Profiles Robin Whitney

ProMedica’s chief strategic planner, ‘Don’t sweat the small stuff’

By Erin Holden

PHOTO BY COURTNEY PROBERT

When Robin Whitney majored in civil engineering, there were even less women in the field than there are today.

“When I graduated in the 80s, there were three females in my class,” she said.

It was very rare for a woman to make a career for herself in construction and engineering, but Whitney has done just that. Now she wears many hats as ProMedica’s chief strategic planning, business development, and real estate officer.

Real estate is “really where I started in the organization,” she said. Her responsibilities, capital planning, construction projects, and managing real estate portfolios, create a vision for ProMedica’s future.

Whitney also spends time volunteering on the boards of the Regional Growth Partnership and Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC). As an alumna of the University of Toledo, she also stays active with the Alumni Association board.

January 2019

We asked Whitney to tell us more about what keeps her motivated at work, her future goals, and about pastimes that bring her joy.

What is something you’ve always wanted to do? Travel. I have a trip to

Alaska planned for 2019, and I’d like to go to Hawaii. Also, (I have a goal) to run the Boston Marathon.

What qualities do you admire most in people? Positive thinking and

energy. I admire people who are solutionoriented.

What are the words you live by?

Make a difference.

What advice would you give to the younger you? Be more

confident. Over the years, I’ve gained more confidence in my abilities. I should have done it earlier.

Who would you most like to meet (living or dead)? Alexander Hamilton.

After reading his book, I think he would have been an amazing person to talk to.

What inspires you in your day-to-day life? What we do as an

organization. I’m around a lot of people who are taking care of others, changing lives, and helping people in their time of need.

Do you have any pet peeves?

Your best self in

Eating Right and Staying Fit as We Age

A new year always brings motivation to make changes for the better, the potential to find ways to reach our full potential and live our best lives. You might be making New Year’s resolutions about your career, relationships or, more often than not, your health. This issue is all about taking care of yourself.

By Erin Holden

It’s that time of year. Your waistline is a little thicker, you are moving a little slower, and everyone is talking about the changes they want to make for the new year. The number one change—you guessed it—weight loss. What method are you going to try?

The Whole30? Keto? Paleo? It’s hard to keep up with the newest trends in dieting, and it’s even more difficult to figure out what is healthiest for you.

For those 55 years older, it can be particularly difficult to get back into shape, so we asked local experts for their advice on how to develop an active lifestyle and practice sustainable, healthy food habits.

Fitness – Where do I start?

Health Events

There are three types of exercise that are equally important, as exercise physiologist for the ProMedica Wildwood Athletic Club Trent Pilmore points out.

Cardio, strength training, and flexibility are the areas Trent Pilmore that we have to continually work on, especially as we age.

Pilmore says that, before you begin a new exercise regimen, “meet with your family physician to make sure you are cleared because, if there’s a change in medication or health status, that can really affect how your body responds.” It’s also important to consult with an expert about where to start (even more so if you know you will have health-related challenges).

For people who struggle with running or other kinds of high-impact cardio and strength training, Pilmore notes that “walking and swimming are easier on the joints.” Going to the gym is great, but people often underestimate the benefits of a

January 2019

simple stroll through the park, particularly if it is done regularly. For those who want to push themselves further, it is vital not to start off too strong, “thinking that the harder you work, the more results you’ll see,” says Pilmore. “That’s not always the case.”

Alleviate pain, build strength

Gregg Schwartz, owner of American Mobile Fitness, does a lot of personal training with seniors. He says that, if weight-training is too challenging, simply doing the motion without weights can be enough for someone to see improvements in their health.

“Range of motion exercise is perfect for helping to alleviate pain and build strength,” Schwartz said. It also depends on the individual as to where they should start with their routine.

One client of his with osteoporosis finds it difficult to stand for long periods of time, so simple exercises involving standing up and sitting down are what she needs for now.

