Springtime Celebrations
1 pound fresh Alaskan halibut
Slice the halibut into small bite size slices. Whisk together all the rest of the ingredients and marinate for at least 4 hours in a non-reactive bowl in the refrigerator. Serve with plantain chips or tortilla chips.Courtesy of Amy Sherman's blog at Glam.com (see links for details)
Now for the perfect gift...something special to give that will be remembered. Decide on your budget and look for something that fits the occasion. For example gift certificates to ticket outlets make fabulous graduation, birthday, engagement and Mothers/Fathers day gifts. If you know that special someone's taste in music or favorite sport's team, you can take it one step further and buy the actual tickets. Online ticketbrokers offer great selections, often allowing you to purchase premium seats, even front row, in many cases. StubHub is a good source for this (see our links for details). If you are looking for that special something to bring as a gift for the host, check out the Putumayo Presents CD's. Not only will you give a a gift they will never forget but they can get the party started with their new tunes! Caution: Once you get started on this world music, you may never stop... Happy spring parties!

Better Late than Never
A little lady with a BIG voice, and can this artist sing the blues. Each cut on this album is rockin! Her range from pop to gospel will entertain over and over. My favorite was her version of Stormy Monday (live at Copia).
The original song "Call It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just As Bad)", also known as "Call It Stormy Monday", or just "Stormy Monday", is a
blues song written by T-Bone Walker and first recorded in 1947. Confusingly, it is also sometimes referred to as "Stormy Monday Blues", although that is actually the title of a different song, a #1 R&B hit recorded in 1942 by Earl Hines and Billy Eckstine; Walker titled his song as he did to avoid the name collision.Wednesday, April 23, 2008

Who started Earth Day?
Soon after the celebration of the first Earth Day, the following actions were taken by the U.S. government: the establishment of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); the creation of the President's Council on Environmental Quality; and the passage of the Clean Air Act, which established national air quality standards.
Here at http://www.less4luxury.com/ we are doing our best to keeping it "GREEN". At the end of our work day, we make sure that we turn off our computers. I recently came across an informative blog. 21 Practical Ways to Help the Environment. Please check it out for more tips. www.practicalenvironmentalist.com/21-practical-ways-to-help-the-environment

A New Way To See Yourself
In my spare time away from our store http://www.less4luxury.com/ , I like to read. My last book was by Taylor Hartman, "The Color Code: A NEW WAY TO SEE YOURSELF, YOUR RELATIONSHIPS, AND LIFE". While there are hundreds if not thousands of self help books out there. I could not put this book down. This was truly life changing for me. Go ahead, take the test, and find out what makes you (and others) tick. By answering the 45-question personality profile, you will no doubt gain insight and illumination that will start you out on a thrilling journey of self-discovery. Chick here. http://www.thecolorcode.com/
The Color Code: A NEW WAY TO SEE YOURSELF, YOUR RELATIONSHIPS, AND LIFE ….by Taylor Hartman
Taylor Hartman's The Color Code: A New Way to See Yourself, Your Relationships, and Life introduces a fresh method for analyzing your own personality and behavior--as well as those of people around you--and then utilizing that knowledge to improve workplace and personal relationships. The author, a psychologist and leadership coach, offers a remarkably astute system for grouping everyone into categories denoted by a color: red (power wielders), blue (do-gooders), white (peace keepers), and yellow (fun lovers). He then explains how to ensure that all possible alliances between them function at optimum effectiveness.
You can find this book at Amazon.com. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/0684848228/ref=dp_olp_1
