SIMON’S ENERGY SAVING TIPS. DON’T FORGET THE PELMETS ! If I said “Curtains keep our homes warmer in Winter”, most readers would agree. But if I said, “Curtains with Pelmets do so far far more effectively”, many readers might scratch their heads and wonder what a Pelmet is (as they fell out of fashion for some decades). A Pelmet is a boxlike framework mounted over the top of a curtain rail intended to 1) Create a pleasing appearance by concealing the rail, often with decorative material, and 2) To minimize Heat Loss. A Pelmet minimizes Heat Loss by preventing the flow of warm air between the space between the curtain and the window and the space above the window. Imagine you are in your warm home on a Winter’s night. We all know that hot air rises, so warmer air tends to collect just underneath the ceiling, level with the top of your curtains. Meanwhile outside, cold air touches the outer surface of your windows sucking heat out of them. The cold window in turn sucks heat out of the air between the curtain and the window. Now while hot air rises, cold air falls. Without a Pelmet, the cooled air between the curtain and the window fails to the floor … and this in turn sucks warmer air from above the window down to replace it. Now that warmer air is also cooled by the cold window and so falls to the floor sucking even more warm air downwards. This process repeats itself over and over, pumping heat out of your home ! But a Pelmet blocks the warm air above the window from being be sucked downwards preventing the cycle of heat loss.

Arts and Crafts CALLIGRAPHY Calligraphy comes from the Greek for “beautiful writing”. Scientific research has found that writing skills are linked to the building of vital neural pathways associated with language and ideas. So knowing how to draw letters can help to build brainpower! And this course is designed to introduce beginners to the art of the written word, help them to improve their handwriting, or produce art work and written documents for special occasions. The course will cover: the three basic calligraphy styles – foundational, italic and uncial; how to use pen and ink to create simple decorations and borders, and simple layout exercises so your writing looks good on the page. DATE: DAY: TIME: FEES
May 4th ~ 8 sessions Wednesdays (or Fridays maybe available) 10am ~ 12.30pm $100.00 (includes a reference workbook).
Although calligraphy is a relatively cheap hobby, special pens, nibs and inks are required so please pick up a requirements list on enrolment. BEGINNERS CROCHET Following the revival of interest in knitting, exponents of the craft have become known as “Chicks with Sticks”. Now it’s the turn of crochet to take the spotlight, so welcome to the world of “Chooks with Hooks”! Crochet is easier and quicker than knitting. It’s fun and affordable (an excellent way to use up leftover yarn) and you can do it alone or with a group of friends. This program s designed to help you get started. It’s based on the classic granny square - a quick and easy way to learn. The course will cover: how to hold the hook and yarn; the main basic stitches and their abbreviations; how to read patterns; how to change colours in your work, and how to join squares together to make a scarf or cushion.

History: Most blue cheeses were originally produced in caves in their respective areas, where the mould was naturally present. This combined with the unique nutrients that the mould grew on in the caves affected the flavour, texture and blue-green colour of the mould in each of these cheeses. In the beginning, this was most likely discovered by accident when cheeses were stored in the caves, and they developed mould. Then someone decided to taste the cheese that others might have thought to be ruined, and realized how exquisite the taste had then become.

The fresh Camembert cheese is bland, hard and crumbly in texture. Young Camembert has a milky and sweet taste. As the cheese matures it forms a smooth, runny interior and a white bloomy rind that is typical to Camenbert cheese. It has a rich, buttery flavour. The rind is bloomy white caused by a white fungus, called penicilli-
um candidum. The rind is meant to be eaten with the cheese.

It is available all year round and is mostly eaten in raw salads. The best way to prepare it is to cook over high heat quickly to retain its original flavour. It can be stir-fried with meat and seafood or simply par-boiled and drizzled with sauce. It also be used for making soups and stews, or served with spring rolls.
