2019 Florals by Locals

Coronado Cultural Arts Commission is pleased to sponsor the fifth annual “Florals by Locals” exhibition and sale of floral-themed art by local artists.

The two-day exhibition will be held during the annual Coronado Flower Show in Spreckels Park on Saturday, April 13 and Sunday, April 14 Watercolors, oils, mosaics and photography are included in this year’s show. Local artists will demonstrate painting and commission volunteers will be on hand to answer questions about the exhibition and the Cultural Arts Commission.

Artwork will be available to purchase directly through the represented artists.

Flowers are everywhere, including on nearly a third of the “Celebrating Coronado Artists” banners in the newly installed series on Orange Avenue.

From early April through the end of June, 30 beautiful light-pole banners representing 30 Coronado artists will be on display on the Orange Avenue medians from First Street to Avenida de las Arenas. The Orange Avenue Banner Program, funded through a generous grant from Discover Coronado, is in its third year and seeks to encourage the use of public spaces for public art and the promotion of art and cultural events.

The “Celebrating Coronado Artists” banner series was launched in 2017 and, this year, 15 new artists have been selected to join the 15 artists from the 2018 class and display their artwork. The artists series fulfills the mission of the Cultural Arts Commission to provide an avenue (pun intended) to promote, encourage and raise awareness of Coronado’s visual arts in general and our individual artists in particular!

Coronado’s Yesteryear

Circling Back on Naval History: U.S. Battle Fleet Provided Vivid Scene in Coronado

by Mary Grace Braun, Coronado Historical Association

Ninety-five years ago, on April 22, 1924, the U.S. Navy Battle Fleet returned from a long cruise in the tropics, providing a vivid scene of activity as over three dozen Navy vessels filled the Coronado Bay. “The fleet steamed into the harbor in close formation, marking one of the most beautiful spectacles ever seen here, and maintained that formation, until reaching the more congested part of their roadstead,

where

they divided and went to their various anchorages, ” stated an April 26, 1924 Coronado Journal article titled “Fleet Home From Winter Maneuvers.”

San Diego provided a crucial homeport for the Battle Fleet for two decades. As of 1922,

a

Navy General Order had designated the bulk of operating naval forces as the “United States Fleet, ” which included the Battle

Fleet and the Scouting Fleet. According to military historian Albert A. Nofi in his book “To Train the Fleet For War: The U.S. Navy Fleet Problems: 1923-1940, ” the Battle Fleet contained most of the modern battleships, plus submarines and the Navy’s first aircraft carriers.

It was stationed in the Pacific, with a primary port in San Diego until May 1940. The smaller Scouting Fleet, made up of older, coal-burning battleships, made up the Atlantic station.

During the years between World Wars I and II, 1918-1939, the U.S. Navy faced strict budgetary restraints and limits on naval armaments; yet, it successfully redeveloped its fleet from one built around slow battleships into a world-class force of warships.

Essential to its success were annual fleet maneuvers,

which

involved strategy and tactics that proved vital to winning the Second World War. Coronado Magazine

Under these committee chairs you’ll find an extensive web of volunteers, including City of Coronado employees, horticulture and design section chairs and co-chairs, members of Coronado Boy Scout Troop 801, school teachers and more than 200 home front judges who walk every block of the city to determine the recipients of yellow, red and blue ribbons.

“It’s all a labor of love, ” says Drummey, a

49th Annual Book Fair

1970 was an auspicious year for Coronado book lovers and Library patrons. The first Book Fair was held that year in Coronado resident Jane Winn’s back yard. The Friends of the Coronado Public Library (Friends), a non-profit organization whose mission is to support the Coronado Public Library, was also established in 1970.

Now in its 49th year, the Book Fair, sponsored by the Friends, is a three-day event featuring thousands of gently used books, DVD’s, and audio books covering all interests.

It is said to be the largest such event in California. The Book Fair is located in Spreckels Park, across from the Coronado Library adjacent to the Flower Show. Hundreds of volunteers come forth every year to help organize and operate this event. The Book Fair is more than a book sale, it is a time for the entire Coronado community to come together and share the love of reading while supporting the Library’s programs.

The Book Fair is open to members only on Friday, April 12, from 1 to 5 p.m. If you are not a member, you can join at the door. Membership forms are also available at the Library circulation desk and at Second Hand Prose book store behind the library on D Avenue. An annual Friends of the

Library membership meeting and reception will be held from 5 to 6:30 p.m. on Friday.

