I Want Cosmetic Surgery to Look Like Pippa?
Recent headlines recount the uptick in the popularity of Prince William and his new bride. Both Kate and her sister Pippa have become instant media celebrities. Along with the newfound fame, are the throngs of people wanting to copy their fashion style, their beauty secrets and the like. I am not surprised that plastic surgeons have been inundated with patient requests to have their appearance altered to look like Pippa.
Is this normal? As a general statement, this is outside the normal range of appropriate expectations for plastic surgery. While I have not personally had such a request in my practice, I would refer these patients for a psyche evaluation.
Good Wine with Good Friends

Pictured here, we shared a small bottle of Strawman dessert wine by Sine Qua Non with friends at Heidi’s Restaurant in Minneapolis last week.
The rich dessert wine is 100% Semillon and made in the style of a vin de paille or dried berry (grape) method, where the grapes are dried on straw mats. Most of the grapes used by SQN are sourced from vineyards in Santa Barbara County. Thank you Deb and Stuart for sharing it with us.
