City summer work begins

Angie Mindus photo

WLSS grad Matina Durfeld and her date Jeremy Kowai head to dry grad celebrations as part of the Dry Grad Parade Saturday evening.

It's that time of year again.

The City of Williams Lake will be replacing water service and valve infrastructure components on Pigeon Avenue between 11th Avenue and 12th Avenue, and on 3rd Avenue between Oliver Street and Cameron Street beginning July 3rd.

Construction is expected to take several weeks. As a result there will be disruptions in water supply to properties and traffic movements along Pigeon Avenue.

Work on Pigeon Avenue will take place between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m., and work on 3rd Avenue will take place between 6:30 p.m. and 8 a.m.

All traffic detours

and road closures will be signed appropriately. Extra care will be required by all vehicles using the affected streets and the neighboring streets during construction to ensure the safety of crews and the public.

The City may have to close entire blocks during the construction.

“The infrastructure in this area of the City is 40 years old and older. Changing water service saddles, sanitary sewer service connections, and storm drainage is a must to ensure the longevity of these systems as well as the road systems above them,” says Acting

Mayor Sue Zacharias.

“The City aims to replace infrastructure before it fails to ensure that services are always delivered to residents.”

As much notice as possible will be given to each of the property owners regarding disruptions in water service.

The City of Williams Lake apologizes in advance for any inconveniences this project may cause to the motoring public and property owners. For more information, please contact the City of Williams Lake’s Water and Waste Division at 250 392-1785.

After being an integral apart of the Williams Lake Fire Department for the last 37 years, the time has come for beloved Fire Chief Randy Isfeld to hang up his hat.

“It took forever, but it was just yesterday,” Isfeld, 65, says of his long career with the local department.

“I feel very satisfied.

I’ve had a wonderful career. This has been my family for the past 37 years. That’s going to be the tough part -- I’m not looking forward to that.”

Isfeld’s last official day with the department will be in August, however with holidays due, it’s unlikely the community will see Randy on another fire call past June.

In a career that’s spanned three-and-ahalf decades in the small, tight-knit community of Williams Lake, Isfeld reflects on having one very close call with death in the AVCO explosion years ago, and being witness to lives spared while other lives were lost over the course of his career.

“You remember them all,” he says of working as a first responder at some tragic scenes.

“They stay with you -- all you can do is tell yourself you’ve done the best you could. I know I’ve always tried to do the right thing.”

It was a career in retail that brought Isfeld to Williams Lake in the first place back in the mid-1970s. Isfeld grew up on the Island and went to high school in Vancouver before finding his way to rural

Randy Isfeld plans to spend lots of time with his family after retiring from the Williams Lake Fire Department.

Williams Lake working for the Fields department store.

He said he knew immediately after signing up as volunteer fireman with the local department that he had found his calling.

“I absolutely loved it.

It’s been the best career choice I could have ever made.”

In 1988, Isfeld took his first paid position as the City’s Fire Prevention Training Officer, and started longtime friendships and close working relationships with then Fire Chief Dale Moon, and the many other fire fighters.

It was a fateful day in 1993 a few years later while on the job as Deputy Fire Chief that Isfeld was badly injured and never again able to work as a hands-on firefighter.

“We got the call at 6 a.m. that smoke was coming out the third floor of the old AVCO

building,” remembers Isfeld, who along with five other firefighters gained entry to the building and were fighting it from the inside.

“What we didn’t know is that the building was a balloon-style structure.”

Isfeld said in that type of structure there are large, interconnected cavities between the walls and floors, where heat and smoke can build up and ignite, which is exactly what happened when the back wall slipped away giving it the oxygen it needed to cause a massive smoke explosion.

“The building blew up. It blew windows out of the building, it blew wall out of the building, and that’s what hit me.”

There were six firefighters inside the building at the time, all of whom suffered concussions, twisted ankles or back injuries.

Isfeld’s injuries were

by far the worst, with a shattered knee and lower leg and he was whisked away to hospital in Vancouver.

“I look at it as taking one for the team,” Isfeld, then 45, jokes now.

Randy’s wife Linda was at the couple’s downtown home at the time of the accident and heard the explosion.

“She worried like any wife would,” he said, recalling that a private plane owner rushed his wife to hospital in Vancouver to be with her husband.

In fact, it wasn’t the actual explosion that impacted Isfeld, but rather what happened afterwards that would have a lifetime affect on his life, even to this day.

