			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>I was contacted recently about an event going on this weekend, so I took a few moments to check it out.</p>

	<p>It&#8217;s the fifth annual Open Studios at the YoHo Artist Studios in Yonkers.</p>

	<p>I&#8217;d not heard of the <a href="http://yohoartists.com" target="_blank">YoHo Artists</a> before, but they seem to be a really well-organized bunch &#8212; the site even has a video preview of the event.</p>

	<p>From noon to 5 p.m. tomorrow and Sunday, you can buy work directly from more than two dozen artists and see how they work in their loft spaces within the former Alexander Smith Carpet Mills Building at 578 Nepperhan Ave.</p>

	<p>Admission is free.</p>

	<p>For full details, visit the site &#8212; or you can call 212-317-1423, Ext. 964.</p>

	<p>I&#8217;ve written a story on an exhibition that opens in Katonah this Sunday.</p>

	<p>It scheduled for tomorrow&#8217;s Life &#038; Style section, while also running here on LoHud.com.</p>

	<p>The story takes a look at &#8220;A Journey in Maiolica: Italian Renaissance to American Contemporary,&#8221; which opens Sunday and continues through Dec. 19 at the House Museum of the <a href="http://caramoor.org" target="_blank">Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts.</a></p>

	Why have a sale when you can have a blow-out?

	Well,  I&#8217;ve heard from Stephanie Leggio that her Tarrytown shop, Pretty Funny Antiques, is about to host its &#8220;Spring Extravaganza.&#8221;

	I know I&#8217;m excited.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[	<p>I&#8217;ve gotten word from Janet Robinson &#8211; who, along with Barbara Truesdale, owns Szent &#038; Company in Larchmont &#8211; the shop has just expanded its offerings.</p>

	<p>I can still remember what a fun time I had when I <a href="http://justbrowsing.lohudblogs.com/2008/04/10/fragrant-find/" target="_blank">visited </a>them in early April.</p>

	<p>The store, if you remember, specializes in essential oils and related products, all sold within a vintage apothecary setting.</p>

	<p>Anyway, Robinson tells me that Szent &#038; Company is now featuring reed diffusers in four scents.</p>

	<p>Amor, translated as love, is a jasmine-based scent. Sereno, said to bring calm, is orange based. Novo, or new, is a refreshing mix of &#8220;green.&#8221; And Caleo, to be warmed, is based on patchouli, rose and vanilla.</p>

	<p>Going to be tough deciding which one to pick!</p>

	<p>Stop by and check them out at 1969 Palmer Ave. Call 914-834-1515.</p>
