PUBLISHER’S LETTER Dear Readers, I have been reminded how strong our community over the past few weeks. One of our neighbors, friends and growing businesses in Asheboro has been the target of a series of vicious attacks. Bia’s Gourmet Hardware on Worth and Fayetteville Street has had their front windows broken on three different occasions over the summer, the most recent attack occurring just last week. The strength of character from our community leaders, and the diligent investigation and search for those responsible has been nothing short of amazing. The first attack could have been random violence, the second even explained away as someone who thought, “Hey, I got lucky the first time, let’s do that again.” But the third attack, just days after the windows and lettering on the outside had been replaced shows this attack is specifically targeted to a family who has pledged to help Asheboro grow and prosper into the next decade, and to see this willful and hateful violence has made me angry and sad. The beautiful thing is they are only hurting themselves. They will be caught, they will go to jail, they will suffer for a long time after they are caught. But, as this community has shown, we stand behind this business, and support them in their growth and their pain. Many people reached out with offers of help, Jon Thomas of Thomas Tire started a GoFundME to help offset the insurance deductible and to raise money for a reward for information leading to the arrest of the person or persons responsible. People all over the community gave large and small amounts, and many more came through the doors to eat and drink in support. This person hasn’t damaged this business, on the contrary they have gone a long way toward cementing the relationship between Bia and Eric Rich and Asheboro and Randolph County. We support them 110% and wish them every success. To everyone that has donated, patronized the restaurant, or helped in the search and investigation into these acts, I salute you, because together ... WE ARE ASHEBORO!! I stole a quote from my friend Joel McClosky of Four Saints Brewing, who said it more eloquently than I can,
“We are stronger together. We take care of our own. We fight for each other. We are family”

nce upon a time, in a dark dark wood, there was a place where things go bump in the night ...
Get ready for a fright-filled experience when Woods of Terror begins its 25th season on Friday, September 23. “If you’ve never experienced Woods of Terror, then you’re in for a treat this year with a lot of new attractions,” said owner and monster manager Eddie McLaurin. “This season opens with a professionally designed ‘Escape Room’, and our very own ‘Hellevator’.” The Woods of Terror has been named as one of America’s most popular haunts, and this year, patrons can be frightened throughout an extended season that runs through November. Gates open at 6 pm, ticket booth opens at 6:30 pm, and the show starts at 7 pm. “This year, to enhance a guest experience, you can upgrade

by buying a glow necklace to have an up-close personal and full contact haunt,” said McLaurin. “The monsters will be able to touch as long as you have a glow necklace.” McLaurin offers some tips on how to make your scary visit go smoother: • Saturdays are usually the busiest nights of the week, and lines at Woods of Terror will be much longer on the last two weekends in October. An All Access Pass will get you into attractions must faster. • Individual tickets can be purchased in advance,and admission to the Escape Room is extra. We will not have group sales this year.
• Admission at the box office is cash only. There is an ATM on-site. • The monsters (actors) will not touch you, however, they do get very close. You might brush up against their costumes or props, and you will be in close proximity with some of the sets. • Woods of Terror is recommended for adults and teens, but younger children may only attend if accompanied by a parent. Carrying infants through Woods of Terror is NOT recommended. There are no special prices for children and no refunds if anyone decides not to finish the haunt. • There are emergency exits at each attraction in case you want to escape the thrills and chills prematurely. - Woods of Terror is wheelchair accessible, but please notify the box office in advance of any special needs your party might require. • Fog and scent machines are used throughout Woods of Terror. Should you find the smoke or odors too intense, there are emergency exits throughout the attraction. • Woods of Terror is not recommended for visitors who are pregnant, have heart conditions, or are in generally poor health. • Woods of Terror remains open during misting rain, but closes during heavy rains. To check on weather conditions,
we recommend you call our office at 336-286-9396 or visit our website. (Take out call us) • Woods of Terror hires Guilford County Sheriffs as well as Guilford County medical personnel • We do not allow foul language, pushing, or vulgar behavior. Weapons of any kind, alcohol, or any illegal substance are also prohibited on site. Violations of these rules will result in the guest being asked to leave without a refund. • Woods of Terror sells some prepackaged foods and non alcoholic beverages. Anyone showing up intoxicated will be denied entry into the attractions. • NO photography of any kind is allowed in the haunts. Haunted houses are dark and, as such, our guests and our actors must adjust to the low light. When you flash your camera you’re not only ruining other patron’s experience, but you’re making it difficult for our actors to see. Flashlights and laser pointers are also not allowed. There will be plenty of opportunities to take photos in the midway with some of the monsters as well as some photo ops. However no phones or photography are allowed on the trail.