“So many people took the time to see how I was doing. It was the most humbling experience of my life that people took that much time out of their busy lives to check on me,” he said, describing a large box filled with Get Well cards he received while enduring three weeks in hospital, three operations and six months recovery.

He remembers waking up to find his hospital room looking more like a florist’s shop than a hospital room.

“But that’s the type of people we have in Williams Lake.”

Following his accident, Isfeld determined he could no longer physically fight fires for the safety of his fellow fire fighters, and instead over the years has put his efforts and energy into fire fighter training, helping to make Williams Lake’s paid

on-call fire fighters and the department one of the country’s leaders in training standards.

“Stuff happens, even if you are properly trained. We want our fire fighters to be as safe as they can be, that is the standard of this department.

(Otherwise) what’s a life worth?”

Currently, the Williams Lake Fire Department has 43 paid on-call members, 35 of whom are professionally certified, three career positions and one administration position.

Fiercely protective of his fire fighters, Isfeld said he’s also proud that the city adequately compensates its fire fighters and of the new fire hall that offers the ability to properly train officers and maintain equipment.

He said the fire hall also serves as the City’s Emergency Operations Centre in the event of a major catastrophe.

(A new fire hall) has been one of my goals,” he said.

In recent years, Isfeld suffered another injury to his eye during the annual Halloween Fireworks display which resulted in him losing his left eye in the freak accident, but Isfeld holds no grudges.

“Life goes on,” he says with a shrug of his shoulders. “What are you doing to do?”

More painful for Isfeld than the physical injuries, has been the loss of good friends over the years such as firemen Dale Moon and Bill Laird.

As he nears retirement, Isfeld admits “it’s getting tougher to get up now,” and he looks forward to woodworking and doing some traveling across Canada with his wife of 43 years Linda. The two also have three children; Deanna, Kurtis and Carson and five grandchildren that he’d like to spend more time with.

But he’ll never forget the feeling of being a fireman.

“You have a sense of accomplishment when you’re there helping someone who needs you. When you pull something off and save someone’s house, it feels good. Every fire fighter feels like that -- they just want to help.”

Seniors treated to wagon rides by local club The thunderstorms stayed away long enough for local seniors to enjoy one of their favourite days of the year, when members of Williams Lake Draft Horse and Driving Club treat them to their annual wagon rides.

“This day is really for the residents,” says Laurette Vike of Retirement Concepts.

“It makes them happy, it helps them relive their youth.”

In fact, the residents were so happy they could hardly contain their smiles and waves as members of the Williams Lake Draft Horse and Driving Club gave them long, picturesque rides in the warm sun.

“This is a happy day for me,” said 94-yearold resident Barbara Balul, who was thrilled to just watch the horses and riders go by while volunteer musicians played live country and bluegrass.

Tim Hicks, who was on hand to visit friends, said he was close to tears as he witnessed the care aides helping seniors feel at ease and encouraging them to participant.

“These girls are angels, without them some (seniors) wouldn’t have gone.”

Members of the Lion’s Club were also on hand for the day, providing a barbecue lunch enjoyed by residents outdoors.

New laws save lives B.C.’s new, stricter drinking and driving laws have significantly reduced deaths in our province, according to the University of Victoria.

The school said a new study by its Centre for Addictions Research (CARBC), released online last week, indicates the number of fatal alcohol-related collisions has decreased by more than 40 per cent under the new law.

The Immediate Roadside Prohibition (IRP) legislation was passed in 2010 and at the time, was met with both praise and opposition by the public.

It seems now that partially decriminalizing drunk driving by replacing laws under the Criminal Code of Canada with legislation in order to bring swifter, harsher punishment at the discretion of

RCMP, was obviously the right thing to do.

Previously, anyone with enough money to hire a savvy lawyer could eventually get around a drunk driving charge.

Scott Macdonald, CARBC assistant director, said the school’s findings suggest every province and territory in Canada should have its own legislation regarding drinking and driving and we would agree.

Macdonald and his team of researchers from CARBC and the University of British Columbia worked with the government of BC to conduct a third-party evaluation of the impact of the legislation by examining three types of outcomes from alcoholrelated collisions— fatalities, injuries and property damage. The

study compares statistics from the 15-year period before and twoyear period after the implementation of the legislation.

An estimated 104 lives have been saved since BC's impaired driving law came into effect in 2010.

“At its heart this program is about keeping our roads safe so drivers can get home to their families," said Suzanne Anton, Attorney General and Minister of Justice.

