We sadly said goodbye to our beloved Lovie this month, a gentle soul who loved Jesus and cherished the Veranda. Today, we come together to celebrate and honor the beautiful person Lovie was to each of us. Veranda Ministries is currently navigating the complex process of obtaining legislation and permissions to serve more families in need. It's important to note that the Veranda is not an adult day care facility, but a respite care ministry—created specifically to give care partners a much-needed break while their loved ones are cared for with dignity, compassion, and Christ-centered love. This season requires patience, wisdom, and favor as doors are opened and guidelines are navigated. We ask for prayer—that God would grant clarity, provision, and supernatural favor with every decision-maker, and that He would continue to establish the Veranda as a place of rest, renewal, and hope for caregivers and families alike. www.theverandaministries.org Send your comments and emails to: mailto:mao1024@gmail.com

Guest: Jeremy Zakis. Six cockatoos are scouting Zakis's roof and solar panels, behaving similarly to when they destroyed a neighbor's house. His dog Dallas cannot see them from the veranda to scare them off. Zakis considers using a drone to deter the birds since harming them is illegal, but fears expensive repairs are inevitable.

It is our favorite time of year: the 2026 Trend Report is here! Caroline, Taryn, and Liz are joined by the Ballard Designs Product Design Team—Hillary Park, and Will Turner—to break down exactly what is coming next in the world of interiors. The team reveals the surprising colors predicted to dominate (including "Green Glow" aka Slime and "Fresh Purple"), why "Builder Khaki" is making a nostalgic comeback, and the specific design aesthetic that bridges the gap between Gen Z and Boomers. They also discuss the move away from gray, the evolution of bouclé, and why your next gallery wall should feature "weird" personal art. Quick Decorating Takeaways: Brown is the New Black: Move over, cool grays. The team confirms that brown—from "Cocoa Powder" to "Builder Khaki"—is the dominant neutral for 2026. It pairs perfectly with the trending warm metals (like nickel) and "dirty" pastels. Embrace "Grandma Crafts": High-tech is out; analog is in. The trend of "Grandma Crafts" is huge, with needlepoint, embroidery, and paint-by-numbers becoming the ultimate way to unwind and decorate. Look for the "North Star": Celestial motifs are having a moment. Look for stars, moons, and zodiac themes in hardware, bedding, and fabrics as people seek direction and meaning in their homes.

A New Year's Eve celebration with those living with dementia and Alzheimer's feels sacred, filled with soft moments, memories, and unexpected joy. Paper hats sit crooked, cider overflows, noisemakers honking away, and questions may be repeated, but heart and presence matter most. On this very day at the Veranda, stories unfold—some vivid, some fragments—showing that memory lives in body and spirit. Laughter erupts over funny tales, while tender moments honor loved ones lost. The countdown may vary, but the true celebration is about togetherness. Hugs, music, and shared memories remind us that feelings matter more than details, and even in forgetfulness, we remain whole and worthy here. This is what Veranda Ministries and Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly's mission are all about. Happy New Year! We don't have to remember everything to feel something. We don't need every detail to know love. And even in forgetting, we are still ourselves—still belonging, still worthy, still here. www.verandaministries.org

We're excited to welcome interior designer Sara Hillery to the show! Based in Richmond, Virginia, Sara's firm blends function with one-of-a-kind decorative pieces to create story-driven rooms. Named a "Next Wave Designer" by House Beautiful and featured in Veranda and The Wall Street Journal, Sara joins Caroline and Liz to demystify "transitional" design and share her spirited approach to holiday decorating. Sara explains how she balances antiques with clean lines to create timeless spaces, her method for editing a room like an onion, and how she reinvents her holiday decorating theme every single year. She also shares her secret for keeping Christmas trees alive and her favorite way to spark conversation at dinner parties. Quick Decorating Takeaways: Peel the Onion: When defining your style, pin up everything you love on a board, then "peel back the layers of the onion" by removing items until you reach a harmonious balance of favorite pieces. Create a "Thread" Between Rooms: You don't need to paint every room the same color, but rooms should have equal "tonal weight" and a unifying thread (like a specific welt or texture) so you can move a chair from one room to another without it looking out of place. Hydrate Your Holiday: To keep fresh greenery and trees from drying out, soak garlands in water overnight before hanging them, and add a little Miracle-Gro to your Christmas tree water to keep it fresh and prevent needle drop. What You'll Hear on This Episode: 00:00 Introduction to the How to Decorate Podcast 01:00 Sara's background and defining "Transitional Design" 04:00 The art of mixing clean upholstery lines with antiques 07:00 The "Onion" method: How to edit a room and find your style 11:00 Using monochromatic palettes to play with texture and scale 14:00 Connecting open floor plans without matching every room 19:00 The story behind the "Hot Pink Chairs" and lacquered ceiling 22:00 Holiday Decorating: Why Sara changes her theme every year 27:00 Using ribbon and Christmas cards on the mantle 30:00 This year's theme: Pineapples and a nod to Bermuda 36:00 Hosting tips: Pre-planned questions and dinner party quizzes 44:00 Tips for fresh greenery and using Miracle-Gro on the tree 49:00 Closing notes & where to find Sara Also Mentioned: Sara Hillery Interior Design | Website Follow Sara on Instagram: @sarahilleryinteriordesign Maymont House (Victorian Christmas Inspiration) Shop Ballard Designs Please send in your questions so we can answer them on our next episode!

