made my way to the closet and stood staring at the railroad rack of hangers to my right. I hoped to be back in bed within fifteen minutes and was not even going to unzip my make-up bag. I needed to throw something on that was easy and comfortable but that would not look like I had, literally, just tumbled out of bed. A no-brainer. I reached for my black pleated skirt. A sweater

True to my intentions, having given hugs, kisses and big mazal tovs all around, I was back in my closet hanging up my pleated black skirt not twenty minutes later. As I reached for the light switch to call it a night once again, I realized that that skirt had been a lifesaver on more than one recent occasion. I had worn it to a matchmaking event one

Continued from page 14 evening just last week when I was coming down with a cold and felt a little lousy. It was going to be a late night and I would be on my feet for a long stretch of time. I needed as much coziness and comfort as I could find to accompany me on the outing and it was the natural choice. It fell in a swing a little below my knees and was dressy enough to show I had made an effort but the soft fabric and elastic waist felt like home. Even on stuffed shabbos afternoons when walking to visit my parents or heading to hear a local

I would imagine if there were photos taken of me at various locales over the last few months that black pleated skirt would have a starring role in almost every shot. But here’s the kicker. My sister gave me that skirt just a season ago. And although it has fast become my favorite fashion staple, it hadn’t even made my wardrobe’s

FROM THE PSYCHOLOGIST’S NOTEBOOK: On Birth Order By: Shoshana Karasick, Ph.D.
When asked to bring in a baby picture for their eighth grade year-book, many youngest children are hard pressed to find a suitable picture. During the hunt, these youngest children will usually find hundreds of pictures of their older siblings wearing adorable and fashionable outfits and wonder why they are wearing mismatched hand me downs in the two pictures that they finally dig up of themselves. This is a reflection of a common parenting phenomenon: oldest children get full parental time and attention. As each successive child enters the picture, parents usually become more easy-going, less anxious, and have less attention to allot to each child. Therefore, youngest children are usually the ones with the fewest pictures in the photo albums. Intuitively parents and children recognize that birth order has an impact on personality. However, much of scientific research in the psychological community has not supported the findings of a

strong birth order effect. One of the reasons that research in the field is challenging is because there are so many different variables in families that are difficult to control when studying impact of birthorder. Despite the lack of hard-core science supporting the effects of birth order, these theories remain popular in pop-psychology because they resonate with peoples’ experiences. Who doesn’t know a spoiled youngest child or a driven, ambitious oldest child? Despite the weakness in the scientific literature regarding birth order, in “real life” it seems that birth order definitely has an impact in how parents raise their children and on the development of their children’s personalities. Awareness of these issues can help mitigate some of the unwanted effects of parenting with relation to birth order. It is reputed that first-borns often exhibit many of the following traits: natural leadership, high achievement, perfectionism, and dependability. They can also be bossy, studious, and conscientious. Interestingly, 21 out of the first 23 American astronauts were firstborns, and 52% of American presidents were oldest children, with most of the others being the firstborn sons in the family. Eldest children have the dubious distinction of being the ones who are “experimented” on by their parents in terms of what does and doesn’t work well when raising children. Alfred Adler, the psychologist who was one of the first theorists to suggest that birth order influences personality, thought that oldest children have it the hardest as compared to the other siblings. Parents very often have too-high expectations for their oldest children and make demands that are unreasonable. When parenting eldest children, it is important to keep several things in mind. Firstly, parents should moderate expectations for these children and not expect perfection. Children who are peoplepleasers will work very hard to match parental expectations and will feel devastated if they fail. This can lead to perfectionist tendencies and obsessive qualities. Sometimes it can be detrimental to remind them to “set an example” for their younger siblings. Oldest children may interpret a remark like that as “we expect you to be perfect but your siblings don’t have to be” – and of course, no one appreciates a guilt-trip. Oldest children should be encouraged to be children, to relax and play and not have too many responsibilities related to their younger siblings, they are not built-in babysitters. That being said, all children in the family, including the oldest, should be given age-appropriate chores and be

praised when they complete them. Middle children often get a bad rap and may easily get lost in the sibling shuffle. Middles have to try extra hard to get their share of their parents’ attention and therefore their behavior may range from one extreme, such as rebellious acting out, to another, i.e. being a people pleaser. Due to their position in the family, middle children are often good negotiators and peacekeepers, sociable, flexible, generous, independent, and easygoing. They may also feel that life is unfair and that they are not as loved as their other siblings. When

parenting middle children it is important to make them feel special and noticed. They should be encouraged to develop their own unique talents. This can be especially beneficial if they excel at something different than their siblings. It is important to set aside time to talk to middle children and to let them know that what they say is valued and that they are being heard. While handme-down clothing may make financial sense, it is vital to sometimes buy middles new items of their own. Lastly, parents should keep photo albums

