f someone says “Brazil” to you, what comes to mind? Perhaps it’s their famous Carnival, the Amazon rainforest, the 98-foot-tall Christ the Redeemer statue at Rio De Janeiro or world-class soccer. What you may not know is that South American country is also home to miles of beaches, as well as hard-working cattle ranchers…and incredible food. Now, you don’t have to spend an entire day (or more) hopping flights to Rio or other parts of the country. You only have to head downtown to the historic Stockman’s Exchange Bank building at 8th Street and Weber Avenue and enjoy a meal at Roots of Brasil. There, you get the beach-meets-ranch feel with a wide array of foods inspired by cuisines from around the world. The restaurant’s owners are Mark and Kaila Gillespie, former Kaladi’s owners, who opened the restaurant last month with Kaila’s brother (and chef ), Jamie Grogan, and her parents, Kelly and Tania Grogan. If you’ve been around Sioux Falls for a while, you may recognize Grogan as one of the prominent family names around the city’s St. Patrick’s Day celebration. So, why a Brazilian restaurant? The inspiration comes from the family’s matriarch, Tania, who was born and raised on a ranch in Brazil. When she graduated from high school, her parents gave her a trip to the United States because she had studied languages. While she thought she’d end up in a bigger city, fate brought her to Dakota State University in Madison as part of an exchange program, and that’s where she met Kelly. “Tania has influenced all of us with her love of Brazil, family and, of course, cooking,” says Mark. “She and Kelly took Kaila and Jamie back to Brazil for visits to Tania’s family, so they got to grow up with that incredible experience.” Mark adds that he didn’t expect to be back in the restaurant business so soon, having sold Kaladi’s with their partners a year ago in May. However, he adds, fate has a funny way of opening doors for you. “After selling Kaladi’s, Kaila was working for a marketing company called Social Indoors, which offers indoor digital billboards. She was

down at the Stockman’s building talking with the owners of the new Convolo event space there. She peeked into the empty restaurant space, and a light bulb sort of went off. We were all down here within about an hour, and that was it.” Everyone in the family had a hand in shaping the restaurant, from staining the reclaimed wood in shades of browns and blue to bring together ranch and beach, to hand-painting the main floor to look like the tiled sidewalk on Copacabana beach in Rio De Janeiro. Tania framed one of her beach coverups with the tiled print on it to hang on the wall.

“Everyone goes to the beach, and there are all of these beautiful, colorful cover-ups,” says Tania. “I want to frame more of them for art on the walls.” An alcove right inside the front door is called the “family room” and features a gorgeous dining room table that Mark’s brother, Brian, made. A large metal tree of life hangs on the wall, along with a collection of old photographs, including one of Tania’s family ranch with her father on horseback. As you head up the stairs to the loft, which holds a majority of the seating for guests, you see Brazilian-made hammocks hanging from
the ceiling. “That was an adventure getting those hung,” Mark laughs. “But Tania had one at her home in Brazil, and she told us all the homes there have hammocks for those after-lunch naps.” The space that is now Roots of Brasil was the original Breadico site, and the massive woodfired oven has survived transition from one restaurant to the next. Mark says they are still using the oven for smoking meats and for their specialty pizzas with Brazilian-infused flavors. The menu was as carefully crafted as the restaurant’s décor, thanks to Jamie Grogan, who has been in the business for 30 years,

most recently as chef at McNally’s Pub. “He really infused the flavors and techniques he and Kaila learned from their mom,” says Mark. “We named it Roots of Brasil because Tania taught them that a variety of cultures are part of Brazilian cuisine.” Many people picture a steakhouse when they think of Brazilian food, and Roots of Brasil certainly has that base covered, with individual steak offerings along with Churrasco, which serves four people. With that dish, you have your choice of two charbroiled meats that are served with rice, Feijoada (Brazilian stew) and four other sides
like grilled pineapple, house salad, yucca root fries and collard greens. Get a flavor of the sea with appetizers like mussels or Mariscos (shrimp, scallops and mussels) or entrees like whole red snapper or salmon risotto. Caribbean flavors are infused into the menu with jerk chicken, and you can enjoy the family’s take on comfort food with chicken or beef stroganoff made with rice instead of noodles. The menu also includes an array of Brazilian street foods like pastels, a meat-filled pastry, tacos with local Hernandez tortillas and cachorro quente – a not-yourordinary hot dog.
You can enjoy a Brazilian beer, Argentinian wine or a nonalcoholic drink with your dinner, while rhythmic bossa nova music plays in the background. A ceramic tile on the table says, “What’s for Dessert? Ask Your Server.” Make sure you do this, because the homemade creations vary from flan to a Brazilian pave with alternating layers of creamy lemon and chocolate with cream. The top of the menu has a Portuguese phrase that sums it all up: Onde há boa comida, há felicidade! Where there is good food, there is happiness!

