Ask ten people how they
feel about Valentines
Day and it would be
plausible, if not definite, to get
ten different answers. Some sug-
gest it is a created holiday
only conceived to make money
by manipulating women and
men in its importance. Others(read as single people) take a
more bitter stance to the day
and its in-your-face (you cant
open your eyes without seeing a
heart), over priced flowers (it
does get ridiculous), chocolate
covered everything (well every-
one loves chocolate covered on
something) approach that is
Valentines Day.
Whatever one may think,
in reality the day of love issimply that; one day out of the
year that calls out everybody
and brings his or her feelings to
the forefront. Whether single or
committed, Valentines Day
makes you think about loved
ones. Silly at times with a little
too much focus on the material
aspects of it, February 14th is
not about giving or receiving
gifts, although lately it hasevolved to that. At its core,
Valentines Day is about dedi-
cating yourself unconditionally
to a loved one for 24 hours.
One may say that people
should always treat each other
this way and its true, but unfor-
tunately unrealistic. Too many
times we get caught in the daily
web of work, responsibilities,
and other frivolous tasks thatseem important on any given
day. Valentines Day makes peo-
ple check themselves and
reminds them of what is essen-
tial; why they work hard every
day and night, and that is for
the people we love. If it were up
to most of us we would be on a
beach somewhere not stressing
about tomorrow and loving
today, instead we work hardhour to hour losing countless
nights of sleep, and we do it for
the people we love. I do not see
anything wrong with a day that
reminds us of that.
Happy Valentines Day, make
the best out of it. Love ya!

In my more than 30 years
in the financial services
industry, I have found
that quite a few people have
no clue about correct andprudent retirement planning
to include: asset accumula-
tion and lifetime income
planning, portfolio manage-
ment, inter-generational
wealth transfer (estate plan-
ning), long-term care plan-ning, the purchase of disabil-
ity insurance - health insur-
ance - liability insurance and
life insurance, mutual funds,
annuities, Medicare and
Social Security benefit plan-
ning, reverse mortgages,when to refinance a mort-
gage, buying vs. leasing a car,
owning vs. renting a home,
pension elections for income
maximization and what to do
with a settlement from a law-
suit, lottery winning or aninheritance.
So, after careful consid-
eration and thought, I have
decided to solicit financial
questions from my loyal read-
ers of Life and Leisure so that
I may respond to your exact
concerns in this column
every issue. Much like a Dear

umn, readers may write, send
an email, or send a fax with
their question(s) to me for aresponse in this publication,
for all to benefit. All ques-

Back by popular demand,The Women of Temple Beth
Tikvah (WTBT) of Wayne,
New Jersey, is again planning a
Swing into Spring runway
fashion show, tricky tray and
dinner to be held at The
Brownstone, Paterson, New
tions that a reader may ask.
I receive inquires and
questions from readers peri-
odically by email, by phone
and some by appointment,but, never has the thought
occurred to me, until now, to
request a readership wide
audience participation of the
questions and their answers
that either you felt there was
no one to ask or perhaps were
too embarrassed to ask or
maybe too hesitant to ask
because of a cost or a fee. In
this case you may ask your
financial question withoutany reservation or compensa-
tion requirement; so youre
encouraged to send me all
your questions today! If you
would prefer that your ques-
tion and the answer not be
published, simply say so in
your request and we can dis-
cuss it by phone or in person,
with the strictest of confi-
dence. Every attempt will be
made to answer all questions
received, but, no assurances
or guarantees should be
assumed or implied.
Some might find this
question and answer experi-ment entertaining or humor-
ous to say the least, while
others might find it purely
educational in nature. It is
my goal to keep this fast-
paced, energetic and light-
hearted, yet poignant and
accurate. To get everyone
started, there will be a $10.00
gift certificate to a local
eatery for the first ten people
who send in their questionsand I hope you are one of
them! If you would like to
suggest a certain topic within
financial planning that you
would like editorial to be
written about, please include
it with your questions. My
contact info appears below.

your participation.