Lastly, youngest children are the ones who have the most experienced parents. Either because of their parents’ experience, or because their parents have run out of energy, youngest children are the least disciplined in the family. Older siblings will watch with a mixture of fascination and jealousy as their youngest sibling gets away with things that the oldest siblings never could. Youngest children

are often known for having a good sense of humor, good personal interpersonal skills, and for being outgoing and creative. They may however, be excessive risk takers, spoiled and financially irresponsible. Parents of youngest children should make sure to hold them responsible for their actions and discipline them when necessary. These children should be given age appropriate responsibilities, just like their older siblings, and should be accountable for completing them. Finally, as cute as some of their behaviors are, youngest children should be discouraged from

Beauty Bulletin - Fall Fashion! by: Naomi Scheier
It is fall. Time to take stock of what is new and what we have to get rid of. It is always good to start the new season fresh. It is a great time to clean your closet. If you haven’t worn something in a year, it is time to give it away. You could donate your clothes to charity or bring your clothes to a consignment shop. Find one in this issueue. Now that your closet is clean and fresh, it is time to add some great new styles. Remember,
enough so it won’t clog pores or cause breakouts while giving you sun protection you need all year long. For mature skin, try Botanic Facelift Firming Cream. It has active plant extract like ginkgo which replenishes lost moisture in the skin. Before you apply your foundation, don’t forget primer. Primers are used as a smoothing and protective base which provides lasting hold, brightens, evens skin tone and fills in pores.
Hair and Make-Up by Naomi Scheier
when you go shopping, get only what you need and what you will wear. Now it is time to freshen up your beauty regimen. After a long summer of heat and sun wreaking havoc on your skin, and our all over health, it is time to pamper our skin for Fall. To get that glow back and refresh your skin, try Triple Berry Smoothing Peel by Renee Rouleau. It contains Salicylic Acid which is anti inflammatory and encourages shedding. For daily washing, try a vitamin wash which gently cleanses your skin. Find one that contains Angelica Root Extract, which soothes skin and constricts pores. Always moisturize your skin after cleansing. If your skin is fair, use Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Lightweight Sunblock Lotion. It is lightweight

Foundation primers give your face that perfect canvas for makeup. For eyes, try a shimmering gold eye shadow. It is a nice alternative to brown and gives your eyes a “pop”. Keep your eyebrows full and natural, don’t over tweeze. For sparse eyebrows, you can fill in with an eyebrow pencil that matches your hair color. For an all over glow without the sun, bronzer is your best bet. Try Smashbox Halo Hydrating Perfect Bronzer. For a pop of color to add freshness to your face, Stila Lip and Cheek Stain in Raspberry Crush is a good choice. Don’t forget that the most important beauty accessory is a smile. Keep smiling and have a great fall. NAOMI

Start with crystal chandelier, and remarkable effects are sure to follow. Should you choose a chandelier in the courtly tradition of opulence? Should it be a playfully vintage chandelier with droplets of color crystal fruit? A chandelier disguised as a massive crystal sculpture? An effusion of crystal flowers and vines in the form of a chandelier? All these possibilities and more are yours, if you choose Schonbek. Stop by and see our collection

From Soup to Nuts: New Israeli Food In this new year what could be more fashionable than bringing to our tables the sumptuous color, variety and history of cuisine from Israel? The Book of New Israeli Food by Janna Gur (Shocken), beautifully illustrated by Eilon Paz, is a stunning coffee table quality volume that captures the rich culture of Israel in delicious, easy-to-follow recipes, including some creative interpretations of classics by celebrated Israaeli chefs. Below, a few mouth-watering samples
without oil, until they are golden-brown. 7. Mix the couscous with the roasted vegetables. Add the pine nuts, onions and basil and toss everything together. Sprinkle more olive oil and serve immediately.
COUSCOUS AND ROASTED VEGETABLES SALAD Couscous is a great base for hearty and healthy salads. This one doesn’t keep well and should be served immediately. Ingredients (serves 6) 1 lb 2 oz instant couscous, medium or coarse grain 1 eggplant, cut into 1 inch cubes 2 zucchini, sliced 2 sweet peppers (one red, one yellow), seeded and cut into large chunks 10 whole cloves garlic, unpeeled 3 cloves garlic, crushed 1/2 cup olive oil Salt and freshly ground black pepper 3 tablespoons pine nuts 1 red onion, sliced 1 small bunch basil leaves, cut into strips 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F 2. Prepare the instant couscous according to the manufacturer’s instructions. 3. Arrange the eggplant, zucchini, peppers and unpeeled garlic cloves in a baking dish lined with baking paper. 4. Mix the olive oil with salt, pepper and crushed garlic and pour over the vegetables. Toss lightly to mix the sauce with the vegetables. 5. Roast the vegetables in the oven for 20 minutes or until golden. Cool slightly. 6. Roast the pine nuts in a hot frying pan,

CHREIME - NORTH AFRICAN HOT FISH STEW Chreime made from grouper, amberjack or some other fine fish is featured at Rosh Hashanah and Passover dinners in the households of North African Jews (from Morocco, Libya, Algeria, Tunisia), but the sauce is so delicious and dominant that inexpensive fish may be used. Indeed, everyday versions of chreime prepared with cheaper kinds of fish can be found in market eateries and workers kitchens, and of course at home. Bear in mind that the fish should be juicy when ready, so the cooking time must be adapted to the type of fish: the leaner the fish, the shorter the cooking cycle.

