were behind glass or ropes—to be seen, but not touched. “We were an instant success,” says The Magic House president Beth Fitzgerald, who has headed the innovative, hands-on children’s museum since its inception, when she took the job right out of college. Although a lot has changed since that time—its footprint has expanded tenfold, and more than 12 million pairs of feet have walked its halls—one thing has certainly stayed the same: “From the start, the museum has been committed to supporting the underserved, to enriching the lives of all children and families,” Fitzgerald says. Access for All, funded by donations and general admission fees, is the museum’s program to provide The Magic House experience for free to foster and military families, Big Brother-Big Sister pairs, Title 1 schoolchildren and organizations for youths with special needs. Last year, 85,000 individuals benefited from the program, either receiving free or reduced admission, or being served through community outreach programs such as The Magic House ‘satellite’ in North County’s St. John community. Additionally, the museum has brought joy to more than 16,000 visitors on special free nights. “Our board realized 10 years ago that [the museum] was just sitting there at night, which was such a waste,” Fitzgerald says, adding that The Magic House was open to schools 120 nights last year and even provided transportation for students. “This is the reason why I became so involved—to help make sure we have the means to let all children come,” says The Magic House committee chair Linda Hunter, who also is on the board and has been gala chair twice. With today’s emphasis on science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), Hunter says it’s even more important to extend The Magic House reach to students who might not have as much exposure to those disciplines. As for the satellite location in St. John, Fitzgerald says the original idea was born of a small, transportation-themed Magic House exhibit that opened at St. Louis Lambert International Airport a couple of years ago. That has been followed by a chess-themed offshoot—Kings, Queens and Castles—established last month on a 3,000-square-foot floor of St. John Municipal Center, where it will stay until Aug. 11. In addition to the fun exhibit with a castle and drawbridge, oversized chess pieces and dress-up options, the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis is hosting chess camps there this summer. Admission is completely free for everyone, regardless of ability to pay. Fitzgerald adds that The Magic House is exploring other possible satellite locations as part of its strategic plan to bring exhibits to underserved areas. On Oct. 13, the beloved Kirkwood landmark hosts its annual gala, The Magic Ball, which supports the Access for All initiative. This year, comedian, magician and St. Louis native Justin Willman will provide the evening’s entertainment, themed around the mystique of Friday the 13th. The Magic Ball takes place at Peabody Opera House and is presented by Edward Jones with major support from Emerson, Boeing, Monsanto, Paric and Scottrade Inc.

from the editor's desk This will be my last official editor’s letter. That’s because I’m moving into a different role at T&S, Editor Emeritus, handing over the day-to-day operations to our very capable managing editor, Karyn Williams. She will direct our contributors, edit the paper and handle inquiries about everything from wedding coverage to nonprofit news—may The Force be with her. But I will still be with readers every week in a column called Dorothy About Town. There I plan to share my thoughts about St. Louis comings and goings, interesting events and general minutiae, big and small, pretty much the way I have been doing for the past couple of decades. Or as our publisher likes to say, “You’ll be our T&S ambassador out in the community.” I’ll still have an email on the T&S server, dweiner@townandstyle.com, where organizations can share with me their upcoming events, guest speakers, awards and other good news. Only now I’ll be checking it every day instead of every minute. The paper will be in good hands, and I will have achieved my lifelong goal of one day escaping from my desk! I’ve heard there’s life beyond work. I’m going to find out if that’s true.

A glimpse at what’s going on around St. Louis and beyond.

I MISS MY PARENTS.

I know that is not the best way to start a humor column, but this is the first year neither of them has been alive for Mother’s or Father’s Day, so everything just feels a little off. Their passing has had a few unexpected effects on me. First, I now realize I am an adult. Yes, finally, at the age of 57, it’s official. Why? Because I can’t say ‘Let me check with Mom, she might know.’ She could remember whether I had the mumps, remind me of people’s birthdays and tell me when my voice got a little too loud. The second odd thing is, I have started acting clingy with my siblings. Trust me when I say that is not something ANY of them wants. I drop by my brother Dennis’ office to say ‘hi,’ and I can tell he really just wants to get back to work, not chat with me. It is not enough to have lunch with Tim and John, I make them go see a movie, too. Michael has his daughters in town and I crash every function. And then there is my sister Teresa, who I suspect might be screening her phone calls. I need to come up with a scheme for getting them to interact with me without seeming so darn needy. Of course, I already have an idea. Everyone in my family is funny and opinionated. (Although I am the funniest.) So, I thought it might be entertaining if I get them to share their advice with readers occasionally. I really miss my old Backtalk column, and this is a way to recapture some of that. I could call it, Yep, That’s My Sister! or Let’s Check with Mom! I could ask them something I might have asked my mom and then communicate their response. (We’ll have to start with my sister because my brothers think I’m nuts, and it might take me a while to convince them this is a good idea.) For example: Q: My daughter is embarrassed by the way her father dresses. He wears lots of bright colors, all at the same time, none of which really go together. Should I step in? “Patty, pick your battles. Compared to your father, Carey could be in GQ. Remember Dad’s style of plaids, stripes, brown belt, topsiders, horn-rimmed glasses and hair slicked back with Brylcreem? Really, she has nothing to complain about. If she is truly bothered, she can always walk 10 paces ahead and no one will know they’re together.” Q: Am I a bad mother because my kids won’t write a formal thank-you note for gifts they receive? “As mothers, we like to think buying monogrammed stationery for our kids beginning in grade school would be the subtle hint they need to write those notes. And then we find boxes of them stuffed in drawers and closets, and we realize Grandma never got the note. You can only do so much, and I was more concerned about them putting the toilet seat down. You might be a bad mother, but not for this. Are we finished? I was enjoying my book.” My scheme worked. My sister spent 30 minutes with me, giving me the above ‘advice from Mom.’ I really could have come up with it myself, but her involvement made me feel a little less parent-less, and I don’t think my sister noticed the clinginess. As much. CONTACT PATTY AT PHANNUM@TOWNANDSTYLE.COM.

The new outpatient services building at ST. LUKE’S HOSPITAL has been named in honor of the Desloge family, specifically Mr. and Mrs. Theodore P. Desloge Jr. The $40 million, five-story structure was completed in December 2016. The couple provided the lead gift for the hospital’s Advancing Excellence with Exceptional Care Campaign. Bravo to hometowner DANNY MEYER, famed NYC restaurateur, on his latest accolade: the 2017 Julia Child Award! The award comes with a $50,000 grant, which Meyer has directed to the hunger-relief nonprofit Share Our Strength. The first non-chef to earn the honor, Meyer was recognized for his innovative business practices and longtime devotion to food security for the needy. He will be fêted at a gala Oct. 26.