Curvaceous figures
were once coveted
before it became in
vogue to be thin to meet the
concept of modern-day beau-
ty. Although waif models still
dominate the runways at
major fashion shows, it seems
that the plus-size figure is
once again being recognizedand embraced by the fashion
community -- and the world.
Big and beautiful
Sir Peter Paul Rubens
was a 16th and 17th century
Flemish painter, perhaps best
known for selecting women
with curvaceous, voluptuous
figures as the subject matter of
his work. Before the 20th cen-
tury, historians say that
women who were consideredattractive displayed bodies
ripe with curves.
During the periods of
time many refer to as the
Middle Ages and beyond,
plus-size figures were coveted.
Paintings and sculptures of
this time -- those even outside
of Ruben's domain -- clearly
show chubbier figures, which
were considered to be appeal-
ing. That's because one's
weight was often a sign of hisor her social status. Wealthy
people were able to afford and
indulge in the fattening foods
that would pack on the
pounds. Therefore, poor peo-
ple who also may have been
thin were not seen as attrac-
tive. Today these Rubenesque
figures are regarded as being
too fat in areas of the world
where food is plentiful. In
fact, the tides may haveturned completely. Where
weight was once a sign of opu-
lence, today obesity is largely
a problem of the lower class.
But in countries where starva-
tion still occurs, heavier
women are often considered
as being more beautiful.
Thin is in?
Estimates suggest that 8
million Americans have an
eating disorder, although this
number may be higherbecause many people with an
eating disorder fail to disclose
it or seek treatment. A study
by the National Association
of Anorexia Nervosa and
Associated Disorders reported
that 5 to 10 percent of anorex-
ics die within 10 years after
contracting the disease; 18 to
20 percent of anorexics will be
dead after 20 years and only
30 to 40 percent ever fullyrecover.
Although anorexia,
bulimia and other disorders
are classified as mental
illnesses, there are some
women (and men) who
have attested to the fact
that media portrayals of
thinness as a sign of
beauty have impacted
their body images on
various levels. Many
health experts have stat-ed that the proliferation
of eating disorders and
depression over body
image is largely influ-
enced by the media.
Studies have indicated
that two out of five women
and one out of five men would
trade three to five years of
their life to achieve their
weight goals. And 80 percent
of women who answered apast People magazine survey
responded that images of
women on television and in
the movies make them feel
insecure.
The rise of plus-size
While no doctor or
health expert will tell you it is
healthy to be obese, the factremains that every person's
body is different. There are
healthy women who wear a
size 4 and healthy
women who wear a size
14. More and more peo-
ple are beginning to
embrace their bodies as
they are, and that switch
has given rise to an
increase in the number
of plus-size models and
personalities appearingin major campaigns.
Model Crystal Renn
is just one proponent of
the movement for all
sizes to be viewed as
beautiful. Renn, who
authored the 2009 "Hungry:
A Young Model's Story of
Appetite, Ambition and the
Ultimate Embrace of Curves,"
nearly lost her life due to
anorexia and other extrememeasures she endured to walk
the catwalk with a fashion-

Chiropractic doctors
have long held that
posture - meaning
body alignment and balance -
is intimately related to
health. As a chiropractor, I
am encouraged to see medi-
cine is now acknowledging
the power of this relationship.
An article in the AMER-
ICAN JOURNAL OF PAIN
MANAGEMENT, entitled
"Postural and Respiratory
Modulation of Autonomic
Function, Pain and Health" by
J. Lennon, illustrates the
gains medicine has made in
recognizing the effect of pos-
ture on health. Some of the
points expressed include:
Posture, and normal physi-
ology and function, are inter-
related.
Abnormal posture is evi-
dent in patients with chronic
pain-related conditions suchas backache, headache and
stress-related illness.
Posture affects and moder-
ates every physiologic func-
tion, both consciously and
unconsciously, from breath-
ing to hormonal production
to thinking.
It appears homeostasis and
autonomic regulation are
intimately connected with
posture.
Despite the considerable
evidence posture affects
physiology and function, the
significant influence of pos-
ture on health is missed or
not addressed by most physi-
cians.
Helping improve and
maintain correct posture is
one of the primary goals of
chiropractic care. Regular
evaluation of posture and
spinal alignment is vital to
ensuring not only normal
spinal function, but good
health. For this reason, it is
important that chiropracticcare should begin early in
childhood and continue
throughout life.
Has your family been

Drs. Glenn and Christine Foss
are the owners of Advance
Sports Medicine & Chiroprac-
tic Center in Riverdale. Both

chiropractic for over thirteen
years and have been amongst
the communities leading health
care providers. As innovators
in health care, they have
merged chiropractic and physi-
cal rehabilitative services to-
gether to enhance the quality of
patient care and overall treat-
ment outcome. If you have

