Many thanks to everyone who has emailed or commented to wish me good health: I'm better. I started wearing perfume again yesterday, and will be back with a perfume review on Thursday. Meantime, Kevin will have a review of the D&G Anthology fragrances tomorrow.

Several people commented in Angela's article on Masculines and feminines yesterday to note that they had difficulty logging in and had to enter their data more than once for it to "take". I wrote about this (annoyingly intermittent) glitch shortly after we moved and noted that it was on my list of things to fix, but since it isn't fixed yet, I'll repeat it here: if you log in and the page doesn't show you as logged in — that is, you enter your data and don't see the "Welcome" box instead of another blank "Login" box — don't worry: unless you saw an actual error message, you're logged in. You don't need to hit refresh or do anything else. If you want to be sure, you can hit the small "login" button on the widget a second time without entering anything, and that should refresh the screen.