The Book Fair is open and free to the public on Saturday, April 13, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sunday, April 14, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

All proceeds from the Book Fair benefit Coronado Public Library programs for children, teens and adults including concerts, lectures, films, and reading programs including the Community Read.

Please remember to bring your own bags or boxes for your purchases. We hope to see you at the 49th Annual Book Fair in Spreckels Park!

Get out your Shopping Lists!

by Kris Grant Part of the fun of attending the flower show is shopping for unusual plants and merchandise rooted in floral and garden inspirations. Vendors will be housed in tents near the entrance to the show.

Here is a preview of vendors that you can use as a checklist for gifts for friends, family, or even yourself!

Plumeria Joe

Ausachica Nursery

Ausachica Nursery, based in El Cajon, offers distinctive plants from Australia, South Africa, Chile and the Mediterranean – all of which owner Robin Rushmore finds will thrive in southern California. She chooses Mediterranean-climate plants for their ease of maintenance, drought and heat tolerance and wildlife attraction.

Retired fire captain Jody Rogers is a native San Diegan who grew up in Point Loma and has always enjoyed gardening. A few years ago when he trimmed his over-the-rooftop plumeria, he didn’t know what to do with all the cuttings. “So I started potting them up, ” he said, using his own organic compost and visiting farmers markets. His plumerias are the celadine variety – “That’s the most fragrant variety, white with a yellow center, the ones they make Hawaiian leis out of, ” he said. His booth will sell both his plumerias and his organic compost that is PH balanced and filled with earthworms.

Hue By 2 Purses

The mother-daughter team of Mary Lynn and Amy Dominguez are back at this year’s flower show with their colorful and creative handmade purses, many of which feature floral motifs. Many can be viewed on the crafty website, Etsy. Mary Lynn majored in drawing and minored in design at Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles where her medium of choice was fabric. Although she launched a career as a public artist in Southern California, working mostly with mosaic on exterior projects, and using many other kinds of media for interior spaces, fabric remained close to her heart. Daughter Amy joined her as studio assistant on many projects and watched as her mom’s fabric collection grew, and grew and grew! But when Mary Lynn kept buying fabric, Amy suggested they launch a handbag line. “Even though we each have our own studio, we have the most fun when we meet up to tweak our designs, choose fabric combinations, and make the one-of-a-kind beads that go on our handbags, ” said Mary Lynn.

Diamond Milliner Coronado resident Marilyn Feldman is a retired social worker who is also a professionally trained couture milliner.

She will bring an array of hats, ranging from fascinators to cocktail party hats, fashion hats, soft brim hats and costume hats that cover every occasion; she’ll even have a collection of hats that are perfect for Coronado’s Independence Day celebration.

“People want hats for weddings, showers, fancy events and, of course, opening day at the Del Mar racetrack, ” says Feldman. And, each hat is totally unique!”

Kumlin Designs Sharing the booth with Ex Libris is Kumlin Designs, featuring colorful silk floral barrettes and pins, head wreaths, table décor including a variety of silk floral napkin rings, hair bands and sunhats. “I love hats; many of my customers purchase them to wear on garden tours, ” says San Carlos-based Carol Kumlin, who will work the booth on Saturday. Kumlin has an extensive background in fine art (watercolor and oil painting) as well as design (landscape architecture), which gave her a solid foundation for her creations.

Bowls by Mike and Me

Fellow artists Mike Leamons and Suzie Sterling craft distinctive bowls out of copper, which is hand-hammered and then enameled. This year, they’ll also bring copper and wood flower stands to the show. Says Sterling: “Enameling is an ancient art form, similar to Chinese cloisonné, in which we take a powdered glass and bake it in a kiln at 1, 500 degrees. We never know what we’re going to get.” The artists have been creating their enameled bowls for five years from their La Mesa studio and have each worked for more than 20 years in copper. Both artists will be at the flower show.

Ex Libris

Point Loma resident Veronica Marshall worked for a publisher while studying architecture in college and after graduation began assembling book collections in conjunction with architectural shows, Christmas bazaars and for individual authors who were making local appearances, including Julia Child and the late Ray Bradbury. Her books have been a perennial favorite at the flower show and include garden books for professionals or those just starting out, kids’ nature books, outdoor and indoor entertaining and, her overall theme this year, “books on spring.” Interspersed among the volumes are floral scarves and floral pendants.

