The nonprofit hunger relief agency served more than 92,000 meals during its Summer Food Service Program.

Underwritten by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the program ensures children age 18 and younger receive a nutritious lunch when school isn’t in session.

First-graders got to hear from Jacqueline Woodson, a best-selling children’s author and National Ambassador for Young People’s Literacy. Woodson spoke at the U. City Public Library and discussed her new books, Harbor Me and The Day You Begin.

Holistic, alternative depression treatment

T

ranscranial magnetic stimulation (TMS therapy) is an alternative, holistic therapy that, quite simply, helps to stimulate the neurons in the area of the brain that are underperforming. This therapy is proven to help significantly reduce the symptoms of depression, anxiety and other mental health-related conditions.

Depression and anxiety are extremely prevalent among adolescents and teens, and many families are seeking alternatives to psychiatric medications that come with undesired side effects. TMS Therapy is a highly effective option with lasting effects and is available locally at TMS Therapy Centers of Saint Louis.

A safe, noninvasive and FDA-approved therapy chair uses magnetic energy to produce changes in neuron activity in the areas of the brain responsible for regulating mood. Over the course of a six-week treatment period, these areas begin to function more optimally, releasing neurotransmitters such as serotonin, norepinephrine and dopamine that are known to regulate the mood of someone suffering from disorders like depression or anxiety.

Painless treatment sessions are done five days a week and take only a few minutes.

The rate of efficacy with TMS therapy is close to 80 percent, with patients experiencing either complete remission or significant reduction of symptoms for anywhere from six months to two years.

Once symptoms begin to resurface, easy maintenance treatments can alleviate them.

“Many young people suffering

“

KIM MERCILLE, RN, FOUNDER & PRESIDENT

from depression or anxiety do not understand these feelings, which often leads to compounding problems and an overall feeling of helplessness,” says president Kim Mercille, RN. “People suffer silently because of the stigma surrounding the issue. Our mission is to let everyone know there are alternatives and that help and hope are available.”

Those at the TMS Therapy Centers of Saint Louis are experts at understanding teenagers and their behaviors and being able to differentiate between normal behaviors and a more serious condition like clinical depression.

When a new patient comes in, the staff performs

[We] take a holistic approach to treating depression… and guide young adults to make other lifestyle changes for an overall positive effect.

”

a complete assessment, meeting with parents and teens both together and separately.

“It’s extremely important to be able to meet with the child one-on-one to create a comfort level they may not have with their parents,” Mercille says.

“Through this thorough assessment, we identify specific behaviors and determine if TMS therapy is the right course of action.”

She notes that they take a holistic approach to treating depression and anxiety and guide young adults to make other lifestyle changes for an overall positive effect. “It can be something as simple as developing a daily routine,” She says. “We see the person as a whole. We don’t just provide TMS therapy and then send them on their way.”

For a limited time, the TMS Therapy Centers of Saint Louis are offering a consultative evaluation at no charge in order to better educate the community on the benefits of TMS therapy. “It is my mission to help people by not only offering hope, but also a safe and effective alternative to treating mental health conditions,” Mercille says.

While we feature so many good causes and charitable endeavors on our pages, this issue is dedicated to a particular one: the Glennon Card, a fundraising initiative to benefit the young patients of SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital. I am proud to say Town&Style has been a sponsor of the program since it began in 2011 and each year, it’s exciting to hear how much the effort has grown and how many more St. Louisans embrace it. We’re all familiar with the galas and trivia nights, which are great for raising much-needed funds, but this concept broadens the scope by letting everyone involved benefit: For $50, you receive a card that gives you 20 percent off at more than 320 stores, restaurants and salons for 10 days— places you most likely would patronize regardless. The shopping period is perfect timing for purchasing holiday gifts (and, in my case, countless fall birthday presents), and even better, 100 percent of the proceeds go directly to the hospital’s young patients. It just doesn’t get much better than that.

I wish we could feature pages and pages of patient stories to show just how much community support for this initiative is needed and appreciated. This year, we tell the story of 1-year-old Jamierson Montgomery, who seems to have captured the hearts of hospital staff. His multiple complications at birth still require regular appointments at Danis Pediatric Center, but his mom focuses on the kindness of those at Cardinal Glennon and how she was (and still is) provided calm, loving support during a truly difficult time in her life. If that doesn’t make you rush out and buy a card, I don’t know what will.

It’s a good feeling to be part of something special. And you can be part of it, too, with just one simple purchase. Our Glennon Card Participants List is featured on page 18, and it denotes the vendors selling the card as well. You also can purchase it online at glennoncard.org. As we enter the holiday season, Town&Style will continue to promote multiple ways of giving back in our community. We are, after all, a completely local paper, and we always will be committed to the people and businesses of St. Louis.

TALK OF THE TOWNS by bill beggs jr.

DOWNTOWN 〉〉

Haven’t been east of Interstate 170 in a while? (For our westernmost readers, that’s east of I-270, too.) Perhaps you frolic in U. City, enjoy a concert or restaurant here and there in the StL, go to Blues and Cardinals games—maybe even work downtown. But then you get the hell out of Dodge. That can be understood. Sort of. I mean, isn’t it almost as unfamiliar, mysterious and possibly dangerous as, say, the Metro East? If any of this applies to you, read on. If you visited the museum under the Gateway Arch sometime back in the 20th century, or anytime much earlier than July 3, you may remember it as a musty, kind of brown and beige afterthought. Today, in the completely reimagined Gateway Arch National Park, it’s the Museum at the Gateway. From above, it looks like a spaceport, an appropriate complement to our stainless-steel monument that, although completed in 1965, will remain a futuristic icon for generations to come.

The museum has received an Honor Award from the American Institute of Architects (AIA) St. Louis. Well deserved. Well, then: Anyone who’s already gasped in amazement at the transformation of the riverfront has yet to see the renovated Soldiers Memorial, erected in 1938 to honor the 1,075 St. Louisans who perished in the Great War aka World War I. Much carnage was to follow, of course, and the memorial is to reflect that. It is slated to open on Veterans Day this year, Nov. 11. The AIA St. Louis also has given a nod to Soldiers Memorial for the meticulous restoration of the Art Deco post lanterns outside, among other remarkable detail work.

By the Class of 2022, Kirkwood High School will have eliminated the valedictorian and salutatorian from its class rankings. In those four years, KHS— following the lead of Webster Groves, Ladue, Clayton and other districts in the metro and throughout the country—hopes to have eliminated much of the attendant pressure, anxiety and depression that come with trying to reach the pinnacle of one’s high school class. KHS hopes switching to the Latin cum laude system will make it more evident to students that they’re succeeding, essentially by competing against themselves. Last October, The Wall Street Journal reported that Washington-Lee High School in Arlington, Virginia, had 178 valedictorians in the Class of 2016, or one in three graduates. This really rankles the eighth-grader in me. I lived in Baltimore and was in ‘junior high’ during the decade a Kennedy was president, and my mother thought I was pretty smart. I was put in the 8-2 class, however—not 8-1, which annoyed her to no end. (It might have been 8-A, 8-B … down to, well, the classes for the kids we all knew weren’t too bright.) Honestly, I loved words, but wouldn’t have known a foot-pound from a forklift, so they put me right where I belonged. It makes sense for KHS to make this change now. Today’s freshmen need to know well ahead of time so that by 2022, they won’t feel cheated as seniors. But then, will the summa

cum laude kids think they’re smarter than the magna cum laude kids, who will feel superior to the cum laude kids? Of course. Harvard grads think they’re a cut above Yale grads, or vice versa. Everyone feels like they’re better than someone else. Well, perhaps society should be more fair. Maybe they should only award Honorable Mention medals at the Olympics.

