The Shelburne Museum has been likened to a grandmother’s attic. But instead of sitting forgotten and dust covered, its examples of early American furniture, toys, signs, hat boxes, tools and more are spotlighted and painstakingly preserved.
A new children’s book by a Rutland author celebrates the spirited and highly original woman behind the museum, Electra Havemeyer Webb.

Congressional negotiators agreed yesterday to a ban on a family of toxins found in children’s products, handing a major victory to parents and health experts who have been clamoring for the government to remove harmful chemicals from toys.
The ban, which would take effect in six months, would have significant implications for U.S. consumers, whose homes are filled with hundreds of plastic products designed for children that may be causing dangerous health effects.

I have many weaknesses understatement, that but my biggest one has to do with cleaning gizmos. I can turn my back on an iPhone, and recently did. Perfumes Joy Jean Patou and Chanel No. 5 excepting don’t do Jack for me; and those, as all my young hip friends keep reminding me, are my grandmother’s perfumes. I enjoy handbags, shoes and flirty cocktail dresses as well as the next gal but what really gets me salivating are cleaning gadgets.
I occasionally wonder why I am fascinated by cleaning gizmos, especially since I am not a very tidy person. I mean, it is not as if I live in a pile of rubbish or anything drastic like that. It is just that I can pick my way past discarded clothes, books and toys all littering the floor without breaking a step or sweat. I agree with my teenage nephew that bathing on a daily basis is hugely overrated; I don’t see the logic of making a bed particularly when you have to unmake it at day’s end. I am not particularly house-proud. But show me a new mop or a microfibre cloth that claims to pick up dust and my eyes light up. I cannot stop myself from becoming the latest sucker to succumb.