Tax returns for 2011 are
barely begun but it is
not too early to start
thinking about tax planning
strategies for 2012. This is by
no means an all-encompassing
list, so be sure to discuss your
specific situation with your
tax professional. Some impor-
tant tax code changes for
2012 are:
Individuals
Each personal and
dependent exemption is
$3,800 - an increase of $100
over 2011.
The 2012 standard item-
ized deduction rose slightly. A
taxpayer filing as single (or
married filing separately), saw
a $150 increase to the basic
deduction as it rose to $5,950.
Married couples filing a joint
return gained a $300 deduc-
tion to $11,900. Those filing
as Head of Household have an
additional $200 deduction as
the amount increased to
$8,700.
The maximum earned
income tax credit for low and
moderate income workers rose
to $5,891 for 2012, a $140
increase from 2011.
Standard mileage rates
regarding charitable miles
driven remained unchanged
at 14 cents per mile. The
deduction for medical mileage
changed to 23 cents per mile.
Business miles driven
increased to 55.5 cents per
mile for most vehicles earlier
in 2011 and that amount
remains unchanged going into
2012.Though the credit
amounts don't change for
2012, the modified adjusted
gross income threshold at
which the lifetime learning
education credit begins to
phase out is $104,000 for joint
filers and $52,000 for single
filers. This is up from
$102,000 and $51,000, respec-
tively.
Perhaps the item withthe potential for greatest
impact is the decreased
Alternative Minimum Tax
(AMT) exemption from
$74,500 to $45,000 for a mar-
ried couple. Single taxpayers
and those filing Head of
Household experience an
exemption decrease from
$48,450 to $33,750. Be sure to
discuss this change with your
tax professional - the poten-
tial impact could be signifi-
cant.
Lastly, the FICA ceiling
rose to $110,100 from
$106,800. The good news is
that the employee rate
remains at 4.2% at least
through February 29, 2012.
Currently, that rate is slated to
increase to the historic rate of
6.2% after that date, but many
believe the lower rate will be
extended for the entire year.
Touch base with your CPA in
mid-February to see what hap-
pens.
Businesses
Depreciation is often a
significant deduction for busi-
nesses. Unfortunately, two sig-
nificant depreciation deduc-
tions decreased for 2012. The
Code Section 179 deduction
for equipment purchases is
$139,000 of the first $560,000
of business property placed in
service during 2012. This is
down from $500,000 of the
first $2,000,000 in 2011. First-
year bonus depreciation also
decreased to 50% of qualified
property (down from 100%).
Many other very specific
changes occurred regarding
certain employee fringe bene-
fits, estimated tax payments
and qualified retirement plans
- to mention just a few.
Please keep in mind this is not
a complete list of changes for
tax year 2012 - and there like-
ly will be further changes as
the year progresses. Due to
current economic conditions -
and the fact that this is an
election year - it is more
important than ever to keep
in contact with your CPA.
Income tax planning is only
one of the many ways to
increase your wealth poten-
tial!

Valentines Day is upon
us. This is a day to
celebrate our loved
ones and show them we care.
We also have to take care of
our fourlegged loved ones as
some Valentines Day gifts and
ideas may be hazardous to your
pets.
The most obvious warn-
ing is: Dont Let Your Pets Eat
Chocolate. Chocolate is one
of the traditional gifts on
Valentines Day but can be
very dangerous to pets, even
life threatening. The toxic
compounds in chocolate
are methylxanthines, mainly
theobromine and less impor-
tantly caffeine. The amounts
of theobromine and caffeine
vary with the type of choco-
late. For instance, unsweet-
ened (Baker's) choco-
late contains 8-10
times the amount of
theobromine as milk
chocolate. This is a
very common toxicity
in dogs and seen less
in cats just by nature
of their eating habits.
Clinical signs of
chocolate toxicity
usually occur within 6
to 12 hours of inges-
t ion. Theobromine
affects the body as
a Central Nervous
System (CNS) stimu-
lant, cardiovascular
stimulant, increases blood
pressure and nausea.
Therefore, common signs of
chocolate toxicity are: vomit-
ing, diarrhea, hyperactivity,
tremors, seizures, fast heart
rate and, in severe cases,
death. If your pet ingests
chocolate, contact your veteri-
narian or poison control
immediately for treatment.
Also, knowing the type and
quantity of chocolate ingested
is helpful.
Another potential hazard
for pets on this sweet holiday
is any sugar-free gum or
candy. They commonly con-
tain the sugar substitute xyli-
tol. Signs of xylitol toxicity
can be seen as quickly as 30
minutes and causes a sudden
drop in the bodys blood sugar
(hypoglycemia). This may
result in weakness, depression,
loss of coordination, seizures,
coma and even liver
failure. Treatment should be
initiated immediately if inges-
tion occurs.
Some holiday flowers,
though they are romantic, can
be toxic for your pet. The
biggest culprits are lilies. They
are highly toxic to cats so
make sure your cats cant get
near them or choose a differ-
ent variety of flower
but not tulips (the
bulbs are the most
toxic), amaryllis,
daisies, chrysanthe-
mums or any flowers
with thorns may be
potentially dangerous
flowers.
Leftover gift-wrapping or
decorations are enticing for
curious cats. Make sure all rib-
bons, bows and other wrap-
ping are out of your pets reach
and cleaned up. Cats especial-
ly like chewing on strings or
ribbons which can cause chok-
ing or worse an obstruction in
the intestines that could
require emergency surgery.
Candles are also a nice
touch on Valentines Day but
not to paws and fur. Dont
leave candles unattended as
pets can easily be burned or
the candles could be knocked
over causing a fire.
One last warning is pets
given as gifts. Puppies and
kittens are very cute and cud-
dly but owning a pet is a big
undertaking. Purchasing a pet
should be done in a responsi-
ble way and only after a lot of
research. If youre ready, you
should consider adopting a pet
from your local shelter. These
steps can be done together
and are romantic and reward-
ing.
Have a sweet and safe
Valentines Day!