But I bet the Russians would cheat anyhow.

ROCK HILL 〉〉

On their way to WW, I’m sure a few people sneak by Dunkin’ first. But not too long ago, that wouldn’t have been possible. Because a while back, on their way to Weight Watchers, I’m sure a few people snuck by Dunkin’ Donuts first. You see, both companies have just gone through rebranding, a recipe that includes a dash of euphemism here, a pinch of dead seriousness there, all frosted with PR. In this case, before being covered in hype, a generous helping of political correctness also was mixed in. Dunkin’ and WW, huh? Many members of Alcoholics Anonymous refer to their recovery program simply as A.A., but that rolls off the tongue easier than WW. Faithful A.A. members abstain from alcohol. But you gotta eat. WW’s ‘Impact Manifesto’ goes on for an entire page without mentioning the word ‘weight.’ Or ‘diet.’ Seriously. So, why didn’t Dunkin’ Donuts just go all the way down to DD, since this apparently is all about wellness and positive body image? Hey, that

could stand for ‘Donut Diet,’ snorts Officer Malarkey.

That’s such a cliché, says his partner, Sgt. Shenanigan.

These cops only go in for their coffee … and they both like Playboy for the articles. Before there was a Dunkin’ there, Malarkey and Shenanigan will tell you, they dropped by the Midwest’s greasiest, nastiest Steak ’n Shake at 9860 Manchester in Rock Hill, next door to 7-Eleven. That was also a great place for watching your weight … increase. Anyhow, people have been calling Dunkin’ Donuts simply Dunkin’ for ages, and the changes in signage aren’t slated until January. At the Rock Hill store, they won’t have to change the door handles: They’re already one big pink ‘D.’ For some, alas, all of this will leave a hole that WW can’t fill.

ST. LOUIS 〉〉

“Double, double, toil and trouble …” Most kids don’t know that line is from a play written by some dude who was born more than 450 years ago. Many adults might not either. Storytime Theater at St. Louis Public Library aims to change this for youngsters, at least a little. The new program offers free performances—with actors in costume, props and a set— to connect audiences to the magic of reading. This month’s show is MacTragedy, a whimsical retelling of Shakespeare’s classic ghost story, minus the fear—all shows end before noon!—and featuring not-so-scary witches, slapstick and ridiculous jokes. Each program ends with a craft activity based on the story. Performances are at library branches throughout the city. The Oct. 26 show at Central Library, 1301 Olive St., is from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. For more dates (as early as tomorrow), visit slpl.org/news.

Roni Chambers knows all too well what

getting a pink slip looks and feels like. She was an HR executive with Anheuser-Busch through its hostile takeover by Belgian firm InBev and recalls the very first time she had to lay off someone. “We were family,” she recalls, adding with just a whiff of irony: “We never let anyone go.”

December 2008, however, was when she called in an exec from Detroit, who arrived in his best suit, briefcase in hand. It was the end of the year—he might have thought he was up for a hefty bonus. Quite the contrary. “I took his phone, his computer, his car keys and put him in a cab to Lambert,” Chambers recalls.

First went the most senior execs, then the support staff who no longer had anyone to support. Chambers wasn’t naïve. Her time came in 2010. Yes, she was bitter, but also very sad, and she needed to heal. “The loss of my identity rocked me to the core,” she notes.

Meanwhile, the nation was in the grip of the Great Recession. She checked out GO! Network, a grassroots

job skills and networking group founded in 2009 to help outplaced, white-collar professionals. It started in a donated space at St. Patrick Center as a shortterm project, maybe six to eight weeks. But it didn’t shut down until 2013. Chambers was moved by her very first visit: “I saw 200 people who looked just like me,” she says. She wound up running the operation, to the last, as a volunteer. The network helped more than 4,000 execs! Only recently has she started taking a paycheck from her own firm, located in the Cortex.

Its seeds were planted and nurtured at GO! Network.

This ain’t your father’s executive recruitment firm.

Chambers has traded her business suits and heels for jeans and cowboy boots. So, is CEO the title on her business card? No. It’s ‘Possibilitarian.’ Her apparent vulnerability a strong suit, she’s not shy about sharing

her experience, strength and hope with a client if she thinks it will help. She asks, rhetorically, “Why do we walk into a building every morning and give ourselves up?” by way of introducing this recent anecdote: The job of an ad agency exec in the creative department (if that’s not an oxymoron) was eliminated.

Chambers helped him examine his abilities, his passion. What was his personal ‘brand,’ his ‘value proposition?’ He was a creative who’d been boxed in by a corporate position. But he’s an artist, after all. It clicked: Today, he’s teaching art in a private high school in the metro. Chambers smiles, pulling up a photo of a dozen-plus black books she’s filled in her years as a volunteer and professional career coach. They contain hundreds of success stories, many to appear in the book she plans to wrap up by January. Working title: The Possibilities of You. What else would you expect from a possibilitarian?

by patty hannum worry, it isn’t going to cost you much money or take you very long, so you won’t have to use all of your vacation days or fake an illness. (Though I’ve always thought a mental health day in the fall when the temperature is in the 70s should be allowed.)

First, you are going to watch a new documentary, Rivertowns: 100 miles, 200 years, Countless Stories on the NineNetwork. It premiered Sept. 26, so by the time you read this, it will be in regular rotation. It’s based on the book Growing Up with the River written by my friends Connie and Dan Burkhardt. They have a love of nature that is opposite my view that everything is best viewed behind the safety of bullet-proof glass. Anyway, over the years, because of their encouragement, I’ve taste-tested vodka in New Haven at the Pinckney Bend Distillery, shot a musket at Daniel Boone’s house in Defiance, watched corn-cob pipes being made in Washington, and eaten the best hamburger of my life in Treloar, all a stone’s throw from the Missouri River.

Before, my knowledge of the Missouri River and its towns was miniscule. I am embarrassed to say that before I went to Daniel Boone’s home, I assumed he was a fictional character played by Fess Parker on TV. The truth is, Missouri has a unique and wonderful history, and I’m not lying when I say without this state, no one would be drinking wine.

Once you watch the movie, you will want to visit the towns featured. The best way to do that is via the Katy Trail. I always am surprised when I find people who don’t know about the trail, especially since I have been on it countless times and I don’t particularly like nature (and have to carry an Epipen ‘just in case’ I come into contact with a bee). The Katy Trail is 240 miles, perfect for riding or walking, and in most places, it hugs the Missouri River.

Ted and Pat Jones provided the initial funding for the trail back in the late ‘80s after Ted rode on a similar kind of trail in Wisconsin. I had the good fortune of knowing Ted because I worked for years with him at Edward Jones.

Ted was a force, both in the workplace and outside of it, and he loved nature more than anyone I’ve ever known.