Sea LaVie Living

Looking for coastal-inspired décor or authentic French pottery? You’ll find both at “Sea LaVie Living” – all incorporating the design inspirations of Coronado resident Nicole Wing. Wing grew up in Coronado (her parents owned the Chevron station where Willis Allen Real Estate is today), and two years ago she her military husband arrived back in town after duty stations throughout the world.

While living abroad in the French-speaking region of Belgium next to the French border, Wing immersed herself in the European lifestyle, soaking in the culture, learning French, cooking, taking in the sights, and hitting the antique markets. She started working with French potters who have been in business in the Alsace region since 1750, creating designs for “village” houses including one that she calls “The Red Village” house. She will have a limited supply for the flower show, but also will debut a “Concert in the Park” tablecloth that fits the petite picnic tables that many families bring to the summer concerts. “They include a modern-day non-slip, non-stain oilcloth imported from Denmark, with side pockets for utensils; embroidered family names are optional, ” she Wing. And has ordered new Coronado posters that depict the historic boathouse and bridge.

Coronado Sign

Stefan Freeman has been attending the Coronado Flower Show for 14 years and this is his first year as a vendor. His company, Coronado Sign, specializes in personalized “streets signs” that can be ordered in any color. In Coronado, those signs, handmade from metal with computer-generated graphics, include an insignia, such as a crown similar to, but not identical to, the official city seal, or other symbols, such as an “Islander” tiki. Freeman creates the signs from his garage and the popularity of his product has allowed him to expand to Imperial Beach, Chula Vista and San Diego. Most remarkable about his business success is that Freeman is a quadriplegic, the result of a diving accident in 1997. Freeman and his wife, Justine, a Coronado native, moved here from Orange County with their two children in 2012.

Fine Arts Design by Amanda Baris

Chula Vista-based fine artist Amanda Baris paints in acrylic, pulling from nature for inspiration. A graduate of the Art Institute of Portland, she comes from a family of artists. “I’ve been painting since I was five years old, ” said Baris. “My art is a mix of contemporary art and surrealism; it’s an expression of how I view the world through Mother Nature.” The Coronado Flower Show is her first art exhibition and she is about to launch a website.

Coronado’s Gluten-Free Pantry

When Roanna Canete’s toddler son was diagnosed with multiple food allergies, she began to notice the difficulties of finding good tasting food for him. While living in Italy, she had studied cooking, baking, chocolate making and gelato from a culture that places the highest value on food quality, freshness, taste, and appearance. She used this training to launch a wholesale bakery and custom cake studio as a “cottage industry, ” working from her Coronado home.

Now Canete has a 2, 400 square foot production facility in Clairemont serving restaurants and hotels throughout the county. But Canete hasn’t forgotten her community roots! Every Friday delivery trucks come to Coronado to distribute individual orders, taken over her website, coronadosglutenfreepantry.com. At the flower show, she’ll be selling cupcakes, brownies and cookies. There will also be a “cupcake lab” where kids can decorate their own cupcakes.

Spectrum, Art Inspired by Life

Ray Conser is a master gardener who describes his artwork as “inspired by life, people and events expressed in multiple media.” Included in his works are “gourd sculptures” featuring gourds that are carved, burned and/or painted and incorporate basketry, and inlaid glass. He additionally works in pastels, watercolor and photography.

Sand Dollar Collections and Sand Dollar Too The popular gift shops at North Island Naval Air Station is a perennial Flower Show favorite with gift items that feature garden themes as well as items with a patriotic flare.

Master Gardener’s Birdhouses Be sure to stop by the Master Gardener’s double booth in the educational section.

School Student Gardens Visited for the Coronado Flower Show of 2019

By Suzie Heap, UCCE Master Gardener

As I write this, I notice today is April 1, but I must say there were no April Fool jokes

surrounding these warm and sunny day student garden visits. I write this for you because school security is very strict and without a security pass one cannot see what student gardeners in Coronado are doing.

My first early morning stop was the Early Childhood Development Center Pre-School and

Village Kindergarten. I was greeted there by an Easter Bunny Garden with a bunny and stone

eggs, lavender and daffodils. What a way to start the day!

