Why is Labor Day viewed as the end of summer? Why not the beginning of a new season! Let’s turn that frown upside down and get a new attitude. Labor Day signifies parental […]
Do you overpack? We just had Memorial Day Weekend, which, if you went away was a simple two- to three-day trip. But so many of us pack as if we’ll be gone a […]
I’m 5’9” and, contrary to what many of Kiskadee’s lovely customers think, I can’t wear everything. Cropped pants don’t always land on the proper part of the leg (I tend too look more […]
I love Charles Barkley. Why? He is just funny. He is humble, self-deprecating, witty, and not afraid to show that he doesn’t excel at all sports. Plus, he wears lavender suits and he […]
Imagine your perfect sheath dress. Fits perfectly, great for work and dates, but it is 50 degrees outside and you have bare arms and goose bumps. Brrrrrrr! So you rethink wearing your most flattering […]

Hate is a very strong word. I don’t hate anything. However, I am borderline on this one statement, “Am I too old for that?” UGH. Older does not mean frumpy, dull, or boring […]
I admit it. Traditions die hard and one in my family is the Easter basket. When my children hit the “I don’t believe” stage I couldn’t help myself…they each continued to receive baskets […]
I love everything about the holidays…the smell of a lit fire warming a family’s hearth, the sight of brilliant and colorful lights lining neighborhood streets, and of course hearing and singing traditional holiday […]
