from the<br />

editor<br />

All you need<br />

is LOVE<br />

<strong>February</strong> in Delray Beach is full of ways to show your<br />

sweetheart love.<br />

Besides all the wonderful places you can visit with your<br />

sweetie, there is also “love” as in tennis! The Delray Beach<br />

Open kicks off Valentine’s Day, <strong>February</strong> 14th and lasts 10<br />

wonderful days bringing in some of the best tennis players<br />

in the world! And our very own Coco Gauff will be playing an exhibition<br />

game for her hometown fans!<br />

Love a good game? Well you’re in luck! With Superbowl LIV being<br />

hosted in Miami, there are lots of local events in our “backyard” hosted<br />

by the Delray Development Agency and Old School Square to keep you<br />

busy – and for those not interested in the game there are fashions shows<br />

from local merchants to attend also!<br />

Need a date for Valentine’s Day? You’re in luck! There is a charity<br />

bachelor/bachelorette auction benefitting the Joe DiMaggio Children’s<br />

Hospital Foundation being held on <strong>February</strong> 12 at Alluring Image<br />

Medspa. Proceeds from the auction will be donated to help assist<br />

children and families in their time of need.<br />

Love on a budget? We can help! Our Delray Under $50 regular feature<br />

suggests a few ways to woo your date without breaking the bank.<br />

More information on all of the above can be found inside – Locals<br />

Only, Happenings, Gotta Know and throughout the issue.<br />

Our All America City is full of things to do, see, and indulge with your<br />

favorite person.<br />

LOVE is all you need<br />

Wherever you<br />

are,<br />

and whatever<br />

you do,<br />

be in love.<br />

— Rumi<br />

Delray Chamber Leads<br />

Group Generates more than<br />

$165,000 in Gross Dollar<br />

Sales Among Members<br />

COPYRIGHTED<br />

The Greater Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce boasts many<br />

reasons why a business might want to join and participate<br />

but one of the organization’s Leads Groups, the Delray Business<br />

Partners, can give thousands of reasons why it would be more<br />

than worth joining.<br />

Leads Groups are entities within the Chamber comprised<br />

of local business people who share a simple belief—that they<br />

can be more successful together than on their own. Through<br />

leads, referrals, opportunities, sharing of best practices and<br />

encouraging each other through common experiences, each<br />

group builds a network of trust and confidence that helps its<br />

members thrive.<br />

Under the leadership of Jan Kinder, Chair of Delray Business<br />

Partners, the group has set a record for collaboration with one<br />

another. During 2019, the 35 members of the Delray Business<br />

Partners generated more than $165,000 of gross sales dollars<br />

by doing business with one another as well as by referring their<br />

colleagues in the group to other potential clients.<br />

According to Ms. Kinder, “Chamber leads groups allow members<br />

to develop strong relationships with their counterparts in<br />

a variety of other businesses. The friendship, trust, and support<br />

that is cultivated among its members lends to business<br />

and personal growth for all involved. At each meeting, members<br />

are encouraged to exchange business leads—potential<br />

clients or customers for other members of the group. In effect,<br />

their contacts become your contacts; their customers can become<br />

your customers. Members also rotate making short presentations<br />

about their businesses.”<br />

For more information about the Greater Delray Chamber of<br />

Commerce, contact Kristopher Fisher, Membership Director at<br />

The London Lounge<br />

BY Jennifer Miller<br />

Hi, my name is Jennifer Miller and I am a native New<br />

Yorker, but for the last seven years I have been living<br />

in West Palm Beach with my husband Michael and<br />

our daughter London. Like my husband, I am a wine and<br />

cigar enthusiast. I’m a wine connoisseur and my husband<br />

has been in the cigar world for many years. So we decided<br />

to combine our two passions, and what better way than to<br />

open a cigar bar, which we did on N Federal Hwy in Delray<br />

Beach. We named our bar The London Lounge, after our<br />

daughter London. As a family run business, for us it’s all<br />

about painting the perfect picture and creating an ultimate<br />

cigar smoking experience. Smoking a cigar is all about the<br />

feeling, the atmosphere and the overall experience. The<br />

London Lounge is a gem in Delray Beach where we can<br />

offer help and advice on all of your cigar needs. Can you<br />

remember your first cigar? What are your favorites? Please<br />

come by and share your experiences with us and join our<br />

extended family. For more details and list of events, check<br />

out our Instagram Page: londonlounge_<br />

Delray Under $50<br />

Most Fun Small Town, Most Crazy Small Town, Most Small Town that Feels<br />

Like a Big Town. Delray has it all. With a bustling downtown, Pineapple<br />

Grove area, and little nooks and crannies in between, there’s more<br />

to do in Delray now than ever, with events and happenings<br />

spanning from daytime to nighttime. While it can<br />

seem expensive at times, there’s a great<br />

opportunity to enjoy all the City has to offer<br />

without breaking the bank. Here’s what you can<br />

do in Delray Beach in <strong>February</strong> for $50 or less.<br />

If you are a starving artist, you’re doing it right. If you are a<br />

successful and thriving artist, you’re doing it best. <strong>February</strong><br />

is International Expect Success Month and is a perfect time<br />

to check out some artists who are creating their own successful<br />

future. The Cornell Art Museum presents the Fourth Annual<br />

Spring Art on the Square Fine Art Show, which is a two-day premiere<br />

juried outdoor gallery featuring extraordinary, original art<br />

works from more than 120 fine artists and fine craft artists from<br />

around the country. You can expect to find one-of-a-kind paintings,<br />

ceramics, fiber art, jewelry, metal work, photography, woodwork<br />

and multi-media sculpture. The Museum front lawn and<br />

Old School Square grounds will be transformed into an exciting<br />

outdoor gallery, and art collectors, enthusiasts and beauty lovers<br />

are welcome to view unique pieces of art and possibly rub<br />

elbows with the artists themselves. As if it could get any better,<br />

there’s also live music for your perusing enjoyment. The show is<br />

held Saturday, <strong>February</strong> 8 and Sunday, <strong>February</strong> 9 from 10 m to<br />

5pm and admission is free. The Cornell Art Museum is located at<br />

51 N. Swinton <strong>Ave</strong>. Visit www.oldschoolsquare.org or call (561)<br />

243-7922 for more information.<br />

Head to the usual bar or learn something new? Waste time<br />

on the sofa or take an artistic journey? Eat frozen leftovers<br />

or head out and have an active night of relaxation? Yep,<br />

you guessed it, the latter option wins on all accounts. International<br />

Networking Week is <strong>February</strong> 3 through 7 and is a great time<br />

to get out there and not only do some fun anti-lame-networkingevent<br />

networking of your own, but to also help local artists grow<br />

and expand their reach. The First Friday Art Walk is the perfect<br />

event for all the aforementioned goodies. Held Friday, <strong>February</strong><br />

7, you’re invited to explore the heart and soul of Delray’s art<br />

scene on a self-guided tour. You can enjoy art galleries and working<br />

studios while you meet with many of local talented artists.<br />

You’ll be able to navigate your way around Downtown Delray and<br />

experience a myriad of art styles through <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>nue, Pineapple<br />

Grove, The Set and Artists Alley, including Space of Mind<br />

26 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

Schoolhouse, Delray ART, Arts Warehouse, Delray Beach Gallery,<br />

and more. The event is free and super flexible, meaning that you<br />

can start wherever and whenever you’d like, and stop by any of<br />

the local restaurants and bars for a refreshing cocktail or appetizer.<br />

Invite your friends and go crazy making an artsy night. Your<br />

lazy self will thank your out-of-the-box self. The First Friday Art<br />

Walk is located throughout the downtown’s various art scenes.<br />

It’s that time of the year again where<br />

Florida isn’t sure if it’s winter, spring<br />

or summer. Regardless, it’ll be sunny,<br />

and sun brings the heat. Instead of cooling<br />

down at the beach again, take a seat<br />

in the shade and sip your refreshing<br />

cocktail while you watch others sweat<br />

it out. <strong>February</strong> is Beat the Heat<br />

Month and you’re invited to do<br />

just that at the Delray Beach<br />

Open. Held at the Delray Beach<br />

Tennis Center, the Open is the<br />

world’s only ATP Champions<br />

Tour and ATP 250 event featuring<br />

legends and top-ranked<br />

ATP stars. Not only can you expect<br />

to see tennis stars including<br />

Juan Martin Del Potro, Nick<br />

Kyrgios, Kei Nishikori and more,<br />

there’s also a special exhibition<br />

match between Coco<br />

Gauff and Estela Perez-<br />

Somarriba at 7pm on<br />

Saturday, <strong>February</strong><br />

15. (Needless to<br />

say, that’s gococo<br />

gauff


ing to be a great - and packed - match.) So, grab some tickets,<br />

enjoy your seats, and don’t sweat the yellow tennis ball stuff.<br />

The Open’s events are held Friday, <strong>February</strong> 14 through Sunday,<br />

<strong>February</strong> 23 and tickets start at $40 for standard admission.<br />

The Delray Beach Tennis Center is located at 201 W.<br />

<strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>. Visit www.yellowtennisball.com or call (561)<br />

330-6000 for more information and tickets.<br />

One trend that is taking shape so far in <strong>2020</strong> is more<br />

people are going green. There’s Impossible Burgers<br />

on almost every menu, plant-based diets are all the<br />

rage, and there’s more attention being paid to the environment.<br />

All of this is great and needs to be continued. National<br />

Green Week is (confusingly) held the first full week<br />

in <strong>February</strong> through April, so is technically celebrated any<br />

week in <strong>February</strong>. If you’re not sure where to start, don’t<br />

sweat it. Just grab your bike and reusable bag and head to<br />

the Delray Beach GreenMarket. This open-air marketplace<br />

boasts more than 65 premier food vendors featuring farmto-fork<br />

produce, just-picked citrus, tropical fruit and juice,<br />

farm fresh eggs, raw milk and butter, artisan cheese and<br />

jams, fragrant baked goods, gluten-free and vegan products,<br />

fresh cut flowers, plants and other unique gourmet<br />

fare. The best part is that all this food is locally grown, and<br />

since you’re not using plastic bags to carry your goods, it’s<br />

a double green win. The GreenMarket is held every Saturday<br />

from 9am until 2pm and there’s also live music for your<br />

shopping pleasure. Going green has never been more fun.<br />

The Delray Beach GreenMarket is located at 51 N. Swinton<br />

<strong>Ave</strong>. Visit www.delraycra.org or call (561) 276-7511 for<br />

more information.<br />

Yes, <strong>February</strong> is all about love, chocolate-covered<br />

strawberries, compliments and roses. A relationship<br />

between two people is wonderful, but let’s not forget<br />

about the best relationship you can have: the one with<br />

yourself. <strong>February</strong> is Relationship Wellness Month and even<br />

if your Valentine’s Day is already booked with that special<br />

someone, take (at least) one day out of the month to celebrate<br />

yourself. Going solo can be invigorating and can open<br />

some conversation doors that would otherwise be closed if<br />

you were palling around with someone. Start the day at the<br />

beach, go for a walk on the sand and put your toes in the water.<br />

When you’re thirsty, head to Sandwiches by the Sea and<br />

indulge in one of their famous yogurt shakes. Take a stroll<br />

over to Veteran’s Park and grab a seat by the Intracoastal<br />

and unwind as you watch the boats pass by. From there,<br />

continue your journey downtown and head to El Camino<br />

for a margarita and some guacamole, salsa and chips. If you<br />

can score a seat right by the sidewalk, you’re in prime location<br />

for some people watching. Once you’ve had your fill,<br />

stroll over to Arts Warehouse and hang out with some local<br />

artists and see some of the loveliest sights in town. Since<br />

you’re so close, stop by Bedner’s Farm Fresh Market and get<br />

yourself a rosemary or basil plant for your window at home.<br />

End your lovely, party-of-one day with a glass of wine at the<br />

upstairs bar at Elisabetta’s, and toast to a day well done. Visit<br />

January 3<br />

► The Grudge - After a young mother murders her family in her own<br />

house, a detective attempts to investigate the mysterious case, only to<br />

discover that the house is cursed by a vengeful ghost. Now targeted by<br />

the demonic spirits, the detective must do anything to protect herself<br />

and her family from harm.<br />

<strong>February</strong> 7<br />

► Birds of Prey: The Emancipation of Harley Quinn - You ever hear<br />

the one about the cop, the songbird, the psycho and the mafia princess?<br />

“Birds of Prey (And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley<br />

