6÷10÷09: My seg­ment has been resched­uled due to ill­ness. Date and time are to be deter­mined. Our mid­dle son, Joel, not his older brother Joshua, who was just in Japan, was diag­nosed with Flu Type A on Mon­day — Joel is tak­ing Tam­i­flu and doing much, much bet­ter, thank good­ness. How­ever, I seem to have caught a lit­tle some­thing while car­ing for him, noth­ing seri­ous though. I am still plan­ning on post­ing Fri­day, so please check back then…thanks, LG

Yes…it’s that time again. Flea mar­kets, antiques shows, tag and estate sales are all under­way, and who doesn’t want to score a piece of vin­tage per­fec­tion? Get the inside scoop on how to uncover fab­u­lous jew­elry bar­gains! Learn the sim­ple tools you can bring from home, what to look for in great pieces, and how to nego­ti­ate the best deals. I will be a guest on Martha Stew­art radio’s Morn­ing Liv­ing (Sir­ius chan­nel 112) this Thurs­day, June 11^th at 9am. My twenty-minute seg­ment will get you flea-market-find ready as soon as this com­ing week­end! Tune in, or bet­ter yet, call in and ask a question!

Next post this com­ing Friday…I’ll be intro­duc­ing an incred­i­ble new designer…!