Along with the 40 per cent reduction in fatalities from alcohol-related crashes, they found significant declines for injuries (23 per cent) and property damage (19.5 per cent).

In Williams Lake, we need all the help we can get to reduce death and injury by drunk drivers. Sadly, we can probably all name

someone we know who has either driven drunk, or got hurt or killed by a drunk driver. There are a few tragedies that come to mind.

So, with that in mind, it was certainly inspirational Saturday evening to see the hundreds of dry grads who turned out to enjoy their celebrations without the ill effects of alcohol.

Congratulations go out to all the parents, friends and businesses who supported this wonderful, alcohol-free event.

The CARBC study, “The Impact on Alcohol-Related Collisions of the Partial Decriminalization of Impaired Driving in British Columbia” is available (online) in the peer-reviewed academic journal Accident Analysis and Prevention.

Road cyclists beware Though the summer has only just begun, there has already been many deaths of cyclists.

The latest tragedy happened on the weekend where a 16-yearold B.C. boy participating in a cancer fundraiser was struck and killed on Sunday in Washington State, where he was among a group of cyclists on the second day of a two-day ride from Vancouver to Seattle.

Earlier this year there has also

been deaths in Vancouver and Kamloops where cyclists have been hit by passing motorists.

As part of everyone's driver's license renewal, every motorist should have to cycle five kilometres or so on our area highways to learn to share the road and be a little more careful.

Lord knows if that happened drivers (particularly transport truck drivers) would be so terrified from the experience that

they'd be sure to slow down and move over when passing cyclists.

Since the latest tragedy, the British Columbia Cycling Coalition, an advocacy group, is calling for the provincial and municipal governments to implement a cycling safety strategy that would feature elements such as separated bike lanes and traffic-calmed streets in cities and paved shoulders on rural highways.

Cameron Pinette makes his sister Lauren smile while the two watch their brother Lucas play soccer during Williams Lake Youth Soccer Mini Jamboree Saturday at the Esler fields.

Our feathered friends have a human touch

Carmen has bought a female Budgie, named her Sunny and after a few weeks, decided that she needed a male companion and bought one. Now we have two sets of bickering going on.

Actually we never bicker because Carmen is always right. (Just kidding! ) What we have here, with Carmen and I, is what is known as a repartee, sometimes erudite and compelling, in that we do honour each other’s position and serve each other’s interests. (Can’t get more diplomatic than that.) Anyway, she

has decided to call the new Budgie, Bob. Well I’ve never had bird named after me before, I feel deeply honoured.

I hope they don’t breed though, one pair is enough as the constant bird screech is driving me nuts as it is.

Now Bob the bird is hyperactive and wrecks everything in the cage displaying bird bravado in an attempt to impress the female Sunny, who’s already smitten. Or maybe he’s throwing a hissy fit because he wants gourmet bird food.

He keeps throwing his gravel box onto the floor of the cage.

(Anarchy reigns, even in birdom.) He even broke out of the cage, no doubt further displaying his dislike for the run of the mill bird seed. “I’m not eating this crap, I’m busting out!” he chirped. I had

to track him down and capture him by hand only to receive his sharp little beak in my finger in response. Which I was forced to endure on the route back to his captivity. Maybe I should try them on the new dry dog food I bought, which the dogs are also rejecting.

At least I would have a 10 year supply.

Now he’s known as ‘Bad Bob,' which of course, is no reflection on my charming personality, to the extend that I do not throw things or jump up and down and screech at the top of my lungs.

I put their cage next to the window so they could stare at all the other birds out there. Flying free. The screeching went up a notch. Also, lining the tray with newspaper, I use the section on the B.C. legislature, so I can fertilize what goes on, with bird guano.

I remember all the other connections I have had with birds in my life, including the ones my sister and I were always rescuing as they hit the big picture window in our cottage.

Once a hummingbird hit my kitchen window and I ran out quickly

so the cat wouldn’t get it, only to find the little fellow stone cold.

Not knowing whether he was alive or not, I held him in my hands and gave him Reiki, (a technique to flow energy into him) and felt a tiny heartbeat. I blew my warm breath into his mouth as a awkward form of resuscitating him and lo and behold, he came too.

I simply opened my palm and he flew off in a straight line away from me. Suddenly, he turned and came right back on the same flight path and danced in front of my eyes, as

if to say thank-you.

The very next day, while meditating, I heard a buzz in front of my face and opened my eyes to a blur of wings. Here he was back, dancing about a foot in front of my third eye. Then he sat on a nearby vine and looked at me. How do these little creatures relate to us humans in a way unknown? I don’t know, but here the evidence is in. Birds do have a consciousness and they, I believe, do have feelings of a sort.