My next stop at Village Elementary School was a visit to Angela’s Garden,

recently

restored by Eagle Scout Kort Grossmann and

fellow members of Troop 801. The garden was

recently featured on the front page of the Eagle newspaper. There are four raised beds here, a

work table and a bin. The plants in the beds are marked with identification stones. I saw basil, squash, lettuce, tomatoes a variety of succulents

and flowers growing in the raised beds. What a

treat to see this garden restored and looking so beautiful.

Coronado Middle School (CMS) also has a garden that some years ago was an Eagle Scout

Project. Two parents, Amy Youngblood and

Luan Troxel, head up the CMS Garden Club. At the garden gate one is greeted by two wonderful, hanging,

succulent baskets. Once inside,

I

came face to face with a killer artichoke plant, a centerpiece in one of the four raised beds. The

garden is a feast for the eyes! These raised beds also contain strawberries, onions, rosemary, sweet peas,

lettuce,

pansies and a variety

of other flowers. Along with restored garden

beauty, there is a work table and a bin in the garden also.

This year the Palm Academy hasn’t had the chance to rework their garden following the

rains and Spring Break. The raised beds contain Nasturtiums and tomatoes. There is a banana The Silver Strand Elementary School has a beautiful, well-kept garden that has been grown from seeds.

Confessions (ish) of a Perfect Mom

by Hattie Foote

Coronado Magazine

Page 41

Parenting

I have been sitting in front of a blank screen for 20 minutes, snacking on Goldfish Crackers and kombucha (balance) and doing some reflecting. I have been writing for a year so I thought this is a good time to reintroduce myself. So hi, my name is Hattie! I am a Pisces, I love spicy food, and can be found at Target one to three times a week. Before this starts sounding like an online dating profile, let me add that most importantly I am a wife to a wonderful man child Chris (40) and mom to Lux (5) and Hunter (21/2).

When I was approached to start a parenting column I was apprehensive.

Why me? I’m no expert, I’m over here chugging along on the hot mess express!

I swear more than I should, I am a master procrastinator and we eat pizza at least once a week. Perfect is not on my radar these days.

Seeing as the Flower Show is this month, it reminds me of when I was starting out on this motherhood journey. My daughter was three months old and I was slowly emerging out of the baby blues fog.

I dressed us up in all white and hats, looking like proper spring ladies. I vividly remember wanting an idyllic picture to post on Instagram, to show how great I was at this whole mom thing. The truth was I was an absolute wreck on the inside and I was so freaked out because I didn’t know what the heck I was doing. When I look at that picture now, I just want to squeeze my 30-year-old self and say it’s ok. It’s ok not to look a certain way, it’s ok to have big feelings, it’s all really going to be ok.

I can already see that my daughter has very precise tendencies. Just yesterday we were at Vons and they were doing a coloring contest for kids. When we got home she was laser-focused on the project. Just as she finished her little Page 42

Parenting

brother grabbed it, creating a minuscule and I repeat minuscule wrinkle. The drama that ensued was epic, but once everyone calmed down I talked to her about being perfect. I told her that to me being perfect is kind of boring. Imperfections are beautiful and interesting. Not impressed, she asked for a snack and moved on. I will stick with those reminders though, because I whole heartily believe in the sentiment.

So as I share my parenting journey with my town that I love so much, my promise is to always keep it real. My photos tend to be magical (how obnoxious do I sound) because that’s my job and passion. Asking children to pose for pictures is like asking a Real Housewife not to throw a glass of wine, it’s just not gonna happen. If I really need a posed picture, usually a stop at Fuzziwigs is in order. Ultimately blurry iPhone pictures catching the real life, organic moments are my favorite. Don’t be afraid to share the chaos, it’s a lot more beautiful than it gets credit for!

I will say having people stop me on the street and tell me they can relate in some way or another has been the biggest pay off from writing this parenting column.

You can always find something in common with a fellow parent, no matter how much you differ. If you like to have a large glass of wine when the kids go to bed (raising my hand) go for it! If you take the time and go to spin class everyday (not raising my hand) you go girl! If you like to sleep with your entire family in your bed, wonderful! It’s all good, I have said it before and I will say it again, we are all doing the best we can!

So cheers with your coffee, wine, or La Croix to the imperfect moms, you guys are perfect. Ish.

Way of Life

From a House to a Home

by Jessica Tompane

Over the years, I have realized there are key aspects that transform a place of shelter into a meaningful space for you and your loved ones. My husband and I have an annual traditional of watching “The Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit” movie series (yes, I am admitting it). The premise of “The Hobbit” is largely based around the importance of having a home; a place where you belong, where you enjoy the everyday small comforts of life and where you gather with those you love. The main character had a strong sense of home and all of the above. In contrast, the other group of characters had lost their home and were willing to risk everything to recapture it.