Space is often
at a premium
when trans-
porting children in a
car. Safety seats tend
to be cumbersome
and take up a lot of
the seat room in a
vehicle. In most
areas, law mandates
some sort of safety
seat is necessary
until a child is 8 or 9
years old and meets
a certain weight
maximum. That can mean
many years of squeezing the
kids into the car, or missing
out on carpool opportunities
due to safety seats. But a new
category of inflatable safety
seats could change the way
many drivers view car and
booster seats.
Products like Go
Booster(R) and BubbleBum(R)
were the invention of inno-
vators in Europe who have
now brought their creations
to North America. There are
also many other brands still
being produced in Europe,
including the Luftikid(R).
Inflatable booster
seats are lightweight
and durable. They
often weigh less than
2 pounds. Plus, they
inflate and deflate
quickly, making these
seats the ultimate in
portable options.
Theres no need to
worry about safety,
either. In ordered to
be sold in the United
States and Canada,
any type of child safe-
ty seat must be rigorously
crash tested to comply with
strict vehicle safety stan-
dards. With a smaller profile,
these seats can also save
room in a vehicle, prevent-
ing the need to upsize to a
larger truck or van.
Did you know?
Starting in
February, the
Wayne Lions
Club will be screen-
ing the eyes of Wayne
children in pre-
schools and nursery
schools throughout
the town. This is a
free service to the
community. The
screening involves the use of a
machine that tests for the pres-
ence of Anisometropia
(unequal refractive power),
Strabismus (misalignment of
eyes), Media opacities
(cataracts), Amblyopia (lazy
eye), Astigmatism, Farsight-
edness and Nearsightedness
The screening results are being
reviewed by Scott Silodor,
MD, an eye doctor in Wayne.
If there are any irregularities
the parents will be contacted
and it will be suggested that
they take their child to an eye
doctor for further testing.
The machine used for
doing these measurements is
a WelchAllyn SureSight.
Although simple to use, it does
involve a training session. In
this photo, Joann Gold
(of Wayne Rotary)
screens the eyes of
Wayne Rotary Pre-
sident, Barbara
Schroeder. Monitoring
the test is Marty
Bookman, Eye Pro-
gram Chairman for the
Wayne Lions. He came
to a Rotary meeting to
demonstrate the machine and
ask for more volunteers.
Readers who would like to vol-
unteer to help with these
important tests can contact
Marty Bookman by calling his
home at 862-221-9105, his
cell phone at 914-714-9439 or