Happy BIG Birthday to RUTH STEWARD, who turned 109 July 15 and is believed to be the oldest living native St. Louisan! Stewart, who is a resident of Friendship Village Chesterfield, graduated from Beaumont High School in 1926 (the school closed in 2014). An accomplished pianist, she has performed at Kiel Opera House (now Peabody Opera House) and the Fox Theatre and still plays piano daily! Husch Blackwell partner JEFF JENSEN has been named to serve as

U.S. Attorney in St. Louis,

pending confirmation by the U.S. Senate. He was among three candidates considered for the prestigious appointment. Congratulations!

Sixteen St. Louis women participated in the JEWISH WOMEN’S RENAISSANCE PROJECT, an immersion experience in Israel. The program is designed to inspire women to connect with their Jewish heritage and bring that sense of connectedness home to their families and communities. The local participants are: Ella Pernik, Laurie Burstein, Susan Cohen, Miriam David, Lee Friedman, Meredith Goette, Lisa Greenspon, Marla Grossman, Lori Kabrun Berry, Debra Klevens, Julie Lander, Tegan Litt, Robin Moll, Randi Schenberg, Susan Schienberg and Georgee Waldman.

[ TALKOF THETOWNS ] by bill beggs jr.

Irvine, California. A week from Saturday, on Aug. 5, an event to raise awareness is slated at the Shaw pool, 111 S. Brentwood Blvd., at 11 a.m. Lynly hopes donors—and, perhaps, a dermatologist—will be on hand for questions. A Clayton resident herself, Lynly swims to keep in shape and is a member of the Nerinx swim team, but her athletic focus is field hockey. And, of course, she wears sunscreen. Food for thought: A novel St. Louis Public Library partnership with Operation Food Search will continue to offer free lunches to children 18 or younger through Aug. 11. Complimentary meals are provided for kids during the lunch hour, every weekday, at five SLPL branches: Carondelet, 6800 Michigan Ave. Carpenter, 3309 S. Grand Blvd. Central, 1301 Olive St. Divoll, 4234 N. Grand Blvd. Walnut Park, 5760 W.

The Some folks love to soak up the sun, program helps local kids in need go back to school in giving little thought to what damage a new pair of sneaks. This, the program’s eighth annual the rays may be causing. Hey … iteration, runs through Aug. 6. Since the mission began they wear hats and sunglasses and in 2010, more than 12,000 pairs of new sneakers and maybe slather on the ‘suntan’ lotion athletic footwear have been donated to disadvantaged with nary a care about its SPF. But is that enough? Well kids throughout the metro. The 2017 goal is to raise … no. Just ask Lynly Brennan, a Nerinx Hall junior. enough cash and secure the level of new sneaker In an effort to reduce the risk of skin cancer, she got donations adequate to place three municipal pools to provide free sunscreen as part of a trial program.

national census data. One location to which interested donors could head to for sneaks is the Adidas store at St. Louis Premium Outlets in Chesterfield Valley; Adidas is providing special discounts to shoppers purchasing for Sneakers with Soul. In addition to new sneakers, the church is accepting financial donations at manchesterumc.org/sneakers. Donations of new sneakers and/or athletic shoes can be dropped off at the church (129 Woods Mill Road) between 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays, or at any service. You can’t miss this house of worship—the steeple is visible from Manchester Road for miles in either direction. Six Flags? Waaay overrated, IMHO. There’s a place for amusements not quite so far west, where the parking is free and the lines are short. It’s air-conditioned, so no one sweats profusely during a 45-minute wait for the next ride. There’s a carousel, and all manner of food and drink … except maybe not funnel cakes. A tooting choochoo conveys patrons from one fun thing to the next. Perhaps they’d like to try their skill and luck at the ‘claw’ machine, attempting to grab a container with a chance to win $100? Maybe it’s time to really screw up some courage and bungee jump off a trampoline—or take four photos with your date in the booth nearby, get your nails done, enjoy a deep neck massage or see a movie. But then … when Chesterfield Mall closes soon, all that will disappear—plus, where will mallwalkers walk? Things have been going downhill for some time. You couldn’t buy gifts last Christmas at Dillard’s, or a prom dress there in the spring, seeing as the department store has been closed ‘temporarily’ for ages. Yet signs on the doors have teased shoppers since that water main burst in September that flooded the store. Catastrophe is none too strong a word to describe the emptying mall’s fortunes since two outlet centers

opened in the Valley in 2013. The mall has changed hands numerous times since its 1976 debut, and today’s teens don’t hang out in droves there over the summer like they used to. They’re looking down at Instagram, Snapchat or whatever—not trying to evade parents at the mall anymore! Current owner Madison Marquette Retail Services, receiver for U.S. Bank, is trying to shed the property within 90 days. What could possibly be a ‘mixed use’ alternative for a 40-year-old retail mall? We might offer up a roller-derby facility, with themed discos operating in the three former two-floor anchor spaces. You know, just for the short term. Little Feat … minus at least one standout player from the 1970s … is coming to town next month. The benefit concert, created to celebrate the life of Avery Reine Cantor, 17, a teen who died by her own hand (pictured at right with her dad), is slated for The Pageant on Saturday, Aug. 26. It will be presented at the U. City venue by A.R.C. Angels Foundation (AAF), a nonprofit established to help save lives by preventing suicide through education and awareness. Avery, who took her own life in May 2014, was

a student at Lafayette High School suffering from severe depression. Her pain may have been under the radar for friends and teachers. This was a very accomplished young woman: honors student (NHS), two-sport varsity athlete (field hockey/soccer), features editor for the school newspaper, junior class treasurer and a peer leader/mentor. In Avery’s honor, AAF presents members of Little Feat, the 1970s boogie-rock band still popular on rock radio and among aficionados of tasty slide guitar. ‘Willin,’ perhaps the band’s most famous tune, has been covered by artists ranging from Linda Ronstadt to Phish. And if you’ve never experienced The Pageant, well, you’ve been spending too much time chillaxin’ on the couch, listening through headphones. The Pageant is ranked one of the premier mid-size concert venues in the country by Pollstar, an influential U.K. trade magazine and website, so why not take this opportunity, a few weeks after the 12th annual ‘Show Me You Care About Suicide Prevention’ conference, to recognize the importance of the problem? A study conducted by the Missouri Institute of Mental Health found that suicide was the third leading cause of death for young adults ages 15 to 24 in Missouri. Plus, overall, the suicide rate in Missouri is higher than the national rate.

