Our talented graphic designer Devon Bergeron created this amazing art. She sketched out the design using local landmarks and area businesses and colored the image with oil pastels. Using a bit of Photoshop magic to place additional logos and the publication title, the masterpiece was complete. Thank you Devon!

Why is it called a hamburger? Trivia database KGB Answers states that 13 billion hamburgers are consumed worldwide every year. That’s 35,616,438 burgers eaten each day. As people around the globe munch on savory ground beef and their preferred toppings and condiments, many people have wondered just why a hamburger is called a hamburger. After all, there is no ham in it. A hamburger is a cooked ground patty, typically made out of beef, though different meats have been substituted in recent years. Still, most people will not find ground ham in their hamburger.

Don’t Know Where to Go for Dinner?
Here are some local reviews for area restaurants Boccata Deli & Market — “The two worlds of Boccata: Lunch and Dinner. Lunch is five out of five stars. Dinner would be six out of five stars. This is truly a gem in downtown Centralia. I have been to lunch at Boccata many times and I have never been disappointed. So, it was an easy choice when I was choosing a birthday dinner location! We started out with a couple glasses of wine and the calamari. The calamari was fresh and perfectly cooked in a garlic lemon sauce. Much better than the deep fried pre frozen calamari you find as so many local restaurants. We ordered the Linguini Carbonara. Garlic, butter, bacon. . . . . It was fantastic! We also ordered the eggplant with root vegetables. The eggplant was cut in half and filled with beans and vegetables. A very unique dish! A perfect dinner in my very own neighborhood!” ~ Peter Abbarno Ramblin Jacks Rib Eye — “We live within a few miles of the restaurant and eat there weekly. We have tried lots of things on the menu and everything is superb. They are always gracious and friendly. The smoked meats are very well done. I love the TriTip Dip sandwich and the rib eye steak. The burgers, meatloaf and fried chicken are tasty as well. My husband loves the pulled pork sandwich. The big surprise is the Clam Chowder. If you can get there on a Friday, it is thick and creamy with just the right amount of onions and bacon. (Sometimes they have it on Saturday too.) All their soups are delicious. I wouldn’t expect this from a western themed eatery but it is the best.” ~ Shelli Auman Mackinaw’s Restaurant— “Everytime I eat here I am always pleasantly surprised! The menu changes regularly so even though there isn’t a lot on it, it’s fun to come back and try something new. My husband and I always start with the cheese and ale fondue - delicious with their homemade sausage, apples and artisan bread. I’ve had the hazelnut pork chop - yummy, and their scalloped potatoes are delicious.” ~ Angela Dupont

Coffee & Doughnuts Ice Cream
Original recipe makes 10 servings Ingredients: • 4 marble crullers (fried twisted stick doughnuts) • 1 cup milk • 2 tablespoons instant coffee granules • 2 eggs • 3/4 cup white sugar • 2 cups heavy cream
Directions: 1. Crumble or chop the crullers into small pieces. Do not over chop into crumbs, but make a variety of piece sizes. Set the doughnut pieces aside. 2. Gently heat the milk in a saucepan over low heat until hot but not boiling, and stir in the instant coffee granules until dissolved. Remove the milk mixture from the heat, and allow to cool. 3. Place the eggs in a mixing bowl, and beat for 3 minutes with an electric mixer until light, adding sugar about 2 tablespoons at a time until the sugar has been incorporated. Beat for 1 more minute, then beat the milk mixture and heavy cream into the eggs on low speed, until the mixture is smooth and creamy. 4. Place the mixture into an ice cream maker, and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions. When the ice cream is firm but not hard, lightly mix in the doughnut pieces. Pack the ice cream into a covered airtight container, and freeze for 6 to 8 hours, to ripen the flavor and firm the ice cream. Let the ice cream stand at room temperature for about 10 minutes before scooping into servings. Editor's Note: Marble crullers are dense fried twisted stick doughnuts, half chocolate and half plain. Use crullers or other dense cake doughnuts in this recipe, not light yeast doughnuts.

Origins of Ketchup
Nearly every American household has a bottle of ketchup stashed in its cupboard or refrigerator. The origins of ketchup can be traced back to the 1600s when many cultures used pickling brine as dipping sauces for foods. Any sauce made with a vinegar base was known as catsup or ketchup. Americans eventually began experimenting with catsup recipes, targeting the country’s taste for sweet foods. In the mid-nineteenth century, the tomatobased variety that is popular today was created.

Milkshake History The term milkshake was first used (in print) in 1885. Milkshakes were an alcoholic whiskey drink that has been described as a "...sturdy, healthful eggnog type of drink, with eggs, whiskey, etc., served as a tonic as well as a treat." By 1900, the term milkshake referred to "wholesome drinks made with chocolate, strawberry, or vanilla syrups."

You’d think people who are healthy would be the last ones to need a doctor. But it makes a lot of sense to find and get to know your doctor before you have a problem. That way, he or she can learn about you, get your medical history into the Providence computer system and give you some ideas for staying healthy. So if you don’t have a doctor to call your own, call us and we’ll happily introduce you to some exceptional ones.

The first tractor factory was built by Charles Hart and Charles Parr, who worked on gas engines while they studied mechanical engineering at the University of Wisconsin. In 1897, they formed the Hart-Parr Gasoline Engine Company of Madison. Hart-Parr is credited with coining the word "tractor" and they manufactured their first tractor, the Hart-Parr No. 1 in 1901.

A Tip for Better Gas Mileage:
Clinic Northwest Pediatric Center, Inc. #1 Steck Medical Group Washington Park Medical Center
Oil Change Fred's Discount Tire & Carwash Ernie's Rapid Lube & Auto Repair I-5 Toyota Scion
Inflate your tires
Poorly inflated tires lower gas mileage and also pose a safety hazard. The Department of Energy notes that properly inflated tires can improve gas mileage by as much as 3 percent. Ideal tire pressure is different for each vehicle, so check your vehicle's owner's manual for recommended tire pressure or stop by your local tire store. Some vehicle manufacturers also include the recommended tire pressure on the vehicle itself, be it in the driver's side door jamb or in the vehicle's glove compartment. Tire pressure printed on the tire's sidewall might not be the ideal tire inflation for your particular vehicle, so always adhere to the manufacturer's recommendation instead.

Benefits of Massage
Massage # Kaci Jones, LMP (Keysar Center of Massage) 1 Briana Haller, LMP (Briana’s Place Salon & Wellness Spa) Kim Sorter, LMP (Medical Massage & Acupuncture)
Massage is generally considered part of complementary and alternative medicine. It's increasingly being offered along with standard treatment for a wide range of medical conditions and situations. Studies of the benefits of massage demonstrate that it is an effective treatment for reducing stress, pain and muscle tension. While more research is needed to confirm the benefits of massage, some studies have found massage may also be helpful for: Anxiety Digestive disorders Fibromyalgia Headaches Insomnia related to stress Myofascial pain syndrome Paresthesias and nerve pain Soft tissue strains or injuries Sports injuries Temporomandibular joint pain Beyond the benefits for specific conditions or diseases, some people enjoy massage because it often involves caring, comfort, a sense of empowerment and creating deep connections with their massage therapist. Despite its benefits, massage isn't meant as a replacement for regular medical care. Let your doctor know you're trying massage and be sure to follow any standard treatment plans you have.
