New Native American center in Mariemont Jeanne Houck Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Mariemont Mayor Bill Brown said the village’s founder would be pleased to know it has opened a Native American Cultural & Education Center. “One of Mary Emery's long-standing dreams was to have a center located within Mariemont in which to display artifacts from earlier inhabitants of the land that Mariemont now occupies,” Brown said. “She was aware of earlier archeological work done in the village by Harvard University and by Dr. Charles Metz, who was a Cincinnati native and amateur archeologist.”
The artifacts on display at the Native American center in a recently built addition to Mariemont’s municipal building are from digs at the Madisonville Site in Dogwood Park on Pleasant Street and the adjoining Wynema Village Site in the South 80 Gardens and Walking Trails Park south of Mariemont Avenue. They include artifacts donated by the great-grandson of Metz, who excavated them at the Madisonville Site beginning in the late 1800s, and artifacts excavated by the University of Cincinnati at the Wynema Village Site beginning in 2012. UC students of Ken Tankersley, an associate professor of anthropology and geology who has been documenting archaeological sites in Mariemont since
the early 1970s, put the exhibits together. “With the help of some of his University of Cincinnati students, Dr. Tankersley has done a fantastic job of setting up and labeling the artifacts for display,” Mariemont's website says. “All of this work has been done at no cost to the village. We are fortunate to have Dr. Tankersley’s expertise.” Tankersley and Ohio Rep. Tom Brinkman helped Mariemont secure a $400,000 state grant for the Native American Cultural & Education Center. “The center reminds us that the village of Mariemont has been the ancestral home of Algonquian speaking peoSee CENTER, Page 2A

The center is temporarily closed due to the pandemic but will reopen as safety allows. “Prior to COVID-19 the center was open throughout the day and many residents would stop by,” Brown said. “It was also set up so teachers could make arrangements to bring classes in to view and learn about the artifacts.”

Tanya and Jason Gill brought their son Christian into the world on Feb. 18, 2013. Christian’s condition of giant congenital melanocytic nevus only allowed them 19 months with him, because he developed malignant melanoma as a result and died from pediatric cancer. About a year later, someone vandalized Christian’s headstone and gravesite and stole toys placed at his site. Tanya’s boss at the time started a GoFundMe event to help pay for the damage. They raised more than enough money and, from that, Tanya began giving to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital, the Dragonfl y Foundation and pediatric research. “What a great way to celebrate him,” said Tanya, who lives in the WestwoodCheviot area but crew up in the vicinity of Oakley and Norwood. “We can’t give him (toys) but we can share, give other kids that.” The memorial toy drive, in its fi fth year, looks diff erent in 2021 as Christian’s birthday approaches. Opting for the virtual route, Tanya created the Christian Kennedy Graham Memorial Toy Drive to raise money so she and Jason can still help support kids facing adversity every day. In the past, the family would have donation drive boxes around the city for people to drop toys if they couldn’t drop off donations to the Gill house in person. Last year the family raised s $18,000 in toys, gift cards and funds. During his fi ght, Tanya and Jason spent a lot of time at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital and the Dragonfl y Foundation, a community that helps “pediatric cancer patients and their families fi nd strength, courage and joy. Christian loved penguins, fi sh and turtles; the Dragonfl y Foundation was able to arrange a visit to the Newport Aquarium for Christian and his family. Christian was able to touch and pet diff erent animals he otherwise wouldn’t have been able to.” It was a memory Tanya will not soon forget. “I mean they brought out a penguin

and he got to pet a penguin,” Tanya said. “Oh, he lost his ever-loving mind, like ever-loving mind! He rarely cried and when they took the penguin away he was crying for the penguin to come back.” Thanks to the Dragonfl y Foundation and their social worker at Children’s Hospital, that moment was able to happen, making those organizations unique and close to the Gill family’s heart. The Gill family motto is “lean toward happy.” The phrase comes from Chris-
tian, of course. “One of the things that the head of the palliative pain care team told us, they said that Christian, no matter what he was up against, what they threw at him, his natural inclination was to lean toward happy. And so that’s just become our motto and that’s, that’s how we’ve handled this year.” To learn more about Christian, go to the Facebook page at https://www.face book.com/leantowardhappy2 .