Why is authentic community so hard to find? John Mark explores the modern challenges that keep us isolated—busyness, transience, digital distraction—but then goes deeper to reveal the ancient enemy underneath it all: shame. He shows us how shame disconnects us from God and each other, and how the often-overlooked practice of confession can heal our deepest wounds and reconnect us to the love we're desperate for.Key Scripture Passages: Genesis 2v25; Romans 7v21-25, 8v1-3; Mark 2v17; James 5v16This podcast and its episodes are paid for by The Circle, our community of monthly givers.

In this deeply personal episode, Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly reveals a long-hidden family secret, an admission that, once uncovered, changed the course of events forever. Although the truth may be upsetting, Mary Anne stresses that it is also the foundation for healing. Her story explores how hidden truths affect future generations and how those with dementia may carry the weight of concealed pain and unresolved memories. This discussion highlights that honesty, even when difficult, is an act of compassion. While truth doesn't erase the past, it can help shape a transformative future.

Die Welt von Ethel Cain ist surreal. Nicht nur in den schaudernd-schönen Südstaaten-Balladen, sondern in echt. Im April hat sie als erste Transgender-Frau die Top 10 der USA geentert. Dies mit ihrem Debütalbum «A Preacher's Daughter» - und zwar drei Jahre nach der ersten Veröffentlichung. Die Gründe für dieses Kunststück? Ein wachsender Kult und eine Neuauflage auf Vinyl. Auf dem offiziellen Nachfolger «Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You» kann man die Geheimnisse und die Faszination der Kunstfigur von Hayden Anhedönia aufs neue erfahren: Während sie am poppigeren Ende des Spektrums zurecht mit Lana Del Rey oder gar Taylor Swift verglichen wird, bekommt man ansatzweise auch ihre rabenschwarzen DIY-Drone-Experimente zu spüren, welche uns Ethel Cain erst Anfang Jahr auf der EP «Perverts» vor die Füsse klatschte. Nicht nur musikalisch zelebriert sie Gegensätze. Bei Ethel Cain gehen grosse Liebe und grässliches Unbehagen Hand in Hand. «Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You» ist ein Album zum Gefühl, wenn man im Schaukelstuhl auf der Veranda sitzt, die Sonne geniesst, aber nichts anderes denken kann, als: Was übertönt dieses beschauliche Zirpen der Grillen? Wie immer verlosen wir das Sounds! Album der Woche. Gewinnt Ethel Cains «Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You» jeden Tag auf CD - nur live im Radio!

Interpreten: Anna ReichertLabel: Prospero ClassicalEAN: 4262353970638Johann Carl Eschmann – ein Name, der selbst eingefleischten Klassikliebhabern kaum geläufig sein dürfte. Und doch war der Schweizer Komponist ein hochgeschätzter Zeitgenosse von Mendelssohn und Brahms, letzterer empfahl ihn sogar persönlich seinem Verleger. Klaviermusik aus seiner Feder gibt es auf der jüngsten CD der Pianistin Anna Reichert kennenzulernen, die auch heute wieder Michael Gmasz näher vorstellt.Geboren in Winterthur, stammte Johann Carl Eschmann aus einer musikalischen Familie. Studiert hat er am renommierten Leipziger Konservatorium, unter anderem bei Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy und Ignaz Moscheles. Darüber hinaus pflegte Eschmann enge Kontakte zu bedeutenden Musikern seiner Zeit – darunter Richard Wagner, der ihm eine Serenade widmete, und Johannes Brahms, der ihn geschätzt und sogar seinem Verleger Simrock empfohlen hat. Und doch ist es ihm ähnlich ergangen, wie so vielen anderen auch. Er ist mehr oder weniger in Vergessenheit geraten. Seine Musik? Fein ziseliert, lyrisch, zurückhaltend – beeinflusst von Robert Schumann und seinem Lehrer Mendelssohn-Bartholdy. Seiner Wiederentdeckung hat sich nun die junge Schweizer Pianistin Anna Reichert verschrieben.Auf ihrem neuen Album „Licht und Schatten“ präsentiert Reichert eine Auswahl von Eschmanns Klavierwerken. Und das tut sie mit einer Hingabe, die berührt: charmant, nuancenreich, mit spürbarer Vertrautheit zur Musik. Jeder Ton wirkt durchdacht, jeder Phrasierungsbogen liebevoll gestaltet. Besonders hervorzuheben ist die Suite Licht und Schatten op. 62, die mit poetischen Titeln wie Sommernacht in der Veranda (am Zürichersee), Durch Wald und Flur oder Phantome eine fast bildhafte Klangwelt eröffnet. Auch die Werke aus den Zyklen Grillenfang, Trösteinsamkeit und Frühlingsblüten zeigen Eschmanns Gespür für Stimmungen und musikalische Miniaturen. Ihre intensive Beschäftigung mit ihrem Landsmann Eschmann drückt Anna Reichert auch im selbstverfassten Beihefttext aus, in dem sie uns den Komponisten auch persönlich ein wenig näherbringt. Wer also Lust hat, einen Komponisten neu zu entdecken, der einst von den Großen geschätzt wurde, sollte unbedingt reinhören. (mg)

