REVIEW: Lake George Dinner Theatre has you laughing in your salad with ‘I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change’
I love you, you're perfect, now change. How many times have each of us thought that or perhaps even said it aloud, though not necessarily in those exact words, to a loved one?

(S)mitten: History of Adirondack Buff Mittens
Mittens fascinate me; so many cuff styles, so many methods to create an opening for the thumb, so many different finishes in mittens! Favorites of mine are buff or shagged mittens. Warm and durable, they were a cold weather staple from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s in the Adirondacks of New York State. They are now associated primarily with loggers because most old photos with buff mittens are of logging operations and lumber camps. Adirondack Experience, the Museum on Blue Mountain Lake holds a number of such photos. However, at one time buff mittens were the fashion. Also in the collection of the museum is an ice fishing painting by A. F. Tait with large mittens on the ice next to the fisherman and buff mittens in a photo of hunters adjusting their snowshoe straps.
