One of City Island's charming shops is owned by Bonnie Riconda. Her jewelry design philosophy is based on her love of brilliant, bright colors, a light feeling of airiness, and of all things truly hand-created by the artist.

Bonnie uses no fabricated parts, but wraps all gemstones and beads by hand, and even makes her own hoops and french wires. Precious and semi-precious gemstones, Austrian crystals, freshwater pearls, and other stones are used in combination to create a wonderful palette of colors in her original designs.

MOTHERS DAY WISH

If you take a moment, like I should have done long ago and far away - To think about it and analyze what mom truly wants for mother's day, you may arrive and the following conclusion and realization.

It's not a visit to the beauty parlor, or spa for a manicure, pedicure, massage or a facial.

It is not Sunday brunch with mimosas, not a shopping day!

As I should have realized long before I did, what mom really and truly wants, I believe is some basic, love, peace, quiet and alone time to show appreciation.

It is too late for me, but it may not come too late for you.

Under the threat of war, the United States had refrained from annexing Texas after the latter won independence from Mexico in 1836. But in 1844, President John Tyler restarted negotiations with the Republic of Texas, culminating with a Treaty of Annexation.