Repairs continue on water main break

Quinlan Bentley Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Editor’s note: Information included refl ects this article’s original publication date – Feb. 2. Visit Cincinnati.com for possible updates. Offi cials said crews are continuing the repair eff ort exactly one month after a water main break shut down Riverside Drive in the East End. Construction is ongoing, with repairs to the roadway and water main expected to take until the end of March, Greater Cincinnati Water Works Spokesperson Tiff aney Hardy told The Enquirer. On Jan. 2, a 60-inch water main break and a 12-inch water main break at 2471 and 2458 Riverside Drive at Lumber and Bayou Streets caused signifi cant roadway damage, fl ooded structures and forced residents to relocate. Offi cials said previously that a portion of the 60-inch water main will need to be replaced, as well as a short length of the 12-inch water main. The water main was built in the early 1900s, and is one of the largest pressurized transmission mains in the water system. There has not been a previous history of breaks on this main.

Man indicted on failure to stop charge in death of Michael Currin Chris Mayhew Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
A 30-year-old man has been accused of not stopping after Archbishop Moeller High School graduate Michael Currin fell out of the back of a pickup truck he was riding in four months ago in Dayton, Ohio.

Area restaurants that opened or closed in January Keith Pandolfi Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Given the tumultuous, ridiculous, heartbreaking times in which we live, it’s a minor miracle the number of restaurants that closed in January in Greater Cincinnati was relatively small. And yet the ones we did lose, including Commonwealth Bistro in Covington and Jean-Robert’s Table, Downtown, put a serious tear in the fabric of our culinary community. Fortunately, the fi rst month of 2021 also saw openings, expansions, relocations and even transformations that are well worth raising one last glass of Champagne to. Also, to make sure next month’s closings list is even shorter, keep ordering from you favorite restaurants (and keep tipping as much as you can).
Restaurant openings Cibo e Vino Wine Bar and Cucina Moving into the old Muse space on Mount Lookout Square in January, this (very) Italian restaurant features delicious-sounding dishes (I haven’t been there yet) such as beef agrodolce panzotti with prosciutto cream, black walnuts and gorgonzola; roasted pork shoulder with roasted tomatoes, housemade porchetta and a nice take on arancini manifesting as a ball of crispy fried risotto, blue crab, three cheeses and an Italian parsley gremolata. The restaurant is owned by John Cioffi (whose father, by the way, opened the dearly departed Sudsy Malone’s) and Chef Chris Baulo, who attended culinary school at Johnson & Wales University before honing his skills at restaurants from Las Vegas to NYC. FYI: Baulo and Cioffi are also owners of Repertoire in Florence. 1000 Delta Ave., Mount Lookout, 513-429-2127, cibovinobar.com.
Zundo Ramen and Donburi Though it technically opened the last week of December, Zundo makes the cut. Owner Han Lin is off ering the same menu he does at his Over-the-Rhine location, including delicious takoyaki (balls of diced, deep fried octopus topped with mayo and fi sh fl akes), pork belly buns and, of course, ramen. 6663 Western Row Road, Mason, 513-9728016, zundootr.com.
Kanji Sushi & Korean Quickly breathing new life into the shuttered Harvest Pizzeria across the street from Findlay Market, Inho Cha, a native of South Korea, opened Kanji Sushi & Korean. Cha’s previous ventures include Izen’s Drunken Bento, and Drunken Taco, near UC. The new restaurant serves Korean classic dishes such as bibimbap, Korean-style ramen noodles and ‘sun du bu chi ke,’ a tofu stew with clams, eggs and mushrooms, served in spicy seaweed broth. 1739 Elm St., Findlay Market, 513873-8350, kanjiotr.com.