The Yawpers The Yawpers Live at the Levitt Saturday, July 2 • 6:30pm 9:30pm Levitt at the Falls The Yawpers are the sheep in wolf’s clothing. Their sound is a front-heavy, groovy, fire & brimstone punk-blues overlying a dynamic and metaphysical roots rock. The Bloodshot Records’ band crafts tunes that are engrossed in creative context. They conduct parallel frequencies with the ferocious and raw proletarian roots of Uncle Tupelo, the burning-hot thrashings and cavernous sonic space of Hot Snakes, and mix in derisive scrutiny that brings to mind Ween or the Minutemen.

Bacon Asparagus Quiche BY JO MCCLURE
Even though I don’t eat bacon or asparagus, my husband thanks me every time I make this for him! If you are a bacon and asparagus fan, you too should enjoy. 10 bacon strips, diced 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese (4 ounces) 1 tablespoon flour 1/4 tsp salt 1/8 tsp pepper 1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inch) 3 eggs 1/2 cup half and half
In a skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp and then drain. Save 1 tsp drippings. Sauté the onion in the bacon drippings until brown...then drain. Cut eight asparagus spears into 4” long pieces for garnish. Cut remaining asparagus into 1” pieces. In a saucepan, cook ALL ( including the pieces for garnish) of the asparagus in a small amount of boiling water until crisp-tender stage and drain. Don’t overcook. In a bowl, toss bacon, onion, 1 inch asparagus pieces, cheese, flour, and salt and pepper. Pour into the pastry shell. In a bowl, beat eggs and half and half and pour over the bacon asparagus mixture. Top with the 4 inch spears and bake at 400˚ for 30-35 minutes, or until knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Allow to stand 10 minutes before cutting.

A
fter 30 years living in Sioux Falls, Stacey and Dan Dougherty decided to swap city life for lake living, moving this past February into a new home they built near Lake Madison. As they considered “what’s next?” as their children were both grown and gone, the decision to relocate to Lake Madison was an easy one, as they weren’t strangers to the area. “We have camped at Jacob’s Landing for quite a while,” Stacey explains. “There were some houses up there that we liked, so we just started making a list of some of the things we would want if we built our own place and went from there.” The couple actually directed the entire project themselves. “Maybe it wasn’t the way we initially thought we’d go about it,” Stacey laughs, “but it worked out well. As we got started, we’d just move things around on the plan until we got what we wanted, and then we had help from our nephew who is a plumber and other subcontractors.” She admits that she and Dan discussed having a basement or no basement. She was a proponent of no basement. “I was tired of going up and downstairs for laundry.” They did end up building a one-level home. However, being realistic about South Dakota weather, they did incorporate a safe room in the garage. That was a fortunate addition, given the spring storms this year that carried away about half of their patio furniture that had been sitting on the not-yet-screened-in patio. Even though it’s just one-level, the couple maximized every bit of space in creating their three bedroom, two and a half bath home. “I knew I wanted room for the kids and grandkids or other guests,” says Stacey, “but I wanted guest rooms on one end of the house and our room on the other end.” As you come in the front door, there is a small workout room to the right and then two

guest bedrooms separated by a guest bath on the left. With a bright foundation of white walls and pretty grey woodwork throughout the home, the guest rooms are bright and airy, with one accented with yellow and the other with teal. They chose an open floor plan for the main living space, flowing from the kitchen back to the living room. When planning the kitchen, Stacey says she initially thought about white painted cabinets. “I thought about white, but then it seems like everyone is doing that right now,” she explains. She presented her dilemma to Michelle Marino and Denise Cotter at Houndstooth House. “A friend of mine has more modern cabinets, so I told them that’s the direction I wanted to go, and they were like, ‘Let’s go for it!’” The result was light grey acrylic cabinets on top with darker cabinets on the bottom, as well

as on the base of the island, which incorporates the sink and dishwasher, along with plenty of storage and seating for six. “I loved working with Denise and Michelle on the house because we just clicked,” Stacey says. “They just immediately got me and what I was going for. It took about five minutes to choose the quartz countertops because they knew what I would like.” Tucked behind the kitchen is a mudroom with access to the garage, a half-bath and a walk-in pantry with its own sink, the microwave and a large beverage center.
Our people are the roots that makeup Plains Commerce Bank. We believe that a company is only as good as its people and ours are pretty great. This is why we always put our people first and emphasize the balance between life and work. Unity, empathy, and respect create a sense of family and we believe coming together as one is the creation of a community. The living room is cozy, with a mix of leather and upholstered furniture, most of which the couple already had. Stacey says that was another area where the Houndstooth House team was so helpful because they were able to incorporate so much of what she and Dan already had and then just added a few new things here and there. A flatscreen TV hangs over the electric fireplace. “We thought about gas at first, but I’m glad we went with electric,” Stacey says. “We love that you can leave it on without it getting so hot, and the grandkids love it because you can change the colors.”