KHALEA EDWARDS

TEJAS SEKHAR

Kirkwood High School graduate Khalea Edwards spent her senior year educating as well as learning. She’s become an outspoken champion for social justice issues, and has received major recognition for it. Khalea traveled to New Jersey this spring to receive the Princeton Prize in Race Relations, a prestigious award given to high schoolers who lead in that area. Khalea helped reinstate—and was president of—her school’s Social Justice Club, which meets weekly to discuss current issues in race relations. She wrote about it for the student newspaper, worked as a teaching assistant in the school’s ‘Africa to America Experience’ class, and led school staff development sessions on the subject. “Khalea has become a voice for issues of injustice,” says teacher Madeline Raimondo, who nominated her for the Princeton award. “She has elevated it to the forefront at our school.” Khalea also was honored for her achievements during a KHS ceremony attended by then St. Louis Mayor Francis Slay. “I’ve always been interested in black history,” she says. “But I noticed that we would learn about the same things every year—slavery, civil rights, the same historical figures, the same lessons. When I was a sophomore, I was glad to learn the school was introducing the ‘Africa to America’ class. It helps us have new conversations with each other and learn things we didn’t know.” She plans to study at St. Louis Community College and eventually attend law school. “I want to be a teacher, attorney and activist,” she says. “All three have struck a chord with me, and I think they go together well. I want to educate people about social justice and oppression, and help them change for the better. I feel I’ve done a good job of bringing it to light at Kirkwood High, but I want to go beyond that.”

Saint Louis Priory School graduate Tejas Sekhar plans to become a doctor, and he’s already doing quite a bit to prepare for that challenging career. In April, he received a $20,000 college scholarship from the Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation, which rewards academic achievement, service and leadership. He’s one of only 150 U.S. high school students to be chosen for the honor out of 86,000 applicants. Tejas, 18, plans to take his award to Northwestern University in the fall and major in neuroscience. In the meantime, he was active with Priory’s Student Council, served as an editor of the school’s newspaper, helped resurrect its defunct Model United Nations program, and served as treasurer of the St. Louis Area Model United Nations organization. He earned ‘master’ status in the Guild of Saint Columbkille, Priory’s medieval arts group, which promotes skills such as stained glass making and calligraphy. “I also ran cross country, although tennis is my real sports passion,” he says. “During my junior year, I was ranked No. 17 in Missouri.” He was undefeated in singles at the time of this interview. “Tennis is a great way for me to stay active,” he notes. “It’s such a mental game.” Tejas plans to immerse himself in research while in college, and he’s been gearing up for it, using summer grants to perform genomics studies in a lab at Washington University. For his senior thesis project at Priory, he designed an affordable fish tank system to allow high schools to raise zebrafish used in genetic research. “Leaving Priory is bittersweet. I’ll miss my time there,” he says. “But I’m really excited for the next chapter.”

talk to... [ megan mcclure ] Athletics are a family tradition for Webster Groves graduate Megan McClure, and she plans to keep that torch lit as she transitions to college this fall. Megan, 17, made waves on both the soccer and softball fields, and accepted a soccer scholarship to Arkansas State University, where she’ll major in fine arts. A standout goalkeeper and third-base player, she racked up game-winning saves in both sports and performed at a high level in the classroom, too. She’s known for school records in areas such as batting and goalkeeping, and helped her high school and club teams to an impressive list of victories and titles,

including the Class 3 State Soccer Championship in June. When not on the athletic field, Megan immerses herself in art forms like painting, sculpture and photography. WHY ARE SPORTS IMPORTANT TO YOU?

I’ve been playing since I was 4 or 5. I really like the competitiveness of athletics. I’m 6 feet tall, so I know how to use my physicality to my advantage. I also love working as a team with the other girls, and the unpredictability of a sport like soccer. You bring your best game to the field, but you never know how it’s going to go. And when I’m playing softball, the reaction-time skills I’ve developed in soccer really

come through. I love being able to save a game—it feels great having my teammates rely on me for that.

ARE YOU CONSIDERING A CAREER IN ART?

Yes, I want to do something functional with it, like work in advertising or designing products—something that will be seen by a lot of people. I also like the hands-on, physical aspect of painting and 3-D art forms like ceramics and sculpture.

WHAT ELSE DOES YOUR FUTURE HOLD?

I can dream big and hope to go to a national team or women’s pro soccer. If not, my art is the backup plan. Either way, I think it’ll be a win-win situation for me.

f a s + chess h i n by ALEXA BEATTIE

AGNES HAMERLIK

IN THE EARLY 20TH CENTURY, chess was

a game you dressed up for. Men were suave in suits; women looked chic in the fashions of the day. But that tradition has fallen by the wayside, and the sport—considered to be one of the world’s oldest—has become a far more casual affair. However, with the help of the World Chess Hall of Fame (WCHOF) and the inaugural class of the Saint Louis Fashion Incubator (SLFI), that is about to change. During the past year, six SLFI designers have paired with chess grandmasters to come up with the world’s first chess uniform. Steeping themselves in the game and its history (in one case, even learning how to play), each designer produced two chess-inspired outfits—one practical, the other a whimsical, out-of-the-box piece meant more to showcase the designer’s talents than for the rigors of hours studying a chessboard. The contest is called Pinned! A Designer Chess Challenge, and one winner will receive a $10,000 cash scholarship. “I’ve always been so interested in how designers have used chess in their work and in their shows,” says Susan Sherman, board chair of Saint Louis Fashion Fund (SLFF), the nonprofit that supports the Incubator. “And the interconnection of chess and fashion is not new to this city.” Sherman refers to the Chess Hall of Fame’s 2013 exhibit, ‘A Queen Within,’ which was inspired in part by the queen chess piece. Shannon Bailey, WCHOF’s chief curator, agrees that St. Louis is uniquely positioned to celebrate the intersection of these two worlds, considering the parallels between the Fashion Fund and the Hall of Fame. “Both nonprofits are doing very interesting things and attracting global attention,” she says. “We are thrilled to help the Saint Louis Fashion Fund rebuild what was once a booming industry in our city.”

