Dear JABBERS: I recently learned that there are nannies in New York City who earn $200,000 per year! (I am soooo in the wrong business.) Although most of us pay a small fraction of this salary for household help, there is undoubtedly a competitive market for quality of life here in Miami, where busy parents work as hard to juggle social, personal and professional schedules as they do to earn the living necessary to accommodate them. If you're desperately seeking a Mandarin-speaking Mary Poppins who excels in the art of toddler negotiations, your ah-mazing housekeeper who has a passion for spit-shining and organic cooking, or a Saturday night sitter who can come on short notice, be sure and check out our JAB Household Help page. It's FREE, fast, and best of all, great help is just a personal referral away. Just click HERE!
Happy Helping and Happy JABBING!

You rely on JABBERS when you need to find an electrician, a Swiss watch repairshop, and kick-boxing classes, so it only makes sense you would turn to each other for book suggestions, too. Summer is soon upon us, so whether you're spending your free time by the pool, at the beach, or in a shady hammock, one thing is certain - you need a good book! Here are some tried and true recommendations to help us all enjoy the lazy days of summer. Tune in during the coming weeks for Parts 2 and 3.

Forgotten Faces of India by Jeanette Denkerova
Recommended By: Ashley Schutz I was thrilled when JABBER Jeanette Denkerova offered to send me the book she wrote about her experiences volunteering at an Indian orphanage. Her story was more inspiring than I ever could have imagined: growing up in the Czech Republic, Jeanette was an international model who always felt she had a higher calling. In the midst of a tragic family health crisis, she set off to India and was transported to a totally different world. She's lived in Boca Raton for the past 15 years and is currently studying for a doctoral degree in Psychology. Proceeds from her book go back to the Indian orphanage to which she has dedicated so much of her time, money and passion. Order HERE.

"I used to work with Eleanor. She is not only a fabulous writer but a great person," JABBER Elizabeth shares. The book tells the story of three sisters returning to their childhood home, each one more different from the next. The only thing they have in common is the discovery that life was not to be what any of them expected. Order HERE.