In this case, gratitude being one of them.

Province-wide gun amnesty in the month of June Nearly halfway through the BC Gun Amnesty, and the RCMP are hoping more persons take advantage of the chance to get rid of unwanted guns to help make communities safer.

Two weeks into the 30 day provincial amnesty, the Prince George RCMP have received calls from 12 residents requesting an officer to attend and remove unwanted firearms and weapons.

Of the 12 calls for service, 18 firearms made up of 15 long guns and three hand guns have been relinquished by the owners.

The types of firearms surrendered are: .303 rifles (4), .22 rifles (5) 30-06 rifle, 12 gauge shot gun (3), 20 gauge shot gun, .410 shot gun, .22 revolvers (2), .38 revolver.

Of those persons that turned over the guns, eight were male and four were female.

Two persons turned over their firearms because the guns were very old and would not likely be used again. Two other persons turned in firearms that belonged to their spouse that passed away.

Ammunition, magazines, holsters, a pellet gun, pellets and CO2 cartridges were also relinquished.

From June 1st to June 30th, 2013, the RCMP and municipal police forces throughout the province will be participating in a province wide gun amnesty.

To view the original May 30th, 2013 media release, go to www. princegeorge.rcmp.ca.

If residents of Prince George, Williams Lake or the surrounding

area have unwanted firearms, weapons or ammunition, this is the perfect opportunity to help make your home and our community a little bit safer.

If you would like to surrender unwanted firearms, weapons or ammunition, please call (250)561-3300 and request an officer attend your resi-

dence to pick them up. Please DO NOT bring them to the Detachment.

For more information, go to www.bcgunamnesty.ca.

tuation throughout the province does not make sense to me. Why is gas cheaper in Abbotsford than in Williams Lake?

You hear the stories that it’s more expensive here than other places because of the transportation costs. That’s a

crock of BS, because at times the prices in the north are cheaper! The gas suppliers have us over a barrel because we have only one choice.

Don’t drive, or get a hybrid or electric car.

More and more people are using the smaller more efficient vehicles that produce good mileage.

Sometimes I wish gas producers would stop giving us silly reasons for increasing the price of gas. Gas prices at the oil fields go down and the companies keep increasing the price. Why? I would like a good reason for the wide range of gas

prices throughout our province. *** Political correctness has gone crazy again.

School boards back east have decided that the children can no longer send Father's Day cards because it would offend those who didn’t have a father or those who have alternative lifestyles, like lesbians who have adopted a son.

When political correct stuff is put down kids' throats, nobody gains. Why do a few supposedly enlightened individuals in society have so much power. We don’t say the

Summertime the season for gas hikes Gas prices in the Cariboo have rocketed from 1.16 a litre in February and to now around 1.42.

In Abbotsford, my brother-in-law just gassed up last Saturday and it was 1. 27 a litre while in the Cariboo it was 15 cents more.

Why? It seems when the nice weather starts in the Cariboo in late spring the gas prices always go up Of course, more people travel in the good weather.

One person stated recently that oil companies are worse than organized crime.

Lord's prayer at assemblies anymore because it might offend a few people. The Chamber of Commerce Business Excellence awards night even stopped saying a prayer of thanks for the food we were receiving.

We always seem to bend to those few who have the loudest voices and are imbued with the political correctness dogma.

On a happier note happy birthday to my not so politically correct friend, Walt Cobb.

I hope everyone is getting ready for the Williams Lake Stampede.

Future TRU students receive scholarships $50,000 in scholarships and awards was given out at secondary school graduations last weekend to local students planning to attend Thompson Rivers University in Williams Lake.

The money was raised by the TRU GRIT committee – a group of business professionals in Williams Lake committed to helping students pursue a local education at Thompson Rivers University.

TRU GRIT’s chair Brian Garland says he believes in helping local students achieve post-secondary education.

He was excited to present the money to students and attended both graduations with Jacquie Johnston, Marketing Coordinator for Thompson Rivers University Williams Lake Campus. Two successful galas were held to raise the money for scholarships and awards.

20 awards of $2,000 and two scholarships of $5,000 were awarded between Williams Lake Secondary and Columneetza Secondary.

Recipients found out they had been selected during their graduation ceremony.