The Squatter Government
at Sioux Falls BY WAYNE FANEBUST
P
eople began looking to the West while they were building the first towns and cities on the Atlantic coast. Everyone understood that they were facing a vast wilderness, fraught with danger unprecedented challenges. But for many people, the potential rewards outweighed the unknown threats. This eagerness for westward expansion was not lost on the many promoters and their schemes. Looking toward selling guide books and other materials needed for traveling, the schemers understood that both water and water power would attract those with adventuresome minds and ambitions. One such man was Jacob Ferris who in

HISTORY
1856, wrote and published a book entitled Territories and States in the Great Northwest, that introduced thousands of curious people to the wonders of nature including falls of the Big Sioux River. Two companies, anxious to engage in town site speculation, were each very much attracted to the mysterious and far way falls, and having read Ferris’ book, both were soon on a collision course in an effort to get there first and claim the water power and the land surrounding it. The first to arrive in the fall of 1856, were two men from the Western Town Company of Dubuque, Iowa. They claimed the falls for their company and had representatives there
the following spring when their rivals from the Dakota Land Company of St. Paul, Minnesota arrived on the scene. Perhaps sensing the big prize had been fairly claimed, both town site companies set about the matter of town building. Each company having claimed 320 acres, the enterprising men had work to do. As such, Sioux Falls and Sioux Falls City were created separately, although they were destined to merge into one entity. On the wild frontier, the need to feel safe and secure can hardly be understated. While a church or a school was often the first institution to be established in a pioneer settlement, putting together some rudimentary
THE SQUATTER GOVERNMENT AT SIOUX FALLS CITY Originally part of Minnesota Territory, Sioux Falls City was founded during a time of widespread town site speculation on the frontier. In 1856 members of the Western Town Company of Dubuque, Iowa, arrived at the falls of the Big Sioux River and staked their claim under federal law. The following year, members of the Dakota Land Company from St. Paul, Minnesota, claimed adjacent land. Much of what is now downtown Sioux Falls was claimed by the two companies. In 1857 the Minnesota Territorial legislature created Big Sioux County designating Sioux Falls City the county seat, and the business of government proceeded alongside the affairs of the promoters. All went fairly well until May 11, 1858, when Minnesota was admitted to the Union, leaving Sioux Falls City outside its boundaries and beyond the pale of law and order. The settlers believed a new territory, popularly known as Dakota, or Dakotah, would be created by Congress forthwith. They wanted the capital located in Sioux Falls City and the key government jobs for themselves. Toward that end, a member of the Da-kota Land Company was sent to Washington, D. C., to act as a delegate to Congress. A printing press was hauled in from St. Paul and a newspaper, the Dakota Democrat, was established. Next, they issued a call for a “mass convention” to be followed by a general election. Some settlers argued that law and order was urgently needed to prevent Dakota from becoming the domain of outlaws. An election was held and on October 12,1858, a squatter legislature
THE SQUATTER GOVERNMENT AT SIOUX FALLS CITY convened. A code of laws was adopted, and a number of other bills were considered by the squatter legislators, acting with the utmost dignity in a frontier setting. Legislation was subsequently introduced in Congress to create “Dakotah Territory.” A House bill es-tablished Sioux Falls City as the temporary capital and legalized the work of the squatter legislature. Unfortu-nately, however, it failed to pass, leaving the handful of Dakotans in legal limbo. Undaunted, the sturdy pioneers held another convention at the “Dakota House,” near the site of this marker, followed by an election on September 12,1859. Voters again elected a delegate to Congress, a gover-nor and a legislature. Like their predecessors, the new squatter legislature worked with dedication and spirit. Once again, however, their efforts were prema-ture. Congress was grappling with the thorny problems of slavery and states rights, and largely ignored the ambitions of the Dakotans. At long last, on March 2, 1861, Dakota Territory was created by Congress and the settlers were squatters no more.

form of government was also an important priority. After all, the pioneers had lived under some form of federal or local government back East so law and order had become a natural part of their lives. Town site speculators had to convince would-be settlers that their town was safe and orderly, and soon after their plat maps were laid out with parks, streets and avenues, the business of setting up a local government was given prompt attention. The settlement at the falls of the Big Sioux River was no exception, but the matter of establishing and maintaining authority was anything but routine. The town was founded through the combined efforts of the Western Town Company and the Dakota Land Company so it was deemed important that men from both entities hold positions of authority. At the outset, Sioux Falls City and other town sites along the Big Sioux River were a part of Minnesota Territory, but they were so far from the capital in St. Paul, that time and distance were serious issues. The Dakota Land Company used its influence with the Minnesota territorial legislature and before the year 1857 ended, Big Sioux County was created and Sioux Falls City was designated the county seat. Not long after, Minnesota became a state, leaving many of the newly formed towns such as Medary (present day Brookings County), Eminija, and Flandrau beyond its borders, unorganized, and without law and order. So with no legitimate form of government to guide them, the settlers became “squatters,” an uncomplimentary label that simply meant that these men had no lawful ability to hold political office. But the hopeful men--and their women waiting in St. Paul and Dubuque, where they enjoyed minimal comforts-believed that the federal officials would soon create Dakota Territory. Congress, however, was in no hurry to act so the ambitious speculators went about forming a “squatter” government. While their motivations were far from altruistic, this handful of hardy settlers proceeded as would any band of colonists,