But what, exactly, are the specs for a chess uniform? What might be considered ‘fitting attire’ for a sport played sitting down, in silence and with minimal movement? “When you are sitting for three or four hours, comfort is an issue,” Sherman says. “And because chess players often perspire due to the game’s intensity, breathable fabric is important, too.” One designer—St. Louis’ own Emily Brady Koplar of the Wai Ming line—has incorporated padded sleeves into her design, a practical nod to forearms perched on tables. Bailey says it’s high time chess had its own uniform, and speaks emphatically to the game’s classification as a ‘sport,’ noting that top-level players often report feeling physically exhausted after a tournament. And when Bobby Fischer was preparing for the 1972 World Chess Championship, she says he employed a physical trainer. “With this competition, we’re hoping to break down the chess stereotype,” Bailey says. “We want to show its chic, hip side.” Doing her part to bring haute elegance to the Pinned! challenge is handbag designer Allison Mitchell. Mitchell partnered with Grandmaster Fabiano Caruana and—inspired by a tortoiseshell chess set—created a bag from a red snapping turtle shell. “It’s a ‘hero piece’ ... not really sellable. But it has a raw, sauvage aesthetic and a lot of style,” Mitchell says. The winning design will be revealed Aug. 1 at Windows on Washington, adjacent to the new Saint Louis Fashion Incubator in St. Louis’ historic Garment District. A Pinned! exhibition opens at the Chess Hall of Fame Oct. 5 and will consist of six unique ‘boutiques’ branded for each designer participating in the challenge. Each boutique will contain the drawings, sketches and chess designs, as well as some of the designers’ original pieces from their lines, open for public viewing.

[ASSET$& ANSWERS Q “ “

[ SNAPPED! ]

by alexa beattie

IS IT EVER ADVISABLE TO ARRANGE ESTATE PLANNING SO THAT MORE OF THE FUNDS GO TO THE NEEDIEST CHILDREN IN THE FAMILY?

Absolutely. There are a number of reasons why a parent may choose to leave assets unequally to their children, but let’s use a common example to demonstrate why ‘fair isn’t always equal.’ Take the typical middle-class family. Probably the largest asset they will bestow on their children is college tuition. In this example, there are two children with a wide gap between their ages. The parents have paid the tuition for child No. 1, who has recently graduated college. But child No. 2 has not yet started college when both parents die unexpectedly. In this event, splitting the inheritance 50/50 would not be equitable at all. To mitigate this risk, we suggest that these parents consider leaving their assets to their children in what is called a sprinkling trust. This holds assets in a single pool to be used based on the individual needs of each child. Funds are distributed at the discretion of the trust’s trustee until the youngest child reaches an age predetermined by the parents— typically around age 25. In this case, a sprinkling trust would make funds available for both children’s health, education, maintenance and support until the youngest child reached the predetermined age. At that point, any remaining inheritance would be divided equally. Ultimately, both children would be treated fairly, based on the individual needs of each child.

Yes, there are reasons to favor a needy child. Maybe they have an illness or a disability. Maybe some of your children are financially better off than others. Ask yourself, “Does this accomplish what I want to do with my estate, and is this the best choice for my family?” Whether this meets your goals depends on why you want to leave more to one child than another. Do you want to make sure your disabled daughter can meet her costly special needs after you are gone? Do you want to make sure that your son with cancer has the funds to take that trip of a lifetime? Do you want your child in the small apartment to finally be able to afford a house like his siblings? Whether this is the best choice for your family is about family harmony. If you leave more to one child, even with good reason, does that hurt your relationship with your other children? Do you get the cold shoulder from your children during your lifetime? Do they take out their anger with you on their sibling after you’re gone? Is there a court battle? Your estate plan is confidential, but if you want to treat your children differently, it may be a good idea to let everyone know that early in the process. That leaves more time to discuss why you are making this decision and to set expectations well in advance. This leads to more family harmony in the end.

Before I discovered the Overheard L.A. Instagram account, I thought I was the only one trying not to burst out laughing when overhearing conversations like, “When the nurse injects the Botox, I need her to avoid my third eye area.” An account dedicated to posting the absurd conversations that you’ll hear only in L.A., Overheard L.A. is as hilarious as it is outrageous. You don’t have to live in the city to get the jokes and shows; even L.A. can make fun of itself once in a while.

by julia m. johnson THE TERM ‘MIDWIFE’ MAY CALL TO MIND IMAGES OF LABOR AND CHILDBIRTH during a bygone

era, but choosing the care of a modern-day midwife is actually a very progressive idea, health care professionals say. In St. Louis, SLUCare Physician Group offers a team of midwives highly trained to help expectant mothers have healthy and safe births in a technologically advanced hospital setting, says SLUCare midwife Maureen Foster, CNM, MSN. Foster works with fellow certified nurse midwives Rebekah Hassler and Carolyn Mank, and all three are based at SSM Health St. Mary’s Hospital. Hassler, hired in 2013, was the first member of the midwife team; Foster came on board the following year, and they hired Mank in 2015. Each brings special expertise to patient care, including lactation consulting and natural childbirth techniques. The program isn’t about delivering babies at home, Foster notes. Moms have hospital births as usual, but the midwives are their main coaches during the process. If there is a problem during labor or delivery, an obstetrician is brought in. “We do a lot more than deliver babies,” Foster says of her partnership with Hassler and Mank. “We counsel women on things like family planning, prenatal care and breastfeeding, and we do well-woman checkups. They get all the care they’d receive in a regular clinic, but they also get extra education.” Foster says the team offers ‘pregnancy centering,’ a group program that brings together several moms-to-be each month for prenatal care, counseling and peer support. “We know that being well informed lowers stress levels,” she says. “When mothers have been through our program, they recognize earlier on if there’s a problem, so we can address it in time.” Foster cites the case of a patient who came in because she hadn’t been noticing as much fetal movement as she should. It turned out that she needed to deliver right away, or the baby might have died. “The mother knew she needed to feel 10 movements in a two-hour period, but she was only feeling six,” Foster explains. “That’s a great example of knowledge saving a baby’s life.” The midwife team generally handles low-risk pregnancies; moms with high-risk factors like age and health conditions are referred to obstetricians. Foster notes that most of the team’s patients choose the midwife program because they prefer more natural, ‘low-intervention’ births without some traditional procedures like episiotomies. “We don’t do surgery, so we can spend that time with our patients,” she says. The midwives enjoy collaborative relationships with SLUCare obstetricians, who are available to consult and provide help at any stage of the process. “Mothers often tell us this is the best childbirth experience they could have imagined,” Foster says. “They say, ‘I wasn’t afraid, because I knew everything that would happen.’”

