Edward Hopper's fedora art Edward Hopper, my favorite artist, did a lot of paintings of "classic style" and people in fedora's, most notably his self portrait. I'm not good at inserting pictures, but two of my favorites are "New York Movie" and "Chop Suey." Best Regards, Mrs. MK

Suspenders! I think guys look so cute in a white shirt, tweed slacks and suspenders. It gives him a bit of a vulnerable look...very sweet. Mrs. MK

It was better then than now In my opinion, things are worse now than they were. As far as raising kids, I think you have to have a balance with children. They need to learn to be responsible as is appropriate for their age, but I don't think they should be pushed into growing up too soon.

. Honey, you have always talked to yourself, and it helps you think. The weird thing is when I'm alone I do it too! Mrs. MK;)

Makeup411.com I have to put a plug in here for Makeup411.com. I contains an endless catalog of celebrity faces and lists the make-up they actually wore for that photo. There are also some great tips by Hollywood make-up artists. Mrs. MK

The Vintage Fit I for one have never been one to try to show off my less attractive features, and I always try to find clothes that flatter the shape that I have, though it's less than perfect. I love the way vintage dresses fit me. They are made to flatter an even less than perfect body. I...

The Wonder Pets theme The Wonder Pets theme (a kids show) goes through my head and me and my five year old daughter take turns singing our conversations to the tune of it. It's rather like opera. When I was in high school I had a song in my head for weeks, an old jazz standard called I...

Chocolate for asthma Dark chocolate is acquired for me, but I do like it and sometimes I like milk chocolate. I think my palate has changed since I was younger. Also, I can't stand Hershey's chocolate. After eating the good stuff, Hershey's tastes like ... well, I won't say it here in polite...

What can I do without? I was thinking of this question in regard to all the modern conveniences we enjoy. There are quite a lot of things I could do without if I had to. But if I name them will I be put to the test? Let's hope not. I really appreciate the conveniences. Hot running water...

My favorite pie.. Pie is one of those cool desserts that is old fashioned. I love (all homemade) apple pie , banana cream pie, pumpkin, chocolate mousse pie, pecan pie, etc. I could eat pie for every meal. Of course, I don't because of the obvious poundage that would quickly add up! I also...

Good Eats Here are some of my favorites. Keep in mind I am gluten intolerant, and allergic to beef, milk, cow's cheese and eggs (somewhat). 1) Rack of lamb, so tender it melts off the bone, with carrots, onions and potatoes. 2) Aged goat cheese, served with crispy rice crackers. 3)...

Here are my faves What a fun question for me to answer because I'm a very color-oriented person by nature. In my house I love sage green, light gold, taupe, hints of antique red (orangish). The only blue that ends up in my home is usually in artwork. Clothes: black, beige, peach, terracotta...

The truth about The DaVinci Code I know a lot of people are interested in this movie, and it may be an entertaining movie. However, I have reason to believe that the "facts" the author cites are bogus. I found a good article about it if you want to check it out: http://www.jesusanddavinci.com/...

. I like to sit at home and watch a movie in my pajamas. I also love to go out, as long as it's a nice theater. Vancouver, Washington has some nice new theaters, and there are many other "interesting" old theaters around too. This one posted twice. I guess the moderator has to delete it. Can...