Quinn)” is a twisted tale told by Harley herself, as only Harley can tell it.<br />

When Gotham’s most nefariously narcissistic villain, Roman Sionis, and<br />

his zealous right-hand, Zsasz, put a target on a young girl named Cass,<br />

the city is turned upside down looking for her. Harley, Huntress, Black<br />

Canary and Renee Montoya’s paths collide, and the unlikely foursome<br />

have no choice but to team up to take Roman down.<br />

<strong>February</strong> 14<br />

► Fantasy Island - This is no relaxing island vacation - it’s a<br />

terrifying horror movie produced by Jason Blum’s iconic Blumhouse.<br />

Michael Peña stars Mr. Roarke, who invites guests to his exclusive island<br />

resort to fulfill their fantasies - they can only choose one. But they<br />

may never come home from this vacation when their fantasies start to<br />

turn into nightmares. The full cast includes Lucy Hale, Maggie Q,<br />

Portia Doubleday, Jimmy O. Yang, Ryan Hansen, Kim Coates, and<br />

Michael Rooker.<br />

► The Photograph - When famed photographer Christina<br />

Eames unexpectedly dies, she leaves her estranged daughter<br />

Mae Morton (Issa Rae) hurt, angry and full of questions.<br />

When a photograph tucked away in a safe-deposit box is<br />

found, Mae finds herself on a journey delving into<br />

her mother’s early life and ignites a powerful,<br />

unexpected romance with a risingstar<br />

journalist, Michael Block<br />

(LaKeith Stanfield).<br />

► Portrait of a<br />

Lady on Fire - France,<br />

1760. Marianne is<br />

commissioned to<br />

paint the wedding<br />

portrait of Héloïse, a<br />

young woman who has just left<br />

the convent. Because she is a reluctant<br />

bride-to-be, Marianne arrives under the<br />

guise of companionship, observing Héloïse by<br />

day and secretly painting her by firelight at night.<br />

As the two women orbit one another, intimacy<br />

and attraction grow as they share Héloïse’s first<br />

moments of freedom. Héloïse’s portrait soon becomes a collaborative<br />

act of and testament to their love.<br />

► Sonic the Hedgehog is a live-action adventure comedy based on<br />

the global blockbuster video game franchise from Sega that centers on<br />

the infamously brash bright blue hedgehog. The film follows the (mis)<br />

adventures of Sonic as he navigates the complexities of life on Earth with<br />

his newfound - human - best friend Tom Wachowski (James Marsden).<br />

Sonic and Tom join forces to try and stop the villainous Dr. Robotnik<br />

(Jim Carrey) from capturing Sonic and using his immense powers for<br />

world domination. The film also stars Tika Sumpter and Ben Schwartz<br />

as the voice of Sonic.<br />

<strong>February</strong> 21<br />

► Brahms: The Boy ii - The sequel to horror film “The Boy” about a<br />

haunted doll. Director William Brent Bell returns to continue this freaky<br />

story that first started in 2016. After a family moves into the Heelshire<br />

Mansion, their young son soon makes friends with a life-like doll called<br />

Brahms. The creepy life-like doll begins to taunt them in unsettling<br />

ways. Katie Holmes stars, along with Owain Yeoman, Christopher<br />

Convery, and Ralph Ineson.<br />

► The Call of the Wild - From the director of “Lilo & Stitch” and<br />

“How to Train Your Dragon,” making his first “live-action” film, the<br />

adventure story uses a CG dog along with real actors.<br />

Harrison Ford stars as John Thornton, with a<br />

cast including Dan Stevens, Omar Sy, Karen<br />

Gillan, Bradley Whitford, and Colin<br />

Woodell. The main star of the<br />

movie, however, is the dog Buck<br />

– who becomes the rookie<br />

on a mail delivery dog sled<br />

team, and struggles for survival<br />

in the Alaskan wilderness, bonding<br />

with his human over the course of their<br />

adventures.<br />

(Moss) escapes in the dead of night and<br />

disappears into hiding, aided by her sister<br />

(Harriet Dyer), their childhood friend (Aldis<br />

suspects his death was a hoax. As a series of eerie<br />

coincidences turns lethal, threatening the lives of<br />

A Cold Trail<br />

by Robert Dugoni<br />

Released <strong>February</strong> 4th<br />

The last time homicide detective Tracy<br />

Crosswhite was in Cedar Grove, it was<br />

to see her sister’s killer put behind bars.<br />

Now she’s returned for a respite and the<br />

chance to put her life back in order for<br />

herself, her attorney husband, Dan, and<br />

their new daughter. But tragic memories<br />

soon prove impossible to escape.<br />

Dan is drawn into representing a local<br />

merchant whose business is jeopardized<br />

by the town’s revitalization. And Tracy<br />

is urged by the local PD to put her own<br />

skills to work on a new case: the brutal<br />

murder of a police officer’s wife and local<br />

reporter who was investigating a cold<br />

case slaying of a young woman. As Tracy’s<br />

and Dan’s cases crisscross, Tracy’s<br />

trail becomes dangerous. It’s stirring up<br />

her own haunted past and a decadesold<br />

conspiracy in Cedar Grove that has<br />

erupted in murder. Getting to the truth is<br />

all that matters. But what’s Tracy willing<br />

to risk as a killer gets closer to her and<br />

threatens everyone she loves?<br />

Above the Bay of<br />

Angels<br />

by Rhys bOWen<br />

Released <strong>February</strong> 11th<br />

Isabella Waverly only means to comfort<br />

the woman felled on a London street.<br />

In her final dying moments, she thrusts<br />

a letter into Bella’s hand. It’s an offer of<br />

employment in the kitchens of Buckingham<br />

Palace, and everything the budding<br />

young chef desperately wants: an escape<br />

from the constrictions of her life as a lowly<br />

servant. In the stranger’s stead, Bella<br />

can spread her wings.<br />

Arriving as Helen Barton from Yorkshire,<br />

she pursues her passion for creating<br />

culinary delights, served to the<br />

delighted Queen Victoria herself. Best<br />

of all, she’s been chosen to accompany<br />

the queen to Nice. What fortune! Until<br />

the threat of blackmail shadows Bella to<br />

the Riviera, and a member of the queen’s<br />

retinue falls ill and dies.<br />

48 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

Having prepared the royal guest’s last<br />

meal, Bella is suspected of the poisonous<br />

crime. An investigation is sure to follow.<br />

Her charade will be over. And her new life<br />

will come crashing down—if it doesn’t<br />

send her to the gallows.<br />

Normal People<br />

by Sally rOOney<br />

Released <strong>February</strong> 18th<br />

bsolutely engrossing and surprisingly<br />

heartbreaking with more<br />

“A<br />

depth, subtlety, and insight than any one<br />

novel deserves.”—Stephanie Danler<br />

Connell and Marianne grew up in the<br />

same small town, but the similarities end<br />

there. At school, Connell is popular and<br />

well liked, while Marianne is a loner. But<br />

when the two strike up a conversation—<br />

awkward but electrifying—something<br />

life changing begins.<br />

A year later, they’re both studying at<br />

Trinity College in Dublin. Marianne has<br />

found her feet in a new social world while<br />

Connell hangs at the sidelines, shy and<br />

uncertain. Throughout their years at university,<br />

Marianne and Connell circle one<br />

another, straying toward other people<br />

and possibilities but always magnetically,<br />

irresistibly drawn back together. And as<br />

she veers into self-destruction and he<br />

begins to search for meaning elsewhere,<br />

each must confront how far they are willing<br />

to go to save the other.<br />

Normal People is the story of mutual<br />

fascination, friendship and love. It takes<br />

us from that first conversation to the years<br />

beyond, in the company of two people who<br />

try to stay apart but find that they can’t.<br />

Dead Ringer<br />

by Annelise Ryan<br />

Released <strong>February</strong> 25th<br />

Spring is beginning to brighten Sorenson,<br />

Wisconsin for Mattie and Steve<br />

Hurley and their family. While their son<br />

Matthew may be in his terrible twos and<br />

Steve’s daughter Emily a moody teenager,<br />

the kids bring light to their lives when<br />

their work is dark by its nature—Steve is<br />

a homicide detective and Mattie is a medicolegal<br />

death investigator, aka medical<br />

examiner. They deal in corpses.<br />

The latest corpse, a Jane Doe, was<br />

clearly an addict, but drugs didn’t kill her,<br />

at least not directly. She’s been stabbed<br />

multiple times in a pattern that is disturbingly<br />

familiar to Mattie. When she<br />

discovers flower petals from yellow carnations<br />

stuffed into the stab wounds, she<br />

recognizes a very specific M.O.—belonging<br />

to a convicted serial killer who’s currently<br />

serving a life sentence.<br />

The details of the flower petals were<br />

never made public in the last case, so it<br />

can’t be a copycat crime. It looks like the<br />

wrong man is in prison, and the murderer<br />

is still at large. Now it’s up to Mattie<br />

and Steve to get the case reopened—and<br />

catch the real carnation killer…<br />

health & beauty | pain relief<br />

By Dr. Safranski<br />

Sports Chiropractic and You<br />

Top athletes choose chiropractic and you should too. Chiropractic has<br />

been around for over 100 years, but it wasn’t until the early-to-mid<br />

90s when athletes started using it to gain a competitive advantage.<br />

Functioning at the highest level without pain in order to maintain<br />

a long and productive career is important for top athletes.<br />

It’s their job, it’s how they support their families. So<br />

why do they choose chiropractic? Because they know it works, it’s<br />

not a fad or a trend that proper motion and biomechanics coupled<br />

with proper strength and muscle function in the body lead to a<br />

highly productive athlete. They want to perform at their very best<br />

on the field, the ice, and in the ring. All 32 NFL teams, 28 of the 30<br />

MLB teams, and all 31 NHL teams have chiropractors on staff. Even<br />

the world’s best golfers have their own chiropractors. James Harrison,<br />

formerly of the Pittsburgh Steelers spent countless dollars to<br />

make sure that he was in in tip-top shape, so that he could play every<br />

snap and be a leader on the field. That money included his own<br />

chiropractor that traveled with him throughout the season.<br />

Why is this? These teams know how imperative it is to have<br />

chiropractors as part of their medical team. Their knowledge of<br />

the musculoskeletal systems and the biomechanics that accompany<br />

each joint make them a valuable asset to the team. Team<br />

physicians and medical staff now know that masking pain with<br />

medication and inhibiting pain pathways is no longer the answer<br />

and putting injured players back on the field can not only make<br />

matters worse but lead to much more serious injuries.<br />

Chiropractors have the ability to diagnose and treat these injures<br />

without drugs or surgery with sometimes instant results.<br />

This is an invaluable tool, making them a crucial piece to the medical<br />

team. The shift in conservative approaches to injury treatment<br />

is not only sports, but medicine is becoming more relevant. The<br />

option for surgery is now starting to become a last resort as athletes,<br />

and everyday people become more educated on their bodies<br />

and the procedures it takes to fix injuries. Looking for more conservative<br />

approaches that get results is making waves. (This is not<br />

true for all injuries; some require immediate surgery.)<br />

Sports chiropractic focuses on not only the spine, but the hands,<br />

feet, elbows, knees, shoulders, hips and all the muscles and ligaments<br />