THIS PLACE IS A COLLABORATION BETWEEN THE HAMILTON GROUP (of Eleven Eleven

Mississippi and Vin de Set) and boutique brewery Charleville near Ste. Genevieve, Missouri. It’s an inviting space near Vin de Set, in a cavernous old building with exposed brick, a large outdoor patio of picnic tables and storefront windows facing Chouteau. The food is heavy and hearty, with an emphasis on fresh and local—many of the greens come from Hamilton Farms, the amazing tower garden next door. For starters, don’t pass up the Spent Grain Soft Pretzel ($5.99). It’s nothing like the typical brown, braided pretzel. ‘Spent grain’ is what’s left after the brewing process, and it has a pleasant hoppy flavor. These pretzels are made with coiled dough stuffed into a round baking pan, basted with butter and salt (and caraway seeds), and baked to a nice, crisp crustiness. They come with a grainy rosemary mustard, but I preferred the beer cheese sauce available for an extra 99 cents. With the much-heralded Hamilton Farms microgreens growing nearby, I had to try the salad ($4.99), which lived up to the hype. Delicate mixed greens, each leaf variety with its own subtle flavor, came dotted with cubed tomato and cucumber in a sweet Italian vinaigrette. Light shreds of white cheddar sat on top, the entire plateful a treat of uber-fresh artisan greens. The Lobster Corn Dog ($11.99) is an inventive dish of ground lobster and shrimp compressed into an elongated form and stuffed into a yummy cornmeal coating. These come on sticks, just like corndogs, and are very good. They have an Asian flavor, especially after you dip them into the hot and sweet sauce served alongside. If there is a house specialty, it’s Smoked Fried 1/2 Chicken ($13.99), a delicious half bird that’s smoked for 16 hours over cherry wood, then hand-battered in buttermilk and fried. It combines the best of flavors, with a deep smokiness and charred black skin underneath a crispy brown crust. Not a hint of greasiness was present, and it was amazingly moist for going through two cooking processes. It’s served with your choice of side, and nothing goes with fried chicken better than mashed potatoes! In this case, Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes (actually ‘smashed,’ $4.99). They were flavorful, but a little gummy in texture. The Cauliflower Latkes ($13.99) here prove that meat lovers should never underestimate a vegetarian menu item. These fried cauliflower-onion-egg pancakes were outstanding, served with a light drizzle of house-made green goddess sauce. My only complaint? It wasn’t enough food, especially for $14. A plate of Cornmeal Crusted Catfish with sriracha aioli ($14.99) was quite satisfying. The fillets were liberally coated with cornmeal and came out hot and crisped. There was a little spice in there, and a lot more of it in the aioli. The chosen side in this case was Fennel & Cabbage Slaw, a tasty and different take on shredded cabbage, with spicy vinegar flavors and mouth-puckering tang. Desserts, all rich and wonderful-sounding, are homemade. Our Grilled Sticky Buns ($6.99) were actually one large, iced, cinnamon bun sliced horizontally and grilled in butter to create a crust on the sliced surface. The icing became gooey and runny, and candied pecans were scattered about. Great flavor and texture. Same for the individual apple pie ($6.99), with its hard, crusty shell filled with still-crisp green apple chunks, skin-on. F6 |

Using charcoal and wood chips to slow-cook chicken over an open flame imparts a distinct smoky flavor and, if done correctly, retains moisture.

This distinctly flavored bulb is in the carrot family and widely used in Italian cuisine. It has a peppery, licorice-like flavor.

This is the leftover malt after the beer brewing process has extracted most of the sugars and nutrients. It can be used in bread for a pleasing, almost sourdough, quality.

[ fall foodie fest ] St. Louis has been chosen as the site for FLAVORED NATION, a national food happening slated for Oct. 27 through 29 at the Dome downtown. Organizers will curate iconic dishes from each state to be showcased at the event. Planners include former Food Network president Richard Gore, food writer David Rosengarten and celebrity chef Bobby Parish. St. Louis was chosen, in part, thanks to its illustrious World’s Fair food ‘firsts’ (hot dogs, cotton candy, club sandwiches, ice cream cones and more!). Tickets, available at flavorednation.com, start at $45.

[ we’re number 14 ... ]

The 14th TIN ROOF restaurant, that is. The Southern food spot has taken over the former Joe Buck’s downtown at 1000 Clark St. A small chain started in Nashville, its mission is to provide a fun venue for emerging musicians; in fact, its tagline is: A Live Music Joint. It opened last month and offers a full menu of sandwiches, pub grub, street tacos and salads, most with a Southern bent—Dixie Biscuits (with bacon, brisket and peach jam), anyone?

[ sticky business ] DAVID DRESNER is opening a restaurant (and retail operation), CRISPY EDGE, that focuses on pot stickers. The soon-to-open spot is at 4168 Juniata St. in the Tower Grove South neighborhood, where Dresner will serve up a range of the tasty dough pockets with all kinds of fillings. The small cafe also will include bar offerings.

THE CAST OF ALBERT HERRING

FRONT&CENTER] by alexa beattie

BENJAMIN BRITTEN’S COMEDY OPERA ALBERT HERRING is the first production in Union

Avenue Opera’s 2017 Festival Season. Written in 1947 and directed here by Tim Ocel, it’s the story of a grocer’s son chosen as the town’s May King when all the candidates for queen are deemed unfit. Scott Schoonover conducts, and St. Louis’ very own soprano, Christine Brewer, takes center stage as Lady Billows. Brewer, whose lungs could blow out the windows of the Sydney Opera House, let alone the delicate rose windows of the Union Avenue Christian Church, is a presence here. Funny, haughty and larger than life, she was a joy to watch even though I longed for more traditional tonal harmony in the score. In the title role, David Walton makes a strong UAO stage debut, as does Janara Kellerman, who gives a powerful performance as Herring’s mother. Other members of the impressive cast include mezzo-soprano Debra Hillabrand as Florence Pike, David Dillard, Anthony Heinemann and Mark Freiman. Kyra Bishop designed the set, which is a feast for the eyes, alternating between a floral living room, a vividly stocked grocery store and the site of the Loxford May Day celebration. The perfectly British lunch table groans beneath the weight of cakes, biscuits and even a pink blancmange. Union Avenue’s 2017 season—its 23rd—continues with Rogers & Hammerstein’s Carousel (July 28 and 29, Aug. 4 and 5) and Engelbert Humperdinck’s Hänsel und Gretel (Aug. 18, 19, 25 and 26).

