Mrs. Stone of Coon Path in Lambertville, NJ
Spicebush (Lindera benzoin) A deciduous shrub in the Laurel Family (Lauraceae) Mrs. Stone lived on a hillside south of Lambertville, NewJersey, on a one lane road called Coon Path. It was whileworking for her as a teenager that I first found a Spicebushalso known as Lindera Benzoin. Usually found as an understorymulti-stemmed shrub, it had found its home on her property in acommon location for this native plant, as an under story shrubto a wet woodlands site, and right on top of her drip springthat fed into a cistern that supplied her house with water. Oneof my regular tasks for her was to cut it back and keep theintake lines to the cistern open. Being a vigorous grower inthese conditions, I got to see this plant at all times of theyear as I maintained this cistern. In the spring it was early tobloom sometimes beginning in January. One year there …

How to Buy Infants’ Best Educational Toys?
Buying educational toys for infants can be difficult, because infants seem to do so little that educating them right after birth might strike you as a bit rushed. However, the fact is that your baby is learning at a great speed, taking in everything that is around, and picking up habits, information and words.
Research shows that many disabilities and learning disorders in young children can be avoided by providing them with appropriate cognitive stimulation as early as possible. By giving your infant the right stimulation, you can ward off such problems and groom your baby for pre-school and the challenges that follow.

Let Romance Motivate Us
What motivates a tiger to run after his prey? The desire to get his meal. What motivates the prey to run away from tiger? The desire to save his life. That is why, many times, the prey outruns the tiger. The desire to save life gives motivation much beyond the desire to get a meal. To work towards a goal, all of us need motivation.

Wallpaper Border Tips
A wall-covering integrated with the correct Wallpaper Border can greatly enhanced the entire room decoration – with a little a touch of professionalism, creativity and a few basic skills thrown in. Some of these tips may be helpful while hanging Borders for your wall.
First of all, decide which corner of the wall you want to start installing the Wallpaper Border. As for the height, a chair rail height is commonly used but need not be compulsory. Go for a design, which will best complement the overall décor of the room.

Do You Know What You Are Eating?
With all the news about Splenda of late and the FTC, I had a client ask me the other day, “so what’s the deal with Splenda, it’s just sugar that has been processed!”. I asked him if he knew what Splenda was and he said no.

“1,6-dichloro-1,6-dideoxy-beta-D-fructofuranosyl-4-chloro-4-deoxy-alpha-D-glactopyranoside” or:
“chlorosucrose”
In other words, this is not just sugar, it’s chlorine, you are eating chlorine! Lots of it too, not just the trace amounts that are found in some foods…
Wow, that sounds like pretty natural sugar to me!
You know, Antifreeze is pretty sweet too, and we all know that does when you eat it.