He lived in Callaway County and commuted to St. Louis every day. Sadly, he passed away far too young, about six months after the trail opened in 1990, but Edward Jones continues to support the trail in his honor.

Now that you are on the trail, I want you to pick any one of the many trail heads to start your journey, but of course, I have one suggestion as a ‘must stop,’ and that is Treloar. Besides having one of the best hamburgers at Treloar Bar & Grill, there is a new photo stop for you and your friends. Connie and Dan recently bought the Treloar Mercantile Building and, sadly, a dead elm tree had to be removed. It has been sculpted into an ear of Missouri field corn as a tribute to the nearby crops. It is one of a kind! (Well, unless you go to Dublin, Ohio, where they have a field of cement corn stalks—yuck!)

So take the day off and enjoy a little bit of Missouri.

THE GLENNON CARD FUNDRAISER SUPPORTS PATIENTS AT SSM HEALTH CARDINAL GLENNON CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL.

cover story

SAVE & SUPPORT SSM HEALTH CARDINAL GLENNON CHILDREN’S FOUNDATION by stephanie wallace IMAGINE WHAT YOU COULD BUY WITH $50. Maybe you could get a new shirt or have a nice

lunch, but it probably wouldn’t stretch all that far. But if you purchase the Glennon Card with it, that money can mean a lot. The card is a fundraising initiative for SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital, and each fall, it gives St. Louisans the opportunity to support its young patients and save money at local businesses.

This year, the Glennon Card offers discounts at more than 320 area merchants and restaurants from Oct. 19 through 28. The card can be purchased for $50 and used for a 20 percent discount at participating vendors during that period. All proceeds from card sales benefit children cared for at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon. Cards can be ordered online at glennoncard.org or purchased at 166 of the participating locations.

The program is presented by the Glennon Guild, a women’s organization that supports the hospital, and SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Foundation. “The Glennon Card is a great way to help the hospital and its patients,” says Tricia Davies, co-chair of the 2018 program.

“As a fundraiser, it’s different than going to a gala or just making a donation. It’s a fun, unique way to help kids by shopping at your favorite places.” She adds that it really is beneficial for the entire community. The card brings business to local vendors, saves shoppers money and provides much-needed support to sick kids.

In 2017, the program grew by 15 percent, selling more cards, partnering with new vendors and attracting additional sponsorships. Davies is excited that the growth is continuing this year, including a sponsorship from iHeartRadio. “It’s exciting to find new ways to reach potential card buyers and businesses,” she says. “We like being able to upgrade the program and make it even better for shoppers and vendors each year.”

Davies says that since the Glennon Card program launched in 2011, it has raised more than $1.25 million for SSM Health Cardinal Glennon. The funds support a different initiative each year.

Recent projects include establishing the 3-D Printing Center of Excellence and remodeling the 4 North inpatient cancer unit to include larger patient rooms, sleeper sofas and a playroom. This year, the beneficiary is Reach Out and Read St. Louis, a program that distributes age-appropriate books to children who see pediatricians at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon affiliated sites. More than 90 percent of families who participate have a household income less than two times the federal poverty level, and the program focuses on laying a strong foundation for literacy by making reading a regular part of pediatric primary care.

Davies notes that St. Louisans have embraced the Glennon Card effort, and everyone involved is grateful for the interest. “In the age of online shopping, it’s more important than ever to support local businesses,” she says. “The Glennon Card gives you 10 days to save money while you shop and dine locally, and you’re also supporting sick children who are being treated in St. Louis. Community is a big part of what makes the program special.” &

We are so grateful for the support Town&Style has given the patients and families of SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital, a nonprofit organization.

When Lauren and Wendy told me they were starting Town&Style, I could not have been more thrilled. It is so important to have a local publication owned and operated by people who live in the community it serves. It creates a sense of trust for the advertiser and the consumer. T&S has supported The Fur Boutique since its inception. It puts my business right into the hands of my current and potential clients. Each time I run an ad, my phone rings. I couldn’t be happier.

COMPANIES THAT CARE new balance st. louis by julia m. johnson

Each year, the Glennon Card program creates partnership opportunities to allow companies that care to give back to kids who are healing. This year, St. Louis-area New Balance stores have hit the ground running for the benefit of patients at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital. This is the second year that New Balance’s three area locations—Creve Coeur, Richmond Heights and Fairview Heights—have taken part, and 2018 brings even more involvement.

General manager Beth Eilers says previous participation only strengthened the company’s resolve to do more. This year, she says, the three stores are happy to collect monetary donations on-site in addition to selling and redeeming the Glennon Card Oct. 19 through 28. “New Balance St. Louis stores are locally owned, so we like to take part in important initiatives in the area,” Eilers says. “We love being able to see what our efforts can accomplish. Last year’s funds helped the hospital purchase 3-D printing equipment that creates replicas of organs and tissues to help doctors better understand patients’ needs.”

Through Oct. 18, New Balance shoppers can make a $1, $3 or $5 credit or debit card donation at the register, or they can use the stores’ cash donation boxes. They also get to add their names to sticky notes and place them on the store wall as a token of recognition. “The program makes donating easy and pleasant for everyone, and it helps ensure we raise as much money for young patients as possible,” Eilers notes.

She says New Balance St. Louis admires the community’s commitment to Glennon kids. “Our employees love meeting area shoppers who donate and buy merchandise,” she notes. “It’s gratifying to know people in the community have the same priorities we do. They already are familiar with the program’s impact, and that’s why they come in. Everybody knows someone whose family has been touched by the hospital’s care and compassion. It’s a positive experience all around.”

Eilers says the company enjoys partnering with other area businesses for good causes. “We like seeing how they promote the Glennon Card program, and we get a lot of good ideas from them,” she says. “New Balance St. Louis is committed to doing as much as we can to better the community.”

Eilers says she and her colleagues also are impressed by the volunteers behind the Glennon Card program. “This is an organization we are proud to say we support,” she notes.

Some participating retailers have had the opportunity to take a tour of the hospital and meet patients and parents. “Last year, we saw the neonatal and pediatric intensive care units and witnessed brain surgery,” Eilers says. “It was incredible to experience the program’s impact firsthand, and it makes you understand why everyone holds the hospital’s work in such high regard.” &

ONE PATIENT’S STORY jamierson montgomery

8 er 19-2

“I knew the best thing I could do for my son was to educate myself,” Montgomery says of learning about the potential complications. Since Down syndrome was a possibility, she researched the condition and joined a Facebook group for moms. The cardiac defect was more difficult to prepare for, she notes, since it would require open heart surgery. Montgomery was referred to the St. Louis Fetal Care Institute (FCI) at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon and recalls her initial visit to the hospital as a bright spot during a difficult time. “It was the JAMIE MONTGOMERY WITH JAMIERSON first good appointment I had during my pregnancy,” she says. “At other appointments, doctors kept telling me about developmental problems, and it put me in a bad place. The doctors at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon were calm and caring, and they gave me peace of mind.”