isolated in the wilderness. So it was during the winter of 1857-58, while the combined population of Sioux Falls and Sioux Falls City was a mere sixteen, it had one official for every two citizens but no one complained about a top-heavy bureaucracy. And it is noteworthy that men from both town site companies were chosen to hold office. These men took their offices in December, and as winter was in full swing, very little of a political or official nature was done. All the energies and efforts of the colonists had to be applied to surviving their first Dakota winter. Then in February of 1858, tragedy struck and nearly derailed all the speculators noble plans and ideas. It started when W. W. Brookings, who was managing the affairs of the Western Town Company, left Sioux Falls City on horseback one cold morning along with Smith Kinsey. The two men were on mission for their company. But it was an ill-timed move, for Brookings and his horse slipped through the ice while crossing the Split Rock River, and as a result, he could have easily frozen to death on the prairie. As it turned out Brookings nearly died at the town site. His friend, also from Maine, Dr. J, L. Phillips cut off both legs of his friend, about four inches above the knees. Brookings lived but he was disabled for the rest of his life. Brookings and his colleagues had a die hard belief in their goals. Both town site companies persisted in the belief that if they stayed and built, others would join them. Their beliefs were given substance by news that the U. S. Senate passed the Homestead Act that would give 160 acres of land to the settler who lived on it and improved it. While some viewed this as a give-away, and a disaster to creditors, the land hungry saw it as timely deliverance during a depression. And while the House had yet to act in favor, the prevailing opinion held that it would do so at some future time. A “Sioux Falls correspondent,” to the Washington Union urged the “sons and daughters of the east, of the middle, and
southern sates...” to push “out into the undressed garden of the sunset land.” In a piece that could have been taken from a Dakota Land Company minute book, he called Dakota a land of “salubrious clime,” with “rich and inexhaustible soil.” He predicted that in a “year or two hence,” America would see on “the upper Missouri, and the Big Sioux and James Rivers, fleets of lofty steamers astonishing the natives with their shrill whistles,” and filling up the land with people and merchandise. Support from a distant newspaper could only be encouraging to the hardy band of speculators. Soon a hierarchy of talent took to the fore. Artemas Gale, Alpheus G. Fuller, Charles E. Flandrau and Jefferson P. Kidder, emerged as leaders of the St. Paul company. Also noteworthy was that W. W. Brookings, Dr. J. L. Phillips and John McClellan took the reins of leadership for the Dubuque company. These men saw themselves as leaders and future office holders in the land they called Dakota. They conducted “mass meetings” in Medary and Sioux Falls City, although the number of attendees was anything but massive. Nevertheless, it was reported that at a recent election held for Congressional Delegate, six hundred votes were polled in the Territory of which number Alpheus G. Fuller, Esq., received over five hundred votes. The “election” referred to above was held on October 13, 1857, although it was not an election in a true sense. In fact it was openly and shamelessly rigged. Three or four men would hitch up the wagons and travel out over the prairie. They would make various stops and set up “precincts,” and as there were far to few actual voters, they would down some whisky and write down the names of friends and relatives back east who, it was claimed, fully intended to someday move to Dakota. When news of this “election” reached St. Paul, it drew friendly fire from a rival newspaper: the St. Paul Daily Minnesotian thoughtfully pointed out that “Dakotah” is a myth. It existed solely as a “popular assumption without any law to authorize or sustain it.”
Jefferson P. Kidder
This was not meant to disrespect the popular Fuller, a successful St. Paul entrepreneur who migrated west from Connecticut. The writer of the article acknowledged the genuine need for representation in Congress by deserving people, but until Minnesota was admitted to the Union, the settlements in Dakota were merely a part of Minnesota Territory Most historians agree that the leadership of the Dakota Land Company was consistently more forceful and powerful than their Dubuque rivals. In 1858, they convinced a veteran newspaper man named Samuel J. Albright to load up his press and take root in Sioux Falls City. Albright was only too pleased to be the first man to publish a newspaper in the fledgling town. He set up his press in a small stone building near the Big Sioux River
S. A. Albright, editor of “The Democrat”, Sioux Falls’ first newspaper
and went to work in a manner that reflected his belief that he was on the ground floor of a dream enterprise that could only move up. And while the creative and enterprising Sioux Falls boosters were asserting themselves most vigorously, another, equally determined group of men on the Yankton slope of the Missouri River put forth their goals. Led by John Blair Smith Todd, a brother-in-law to future President Abraham Lincoln, these men had their sites set on the big prize: the capital city of Dakota Territory, something that all knowledgeable men believed was destined to happen, For Albright, Fuller, Todd and their fellow Dakota pioneers, there was much work ahead and the two camps---Sioux Falls and Yankton--were up to the challenge. The Dakota Land
Company refused to let Fuller’s loss put an end to their plans for territorial dominance; they wanted the territorial capital too. As the speculators were unwilling to throw in the towel, they sent Jefferson P. Kidder to Washington, D. C., in 1859, hoping he would succeed where Fuller failed. Once again Congress was unimpressed. With sectional strife raging and a looming civil conflict on the horizon, the wishes of a handful of speculators in the far West were easy to ignore. Suffice it to say at this point, Todd and his Yankton allies had been, in part, responsible for defeating Fuller, Kidder and the Dakota Land Company. But no one was ready to quit and all would be heard from again as the opposing groups struggled for control of Dakota’s political and economic destiny.

