SUMMER CAMPS

Your happy campers Finding the right summer camp for your child

By Erinn Hutkin Special to The Eagle

As a mom of two in New York City, Lyss Stern knows many parents who visit summer camps a year in advance to make sure their kid is getting the right fit. Although there are still a few months left in the school year, Stern, founder of the luxury lifestyle company Divalysscious Moms and author of the book “If You Give A Mom A Martini,” said now is the time to start thinking about camps and activities that will fill the little ones’ summer schedules. In fact, she said March is “the height of when parents start to get frantic.”

‘Word of mom’

Stern said the best way to start searching for a camp is by asking other parents and friends who have older children. She said parents should talk to moms and dads at their child’s school, day care, building or neighborhood about summer camps that worked for them. “‘Word of mom’ really works the best,” Stern said. After getting recommendations, Stern said, parents should go online to learn more, make a phone call to get information or visit the camp. She said many camps even host parties or weekend events throughout the year so families can get a taste of what the facility offers.

Involve the kids Dr. Deborah Gilboa, a Pittsburghbased family practitioner, mom of four and founder of askdoctorg.com, said parents should remember they need buy-in from their child when they’re

making camp plans. During the planning phase, she suggests asking younger kids what they want to do with their summer, then presenting them with a few camp options. She said preteens should be encouraged to recruit friends to go to camp with them, which is more likely to get them excited. For high schoolers, Gilboa said parents should give guidelines – such as the number of days and hours per week they are expected to be in camp, as well as a budget – and ask their kids to find a few possibilities.

Focus on development Because the school year is so busy, Gilboa said, summer is an ideal time for parents to find camps that will help kids focus on personal development. Maybe your child is too bossy or too meek around friends, or needs to be better at working as part of a group. Maybe you feel he needs to learn more

about spirituality, or spend more time outside in nature. Gilboa advises parents to use summer camp as a way to help kids learn characteristics that will help their personal development. “This does not have to be anything negative. It can be awesome,” she said. “It’s an amazing opportunity ... to encourage them to be the people we hope they’ll be.”

Respect temperament Richard Horowitz, a Florida parent and family coach who started the company Growing Great Relationships, said while kids sometimes need a nudge to try something new, parents should be cautious about imposing their own needs on their children at camp. “You have to know and listen to your kids and know what their strengths are,” he said. “It’s in the best interest of their kids to respect their temperament.” As a father, Horowitz knows the

temptation to project your own interests on your kids. For instance, as a football lover, Horowitz pushed one of his sons into summer football camp before high school. At the end, he was crushed when his son told him he didn’t want to continue football, but his son loved music. Today, his son, Benny Horowitz, is touring the country as drummer for the punk band The Gaslight Anthem.

Honor commitment Even if your child doesn’t end up falling in love with the camp that gets picked, Horowitz feels it’s important to for kids to honor their commitment and not be allowed to quit – unless there are extreme circumstances. He said parents should remind kids that they made a commitment and focus on the positive – maybe their child made a new friend at camp or learned a new skill.

How to care for senior cats By Samantha Johnson | Special to The Eagle

As our feline friends reach their senior years (generally considered to be after age 7 or 8) their daily needs begin to change. Follow these veterinarian-approved tips to keep your senior cat healthy and happy as he ages:

Maintain veterinary care

Observe your cat

Watch his weight

Make things easy

Regular visits to the vet can help identify diseases before a cat becomes critically ill or irreversible damage is done, says Dr. Stephanie Sosniak, of the Northwoods Animal Hospital in Minocqua, Wis. Many diseases can be managed at home with medication or a change in diet.

Watch for behavioral changes, such as increased or decreased appetite, increased or decreased urine output, vomiting, weight loss, poor hair coat, irritability or an increased amount of sleep.

Obesity is one of the most common problems facing senior cats, and Sosniak recommends that senior cats be fed according to their goal body weight and health condition as directed by your veterinarian.

Your aging cat may need help in order to comfortably maneuver around your home. “Older cats may have a more difficult time climbing into or using a litter box, climbing stairs or jumping onto furniture,” says Sosniak. Try placing food, water, & the litter box in easily accessible locations.

