Three-week-old Yaba Bath & Body is
my new, favorite drugstore/cosmetics counter. Sure, there aren’t
many displays and the store is all bleak white walls and metal
shelves, but the products - and affordable prices - speak
for themselves.

It’s hard to imagine now, but just a few
years ago, Seventh Avenue was the only game in town when it came
to Park Slope dining. No one was thrilled with the uninspired
restaurants, but if you wanted to eat in the neighborhood, you
worked with what was available.

If you tell your
friends you had dinner in bed on a first date, will they call
you a tramp? They won’t if your horizontal meal happens at Monkey
Town’s screening room.

After seeing productions of Shakespeare’s
plays updated with modern dress and staged in parks and parking
lots, the Globe Theatre’s presentation of "Measure for Measure,"
at St. Ann’s Warehouse in DUMBO beginning Dec. 20, will seem
refreshingly old fashioned.

Upon turning the last page of Alison Houtte’s
memoir, "Alligators, Old Mink & New Money," GO
Girl was grinning from ear to ear. She knew she must seek out
the style guru who penned this comic, inspirational tale and
ply from her the secrets of living an even more glamorous, fashionable
life.