After Jamierson was born, Montgomery learned that he had other problems, including bilateral club feet and obstructive sleep apnea. For support, she met with Nancy McEuen, family navigator for the Bridge4STL Program, which connects at-risk parents with pediatricians, obstetricians and social workers. Montgomery has been unable to work a traditional job since Jamierson was born and says the support she receives from the hospital and Bridge4STL has been integral in helping with everything from care coordination and baby supplies to referrals to other agencies. “We were connected with the perfect people at the right time,” she says. “It was eye-opening to have people show me such support.”

The past year has not been easy for Montgomery and her son. “It can be overwhelming, but we make it work,” she says. “My baby has so much strength and courage. He inspires me.” In addition to heart surgery for tetralogy of Fallot, Jamierson underwent surgery to correct his club feet. He has regular visits at the Danis Pediatric Center at Cardinal Glennon with Dr. Joshua Arthur and Dr. Abraham Zabih. Montgomery is grateful for the attention her son receives from doctors, nurses and staff. “You’d think he was celebrity,” she jokes. “Everyone wants to know what’s going on with Jamierson when he comes in.”

He also participates in Reach Out and Read, the beneficiary program of the Glennon Card fundraiser this year. The program provides books to patients between the ages of 6 months and 5 years to promote early literacy. Jamierson already has received two books, and Danis Pediatric staff made sure the selections featured his favorite character Elmo or were written by Dr. Seuss. “We’re both excited to read them,” Montgomery says. “It’s wonderful that they remembered what he likes so he can have books he loves.”

Montgomery says this level of consideration is par for the course for hospital staff. She recalls Elizabeth Rhyne, PNP, working tirelessly to find a solution when Jamierson was having difficulty eating. Rhyne and McEuen also joined Montgomery and Jamierson at the area Step Up for Down Syndrome walk this summer. “They took time out of a busy weekend to support my son, and that really stands out to me,” Montgomery says. “I couldn’t have made a better choice of hospital and doctors.” &

In February 2017, Jamie Montgomery found out she was pregnant with her first child. While the news was a surprise, she was excited to start a family. As an older expectant mother, Montgomery was warned that her baby might have health issues. After bloodwork, a chromosomal defect was detected (diagnosed as Down syndrome at birth), and her first ultrasound revealed a complex heart defect known as tetralogy of Fallot. It affects the structure of the heart and causes oxygen-poor blood to flow throughout the body. Despite these challenges and others, her son, Jamierson, is now a thriving 1-year-old, thanks in part to the care he receives at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital.

PROGRAMS reach out and read by stephanie wallace

Reading is fundamental for learning and growth. The concept is stressed from the time we’re little, and an early introduction to books can have a lasting effect on children’s language skills, literacy and education. To SANDY KOLLER start local kids on the right track, SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital founded Reach Out and Read St. Louis in 2005. Part of a national campaign, the program combines early childhood literacy with primary pediatric care.

Through Reach Out and Read, 32 community pediatric providers distribute more than 75,000 books to patients and families and educate parents about the importance of reading aloud. The program serves 50,000 children between the ages of 6 months and 5 years, and more than 90 percent of participants have a household income less than two times the federal poverty

REACH OUT AND READ PROVIDES BOOKS TO THOUSANDS OF AREA CHILDREN.

level. Children from a lower socioeconomic bracket are on average two years behind their peers when they enter kindergarten, making programs like these crucial.

This year, Reach Out and Read is the beneficiary of the Glennon Card program. The shopping card offers purchasers a 20 percent discount at participating retailers and restaurants over a 10-day period. Since the fundraising program launched in 2011, it has raised more than $1.25 million to benefit important patient services. It was created by SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Foundation and the Glennon Guild, a women’s organization that supports the hospital. “Through the Glennon Card, we’ve been able to purchase new technology and fund programs that we wouldn’t be able to otherwise,” says Sandy Koller, the foundation’s vice president of philanthropy. “It’s really remarkable what it has allowed us to do.”

The Glennon Card funds a different project each year. Last year, the proceeds helped build the 3-D Printing Center of Excellence.

The equipment purchased allows doctors to create life-sized, detailed models of organs, better preparing them for surgery and helping educate patients and families about health problems. Other initiatives include the remodel of the 4 North inpatient cancer units; ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) equipment, a type of artificial lung that keeps the blood oxygenated in children with heart and respiratory failure; telemedicine systems; medical transport equipment; and critical therapy for kids with behavioral and developmental disorders.

Koller says Reach Out and Read was selected this year because it’s an important part of SSM Health Cardinal Glennon’s dedication to keeping children on track with their education. “It’s part of treating the whole child,” she explains, adding that the hospital has an onsite school to serve patients. It also recently broke ground on a new specialty care clinic that will serve as another site for book distribution. “Fostering literacy at a young age is hugely important,” Koller says. “It helps children learn better, creates a bond with parents and gives pediatricians a chance to connect with patients.” The program has seen success. There have been noticeable increases in literacy scores for participants and a potential reduction in chronic developmental delays.

Koller notes that one unique feature of Reach Out and Read is its ability to help more children than just those who receive care at the hospital, making the impact of the Glennon Card even more widespread this year. She’s grateful to the support of the Glennon Guild and presenting sponsor Edward Jones for making the fundraising initiative possible. “Overall, it’s a winwin for the region: support retailers, save money and impact the lives of children,” she says. “When you purchase a card, the $50 goes directly to the hospital, so you get the opportunity to brighten children’s lives.” &

TOWN TALK

In 2014, Cooper arrived at SSM Health Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital for what was to be a simple surgery. His mom Kari had known that his heart had just three chambers instead of four since she was pregnant. During surgery, his tiny heart failed. Cooper needed a new heart and soon.

After three long months of waiting, the heart did come. For Cooper’s family and friends, this was a time filled with overwhelming emotion and a renewed hope at the prospect of having a new heart for baby Cooper.

In the months they spent in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), Cooper’s family made many friends among the hospital staff and other families living with similar situations. After the heart transplant, Cooper was moved to the Transitional Care Unit. The Browners were pleased, but missed their friends in PICU so they stay in touch to encourage each other.

The entire family is amazed at Cooper’s progress and is grateful to SSM Health Cardinal Glennon for its heartfelt care.

PARENT TRAP TOOLS TO STOP SEXUAL HARASSMENT by dr. tim jordan SO MUCH OF THE FOCUS IN THE MEDIA LATELY has been on

the impropriety of eminent men sexually harassing women, with no attention to teaching teenagers the tools of prevention.

So I want to focus on five qualities girls need in order to take care of themselves.

1. Self-worth: I start with this because everything else will flow

from it. Girls who have high self-confidence tend to get pushed around less because of the energy they radiate. That belief results in clearer, firmer boundaries.

Children learn by exploring. That’s true for the physical world and the world of ideas.

Community School provides the perfect place for that early exploration in a young child’s life.

2. Changing belief systems: Too many girls worry that setting

boundaries is being mean. The ‘good girl’ conditioning they have absorbed causes them to be too concerned about the other person: Will they be mad? Will I lose their approval or love? Is it bitchy to speak up? Am I being selfish? Girls need to let go of taking care of other people’s needs to their own detriment and believe that their needs matter, too.

3. Checking in: It is crucial that women continually check

in with themselves throughout their experiences and ask themselves questions like: Am I enjoying myself? Am I still OK with this? Am I comfortable with being touched like this? If the answer to such questions is not an unqualified ‘yes,’ it’s a sign that it’s time to stop and set a boundary. Other important questions to consider: Are we moving faster than I’m comfortable with?