MULE BARN BOUTIQUE

Get geared up for stock show and rodeo season at The Mule Barn Boutique By Shauna Lewis The Eagl Ea e

t’s stock show and rodeo season in Texas, and The Mule Barn Boutique in College Station and Madisonville Madison can help customers stock up on western clothing, boots and accessories. The Mule Barn Boutique in the Post Oak Mall, at the intersection of Harvey Road and Texas 6 in College Station, and the store at 115 South Madison in Madisonville Madison both carry western boots, clothing, blingy flip flops, handbags and jewelry. Owner Nancy Gilmore originally planned to keep the store in College Station for just two months after she opened it on Nov. 4, but local customers loved the shop. “Because of the great response at Christmas, we decided to stay,” she said. Gilmore, who bought The Mule Barn Boutique in March, said she is proud of the store’s friendly customer service and

unique merchandise. She said she tries to find items that people can’t find anywhere else. “It’s all got some sass in it,” Gilmore said about the store’s merchandise. “It doesn’t cost any more to buy anything unique than run-of-the-mill things.” With the Houston Live Li stock Show & Rodeo coming up from Feb. 25 to March 17 and the Brazos County Youth Live Li stock Show March 22 through March 25, among other shows and rodeos around the state, Gilmore said now is a good time to get western gear. The Mule Barn Boutique’s start The Mule Barn Boutique has changed significantly since it first opened in Madison sonville about 12 years ago, as the Kawasaki Mule Barn, then owned by Fred and Liz Henson. It served as a Kawasaki Mule and four-wheeler dealership, but also started adding a mix of other things, such as work

coats, boots and fishing lures. The Hensons in 2007 hired Gilmore as store manager over the clothing and fashion part of the business, with Billy Terry managing the motor division. di Gilmore took over ordering merchandise and treated the

store as if it were her own. Eventually, the owners sold the Kawasaki division di of the business to Terry, and about a year later, ter sold the clothing part to ter, Gilmore. It’s not the first time Gilmore has owned a boutique.

MULE BARN BOUTIQUE

In the 1980s and 1990s, she owned Nancy’s Unique Boutique, opening a store first in Madisonville Madison and then a store in the Post Oak Mall. Back in the retail business, Gilmore said she has hired a team of Mule Barn Boutique employees who truly care about people and making customers happy. Employees include her daughter Lindsey Hendaughter, dricks, who serves as manager and her mother, mother Wanda Johnson. Something special Gilmore said after she was hired as manager in 2007, she started finding a more exciting range of merchandise to add to the store. She noticed that most stores of ed the same selections offer of boots, which she didn’t like. So she looked into getting some special boots, and found what she was looking for with boots made by three boot companies in Mercedes: Anderson Bean Boot Company, Rios of Mercedes and Olathe Boot Company. Mule Barn Boutique started creating designs so the three boot companies could make custom boots for the store to sell. “W started designing “We ones that no one else had,” Gilmore said. “So we carved out a little niche with boots.” The business creates boots for groups such as the Texas Herefor ef d Association efor and Texas Rangers, and has also had them made for weddings and barbecue cook-off cook-of teams, she said. Boots made for wedding parties often include the names of the groom and bride, followed by the word “established” and the wedding date. Besides boots made by the three Mercedes companies, the store also carries several popular brands, such as Ariat, Corral, Justin, Tony Lama and Lucchese. The Mule Barn Boutique

SHOP BRAZOS .COM

also carries Gypsy Soul jewelry and flip flops, other brands of jewelry, lry men’s and women’s lry, clothing, hats and decorations such as crosses. Trunk show A trunk show will be held April 11 through April 13 at the Madisonville Madison store, during which customers can design their own boots. Customers can head into The Mule Barn Boutique to look at boots and get an idea of what they’d like befor bef e heading next door to the Texas Legends Steakhouse’s party room for the trunk show. “If you ever wondered where to find the perfect pair of boots, this is your chance,” Gilmore said. Anderson Bean Boot Company, Rios of Mercedes and Olathe Boot Company boot makers will meet with trunk show attendees and help them design their own boots. Attendees can pick out everything from the toe to the heel – including stitch patterns and leathers. There will be trunks brimming over with several thousands of samples of leathers, including hippo, elephant, zebra, bison, ostrich, shark shar and capybara. The price of boots will depend on what leathers customers pick, Gilmore said, but they can create something affo af rdable. While people are designing their boots, they can also get something to eat and drink in the restaurant. Those who would like to attend the trunk show can make an appointment from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. each day of the event, by calling the Madisonville Madison store at 936-348-2869.