Schwartz started working with one client when she was 89, and she actively trained with him until she passed at age 94. He likes to say that “motion is lotion. The more you move, the better you are going to feel. People don’t need to give up just because they are getting older.

There’s still a lot of opportunity to get stronger.”

The American College of Sports Medicine guidelines recommend that beginners and people who have undergone a health change do light to moderate exercise. How can you tell what exertion level is right for you? On a scale of one to 10 in difficulty, your level of challenge should be between a three and a six. As you develop a routine that started as moderate, it begins to feel too light. That’s when you should up your intensity by increasing the speed or duration of your workout.

Healthy Options for Dining Out

Zaza Wood-fired Pizza & Mediterranean Cuisine is an excellent local option for sticking to a healthy diet when you dine out. Try their vegetarian grape leaves served with hummus, romaine lettuce, and tomatoes. More of a meat eater? Create your own bowl with lean meats, lots of veggies, and go light on the sauce. Don’t forget to fill your bowl with lots of color—the more variety, the more nutrients you are adding to your system.

Recipe from the Primavera Kitchen website: Easy Mediterranean Salad

Ingredients

2 cups diced cherry tomatoes 1 yellow bell pepper 1 cup of red onions 1/2 cup of black olives 1 medium cucumber 3 tablespoons feta (optional) 3 tablespoons chopped sun-dried tomatoes 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon garlic 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1 tablespoon fresh parsley Salt and ground pepper

Directions

In a large bowl, toss together cherry tomatoes, yellow bell pepper, red onions, black olives, cucumber, feta, and sun-dried tomato.

In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper.

Pour dressing over salad mixture and toss.

Top with fresh parsley.

Hockey All-StarWeekend in the Glass City

Hall of Fame recognizes Toledo’s best

T

By Jeff McGinnis

oledo is poised to play host to its first CCM/All-Star Hockey Weekend. The fourday celebration, which begins Friday, January 18 and runs through Monday, January 21, will see five former Toledo hockey players inducted into the Toledo Hockey Hall of Fame.

Celebrations are scheduled throughout Downtown Toledo, beginning with an Opening Night Party at Hensville on Friday and a Winter Brewfest at Fifth Third Field on Saturday night. A regular season Walleye game against the Fort Wayne Komets on Sunday and

the CCM/ECHL All-Star Classic and Skills Challenge on Monday night will round out the weekend.

On Sunday, the 2019 Toledo Hockey and ECHL Hall of Fame luncheon will be held at the Seagate Center.

Sponsored by Cooper Tire, during the luncheon former Toledo players and coaches — Maurice “Moe” Benoit, Mike Eruzione, John McGrath, Chris McSorley and Greg Puhalski (see interviews below)— will be remembered for their based contributions to the sport.

The doors will open at noon, and admission includes a full meal. Tickets are $45 and include a full slate of

Toledo Hockey Hall of Fame 2019 class

events to honor the inductees: the Hall of Fame luncheon, that evening’s Toledo Walleye game and a pre-game ceremony where the inductees’ banners will be unveiled.

(The cost to attend the luncheon alone is $30).

For a complete schedule of the CCM/AllStar Weekend events, go to ToledoWalleye. com/Allstar. Single-game ticket packages are on sale now online or by calling 419-725-9255. Hall of Fame luncheon tickets are currently available only to Walleye Game Plan Holders. Luncheon tickets for the public will go on sale at a later date.

Class o f 2019

Toledo hockey fans have the chance to participate in honoring five legendary figures who participated locally in the sport with the 2019 Toledo Hockey Hall of Fame inductees representing decades of memories.

Chris McSorley played for sev-

eral minor league teams throughout North America before finding his true calling as the man in charge.

Landing his first head coaching job in 1989, McSorley joined the Toledo Storm as the team’s coach in 1991. During his three seasons as coach he led the team to backto-back championships in 1993 and 1994. Since leaving the Glass City, McSorley has continued to coach all over the world, including his current job as coach and general manager of Geneve-Servette HC in Switzerland.