Yes, there are bar snacks (including “tableside s’mores”), but you also can order heavier fare from Just Q’n, located right next door. 65 E. McMillan St., Walnut Hills, 513-5599500, gorillacinemapresents.com/tiki.
Moxy Former Boca sous chef Gene Turner and his wife, Lou Turner, a veteran of Mita’s and Please, recently opened Moxy, a meal kit delivery service run out of the Incubator Kitchen Collective in Newport. The couple specializes in
French and Pennsylvania Dutch comfort food (Gene has a background in French cuisine, while Lou hails from Bucks County, Pennsylvania). Meals must be ordered 48 hours in advance and are about 90 percent fi nished when you pick them up. A recent menu online includes “The Best Chicken Ever,” with French lentils, carrot, parsnips, celery root, charred leeks and albufera sauce. You can also order a “weekend box,” which includes dinner and breakfast for the next day. 517 W. Seventh St., Newport, 425-289-9075, moxycincinnati.com.
Another Broken Egg Cafe The fourth Ohio location of this breakfast and lunch spot – which got its start in Mandeville, Louisiana, back in 1996 – opened its long-anticipated Hyde Park Plaza location in January. The place stays true to its Louisiana roots by off ering Gulf shrimp and grits, as well as its Mardi Gras omelet, which includes Louisiana crawfi sh, Gulf shrimp, andouille sausage and red peppers topped with tomato hollandaise, tomatoes and green onions. 3880 Paxton Ave., Hyde Park, 513-873-4536, anotherbrokenegg.com.
Deadline to nominate volunteers for Jeff erson Award is Feb. 12 The Enquirer
If you have heard of or witnessed the selfl essness of a community member, neighbor or friend, it's time to shine a light on their eff orts. You can now nominate outstanding volunteers in Greater Cincinnati for the Jeff erson Award for Public Service. Nominations are accepted from anyone in the community. Deadline is Friday, Feb. 12, 2021. Three fi nalists will be selected. Go to www.cincinnati.com/ jeff ersonawards to fi ll out an application. Bob Herzog of Local 12 will present the Jeff erson Award at the weekly Rotary luncheon, scheduled for noon Thursday, March 25, in the Hilton Netherland Hall of Mirrors downtown.

some of the great volunteerism and meaningful contributions of people who are doing amazing things.” Local software entrepreneur Craig Young, founder and director of Inspiring Service which locally operates as Cin-
cinnati Cares, was honored last February as Cincinnati’s winner. Young was cited for his philanthropy, volunteerism and creating of innovative solutions to empower regional organizations. The award is from the Rotary Club of Cincinnati and the American Institute of Public Service. The winner goes to Washington, D.C., in June to represent the region for the national award. The local winner has won the national honor eight times. This is the 16th year the Rotary Club of Cincinnati has coordinated the award. The club recognizes people who have created programs that serve unmet needs or volunteers who provide special services to organizations. The award was created in 1972 by a Cincinnati native, then-U.S. Senator Robert Taft, and former fi rst lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. It is presented annually to recipients in more than 90 cities in the United States.
Restaurant closings Pies & Pints The chain restaurant that off ered specialty pizzas, sandwiches and beers announced it would close its Banks location on Jan. 18. Its locations in Kenwood and Liberty Center remain open. A new tenant for the building, E+O Kitchen, will soon take its place.
Jean-Robert’s Table After losing the lease on his beloved Downtown location, Jean-Robert de Cavel shuttered Table in January. He is currently looking for a new space.
Lamp Post Cheese The beloved cheese shop decided to close its retail outlet in downtown Lebanon late last week, though it will continue doing wholesale (at least for the time being).
Commonwealth Bistro The Southern-Appalachian restaurant opened by husband-and-wife team Chris and Tess Burns closed due to “circumstances beyond our control,” as stated in a Jan. 27 Facebook post. The restaurant opened in October 2016 in Covington’s MainStrasse Village.
Kenwood Towne Centre’s Godiva boutique closing Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Godiva is closing all U.S. locations as in-store visits for its luxury chocolate dipped during the coronavirus pandemic. The company plans to shutter its 128 locations in North America, which includes 11 in Canada, by the end of March, according to USA TODAY. That includes the location inside Kenwood Towne Centre. But Godiva chocolates aren’t disappearing completely. You can still get them online as well as at grocery and other stores. The company, founded in Belgium, said in a statement that demand for inperson shopping “waned as a result of the pandemic and its acceleration of changes in consumers’ shopping behavior.” USA TODAY contributed to this article.