Time for the Yardbirds BY JIM MATHIS
I
used to work with an older guy who always referred to chickens as yardbirds. Apparently, when he was a kid, his family had chickens roaming the yard around the family farm. His mother would send him to the yard to dispatch one of the brood; that luckless hen would become supper. Things are a little easier for us. We can go to the mega-mart or butcher shop and select chicken ready-to-cook in dozens of ways; a whole chicken, 30 wings, two hindquarters or four boneless breasts; your choice, ready to cook as you wish. For a long time, I would buy just chicken parts; I’d get breasts to grill, thighs for paella, tenders for stir-fry, just pieces and parts as needed. But I’ve since discovered that it’s best to buy the whole bird.
48 nest |
MAN IN THE KITCHEN
It’s more than the two of us need for a meal, but the extra parts are better when they’re all cooked together. This weekend I’m going to roast a whole chicken. A simple yardbird cooked with a few ingredients. When I’m done, we’ll have dinner for the night and precooked chicken for a salad later in the week.
Beer Can Chicken? As I guy who likes to grill, you know I’ve tried the beer-can chicken method. It’s a pretty simple idea really. You use a half full can of beer inserted into the cavity of the chicken to help it stay upright while it grills. The proponents of this method say the steam created as the beer boils helps to keep the chicken moist. But the reality is that the
steam is released from the top of the can right near the opening at the neck of the bird, so it finds the path of least resistance and escapes without really adding much to the party. Kind of a waste of a good beer. But I’ve found there are devices you can buy that hold the chicken upright, release steam lower in the cavity and let the bird cook evenly and develop a nice crispy skin. The versions I have are made by Weber from cast aluminum and steel. They have nice builtin drip pans that catch the fat and juices, a shallow area to fill with beer, wine, or chicken stock, and it leaves room in the cavity for herbs and aromatics. I’ve found this works much better than the beer can and produces a finished product that is much like the
“What does spatchcock mean?” skin side down, flipping once and keeping an eye on it till it’s done. Depending on the temp of the grill, it will take somewhere between 30 to 40 minutes. I find that the slower it cooks, the juicier the bird, so don’t rush it.
The Most Important Tool
rotisserie chickens you buy at Costco, Look’s or the grocery store. And that’s not bad at all.
Brick Chicken Another legendary way to cook a bird is under a brick. Typically for this method, you will ask your butcher to spatchcock the chicken for you. If the guy behind the counter doesn’t know what you’re talking about, leave that store and go to a real butcher shop. What does spatchcock mean? Good question: it means that the fowl has been split open like a book. You can do it yourself by simply cutting out the backbone of the chicken with a pair of poultry shears and pressing it flat. Save those backbones in the freezer until you’ve got six or eight and use them to make chicken stock. If your butcher does it, they may also remove the breast bone and ribs and you’ll have two halves of the chicken pretty much ready to cook. For the brick chicken, you’ll want to wrap a couple of bricks in aluminum foil and heat them in the oven or on the grill for at least a
half an hour. Then you’ll put the spatchcocked bird skin-side down in a large, hot skillet, either cast iron or carbon steel. Then those hot bricks go on top of the chicken, so the pan cooks the chicken from the bottom while the brick heats from the top and ensures good contact with the pan. The result is a bird that cooks quickly and gets a nice crispy skin. But personally, I think it’s more work than it’s worth.
Grilled Chicken After much experimentation and testing, I prefer to simply grill the spatchcocked chicken. It’s so simple and it produces juicy, flavorful chicken that’s as good as you’ll get in just about any restaurant. I let the boys at Look’s Market do the dirty work and prepare the birds. Then I make a simple herb and garlic rub with parsley, sage, and thyme from the garden, a few cloves of minced garlic, and generous amounts of salt and pepper. Spread the mixture on both sides, drizzle with olive oil and grill over medium coals. I start with the
Whenever you’re dealing with raw poultry, you’ve got to be careful not to contaminate other foods. Safety first! Chickens are notoriously dirty. Use separate cutting boards, separate knives and tongs, and make sure you clean up after yourself. Remember the four rules of food safety; clean, separate, cook and chill. These are crucial rules when working with poultry. So what’s the most important tool? A really good instant-read thermometer! I use a ThermoPen. They are quick and accurate albeit a little expensive; they run about a hundred bucks. That’s still way cheaper than medical bills when the whole family gets food poisoning. Get a good thermometer and use it. Chicken should be cooked to 165 degrees, but cook it too long and it becomes rubber. I recommend pulling the chicken off when the thickest part is at 160 and letting it rest for ten to fifteen minutes. The carry-over heat will get you up to 165. An instant-read thermometer helps you walk the fine line between safe-toeat and over-cooked. When served with some grilled vegetables and a bottle of white or rosé wine, a simple roasted chicken becomes an elegant dinner. And there’s the bonus of some really good leftovers for later in the week. Do yourself a favor, eat something good today. Jim started cooking chicken as a short-order cook in college, now he runs ADwërks, an advertising agency in Sioux Falls where he cooks up marketing communications ideas.