Mike Eruzione, nicknamed “Rizzo,” spent two seasons

with the Toledo Goaldiggers beginning in 1978, winning the IHL Rookie of the Year Award and leading the team to win the Turner Cup that year. Bigger fame would soon come to Rizzo as he was named captain of the U.S. Olympic Hockey Team in 1980, and he scored the winning goal in perhaps the most famous hockey game of all time, the US team’s defeat of the Russian Olympic squad in the “Miracle on Ice.”

Greg Puhalski played four seasons at

Maurice “Moe” Benoit was a defenseman who played for and coached the Toledo Blades from 1963 through 1966. Prior to his tenure in the Glass City, Benoit played for several Canadian International teams and won a silver medal as part of the 1960 Canadian Olympic Team. His Toledo team won the International Hockey League’s Turner Cup in 1964, when Moe was a member of the Blades, and again in 1969 when he played with the Dayton Gems.

Benoit was still a Dayton resident when he passed away in 2013 at the age of 81.

Puhalski played three seasons with the Toledo Storm from 1991-94, also serving as assistant coach during the 1993-94 season. He helped Toledo win back-to-back ECHL Riley Cup titles in 1993 and 1994.

Fourth on the all-time Storm scoring list, Puhalski scored 70 goals with 155 assists in 123 regular season games. In 35 playoff games, he scored 20 goals with 33 assists. Puhalski lead the Storm as the team’s head coach from 1994-98 including four straight playoff appearances.

John McGrath, a native of

Minnesota, became a stalwart of Toledo Mercurys teams over the course of five seasons between the late 1940s and early 1950s. As captain, he helped lead the team to Turner Cup titles in 1948, 1951 and 1952. He was also named the league’s Most Valuable Player in 1951.

‘The Chief’

Puhalski Helped Shape Toledo Hockey Heritage

By Jeff McGinnis For seven years — three as an outstanding center and four as the team’s coach — Greg Puhalski, whose nickname is “The Chief,” was a central figure on the Toledo Storm hockey team.

His contributions helped lead the team to win two ECHL championships. Puhalski joins an elite group as he is inducted as a member of the 2019 Toledo Hockey Hall of Fame class.

“For me, personally, it’s a great honor. I know that there are a lot of deserving people and I just feel honored to have my name thrown in the hat and join the great hockey history in Toledo,” Puhalski said from his home in Waterloo, Ontario.

Puhalski recalls his time in the Glass City as among the most significant of his life — not only because it was where he first became a coach, making the transition from the rink to the bench, but also because of the connections he made here, including meeting his future wife.

“Part of being a coach and a player is being a vagabond. You’re going to different cities, especially the coaching part — you’re not going to be in one place for too long. I can really say my seven years in Toledo, were by far the most enjoyable time of my life.”

Puhalski first began playing hockey in his hometown of Fort Williams, Ontario at the age of nine. “I kinda got a late start, by today’s standards, for sure,” Puhalski said. “My older brother signed me up to play, it just kinda grew from there. I enjoyed all sports, I played everything. As I got into my late teens, the path I decided to focus on was hockey.”

Early Storm player and coach In 1991, Puhalski began playing for the then new Toledo Storm as both a center and assistant coach, helping the team to win two Riley Cups. Three years into his tenure, at the age of 29, Puhalski became the team’s second head coach -- a change, he explains, that was made easier by his teammates.

Greg Puhalski is fourth on the all-time Toledo Storm scoring list and helped lead the team to consecutive Riley Cups in the mid-90s.

“They were really good. Those guys made the transition easier. I had always thought about being a coach, and sometimes you don’t recognize the things that go into being a coach, especially at the East Coast League level. I wouldn’t say it was easy, but it was certainly made a lot easier by the guys that I had to coach. They respected what I had to say, and made the transition that much easier for me.”

After his time with the Storm, Puhalski went on to coach a number of teams in the United Hockey League and the ECHL before assuming his current position, as the head coach of his alma mater, Wilfrid Laurier University in Ontario.