D
affie H. Garris, vice president for administrative services at Randolph Community College since July 2006, has been appointed to serve on the North Carolina Student Success Center Advisory Board.
In January 2016, the Jobs for the Future (JFF) announced that North Carolina will be one of five states to launch Student Success Centers, supported by a $2.5 million investment from The Kresge Foundation and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The North Carolina Community College System is receiving $250,000 a year for the next two years for the project. JFF is a national nonprofit that works to ensure educational and economic opportunity for all. The new North Carolina Student Success Center will serve as a resource hub for shared learning, technical assistance, idea generation, and policy advocacy for all 58 colleges to advance, scale, and sustain statewide student success and completion efforts. The 19-member Advisory Board, made up of representatives of partner organizations such as the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction, the UNC System, and the North Carolina Association of Workforce Development Boards, will guide the Center and ensure it is successful and sustainable.

Another RCC representative on the Advisory Board, student Kirsten Stovall, is serving in her role as president of the North Carolina Community College Comprehensive Student Government Association. The Advisory Board will meet quarterly. Garris, who started out as an instructor, said she is excited to be a part of this board because it is focused on student success. “The student side is so important to me,” she said. Garris taught for eight years at Montgomery Community College and served as a division chair before becoming vice president of administrative services at MCC for three and half years. Garris earned a B.S. in Business Management and a M.S. in Business Education from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

ASK THE EXPERT YOUR EYES
What is Blepharoplasty?
A
blepharoplasty, or eyelid lift, is surgery to remove excess skin and fat from the upper or lower eyelids. This procedure restores the area around the eyes and improves peripheral vision.
We all have fat around our eyes to protect the eyeball in case of trauma. This fat “cushions the blow� and is not something that can be lost with diet. As we age the skin around the eyes stretches and loses its elastic ability. As a result, excess fat may gather above and below your eyelids, causing sagging eyebrows, droopy upper lids and bags under your eyes. These changes are mostly determined by genetics and age, but can be modified by smoking, diet and sun exposure.
Besides making you look older, severely sagging skin around your eyes can reduce your side vision (peripheral vision), especially the upper and outer parts of your field of vision. Blepharoplasty can reduce or eliminate these vision problems and make your eyes appear younger and more alert. Blepharoplasty is done on an outpatient basis. Prior to the procedure each patient will have a consultation with the eye surgeon to discuss their goals and expectations from surgery. A thorough examination of the eyes will be conducted and measurements will be taken. Pre-operative photographs and visual field testing may also be performed to determine medical necessity for the procedure.
Jeffrey White, M.D., Ophthalmic Plastic Surgeon, received his specialized fellowship in oculoplastic surgery and orbital oncology from the University of North Carolina. He is certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology and is also a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology. Call 336-629-1451or go to carolinaeye.com.
20
Asheboro Magazine, Issue 69
Upper blepharoplasty is done under local anesthesia so the patient may be somewhat awake or may have IV sedation, but they will be able to cooperate with the surgeon during the procedure. Typically the procedure takes 30 minutes. Lower lid blepharoplasty may take slightly longer to perform. Following the procedure, patients are able to go home with ice packs to use on to the eyelids for the first 48 hours. An antibiotic ointment is applied to the incisions three to four times a day until the sutures fall out, which is usually after about 10 days. Most patients experience some swelling and bruising which typically worsens over the first 48 hours, and then improves daily. Swelling should be almost completely resolved two weeks after surgery. Patients may use their eyes normally in the post-operative period. There may be some minor blurring of vision which is usually caused by the ointment getting in the eyes. Most patients can resume to normal activities within a few days. Established in 1977, Carolina Eye Associates is on the largest eye care facilities in the Southeast. The practice provides a full range of quality medical and surgical eye care services.