SPORTS Indian Hill beats Wyoming to maintain CHL lead Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Editor’s note: Information included refl ects this article’s original publication date – Feb. 2. WYOMING - It was a delayed fi rst meeting for the Indian Hill and Wyoming boys basketball teams on the fi rst day of February, but then again, some Cincinnati Hills League schools have only been playing for less than a month. Several CHL teams paused activities in late November, right when many basketball teams were gearing up for a season. In Indian Hill’s case, it was well over a month before their situation was even reevaluated. Indian Hill didn’t play a game until Jan. 12 when they faced CHCA. Since then their only loss has been to a pretty good Covington Catholic team. On Feb. 1, they stayed perfect in the CHL with a hard-fought win at Wyoming 56-50. They hit eight treys on the night with four of those coming from senior Mateo Lopez who led the Braves with 15 points. 6-foot-10 senior Luc Robinson added 14 and junior Antwan Peek Jr. had 13. In most seasons, Indian Hill would be in stretch-run form. Three weeks into allowable games, they’re just now getting used to the up-and-down rhythm of crucial conference contests. “We say it’s seven weeks to get yourself into midseason form,” Indian Hill coach Tim Burch said. “I think we’re in week three now. We’re not there yet. We can perform better.” Added Braves senior Wyatt Wachs, “It was actually a grind to get back here. We had to work our tails off because we were more out-of-shape than these teams we were playing against. I’d just love going to practice and seeing these guys focus every day. It’s a grind and it’s fun.” Mateo Lopez, like many multi-sport athletes the CHL is known for, came off the football fi eld in November a receiver/defensive back. Ditto for quarterback/forward Ty Thornton, running back/linebacker/guard Antwan Peek Jr., and teammates Luke Folke, John Podojil and Charlie Sumerel. “Most of our team was on the football team,” Lopez said. “It really helped that everyone came back at the same time and could get the same amount of reps. We haven’t been playing, but we’ve been in the gym so much and we’ve bonded as a team.” The Cowboys were led by Belmont signee Isaiah Walker, the league’s second-leading scorer who was held below his 21-point average but still fought for 15 points. The 6-foot-6 son of former Xavier player Tyrice Walker normally draws the other team’s best defender. “We’ve seen everything,” Wyoming
Indian Hill guard Mateo Lopez (12) shoots the ball during their basketball game against Wyoming last season. Monday, Lopez led the Braves at Wyoming with 15 points TONY TRIBBLE FOR THE ENQUIRER
coach Matt Rooks said on defenses trying to stop Walker. “He gets face-guarded on a regular basis. We have some stuff we try to do to get him touches on diff erent areas of the court. Zay’s so talented he can fi nd a way and get touches.” Wyoming started off in December but was 0-3 with losses to La Salle, St. Xavier and McNicholas. They didn’t play a conference game until Jan. 15 against Reading. “The schedule changes so much,”
Rooks said of playing in a pandemic. “But, that’s not an excuse. I give Indian Hill credit. They came down with a pla and kind of took it to us.” The Cowboys has won or shared six of the last seven Cincinnati Hills League titles, including the last two back-toback. Indian Hill last shared the crown in 2016. The Braves haven’t won outright since 2010. The two schools meet again on Friday, Feb. 12 at Indian Hill. Tim Burch
hopes he can continue to play games, have a full roster and stay on top. “It’s been a long time since we’ve been there and we just want to keep that up,” Burch said.

Moeller High School will be searching for a new athletic director Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Moeller's athletic director for the past seven and a half years is no longer at the school. School spokesperson Tara Grewe and Moeller President Marshall Hyzdu confi rmed the move Thursday night. Hyzdu, the school's president since 2016 and a 1996 Moeller grad will take on additional duties as interim AD with a search beginning next month. No further offi cial comment was made on Mike Asbeck's departure, but a message was sent to Moeller parents/ guardians from Hyzdu. As of today, February 4, 2021, Mike Asbeck has been terminated as an employee of Moeller High School. It is a
personnel matter, so we can not go into any detail, but please know it did not involve any students. We will begin a search for a new athletic director next month, but until we have a replacement, I will be stepping in as athletic director. Asbeck came to Moeller in 2013 from Bishop Fenwick replacing Barry Borman who had retired after 21 years. Prior to Fenwick, he was at his alma mater Columbus DeSales for six years until 2010. During his time at Moeller, the Crusaders won state titles in football (2013), baseball (2015), basketball (2018, 2019) and lacrosse (2017).