“I’m always looking to change and adapt. I think that if you’re not, you’re not probably doing your job properly. I’ve always had to morph into a different type of coach.”

Honored by his induction into Toledo’s Hockey Hall of Fame, Puhalski said he’s looking forward to reconnecting with a time in his life that still means a great deal to him.

“It will be great to reconnect with some people that I haven’t seen in a long time,” Puhalski said.

Savings Financial Opportunity Centers Help Grow Your Money

By Linda Koss The coaches at Lucas County’s Financial Opportunity Centers (FOCs) are one of Northwest Ohio’s best kept secrets. Working one-onone, the coaches help clients reach financial goals like getting out of debt, boosting savings or improving their credit scores.

Financial Opportunity Centers in the Toledo area have been operating since 2009, funded by Toledo LISC (Local Initiatives Support Corporation) and other community partners.

The Centers provide services to improve the finances of people in the local area with coaching and classes free of charge and open to everyone.

“Typically, clients come in with a long term goal. The coach helps to break those down into short term

goals,” says Michelle Gorsuch, a coach and the manager of the ProMedica Ebeid FOC downtown. “The client should know their total net income— and their total expenditures. People should also be aware of any government benefits they are receiving. The biggest obstacle to financial stability is not knowing how much money is coming in or going out.”

Help with job skills

Often, in the course of counseling, coaches will recognize and identify benefits that the client may be eligible to receive. In those cases, coaches will assist in scheduling an intake with other agencies, help fill out forms, and make sure that the individual brings the necessary documentation so that their appointment is a success.

Michelle Gorsuch, a coach and the manager of a downtown Financial Opportunity Center

Coaches can help with financial applications from banks, or other interactions with financial institutions. They can review a client’s credit report, help them check for accuracy and help in fixing mistakes and improving their credit score.

Besides one-on-one coaching, there are classes in money management, budgeting, the “soft skills” needed to get and hold jobs, resume writing, even a class on small scale investing.

For people seeking work promotions or looking to re-enter the workplace, there are classes and certifications that can be achieved.

Be Good to Yourself

Gorsuch’s mission is to instill her clients with hope. “We tell people coming in that no matter what their financial hardships are, there is always a way to fix it.”

Also, she encourages clients to be good to themselves. “When budgeting,” says Gorsuch, “make sure you have the ability to treat yourself. We can put that in the budget. You need to give yourself a break.”

On a Mission to End Homelessness Cherry Street Mission prepares for Toledo’s winter months

PHOTO BY: JEFF MCGINNIS

Giving

By Jeff McGinnis A local organization that provides basic human needs for those that are homeless is bracing for the frigid months ahead. “In Toledo, we have extreme weather in the middle of winter and the middle of summer,” said Dan Rogers, President and CEO of the Cherry Street Mission.

It’s never easy to be in need of food and shelter, the need for those necessities are heightened during periods of the most extreme weather. Since 1947, the Cherry Street Mission has worked to provide basic needs to those who desire assistance.

As Northwest Ohio enters the coldest months of the year, Rogers’ organization works to prepare for seasonal demands. “We change our protocols, we change the way we conduct business, we change the delivery system itself, because the conditions are exceptional and extreme. We are highly responsive to that.”

Meeting needs, exploring causes

“Many men and women first come to us for relief -- food, clothing or shelter -- but they quickly receive far more from us. We realize that if we can meet your need for relief, in the very next minute we can help you start discovering the reasons why you need relief to begin with.” Help from private citizens is vital to continuing the Mission’s work, Rogers stresses, especially given its status as a privately funded organization. Over 3,000 individuals volunteer with the Mission annually.

“We don’t receive any public dollars, which means that for 72 years we are literally standing on the corners we’re standing on because the community, through its donations, has said that we should.”

The Cherry St. Mission serves on average over 400 people every 24 hours, with the assistance of over 3,000 volunteers annually.