ASK THE EXPERT YOUR TAXES
Don’t Fall Prey to IRS Phone Scams
A
s the leaves fall and we begin to prepare our vehicles and homes for fall we must be aware of a few things that can affect us as this year starts winding down. Our withholdings and contributions may need to be adjusted to fit any changes that may have occurred this year. Just as important we must always be alert to scammers who are diligent in obtaining your personal information or seeking anyone willing to transfer cash. First of all major things such as getting married, divorced, birth of a child or the addition of a second job can affect your possible refund. When any of these changes happen adjusting our paychecks are usually the last thing we are thinking about. If any of these circumstances have affected you then you will need to fill out forms to reflect the change. It’s better to go ahead and make the adjustment now to avoid any loss of refund. I’m sure you would rather plan for your refund now instead of being unpleasantly surprised when you file your taxes. As you may know, scammers are hard at work and have become a nuisance, especially if you are one of the thousands who have received their call pretending to be the IRS.Yes, the call threatens that if you don’t pay a certain amount of money they will issue a warrant for your arrest. This call can be scary even for someone who
is trained and knows it is not real. The IRS has issued many warnings that they will always send you a letter in the mail. The IRS will never threaten with calling the police if you do not act immediately. Any time you receive a threatening or harassing phone call seeking money immediately hang up and notify the authorities. Another scam is to steal your identity. Scammers are very clever in obtaining your information. If you receive a phone call or email and the person wants to verify your identity and personal information do not respond. They may even know some of your personal information but again do not fall victim. The devastation of identity theft may not be evident for several months. These scammers target everyone so we must be vigilant in spreading the word so our neighbors, parents, and friends are not victims in this scheme. The IRS has been working diligently to help fight identity theft resulting in fraudulent refunds and identity theft.

ZOO ZEAL
Female Bongo Antelope and her Newborn Calf born at the NC Zoo
Exciting Summer at the North Carolina Zoo by Lane Ragsdale
A
visit from the Executive Director of AZA and the birth of a baby bongo highlighted an exciting summer at the Zoo. Despite record heat, the zoo maintained outstanding attendance and sold out rides of the first-year Zoofari experience.
The executive director of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, Kris Vehrs paid her first visit to Asheboro in 20 years, touring the world’s largest zoo and meeting with the many varied employees including her friend and colleague, Zoo Director, Pat Simmons. She saw firsthand what the Zoo is doing to address its maintenance backlog and emphasized that the Zoo is a 365 day operation. The areas that guests don’t see are as critical in their upkeep and revitalization as the public areas and require constant care and upgrading. The Zoo was most honored by her visit and her expertise. The Zoo is also excited to announce that a critically endangered female baby bongo was recently born at the
24
Asheboro Magazine, Issue 69
North Carolina Zoo. The calf is the first of its kind born at the Zoo, with another anticipated soon.
Newborn Bongo Calf at the Taronga Zoo, 2015
The North Carolina Zoo obtained two female bongos in 2009 and eventually received a male in 2015 for breeding. The Zoo’s bongos are part of the Watani Grassland Reserve exhibit, but are currently being housed off-exhibit for breeding management. The herd will be back in the habitat in the Spring of 2017 to ensure the calves are healthy and the herd is protected from inclement winter weather. The North Carolina Zoo manages a small herd of Eastern (or Mountain) bongo. The managed captive population of bongo in North American zoos consists of only about 160 animals in 37 facilities accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), along with one non-AZA-member
facility. The Eastern bongo is listed on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red list as “Critically Endangered” and the estimated population in the wild was 200 or below in 2008. This isolated subspecies has declined severely and is only located in four locations in the mountains of Kenya. The ranges for wild bongo populations have shrunk in size due to habitat loss for agriculture and uncontrolled timber cutting. They are also under pressure from poaching for their meat. The bongo is an herbivorous antelope that is mostly nocturnal. They are found in the tropical jungles of central Africa among the dense undergrowth up to an altitude of 13,000 feet. The bongo is among the largest of the African forest antelope species with males that can weigh over 800 pounds. They are characterized by a striking reddish-brown coat, black and white markings and white-yellow stripes. Both sexes have long, heavy, slightly spiraled horns. Bongos are mostly seen in small groups. Males are typically solitary and groups of females and their young usually number six to eight.