Eco-fashion is one of the most compelling topics in fashion today. Although the roots of eco-consciousness are often linked to the environmentalist movement and hippie styles of the 1960s, fashion’s environmental and ethical accountability prior to the mid-twentieth century is rarely considered. Eco-Fashion: Going Green explores fashion’s complex and multi-faceted relationship with the environment, discussing both bad and good ecological practices of the past 250 years. Presented chronologically and featuring more than 100 garments, accessories, and textiles, the exhibition uses contemporary methods for “going green” as a framework to study the past. Each object on display touches upon one or more of six major themes, including: the re-purposing and recycling of materials, material origins, textile dyeing and production, quality of craftsmanship, labor practices, and the treatment of animals. The re-purposing of textiles is often considered the most responsible mode of eco-fashion. In the nineteenth century, dresses were sometimes reworked to correspond to changing silhouettes - a testament to the lasting value of textiles. Today, numerous designers engage in methods of “upcycling,” creating fashionable, new garments from worn materials. Practices associated with growth of natural fibers or the manufacture of synthetics result in some of fashion’s most environmentally destructive consequences. For example, the cultivation of cotton can be especially damaging, often employing dangerous chemicals and pesticides that belie the fiber’s “natural” reputation. As these and other ecological concerns have increasingly come to light, the availability of organic cotton, grown without harmful chemicals, has expanded dramatically.
Everyday * Dressy* Two Great Locations * Ultra Customer Service
Waste materials from textile dyeing and production have historically resulted in some of the most conspicuous forms of air and water pollution. In the nineteenth century, some dyes contained highly toxic chemicals, such as arsenic. Today, there are a number of sustainable dyeing practices, ranging from technology-based digital and heat transfer printing to the rediscovered art of hand-dyeing. Quality craftsmanship, convertibility, and uniqueness are sometimes viewed as key to the creation of clothing with lasting value and emotional connectivity - effectively reacting against the “fast fashion” cycle. While the couture craftsmanship of the past is usually prohibitively expensive today, the offering of luxurious, sustainable goods is the objective of several leading eco-fashion labels.
The health and treatment of industry workers plays a key role in the historical roots of eco-fashion. In the United States, garment workers’ unions were established to ensure fair labor practices and worker safety. More recently, production outsourcing has raised concern about the treatment of workers overseas. As an alternative, some eco-designers strongly advocate local production initiatives. The treatment of animals in producing fashion has long been a subject of debate, and the use of fur, feathers, and animal skins in fashion has been viewed as both luxurious and barbarous. As the debate continues, many of today’s designers use ethically-sourced furs, while others utilize a variety of cruelty-free alternatives. Curated by Jennifer Farley and Colleen Hill.

GRIN AND BARE IT If there were random snapshots taken of you over the course of time what favorite fashion item would you be seen wearing most frequently? Black tights and black turtleneck!! Maybe a great piece of costume jewelry to perk It up. C.B. The only item that actually was in style since the 80’s and is still an all time favorite are my hoop earrings. I’ve been wearing them since my teens! They always look cool. B.H. BLACK (lol).
B.K.
Sunglasses in any season. Nothing fancy or expensive but usually big and black. I wear them for driving all year long and most of the time when I’m outside. R.S. BY APPOINTMENT • 718.972.1866
Fit Flops. Don’t ask me what I wore before they were invented a few years ago but since I tried a pair a couple of summers ago I have been living in them. Only when the weather really turns cold do I sadly put them away but nothing I wear in the winter months is as comfortable. M.A. Apparently my black cloth and patent leather riding cap. It’s hard for me to find casual hats that are comfortable and look good but I didn’t realize just how often I wear that cap until I went through a few albums recently. It’s like I own nothing else! T.Y. No brainer....the little black dress.
J.J.
Black in every season. That’s me in the pictures. Trying to be invisible every time. G.A. Denim skirt, but that hasn’t been considered a fashion item since the seventies. E.A. During a certain period of my life my white plastic knee-high go-go boots. E.H.

Sunglasses, never left home without a pair! B.G. A gold necklace given to me by my parents for my 16th birthday. In addition to the obvious sentimental value, it is a great accessory. I don’t like much bling, and it seems to go with almost everything I wear. H.R. Don’t know if it’s a fashion item, but unless I cannot absolutely wear it, I always wear my Hizmme name necklace. It’s had many chains
over the years but the name piece is over 50 years old. E.W. BOOTS. These boots were made for walking... C.W. A denim skirt!

My handmade gorgeous Israeli necklaces and earrings! O.R.

My brown leather jacket. I was nervous at first wondering whether I could pull it off or not, but the more I wore it the more compliments I got, so it obviously became my favorite fashion item. O.D. Anything black!
My black, suede high-heeled boots (go with almost everything) in the winter and my “sensible� and oh-so-comfortable, flat gold sandals in the summer (also go with almost everything). T.B.
O.S. A jean skirt!
