By Alan Headbloom, Feel Like You Belong

 

When Michele Clark managed an antique store in Brazil, she didn’t imagine that the American customer looking to furnish a restored country mansion would someday become her husband. Today, this transplanted Brazilian keeps one eye on the couple’s South American B&B and the other on their Lake Michigan gift shop. Join the conversation to learn about jeitinho brasileiro (the Brazilian art of wiggle room) and a unique form of grass that glows like gold and lasts for centuries.