Dr. Julie Pack, director of secondary education for Asheboro City Schools, said that once the students are exposed to available careers in health care, “we must have a clear plan of study ready for them.” She called these plans “9-14 pathways” because they take students from the 9th grade on into a 13th or 14th year in community colleges. She said these pathways will include
nursing, medical assisting, phlebotomy, radiography, human services, and emergency medical services. She noted that the pathways will include work-place learning experiences so the students will learn early whether or not they are suited for a certain career. Suzanne Rohrbaugh, vice president for instructional services at RCC, said, “These are very intentionally designed pathways,” noting that many students get to college and still don’t know what they want to do. “The purpose is to help our students know early on that ‘this is what I want to do and this is how I can get there’.” Dr. Terry Worrell, superintendent of Asheboro City Schools, and Dr. Stephen Gainey, superintendent of the Randolph County School System, both spoke in support of the initiative, and introduced several members of their boards of education who were in attendance. “Public education is not about competition,” said Dr. Gainey, who said the collaboration is for the benefit of the county as a whole.

Art Wall Project Features Third Visual Artist, Luis Figueroa at Four Saints Brewing Company
T
he Four Saints Brewing Company’s inaugural Art Wall Project continues with the third selected visual artist and Asheboro resident, Luis Figueroa. Each of the five honored artists are tasked with creating an art project to be exhibited on a 12 feet wide by 4.5 feet high wall in the Four Saints Brewing Company’s tasting room. Luis’ project is an expressive, urban, mixed media self-portrait of life and death inspired by the juxtaposition of geometric patterns and gestural drawing. The finished project is to span three canvases (also known as a triptych). The community is invited to meet and interact with Luis during his public work session on Sunday, November 20 between 7:30 p.m. -- 9 p.m. at the brewery’s tasting room located at 218 South Fayetteville Street. Luis’ project will be on exhibit December 1, 2016 -- February 28, 2017. A public art reception is scheduled for Friday, December 9 between 5:30 p.m. -- 7 p.m. At the conclusion of his exhibit in February 2017, Luis plans to donate the proceeds from the sale of his artwork to benefit the Randolph County Animal Shelter. All events for this third Art Wall Project are free to attend. For more information, contact Four Saints Brewing Company’s Art Wall Project Manager, Les Caison III at artwall@foursaintsbrewing.com .

Asheboro Magazine, Issue 69
About the artist: At age of three Luis Figueroa and his family moved from Mexico to Asheboro, North Carolina. For the last 23 years Luis has concentrated exploring creative connections with nature whether in visual art classes at Southwest Randolph High School or at Appalachian State University where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Studio Art. When not creating art, Luis enjoys spending time with his family and exploring outside. During the summer of 2016 he received much inspiration camping, hiking, and star-gazing during a trip to the area of Tierra Blanca, Mexico. He cites the urban muralist and painter, Nosego and comic book art as significant creative influences. The Four Saints Brewing Company Art Wall Project is Luis’ first public commission. View more of Luis’ artwork at: www.LuisFigueroa.bigcartel.com. About the project: The inaugural Art Wall Project selected five visual artists to create separate compelling works of art on-site utilizing a designated 12 feet long and 4.5 feet high blank wall in the Four Saints Tasting Room. Each of the five works of art will be on display for a period of three months. The complete Art Wall Project, with rotating art installations began March 2016 and concludes October 2017. Each artist will be honored with a public meet-and-greet reception. A goal of the project is to offer insight and foster dialogue between the local community and the regional visual artists. As an added bonus, each artist’s designs are featured on limited edition merchandise to commemorate their project. These items will be available for sale to the public.

