Friends and Family Gather at Lido Beach Club
Lido Beach Club is located directly on Lido Beach, Sarasota Florida, right next door to the Ritz-Carlton Beach Residences. My friend and customer, Marsha Albert and her husband Bob purchased their unit in 2000. The Alberts enjoy the amenities of the Lido beach living and their family visits often. Marsha and I have been 
friends for over 30 years so Scott, Snuffy and I were included in the Alberts family gathering on Memorial Day. Pictured are Marsha's daughter Lesli Kay, The Bold and the Beautiful with her children, Jackson and Alec Coulouris and brother Michael Pushkin. Zelda Pushkin is Lesli's niece and Snuffy often writes about her on his friends page. Zelda's parents are David, an artist, and Grace Pushkin of New York City, Marsha's son and daughter-in-law.
We didn't see much of Jackson this weekend because David was giving his nephew an art class. A model drove to Lido from her home in Bradenton to pose for this 7 year old protege. David has a new business on the horizon! He's an excellent artist and teacher. New Yorkers get out those checkbooks and call David Pushkin for a private art class.
Michael Pushkin, "Uncle Mike", Marsha's youngest son, grew up with my son Scott. They attended elementary, junior high and high school together. Michael once saved Scott's life in the parking lot of George Washington High School. The boys haven't seen each other in years. Mike is pictured with his nephew Alec.
If you thought you saw a celebrity on St. Armands Circle, this weekend, you probably did. You can catch Lesli Kay as Felicia Forrester from 1:30 pm - 2:00 pm EST. Lesli took care of my kids when she was a teenager and worked at my shop, Kitchen Kaboodle too. I'm quite proud to call Lesli my friend, a wonderful mamma and an accomplished actress!