Editor’s note: Information included refl ects this article’s original publication date – Feb. 4. Ice rinks may be sparse in Greater Cincinnati, but that doesn’t stop high schools from fi elding teams with highly skilled players and teams that can rank among the state’s best. Here, in no particular order, are ice hockey players from Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky that have shown some skills while playing on their skates.
Nathan Sunderhaus, Northern Kentucky Norse In 47 games played, Sunderhaus leads the Norse in goals, assists and points by a wide margin. Sunderhaus has put 64 pucks into the net, 36 more goals than his closest teammate. As for assists, Sunderhaus’ 40 are 17 ahead of teammate Garrett Elliott. Those number give Sunderhaus 104 total points, making him the Norse leader over Elliott and Mark Dugan by 58 points, more than doubling the other duo’s 46 points each.

Holmes was the leader on the team with 221 faceoff wins, beating Shrider by 40 wins. Holmes’ 54% faceoff winning percentage was second for Talawanda.

Rose Lavelle, who starred for Cincinnati United Premier and Mount Notre Dame High School, scored her fi rst goal of the Women’s Soccer League regular season for Manchester City in a 4-0 win Jan. 31 against West Ham United. Lavelle came off the bench in the 65th minute and scored about six minutes later. Recently, the United States Women’s National Team star had a cow named after her. Forward Madison FC - the USL
League One team in Madison, Wisconsin - held a fan contest to name a calf delivered by its team cow. Rose Cowbelle was the winner. Last November, Lavelle’s goal in the 41st minute of USWNT’s fi rst match since March gave the team a 1-0 lead against the Netherlands in a 2-0 win. Lavelle was in New York City for a ticker-tape parade to celebrate USWNT’s FIFA Women’s World Cup title when she tweeted that video of Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden hippo Fiona reminded Lavelle of her own halftime hydration routine.
Lavelle scored the team’s second goal during USWNT’s win in the fi nal against the Netherlands, earning the Bronze Ball - given to the tournament’s thirdmost outstanding player.

COMMUNITY NEWS Upgrades to Loveland’s train trestle warning system An Overhead Height Warning System has been installed at both approaches to the Karl Brown Way train trestle in Downtown Loveland. The solar-powered system transmits a laser beam across the roadway prior to approaching the trestle. The laser is set at the pre-defi ned height of 8 feet. If the beam is broken by an approaching vehicle over the height limit, fl ashing lights will trigger to alert the driver. Accidents at the downtown train trestle have been an issue for many years. When the trestle is hit, it often results in traffi c delays. “When there is an accident at the trestle, we see signifi cant impacts to traffi c, especially around rush hour. These accidents frustrate drivers and tie up valuable police resources,” said Chief Sean Rahe of the Loveland Police Department. Prior to installing the Overhead Height Warning System, the city has installed multiple safety methods to help prevent vehicles from striking the trestle. “We’ve added advanced warning signage like traffi c signals, and we’ve increased low clearance sign visibility with bright neon colors and large text,” explained Cindy Klopfenstein, Loveland’s City Engineer. “We’ve been using signs that are even bigger than what is required by law, but accidents have continued to occur.” The Overhead Height Warning System was installed by A&A Safety with a portion of the project funding through the Ohio Department of Transportation’s Safety Grant Program. The city applied for the grant in February 2019 after hiring Choice One Engineering to conduct a safety study of the trestle. City staff will work with the police department to monitor accident reports to help gauge the eff ectiveness of the new system. Krista Rose, City of Loveland Ohio