Do I feel pressured, scared, respected, in control or safe? Your answers will dictate whether to proceed or pause the action.

4. Consent: Permission needs to be explicit, and it needs

to be given repeatedly as a sexual encounter becomes more intimate. The following do not equal consent: flirting; wearing sexy outfits; a hesitant, unclear response when asked about continuing; just seeming like you’re ‘into it;’ or previous sexual experiences together. It’s always OK to put the brakes on, regardless of what’s preceded that moment.

5. Trusting your gut: Our brains pick up on hundreds of things

each moment below the level of consciousness. So, if internal alarms go off signaling that something is not right, girls always should trust that intuition even if there is no apparent evidence to support it. Trust that your brain has noticed something unsafe, and you most likely will avoid dangerous situations.

Girls and women who develop these qualities and follow these steps will be more in control of romantic situations, their boundaries will be clear, and they will be less likely to be pressured or harassed. It’s never too late to begin this kind of education. & TIM JORDAN, M.D., IS A BEHAVIORAL PEDIATRICIAN WHO WORKS WITH GIRLS IN GRADE SCHOOL THROUGH COLLEGE IN HIS COUNSELING PRACTICE AND CAMPS.

AUTUMN IS ONE OF ST. LOUIS’ BEST SEASONS, filled

with countless outdoor festivals. Most are craft shows or beer fests, but I recently discovered another type of event: the reenactment rendezvous. It’s a gathering of folks dressed like pioneers who sleep in tents and cook on open fires for a weekend or so at a time, enjoying each others’ company while paying tribute to their American heritage. Another term for it is ‘costume camping,’ although that doesn’t capture its essence.

I visited a recent rendezvous in Defiance at the Daniel Boone Home and observed an almost patriotic devotion to honor the ingenuity of our forefathers. People set up tents—and I don’t mean the REI variety—and used candle-lit lanterns. They had portable kitchens, and most wore handmade clothing. They whittled, played the fiddle and admired each others’ handiwork. Some sold wares like tomahawks, chemises and leather gunpowder pouches. Men from Mississippi showed off their homemade venison sausage.

The smell of gunpowder filled the air since this was also a ‘shoot.’

That’s a competition, complete with judges and prizes, using muzzle-loading rifles. As best I can tell, these are labor-intensive weapons that involve loose gunpowder, dampers and flintlocks (whatever those are). No matter how many kindly ‘frontiersmen’ tried to explain it, the effort was pretty much lost on me. I’m only sorry I missed the rest of the competition, which involved a bow shoot and, I think, a tomahawk throw. This particular rendezvous— there are many across the country, including at nearby Fort de Chartres in Illinois and Old Mines, Missouri—was sponsored by the Trappers of Starved Rock, an Illinois shooting club.

Among the things I learned: an animal’s brain oil can be used to tan its hide (that’s how the Plains Indians did it); cattle horns can be scraped, sanded and boiled to hold gunpowder; game meat tastes gamey only if it hasn’t been fully drained of blood and gore before cooking; and buckskin clothing was so popular back in the day because it protects from thorns and brambles in the wilderness (not because it looks cool!).

So why, you might wonder, do people brave the elements to sleep in tents, haul their own water and eat only what they can bring into the rendezvous (or maybe hunt on-site)? That is the question I posed the ‘living historians’ I met. It’s a pastime, a shared interest among people who revere their communal history. But most of all, they said it was an activity they got hooked on years ago. As one participant explained: “At night, it’s just gorgeous with only the lanterns, candles and fires glowing in the dark. And the stars above.”

Each year, more than 700,000 Americans opt for facial plastic surgery. The demand is there, and SLUCare Physician Group helps men and women put a fresh face forward at its new cosmetic surgery office and medical spa in Creve Coeur. The practice, which opened this past spring, offers the latest technology along with compassionate care to help patients love the way they look.

Facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon Dr. Frank Simo says the office provides a complete slate of facial care services, from skin aesthetics and spa treatments to surgery, using the most up-to-date, proven techniques. “We use versatile, stateof-the-art Halo laser equipment in the spa and operating room for skin resurfacing as well as deeper treatments,” Simo explains. “Our well-educated and highly experienced staff provides excellent results.” The practice offers surgical solutions like face-lifts, rhinoplasty, and eyelid and neck lifts, plus treatments like Botox, Juvederm and Restylane.

Experienced medical estheticians are on staff to provide advice and educate patients about caring for their skin.

“Following a procedure with a good skin care regimen is the icing on the cake,” Simo says. “Surgery and treatments are only half of the equation. If you make a commitment to the right skin maintenance, it will show.” This includes eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, keeping skin hydrated and protecting it from UV radiation. “I’ve seen patients come back 10 years later for other services, and their results are still amazing because our treatments work and they have taken our advice.”

Simo has been seeing patients in St. Louis for nearly three decades, and his colleague, facial plastic and reconstructive

Dr. Scott Walen & Dr. Frank Simo

surgeon Dr. Scott Walen, has an extensive background in research and physician training. Both are affiliated with Saint Louis University School of Medicine. “With the resources of a major academic medical center behind us, we’re able to continually answer the question, ‘How can we do things even better?’” Walen notes.

He says many people in their 30s and 40s are interested in subtle treatments like injectable fillers and skin care products, and those in their 50s and 60s frequently request more involved procedures and surgeries. “Dr. Simo and I have the expertise to assist adults of any age or demographic,” Walen says.

The practice also welcomes those who just want to learn how to care for their skin better. “Our estheticians can counsel patients about a customized, consistent regimen of products to use at home,” Walen notes. “We get a detailed history and look at skin type, age, health issues and more to determine a plan that fits a patient’s needs and budget.”

Simo says SLUCare employees bring significant expertise to each visit and add a special level of compassionate care.

“Our staff provides a comfortable, stress-free and enjoyable experience,” he notes.

BEAUTY from -toA Z B Y ST E P HANIE WALLAC E

Whether you’re replicating looks from YouTube and Instagram or simply trying something new, wading into the world of hair and makeup trends can be daunting.

Beauty comes with its own language, and it’s constantly evolving with each new fad and product. Here’s a guide to some of the latest lingo.

Glitter Mask:

This combines two of the biggest beauty trends: face masks + glitter! The glitter may not offer any skin care benefits, but it’s perfect for Instagram.

HG:

Taking a page

from Monty Python’s book, this acronym stands for Holy Grail and refers to products that are essential to your makeup routine.

H U N : A half bun

Jelly Nails: This nail trend is a throwback to those plastic jelly shoes that were a childhood staple.

Bright, translucent shades are achieved by applying a clear tip or sculpting one with a hard gel and adding a sheer, vibrant polish on top.

COLD BREW: TAKESOME BEAUTY

INSPIRATION

FROM YOUR MORNING STARBUCKS RUN. THIS COLOR

TREND

FOR

BRUNETTES IS MEANT TO ECHO THE LOOK OF ADDING MILK TO YOUR COFFEE WITH A MIX OF

HIGHLIGHTS

AND

LOWLIGHTS.