Ways to help

Those looking to offer help can make a monetary donation, or a donation of food products directly to the Mission’s delivery door on 16th Street, open Monday through Friday from 9 am to 3 pm.

But the most significant impact one can make, Rogers said, is simply by volunteering and talking to the individuals the Mission aims to help. “The number one job we have is to rebuild that relationship infrastructure,” Rogers said.

“So to come in and have a meal with us, and sit with us and have a conversation with someone who hasn’t had a conversation in days, or weeks – who doesn’t know where their mom is, doesn’t know where their kids are, are divorced of hope, with respect to every relationship – those early days of being a surrogate friend, or a surrogate family member, is absolutely critical to their recovery.”

For more information on the Cherry St. Mission and on how to donate, visit cherrystreetmission.org, or call 419-242-5141.

Eliminating negative effects of poverty

But, Rogers points out, providing aid is not the only role of the Cherry Street Mission. More than simply giving food and shelter, the Mission aims to eliminate the root causes of homelessness. “(We are) an organization that is focused on the development of human beings,” Rogers said. “Our focus is on reversing the negative effect of poverty, and the elimination of homelessness. We believe development is the best (use of our) efforts, and we provide relief as necessary.”

Rogers estimates that over the course of any given day, over 400 individuals– men, women and children– access the Mission. Over 70 years of service, that amounts to tens of thousands of individuals whose lives have been impacted by Cherry Street’s work. Rogers, who has worked with the Mission for over 18 years, said that he views satisfying the individual’s immediate needs as just a first step in helping them.

Common Mistakes

Besides starting off with too much intensity, people too often make the mistake of skipping a cool down when ending their workout. If you begin with a speedy walk or jog, you should gradually bring the intensity down before you quit.

Pilmore says you should value quality exercise over quantity. He urges clients not to “rip through the motion. That can really damage the joints. It’s better to go slower, focusing on your form.”

One of the most common mistakes for people who are looking to lose weight through exercise is that they don’t change their diet, so they are doing all that work without getting the results they want.

“I’ve had clients in the past (over 55) who were doing everything right, but they admitted their diet wasn’t great,” Pilmore says. “As the saying goes, ‘You can’t out-exercise a bad diet.’”

He often refers clients to a dietitian if they are not getting the right nutrition. “It’s a multidisciplinary approach,” he says. “If you want maximum benefits, you can’t just exercise or just eat right. It does take both.”

Nutritional Advice

Registered local dietitian and nutritionist Liz Satterthwaite says sustainable healthy practices are what work best.

Satterthwaite doesn’t like to label foods as “good” or “bad.” Instead, she says that foods are “ideal” (whole foods) or “not ideal” (processed foods).

“Generally, if it grows in the ground, it’s going to be good for your diet,” she said. Lean proteins and low-fat dairy are essential as well; as we age, we lose body mass and need sources of protein and calcium.

With the popularity of diets like the Whole30, Paleo, and Keto trying to eliminate major food groups, Satterthwaite wants to remind people not to be overly restrictive. That leads to binge eating.

“All of those popular diets are trying to eliminate food groups, specific foods, or sugars,” she explains. “It’s not that those are bad approaches, but they’re not necessarily sustainable.”

The 80/20 Approach

Instead of sticking to diets that have an all-or-nothing approach, try incorporating more vegetables into your diet, cooking at home more, and using strategies when going out to eat.

Your best self in

“If you pick foods like a grilled chicken salad and veggies when you go out to eat, prioritizing ideal foods most of the time,” Satterthwaite says, that habit is more likely to stick. Eating well for 80 percent of your meals and allowing yourself 20 percent of those “not ideal” foods allows us to treat ourselves and still see results.

Most of all, her advice is to “be eccentric with your diet. Try new plants, new beans, different colors. The wider variety and more color your plate has, the more nutrition you are getting and the healthier you’ll be.”

