Locally designed and manufactured, Jumpseat bags are the brainchild of former flight attendant Jenny Longley, a Parsons-trained graphic designer, fine artist and interior decorator. In 2004, Longley started Skybelts, a belt collection using authentic airplane seatbelt material and buckles. After the belt line took off, Longley expanded her collection of aeronautical-themed accessories to include bags.

In honor of Super Tuesday, I'm checking in on the coyote poll. You know about the coyote, right? In early January, folks reported a little white-brown-gold number loping through Discovery Park, too brazenly for it's own good. Eventually, there were reports the coyote stalked walkers with small dogs, skittered across porches at nearby Navy housing, and severely injured a cat. This is the sort of behavior that can get an animal killed.

If you’re eager for a sneak peek at the company’s 2007 designs, visit www.rosannainc.com where you can see and buy her latest creations before they hit stores. I’m particularly smitten with the “Boho” refined porcelain tableware. The eclectic bohemian mixture of botanicals, stripes –– even polka dots –– makes for a lively and fashionable tabletop (set of six dessert plates, $48; set of six dinner plates, $90).

As I enter my first airport store, I warily wonder what I will find. Worthwhile merchandise or a bunch of tourist schlock?

My friends tell me I'm the most difficult kind of shopper, one who wants it cheap AND good. In my defense, I'll say that what I'm really after is value, and I'm more than willing to pay a fair price - or go out of my way - for something that is truly worth it.