Peters Cartridge Factory Apartments now leasing – Historic ammunitions factory brought back to life as urban-living apartments After years of careful planning, clean-up and redevelopment, the former Peters Cartridge Factory has been renovated, repurposed, and reimagined, and has been brought back to life as the Peters Cartridge Factory Apartments. And the apartments are now leasing. The Peters Cartridge Factory Apartments complex consists of four historic industrial buildings that off er one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments, and even unique two-story units. With 13’ ceilings and concrete fl oors, and green building features throughout the four buildings, amenities include a 3,000 square foot community room, an exercise room with a putting green, a dog exercise area, indoor bicycle storage and bicycle repair station, secure entries and some covered parking. Even more amenities are being added. The buildings once housed the Peters Cartridge Factory where ammunition was made in the early 1900s. These structures, now on the National Register of Historic Places, have become a complex with 134 unique apartments that off er unique urban living in the suburbs. Located adjacent to the well-used Loveland Bike Trail, the apartments are now open and move-in ready. “It has taken us over 12 years to get to this point. Ken Schon and I could not have accomplished this without the help of so many people at the national, state, and local level,” said Steven Bloomfi eld, one of the principals of Bloomfi eld/Schon, the developers of the complex. “Mayor Jim Smith and the people of South Lebanon saw early on that the repurposing of these blighted buildings would bring great benefi ts to the surrounding community.” “Keeping with the architectural integrity of the Peters Cartridge Factory site was a major goal,” said Ken Schon, a Bloomfi eld/Schon principal. “But even more so, we were determined to remove a blight and create a neighborhood. We have done so with unique living spaces, amenities and even a ‘corner pub.’” Due to COVID-19, all showings are by appointment only. Please go to www.pcfapts.com to learn more and set up an appointment. Bloomfi eld/Schon is a Cincinnati-based design and development fi rm. Cincinnati projects include the rehabilitation of the Historic Ford Factory (Walnut Hills), the American Can Building (Northside), and Kirby School (Northside). New projects include 2801 Erie (Hyde Park) and two mixed use residential buildings in downtown Ithaca, New York.

Greater Cincinnati Foundation seeks applications for Summertime Kids and Learning Links grants It’s that time of the year again for schools and nonprofi t organizations to submit their applications for Summertime Kids and Learning Links grants. Each grant supports creative education programs for youth during the summer months and school year, respectively. Although organizations can request lower amounts, the maximum grant award for Summertime Kids is $1,000 and $1,250 for Learning Links. Both Grants for Kids programs are made possible through the generosity of Greater Cincinnati Foundation (GCF) donors and continuing support from the Charles H. Dater Foundation.

Coff ee cake: ‘She called it blueberry boy bait. You can guess why’ Blueberry coffee cake (aka blueberry boy bait)
Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld Guest columnist
Adapted slightly from Once Upon a Chef site.
Yesterday, I went to the grocery with a list. All resolve left me when I spied a display of fresh, huge, beautiful blueberries in the produce section. Not on my list, but on sale! Impulse buying? Yes, and no regrets. Especially on a snowy day with thoughts of a warm fi re, a piece of fresh-baked blueberry coff ee cake accompanied by a mug of steaming tea. Sound good to you? Then you’ll enjoy making this moist and pretty blueberry coff ee cake known as blueberry boy bait. The story goes that a young girl baked it way back in the ‘50s for a baking contest. She called it blueberry boy bait. You can guess why. It’s still a popular coff ee cake today. With Valentine’s Day coming up, this coff ee cake would be a memorable “gift without ribbons” for that special someone. For those of you craving chocolate to celebrate, try the easy chocolate caramel fondue. One more thing: during this pandemic, think of those needing a lift. A funny Valentine card, call or treat will bring a smile, and a grateful spirit.
I upped the vanilla since I didn’t have lemon zest. Ingredients Streusel ⁄ 3 cup packed brown sugar, light or dark
1
⁄ 2 cup flour
1
1 1⁄ 4teaspoons cinnamon ⁄ 4 teaspoon salt
1
4 tablespoons butter, cold, diced small
This blueberry coffee cake recipe has been popular since the 1950s.
Cake
PHOTOS BY RITA HEIKENFELD/FOR THE ENQUIRER
2 cups flour 2 teaspoons baking powder ⁄ 4 teaspoon salt
1
⁄ 2 cup butter, softened
1
⁄ 4 cup sugar
3
I love you chocolate caramel fondue Easy peasy. Let little ones help. Ingredients
2 large eggs 1 tablespoon vanilla or 1 teaspoon lemon zest and 1 1⁄ 2 teaspoons vanilla ⁄ 2 cup milk
1
14 oz can sweetened condensed milk 12 oz jar caramel topping
2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen, not defrosted)
1 1⁄ 2 to 2 cups semi or bittersweet chocolate, chopped or good quality morsels
Instructions Whisk everything but butter together.
Instructions Put milk, topping and chocolate into nonstick pan over low heat. Whisk until melted and smooth. Serve
Add butter and use fi ngers to mix until crumbly. Cake Preheat oven to 375. Butter or spray 9” pan.
In bowl, small slow cooker or individual ramekins, surrounded by dippers.
Whisk flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
Rewarm gently in microwave.
This cake is perfect for a winter day with a cup of tea.
Add eggs one at a time, beating well. Add vanilla (and zest, if using).
Bake 40 to 45 minutes, until golden and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Mine took about 40. Don’t overbake.
Beat butter and sugar on medium speed until creamy.
Streusel
Dippers: marshmallows, strawberries, banana slices, cake cubes or whatever!
Dust berries with a bit of flour to keep from sinking during baking.
Add flour mixture, alternating with milk, on low to combine.
Freeze up to 3 months. Tips Whisk flour before measuring. This lightens flour up, giving more accurate measurement.
Add berries and fold in gently. Don’t over mix. Spread into pan. Sprinkle streusel evenly over batter. Start at outside edges so streusel doesn’t pile up in center with not enough to go around edges.
Dust berries with tiny bit of flour to keep from sinking during baking.