AT THE YMCA
Randolph-Asheboro YMCA to participate in the SEL in YMCA Afterschool Project
T
he Randolph-Asheboro YMCA will have a new focus on social-emotional learning for the children participating in the After School Fun Club during the 2016-2017 program year. The SocialEmotional Learning (SEL) in YMCA Afterschool Project, a pilot initiative with the Y, will strive to help youth develop social-emotional skills critical for success in classroom and careers through implementation of high-quality programming and professional development of the staff serving the program. As part of this initiative, the Randolph-Asheboro YMCA is one of 30 sites nationwide selected to pilot the project this year. Studies show that high-quality afterschool programs that provide young people with the opportunities to develop social-emotional competencies can be critical to success in school and life . As part of this project, the staff at the Randolph-Asheboro YMCA will be provided with tools to assess the social-emotional competencies of participants and program quality, and resources to improve those areas throughout the program year. It is expected that providing staff with these tools and resources will lead to positive changes in staff practices, which can ultimately impact participants’ social-emotional development. The SEL in YMCA Afterschool project has learned valuable lessons from other national initiatives that have focused on developing the social-emotional competencies of afterschool program participants. For example, the Achievement Gap Afterschool Program (AG ASP) has demonstrated success in improving SEL and interim academic indicators in thousands of children since its implementation in 2012. Over the course of the past 3 years, returning program participants have shown consistent, significant growth in social-emotional learning. Further, the young people who participated in the 2015-16 program year demonstrated overall significant
improvement in social-emotional learning, as well as in the eight components of SEL . Moreover, there were significant gains in school attachment, school conduct, and self-efficacy, which are used as interim academic indicators until standardized test data can be collected and analyzed. Based on recent research , it is believed that the increase in young people’s social-emotional competencies as well as the interim academic indicators will lead to improvement in their academic achievement, as measured by standardized tests. The Y is committed to nurturing the potential of every child and teen and it is expected that this project will serve as a pathway to focus on developing staff and providing them with the tools and resources they need to support the social-emotional development of the young people who participate in afterschool programs at the Y. 1

Owner, di’lishi Frozen Yogurt Bar I have a cross-stitch hanging in my house that perfectly sums up how my life began, and it says, “I wasn’t born in North Carolina – but I got here as fast as I could!” My parents, both born and raised near the coast of NC, ended up in the Midwest after my father got hired as a salesman with B.B. Walker Shoe Co. and was sent to win Chicago over with his sample cases brimming over with work boots stitched right here on Dixie Drive. When I was 2 months old, daddy got a promotion and relocated our family of 5 to Asheboro where he and Mama promptly built a house and still live there to this day. I have always loved Asheboro with all my heart - and even after married life moved me away for several years, God’s providence brought me back following the death of my first husband, Rick Peddycord, in 1997. The way this community wrapped its arms around my family after Rick died – well, I’ve never known such love and care, and it has been the catalyst for pretty much everything I’ve invested my energy in since that point.
Marlo Francis
I emerged from that time in my life knowing that at some point, I wanted to do something to give back to Randolph County and its residents.Years later, when the fro-yo craze began blazing across the country, I loved the self-serve idea, but knew that Asheboro probably wouldn’t get one of the chain models until it had been around the globe and back – so I decided that Asheboro deserved one of these cutting-edge eateries while the concept was still fresh and new - so with the support of my second husband, Steve, and all of my family and friends – my opportunity for that “something”, turned out to be completely di’lishi! I built di’lishi to be good for the body, the environment and the community – and the message that matters most to my heart is that our residents feel our commitment to not only what we serve – but to WHO we serve. With every cause our customers help us give back to through my “fro yo’self into our community” program – they help me wrap my arms back around the town that I have loved all of my life – and together, we make a difference, because … I am Asheboro.

RCC Opens New Cosmetology Center on Asheboro Campus
R
andolph Community College will unveil another amazing example of the value of retrofitting vs. new construction when it opens its new Cosmetology Center for classes later this month. Most RCC courses start Monday, Aug. 15, but Cosmetology students will begin on Aug. 30 to allow RCC staff to complete the move and a state inspection, according to Suzanne Rohrbaugh, vice president for

instructional services. Like its Continuing Education and Industrial Center neighbor, the 10,865-square-foot facility at 503 Industrial Park Avenue on the Asheboro Campus has been transformed from an old factory/warehouse building into a dynamic, beautiful learning environment. The new facility includes 44 student styling stations, 10 shampoo stations, 16 hair dryers, separate facial and

and around 17 students in the Manicuring/ Nail Technology certificate program. The Cosmetology program offers an associate in applied science degree, diploma, and certificate with both fall and spring admissions available. Coble said new training guidelines allow the first-year students to move onto the client floor earlier as they qualify for specific services.