Mluvili jsme o tom, co je a co není tzv. fine dining, o rozdílech mezi Prahou, Londýnem nebo New Yorkem, a taky o tom, co pro kuchaře znamená michelinská hvězda. Ta první, druhá, anebo dokoce třetí. “Samozřejmě, že toužím po tom, abych Michelina získal. Ale nezblázním se, když se to nestane,” říká Radek David, jeden z nejúspěšnějších českých kuchařů. Dlouho byl tváří známé pražské restaurace Veranda a dalších spřízněných podniků, například Babiččiny zahrady v Průhonicích. Řadu let jezdil budovat restaurace do Kyjeva na Ukrajině. A dnes je “kuchařem na volné noze”, nebo “létajícím šéfkuchařem”, který se věnuje privátnímu vaření, kuchařským kurzům či konzultacím.Na webu RadekDavid.cz píše své zážitky z nejlepších světových restaurací i z podniků, o kterých jste nejspíš nikdy neslyšeli. Představa ideální dovolené? Obejít co nejvíc restaurací. A nechat se inspirovat a taky o tom vyprávět ostatním. Tahle práce ho naplňuje a je spokojený, ale zároveň ví či doufá, že své jméno spojí ještě s nějakým dalším podnikem.O tom všem jsme si povídali, Přeju příjemný poslech, a jako obvykle přidávám text, který na základě podcastu vygenerovala YI (tentokrát poprvé nový Claude 3.7 Sonnet).Miluju rondon. Je to taková naše uniforma, říká šéfkuchař Radek DavidRozhovor Miloše Čermáka s Radkem Davidem nabízí fascinující vhled do zákulisí kulinářského světa, který přesahuje hranice běžné konverzace o jídle a vaření.Davida, který po dvou dekádách v legendárních pražských podnicích Babičina zahrada a Veranda nyní působí jako "létající šéfkuchař" na volné noze, charakterizuje pozoruhodná upřímnost a nezaměnitelná vášeň pro řemeslo. Jeho nová profesní etapa není jen pragmatickým kariérním obratem, ale projevem hlubší filozofie – touhy po autentické tvůrčí svobodě a sdílení znalostí.Pozoruhodná je Davidova ambivalence vůči žádoucí michelinské hvězdě. Na jedné straně o prestiž evidentně stojí, na druhé straně artikuluje oprávněnou kritiku systému, který stejnou hvězdou oceňuje sofistikované restaurace i stánky se street foodem. "Měli to vymyslet trochu jinak, třeba pro streetfood udělat hvězdu jiné barvy," říká. Odhaluje tak svůj přemýšlivý vztah k oboru.Fascinující je pasáž o praktikách špičkových světových restaurací, které si předem "lustrují" hosty, kteří si zarezervovali stůl. "Vědí, kdo přijde," popisuje Radek David svou zkušenost z newyorského Per Se, kde ho při druhé návštěvě přivítali jménem a připravili mu poznámkový blok, protože si pamatovali, že si při první návštěvě dělal poznámky.Z rozhovoru vystupuje i důležitý kontrast mezi českou a zahraniční potravinovou kulturou. Davidův nostalgický popis ukrajinských tržnic s vůní "rajčat, jahod, broskví" proti českému systému, kde "všechno to je podtržený, aby to vydrželo týden na lodi nebo v kamionu", nabízí zamyšlení nad globalizovaným zásobováním surovinami.Podtext celého rozhovoru tvoří téma gastronomické mediální kritiky. David s Čermákem shodně konstatují úpadek seriózních recenzí v tištěných médiích – ne kvůli nedostatku prostoru, ale kvůli náročnosti procesu. "Ty musíš mít člověka, který do tý restaurace jde, stráví s tím dvě hodiny, a redakce pak ještě zaplatí účet. To je důvod, proč tenhle žánr prakticky vymizel. Prostě na to v médiích nejsou peníze," vysvětluje Čermák ekonomiku dnešní žurnalistiky.Navzdory všem výzvám a tlakům současného gastronomického světa David uzavírá rozhovor překvapivě optimistickým výhledem: za deset let bude svět lepší. Po pronikavé sondě do vztahu společnosti, ekonomika a jídla je nadějeplná a občerstvující tečka. Něco jako dezert na závěr mnohachodového menu.
From childhood dreams inspired by a transformative day in Manhattan to co-founding Chairish, Anna Brockway's love for New York City has come full circle in a stunning apartment overlooking Central Park.