Spaghetti
WINE

hianti has come a long way since its role as cheap “spaghetti wine,” customarily offered in cute bottles wrapped in wicker baskets, suitable for recycling as candlesticks. What was once scorned by consumers and Italians alike is now Italy’s most drinkable (and now complex) wine offering. There’s always been more to Chianti than those wicker bottles. Chianti’s proud Tuscan heritage goes back more than 700 years. And while it’s still a pretty good spaghetti wine, Chianti in the past

generation has fully restored its luster as a serious, world-class wine, becoming one of the first Italian wine regions to earn the DOC (and later DOCG) designation. It also spawned the new and perhaps even more lustrous “Super Tuscan” category. The Chianti region spans a broad area of Tuscany in Northern Italy, from Florence to Siena and from Umbria to the sea. Chianti must include the following: from 75 percent to 100 percent Sangiovese, and up to 10 percent each of Canaiolo, other local red varieties, and/
Here’s a quick field guide to help you recognize these rare birds if you see them: • From Arezzo, Chianti Colli Aretini • From Pisa (yes, the place with the Leaning Tower), Chianti Colline Pisane • From the region near Florence, Chianti Colli Fiorentini, Chianti Montespertoli and Chianti Rufina • From near Florence and the villages Pistoia and Prato, Chianti Montalbano • From the historic region around the city of Siena on the south end of Chianti, Chianti Colli Senesi, “Chianti from the Siena hills.” (The words “Colli” and “Colline,” seen in several of the regional names, simply mean “hills.”)
or the white Trebbiano or Malvasia. (The inclusion of white grapes, once mandatory, is now optional, and the possibility of 100 percent Sangiovese without any other grapes is also a recent innovation.) Grapes grown anywhere in the region may go into basic Chianti, but only grapes from the traditional central region, between Florence and Siena, may qualify for the “Chianti Classico” designation, which also calls for slightly longer aging before release. Higher alcohol levels qualify for the title “Superiore,” and longer aging - 24 months, compared with six for Classico and five for regular Chianti - adds the title “Riserva.” Pick up a bottle of Chianti Classico Riserva, and you’re dealing with (and paying for) something with a lot more strength than a simple pizza or spaghetti wine. These are serious, world-class wines that demand cellar time to show at their mature best. In addition to the broad Chianti region and the central Classico zone, the Chianti regulations permit special regional labels for wines made from grapes grown in seven sub-regions scattered around the map of Tuscany. Some of the sub-regions are widely available, while a few are rare enough that I have yet to see them sold outside Italy.
In contrast with the kind of detailed attention that French wine villages demand in detecting and understanding their subtle differences, terroir distinctions among the sub-regions of Chianti is a little more difficult. Perhaps that will come as Chianti’s modern reputation continues to grow. For now, drink the Chianti that’s available here and as more of these sub-regions become available in the United States, we can hone our collective palates to become Chianti Consigliari. You make the spaghetti, I’ll bring the Chianti! Carpe Vino!

LIKE YOUNG ROBINS
Our Daughter Still Needs Us BY LURA ROTI
52 nest |
KNICK KNACKS OF LIFE
E
ach spring, like clockwork, a mother robin builds a nest atop our back porch light. And we get to follow the progression: First one egg, then, two…once there are four, she and her partner rarely leave the nest – except when any of us exits our home through the back door. Some years, the mother and her partner are laid back and will stay put when we go in and out. But mostly, they nervously fly off each and every time. It must be exhausting for them. And I am certain they become peeved at the Roti family. Especially our canine member, Tulip. This year’s couple let their frustration out in full force — dive bombing our golden retriever each time she went outdoors. She loved it. So, she frequently barked to be let out. Once their babies hatch, we rarely see the couple hanging out in the nest. They are too busy caring for their young brood. It’s interesting to watch them collect worms and feed the hungry babies. Following the life cycle of the back porch robin family is a fun way to engage with nature. But in the past, the engagement ends once the babies exit the nest. We’d watch the young, freckled birds cautiously stand on the nest edge; unsteady and contemplating their next move, these baby birds always remind me of Weebles Wobble toys. When they finally do leap from the nest, we would see the young robins in the yard, but I never gave much thought to how they survived postnest. And since I haven’t read up on birds, the transition from leaving their nest to adulthood has been a mystery to me. Until this summer. It just so happened that the babies decided it was time to exit the nest when we were outside doing yard work. We watched them clumsily land on our fence and then the ground. Tulip made a mad dash for one baby bird. Somehow my husband, Shon, was able to catch her before she caught the bird.
For the next two days, Tulip was on a leash when she went into the backyard. Within a day, the baby birds discovered our lilac bush and were able to keep a safe distance from the dog. I think their mother helped them navigate their way to the bush. And she and her partner have been caring for them ever since. At first, they would deliver worms to them while they sat on their roost in the lilac. But just the other day, I saw her babies following her around the yard as she collected worms. It is almost as if she’s teaching them how to survive. Makes sense. At the same time, our family was learning more about the postnest life of robins, our 11-year-old daughter, Parker, graduated from elementary school. Unlike the baby robins, our daughter is not hesitant to make the leap into middle school. I am so grateful for this. It could be because she has good friends, and they will all be joining her in sixth grade. And it could be, she’s just ready. Like the baby birds, she does still need us. Not so much to help her survive – thankfully, she is quite organized and capable – but more as her support team. During a recent dance recital, she didn’t need me to do much more than her high bun, but she wanted me to sit in her room with her and visit while she applied her stage makeup. And there have been several free evenings when she did not want to play a board game or watch a movie, she just wanted to “get comfy and visit.” I treasure these moments because visiting with Parker only happens on her time and her terms. And because we only have one child, each milestone in her life seems like a boulder. We will only experience it once. As she enters the years that will prepare her to leave our nest, I am thankful she still needs us.