COVER STORY

MOBILE FIX] GET GORGEOUS by julia m. johnson

younger-looking skin? Anyone, if they book a ‘house call’ with dermatologist Dr. Mary Noël George. She recently launched Get Gorgeous, a luxurious van that takes cosmetic skin care advice directly to patients’ homes and workplaces. Both appointments and walk-ups are accepted at Get Gorgeous, and George does Botox injections for skin lines and wrinkles through the mobile service. “The injections take about two minutes, and the total time from check-in to check-out can be as little as 20 minutes,” she says. “You can go right back to your day, and no one will know you’ve had a procedure. There’s almost no risk of bruising or other side effects.” Because the popular injectable doesn’t take long and requires no recovery time, it lends itself to an on-the-go setting, George says. Patients needing other skin procedures and advice can visit her Dermatology STL office, where she practices with Dr. Lisa Ring. Most mobile Botox clients are women, but George says an increasing number of men have embraced the treatment’s benefits. It works well on frown lines, forehead wrinkles, crow’s feet, smoker’s lines, and other areas of the face and neck. Botox relaxes the skin’s surface by keeping the muscles beneath it from contracting to form lines and wrinkles. While they’re ‘on board,’ Get Gorgeous patients also can consult with the doctor about skin care products to combat aging. She offers lines such as EltaMD, Revision Skincare, Obagi, SkinMedica and Epionce. “People often come to me with hundreds

of dollars’ worth of skin products they bought over the counter or at parties, but most of them are ineffective because they lack rigorous testing and research,” George says. “Patients want professional, proven products from a doctor who is a skin care expert.” Clients enjoy booking the comfortably appointed Mercedes van for private parties and special events, too. “We’ve had a lot of requests for that. We bring the van to groups at corporate offices, real estate firms and more,” George says. The service also works well for stay-at-home moms, luxury condominium residents and patients who would rather not sit in a waiting room. Get Gorgeous is an effort to bring services to people, George says, calling it a current trend. She plans to add doctors and expand to serve more mobile clients, including those on the Illinois side of the river. “We’re in a new age of convenience for the patient,” she says.

DR. MARY NOËL GEORGE IS BOARD CERTIFIED IN DERMATOLOGY AND HAS BEEN IN PRACTICE FOR MORE THAN A DECADE. SHE RECEIVED HER MEDICAL DEGREE FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA, AND COMPLETED A DERMATOLOGY RESIDENCY AT SAINT LOUIS UNIVERSITY.

ROOM

FOR

IMPROVEMENT BY RICK STOFF

NO MATTER WHAT THE SPECIFICS ARE REGARDING ANY PARTICULAR COSMETIC PROCEDURE, the goal is the same: enhanced appearance. There are so many options out there because one patient’s problem areas aren’t the same as another’s. For some, it may be those pesky frown lines; for others, it’s the turkey neck that suddenly appeared at age 50. Leg veins, brown spots, uneven skin texture ... the list is expansive. Fortunately, so is the practitioner’s toolbox.

The Neck For species other than the clunky bird it’s named after, the turkey neck is not a desirable trait. Loose, flabby neck skin can make us less satisfied with our appearance, but there are solutions. Promise. THE TELLTALE SIGNS Saggy, wrinkly necks are a major aspect of cosmetic surgery and dermatology, says Dr. Richard W. Maack, an otolaryngological and facial plastic surgeon at Synergi Facial Surgery in Chesterfield. “People come in all day and say, ‘I can’t stand my neck! All this skin is hanging down!’ The surgical face-lift is the gold standard, but a lot of people may not need that yet or do not want to have surgery. We can do some neat stuff for them that is not as good as surgery, but the results are just short of it.” “We know a neck that looks old versus a neck that looks young,” says Dr. Joseph A. Muccini, a surgical dermatologist at MidAmerica Skin Health & Vitality Center in Chesterfield. “There are a couple of things that contribute to what people don’t like about their necks,” he says. “A lot of it is genetic. In some younger patients,

we see a bit of bulkiness. Some people will have a double chin, and some lack profile definition. A person can be thin and still have bagginess in the neck due to the collection of fat. The other component is loose skin.”

GRAVITY IS NOT OUR FRIEND—AGAIN The hanging skin results from years of tissue aging and gravity, Maack explains. “The collagen loosens; it is like an elastic band that stretches. It loosens outside of the muscle, so even if you say you are going to tighten your neck with exercise, it doesn’t do anything.” Injectable deoxycholic acid, under the brand name Kybella, has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to reduce fat under the chin. “It disrupts the fat cells and causes them to die,” Muccini says, usually after several treatments. Tissue freezing and liposuction also reduce fat tissue in the neck, he says, but his favorite tool is the PrecisionTx laser. “It is minimally invasive with three tiny holes. You insert a laser that will literally melt fat by passing the fiber optic wand under the skin.” The heat produced under the skin also tightens skin, he notes. “The PrecisionTx can tighten the skin, reduce fat volume, or do both. People will continue to tighten for six months after the treatment. It is not intended to require more than one treatment.”

MICRONEEDLING “One of the neatest things out there is a combo procedure called microneedling with radiofrequency,” Maack says. “A little pad has 40 needles that go very quickly in and out of the skin. Radiofrequency comes out of the needles while they are under the skin. The heat from the radiofrequency waves is directed where the fibrous collagen tissue is. The collagen is irritated and tightens as it heals. We usually do an area three times; a deep pass gives deep tightening and a superficial pass gets the fine lines. It is typical to do up to three treatments about a month apart.” Each microneedling/radiofrequency procedure costs about $900, he says. “There is a definite, visible improvement. The effects are not as long lasting as with a face-lift, but it is a longer-term treatment,” Maack explains. “People might want to come back in a year or two to do it again.” An ultrasound procedure, Ultherapy, “is very popular and works well for neck tightening,” he adds. “The device delivers two ultrasound waves that come together under the skin. There is a deep thermal response where they meet that heats the tissue. As the body heals, that tissue tightens.” While the physicians are excited about these nonsurgical options, they repeat that nothing matches the results of an actual face-lift. “We don’t want to mislead people,” Maack says. “People who have hanging skin are going to see much better improvement with a face/neck lift.” JULY 26, 2017