that go with it. However, the main focus of sports chiropractic<br />

is not only top-tier athletes, but it is to help your everyday<br />

athlete be able to attain their personal goals like high school football<br />

players wanting to go to play college football but have issues<br />

with knees. Consider basketball players who are having issues<br />

with their ankles. Golfers who want to improve their swing or feel<br />

like they don’t hit the ball like they used to, or even if you’re trying<br />

to work through some arthritis.<br />

54 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

COPYRIGHTED<br />

Well, the same principles of sports chiropractic that are used<br />

on Olympians and professional athletes can be used on the everyday<br />

athlete from the young ones to the retired ones. Maintaining<br />

proper biomechanics in the spine as well as all other joints in your<br />

body accompanied by proper muscle strength and tone can make<br />

significant changes in your life and your workout routine. If you<br />

have a nagging injury or feel like you could be doing more, maybe<br />

it’s time to find a sports chiropractor.<br />

health & beauty | dermaTOLOGy<br />

By dr. thomas c. balshi, m.d.<br />

Love Your Lips<br />

Nothing is more of an icon of sensuality than full, luscious, youthful<br />

lips. Lips frame our smile and are used to kiss the ones we love.<br />

Lips are the aspect of the face that provides enormous personal<br />

identity and sexuality. Modern medicine has made it possible for<br />

us to be healthier, more active, look younger and sexier.<br />

Thomas Balshi, M.D.<br />

Enhancing the lips is one procedure that when accomplished,<br />

can have a huge impact on the overall rejuvenation of the entire<br />

face. Lip makeovers have always been popular among<br />

Hollywood stars and cover models, but now, having fuller more inviting<br />

lips is not just for the glamorous. Because the techniques<br />

and materials have been improved tremendously in recent years,<br />

this is a safe, predictable and comfortable procedure. It is easily<br />

customized to the patient’s desires, lifestyle and budget. Total lip<br />

enhancement can be accomplished for as little as $450.00.<br />

Whether an individual born with small lips wants to enhance<br />

the symmetry of the face or just seeks to plump up volume, lip enhancement<br />

can add beauty to the face and pleasure to life.<br />

Atrophy (loss of that plump baby fat) develops in the lips and<br />

lower face and as we age, our body produces less and less hyaluronic<br />

acid and collagen, especially in the cells located around the<br />

mouth and in the lips. Other factors which contribute to aging of<br />

the lower face and lips are sunlight, ultraviolet tanning beds and<br />

environmental toxins such as pollution and cigarette smoke. Correction<br />

of the lip lines may be the solution that washes away the<br />

wear and tear of life on the lower face.<br />

56 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

After numbing the lips with a small amount of local anesthesia,<br />

this procedure becomes pain free. Injections of collagen, hyaluronic<br />

acid (Restylane and Juvederm) or natural fat can be used to<br />

achieve desired results. The entire procedure can be accomplished<br />

in as little as 20 minutes and results can last up to an entire year.<br />

Lip augmentation is one secret to acquiring a more sensual look.<br />

It may also provide a more balanced beautification to the face and<br />

restore lost volume and shape. Most importantly, lip augmentation<br />

plumps up self esteem. The face in the mirror has the power to<br />

generate just the right measure of passion to capture the job, the<br />

date or the mate. The month of <strong>February</strong> signifies notions of love<br />

on Valentine’s Day with flowers, chocolate, dinner and looking our<br />

best. Why not enjoy the romantic tradition with alluring lips that<br />

surprise and inspire?<br />

By ashley sica-de souza<br />

Plateau Breaking<br />

Are you struggling to see results or feel you have hit a plateau?<br />

This is the article for you! There is nothing more frustrating than<br />

thinking you are doing all the right things, but the results just are<br />

not happening. Often, it is usually something simple. Here are<br />

some different aspects to consider before throwing in the towel!<br />

The first thing I review when progress has stalled is nutrition.<br />

You can workout till the cows come home but<br />

1<br />

if your nutrition is not on-point you can forget about seeing<br />

results. This is where a detailed food-log is helpful.<br />

Begin by writing down in a book or in an app everything<br />

you consume, and the times you are eating. The<br />

good, the bad and the ugly! This is will be very helpful<br />

to a professional in finding the areas that need improvement!<br />

A food-log will also keep you honest<br />

and aware of what you are eating!<br />

If body fat percentage is not going down,<br />

2 and you are doing all the right things<br />

nutrition wise, try this: Take a good look at<br />

your workout! Your body adapts to the same<br />

type of exercise over time. As your body gets<br />

used to a certain type of exercise and/or<br />

resistance load - it becomes less challenging,<br />

and as a result - less effective.<br />

That’s why it’s so important to push<br />

yourself, especially with weights. If<br />

you are not constantly being challenged<br />

your results will ultimately<br />

slow down. Pick up a heavier weight<br />

than you have been using, sprint a<br />

little faster, do extra reps. Push is the<br />

key word to seeing results.<br />

Now – you have been working out<br />

36-7 days per week, eating right and<br />

still not seeing results? Have you considered<br />

that maybe you are working out too<br />

much? Sometimes the body responds better<br />

to rest. Over-training could be hindering<br />

results just as much as under-training could.<br />

When your body is under too much stress, it responds<br />

negatively. A stressed body will raise cortisol<br />

levels which will cause your body to store<br />

fat! The absolute opposite of what you expect<br />

from training hard! Another thing to think<br />

about is quality over quantity. Working out<br />

every day is great, but are they quality workouts?<br />

Less is more in this case.<br />

58 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

Look at your water intake. It is such a<br />

4 simple component that people forget.<br />

Many clients think they drink enough water<br />

but in reality, they are not. Water is an essential<br />

part of calorie burning and it helps<br />

flush out any excess sodium and fluid<br />

you may be retaining. If your body is<br />

dehydrated, it will not burn fat efficiently!<br />

Aim to consume no less<br />

than one half gallon of water per<br />

day, 64 ounces. However, 1 gallon<br />

(128 ounces) per day is optimal for<br />

fat burning and it also helps suppress<br />

your appetite...a nice bonus! Speaking<br />

of water intake lets talk about<br />

your sodium intake. If you ingest<br />

foods with high amounts of sodium,<br />

stop. Your body will always have a<br />

“fluffy” look and the scale will not<br />

be your friend. Eliminate processed<br />

foods and use only salt-free seasonings<br />

and spices when cooking.<br />

If you have tried all the above<br />

and are still having a difficult time<br />

losing weight, the next step is to<br />

examine what is going on inside<br />

your body. It could be anything<br />

from a hormone imbalance to<br />

thyroid issues. Do not immediately<br />

assume this is the problem but<br />

if you have truly tried everything<br />

else, it might be worth exploring<br />

your concerns with a medical professional<br />

who can help get to the<br />

root of your issues.<br />

Delray GreenMarket<br />

Your Saturday<br />

Morning Destination<br />

BY Danielle Arfin | photos by Lori Nolan<br />

The Delray GreenMarket, which is celebrating its 25th<br />

Anniversary next season, is a food and plant-based<br />

farmers market in the heart of Downtown Delray Beach.<br />

The GreenMarket was launched in 1996 by the Delray<br />

Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) as a<br />

business incubator program.<br />

It is held each Saturday in Old School Square Park from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m.<br />

The Winter Market runs from October through May and the Summer<br />

Market runs from June to July. There are tables and chairs for guests<br />

to leisurely enjoy the fruits of their culinary bounty and is a fun place<br />

for friends and neighbors to meet for a cup of coffee. Enjoy live weekly<br />

entertainment, a children’s music circle from 9-11 a.m. located in front<br />

of the playground, and a twice-a-month Chef Showcase where a local celebrity<br />

chef shops for the freshest market ingredients and demonstrates<br />

how to create a delicious farmers market dish that you can recreate at<br />

home, sampling is required.<br />

The GreenMarket hosts over 65 of South Florida’s premiere farmers<br />

and culinary artists specializing in local farm-fresh vegetables, herbs,<br />

fruit, citrus, seafood, cheese, eggs, bone broth, olive oil, flowers, orchids,<br />

jams, baked goods, and many other hand-crafted, small-batch gourmet<br />

delights including many vegan, sugar-free, and organic options. Each<br />

vendor is a small business, meaning every dollar spent at the Green-<br />

Market goes to support the individual merchant. Shopping local ensures<br />

that the money you spend stays local and guarantees you are buying<br />

fresh, high-quality products while strengthening our community.<br />

Shopping at the GreenMarket is an international culinary experience<br />

for your taste buds. Enjoy an al fresco lunch in the park feasting<br />

on Peruvian empanadas, tamales, perogies, Cuban sandwiches, seafood<br />

or vegan paella, ceviche, Chinese delicacies, Indian cuisine, Italian ices,<br />

Nigerian Akara fritters, Chesapeake Bay shrimp salad, crab cakes, and<br />

clam chowder.<br />

The Market is also a throwback to a time when open-air markets<br />

and sharing food experiences with the butcher or shop keeper was<br />

a common denominator in everyone’s life. The Market is where you<br />

can meet the people who make and produce your food and establish<br />

a relationship with them. “There are no strangers at the GreenMarket,<br />

just friends you haven’t met yet” says Lori Nolan, the GreenMarket<br />

Manager. Support local food and head down to the Delray Beach<br />

GreenMarket. It is sure to be a feast for your eyes and ears with flavors<br />

to delight every palate.<br />

Don’t leave Fido at home! The Market is vendor-pet friendly too. Wet<br />

Nose Pantry offers human-grade food for dogs that can be delivered right<br />

to your door each week and Dog Deli Treats offers air-dried, minimally<br />

processed, all-natural dog treats including chicken, turkey, rabbit, beef,<br />

and more. Be sure to stop by for a sample. You’ll find Dezzy’s Second<br />

Chance Rescue and Tri-County Humane at the Market featuring dogs<br />

looking for their fur-ever homes. Follow @delraygreenmarketdogs on Instragram,<br />

a page dedicated to the fur-friends who visit the GreenMarket.<br />

Don’t worry about parking, there’s plenty of it until 4pm in the City<br />

parking garage adjacent to the Market.<br />

FEINSTEIN DERMATOLOGY & COSMETIC SURGery<br />

Concierge Care<br />

Without The Fare<br />

By Diane Feen | photos by melissa korman<br />

Dr. Brian Feinstein has created a dermatology practice<br />

that encompasses the entire spectrum of care – from<br />

medical dermatology to cosmetic treatments.<br />

Dr. Brian Feinstein, D.O., FAAD, Olivia Smith, pa-C, Nathalie Allison-Fecteau, pa-C<br />