Police warn businesses of PIN fraud Since early April 2013, the “E” Division RCMP Federal Serious and Organized Crime Section Integrated Counterfeit Enforcement Team have noted an increase in an emerging trend involving fraudulent point of sale terminal (pin pad) refunds occurring at various retail businesses throughout the Lower Mainland and on Vancouver Island in British Columbia. We have seen both hardwired and wireless Point of Sale (POS) units

being targeted. The refunds far exceed the normal transactions that would be processed at that particular business and it appears all the fraudulent refunds are being put through via debit card.

How the fraud is committed: The suspect(s) enters a business and selects something to buy at the business and when they are handed the retailer POS terminal, they insert their card (as if using for payment) but instead they use the

standard merchant security password to override the system and refund cash into their account.

The amounts vary from $500 to $999. Suspects then immediately go to a financial institution and withdraw the funds from their accounts to which the money was refunded.

This issue can be prevented by having the business merchant change their standard security password on their POS machine and by making it a regular practice to change the

CRD: Libraries film screening of documentary We Were Children The Cariboo Regional District Library will be hosting a screening of the National Film Board documentary We Were Children in the Gibraltar Room of the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex in Williams Lake on Friday, June 21.

Doors will open at 6:30 p.m., with the evening starting at 7 p.m.

The evening will start with a selection of short videos created as part of the St. Joseph's Mission Residential School Commemoration project, including Tiffany Boston’s What is Reconciliation and Sadie Johnson’s Survivors of Alkali Lake.

Maisie Wright will be speaking on

behalf of the Indian Residential School Survivors Society, and Marilyn Charleyboy from Denisiqi Services Society will also be speaking.

The feature documentary, We Were Children, directed by Tim Wolochatiuk, focuses on the impact of residential schools on its survivors. For over 130 years till 1996, more than 100,000 of Canada's First Nations children were required to attend one of 80 government funded schools across the country run by various Christian faiths.

There were 80 of these 'residential schools' across the country. Most children were sent to faraway schools that separated them from their fami-

lies and traditional land.

Told through their own voices, We Were Children is the true story of two such children: Glen Anaquod and Lyna Hart. Due to the emotional and traumatic nature of the documentary, parental discretion is strongly advised.

Funding for this event was graciously donated by the Williams Lake and District Credit Union community investment grant.

We Were Children will also be screened in the CRD’s 100 Mile House library on Thursday, June 20 at 6 p.m. The library is located at 449 Birch Avenue in 100 Mile House. Admission for both events is free.

Lightning Five-Peat in Revelstoke The Williams Lake Lightning won an unprecedented fifth consecutive title at the 22nd annual Big Bear Classic Soccer Tournament in Revelstoke on the weekend. Tournament organizers described this year’s 14-team field as the toughest and deepest they’ve seen in the history of the event and the Lightning definitely had their work cut for them.

“Every year the tournament gets tougher to win and everybody badly wants to be the team that ends our streak,” said forward Ryan Glanville. “All four of our games this year were close but we always seem to find that big goal when we need it and our team defense always comes up huge.”

The Lightning opened the tournament with a 2-2 draw against Vernon Saturday morning.

After falling behind 1-0 Williams Lake answered with two Williams Lake's Ryan Glanville, middle, battles for the ball against a pair of Vernon defenders during the final quick goals from of the Revelstoke Big Bear Classic Soccer tournament Sunday.

Tough mudders

The Tough Mudder competition set to take place in Whistler this weekend will have some Williams Lake representation.

“It’s a personal challenge,” says competitor David Wong of Lake City Ford of why he’s trained for the competition. Wong is one in a team of ten taking in the event as team “The Undependables.”

“The greatest thing is we get together with a bunch of friends and have a blast doing it.”

Tough Mudder is an endurance event series in which participants attempt 10–12 mile long military-style obstacle courses.

Said to be designed

by British Special Forces to test mental as well as physical strength, obstacles often play off of common human fears, such as fire, water, and heights.

This is the second year Wong and his wife Stacy will take in the event.

Others on the team include Mark Gracia, Emelia Chavette, Jackie and Mike Huston, Mike Boehm, Jason Ouimet, John Hack and Glen and Deena Williamson.

“When you cross the finish line, it’s the greatest sense of accomplishment ... it takes everything in your body just to hoist that beer up at the end of the day.”

Another local team made up of fire fighters are also said to be training for the competition.

Representatives from KidSport gather yesterday to announce the numbers of children who have benefitted from the sports charity. Pictured are Michael Franklin, Chelsea Hamblin, KidSport chairperson Denise Skarra, Elisabeth Cornett, George Cornett, Brian Stefan, Angela Lake and Deb Radolla. Missing are Micheal Lucas and Pat Rodolla.