Combination Procedures Many medical issues are the result of more than one cause, hence they are labeled ‘multifactorial.’ Their treatments, too, require more than one approach to get optimal results. And like a combo meal at the drive-thru window, combination treatments can cost you less for a better outcome! NEW FILLER PAIRS WELL Carol Anderson, a certified aesthetic nurse specialist and owner of Nouveau MedSpa in Kirkwood, says, “There may be a variety of ways that you arrived at the problems you have and a variety of ways we can address them.” Science has circled back to autologous adipose tissue (the patient’s own fat cells) for more satisfactory and lingering effects. This modality is autologous lipocyte micronized injection, or ALMI. ALMI can be combined with light or laser skin surface treatments for added improvement to skin texture and tone, says Dr. Richard Moore, cosmetic surgeon and medical director of The Lifestyle Center in Ladue. “ALMI is a natural substance obtained from the patient’s own body,” he explains. “It is combined with a little bit of platelet-rich plasma from the patient’s blood and injected in a similar way as a dermal filler. One benefit is the longevity of the treatment. And we have unlimited volume and improvement in the texture and tone of the skin.”

AN OBVIOUS IMPROVEMENT Older fat cell transfers, developed decades ago, were a great idea since they used the patient’s own living tissues as a dermal filler. However, Moore says, “The biggest issue with fat transfers to the face historically has been that they were very unpredictable,” he says. But ALMI utilizes just the cells that create new fat cells. “We harvest a small syringe of fat and process it to remove the mature fat cells. That leaves behind the regenerative cells—things like stem cells,” Moore notes.

We like to look at your face and design a personal treatment plan, combining several modalities that help you reach your goal. For a typical procedure, Moore removes about 20cc of fat, usually from the patient’s lower abdomen. After processing, the remaining cells total about the same amount as 15 syringes of dermal filler.

COST-BENEFIT ANALYSIS “After it is injected, it re-establishes the collagen and supportive matrix of the skin,” Moore says. “There is a smoothing of the skin, a decrease in wrinkles, and volumizing—all at the same time. It can be put in places that are difficult to use fillers, like under the eyes in the hollow tear troughs and underneath the eyebrows.” The treatment takes about an hour. “We expect a much longer-lasting result than we would get with a dermal filler, something along the lines of two to five years. It’s also less expensive,” Moore says. “For a full face, the cost (of ALMI) would be around $3,500, almost half of what one year of filler treatment would be.”

ANOTHER EFFECTIVE COMBO A popular combination at Nouveau MedSpa removes brown spots, stimulates collagen growth under the skin and rehydrates the face, Anderson says. “This is a popular combo because it makes a dramatic change in a short period of time. We do a light Forever Young BBL (broadband light) treatment and, the same day, a light microneedling with PRP (platelet-rich plasma). The PRP helps with healing and filling the tiny, fine lines in the skin,” she says. “We follow that five days later with a hydrating facial. In one week, you eliminate some brown spots and sun damage, start new cell turnover and rehydrate everything. You have a clearer, more even-toned and smoother complexion.” Scheduling the treatments as a package saves time and money, she notes. “If you did all those things separately, it would be about $1,000, but as a combo, the price is about $850. We like to look at your face and design a personal treatment plan, combining several modalities that help you reach your goal.”

Veins If your doctor says you have remarkable telangiectasias, he isn’t complimenting your flower garden. He’s telling you the spider veins on your legs are showing. Those may be only cosmetic, but for some people, the little blue wisps progress to unsightly varicose veins. And those may warrant a medical examination to rule out deeper, troublesome venous problems. COMMON CULPRITS The great saphenous vein is the longest vein in the body, extending from the top of the foot to the upper thigh and groin. Closer to the surface of the leg is the small saphenous vein. “The legs are supposed to be a low-pressure system when the valves are working in sequence up and down the legs, but when the valves are broken, there is very high pressure,” explains Dr. Norman N. Bein of Vein Specialties. “Blood from the legs returns to the heart through the saphenous veins,” adds Dr. Robert Fischer, a radiologist at SSM Health DePaul and St. Clare hospitals. “Over time, in some patients, the valves in the small saphenous veins become leaky. Blood that is supposed to travel in one direction, to the heart, refluxes back into the legs. That can lead to the problems we see with varicose veins and spider veins.” The problems are not merely cosmetic and can lead to swelling, skin color changes and eczema, Fisher says. “The end stage of the disease is an ulcer, and those are very difficult to treat.”

TEENSIE, WEENSIE SPIDERS Spider veins may occur in 80 percent of men and 85 percent of women as they age, according to medical journals. Many fewer, about 23 percent of U.S. adults, are afflicted with varicose veins, those dark purple or blue streaks visible and sometimes bulging through the skin. Heredity is the key root of these venous issues, Bein explains. “They are seen more in women because their veins dilate during pregnancy due to the increased blood volume for the baby.” Spider veins are treated as a cosmetic issue. “Sclerotherapy is internationally the gold standard,” says Maria Bein, R.N. and clinical director of Vein Specialties. The small veins can be treated in two to five treatments, she adds. The treatment consists of injecting a chemical solution that causes the veins to collapse and eventually disappear. Nearby veins supply the blood flow to adjacent tissues.

independent [ a completely st. louis publication

A PROGRESSIVE PROBLEM “Many people come in for sclerotherapy, but I perform an ultrasound to make sure there is nothing going on under the surface,” Bein says. Fischer adds, “The classification is a step-wise process. The first step would be reflux without anything visible. Then we see the small spider veins, and from there, varicose veins and swelling.” Most patients want to take care of the unsightly issue for cosmetic reasons. “But if we don’t treat underlying problems, those can progress to swelling, skin changes and ulcers. Everyone who has varicose veins should seek medical attention and at least get an ultrasound to check the severity of reflux.” Conservative measures for varicose veins may be prescribed first, often because insurance companies require it, Fischer continues. “Compression stockings are something we recommend,” she says. “I typically suggest patients try to exercise daily (although there is no evidence to support the idea that exercise changes anything).” Years ago bulging veins were commonly treated with vein stripping, Fischer notes, but his practice likes a minimally invasive treatment called endovenous laser therapy. “We insert a small laser in the vein and as we withdraw it, we apply heat to close the vein,” he describes. Bein notes that deeper issues with varicose veins are almost always considered a medical issue and are covered by insurance. Endovenous laser therapy costs may range from several hundred to a few thousand dollars, depending on the amount of veins requiring treatment.