Back to reality in modern day America, there are things that we at J Hill Interiors have done for clients to capture this concept, and things my husband and I have done in our personal house to create a home-like atmosphere.

Coronado Magazine

Page 47

People

People make a home; not a structure or building. We

have homes to shelter us and our families, but also open our space to others. We use homes as a place where people commune, break bread together, bond and grow. If your home doesn’t suit the people who live there, or your guests, it’s something to re-evaluate. For example, if kids or pets start taking over, make sure the sofa you purchase is not just pretty, but outdoor grade or soil/stain resistant.

Another example, if elderly people or those with back or knee challenges live in your home or visit, don’t purchase plush, deep upholstery pieces that makes it hard to get up.

Upholstery should then be on the shallower, firmer side.

Personalization

Your home should be an expression of who you are,

what you like, your style and what matters to you. It shouldn’t be a carbon copy design of a Houzz/Pinterest kitchen or living room picture. It also shouldn’t exude, for example, the Architectural Digest April 2019 issue, or be a display of the latest trends. If hosting is what matters to you, then your kitchen and flow of common spaces and furniture arrangements should reflect that, among other things. If you are passionate about modern architecture and love minimalistic designs, then your home should convey that. If you love traveling, sports, reading, music, etc., then your home should accommodate those things.

If you love bright colors, or pastels; it doesn’t matter what everyone else is doing. Incorporate that into your home!

Page 48

Coronado Magazine

Sentiments

Our kick-off meeting with every new client begins

with a thorough questionnaire. Much of that is to personalize the home, but to take it a step further, we want to utilize objects or things that matter to them. It could be an heirloom armoire, framing their grandfather’s letter from World War II, photography or symbols of locations that have meaning, family wall collages or other mementos they may have. We try and incorporate these things in a tasteful fashion that is cohesive with their home and accentuates the concept/object itself.

This emphasis on what is important to the client trickles down to all aspects of the design. For instance, we do not decorate with cooking or fashion coffee table books if the client does not relate to those subjects. Moreover, the art and wall objects we place in someone’s home should strike a chord rather than something from a generalized showroom.

Coronado Magazine

Page 49

Function and Form There is nothing more frustrating than a beautiful yet poorly functioning design. For example, a shower may be tiled with beautiful materials but if the shower head is at the wrong height, or has the wrong plumbing fixtures, the client will be frustrated every time he or she uses it.

Similarly, a kitchen can be aesthetically pleasing, but if all components are in the wrong place, it doesn’t serve its main purpose. Alternatively, a state-of-the-art modern industrial kitchen is great, but a traditionalist may find it too cold and sterile.

Or, a house could be extraordinarily ornate and detailed, yet a minimalist would be anxiety ridden with all the fuss. All that is to say, a home must spark joy from an aesthetic standpoint, but it equally has to serve its purpose and accommodate your personal needs and desires.

Plants

This may seem like small thing, but real-life plants make a huge difference in a home. It brings immediate warmth and life to a space. The plants can sometimes even be the focal point.

Enjoy making your house a home!

Vintage

Treasures

by Denise Lyon

Sun and blue skies have arrived in the land of Oz. Everything looks new and fresh. Coronado is now filled with flowers just in time for our annual flower show, the largest tented flower show in the nation. This event showcases local talent and serves as a reminder that flowers are truly works of art.

As a complement to the newness of spring, try contrasting this newness with the beauty and timelessness of vintage pieces. You may have some pieces that have been passed down to you but that are still lovely and functional several generations later. These pieces have a history and their story is continually added to with each generation that holds it. Their story and durability sparks memories of the different owners and loved ones that have used and treasured these pieces.

Bauer Vases These white vases were made by the Bauer Pottery Company. J.A. Bauer started the company in Kentucky, but in 1910 he moved to Southern California to escape the cold Midwest. Once in Los Angeles, Bauer was inspired by the weather and lifestyle and added bright colors and ring patterns to bowls - perfect for the California bungalow.

He created a line of pieces for the garden and home that became a staple in many American households.

By the early 1940s, crucial materials like tin, copper, lead and uranium were in short supply due to the war effort.