waxing rooms, a manicure /pedicure area featuring massaging pedicure chairs, and three classrooms. The building is the old Bost Neckware Company production facility. From the larger, modern waiting area to the expanded practice lab with its own dedicated shampoo bowls and dryers to the upgraded utility area that houses an industrial gas towel dryer and a looped hot water system that can pump 291 gallons an hour, RCC’s Cosmetology students can train for their chosen profession in an inviting, upscale atmosphere. The students also have a roomy breakroom with individual lockers and Wi-Fi availability. The peacock-themed color scheme was chosen from a variety of student-submitted design ideas, according to Cindi Goodwin, director of facilities operations for RCC. The student, Kimberly Johnson, who graduated in December 2015, also proposed a quote from 13th-century Persian poet Rumi for the lobby wall. “Let the beauty of what you love be what you do,” is mounted in acrylic on the wall above the reception desk. The color scheme is carried throughout including stained concrete floors with a Mica-Flex decorative floor coating of blended mica flakes topped with a durable epoxy. Cosmetology department head Robin Coble is expecting an outstanding instructional year with between 1520 new Cosmetology students, two in Cosmetology Instructor training,
The $1,850,000 facility was funded by the Randolph County-cent tax referendum. Smith Sinnett Architecture of Raleigh was the architect, and Garanco Inc., based out of Pilot Mountain, was the general contractor.
Randolph Community College’s Cosmetology program complies with the rules and regulations of the North Carolina Board of Cosmetic Arts Examiners (www.nccosmeticarts.com). The salon opened for services to the public on Wednesday, Aug. 31. The salon hours will be 8 a.m.-12:15 p.m. on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. On Saturday mornings, customers must check-in between 8 and 9 a.m. to be served.

RECIPES

hether you are a fan of “pumpkin-spced” anything or not, you can’t deny how delicious recipes made with pumpkin are. It makes me think of Fall, cool nights and warm days, breathtaking scenery painted in unbelievable colors, and followed by my favorite holiday of all - Halloween! Whether you eat your pumpkin, or carve it - enjoy the Fall!!
Pumpkin Pancakes 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup 1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder ½ teaspoon baking soda ¼ teaspoon fine salt 1 cup buttermilk
¼ cup pure pumpkin puree 1 large egg 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest Unsalted butter, melted for the skillet plus more for serving
Directions 1. Combine 1 cup of the maple syrup and ½ teaspoon of the pumpkin pie spice in a small pot. Bring to simmer over medium heat. Remove the heat and set aside. 2. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and the remaining 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice in a large bowl. In a separate bowl whisk together the buttermilk, pumpkin puree, egg, vanilla, orange zest, and the remaining 2 tablespoons maple syrup. Whisk the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. 3. Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Dip a paper towel in melted butter and wipe it on the bottom of the skillet to lightly grease. For each pancake, spoon a scant ¼ cup of batter onto the prepared skillet. Cook until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat, buttering the skillet between batches. 4. Serve topped with the spiced maple syrup and butter.
Pumpkin Soup 2 sugar pumpkins (2 1/4 cups (450 g) pumpkin puree) 2 green onion, diced 3 cloves garlic, minced (1 1/2 Tbsp or 9 g)
2 cups (480 ml) vegetable broth 1 cup (240 ml) light coconut milk (or sub other non-dairy milk with varied results)
Directions 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. Using a sharp knife, cut off the tops of two sugar pumpkins and then halve them. Use a sharp spoon to scrape out all of the seeds and strings. Brush the flesh with oil and place face down on the baking sheet. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a fork easily pierces the skin. Remove from the oven, let cool peel away skin and set aside. 3. In a large saucepan over medium heat add 1 Tbsp olive oil, onion and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly browned and translucent. Turn down heat if cooking too quickly. Add remaining ingredients, including the pumpkin, and bring to a simmer. 4. Transfer soup mixture to a blender or use an emulsion blender to puree the soup. If using a blender, place a towel over the top of the lid before mixing to avoid any accidents. Pour mixture back into pot. Continue cooking over medium-low heat for 5-10 minutes and taste and adjust seasonings as needed.