Ghosted: No, this isn’t

about ditching a date via unanswered calls and text messages. This hair color trend was created to add dimension to platinum locks by mixing graphite, quartz and oyster hues. Highlights are placed so they’re hidden inside the hair and result in flashes of color when hair moves. Those quick glimpses of shimmery shades are where the name comes from—it’s like you’ve seen a ghost!

DEPOTTING:

This space-saving hack involves removing makeup like eyeshadow or blush from its original packaging to put it on something more practical, usually round or square metal pans on a magnetic palette.

TERMS COMPILED FROM STYLE.COM, PREVIEW.PH, BEAMLY.COM/STYLE, ALLURE.COM

THIS LOOK FLIPS THE SCRIPT ON WINGED EYELINER— LITERALLY! INSTEAD OF TRACING THE UPPER LASH LINE, FOLLOW THE LOWER ONE AND FLICK THE LINER UPWARD AT THE END.

THUMBPRINT EYELINER:

UNDERLINER:

Have cat-eye mishaps made you swear off liquid eyeliner?

Then this bold look is perfect for you. It trades sharp wings for a rounded shape at the outer corner of the eye. Celebrities like Selena Gomez and Lady Gaga are fans, and designers Tom Ford and Jason Wu have featured it on runway models.

Non-touring: An alternative

to the chiseled lines of contouring, this makeup technique uses a luminous primer, tinted moisturizer and highlighter to create a fresh, natural-looking glow.

ring lights: What is the secret to some of beauty vloggers’ most flawless looks?

Well, sometimes it has less to do with the perfect product and more to do with perfect lighting. A favorite of beauty influencers (including Kylie Jenner), these circular lights cast a soft, even glow and wash out blemishes. Just place your camera in the center, and you’re ready for your close-up.

OPAL:

Eschewing bold, vibrant hues, this hair color trend combines lighter, iridescent pinks, purples, greens and blues on a platinum base. The results are pearly, pastel locks reminiscent of the gemstone.

RICHARD MOORE, M.D.

HOW IS ARTAS IX ROBOTIC HAIR RESTORATION BETTER THAN THE OLDER TRANSPLANT METHODS?

AFTER

BEFORE

The Artas iX Robotic System is the next generation of world-class technology that elevates the hair restoration process to a new level. The Edge for Men is one of the first hair restoration centers in the world and the only center in the Midwest to offer it. Male pattern alopecia (hair loss) affects 85 percent of men by the age of 50. A hair transplant procedure yields permanent results. Studies report that men who undergo a hair transplant have a 96 percent approval rating, which helps boost their confidence and self esteem. Hair transplants have evolved over the past three decades. The plug transplants of the early 90s were followed by the strip or FUT procedure that left a long linear scar on the back of the scalp and required a long recovery with significant discomfort. Over the past decade, FUE or follicular unit extraction, has become very popular as individual hair grafts are harvested using a punch tool from the back of the scalp and then manually placed. This is a very long, tedious process that can be fraught with human fatigue and error. FUE procedures have the advantage of a rapid recovery with minimal discomfort while avoiding the long, linear scar of the FUT procedure. As the most advanced FUE procedure for hair restoration, the Artas iX Robotic System uses advanced vision systems and artificial intelligence to achieve a result free from human error. Since there is no excision of skin like the FUT strip procedure, the recovery is rapid with minimal discomfort. During this procedure, the Artas advanced vision system and artifical intelligence harvest premium grafts that contain multiple hair follicles. These follicles are then placed by the Artas system to restore a natural, aesthetic appearance. A team of hair restoration specialists led by Richard Moore, M.D., perform this office-based procedure, and our commitment is to get you the optimal results to restore your confidence and self-esteem. The Artax iX Robotic System is the most advanced system in the world for hair transplants. Come in for your free consultation to discover how we can restore your edge and boost your confidence.

AFTER

We call it a Nouveau personal treatment plan or a ‘French connection.’ Every practical person knows the value of a good outer layer. That’s why you wear a raincoat when you visit Seattle, use plastic wrap to save tonight’s dinner for tomorrow’s lunch, and don a ski mask when you climb snow-capped mountains. But by far, the most impressive ‘outer layer’ you’ll ever encounter is your skin—the 8 to 11 pounds of exotic fabric that you wear to cover and protect virtually every square inch of your body. We know how one achieves the ‘before’ photo qualities: years of unattended skin care, sun, genetics, lifestyle choices, and on and on, but how do we move her across the continuum to the beautiful ‘after’ photo? The personal part of the treatment plan means exactly that. Often clients say, “My friend got this procedure, and she looks 10 years younger. I want that, too.”

Personal means we are going to analyze the condition of your skin; how the aging process (even if you are 25, you are aging) is impacting your face, skeletal structure and soft tissue; and whether you have a short or tall forehead, deep-set eyes or small eyes with heavy lids, thin lips or full lips, dry skin, oily or combination.

The treatment progression for the pictured before to after was more than one treatment modality, more than one treatment per modality and over time. Remodeling, whether your kitchen or your face, takes time, and there is a process. Skin regenerates approximately every 27 days, so why does it take months to see this progress? Step one is the inflammation (demolition phase) or removal of dead cells and debris in order to make room for the proliferation of new cells in step two. Often, as with this case, layers of change are required, and results are not always evident until the base has been strengthened. Gradually, we see step three, the remodeling phase. Every face starts at a different place, and everybody responds at a different rate, but everyone can get the result. The professionals at Nouveau take, your budget, social constraints and commitments, timeline and more into consideration when designing your treatment plan. Change is achievable for everyone. To get started, consultations are free of charge and just one hour of your time. It’s time to try something Nouveau!

all about nina

When a film is heavy on the rough language, sometimes it can be difficult to see past it and discover a positive message. I thought that might be the case with All About Nina, but as the movie progresses, moments of love and hope filter through.

The film focuses on the life of Nina Geld (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), a 30-year-old stand-up comic in New York who moves to Los Angeles hoping for an important TV audition. She has a hard time committing to relationships because of past personal trauma and has never had more than a short-term fling. In fact, she has a pattern of getting herself in tangled situations with married or abusive men. Then she meets Rafe (Common), who also has a fraught romantic history. He works hard, though, to convince her that he’s kind, gentle and one of the good guys. Eventually he breaks through Nina’s prickly defenses and wins her trust.

I liked the two-fold message that there are still good people out there with unselfish relationship ideals, and that it’s possible to have a love life that is more than just a series of casual hookups. Chace Crawford portrays Nina’s married lover, Joe, and Beau Bridges makes a brief appearance as a television exec. Camryn Manheim plays Nina’s mom, who struggles with her daughter’s painful past almost as much as Nina does.

SHOULD YOU SEE IT? Yes. The film is not family-friendly, but it has its merits. J.J.

accent during this eight-episode thriller, which seemingly is about a teenager who has gone missing. But by episode two, you realize there is much more going on in this village right outside London. Can’t imagine there will be a second season, but if you like a mystery, this is a fun one to watch.

book

lake success: a novel by Gary Shteyngart. A hedge fund manager leaves his wife

with their autistic son to travel across the country by Greyhound bus to reconnect with his college sweetheart. Sadly, he doesn’t learn much along his journey and his wife starts seeing her married neighbor. Thankfully, one of them comes to their senses. I love books where you really can hate a character … or two or three. That’s good writing.

app

food delivery apps. At least once a week for the last 10 years, I’ve said, “I wish Starbucks

delivered.” Well, now they do! Postmates, Uber Eats, Grubhub and Doordash are all available in the St. Louis area. They offer food delivery from almost anywhere, McDonald’s to 801 Fish.