Dr. Feinstein is double Board-Certified in Dermatology and<br />

Family Medicine. He is also a Fellowship Trained Mohs Surgeon<br />

and takes pride in letting his patients know that their<br />

health is of paramount importance to him.<br />

“We are committed to providing a level of service rarely found<br />

outside the world of concierge medical practices. We have a commitment<br />

to excellence in medical care by providing a profound level<br />

of customer service.”<br />

Dr. Feinstein’s office is always accommodating patients – often<br />

on their own terms. They offer same day appointments, evening appointments<br />

and courtesy transportation when necessary.<br />

They specialize in all areas of general dermatology: MOHS micrographic<br />

surgery, skin cancer and cutaneous surgery. Also, hair loss,<br />

ear lobe repair, keloid scar treatment, eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis,<br />

acne and melasma.<br />

Dr. Feinstein also performs full face Erbium skin resurfacing with<br />

the Sciton Laser or a lighter laser peel with less down time, as well<br />

as BBL treatments to erase brown spots.<br />

64 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

Skin cancer is the most common form of cancer in the United<br />

States. According to the Florida Department of Health, Palm Beach<br />

County has the highest incidence of melanoma in the state of<br />

Florida. However, all skin cancers are serious and should receive<br />

prompt medical attention.<br />

Feinstein Dermatology is also one of the few medical offices in<br />

the area that offers SRT Radiation Therapy, which is a safe and highly<br />

effective non-surgical treatment for non-melanoma skin cancers.<br />

It effectively destroys malignant non-melanoma skin cancer cells<br />

with no pain or unsightly scars.<br />

Dr. Feinstein also offers a full array of cosmetic services to erase<br />

lines, wrinkles and a double chin to make you look and feel young<br />

and vibrant. He is a Diamond Level Injector with Allergan products,<br />

which includes Botox, Juvederm and Kybella.<br />

Having Allergan Diamond status puts Dr. Feinstein in the top 2%<br />

of physicians nationwide for the volume of patients injected with<br />

Botox® and fillers. “Achieving this status and level of recognition is<br />

a direct result of our dedication to patient care and superior patient<br />

results. We are proud to have been awarded this recognition and<br />

look forward to providing the type of care and service our patients<br />

can rely on,” said Dr. Feinstein.<br />

Another effective treatment to combat the effects of aging is<br />

SkinTyte. “If you’re looking for a non-surgical, quick fix to turn back<br />

the hands of time, SkinTyte may be your answer. We use Sciton’s<br />

COPYRIGHTED<br />

Patient preparing for Photodynamic Therapy


Feinstein team<br />

BBL pulsed light technology to firm, tighten and lift your skin for<br />

a more youthful appearance,” said Dr. Feinstein. “SkinTyte can be<br />

used on any part of your body that you would like to tighten up<br />

– from your face to your legs, with NO downtime. Patients are extremely<br />

satisfied after this treatment, and it is the most popular<br />

non-surgical treatment we offer.”<br />

According to the doctor, many of these cosmetic treatments<br />

have dramatic effects with low cost and little down time. They<br />

accommodate patients with early morning or late afternoon<br />

appointments and are always patient-centric when it comes<br />

to your needs. If patient results are any indication of Feinstein<br />

Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery expertise, the results are quite<br />

impressive.<br />

“I’ve always had a positive experience here! Everyone that works<br />

there is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and they take<br />

their time answering all my questions. I would recommend Dr.<br />

Feinstein’s office to all my family and friends!” said Katie.<br />

Ian agrees. “On a scale from 1 to 10, I would rate Feinstein Dermatology<br />

at a 10. They offer top notch service and facility, even the<br />

music was soothing.”<br />

They also have a licensed aesthetician (Abigail), who is a licensed<br />

clinical and medical electrologist, licensed laser hair professional,<br />

certified acne specialist and educator. She owned a successful skincare<br />

boutique in Bedford, New York that received “the best” of<br />

Westchester awards. She was an aesthetician to Catherine Zeta-<br />

Jones and other celebrities and models.<br />

Abigail performs everything from SkinTyte and BBL treatments to<br />

custom Hydrafacials, laser hair removal, medical grade chemical peels<br />

and dermaplane. Also, microcurrent, Rezenerate Facials, microneedling,<br />

acne treatments, Fusion Microchannel treatments and RF tightening.<br />

Feinstein Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery is always adding<br />

new state-of-the-art treatments to make you look and feel thinner<br />

and younger.<br />

They take excellent care of their patients and consider everyone<br />

to be part of their extended family. Monthly Lunch and Learn sessions<br />

educate guests about special treatments, new technology<br />

and important skin topics. Their warm and caring staff provides<br />

patients with refreshments - when they come for surgery.<br />

Dr. Feinstein is dedicated to the art of Concierge Dermatology without<br />

having to pay a membership fee. As he likes to say: “Expect more.”<br />

And patients do. “The entire staff is very professional, knowledgeable<br />

and caring. This is very rare in this day and age. The staff<br />

is also very efficient,” said Norbert W.<br />

Before you leave the Feinstein Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery<br />

office you can purchase products with the latest advancements to<br />

keep you looking younger and refreshed.<br />

They also have an online store linked to their website that features<br />

monthly specials, a full line of products for all skin types and<br />

needs, sunscreens (a must for the skin) and gift cards.<br />

Feinstein Dermatology can be found on Facebook and Instagram,<br />

so follow them to learn fun skin facts, watch videos of treatments<br />

and have access to flash specials.<br />

They currently have a FEBRUARY SPECIAL: Buy a syringe of Juvederm<br />

Ultra or Volbella and get a FREE Hydrafacial, or a $150 of<br />

skin care products.<br />

Feinstein Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery is well known for their<br />

caring and professional treatment of patients. They invite you to<br />

come in or call the office to discuss what procedure is best for you.<br />

As patient Dan says, “This office is the Gold Standard.”<br />

Kahn’s of Orchard Street<br />

The Right Fit for Every Body<br />

BY Nicol Jenkins | photos by melissa korman<br />

In 1991, Jeff and Lynn Kahn brought decades of fashion experience<br />

from New York to South Florida when they opened Kahn’s of<br />

Orchard Street, a unique lingerie and swimsuit specialty store.<br />

Lynn and her husband Jeff Kahn started the family business<br />

over 30 years ago. They run the Delray Beach specialty<br />

store with help from their daughter Arielle and a dedicated<br />

and knowledgeable staff. As you enter the store, you are immediately<br />

greeted by their friendly and caring staff. That is what makes<br />

Kahn’s a “unique” shopping experience.<br />

This specialty store features everyday basics to luxury bras,<br />

swimwear, and ready to wear collections from top brands in the<br />

industry. With stores moving away from customer service, it is refreshing<br />

to see that Kahn’s is service-oriented. With more than 30<br />

years in the industry, they are seasoned at recommending the right<br />

brands, styles and looks based on every woman’s unique shape and<br />

size. Their vision is to help women feel confident, comfortable and<br />

beautiful from the inside out…starting at their foundations.<br />

Lynn comments, “Most of our customers have an idea of what<br />

they are looking for but often struggle finding the right fit or style to<br />

match their body type. We know that not all women or manufacturers<br />

are created equal but because of our extensive assortment and<br />

expertise, there is usually something for everyone who shops with<br />

us. We take the time to carefully select choices for each and every<br />

customer, because we understand the importance of getting it right!”<br />

The correct bra can mean a world of difference in how you feel in<br />

66 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

your own skin. Kahn’s carries all styles, from wireless, molded, underwire,<br />

sport, and strapless, along with standard and band sizes<br />

ranging between 32 to 48 and cup sizes ranging between B and I.<br />

Collections from Wacoal, Chantelle, Anita Active, Rosa Faia, and Lunaire,<br />

as well as many others, are regularly available. There are so<br />

many to choose from but not all bras are created equal.<br />

“If you’re looking for that one on one service,” adds Arielle…<br />

”you’ve come to the right place!”<br />

Kahn’s selection also includes a wide variety of underwear, shapewear,<br />

loungewear, sleepwear, and lingerie, including signature<br />

brands such as Eileen West, Hanky Panky, Natori, Carole Hochman,<br />

Ellen Tracy, Verena, Miss Elaine, Donna Karan, and many more.<br />

Their swimwear department boasts many brands including<br />

Gottex, MiracleSuit, MagicSuit, Sunflair, Longitude and Reebok to<br />

name a few. There are many styles to choose from whether you are<br />

looking for a one piece suit, separate tops and bottoms, or a skirted<br />

swimsuit…you can find it at Kahn’s. Don’t forget to include a coverup,<br />

resort outfit, loungewear piece, beach sandals, and beach bag<br />

for the pool, cruise, or destination vacation.<br />

Lastly, be sure not to miss their sportswear department featuring<br />

trendy brands including Lyssè, Bali, Impulse and Klaveli.<br />

“Retail has been in our blood,” states Jeff Kahn…”This is who we are.”<br />

COPYRIGHTED


Their customers praise the owners and staff for assisting<br />

them and making their shopping experience a memorable one.<br />

“Amazing Service. These people know how to fit bras, and<br />

bathing suits,” said Gail.<br />

“Great store! I live in New York and always shop here when<br />

in Florida,” said Lisa C.<br />

“Great stuff- bathing suits, bras, and cute tops!” exclaimed<br />

Betty Ann.<br />

“Great store for the well-endowed. They have good products.<br />

Stock up every time I go,” added Betsy K.<br />

There is no need to schedule an appointment! Stop in to<br />

Kahn’s anytime Monday thru Saturday from 10am to 5pm for<br />

a personalized professional fit, and leave looking and feeling<br />

fabulous! The Kahn’s team will be happy to assist you!<br />

SEASIDE BUILDERS<br />

Creating Miracles<br />

From The Ground Up<br />

By diane feen | photos by melissa korman<br />

If the name Seaside Builders<br />

is on a project you know the<br />

sky is the limit (literally).<br />

The luxury custom home builder – that takes style into their<br />

lexicon at first glance – knows how to wow home buyers.<br />

Their commitment to excellence is unparalleled and their<br />

attention to detail is what makes a dwelling more of a dreamscape<br />

than merely a home.<br />

That is what they have done with their latest project – Cove 4.<br />

The intracoastal waterway sets the stage for grace and grandeur in<br />

these single-story condos on Venetian Drive in Delray Beach.<br />

Though there are four units total, two are already sold. At prices<br />

of upwards of $3.5 million it’s a testament to builders Tom Laudani<br />

and Patrick Whyte’s building prowess, experience and white glove<br />

construction expertise.<br />

68 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

The 3,500-square-foot condo-homes include a private outdoor<br />

cabana, swimming pool, 45-foot boat dock, private balconies and<br />

rooftop decks that are just feet from the intracoastal.<br />

But that’s only part of the allure. There are floor-to- ceiling windows<br />

that make life a little brighter and transparent (in a good<br />

way). What you get are panoramic views of Mother Nature’s most<br />

coveted island assets.<br />

Many people dream about this landscape, but few get to actually<br />

live this exclusive resort lifestyle on a daily basis.<br />

You get to wake up to the glory of a Florida sunrise that will<br />

energize your highest aspirations. The modern details and architecture<br />

of these “city” condo homes are built for privacy and<br />

luxury living.<br />

But the best part is that you are moments from the action of <strong>Atlantic</strong><br />

