I am MADLY in love with the turquoise candelabra in the cover family portrait photo. Where is it from? If it's one-of-a-kind, any ideas where we may find one of a similar design?

I'm also a child of the information age, but I'm also old-fashioned. I love hand written letters over emails and phone calls over aim chats (though Skyping is pretty great).

For school, I was required to get a laptop early on in my program. It was really great - rather than being cooped up in my dorm room all the time, I could work on projects sitting on the couch next to my friends. But now that I've graduated, I've gotten an iMac (desktop) - and it's even better!! Because I'm not mobile with it (and also not doing schoolwork anymore), I've started spending a lot less time on the computer, and I love it. It opens up hours of time to do other things.

I'm also the sort of person who refuses to get a smartphone. I like the idea that I could shut my laptop or just walk away from my computer and not be accessible to everyone, all the time. As technology gets better, privacy gets worse, and I like having time to just myself.
