WHO’S BEEN SNOOPED?

needs as well.

Color, Clarity, Cut, Carat and CUSTOMER SERVICE! Well, it is the first of August and it is still hot, hot and HOT! Our local farmlands are lit up at night so the farm labor can work when it is cooler. The last of our sweet corn made its way to Safeway in July and the beautiful tomatoes can be seen leaving Brentwood daily. What a wonderful time to look in on a local business who deals with one of the earth’s most precious gifts.

To say diamonds are a girl’s best friend might very well be an understatement. No one knows that better than Mark Broder, owner of Broder Jewelry Design right here in Brentwood. He has been in the industry for 32 years and is a second generation master stone setter and gemologist. The first time I walked into Mark’s store, I was greeted by him personally and have remained a faithful client for years. I couldn’t be more honored to write about him today. I must add, that many of my girlfriends only go to Mark for their jewelry

Unlike the “mall” jewelers, Mark gives you the personal service you expect when you are in the market for that one gift, that one restoration or that “one” diamond you will wear on your left finger the day you say “I do”. Did you know that the reason your wear your ring on that finger is because the Egyptians believed the vein of love came from your heart and ended at the tip of the third finger on your left hand?

Mark will assist you in the creation of your specific jewelry piece or help you research existing pieces in his special order catalogs. From a simple gold chain to a designer ring, it is one conversation away from becoming a reality. I think this is what his regular clients like best! You dream it, he brings that dream to life, and it is a more than fair price! Another ten points. I know some of you probably have that ring sitting in your jewelry box that was given to you by a relative that you would love to make into a new piece without losing its history, well, this is your guy.

Now, another good part, he actually can put a battery in your “expensive” watch and it will work longer than 6 months and still be water-proof. Yahoo! He does repairs, resizing, restoration, laser welding, pearl restringing, and his is a “hand engraver”. Mark can take your old piece and recreate it with all your stones

to make it into today’s style and trend. He will take the time to educate you with the 4 C’s, Color, Clarity, Cut and Carat Weight to choose the right stone at the right price and to be placed in the right setting. And that is his promise!

I think the part I like best about Mark, is his desire to create the perfect piece for you comes second to his dedication to his client and his craft. Customer service is A #1! You matter to him and he will spend the time to prove it. He really is a “master” stone setter and has the amazing ability to create that stone’s final resting place.

So Mark, this secret shopper gives you 10 sparkling diamonds for taking care of me, my girlfriends and the many satisfied customers from all the surrounding counties for so many years. Now readers, go to your jewelry box, grab that old jewelry (don’t forget about your gold) and call Mark to buy, trade or sell your treasure to create a new one.

Who will be snooped next? It could be you!

Who’s Who... in East County

There are multiple benefits to developing a close relationship with your hairstylist. After time, a stylist becomes fully acquainted with the personal charm of each client, understanding what works best for them and how their head of hair reacts to particular cuts and products. For 18 years, Blondies Hair Studio of Brentwood has offered expert haircuts, coloring, perms, hair extensions, and more to valued patrons, helping them to feel renewed and beautiful.

Owner Diana Kristich always had a passion for hairstyling and dreamed of starting her own salon. She eagerly pursued this career path and trained with Paris Beauty School, Paul Mitchell, Tony and Guy, and Rusk. She has a wealth of industry knowledge and experience.

Diana has many long-term customers because she takes the time to truly know them and listens closely to their needs. The most rewarding aspect of her job is the ability to make people feel attractive. She feels privileged to work with each client individually to better assist them in discovering their perfect look.

The appreciative faces of clients exiting the salon are what make her work extremely gratifying.

For most salon patrons, their hair stylist and the salon environment go beyond departing with a fabulous look. There is much to be said for the kinship that happens in a hair studio. Having a place where you can unwind, be pampered, and simply enjoy meaningful conversation can only add to your beautiful countenance and well-being by providing food for the soul.

Blondies Hair Studio

FOR YOUR DENTAL HEALTH

Fractured Teeth Adults are keeping more teeth longer but we are treating more tooth fracture than ever. Accidents and aging both contribute to fractured teeth and you may well ask - What now?

When teeth get a little older there is a tendency towards brittleness as the pulp chamber gets more calcified and the teeth are less resilient to stress.

The potential for cracks comes with age. The enamel tends to grow brittle due to reduced moisture within the structure. Teeth with numerous cavities or teeth that support large restorations (with existing huge fillings) are more prone to cracking. Molars are prime candidates for this syndrome due to the tremendous stress in that area of the mouth but other teeth can develop fractures as well. The most common cause is accident – chomping down on a hard foreign object. There is more risk if you endanger your teeth with

bad habits like ice chewing. If there is anything good to be said about a broken tooth, it is that the problem is obvious to the eye as oppose to an invisible crack on a tooth. What you can’t see can definitely hurt you and it could happen on an apparently normal, cavity-free molar. Often pain emanates from the entire mouth area, not from any specific tooth. New instruments exist for fracture detection, but one of the most effective is transillumination (lighting the tooth from behind which makes cracks visible).

We have means to protect a cracked tooth and eliminate the discomfort they cause but each fracture is unique and requires different treatment, so early diagnosis is critical. For some anterior (front) teeth, we may be able to correct the fracture cosmetically with a tooth colored filling material bonded to the teeth or porcelain veneer can be bonded to the teeth depending on the extent of the fracture. On the other hand, for posterior teeth a full or partial crown binding together fragile enamel is intended to lend strength and stability to a tooth compromised by fracture. In most cases this is the best way to go.