P
remature babies or pre-
emies come into the
world when a pregnan-
cy lasts fewer than 37 weeks.
Full term babies are born
between 38 to 42 weeks.
Because of their early arrival,
premature infants have differ-
ent needs than that of a full
term infant.
Premature babies may
begin their lives in the neona-
tal intensive care unit
(NICU) or the special care
nursery. The NICU is
designed to provide an atmos-
phere that limits stress, meets
the basic needs of warmth,
nutrition and protection to
assure proper growth and
development. After the child
leaves the NICU, careful
attention should be paid to
the development of the nerv-
ous system. In the early
months of life all of the senso-
ry systems impose incredible
degrees of sensory stimulation
on the baby. The sensory sys-
tems includes the visual, tac-
tile (touch), auditory (hear-
ing), olfactory (smell), propri-
oceptive and kinesthetic
(body awareness).
The baby must learn how
to regulate all of the incoming
sensory information in order
to be at an optimal state to
learn new skills. This regula-
tion is more difficult for a pre-
mature baby. A pediatric
physical therapist can assess
the premature babys ability to
regulate the incoming sensory
stimuli and teach the parents
how to recognize when the
baby is stressed or not alert.
The therapist can also deter-
mine the cause of the stress
and thereby decrease and pre-
vent it. When the baby is
stressed there can be changes
in the babys breathing, heart
function, skin color and diges-
tion. Some indications of
stress are:
Hiccupping.
Changes in skin color (mot-
tling or cyanosis (bluish color
from lack of oxygen)
Temperature change.
Tremors or startles.
Spitting up or bowel move-
ments.
Changes in muscle tone ie:
very flaccid or floppy (hypo-
tonic) or stiff (hypertonic).
Crying and fussiness are
common with difficulty con-
soling.
The babys state whether
it is stressed or calm, plays a
vital role in the babys motor
development. As the baby
receives input from the senso-
ry systems listed above, it is
then integrated with the
motor system and enables the
baby to adjust his head, body
and limbs in space in relation
to each other and gravity.
When the baby is in an organ-
ized or non stressed state the
motor system functions easily
with smooth movements and
postures. When the baby is
calm he can then attend to
and interact with his environ-
ment and learn new skills.
A premature baby that
has an impaired sensory sys-
tem may often demonstrate
signs of stress. This impair-
ment can cause the premature
baby to utilize poor move-
ment patterns early in devel-
opment that can lead to
major motor related problems
later in life.
Babies with movement
impairments do not practice a
variety of movements and are
usually only able to maintain
a few positions and rarely
alternate between positions.
Because they are not using a
variety of movement patterns
they have difficulty activating
and elongating all of their
muscles. The baby may never
develop full motion at all of
his joints making him vulner-
able to musculoskeletal defor-
mities.
The goal of the pediatric
physical therapist is to guide
the premature baby through a
variety of goal directed move-
ments to help the baby learn
new movements. This guid-
ance will help increase the
babys muscle flexibility and
prevent or minimize the
development of muscu-
loskeletal deformities.

How can physical therapy help my
premature baby? By Gena Livingston thin body. Renn, who fluctu-ates between a size 10 and a
size 16, once weighed 95
pounds, but now speaks out
against pressure to be a certain
weight to be seen as beautiful.
Ford Models has a Ford+ divi-
sion that caters especially to
promoting women who do not
meet the standards of tradi-
tional stick-thin models.
While these women may still
not be considered plus-size
according to everyday stan-
dards (plus size in the model-
ing industry is between a size 8
and 12), they do present a
more well-rounded example of
the female body on the run-
way. Today, the plus-size seg-
ment of Ford has expanded in
number from its inception and
has regular bookers.
Furthermore, these plus-size
models are being hired for
mainstream fashion designers,
not just those geared toward
plus-size clothing. Renn joins
Whitney Thompson,
Marquita Pring, Gitte Lill,
Natalie Laughlin, Tara Lynn,
and Alyona Osmanova as
some of the most recognizable
names in plus-size modeling.
Although it's not likely
that fat will be the new thin,
more media outlets and facets
of the fashion world are show-
casing a wider variety of body
types today.

T
here is truly something
magical about golf.
Between the relaxed
environment, the scenery, and
the camaraderie that
inevitably surfaces during
every good game, you might
say it couldnt possibly get bet-
ter than this. Well it certainly
can. Imagine golfing the
British Isles. From the birth-
place of golf in Scotland to the
sprawling emerald hills of
Ireland, these islands are truly
the hallowed grounds of the
sport. To experience play here
is to truly understand the beau-
ty of golf. Admittedly, for us
American golfers, it isnt
always easy to get to the other
side of the pond. There are
flights to consider, accommo-
dation in a foreign country,
and how on earth do you book
a tee time at some of these
world class golf resorts? Well,
its easier than you think.
G3K a Scottish-based Travel
and Consulting company is
your solution for putting
together any golf trip across the
water. You have the desire to
take the corporate or individ-
ual golf trip of a lifetime, and
theyve got the extensive
knowledge, experience, cus-
tomer care, and attention to
detail to make it happen for
you! Through a simple step-by-
step process, G3K will set up
your completely personalized
trip to Scotland, England,
and/or Ireland. Heres how it
works.
STEP 1: You provide G3K
with your details and personal
requirements, starting with
choosing the dates of your golf
trip. G3Ks most classic trips
leave on a Friday night from
the United States and arrive in
Scotland or Ireland early the
next morning. You may then
specify the countries youd like
to visit (from Scotland,
England, and Ireland). More
specifically, you may request
certain courses youd like to
play on (Royal Troon, St.
Andrews Old, etc.). And final-
ly, you state your personal pref-
erences for the trip including
ground transportation, golf cart
rentals, sightseeing opportuni-
ties, and anything else specifi-
cally you desire for your trip.
STEP 2: G3K sorts through
your details in order to come up
with a golf trip that most accu-
rately suits your needs. The
company is headed by PGA
Professional of 29 years,
Stewart Smith, and has a staff
with over 100 years combined
experience in marketing and
hospitality. They have an intri-
cate knowledge of the best
courses to play, the most luxuri-
ous hotels, and the most excit-
ing sightseeing opportunities.
STEP 3: Once youve appr-
oved your itinerary and quoted
price, the G3K team will take
care of ALL of your bookings.
From your departure from the
United States all the way to