“Well children checkups can be a part of your routine, and can help kids stay healthy all year long.”
ummers are always busy. Do any of us have a single weekend not booked until school begins again? Whew. Pediatricians and family medicine physicians emphasize that kids need those yearly checkups every year, as well as on-time vaccinations. Even during a busy season of swimming, vacations and other fun. Anytime is OK to get the set, but sooner is better, especially for children 11-12. They might need vaccines before middle school. You can beat the rush on sports physicals for high-schoolers now, too. “After age 2, kids need checkups once a year, and since life can get busy, getting them on the schedule soon just makes sense,” said Avera Medical Group pediatrician Kara Bruning, MD. “Well children checkups can be a part of your routine, and can help kids stay healthy all year long.”
Changing Schedules – For Everyone Bruning encourages all parents who might have “held off ” to get children in now to see their providers. “The pandemic altered almost everyone’s schedule, and that’s why getting ‘back to normal’ can include your child’s yearly checkup now,” she said. “Regular – or at least annual – checkups can ensure better outcomes for kids, and they give parents peace of mind.”
Timing of Exams and Shots The first two years of life include many milestones that providers can measure in person. “When you come in, we can make sure to cover any concerns, from looking at a rash, talking about a behavioral condition or just making sure everything’s going well,” Bruning said. “We can monitor overall health and make sure your kids are meeting all their developmental milestones.” Scheduling appointments is easy; you can make yours today. “The checkup can be a great place for moms and dads to ask questions, voice any concerns they have and get reassurance on their children. We can provide guidance for what you can expect in near future, too,” she said. Studies show checkups can also help kids become less nervous or anxious about being around the health care team.

Watercolor Blow Monsters Materials: Straws, white cardstock, googly eyes, watercolor paints, water, paintbrush, glue, black marker, and any accessories wanted for your monsters. Gather your supplies and explain to the kids what the result will be. The goal is for your child to blow through the straw when the watercolor paint is still wet on the paper, making crazy shapes that will turn into monsters with fun features added by your own little monsters. Start placing the watercolors onto the paper in front of your child
and instruct them to gently blow through their straws. Encourage them to move around the paint puddles with their straw to create uniquely blown shapes for each monster. You can also add more colors to each monster, so they have multiple hues to play around with. Once the paint is dry, supply some googly eyes and a black marker so the kids can start to design their monsters by adding fun features. You may be surprised by what some of the blown shapes can resemble. We found a seahorse, an octopus, and a grasshopper in ours. We also added yarn for some hair and traced around the shapes to add more dimension to some of the creatures. Let their imaginations run wild.

Fruity Paper Fan Materials: Colored paper in a square shape, black marker, scissors, glue, long popsicle sticks, and string. Choose which type of fruit your fan will be and select your colored paper accordingly. We chose to make a watermelon by selecting two sheets of red, which would be the main color, and one sheet each of green and pink paper. Next, if the two sheets that are the main color are not already square-shaped, cut them so that they are. From the other two colors cut out two thin strips from each sheet. Put glue along the bottom edge of a square sheet of the maincolored paper and place the strip of the outermost fruit color on top, lining it up with the bottom edge of the squared paper. Put another line of glue above the strip you just added, and place the other colored strip, slightly overlapping the outermost color below it. These strips are the skin of the fruit, which typically lightens in color as it gets closer to the inner layers. Turn the paper 180 degrees and repeat these steps so that the top and bottom of the square paper are mirroring one another. As the glue dries, draw black watermelon seeds on the main-colored paper alongside the inner strips you just applied on both the top and bottom edges, until you have 2-3 rows of seeds after the fruit’s skin layers. Next, turn the paper so the skin of the fruit is on either side instead of on the top and the bottom, then fold the paper like a fan, starting from one side of the fruit’s skin. Repeat the above steps with the other square sheet of paper. You should now have two identical fan-folded sheets of paper. Align the two at the edges, then fold them in half. Taking a piece of string or yarn, secure them together in the middle where the fold is. Glue the edges together above the string, creating a full fan with the two folded sheets of paper. The last step is gluing on your popsicle sticks. We had some that ended up being too short, so be sure to have the longer sticks for your fan. To solve our problem, we just used more string to tie two sticks together and make them longer. Glue a stick to each edge of your fan, starting where the string is located and leaving excess length at the top of each side. Let this dry completely before fanning out your paper by bringing the sticks together. You now have a handle for your fruity fan! Play around with assorted colors of paper to create various fruits for your sizzling summer days.

