Martha Stewart Tall Show Recap

For those of you who may have missed the “Martha Stewart Tall Show”, here is a recap.

  • Arianne Cohen, the author of “The Tall Book: A Celebration of Life From On High” discussed advantages tall people have such as, on average earning more than co-workers. She also claimed that people around the world have the same height potential, but that good nuturition and health can help you be taller. I’m not sure if I entirely agree with her height nutrition claims, but I haven’t done enough research. It seems to be genetics in my family.
    Check out the website http://www.seatguru.com/ next time you are traveling. Fly on airlines that have at least 34″ between seats to allow more leg room.
  • Lisa Butcher of Long Tall Sally put on a women’s tall fashion show. To see the fashions featured on the show, click here.
  • Martha Stewart showed the butcher block kitchen counter we previously blogged about.
  • Alain Roby, a pastry chef, made a very tall cake.

I enjoyed the show, but would have liked to have more discussion with tall people and issues we face or advantages we enjoy! I would have loved to be there!

Hotel Rooms for Tall People

I have never thought about searching for hotel rooms for tall people as most beds are made long enough for me. However, this could be an uncomfortable problem for extra tall people. I have heard of some people pulling up a chest or table at the end of the bed to accommodate long legs that are hanging off of the bed. What a pain!

I was looking through a blog called, “Tales of a Tall Girl” and noticed that she had a link to Kimpton Hotels. They have specially made 96 inch long beds made for tall travelers. You have to ask for “a tall room” when making your reservation. View more info and cities that have hotel rooms for tall people.