Kids benefit from KidSport Angie Mindus Cariboo Advisor Every year the sports charity KidSport Williams Lake Chapter is helping more and more children take part in sports, who perhaps couldn't afford it otherwise.

That was the message yesterday as representatives from KidSport met to give a summary of the number of children supported by the charity.

Last year, 110 children were assisted in registering for a sporting activity; 72 per cent of those being boys and 28 per cent girls.

The children received financial

assistance to a maximum of $200 each to register with 11 different sport organizations in nine different sports with a total of $14,310 in financial support.

The Williams Lake Chapter started in 2005 with a dedicated group of volunteers and has grown each year, from helping 35 children in 2005 to 110 children in 2012.

Last year local KidSport paid $7,255 for 51 children to pay hockey, $1,740 for eight children to be in gymnastics, $1,420 for 17 children to play soccer, $290 for two children in wrestling,

$1,079 for seven swimmers, $451 for five skaters, $143 for two dancers, $50 for five children to play fastball, $325 for five children to play lacrosse and $92 for one child to play football.

Canadian Tire owner Brian Stefan, whose store is one of many businesses that support the charity, says the committee does everything it can to say “yes” to every needy applicant.

“The support for KidSport in this community is overwhelming, which wonderful because sports really makes a positive impact on our youth,” said Stefan.

Taurus, you may have a difficult time taking sides when friends ask for your help in settling a dispute. Let your friends know you prefer to stay out of the squabble.

Gemini, you are in need of some down time, so plan a weekend jaunt or a brief vacation to relax and recharge your batteries this week.

It would normally be quite an effort to pull the wool over your eyes, Cancer. However, in the next few days you will be so distracted with other things that fooling you is possible.

The smaller you cut garlic the stronger the flavour. Chopping finely and/or pressing a clove, exposes more surfacers to the air to produce that strong aroma and potent flavour. If I am using garlic in cooking I will put half in the beginning of the process and just before the food is cooked, add the other half. This way you get a nice stronger garlic flavour.

Garlic is also good for your health. Louis Pastuer confirmed the goodness of garlic and its anti-bacterial nature in 1858. Rubbing a clove of crushed gar-

Garlic is one of my favourite foods. I could probably put garlic on my cereal in the morning and enjoy the taste.

Garlic roasted in the oven or on the barbecue is truly tasty. Chefs around the world swear by garlic and housewives have used it for centuries to add flavour to their cooking. In its natural form garlic is pungent. One raw garlic clove, finely minced or pressed releases more flavour than a dozen cooked whole cloves.

When garlic cloves are cooked or baked whole, the flavour mellows into a sweet, almost nutty flavour. Cooked whole, cloves have bare-

lic over cuts, burns or other external infections apparently ensures rapid healing.

Here is a good garlic recipe you can use for a number of recipes.

Garlic Aioli is a tangy emulsified sauce that is similar to mayonnaise but is made with olive oil instead of ordinary vegetable oil. Aioli makes a delicious sandwich spread or dip and it can also be served on grilled meat or fish.

Garlic Ailoi 3 egg yolks 1 pint extra virgin olive oil 8 cloves of garlic 2-3 tsp lemon juice 1 tsp ground salt

In a bowl, mash the garlic and the salt together until they form a paste. Add the egg yolks and whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth.

You can use an electric mixer if you wish.

Add the oil very slowly.

Adding the oil too fast will break your emulsion. Add a little more oil if it is too thick.

Finish the Aioli with the remaining lemon juice to achieve the right consistency. This recipe makes about two cups.

Try some garlic, good for your health and your tastebuds.

Bye for now and Goood Cooking.

Libra, sometimes practicality gets in the way of your imagination. Though this can sometimes be stifling, you have to find a balance between whimsy and reality.

No one can put your plan into action better than you, Scorpio.

Stop making excuses and really get started this week. Don’t expect immediate results.

Sagittarius, you may not feel that something you did is funny, but others are bowled over with laughter. Play along so you don’t come across as a spoil sport.

Expect your schedule to become quite hectic in the next few days, Capricorn. You may want to tie up any loose ends now and use any free time to rest.

Aquarius, a burst of energy has you flying through all of those little projects that you have been putting off. Once you are done, you may have to create a new list.

Pisces, though you feel like you have just been going through the motions, others are far more impressed than you think.