In keeping with our preventive

strategies for your dental health here are some very common very human behaviors to avoid tooth fracture.

Sports without a mouth guard is a bad idea.

Chewing fingernails, pencils, opening hairpins with your teeth – Don’t.

Very hot or very cold liquids cause expansion and contraction of the enamel - people who chew ice are flirting with fractures.

Watch for hard foods like olive pits or even hard bread.

Your stress level is a factor too repeated clenching or grinding weakens teeth, wearing a nightguard usually helps with this problem.

We can treat fractured teeth but we would rather prevent them any day of the week and always let us know when you have pain that isn’t associated with decay or injury – before an invisible fracture grows.

5 Tips To Amp Up The Natural Benefits Of Your Yard It’s easy to appreciate the sights and smells afforded by lawns and landscapes, but when it comes to your yard there is much more to consider besides pleasing aesthetics and aromas.

Many would even be surprised to learn that the benefits of a lush lawn and stunning landscape design extend well beyond a yard’s perimeter.

That’s right, well-managed landscapes offer tremendous benefits for the community and environment. Here are just a few:

Mow at the right time: Professionals recommend to not mow right after it rains. Mowing wet grass will cause clumping and ruts. This also leaves the lawn more susceptible to certain diseases.

Makes you feel good: Having a nice yard with lush turf and well-tended landscapes delivers some mood-enhancing properties as well. Looking at plants and trees, even through a window, has been found to lower stress and blood pressure, while walking among plants and trees improves attention and memory.

Invest in smarter watering tools: An irrigation system saves time on watering chores, but one that uses smart technology and weather-based data will apply water only when your lawn and garden need it.

Let the clippings drop: “Grass cycling” your clippings allows nitrogen and other nutrients to return to the soil. Even better, it eliminates the step of hauling around heavy bags of yard waste.

Consider natural landscaping: The next time you choose flowers, shrubs or trees, opt for species native to your region.

These plants have adapted to the climate, so they’re more resilient to your region’s weather patterns, and require less watering than exotic species.

Ideas to enhance your yard’s natural benefits.

Scrubs the air: Beautiful greenery, including grass, catch dust, smoke particles and other pollutants to make the air you breathe fresher and cleaner.

Protects waterways: Well-maintained yards and lawns help prevent soil erosion and unwanted runoff into nearby lakes, streams and rivers.

Adds oxygen: A 50-by-50-foot lawn produces enough oxygen to supply a family of four.

Boosts home values: The yard is the first thing a potential buyer sees, and it sets the first impression. If you plan to sell your home in the next few years, investing in your landscaping now can pay dividends later. A recent study by the National Association of REALTORS and National Association of Landscape Professionals found that investing in landscape maintenance recovers 100 percent of the cost at the time of sale!

Now that you know the benefits of your lawn and landscapes, you may be inspired to try some of these simple improvements to make it look and feel even better. Some of these can even save you time and effort, so you have more hours to spend outdoors.

With these tips, you have plenty to get started on creating a beautiful lawn and landscape that looks and feels even better.

Mow properly: Raising the deck height of your lawn mower is one simple thing you can do right now to improve your green space. When mowing, the blade should remove no more than a 1/3 inch from the blade of grass.

Get Organized and Stay Clutter-Free So let’s say you are tired of clutter and do your annual or often quarterly spring cleaning, now what?

Once you’ve organized and simplified your home or office how do you keep it that way? Here are some tips that will help.

The primary tip is to give everything a place. As my dad used to say “ A place for everything and everything in its place”. A simple thought and saying but if you think about it, that is the very key to being and staying organized.

This applies to everything big and small — from remote controls, keys and phone chargers to paperwork, sports equipment and Christmas decorations.

First designate an area and then invest in storage containers or use cardboard boxes to keep It all contained and organized.

If your home is large, assign each room

a day of the week and schedule 10-15 minutes. Breaking the task down into small bite meaning one day and one room will make it manageable, and help fit it in your busy schedule. Stay on top of it! Do a clutter check each week. Block out an hour to sort and organize anything that’s fallen out of place.

Create a catch all area in the main rooms such as the kitchen and living room that tend to collect things. Place a bin in these rooms and collect Items that belong elsewhere, at the end of the week, put things away. If you find that the Items In the bin are mostly toys and games, put your children in charge to put them away.

Rethink your purchases. In order to live a less-cluttered simpler life you need to consciously think about what you want versus what you actually need. Commit to maintain a constant number of items in your home and then donate or give away a similar Item each time you purchase a new one. For example, if you buy a new shirt donate one to make room or if you want a new decoration have a place for it or donate something you already own.

Review every quarter, especially if you have children. Kids tend to outgrow clothes, games, toys and other Items very quickly. It is amazing how much “stuff”

you never use. Sorting through items every few months will ensure that your home will stay tidy and under control.

Paperwork is a huge culprit. Think about signing up for paperless billing for all of your monthly bills, credit cards, utilities etc. and then you can store in a folder on your computer and in the cloud, out of sight but just a search word away.

Keep a hard folder or safety deposit box for pink slips and other important hard documents. However designate a place for these and your tax paperwork so it doesn’t get out of control.

The key is of course to stay vigilant and you can live clutter free. But if you find you need a larger house give me a call.