<strong>Ave</strong>nue and a short walk from the serenity of the seaside.<br />

You can entertain or enjoy solitude on your private rooftop terrace<br />

with summer kitchen. There is private elevator access from<br />

the ground floor and a secured parking garage.<br />

The spacious layout includes three bedrooms and three and a-<br />

half baths dazzled by daylight with a natural light-filled floorplan.<br />

COPYRIGHTED


The great room opens up to an expansive waterfront terrace with<br />

balcony access from each room.<br />

“Our goal and focus here is to create stylish comfort in a great<br />

room that combines the living and dining areas. With a chef’s<br />

kitchen and open floor plan you can experience the joy of optimal<br />

space,” said Laudani.<br />

The modern details and architecture of these four condo homes<br />

is the genius of local renowned architect Richard Jones.<br />

Jones is a master at creating artful elements that uplift and<br />

transport you to a heavenly existence amidst a modern contemporary<br />

backdrop.<br />

The striking design elements by Jones are unparalleled in their<br />

ability to provide privacy yet offer you an open view of the majestic<br />

waterway. Where else can you live so splendidly without the hassle<br />

and responsibility of a private home?<br />

The exclusivity here is that the terrace and condo home is situated<br />

near one of the most luxurious and enviable beach communities<br />

in US. “This is a continuation of Seaside Builders progressive designs<br />

on the barrier island in Delray. Its one-of-a kind site is located<br />

on the largest water basin east of the Intracoastal,” adds Laudani.<br />

Cove 4 is in one of the most desirable locations, just blocks from<br />

the <strong>Atlantic</strong> Ocean and the Seagate Beach Club. It’s also a short<br />

stroll to <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>nue, where the nightlife, dining and culture<br />

provide a colorful yet tropical mixture of pleasures.<br />

Seaside Builders also developed the Marina Town Home project,<br />

which consists of 10 contemporary townhomes at the Seagate Yacht<br />

Club Marina. The townhomes are a testament to the grandeur and<br />

glass that encases and embraces owners with elegance and luxury.<br />

If you drive around town there are always signature Seaside<br />

Builders’ homes in strategic places in Delray Beach and Gulfstream.<br />

It’s not happenstance that they have staked their claim in<br />

the most vibrant, yet coveted land that surrounds the sea-soaked<br />

culture of South Florida.<br />

Those who have purchased homes from Laudani and Whyte are<br />

thrilled with the finished products. “We are living in our dream<br />

home. We had a long list of requirements and every one of them<br />

was fulfilled. The entire Seaside team was professional and accommodating.<br />

Seaside delivered on every promise and everything<br />

turned out perfectly. Beautiful, wonderful and spectacular!” said<br />

clients Gayle and Guy Tudisco.<br />

Broker Associate for Premier Estate Properties, Pascal Liguori,<br />

who often works with Seaside has this to say: “One of Tom’s greatest<br />

assets is his ability to listen and communicate with a level of<br />

respect and professionalism unequaled in the industry. His attention<br />

to minor details makes him a favorite for all clients I refer to<br />

him. His impeccable reputation and integrity are the hallmark of<br />

his successful career.”<br />

Their Nautica townhome project - located on the Barrier Island,<br />

was also recently completed. There are still two 4,000-squarefoot<br />

units available for $2.9 million each.<br />

Whyte also has a distinguished background in construction. He<br />

and Laudani combine their talent into what has become a thriving<br />

general contracting company.<br />

With an emphasis on creating lifestyles rather than simply<br />

building homes, Seaside’s commitment to quality, service, and<br />

value results in spectacular homes where memories are made,<br />

and love abounds.<br />

BEACHCOMBER ART<br />

A Museum of Creativity<br />

In a City of Sand<br />

By diane feen | photos by melissa korman<br />

Debbie Brookes can make something out of nothing. The<br />

designer-retail shop owner has a long history of dazzling shoppers<br />

with embellished adornment of the most mundane items.<br />

The exciting part is that when Brookes gets done decorating<br />

them, they are anything but mundane. They sparkle with<br />

possibilities much like the things you see in museum gift<br />

shops – or in museums themselves.<br />

The reason is that Brookes sees endless possibilities in each<br />

piece she holds. Whether a lamp, a mirror, mounted fish, mermaid<br />

or guitar, Brookes sees what could be - not what is.<br />

She painted a large square mirror red and adorned it with all<br />

size, texture and style of seashells. If a mermaid were to come<br />

ashore, she would surely pronounce Beachcomber Art and Brookes<br />

70 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

the Goddess of the Sea. Luckily for us Brookes is landlocked.<br />

But there is something mystical about her talent and ability to shine<br />

a light on anything – antique or modern – and make it come alive with<br />

brilliance. A rocking horse in the center of the store is embellished with<br />

white seashells, decorative saddle in turquoise, brown and orange seashells,<br />

complimented by realistically adorned eyes, tail and face.<br />

Rarely do you see such an amalgam of beauty and inspiration in one<br />

place. But then Brookes is one of the wonders of the creative world.<br />

“In my career as a hairdresser, florist, and artist I have learned<br />

that it’s all about balance. There’s such a thing as positive and negative<br />

space and balancing the right colors. It’s about taking things<br />

away and leaving others behind,” said the Seashell Goddess.<br />

Her shop is so extraordinary that people walking by are drawn<br />

inside by the luster of its offerings. Mark Walhberg’s wife Rhea<br />

walked by one day and purchased seashell decorated candlesticks.<br />

“I have customers from all over the world. People bring things to<br />

my shop all the time and want me to decorate and embellish it. I do<br />

shell adorned cremation urns and boxes, medicine cabinets, bathroom<br />

mirrors, chandeliers, lamps and anything you can imagine.”<br />

She is right, some of the things Brookes creates are hard to imagine<br />

but amazing to behold. Each is unique and stands alone on its<br />

own invisible pedestal. The pink and white seashell adorned guitar<br />

hanging from the ceiling is clearly museum quality. The shells vary<br />

in size giving the guitar a vivid texture and classical grace.<br />

Nearby is a metal mermaid that stands her ground and acts as<br />

a tray. Her skirt is made of seashells and she is a caricature of a<br />

seafaring gal with orange seashell top and colorful shell peplum.<br />

COPYRIGHTED


A tan lamp nearby is a real treasure trove of goodies. Decorated<br />

with small neutral seashells around its middle, it has large<br />

seashells at the base that are visually stunning. Nearby is an antique<br />

Pagoda chandelier with shells and sea glass in light green<br />

with pink rosebuds.<br />

In the back of the store is the clothing boutique with novelty<br />

beach-worthy outfits and sportswear. If you act quickly you can<br />

get flowing skirts, printed tunics and fun casual dresses at 40%<br />

off. There are Judy P tops in all colors, as well as resort wear<br />

that flows and flutters when you walk. Come see these ethereal<br />

Goddess items with decorative detail and casual sophistication<br />

while they’re on sale.<br />

On the front wall of the shop is a taxidermy mounted Shark<br />

in full regale with seashells of all configurations and sheen.<br />

The gills are made of large seashells and each part of its anatomy<br />

has a coordinating seashell counterpart textured to stand<br />

out from its core.<br />

Brookes has always enjoyed bedazzling her prey so it’s only<br />

natural she would carry some bling. She has a collection of<br />

novelty rings that will dazzle you and one-of-a-kind jewelry<br />

by Chris Bales. Bales uses sterling silver and semi-precious<br />

stones to create works of art to be worn.<br />

There are also colorful peacocks and flamingos decorated<br />

with clear glass and seashells. And a wooden mermaid in yellow<br />

and green stands nearby with a tray.<br />

If you want to get a jump on the holidays for next year,<br />

Brookes has some beautiful blue clear glass and shell adorned<br />

Menorahs on sale. These sacred Hanukah candle holders are<br />

rarely seen with this style and creativity.<br />

Though Beachcomber Art is hidden from view on Federal<br />

Highway, it continues to be a miracle off main street in the eyes<br />

of everyone who sees it. Come visit and take home a piece of<br />

art at a fraction of the price it might sell for at a museum.<br />

Beauty is as beauty does – support our local artists.<br />

They also sell Dermologica’s high performance Biolumin-C Serum<br />

with vitamin C and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5. Retreat Director Bailey<br />

has seen the benefits of this amazing facial serum.<br />

“I have been using Biolumin-C serum for a year and I am getting<br />

amazing results. It brightens dark circles, sunspots and reduces<br />

fine lines and wrinkles.”<br />

If you are ready for a serene state of calm, check out their Trigger<br />

Point Massage. It helps release constricted muscle areas to relieve<br />

pain and help increase mobility.<br />

Physician, CST has worked miracles for many people.<br />

One of their newest massages is a Hemp-Infused Massage. It<br />

helps with pain management, anxiety and inflammation. Hemp oil<br />

is a pain reliever and anti-inflammatory agent used to relax muscles<br />

and tissues.<br />

The Hemp-Infused Massage adds comfort and a sense of wellbeing.<br />

The purpose is also to leave you feeling balanced, calm<br />

and revived.<br />

Massage Heights Delray’s goal is to help everyone feel their best<br />

and leave feeling refreshed and relaxed. Owner Sandra McNiven<br />

experienced the benefits of massage firsthand. The family law lawyer<br />

found that regular massage relieved her stress. “My job was so<br />

stressful. I found that going to a spa regularly helped me relax, clear<br />

my head and reduce my stress level.”<br />

That was the reason she opened Massage Heights Delray Place.<br />

Since opening they have added many healing modalities and products<br />

to take home to create your own spa at home.<br />

One of their newest treatments is Dry Brushing. This acts as exfoliation<br />

and massage for a smooth brighter appearance. The firm<br />

bristles and slow movements help eliminate toxins from your body<br />

and create help you feel revitalized and energetic.<br />

Massage Heights Delray’s massages also help relieve aches and<br />

pains and release toxins. To help offset the pesky stress of your day<br />

(or week) try Cupping Therapy. This treatment uses silicone cups<br />

for suction to assist circulation and add fluid muscle movement.<br />

The pulling action also helps promote healing and improve flexibility,<br />

range of motion, high blood pressure and more. Cupping is<br />

also used to relieve back and neck pain, stiff muscles, anxiety, fatigue,<br />

migraines and rheumatism.<br />

for Brides. Called “Bridal Boot Camp,” it starts three months<br />

before the wedding and includes one facial every month.<br />

said Bailey.<br />

Massage Heights Delray delights in hosting bridal parties.<br />

Here We GROW Again…<br />

Back with All Dry USA and no, we are not just<br />

talking about MOLD GroWTH this time.<br />

By An All Dry USA Corporate Representative | photos courtesy of all dry usa<br />