SOUP’S ON

Spoon up some style

Swirls and rufﬂes Creating a beautiful yin-yang swoop is easy; the Internet offers loads of information. Start by pouring an equal amount of each soup into a bowl at the same time. The two purees should meet in a line down the center. Now lift the bowl, holding it steady and level, and swirl it gently once, then again in the same direction. You’ll see the swirl pattern take shape. To get ruffles, use a skewer to pull one color into the other. Accent the designs with diced carrot, tiny broccoli florets, shredded cheese, chopped green onion, corn kernels, nuts, crispy bacon or any of your other favorites.

Bold colors – the green of broccoli and the red-orange of sweet potato-carrot puree – make quite a splash, and these patterns are very doable.

A beautiful take on vegetable soups By Margaret Maples Special to The Eagle

It’s time to let good old reliable soup show a little pizzazz. With so many vivid veggies available, this should be a snap. Choose two boldly contrasting colors, but make sure the flavors don’t clash. Try pairing split pea and tomato, corn with pumpkin, or other family favorites. We chose broccoli and sweet potato-carrot puree. Sounds very vegetarian, you respond. But the two recipes here are built on chicken broth. If you want

vegan soup, switch to vegetable stock. And it’s easy to go the other way, toward meat. Cooked chicken, medium-dice ham and small roasted meatballs taste wonderful in these soups. Additions like those come after the basic recipe is finished. After cooking — when your home is filled with delightful aromas — comes pureeing. The designs we’re using require soups of the same consistency. You can control the texture by straining out the vegetables and pureeing them separately, then stirring in the reserved soup liquid as needed.

When you’re making soup, it just means to heat the vegetables until they release a little of their liquid. n 1 T canola oil n 1 T butter n 2/3 cup diced yellow onion n 2/3 cup diced turnips n 2/3 cup diced parsnips n 1 cup diced carrots n 4 cups chicken broth n 1 small sweet potato, roasted, peeled and diced (about 1 rounded cup) n 2 Roma tomatoes, diced

HOW-TOS

Home how-tos Prepare for spring home and yard work with these handy tips Special to The Eagle

Handyman Club of America members offer some of their home and garden tips:

Matching lock and key

How to improve your wheelbarrow

Mixing up locks and keys isn’t a problem for club member Harold Schlenker of Ashley, N.D. He colorcodes mating keys and locks with paint. You can brush or spray the paint on, but be sure to apply an exterior finish if the locks are used outdoors.

To lash down big loads, such as tree branches, grass clippings and leaves, club member Bob Rath of Brookings, Ore., installed a small cleat at each outside corner of his wheelbarrow. He attached them with machine screws and cap nuts. For big piles of loose materials, he ties a tarp over the top, which almost doubles the wheelbarrow’s capacity.

How to identify the ground plug

Easy-seal caulk

Rather than capping a silicone caulk tube after use, club member Rick Brown of Furlong, Pa., leaves a small blob at the tip to cure. When he uses the tube again, he pulls off the hardened blob to uncork the spout. Although this method isn’t suitable for longterm storage, it

works well for a few days with gun tubes and squeeze tubes.

How to avoid slipping tools

Club member Robert Medeiros of Dartmouth, Mass., uses the rubber mesh that prevents rugs from sliding to keep the jigs (featherboards, hold-downs, etc.) on his router

table and other stationary power tools from slipping. Just place a small piece of the mesh under the jig before clamping it to the surface.

The wear caused by repeatedly trying to shove the larger blade of a polarized plug into the smaller slot of an extension cord’s female plug can make it difficult to identify the larger slot. Club member Jim Butler of Knoxville, Tenn., keeps his slots straight by painting a white circle around the larger one (that’s where the white ground wire is connected) when the cord is new. This makes it easy to see which slot should receive the wider plug blade.

HOW-TOS

Making padded pliers

How to clean putty knives

Tip for a sturdier pegboard

How to avoid losing screws

Club member Jeffrey Barger of Vandergrift, Pa., has a clever method to keep his pegboard hooks in place that also denies spiders and other bugs a nesting spot behind the board. He simply fills the space between the board and wall with a sheet of 1-inchthick foam rubber. The foam compresses around the hooks and prevents them from falling out.