THESE ARE JUST SOME OF THE WONDERFUL BOOKS FOR CHILDREN WE HAVE COME ACROSS THIS MONTH. WE HOPE TO SHARE WITH YOU SOME YOU HAVE NOT SEEN BEFORE AND ALSO INTRODUCE OTHERS BEING RELEASED IN THE NEAR FUTURE. ENJOY.
Big Truck, Little Island by Chris Van Dusen When a big truck and its big load get stuck on a narrow road, traffic on the little island comes to a halt. Some cars need to go south and some have to travel north. How will Meg get to her swim meet? What about Barry’s ballet class? Luckily, the kids come up with an ingenious solution: why not just swap cars? Inspired by an incident that happened on Vinalhaven, Maine, Chris Van Dusen tells a fun tale of resourcefulness and community through clever, rhyming wordplay and whimsical illustrations, sprinkled with plenty of cars and trucks for transportation-loving readers. Ages 3 yrs - 7 yrs candlewickpress.com
‘Twas the Night Before Pride by Joanna McClintick This joyful picture-book homage to a day of community and inclusion—and to the joys of anticipation—is also a comprehensive history. With bright, buoyant illustrations and lyrical, ageappropriate rhyme modeled on “’Twas the Night Before Christmas,” it tackles difficult content such as the Stonewall Riots and the AIDS marches. On the night before Pride, families everywhere are preparing to partake. As one family packs snacks and makes signs, an older sibling shares the importance of the march with the newest member of the family. Reflecting on the day, the siblings agree that the best thing about Pride is getting to be yourself. Debut author Joanna McClintick and Pura Belpré Award– winning author-illustrator Juana Medina create a new classic that pays homage to the beauty of families of all compositions—and of all-inclusive love. Ages 4 yrs - 8 yrs candlewickpress.com
At the Pond by David Elliott When the soft pink of the dawn sun starts peeking over the pond, a new day has begun for all the animals who live in it and around its watery edges. The friendly duck family, the mysterious water striders, and the busy beaver are a few of the many fascinating and familiar animals included in this glowing poetic tribute to the lively ecosystem of the pond. A companion to In the Sea, In the Wild, On the Farm, and In the Woods, At the Pond brings readers to the pond’s sun-dappled shores, pairing David Elliott’s witty and enchanting animal poems with Amy Schimler-Safford’s luminous and evocative scenes of pond life. Back matter notes about the animals and plants will further captivate young nature lovers. Ages 3 yrs - 7 yrs candlewickpress.com
Anglerfish: The Seadevil of the Deep by Elaine M. Alexander Dive thirteen thousand feet below the ocean’s surface, where no ray of sunlight can penetrate. Resources are scarce, and fellow inhabitants scarcer. This is life in the midnight zone—life for the anglerfish, known as the Seadevil of the Deep. Still largely a mystery to scientists, the deep-sea anglerfish is a true source of fascination and awe. To some, the fish resembles a prehistoric creature forgotten by time; to others, she is the embodiment of power, grace, and grit, using her remarkable physical attributes and a talent for deception to survive one of the harshest environments on the planet.age range: Ages 4 yrs - 8 yrs candlewickpress.com

In this collection of buoyant poems filled with fun facts, young nature enthusiasts and budding gardeners are called on to help solve a mystery by the compost bin, join a Wild West–style standoff between some good bugs and a few bad ones, interview the sun to find out what happens when it drinks a glass of water, and learn the fancy names of plants to spice up dinner conversation.

Allan Wolf ’s playful poems and Daniel Duncan’s whimsically detailed, welcoming illustrations combine in a charming celebration of the many wonders and lessons to be learned from a school garden.

And when the day is over, the boy has an idea of his own about how to make his new friends’ lives even sweeter.

A Rose Named Peace How Francis Meilland Created a Flower of Hope for a World at War by Barbara Carroll Roberts From a young man’s experiments in cross-pollination to the rose that became an international symbol of hope, this gentle picture book biography, beautifully illustrated by Bagram Ibatoulline, is a quiet epic of war and peace. Francis Meilland was passionate about roses. He loved their rich perfume, their buds unfurling in the summer sun, and their petals, soft as lambs’ ears. Like his father and grandfather before him, Francis cultivated flowers on the family farm in France. In his teens, he set about grafting and experimenting, determined to create a rose no one had seen before, and as the world braced for World War II, he rushed cuttings to rose-growing friends around the globe. Six patient years later, word reached him: his rose had not only flourished; people were calling it the Peace Rose. An ideal gift for science and history buffs and for gardeners of all ages, this life story of a special flower is also a love song to living a dream from beginning to end, through sun and through storm.