Company Growth:<br />

With locations across the map, All Dry USA is ranked as one of<br />

the largest women founded and private owned restoration companies.<br />

With their continued success, it comes as no surprise that<br />

they outgrew their former headquarters. The company’s recent<br />

real estate acquisition, a 4-acre waterfront campus, located at 2600<br />

Quantum Blvd in Boynton Beach is the new location of the All Dry<br />

USA’s headquarters.<br />

Working in building A is All Dry USA’s corporate field and production<br />

staff. Also found in this building are displays of wood flooring,<br />

tiles, cabinetry, as well as, concrete and metal roof samples.<br />

Their design team assists with material selection and creates 4-D<br />

renderings so customers can truly visualize their future beautiful<br />

kitchen, bathroom or home addition. Call them for a consultation if<br />

you are planning a home remodel.<br />

In building B, a two-story glass and steel building, you will find<br />

the company’s executives and corporate office staff. Everyone<br />

working on this campus supports all of All Dry USA’s locations for:<br />

call intake, customer service, job coordinating, insurance estimating<br />

and billing, accounting, human resources, purchasing, and legal<br />

76 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

matters. Unique to building B is a 2,000 square foot banquet hall<br />

with a catering kitchen. In addition to the main event space, there<br />

are multiple meeting rooms, all with water views. The company<br />

is utilizing the space to host seminars and educational courses.<br />

Aside from industry related certification courses in restoration and<br />

construction, they offer continuing education courses to property<br />

managers, insurance adjusters, insurance agents and realtors. If<br />

you have an educational seminar or course that you are interested<br />

in hosting at All Dry USA’s waterfront campus, please contact Nicole<br />

at NicoleS@alldryusa.com.<br />

Mold Growth:<br />

Do you know what is more expensive than hiring a professional?<br />

Hiring an amateur. It is just not worth it! All Dry USA is your local,<br />

licensed, longstanding, restoration and construction company.<br />

Florida has strict licensing laws pertaining to contracting and<br />

mold removal, and rightfully so. Mold removal must be done by a<br />

licensed mold remediator or you risk spreading mold spores into<br />

the air, contaminating more of the property, and ultimately affecting<br />

your health.


Mold Facts and Tips:<br />

• For mold to grow, it needs water, oxygen and a host (such as<br />

drywall).<br />

• Dark, moist or humid areas within homes are prime areas<br />

where mold breeds.<br />

• Check your home for signs of water damage and excess moisture.<br />

• When water gets into porous surfaces (drywall, grout, wood,<br />

carpet, & laminate), the moisture becomes trapped and fuels<br />

mold growth.<br />

• Mold spreads very quickly (24-48 hours) and continues to<br />

breed, compromising the well-being of the property until it is physically<br />

removed.<br />

• You CAN NOT kill mold; you MUST remove it!<br />

• Mold hides in air particles and attaches itself behind and underneath<br />

surfaces. It is not what you see, it is what you don’t see<br />

that is the most concerning!<br />

• Increased humidity makes mold, and the spreading of its spores<br />

a big concern.<br />

• Air conditioners are natural dehumidifiers. Keep yours at 77<br />

degrees or lower.<br />

• There are many health risks that are affiliated with mold.<br />

• A list of mold symptoms reported to the CDC include:<br />

• Sinus infections, throat irritation, coughing or wheezing, eye<br />

and skin irritation, asthma, respiratory illness, anxiety, memory<br />

loss, lethargy, and serious mold toxicity.<br />

Mold prevention starts with fighting moisture. When you find a<br />

leak, or water damage in your home, address it immediately. Dry<br />

the wet areas as much as possible and increase ventilation to the<br />

area. The only way to truly tell if you have dried the area completely<br />

is with a moisture meter. Call All Dry USA for your free moisture<br />

inspection after a leak or water damage event, before you have a<br />

mold concern.<br />

Community Growth:<br />

All Dry USA prides itself in giving back to all the communities<br />

where they have company locations. In August, they participated<br />

(across 4 states) in National Night Out, supporting local police departments.<br />

The company continues to have close ties in the veteran<br />

community and assists veteran homeowners in need of their services,<br />

often free of charge.<br />

Locally, the company and its staff are known for volunteering<br />

and fundraising for organizations in need (sometimes utilizing<br />

their Dunk Tank). Last Spring the staff participated in Love Delray,<br />

revamping the Delray Beach Children’s Garden. During the holiday<br />

season they contributed to Floor & Decor’s Toy Drive. Recently,<br />

All Dry USA sponsored a team for the East Boynton Beach Little<br />

League. Coming up in April is The Boynton Beach First Responders<br />

Luncheon where All Dry USA has sponsored and is proudly presenting<br />

the Firefighter of the Year Award.<br />

At their waterfront campus they host the Women’s Business<br />

Council meetings. The meetings are held on the 4th Friday of each<br />

month, with breakfast provided by All Dry USA. If you are interested<br />

in attending, please contact Jonathan Porges, Marketing Executive<br />

of the Boynton Beach, Boca Chamber. They have also collaborated<br />

with The Ferrari Club of America’s Palm Beach Chapter<br />

to have exotic car events on their beautiful property.<br />

A closing note from Elissa Weiser-McVeigh, Creative Director at<br />

All Dry USA:<br />

“To our current, past and future customers, we thank you for<br />

contributing to our growth by putting your trust in All Dry USA.<br />

To our neighbors, we invite you to our headquarters to attend a<br />

seminar on the importance of restoration, hurricane preparedness,<br />

signs of water damage, mold, fire cleanup and prevention. To all,<br />

we encourage you to make the commitment to service your community<br />

when and however you can. Lastly, we trust you understand<br />

the importance of supporting local businesses and hiring licensed<br />

professionals.”<br />

HEARING PARTNERS OF SOUTH FLORIDA<br />

Improving Lives<br />

One At A Time<br />

By diane feen | photos by melissa korman<br />

When you think of hearing aids and the ramifications of not getting<br />

information to your brain, it’s often met with shock. Most people<br />

don’t realize the connection between hearing and the brain.<br />

Dr. Nimet A. Adam<br />

Some people think that hearing problems – or balance issues –are<br />

part of aging.<br />

That is far from the truth. Just ask Dr. Nimet A. Adam a Board-Certified<br />

Clinical Audiologist and President of Hearing Partners of South Florida.<br />

Dr. Adam sees all age patients with vertigo, tinnitus, balance issues, dizziness<br />

and hearing loss. “I’m seeing a higher incidence of people falling due<br />

to vertigo, dizziness and other medical conditions. A car accident, a jolt to<br />

the head or a fall can cause crystals in the ear to dislodge and cause dizziness,”<br />

said the widely acclaimed audiologist, who after 20 years in practice<br />

has spread her wings to include three thriving South Florida offices.<br />

There’s a reason for Dr. Adam’s ascent to the top of the audiology<br />

pyramid. She is caring, highly educated in all modalities of hearing<br />

conditions, and has state-of-the-art devices to help you regain<br />

hearing and balance to its rightful place.<br />

What people may not know is that hearing loss can result in a higher incidence<br />

of falling. According to Dr. Adam when you can’t hear you are more<br />

prone to missing clues in the environment or hearing signals from outside.<br />

The same goes for memory. More people than ever complain they<br />

can’t remember things the way they used to. Some toss this unnerving<br />

symptom off to old age or not enough crossword puzzle time. But Dr.<br />

Adam has a logical answer to this vexing query.<br />

“I tell my patients you can’t remember something someone tells<br />

you if you can’t store it in your memory. You can’t store it because “You<br />

never heard it!”<br />

The miracle, according to Dr. Adam, is that when treated properly<br />

with hearing aids the brain goes back to its higher functioning. “You can<br />

retrain the brain. Untreated hearing loss affects the brain adversely, but<br />

when you treat the hearing loss it frees up the brain to do other cognitive<br />

processing, like memory.”<br />

That registers as an ‘aha’ moment! It’s a revelatory discovery to find<br />

out that hearing loss can actually affect the quality of your life.<br />

“Hearing loss is a quality of life issue. It’s not a luxury, it’s a necessity.<br />

It can cause social isolation, brain fog, and is linked to dementia. When<br />

we improve someone’s hearing they can enjoy going to restaurants,<br />

theater, lectures and continue to be active.”<br />

But the proverbial question is – who wants to wear a device in their<br />

ear that potentially makes them look disabled or elderly?<br />

A good question – and one that Dr, Adam and her colleagues have<br />

dealt with for years. The good news is that there are many invisible<br />

hearing devices such as LYRIC. They are left in the ear canal for<br />

a few months and can be worn while playing sports, showering and<br />

sleeping. The best part is there are no batteries to change.<br />

Another chronic life altering condition that Hearing Partners treats<br />

is Tinnitus. For those who hear continuous buzzing or ringing it can be<br />

life altering – and not in a good way.<br />

The Hearing Partners tinnitus protocol is based on a few treatments:<br />

Sound Therapy, Hearing Aids, Masking devices and Retraining Therapy.<br />

Often times tinnitus sufferers don’t realize they also have a hearing<br />

loss. When you wear a hearing aid you amplify the surroundings this<br />

can reduce or often eliminate the perception of tinnitus.<br />

For those with severe hearing loss there is an option – Cochlear<br />

Implants.<br />

This option can be life altering. “We work with University of Miami<br />

and identify candidates for Cochlear Implants. We do the testing to see<br />

who would benefit, set up a meeting with a world-renowned surgeon<br />

and help decide which implant will work best.”<br />

Hearing Partners also does all the follow-up visits for activation of<br />

the device, programming and support. “I had a patient here today in<br />

tears because she had never heard a TV or a phone ring.”<br />

Hearing Partners has built up a reputation for their integrity and intelligence,<br />

prompting referrals from patients and doctors. “They trust<br />

us and know that we do accurate testing and excellent follow-up care.”<br />

Dr. Adam’s history is a big part of her audiological journey. “I was a<br />

refugee from Uganda, and I decided early on that I wanted to give back<br />

to make people’s lives better.”<br />

Dr. Adam helped to create a humanitarian organization that brings<br />

hearing devices and treatment to underprivileged countries (hearingthecall.org).<br />