Tip for measuring garden chemicals

To mix lawn and garden chemicals accurately without a mess, club member Patrick Brown of Bartlett, Tenn., always puts water in his pump sprayer before adding the chemicals. He points out that many chemicals will foam if you pour water on top of them, making it difficult to judge the water level in the tank. The wrong concentration can be ineffective — or worse, kill what you were trying to save.

Rather than throw away his gunked-up putty knives, club member Lance Balwin of Prescott, Ariz., keeps the blades clean of paint and putty buildup with an old chisel dedicated to this purpose. He uses an inexpensive chisel that’s past its useful life for woodworking but can still take the sharp edge necessary for the job. Only a stiff, sharp blade is really effective; cleaning with another putty knife or a razor-blade knife is usually unsatisfactory.

Thursday, February 21, 2013____________shopbrazos.com____________The Eagle

Club member Frank May of Kansas City, Mo., reasoned that if clamps and vises can have jaw pads, why not pliers? To prevent the pliers’ jaws from marring delicate parts, he covers them with plastic shrink tubing normally used to cover wiring. Shrink tubing is available in several diameters and lengths (rolls) at home centers and electrical supply stores. Use a diameter that’s slightly larger than the jaws, cut a piece to length and slip it on, then use a heat gun to shrink the tubing.

SHOP BRAZOS .COM

To prevent short workpieces from falling through the jaws of his Workmate, club member Don Ayers of Houston installed 2x6 stock supports on the bottom of one of the jaws. The supports have slotted screw holes so they can be retracted behind the jaw faces when not needed. Fender washers between the screw and supports allow you to tighten the screws so the supports are snug but can still slide.

Easy labeling for electrical sources

Faced with a drawer full of low-voltage power supplies for various household gadgets, club member Herb Sauter of Ocala, Fla., labeled them for easy identification. He applied a piece of white tape to the front of each power supply bearing the name of its mating gadget. This prevents a potential mismatch that could ruin the electronic device or cause a fire.

PET PROJECT

Thursday, February 21, 2013____________shopbrazos.com____________The Eagle

SHOP BRAZOS .COM

Know what to ask the veterinarian

Pet project

When you take your pet to the veterinarian, you probably have two goals in mind: Getting your pet the best treatment possible and staying within your budget. A routine examination, in addition to detecting illnesses in the early stages, can be an ideal opportunity to learn how to prevent illness and keep your pet healthy. At the vet’s office, ask these questions: n What’s the best food for my pet? Animals are similar to humans when it comes to staying healthy. Health begins with proper nutrition. n What foods can be toxic for my pet? Chocolate and raisins, for example, are among several foods that

dogs should never eat. n How much food should my pet eat? Overeating and under-eating are not just human problems. Pets, however, must rely on humans to manage their eating. n How often should I bathe my pet? No one likes a smelly animal. Your vet can help you manage animal cleanliness. Make sure you inquire about washing specific areas, such as ears and eyes. n What allergies are common to my pet and what can I do about them? Dog illnesses — itching, watery eyes, sneezing, vomiting or diarrhea — can be the result of allergies. Your vet can help you prevent some pet allergies before they occur. n How do I get rid of fleas? Fleas, in addition to being a nuisance, can cause serious illness. Vets can

suggest prescription and over-thecounter remedies.

Pet illness

Since animals can’t talk, they need someone to communicate for them when they’re ill. You are your pet’s best friend, so learn what to communicate to the vet. Try the following questions: n Why does my pet ... ? Be sure to specify exactly what it is your pet is doing and find out why. Many pet illnesses can be prevented with a little bit of advice from the doctor. n What can I do to prevent this from happening again? This should always be a follow-up question once you find out why your pet is sick. n How much is this going to cost? n Are alternative treatments available?

Finding a vet

The most important questions you can ask are the ones you ask before you choose a vet. n What are your procedures if there’s an emergency? An afterhours emergency? Don’t wait for Fido or Fluffy to get injured before finding out what to do. n Are other doctors on duty? Having multiple doctors on hand decreases the waiting time for emergency visits. n How long have you been practicing veterinary medicine? n Do you offer payment plans for surgeries and other costly procedures? Most vets will work with you in regards to payments. n Are you accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association?