All too many home-
owners have experi-
enced the joy of
completing a home improve-
ment project only to learn
upon completion that the
project is not in adherence
with local laws. That realiza-
tion, while heartbreaking, is
often the result of a home-
owners failure to secure a
building permit prior to start-
ing the project. Homeowners
who secure a permit before
the onset of a project will
know what they can and cant
do and can rest easy knowing
that an approved plan com-
plies with engineering princi-
ples and local laws.
Another disadvantage to
forgoing the permit process is
the potential perils such a
decision causes when home-
owners want to sell their
homes. Projects completed

Valentines Day is syn-
onymous with can-
dlelight dinners,
romantic movies and deli-
cious desserts. Although
chocolate is often standard
fare for the day of love, many
other treats, including petit
fours, can win the heart of a
special person.
Although people often
believe the term petit fourrefers to a particular recipe
for a dessert, it actually
denotes a variety of small
desserts. Petit fours are bite-
sized pastries generally eaten
at the end of a meal or at tea
time. The name is comprised
of French terms meaning
small oven, which general-
ly means the desserts are
cooked at a low temperature
in an oven. Petit fours maybe secs, meaning dry
desserts, including biscuits
and puff pastries.
Most are glaces, or
iced desserts, such
as tiny cakes. These
are often the desserts
people associate with
the name petit
fours.
Cake-type petit
fours are traditional-
ly made from an
almond flavoredsponge cake or an
almond genoise.
Other types of cake,
such as pound cake,
can be used, but the
consistency must be
firm enough to handle cut-
ting and filling. The options
in fillings and coatings is as
endless as the imagination.
Some prefer to coat them in
fondant, a sugary dough thathardens upon standing and
produces a firm, flat surface
for decorating. Others like
their petit fours covered in
chocolate or another candy
material.
These desserts are avail-
able from many bakeries andretailers. For those who want
to treat a Valentine to home-
made petit fours, one trick
is to bake the batter in mini
loaf pans and then cut in
half, or use small cupcake
tins to achieve the desired,
bite-sized shape. Or bake
the batter in a sheet pan
and then use cookie cutters
to make small shapes. Jams,
fruit preserves, frosting,
icing, almond paste, and
any other fillings can beused in between the layers.
Fondant can be pur-
chased from party and craft
stores or specially ordered
from cake decorating retail-
ers. An easy fondant can be
made from a confectioners
sugar and marshmallow
recipe.
After a romantic meal,
serve petit fours with a
dessert liqueur for the perfectValentines Day dessert.

Dining out makes for a
great a first date. A
person who is meeting
someone new for the first time
may want to avoid certain
menu choices if he or she is
looking to make a good
impression. Its wise to avoid
leafy vegetables that may cling
to the teeth and mar a nice
white smile. Basil, spinach and
mint are items that can stick
to teeth and contribute to a
poor appearance. Also, skip
foods that are bound to get
stuck in the teeth, like poppy
seeds or corn on the cob. Post-
dinner conversation shouldnt
involve picking ones teeth.
Think about passing on foods
that are notoriously messy to
eat, like lobster, crab or barbe-
cued ribs. Theyre sloppy and
require too much clean-up
afterwards. Foods that are pun-
gent may contribute to bad
breath. Garlic is one of the fla-
vorful, but malodorous, ingre-
dients that come to mind.
Onions and curry are other
foods likely to put the kibosh
on a good-night kiss.