For a small delivery fee, you can order dinner (breakfast and lunch are available, too) for your family on a busy weeknight—or a leisurely Saturday night. It’s so nice to have options other than pizza and Chinese!

LORYN NALIC OF BALKAN TREAT BOX

APRONOMICS

LORYN AND EDO NALIC

by david o’neill | photos by bill barrett EVEN ON DAY ONE, REMARKABLY ROBUST BUSINESS suggested that

growth was afoot for Balkan Treat Box. “We sold out in less than two hours,” says co-owner Loryn Nalic of the chilly day in December 2016 when the bright turquoise food truck rolled up to the International Institute Holiday Bazaar for its first day of service. There, diners swooned over a savory handful of classic Balkan dishes.

Beginning next month, Nalic and husband Edo will greet and serve their swelling fan base in a traditional restaurant setting when they open in the former Stratton’s Café in Webster Groves. A brick-and-mortar location was an initial goal for the couple. “We started with the food truck because I knew we’d have more resources available, and it was something I could finance myself,” Nalic says. “It was an economical way to prove the concept, but we grew out of it so quickly.”

Early fanfare built on itself. “We’d make food, and it sold out,” she recalls.

“Then we’d make more food, and that sold out.” Ardent local reviews had already piqued interest when Jordana Rothman, a Food & Wine and Travel + Leisure editor, visited St. Louis and named the food truck in her article, ‘4 Reasons St. Louis Is America’s Next Great Food City.’ “Then people really started to take notice, seek us out and show up,” Nalic says.

The truck’s success is largely intertwined with the couple’s backgrounds.

“Restaurants are what I’ve done all my life,” says Nalic, a South City native who moved to Los Angeles with her father at age 14 as a high school freshman after her parents divorced. She worked in various restaurants in L.A. before returning home in 1997.

An accomplished pastry chef, Nalic earned her stripes in the local culinary scene. At the now-closed Turvey’s On the Green in the Central West End, she worked out front and in the kitchen. “I helped make things like chocolate bombs, which were very on trend at the time, but I wanted to do more savory dishes and challenge myself,” she recalls. “I needed experience.”

She found it with a stint at AzucArte, the former eclectic bakery on Ivanhoe Street. Next, to land a position at Luciano’s Trattoria, Nalic bravely approached

co-owner Marc Del Pietro unsolicited and showed him a photo album of her culinary creations. Impressed, he gave her the job. Her experience also includes Frazier’s Restaurant & Lounge, Farmhaus, Pappy’s Smokehouse and other celebrated establishments.

Nalic later took a job as a Sysco rep, which she deemed a more viable option as a single mom with two young children, Romy and Micah, now 18 and 17 respectively. The job was a twist of good fortune, since that’s how she met Edo in 2006 at Taft Street, the Bevo-area Bosnian bar and grill where he worked as a bartender and server.

Edo had arrived in St. Louis with his family in 1998 as part of the massive influx of Bosnians seeking refuge here following the Bosnian War. Even before meeting Edo, Nalic was captivated by the refugees’ arrival. “Here I was, watching in real time, immigrants coming to settle, open businesses and be part of our community,” Nalic says. “I was intrigued.” The two shared many passions—food among them—and married in 2008.

Nalic got a more personal taste for Balkan food when she traveled to the region, where in-laws connected her with bakeries, restaurants and even Bosnian families, with whom she lived and cooked. “I saw such a difference in how the food was prepared,” she says.

Her experience influences the menus for both the food truck and upcoming restaurant. The cevapi, a flavorful, casing-less grilled sausage, is reminiscent of that found in Sarajevo, while the döner, or kebab, “is what you’d eat all over the Balkans,” Nalic notes. Her take on pide is less traditional, using ajvar, a tangy red pepper relish, as a topping.

With approximately 1,800 square feet and 45 seats, the menu will be small, around 10 dishes, and feature beer and wine selections. As for ambiance, Nalic doesn’t want the place to look too sophisticated. “That’s not my jam,” she says.

“But it has to be eye-catching and very Balkan Treat Box.” Micah will join Nalic in the kitchen, and Romy will greet and serve with Edo. With the new restaurant, the Nalics are poised for an even greater realization of their goal: Making Balkan food accessible to an ever-widening audience.

CRAFT BEER 〉〉 It’s no secret that St. Louis is home to great beer.

We are blessed with an outstanding number of expert local brewers who take pride in the quality of their products. As the season changes and the temperatures cool, we switch from refreshing, thirst-quenching beverages to hearty, rich selections.

Here are my top five local beers for the fall.

1. Civil Life Brown Ale - Civil Life Brewery Bursting with baked fruit and brown sugar, this flagship beer from Civil Life finishes clean and balanced. It’s the perfect beer for watching the homecoming football game.

2. O’Fallon Pumpkin Beer - O’ Fallon Brewery Cinnamon, allspice, clove and nutmeg make this taste like pumpkin pie in a glass. I really appreciate that its flavors are balanced and convincing when other pumpkin beers can be over the top and too synthetic. One sip and you’re ready for Halloween.

3. Oachkatzlschwoaf (O-Katz) - Urban Chestnut Brewing Co. This Octoberfest lager from the brewery that specializes in German beer presents us with a perfect blend of dried citrus and toasted dough. Light on the palette, its smooth finish makes this a gulpable companion for playoff baseball. Pair with any hot dog or sausage from the grill.

4. Art Of Neurosis - 2nd Shift Brewing Dried citrus, starfruit and golden raisin combine with notes of fall potpourri and dried roses. This malty and high-alcohol IPA took the brewer 47 tries before he got the right formula, hence the name. This beer is perfect for sitting by a wood-burning fire after the first frost.

5. Chocolate Milk Stout - 4 Hands Brewing Co. Delicious milk and dark chocolate notes on the nose and palette combine with a creamy, long finish. In a world of gimmicky flavors, this beer is a stand-alone. Convincing and multidimensional with notes of coffee and toffee and a hint of overripe banana, it’s great even for the non-beer drinker. For a relaxing afternoon, grab a milk stout and a warm blanket, and curl up on the couch with your favorite holiday movie!

A STROLL FOR YOUR SENSES Around every corner, through every window, behind every door; you will find the hear ts of ar tists.

Passionate per formers, master musicians, culinary craftsmen; they all gather here.

Take a stroll, and take your senses to a place where beauty is created, and humanity is celebrated.