Cannabis Use Booming in Baby Boomers

One of the Fastest Growing Groups to Use Marijuana

By Erin Marsh Tessa Grove, who is in her 60s, “never believed” in the benefits of medical marijuana. Despite growing up in the 1970s, when cannabis use was relatively common, Tessa only smoked marijuana a couple times in high school because it made her feel “paranoid.”

Fast-forward to today and Tessa struggles with sleeping through the night and suffers from a heart condition, endometriosis, and soreness and stiffness resulting from two back surgeries and a shoulder surgery.

Tessa’s primary care physician advised her to take melatonin to help with the sleep and wrote her prescriptions for the other ailments. Tessa confesses, “I would take 12 melatonin pills, plus all my other meds that I’m on, and I still couldn’t sleep.

There were days when I

had to go home early because I was afraid it wouldn’t be safe for me (to wait any longer) to drive [from exhaustion].”

Over the years, friends and acquaintances suggested that Tessa try cannabidiol (CBD), assuring her that she wouldn’t “get high” or paranoid and that she didn’t need to smoke it. Despite her apprehensions Tessa, out of options and willing to try anything, “went to the CBD store and tried the stuff that goes on your tongue.”

Hemp v. marijuana

Kevin Spitler, owner and operator at Toledo Hemp Center, explains, “CBD, aka Cannabidiol, is no different if it comes from hemp or [from] marijuana. The molecules are exactly the same. The difference [is that] CBD in the hemp plant versus [in the] marijuana plant (have different levels of] THC within the plant itself. Both [hemp and marijuana] are cannabis plants, but they are different ‘breeds’ so to speak. Kind of like a Bull Mastiff and a Poodle--they are both dogs, but because of different traits, they are different breeds.”

While the CBD helped Tessa, it wasn’t enough, so she “talked to someone that lives in Michigan (who has access to medicinal cannabis products in that state) and I tried brownies and gummy bears. I began to sleep through the night and (stopped taking) half my meds.”

Dr. Mark Neumann of Advanced Medical Associates, who specializes in personalized medicine, explains that this is one of the positive benefits to using medical marijuana.

“The results are amazing in that, it can completely elliminate the use of prescription drugs.”

Tessa, depsite being impressed by the benefits of edible medical cannabis, discontinued her use due to fear of losing her job. “The reason I don’t [use medical marijuana] anymore is that jobs do drug testing and you need your job.”

While medical marijuana use is now legal in Ohio, reletively few doctors are recommending it, yet. Even if you are using marijuana pursuant to a doctor’s recommendation, a business can still terminate your employment due to the use, as marijuana use is a federal offense.

“I feel as long as you are in your home and not going to work or getting in a car--things like that

- medical marijuana use should be allowed,” Tessa comments. “Why is it okay to put five different pain meds in your body but not take a nibble of a marijuana gummy?”

Use in 55 plus growing

“America has had an ongoing issue of overmedicating seniors. I think they (seniors) are realizing that they need to take control of their health.” says Dr. Neumann. “Typically as you get older, there’s more chances you have of being septic to pain.” Whether it’s in the joints, neck, back or spine, chronic pain is the most common ailment to be treated with medical cannabis.

It has positive results to treating more than just pain, but anxiety, nausea, muscle spasms and seizures as well. “It’s not just a plant that people smoke,” he continues, “that’s a false image to the overall treatment benefits.”

MEDICAL MARIJUANA CERTIFICATIONS SEEING OHIO & MICHIGAN PATIENTS If you have a medical condition that qualifies you for the use of medical marijuana under Ohio law.

If you suffer from any of the conditions below, you could benefit from the use of medical marijuana:

Dini ng out Fowl & Fodder

Healthy Dining, Locally Sourced

By Cynthia Nowak

Everybody, it seems, makes healthyeating resolutions this time of year.

How well we fulfill those good intentions depends a good deal on how much we challenge our taste buds.

Cottage cheese, while a wholesome choice, is about as exciting as, well, cottage cheese.