She travels the globe on mission trips to help those with<br />

hearing loss.<br />

Part of our global non-profit humanitarian work in Zambia<br />

“I get to change lives immediately. We can identify the hearing loss<br />

and treat someone the same day.”<br />

They sure do. Their testimonial page is filled with glowing reviews,<br />

and patients tout their selfless care and life-altering treatments.<br />

By diane feen | photos by melissa korman<br />

We all know renovating, remodeling and redecorating a home or<br />

their reputation on - A store with everything you will need. A onestop<br />

need help with installation, they have the best installers,” said Nicole.<br />

All of their installers are licensed, insured and bonded. All you do<br />

is pick out what you like, and they will have it installed for you. It’s<br />

that simple,” said Ray, a 32-year veteran in the flooring business.<br />

of the latest state-of-the-art flooring, wall décor and home<br />

The Price Flooring team<br />

design products. Their new floorplan is much more open and allows<br />

for greater viewing of the newest carpets (including updated<br />

textured designs), tiles (they have a tile wall that easily slides for<br />

viewing), wood, vinyl, accent walls and more.<br />

One thing that hasn’t changed is that you can chose your own<br />

style of décor – from contemporary to traditional - and everything<br />

in between.<br />

That includes porcelain, that is available in both square and oblong<br />

planks in varying sizes, textures and colors. They also have<br />

polished and matte tiles available in large format sizes that range<br />

from the very large (48” square) down to smaller tiles to fit everyone’s<br />

needs. There are square tiles, waterproof hardwood flooring<br />

this device an entire back or legs can be treated in 15 minutes.<br />

They are also one of the first practices in Florida offering<br />

Cooltone, a revolutionary body contouring device made by the<br />

same company as Coolsculpting which offers immediate, painless,<br />

long-lasting muscle definition for the abs, arms and glutes. Now in<br />

combination with Coolsculpting for fat removal, Exilis Ultra 360 for<br />

skin tightening and Cooltone for muscle contouring, Delray Dermatology<br />

can offer the complete non-invasive body sculpting package.<br />

Their latest laser treatment is the Fractional CO2 laser, the most<br />

advanced technology to help with deeper wrinkles, fine lines, sun<br />

damage, and acne scars. With downtime of only 5-7 days, this treatment<br />

can reverse the clock 10-20 years.<br />

the skin in combination with microneedling to stimulate collagen.<br />

For flawless and youthful looking skin, Clear and Brilliant is still<br />

the most loved laser treatment on the market and most popular in<br />

the practice. Made by the same company that makes Fraxel, it helps<br />

resurface the skin with no downtime in just four treatments. It gives<br />

SEED Workspace delray<br />

Planting The Seeds<br />

of Productivity<br />

By diane feen | photos by melissa korman<br />

Do you dream of an upbeat workspace that is far<br />

from the corporate world yet has some of the key<br />

elements that account for its Fortune 500 status?<br />

Terry Marks, President of Seed Delray<br />

Well, look no more. You can plant your success as you would<br />

a seed, so to speak. This new co-work environment is<br />

appropriately called Seed and is located at the West end<br />

of the new shopping plaza anchored by Whole Foods Market on<br />

Linton Boulevard.<br />

The concept of a co-working space is a relatively new one, yet the<br />

need for it has been brewing for some time. “Seed Delray is filling<br />

a huge void for single entrepreneurs (or solopreneurs) through a<br />

premium balanced workplace. It fosters an excellent combination<br />

of collaboration with extended networking, innovation and a<br />

balanced physical layout,” said Terry Marks.<br />

Marks was the brainchild behind this 6,000-square-foot<br />

workspace divided into different work areas to meet the needs of<br />

varying business models.<br />

But the underlying genius is the energetic flow that carries on<br />

throughout the second-floor space. There are large circular windows<br />

84 | <strong>February</strong> <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

that cast a bright natural light, ergonomic modern furnishings and<br />

rental flexibility to meet any size business or freelancer.<br />

If you want to rent a desk for a few hours, you’re in luck. They<br />

have what is known as a “Hotdesk” for daily, weekly or monthly<br />

use. You get all the amenities that are commonplace in corporate<br />

offices without the staid work environment. You get collaborative<br />

capabilities, fast Wi-Fi, printer-scanner, spacious kitchen,<br />

conference room use, mailboxes and on-site parking.<br />

If you would like a more permanent workspace, you can opt for<br />

one of their “Dedicated Desks.” The desks are dispersed among<br />

assorted office configurations within a harmonious artful design<br />

that fosters a sense of community and productivity.<br />

“We are leading the way for the quintessential upbeat office<br />

lifestyle for the solo entrepreneur. Our office design, the color<br />

schemes, natural light and modular furniture capabilities are the<br />

perfect backdrop for working and networking,” added Marks.<br />

He has a point. Studies do show that when you feel good you do<br />

good. And when you are ensconced in an upbeat environment you<br />

are more productive, especially when your work is mixed with a bit<br />

of socializing and networking.<br />

COPYRIGHTED<br />

Hot Desks/Co-Working Desks


Larger Seed space with 33 Dedicated Desks and 4 private offices<br />

For a more spacious – and larger group – there are Private<br />

Offices available. They are equipped with modern Herman Miller<br />

furnishings, telephones, bright natural light, single or multiple desk<br />

set-ups, kitchen, conference room access and other amenities.<br />

Workscapes and Carrie Leigh Designs, two of the most<br />

memorable and talented design teams around, designed the Seed<br />

space. There is a faux green plant wall to uplift your endorphins, a<br />

Zen Relaxation Room to contemplate your next move (or cultivate<br />

inner calm), wooden wall art to perk up your creative cortex and<br />

modular furniture for congenial meeting spaces.<br />

There is also a lounge space, private meeting area, reception<br />

center, phone room and other amenities. Add that to concierge<br />

services, social and networking events and you have an optimal<br />

workspace that is perfect for growing a new business or sprouting<br />

from a larger one.<br />

Because Seed was formally a two-story bank, it has a strong<br />

structural foundation with large arched windows and wide-open<br />

floor plan. Seed is walking distance to the Delray Beach Train<br />

Station and right off Interstate 95 for roadway convenience.<br />

“At Seed, we do things differently,” says Marks. “Hustle and grind<br />

is replaced with smart working. All work and no play is replaced by<br />

plenty of both.”<br />

Marks believes that their holistic approach to co-working<br />

fosters productivity and creativity. And, it does make sense that a<br />

growing community of diverse professionals has the potential for<br />

networking and support. Especially if given the proper environment<br />

for this alchemy to take place.<br />

Main Conference Room<br />

“We’re offering something new,” Marks says. “A big-city take on<br />

Delray Beach co-working. This original idea grew from a desire<br />

to create a bright, buzzing space where you can come and get<br />

things done.”<br />

The Delray Beach Station (formally The International Plaza) has<br />

undergone a metamorphosis and is repurposed to fit the needs of<br />

Delray residents. According to Seed creators their brand is tied to<br />

the holistic approach of its neighboring organic megabrand. “Seed<br />

is founded on the concept of the same holistic approach to life and<br />

work as Whole Foods Market.<br />

The S.J. Collins Enterprises, owners of Delray Beach Station,<br />

have redeveloped the shopping center and created a new modern<br />

shopping experience.<br />

Seed retail neighbors include: Papa Giuseppe’s Italian, 9-Round<br />

Boxing, Subway, Hand and Stone Massage, First Watch Pet Supplies<br />

Plus, Club Pilates, Banfield Pet Hospital, Poké, BurgerFi, Vana Spa,<br />

Tipsy Salon Bar and more.<br />

“At Seed we cater to people like you who want to spend their<br />

workdays among like-minded people in a setting that feels<br />

professional and inviting,” adds Marks. “We want you to look<br />

forward to coming to work in the morning. That’s why Seed is<br />

founded on a principle of balance, productivity and style.”<br />

The ultimate concept of Seed is to combine light, airy shared<br />

work areas with modern, private offices. This creates a coworking<br />

space that suits solo freelancers all the way up to thriving<br />

businesses. And, with a global economy that rewards mavericks<br />

and free thinkers - this is the perfect proving ground for creativity<br />

and culmination of ideas.<br />

“Seed’s ethos is all about creating that perfect work-life balance,”<br />

says Marks. “Our professional setting has an organic, energetic<br />

ambiance where you can turn your ideas into reality.”<br />

The Seed Workspace creators are proud of what they have to offer<br />

the community. They invite you to drop by for coffee and a tour.<br />

There is something for every size small business or solopreneur.<br />

Making A Difference One Day At A Time<br />

Like Santa Claus, Sarah Crane<br />

came from a faraway land<br />

bringing gifts to distribute.<br />

Unlike the traditional ones under the tree hers are more subtle<br />

in nature, yet equally as profound in their entirety.<br />

As the Executive Director at Help Our Wounded (HOW)<br />

Foundation, Crane tends to those with brain or concussive injuries.<br />

Her impact on this segment of this population is to make sure they<br />

have access to Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy.<br />

This lofty goal is the center of her universe, yet there are many other<br />

planets in her social and philanthropic orbit. They range from the<br />

Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce to Impact 100 PBC, Palm Health<br />