THIS CAPTIVATING FRENCH MANOR ESTATE IS NESTLED IN A VERY SPECIAL, PRIVATE LADUE SETTING.” —JOAN SCHNOEBELEN

JOAN SCHNOEBELEN AND MEGAN ROWE

by julia m. johnson LISTING PRICE | $2,950,000 LISTING AGENTS | JOAN SCHNOEBELEN & MEGAN ROWE AGENCY | LAURA MCCARTHY REAL ESTATE

from the agents »

NO MATTER THE ANGLE, this spacious home creates striking views. The stately, 8,300-squarefoot property, designed in the mid-1920s by Maritz & Young, is set on almost two beautifully landscaped acres. Agent Joan Schnoebelen of Laura McCarthy Real Estate says captivating interior spaces, lush landscaping and other luxurious details make it a prime spot for entertaining and family enjoyment. “You could get lost in your own paradise here,” she says.

What are the home’s most intriguing features?

Joan Schnoebelen| There is a romantic entryway with curved staircase that opens to the second floor, and a living room lined with French doors that connect to the terrace. The master bedroom is fit for royalty, with a vaulted wood ceiling, adjoining dressing room, his-and-hers closets and a spectacular bath. Everything is faithful to the details of a European country retreat and the iconic qualities of a Maritz & Young home.

What is the neighborhood like?

It’s a prime Ladue location within walking distance of MICDS and Rodes Park. The house is tucked away on a private street surrounded by other magnificent homes.

There’s convenient access to Conway Elementary and Ladue middle and high

schools, as well as the Ladue Marketplace and Plaza Frontenac shopping centers.

How would you describe the home’s architectural style?

It was designed in the French Norman style by nationally renowned architects.

It is primarily stone and masonry with many unique exterior and interior details. The home has been expanded by the current owners with meticulous faithfulness to the original design and quality. They installed an elevator and constructed a guest house and pool house around the beautiful swimming pool.

Any interesting facts about the property?

Only four families have owned it in nearly 100 years. The original owner was Arnold Stifel, son of the Stifel

investment firm founder.

Does the home lend itself to guests?

There’s no better house for entertaining, especially outdoors! Main-floor rooms open out to stone patios with landscaping and walkways, creating lots of interesting spaces for guests to stroll. Retractable awnings provide shade and cover when needed, and they enhance the charm of the garden. Walkways surround the patios and lead to the pool and grounds so the party can move around, indoors or out.

Describe the outdoor space.

The home is located on an extremely private, 1.8-acre setting with established gardens and landscaping, and the plantings are very manageable.

HOMEWORK

DEAR HOMEWORK,

We recently moved into this Tudor-style home in a lovely neighborhood. Thankfully, it has many interior updates, which allows us to focus on some exterior tweaks. While we can’t put our finger on it, we feel that the entrance could pop a bit more than it does now. What do you think? Any suggestions?

Sincerely, —TUDOR REDO

DEAR TUDOR REDO,

I think you would have a very nicelooking house if you could actually see it. Unfortunately, a major shade tree is located in the wrong place to deliver a great presentation. As you can see, after I remove it, several interesting architectural elements are revealed and very little needs to be done to pull everything together.

You will note that I have built an arrival terrace that you enter through brick and stone piers, which support an arched, iron lantern structure. Brick and stone retaining walls on either side support a formal garden of evergreen hedges and flower beds.

A new shade tree is placed to the right of the façade. It is connected to the other shade tree by a sweeping arch of groundcover, which underscores and unites the entire composition and integrates the entry walk with the driveway on the left.

The charm and detail of the façade now can be seen, and the new arrival terrace and landscape refinements make the whole image seem quite powerful. It’s hard to cut down a beautiful tree, but sometimes it just has to be done.

Thanks for asking, —HOMEWORK

According to Wayne Norwood, it’s important to view a transaction objectively, no matter which side you are on. It improves communication and results in a successful experience for all, he says.

What is one piece of advice you would give sellers? wayne norwood | Once your house is listed for sale in the MLS, take the emotion out of it. Understand that this is purely a business transaction, intended to attract a customer. In many ways, your house is no longer yours, but the public’s. Make the necessary changes to appeal to the best and broadest audience.

What is one piece of advice you would give buyers?

Remember, people should be able to enjoy living in their own space, and you might not agree with their style choices. When it is yours, you can change anything you wish or even demolish it. Criticism does not help an owner or leave the world a better place.

And when making an offer, do the very best you can, both in dollars and contract terms. You will achieve the results you want most of the time.

What attracts buyers to a property the most?

the housing crash and recession, location and value for the price are still the most important criteria for buyers (and agents!).

What areas are up-and-coming?

That’s a trick question, like “What is Baskin Robbins’ best flavor?” The reality of the market is that it is ever-evolving, with shifting preferences.

Communities that strive to stay relevant and vibrant are destined to be the big winners. That can mean improving current amenities, attracting new audiences of residents, or fostering relationships with businesses that add value or newness to the equation.

What has been your most memorable experience in real estate?

Making my very first sale when I was new in the business. I was on phone duty at the office, answering calls that came in, and the first client ended up buying a multimillion-dollar house.

is through the use of area rugs. Think of a rug like a piece of artwork.

It instantly adds color, texture and personality, setting the tone of any space from the ground up. Not to mention, rugs just make rooms more comfortable! Here are tips on picking the perfect rug for any space.

Think about scale. ▶ Choosing the right size is the most important part of purchasing a rug. One of the most common mistakes we see is people buying rugs that are too small. Unless you are living in a tiny house or apartment, your living room is probably going to need at least an 8-by-10, but much more likely, a 9-by-12 rug. The one exception to this rule is cowhides. They are a sculptural piece, so their organic shape is not meant to go under all furniture legs. If you bought a rug that’s too small, buy a natural fiber rug and layer it underneath. Layering can be a great solution to add texture.

Pick the right pattern. ▶ Rugs come in many styles, which is why picking a pattern often can seem like an overwhelming task. Choose something that is timeless: stripes, plaids, Persians, solids, natural fiber and simple patterns always are going to be in style. Neutrals and classic colors will be more versatile—but that is not to discount a beautiful, colorful Persian that will work as a neutral. A general rule of thumb is the brighter the color, the trendier it probably is and the shorter the lifetime of the rug. As quickly as it might have caught your attention, it will be outdated even faster. (Remember the big, bold and bright chevron explosion that happened several years ago?) Patterns are also a great way to hide stains or wear and tear, so keep in mind the lifestyle of the space. Do you have kids or pets that use it? If so, a distressed rug can be a great choice. It has a ‘lived-in’ look and can camouflage mishaps, therefore increasing its longevity.

Set it properly with furniture. ▶ In the living room, there are three placement options: no furniture legs on rug, front legs on rug, or all four legs on rug. Our personal favorite is setting the front legs of all furniture pieces on the rug because it pulls the pieces together and grounds the space. It also avoids having to buy an extremely large rug to fit all of the furniture. Also, make sure you have at least 6 to 12 inches of rug sticking out on either side of your sofa or sectional.

For a dining room, we recommend buying one large enough to fit at least 24 inches past the table on all sides, but it can extend farther.

This is keeping in mind the additional space needed for when guests scoot in and out from the table. No one likes being on the wobbly edge of a carpet.

Rug choices also differ for bedrooms. You have to think about how much of the actual rug you want exposed. (We recommend at least 24 inches on both sides and at the foot of the bed). Most bedrooms need at least an 8-by-10 rug for a full or queen size bed and a 9-by-12 rug for a king. If you want to step out of the bed onto something soft, choose a large rug that your nightstand and bed can sit on.