SCHOOL NEWS CHCA presents ‘The Musical Adventures of Flat Stanley JR’ Contributed by CHCA parent Kim Myers CINCINNATI, OH – Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy’s Theater Department presented “The Musical Adventures of Flat Stanley JR.” on Jan. 15-17, at the CHCA Linder Theater. Anna Brink directed the 33-member cast (featuring students from Grades 6-8) with assistance from CHCA Upper Elementary Teacher Mara Wright. Technical direction, set design, and lighting was coordinated by CHCA Theater Manager/Technical Director Jim Jung. Joe Whatley was the musical director, and the choreography was a joint eff ort by Anna Brink and Jay Goodlett. Stanley Lambchop is your ordinary, everyday teenager, wanting to do something amazing with his life. After making a wish on a falling star at a slumber party, the bulletin board above his bed falls right on top of him. The next morning, Stanley wakes up fl at! And that’s where Stanley’s amazing adventures begin; he is fl own like a kite, stamped, posted, and mailed from Hollywood to France to Honolulu! The show was full of fun songs, characters, and a great message: Experiencing amazing places and things is fun, but in the end, the best adventures are the ones we share with the people we love. After seeing the show, audiences remarked that it felt so good to laugh! The quirky and endearing musical, based on the book “Flat Stanley” by Jeff Brown, began by introducing the audience to the lovable Lambchop family: Dad (Blake Sisney), Mom (Georgia Myers), Stanley (Sam Saxby), and little brother Arthur (Brady Iskandar). At bedtime, Stanley wished on a falling star for adventure and signifi cance. Using very creative set design, Stanley gets squished by his bulletin board (Abby Null)! His slumber party friends, (DeJ McClure, Manuela Bernal-Viana, Sophia Thompson, and Beckham Romanello) discover that Stanley is now fl at. The family tries to come to terms with Stanley’s fl atness in “My Child Is Flat!” After a hilarious visit to Dr. Dan (Wyatt Elma) and Nurse Beatty (Lucy Beatty), the Lambchop family learns that Stanley is diagnosed as…fl at. The local mail person, Mrs. Cartero (Kelsey Espenshade), teams up with the show’s ensemble to convince Stanley to embrace
take this year, they were such troopers. Thankfully, with everyone’s cooperation, not a single student was missing from any of the performances due to illness or quarantine!” To learn more about Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy, visit chca-oh.org.

his fl atness and to go on an adventure by “Traveling Through the Mail.” Colorful sets and creative costumes enhanced Stanley’s adventures to Hollywood, Paris, and Hawaii. Live paintings of Napoleon (Wyatt Elma) and the Mona Lisa (Sabrina Thompson) combined with the frazzled O.Jay D’Art (Stephen Tait) to set the comical stage for Stanley to stop an art thief in The Louvre Museum. In Hawaii, Stanley stars in a surf movie…as the surfboard! Bikini Wahini (Maria Bernal-Viana) energizes the scene as she and the ensemble perform a
big beach number, “Surfi n’ the Mail.” Although Stanley’s dreams of traveling and signifi cance come true, he eventually concludes that “adventures are great but what’s the point if you can’t share them with the ones you love.” He returns home to the Lambchop family who missed him very much! Director Anna Brink shared, “I am so proud of the cast and crew in ‘Flat Stanley!’ The show was fantastically funny and entertaining, and they truly embraced their characters. There is no doubt they gave it their all – even with all of the COVID-19 precautions we had to