Foundation’s Brain Advisory Council, Old School Square and beyond.<br />

To categorize this young woman is a fools’ errand. She is an accomplished<br />

singer and actress and can be seen belting out the National<br />

Anthem on St. Patrick’s Day at various Veterans events in Palm Beach<br />

County and Virginia.<br />

She’s also the consummate volunteer, coordinating and shaping up<br />

various activities around town. “I am a compulsive volunteer,” said<br />

Crane, who seems much older than her 33 years.<br />

Crane moved to Delray Beach six years ago after getting a Masters<br />

Degree in Cognitive Neuroscience from the University College<br />

London in the UK. She also received a Masters Degree in Business<br />

from FAU.<br />

Though she is a woman of the world, Crane was born in Connecticut<br />

and raised in Virginia. Her grandmother, who has a winter<br />

home in Delray Beach, was her biggest influence growing up.<br />

And her biggest inspiration for helping veterans or civilians seek<br />

medical help with HBOT treatments.<br />

“My grandmother Maggie has been getting Hyperbaric Oxygen<br />

Treatments for over 20 years and it helped her stay sharp, energetic<br />

and improves her health. My great uncle was a veteran and<br />

suffered from PTSD. My grandmother saw him suffering and felt<br />

so helpless to stop it.”<br />

When Maggie discovered the miracles of HBOT treatment it<br />

was a life affirming dream. She then created the non-profit HOW<br />

Foundation that her granddaughter has continued to keep at the<br />

forefront of hope for those with TBI and PTSD.<br />

“We are improving veterans’ quality of life with HBOT. It’s<br />

shown to reduce anxiety, depression, insomnia, brain fog and increase<br />

energy. Patients come to us with a backpack full of medication<br />

and after they go through the program their medication is<br />

reduced or safely eliminated,” said Crane.<br />

But it’s not just veterans that are benefiting from the HOW Foundation.<br />

It’s also equestrians, car accident victims and athletes.<br />

Crane (and her team) just gave a presentation at the Winter Equestrian<br />

Festival about concussions, brain injury and HBOT treatment.<br />

HOW was selected to compete in the Great Charity Challenge at the<br />

Palm Beach International Equestrian Center <strong>February</strong> 1st.<br />

When not working at HOW Crane can be seen helping out at a myriad<br />

of places. She was front center at the Sand Sculpting Contest on<br />

Delray beach July 4th, she co-founded the Foundation for Collective<br />

Impact (that raised money and sent emergency items to the Bahamas<br />

after the hurricane) and was a grant reviewer for Impact 100 PBC.<br />

After meeting this energetic do-gooder, one has to wonder – what<br />

is her motivation?<br />

“My desire to help people was definitely influenced by my grandmother.<br />

She was involved in environmental and wildlife conservation<br />

and never backed down from a challenge. Even as a kid I used to act<br />

as a peacekeeper. I would negotiate between two different points of<br />

view and create a unique solution.”<br />

It seems that Crane continues this tradition today. Her work at the<br />

Delray Chamber of Commerce has ranged from Nonprofit Council, to<br />

Board Member and Ambassador.<br />

Stephanie Immelman, President and CEO of the Chamber is in<br />

awe of this young woman’s devotion to those around her. “Sarah approaches<br />

everything she is involved in with thoughtfulness, insight<br />

and wisdom beyond her years. I’ve been lucky to work with Sarah<br />

Crane in many capacities.”<br />

Though she prefers to stay under the radar, Crane has been noticed<br />

as if she were a Phoenix rising in the morning sun. She was nominated<br />

by the media as one of five working women to improve the quality<br />

of life in Delray, and she was nominated for Business Person of the<br />

Year in 2018 by the Delray Chamber.<br />

Though she describes herself as a plucky philanthropic country<br />

mouse who travels the world with a dachshund, her history shows<br />

a fascination with human behavior. She got a Bachelor of Science<br />

Degree in Psychology at Virginia Commonwealth University. While<br />

there she excelled in graduate courses such as Biopsychology, Advanced<br />

Child Psychopathology and Adult Psychopathology. “I love<br />

to see what’s happening in the brain and how it affects behavior,”<br />

she adds.<br />

Her friend Gregg Weiss has observed Crane’s behavior and is<br />

happy to report that she is as genuine and selfless as she appears.<br />

“I always knew there was something special about Sarah. She is<br />

one of the rare souls who delivers what she sets out to do. She is a<br />

big visionary and she’s tenacious. Sarah does things because she’s<br />

passionate about them, not for the glory.”<br />

One of the things that she is passionate about is singing. As a<br />

child she sang all the time and rumor has it she sang in her sleep.<br />

In high school she volunteered to sing at a retirement home every<br />

week. “I would sing the classics - like Gershwin, Porter, Sondheim -<br />

and residents who attended would sometimes end up crying. That<br />

memory, and that release and joy of connection, is what kept me<br />

coming back to sing for them.”<br />

It’s also what brings her to events around town where she belts<br />

out a Broadway caliber voice that will have you thinking, ‘doesn’t<br />

this woman belong on the stage?’<br />

Perhaps she does. But for now, all the world is her stage. “I try<br />

to use my gifts to help others and make the world a better place.”<br />

A good place to start!<br />

Pizza Valentina<br />

Scuola Vecchia<br />

Owner Sharon Aloisio bought (and shipped to Delray) the<br />

wood burning oven made of volcanic stone that heats to<br />

1000 degrees. She was one of the first restauranteurs to<br />

make Caputo flour pizza dough taste light as a feather and imported<br />

Italian San Marzano tomato sauce melt in your mouth.<br />

She also imported the wisdom, culinary excellence and 200-year-old<br />

Neapolitan pizza-making skills from the master, Roberto Caporuscio.<br />

And she did it with precision and dedication.<br />

The results were stunning. People came from all over to savor the<br />

that Sharon cooked up.<br />

It was a unique dining experience, and one that Aloisio adhered<br />

to strictly. She followed the tradition of the masters in Italy and so<br />

did her fans – that included locals, out of towners and the media.<br />

The menu grew and so did their expertise. Everyone seemed to<br />

notice. “This is the best pizza anywhere. There is true integrity in<br />

Scuola Vecchia<br />

The True Essence Of<br />

Eating Italian Pizza<br />

When Scuola Vecchia opened it<br />

was a sensational new experience<br />

that only those who lived in<br />

Naples, Italy would understand.<br />

COPYRIGHTED<br />

what they’re doing here. I eat here once a week,” said Reny Hodan,<br />

owner of a popular Delray restaurant nearby.<br />

Hodan isn’t the only one drawn to Scuola Vecchia. Debbie Gansler<br />

and her husband Howard come once a week as well. “We love it<br />

here and have been coming since they opened. We order the Pizza<br />

Margherita and the specials of the day. The white pizza with figs<br />

and gorgonzola cheese is outstanding. I’m Italian and I love the thin<br />

crust, the ingredients and the excellent service.”<br />

Gansler is correct on all counts. The food at Scuola Vecchia is superb<br />

and its authenticity is overwhelmingly delicate and delicious.<br />

We’ve been here before but it seems with age comes perfection<br />

(like wine and wisdom).<br />

Part of the delicate balance of flavors and textures that seduce<br />

the senses are pizzas named after Aloisio’s grandchildren. Luckily<br />

her son – and business partner Shaun – recently had a baby girl. To<br />

honor her birth a pizza was created in her name. Called the Valen-


Pizza Romeo<br />

PIZZAiolo SHAUN!<br />

THE ART OF MAKING<br />

NEAPOLITAN PIZZA<br />

Fettuccine Mediterraneo<br />

tina, this pizza is out of this world. Made with Prosciutto di Parma,<br />

gorgonzola cheese, cherry pesto and mint, it fills your mouth with<br />

flavors and your spirit with delight.<br />

We also adored the Pizza Romeo, named after Shaun’s five-yearold<br />

son (who enjoys making pizza with his dad). This pizza is divinely<br />

made with homemade mozzarella cheese, thinly sliced potatoes,<br />

crispy pancetta and fresh rosemary. The unusual combination<br />

of flavors and ingredients in this pizza make it decadently delicious.<br />

We weren’t the only ones oohing and aahing over this homemade<br />

Italian fare. Local Delray resident (and finance guy) Dave comes to<br />

Scuola Vecchia quite often and was relishing the food as well. “This<br />

is the best pizza. I’ve been coming here since it opened so I don’t<br />

have to go to New York for pizza. I love Sharon and Shaun – they<br />

care about what goes on your plate and it shows.”<br />

You don’t have to be from New York to appreciate the TLC that<br />

goes into the food at Scuola Vecchia. Take the Girella Salad for instance.<br />

It goes like this – Homemade Mozzarella Cheese Rolls are<br />

stuffed with eggplant, zucchini and Prosciutto di Parma and served<br />

with a house salad with balsamic dressing. It is a celebration of texture<br />

and taste that we found intoxicating. It’s so far out of the traditional<br />

salad comfort zone that the flavors and texture just jump<br />

out at you gleefully.<br />

Speaking of glee – you must try their new homemade Italian<br />

Rice Balls. Called Sicilian Arancini they are lightly breaded and<br />

come three to an order - spinach and béchamel, homemade Bolognese<br />

and Prosciutto Cotto (Italian ham) with mozzarella. They are<br />

simply divine with varying flavors that dance with delight in your<br />

mouth. They’re so good it feels illegal. But, of course it’s as legal as<br />

writing your name on a post-it – but much more fun.<br />

The genius behind much of this excellence and expertise is Sharon.<br />

She learned to cook from her grandmother and has carried<br />

this tradition to fruition in her little corner of the world on <strong>Atlantic</strong><br />

<strong>Ave</strong>nue. She tries new dishes and is constantly whipping up specials<br />

that makes everyone ecstatically happy. Just look around – it<br />

feels like Neapolitan Nirvana. And it is!<br />

We aren’t the only ones impressed with Scuola Vecchia. The Daily<br />

Meal rated their pizza one of the best in South Florida and Trip Advisor<br />

deemed their Neapolitan tradition the best pizza on the planet.<br />

So does Donna from Delray. “My husband and I have excellent<br />

experiences at Scuola Vecchia. It’s the best pizza in the WORLD! We<br />

always feel like family when we dine there. Anthony, Rita, Sharon<br />

and Shaun - what wonderful kind people. The Caprese salad with<br />

their homemade Mozzarella is to die for!”<br />

You bet it is. So is their Fettuccini Bolognese with homemade<br />

meat sauce cooked for three hours to infuse flavor into tomato<br />

sauce cooked in their wood oven. We also recommend the Salad<br />

Mare with fresh baby arugula, jumbo shrimp, grape tomatoes, lemon<br />

and extra virgin olive oil.<br />

Because Scuola Vecchia is a family business they welcome everyone<br />

with the same fanfare. That is why they offer Gluten Free<br />

Pizza made with fresh homemade gluten-free flour (not frozen<br />

like most).<br />

Before you say goodbye to Sharon, Shaun and the devoted staff,<br />

check out their desserts. The Flourless Chocolate Cake would make<br />

a horse whisper and a human covet it like a priceless pearl. We also<br />

suggest the homemade Tiramisu.<br />

Scuola Vecchia has hit its stride. The food is superb, inventive<br />

and homemade with love. Sharon and Shaun are at the epicenter<br />

of all this Italian Culinary Greatness, and they welcome you into<br />

their domain.<br />

We suggest you join them!<br />

misc | ask the petxpert<br />

BY Bill Piechocki and Dr. Diane Sudduth, DVM<br />

What Is Really In Pet Foods?<br />

In last year’s review of the pet food industry, it seems that technology<br />

and research has made it a tough year. Unfortunately, you as<br />

a pet parent are not informed of the struggles the pet food industry<br />

faces. Most of you are unaware of numerous pet food recalls that<br />

occurred last year and the number of pets that have been affected.<br />

Many of these recalls are highly processed, commercial dry and<br />

canned products widely distributed in grocery and pet food stores,<br />

veterinary facilities and online websites. Many are name brand foods<br />

that we are asked to trust for the quality and science behind them.<br />

There are also several class action lawsuits occurring behind the<br />

scenes that are not only arising from these recalls, but also address<br />

the validity of packaging and advertising truth. Does that pet food<br />

you purchased for your pet really contain what the images on the<br />

packaging or commercial show? Do you know the quality or meaning<br />

of any or all the ingredients?<br />

Many of the largest recalls are primarily caused by synthetic,<br />

chemical ingredients that can disrupt the natural balance of the<br />

body. Many are formulated as part of the vitamin premixes that<br />

manufacturers must add to those overcooked and processed diets.<br />

The reason these premixes are added in is that the process itself<br />

degrades the vitamin and minerals normally present in real natural<br />

food ingredients. One major manufacturer premix had an excess of<br />

2900% of synthetic vitamin D which is toxic and can cause kidney<br />

failure among other challenges.<br />

The lawsuits are very discerning, reflecting the claims in product<br />

advertising and integrity. These claims are now being scrutinized<br />

over the truthfulness of the description and labeling of ingredients.<br />

In addition, a recent filing questioned the claims of healthy,<br />

holistic, evolutionary ancestral natural ingredients. Images of wild<br />

grey wolves and bobcats, as well as fresh chicken breast, fresh fish<br />

and vegetables on packages and advertisements can be misleading<br />

and deceptive. All dry pet foods, referred to as kibble, require large<br />

amounts of carbohydrates to form the shape and consistency of the<br />

product. To make this highly processed food palatable to our carnivore<br />

pets, they must be sprayed with synthetically produced “natural”<br />

flavors which are chemicals.<br />

The problem that pet parents are confronted with is the lack of<br />

transparency and understanding of the ingredients being used.<br />

These products are designed for our convenience first which equates<br />

to the use of preservatives, synthetic supplements, stabilizers, appetite<br />

enhancers and colors for the finished product.<br />

When we approach the whole real human grade fresh ingredient<br />

model, we can see the product as it is. If you are preparing your own<br />

entrees or using a producer that you trust, you should still verify<br />

that the ingredients are fresh, wholesome and not pre-processed.<br />

You should know if the ingredients were inspected, handled under<br />

quality and food safety standards and preferably human-grade. For<br />

instance, if you were to purchase a rotisserie chicken and create a pet<br />

food, your label would only list the chicken and other ingredients YOU<br />

added in, not what was added to the chicken before you bought it.<br />

So please beware of what you are buying. Remember, every synthetic<br />

or chemical ingredient will have a negative effect on your pet’s body<br />

and can create disease and imbalance. The fewer need for these ingredients<br />

will equate to a healthier, less stressed and happier pet. Let’s<br />

give your pet the opportunity for a cleaner life and optimal health.<br />