For food that’s exciting, adventurous, delicious and undeniably healthy, think Fowl & Fodder, the Toledo eatery that has redefined good-foryou food. Founded in 2014 by Chef Scott Bowman via a Kickstarter campaign, F&F serves farm-to-plate crowd pleasers, with items that are all made from scratch, featuring locally sourced grass-fed meats, artisan cheeses, house-baked bread, and eggs from chickens that likely are known by individual names.

Historic meets industrial-chic

Visiting the F&F downtown Toledo location for lunch, the warm and inviting dining venue in an historic building blended well with industrial-chic art features. If stairs pose no problem, take a table on the second level that allows you to see the kitchen staff at work producing the restaurant’s breakfast, lunch and dinner masterpieces that showcase local harvests.

I ordered the potato soup and roasted beets with peppered goat cheese, the latter from the small plates section. How often is potato soup the color of the skins? This one, carrying the earthy essence of roasted potato, truly made an old standby new again.

Likewise, the beets still wore their fresh crunch, pairing perfectly with the perky local goat cheese.

Although F&F’s avocado toast appears on the breakfast menu, it was

a worthy lunchtime accompaniment, capped in nutty dukkah. Served with sweet squash compote and thick slices of maple oat bread, it was intensely satisfying. As with many dishes, gluten-free substitutions are available.

My dining partner chose the signature almond chicken wrap and was impressed as, crusted with nuts, the chicken shared the multigrain wrap with mango coleslaw, cabbage, cilantro, and ancho pepper sauce. A small plate of house-made sweet potato chips, light and sparingly salted, enhanced the entrée beautifully.

Fowl & Fodder offers a coldpressed organic juice bar as well as seasonal specialty drinks. Tempted by their alcohol libations, I ordered a Mi’Almosta, a tall, cool splash of coldpressed carrot and apple juices, ginger and Rheingeist Bubbles, an Ohio rosé ale, a marvel of mixology that tasted both healthy and delightful!

Fresh and unforgettable

During my visit, Chef and owner Scott Bowman was at the F&F flagship location on Central Avenue, but Tiana Holdorf, the downtown F&F manager, shared her enthusiasm for the eatery’s mission with me. Originally from Alaska, she came to Toledo and joined Fowl & Fodder when the downtown location opened.

“We get a crowd of all ages, people who appreciate the super-healthy food,” she explained. “Like when I first tasted the beef here, I was blown away. I asked, ‘What is this amazing meat? It’s so fresh!’”

Tiana left me with this thought, “It’s like home, but better. Everybody should experience what we offer.” And I heartily second the suggestion.

Transition your home from holiday to winter with cozy accessories

By Susan Gibney As you pack the holiday decorations away, it’s a perfect time to cozy up for the long, cold months ahead with comforting shades and warm colors.

“It’s all about texture, layering and pops of color,” said local Interior Designer Nikki Wolfe, who stresses that it’s possible to transform your living space on a budget. “If you have a neutral palette, it’s so easy to add throw pillows or even just new pillow coverings, rugs and accent pieces. You will get a whole new look without spending much at all.”

Nikki Wolfe,

Interior Designer

The eclectic look is still in, according to Nikki.

“Rich layers with curated accessories create a warm, collective vibe,” she said.

Wolfe, who is also a realtor with RE/MAX Preferred, said she encourages clients to redecorate by putting all of their accent pieces on their dining or kitchen table and evaluating where they can next be used, suggesting moving these items into different rooms to give the spaces a new look. “It gives you a whole different feel,” she said.

Make a statement and create a new focal point in a room by painting an accent wall or layering throw pillows and blankets in bright, contrasting colors, she said. “It’s all about layering – make things look warm and inviting using texture like faux fur, sequins or burlap.”

Evoke the feeling of more natural settings too, the Perrysburg resident explained. For the colder months, she uses winter elements like birchwood, logs, pine cones, chunky wool and stones.

“Some of your holiday decorations might still work but just tone them down a bit – like remove the pops of red – but most of all, do what feels right for you and what makes your family cozy and comfortable.”