Pumpkin Cheesecake Pumpkin Spice Crust 1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (roughly 12 whole graham crackers) 1 tbsp sugar 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice use this recipe to make your own 6 tbsp unsalted butter melted Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake Filling 24 oz cream cheese (3 packages) room temperature 1 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
15 oz pumpkin puree (1 can) 4 large eggs 1/4 cup greek yogurt plain or vanilla 2 tbsp all-purpose flour 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice use this recipe to make your own 1/4 tsp salt 1 tbsp vanilla extract Caramel Drizzle (optional) 11 oz caramels (1 bag of wrapped candies) 1/2 cup evaporated milk
Directions For the Pumpkin Spice Crust 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 2. In a small bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. Add melted butter to bowl and stir until all ingredients are damp and lightly clumping. 3. Pour pumpkin spice crust mix in the bottom of a springform pan. Use your hands to firmly press mixture to the bottom of the pan and about 1/2 inch up the sides. If needed, use the back of a spoon to smooth everything out. Place plan in the oven and bake for 8 minutes. Remove pan and place on a wire rack to cool. Let crust cool completely before adding filling, about 30 minutes. For the Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake Filling 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F again (if needed). 2. Using a stand mixer (or a hand mixer + large bowl), add cream cheese and light brown sugar. Beat on low speed until fluffy and there are no more clumps, about 5 minutes. Set aside. 3. In another large bowl, whisk together (do not use mixer) pumpkin puree, eggs, greek yogurt, flour, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla. 4. Mix until just combined; mixing the eggs too much can result in air bubbles in the cheesecake, which can cause the surface to crack while baking. 5. Slowly add the pumpkin mixture in the bowl with the cream cheese, then set mixer speed to low. As before, mix only until just combined. Run a spatula along the edges of the bowl to ensure everything gets incorporated. 6. Pour cheesecake mix in the prepared springform pan. Mixture should almost completely fill the pan, leaving about a 1/2 inch rim around the top. 7. Place the springform pan in the oven and bake for 1 hour. 8. When done, turn off the oven and prop the oven door open with a wooden spoon. Allow cheesecake to sit in the oven for another 45 minutes. 9. When finished, remove cake from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack. 10. Wrap the top of the cake with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours before serving. For the Caramel Drizzle 1. In a small sauce pan over medium-low heat, add caramels and evaporated milk. Cook until caramels have melted and sauce is smooth, whisking frequently. Allow sauce to cook for 1 additional minute, then remove from heat. 2. Allow sauce to cool for at least 20 minutes before using. 3. When ready to serve, drizzle caramel sauce on slices of cheesecake. If desired, sprinkle with a bit more pumpkin pie spice and add a dollop of whipped cream on top. www.asheboromagazine.com

Three NC Visual Artists Celebrate The Art of Collaboration with New Exhibition “Necro Nectar”
W
hat happens when the spirit of collaborative visual artwork is summoned from the netherworld? The answer may be found on the walls at Delurk Gallery. The artist run collective and venue often features the creatives works several artists make together. The gallery located at 207 W. 6th Street in the heart of the arts district in downtown Winston-Salem has operated for almost five years and often cultivates collaborations among their members and guest artists.
Caison III (Asheboro), and Lye Lawrence (Mooresville) to join forces and explore a darker Halloween theme. The result? The three artists created three painted panels filled with depictions of monsters, black cats, and other-worldly compositions. Each artist is known for a distinct style. Lye creates colorful ink and mixed media botanical creatures. Les’ sharp graphic line and layered paint make playful figures. Dane often paints realistic zombie portraits. “You couldn’t pick a more diverse grouping of techniques -- and that’s where the For an October 2016 exhibition the gallery invited North magic begins. When we met up and began working on all Carolina artists Dane Walters (Winston-Salem), Les three canvases together, we quickly realized an enjoyable overlap of process and approach” says, Caison. “Effective collaboration encourages a group to work together towards a common goal. Our goal is to offer frightfully enjoyable artwork for others to consider.” The exhibit is titled “Necro Nectar” -- a nod to the aforementioned zombies, botanical references, and skeletons. Each artist also created their own fresh body of artwork separately, but in a similar vein of the three collaborative pieces. All the work, about 35 pieces altogether almost fill the gallery for the October exhibition. A free artist reception is scheduled for Friday, October 7th from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. as part of WinstonSalem’s First Friday Art Walk.
