		A Note from Danielle for July ’12 Dear Friends, I always love the summer months, for a number of reasons. I take a break from writing (or try to), my kids are home—although briefly now—and we take a vacation together every year. Everything is shorter now.

My children’s father, and […] Read more
		A Note from Danielle for January ’12 Dear friends, Every year, I tell you that I never make New Year’s resolutions, and it’s true. I HATE making promises I can’t or don’t keep, and the very notion of New Year’s “resolutions” suggests something hard to do. So I make no promises, and just hope for the best (exercise programs, diets, giving up […] Read more
		A Note from Danielle for December ’11 Dear friends, Wow! December! Christmas! Holidays! I love it. It is such a ‘loaded’ month, in so many ways.