These minerals were essential for producing Bauer’s bright line of pottery and shortly after, the vibrant colors and popularity of the pottery diminished. Like Jadeite, many pottery pieces have been replicated from their original molds.

Utensils had highly specified purposes like forks for baked potatoes, pickles, toast, sardines and lemons and spoons for confectioner’s sugar and tomatoes.

In 1669, Cardinal Richelieu had the sharp points of knives rounded because he was offended by guests using knives to pick their teeth.

The flat side of a knife was used in lieu of a fork at one time. Flatware reflected a family’s status.

Flower Frogs Flower frogs date back to 14th century Japan and were created to hold flowers in place for carefully designed flower arrangements. They are often made of lead, pottery, glass or bronze and sit at the bottom of a vase in water like a frog.

They became popular in the U.S. in the 1920’s and 30’s.

Spiky frogs are good for fine, flimsy stems, those with wire loops work best with stiff stems, and frogs with holes are good for thicker stems.

Jadeite Jadeite, or Jade-ite, is a green milk glass created in the 1930s. It was meant to be an affordable utilitarian dishware and kitchenware with a little green color added to brighten people’s lives during the Depression. This American made glassware was stylish, affordable and durable. Some collectors love the nostalgia that Jadeite inspires as it was deliberately designed to make people happy. Others love to reminisce about their childhood memories of seeing Jadeite batter bowls and spice jars that were common in their 1950s kitchen. Most people, however, just love the milky green color and use Jadeite to serve food or display in their homes.

Champion in Healthcare: Dr. Susan Stone

by Ellen Breitner

If you refer to someone as a legend, two of the key qualifications are that this person is admired by many people and that they’re an individual who is selfless and makes an effort to put others before themselves. It’s these definitions that helped guide Soroptimist International of Coronado (SIC) in their selection of Dr. Susan Stone as their Soroptimist Legend for 2019.

Stone is the Chief Executive Officer of Sharp Coronado Hospital and Senior Vice Presiden of Sharp HealthCare Hospital Laboratory Services. Sharp Coronado Hospital is a 181-bed, full service community hospital specializing in total joint replacements and advanced liver care. Stone joined Sharp HealthCare in 1986 quickly advancing from the role of nursing assistant to holding numerous leadership positions, while at the same time earning her MSN and Ph.D. from the University of San Diego.

Stone credits her grandmother as her inspiration for becoming a nurse. “She was the primary source of income in her family, since my grandfather was disabled. She was a licensed vocational nurse who worked with new moms and their babies.

As a single mother, I was looking for a good career, and she not only advised me as to what would be a good vocation, she was an inspiring role model.”

When asked what her challenges were starting out as a single mother, she doesn’t hesitate to respond, “I didn’t focus on the challenges, I focused on the opportunities and the future.” She applies that philosophy to her career and her Page 64

Coronado Magazine

personal life. One quickly learns that spending time with Stone is an extremely positive experience.

Curious to know why she went from nursing to hospital administration, Stone explained that “as a clinical nurse, I found I was interested in business. When I was asked to develop a system strategic plan for Women’s Services I really enjoyed the process and recognized how leadership could make a difference for so many people. So I went from a nurse who took care of

individual patients, to a nurse who took care of a community.

For The Dandelions We Love

by Krysta Murray In the military community, April is devoted to the military

children. Military child appreciation month as it is officially known, honors all the U.S. military children steadfastly supporting our nation’s military members. The official flower of the military child is the dandelion, because

military children bloom anywhere they are planted. They are hardy and adaptable, just like dandelions.

Started in 1986, then Secretary of Defense Casper W. Weinberger realized that no one was recognizing the sacrifice that military children make. Military support

organizations and agencies began to use the month to

show appreciation to military kids for their bravery on the home front, as well as implement services and resources to help them cope with various difficulties unique to

their situations. Military children frequently deal with

separations from loved ones, multiple moves and even their parents’ injuries as part of the life they were born into or entered with their families. Purple is

used as the color to represent all military services, so throughout the course of the month, it is

also used as the color to represent support and appreciation of military children.

These children face unique circumstances and

Dandelions put down roots almost anywhere and it’s almost impossible to destroy. It’s an unpretentious plant, yet good looking. It’s a survivor in a broad range of climates.