IT'S NOT EVERY DAY THAT PEOPLE LOOK BACK on the home-building experience with fond memories and no regrets. But for Jim and Elizabeth Mauze, who built a Clayton home with Michael Lauren Development in 2015, the entire process couldn't have gone smoother, they say. Friends were involved with every step of the process, from building to decorating, which made everything a little more fun and the end result extra special.

T&S | WHAT MADE YOU DECIDE TO BUILD? ELIZABETH MAUZE | We're friends with Michael Rechan (founder of Michael Lauren Development), and I've always loved his houses. For years, I begged him to build us one, and we finally talked him into it! We were right on the Clayton border in Ladue before, and we love the Clayton area. We always walk to restaurants, and my husband bought bikes this year, so now we ride everywhere.

T&S | IT WAS A SMOOTH PROCESS? EM | It was just the best process ever! It's not uncommon to worry when working with friends, but Mike was wonderfulâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and he's like that with all his clients. He's very organized, and we met with him and the architect every week. There was nothing I didn't enjoy about it. I found a house plan online that I loved, and the architect really worked with it and made the layout very similar to what I found.

T&S | WHAT DID YOU ENVISION FOR THE HOME? EM | In our previous house, the kitchen and living room were open to each other, and I didn't want that. I know most people do, but I like the kitchen as a separate room. We didn't want a formal living roomâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; my husband didn't even want a formal dining room, but I knew we would use it. I wanted our bedroom on the first floor because the upstairs is the kids' space. We have three daughters and will be emptynesters next year, so it's nice to have everything Jim and I need on one level. The rooms are not huge, but everything is open and spacious.

T&S | THE HOUSE IS NEUTRAL EXCEPT FOR SOME POPS OF GREEN AND BLUE. IS THIS YOUR USUAL DESIGN AESTHETIC? EM | It's very different than what we came from, but I prefer this look. It's clean and fresh, and there aren't a lot of little things sitting around. Our other house was very traditional with a lot of greens and reds. I knew I wanted to do blue this round, and I enlisted my friend, designer Margie Tomaso, to handle most of the decorating. I let her pick everything out for the most part, and she would present options to me on various things. Like the room with the green chairs; she gave me the option of orange or green. I would never have done that on my own. The green scared me, but I trusted her and I love it!

T&S | DO YOU HAVE AREAS WHERE YOU CONGREGATE THE MOST? EM | The kitchen for sure, and the outdoor patio. We'll sit out there in the mornings, or in the fall we'll start a fire and watch football. We really use every room in the entire house, even the basement since my husband's office is down there.

T&S | DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE ROOM? EM | I love the dining room. And the foyer is nice because it stretches the entire length of the house. We hosted Christmas our first year in the home and were able to run tables all the way down the foyer for dinner. We dressed them with white tablecloths and flowers, and it looked so elegant. The house is easy to entertain in, and we hope to do it more!

for the love of eggs

see EXCLUSIVE photos

I love eggs any way I can get them, and the fresher, the better. It’s one of the great benefits of raising chickens at the farm. My fascination with chickens began as a kid. My grandparents on both sides of the family always had them, and I thought they were so cool. So I started raising some of my own. At night, I would go outside and, with the help of my brother, build cages for them. When it was time for a poultry show, my mom would load the station wagon with my birds, and off we’d go! Today at the farm, Poultryville houses more than 60 breeds of heritage poultry. Even if you live in a neighborhood with a modest backyard, having a small flock is a worthwhile investment. Before you start, make sure to check municipal codes for rules on having chickens in your neighborhood. By raising chickens, you’ll not only have a constant supply of eggs and meat, should you choose, but you’ll also be supporting the genetic diversity of these animals. This is critical to food security, since heritage breeds are being replaced by modern varieties for the industrial agricultural system. A great way to get to know different breeds is to visit a poultry show or contact someone from your area in the American Poultry Association (amerpoultryassn.com).

find out the happenings around town—and tell us what you are up to!

And keep an eye out for T&S contests and giveaways

Some of my favorite heritage breeds for beginners are: Buff Orpingtons: A beautiful, golden colored chicken, they have an easygoing disposition and are good producers of medium to large brown eggs; they are adaptable to free range and do well with confinement.

Plymouth Rocks: Good producers of large brown eggs, they adapt well to confinement or free range; they are docile, friendly and easy to handle.

Brown Leghorns: Heat tolerant, they enjoy free range but will adapt to confinement; they are heavy producers of medium to large white eggs.

Free-range hens tend to lay eggs that have a richer flavor and more nutrients than most storebought eggs, with twice the omega-3s and vitamin E, and four to six times as much vitamin D. With all your fresh eggs, give this egg salad recipe a try. Serve on toast points, bread for sandwiches or a bed of fresh greens.

HOMEWORK]

DEAR HOMEWORK,

Our daughter and son-in-law just bought this house in Olivette. The inside is perfect for them, however our daughter is concerned about the steepness of the drive. Getting from the garage down to the street with a toddler, plus a tricycle or stroller, feels a bit slippery and dangerous. Ice or rain would make it really scary! I think the house might be more inviting with shallow, wide steps to take people from the street up to the front porch, and these also would distract from the front-entry garage. They also could use a ‘landing’ at street level, and they need to put a mailbox somewhere. The house has a narrow front porch/breezeway, and a concrete path that curves from the front door to the drive, both of which could use some additional charm. They have a 2-year-old and a baby on the way, so we’re anxious to get started on a plan! Sincerely, —NERVOUS MOM

DEAR NERVOUS MOM,

If we design your desired walkway in a modern and architectural way, we can give a new presence to the overall appearance of the property. You will note that there are three flights of steps, set off by brick retaining walls. Additional brick walls topped with simple light fixtures give further dimension to the scheme and also provide a perfect location for a new mailbox. A new garage door and a long, custom flower box continue the architectural refinements. Painting the downspouts to match the brick is the final change. The revised landscaping shows a bold, simple approach. Japanese maple trees are moved to the edges of the house, and all the plantings are kept very horizontal. Liriope grass borders the new exposed aggregate concrete walkway and driveway border. The property now presents a much more confident midcentury scheme, and it should be safer as well. —HOMEWORK
