Green Mountains Please!
From Anne Miller: REPLY
My children and I are looking to escape the Miami summer heat this year. I am looking for a place to rent in the Burlington, Vermont area. I am flexible as to the dates. I would like to rent for at least a month or six weeks. I need a minimum of two bedrooms to sleep four. A pet friendly place would be great as I have a small dog. We are a neat, non-smoking, well behaved family! Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hail to the JABBERS
From Kirby Richards: REPLY 
I recently posted to JustAskBoo searching for two things: the most perfect, high quality brand of fashion leggings that were warm enough for winter weather and whether or not JABBERS thought sonic facial brushes were worth the $100+ investment. Forty-three responses later I totally have the answers! David Lerner makes the most PERFECT pair of leggings ever, and the package containing my new Clarisonic Mia facial brush arrived yesterday. What a savvy group of readers who are also generous with their time and knowledge. I love you, JABBERS, and thank you for sharing!