Month of the Military Child

Military children bloom everywhere the winds carry them. They are hardy and upright. Their roots are strong, cultivated deeply in the culture of the Armed Forces… planted swiftly and surely. They’re ready to fly in the breezes that take them to new adventures, new lands and new friends.

Military children are well-rounded , culturally aware, tolerant and extremely resilient. They have learned from an early age that home is where their hearts are, that a good friend can be found in every corner of the world.

They learn that to survive means to adapt.

That the door that closes one chapter of their life opens up to a new and exciting adventure full of new friends and new experiences.

Greek Easter Traditions

by Linda L. Austin

Artemis Diane Sadlier was named for

her grandmother who was named for the Greek goddess, Artemis. Although she uses her middle name Diane, she retains her deep Greek roots and traditions. Her grandparents were born in Greece, one near Athens and one near Sparta, and had an arranged marriage. Sadlier’s Greek heritage is prominent in her cooking habits and religion. In her household, lemons and solid goat feta cheese are used liberally, and “olives need their pits for the best flavor and firmness.” Feta cubes sprinkled with soy sauce and lemon juice make a quick, tasty appetizer. “Greeks sprinkle lemon on everything, ” said Sadlier.

With

Easter quickly approaching,

the Greek Orthodox community is already in the midst of preparation.

Their customs for the Easter celebration, which include traditional foods and large feasts, are universally celebrated.

Regions may adopt local customs, but longstanding, familiar traditions are the rule.

For the Sadlier family and many other Greek Orthodox families, the season begins with forty days of fasting which translates to eating no animal products.

No meat, milk, cheese, eggs. However, fish is allowed on certain days.

attend services every night and often two times on Friday. On Holy Thursday the major preparations begin with baking Easter bread called tsoureki, and dying eggs red to represent the blood of Christ. Only deep red eggs dyed with a special coloring are present in the Greek household. The red eggs symbolize a renewal of life and good luck. The Sadliers sometimes soak the peeled, boiled eggs in pickle juice after Easter.

Mix the onions, eggs, scallions, cheese, parsley and dill.

Add the spinach and season with salt and pepper.

Preheat oven to 350º.

Cut four, five or six equal strips (according to size desired) of filo. Brush melted butter between two or three strips. Place the prepared mixture at one end of strip and fold into triangles.

Brush each triangle with butter. Freeze.

When ready to serve, place on cookie sheet and bake at approximately 350º until golden brown. Serve hot. Can be garnished with sour cream and chives.

If baking immediately, bake in a cooler oven.

The holiest day of the week is Holy Friday, a day of mourning not work,

when simple meals are prepared. Some devout families do not cook,

but if

they do, traditional dishes using boiled water, not oil, are prepared. Beans and thin soups are often the meal.

A midnight Resurrection Service on Holy Saturday is a candlelight service where

everyone has a candle for

“passing the light.” The lit candle is taken home to bring light into the home.

Fasting continues until the dinner, which is cooked after the service. The 3 a.m. dinner offers traditional soup made from the lamb’s intestines. Instead, Sadlier substitutes avyolemino, a soup made with egg yolk and lemon juice, mixed with broth,

thickened. She then adds stuffed grape leaves in the bowl of soup.

After a short service on Easter Sunday, the church picnic includes Greek songs, dances, and games with the red eggs.

Several people read scripture verses in different languages: Greek, Arabic, German, Italian. A live band performs, and wine and beer are served for the festive celebration.

Holy Week ends for the Sadliers with

the dinner that night, usually grilled lamb ribs coated the day before with ground dried herbs (rosemary, oregano, mint), which Sadlier grows and dries.

She cuts the ribs into serving size, so the herbs reach every side. Spanakopita (filo stuffed with a spinach mixture) is either a side dish or an appetizer, Greek potato salad, stewed green beans, feta cheese,

and olives complement the

lamb meal.

secretly taught them the dances. When Easter arrived, they were ready to treat the congregation. She had even created costumes: peasant blouses and solid pastel skirts with matching head scarves decorated with hanging coins. Eyelet aprons completed the costume. The older members of the congregation were especially pleased that the traditional Greek dances were being passed down.

When the Sadliers left Hawaii, a Navy officer took over the dance troop, and

Sadlier often moved as a child with her Air

Force family, although each summer the family spent a month in Destin, Florida, named for her

great-great-grandfather Leonard Destin. Family history has a postman commenting that the Destins received the most mail, so they should name the town Destin.

Marriage meant a continuation of the mobile life as she followed her military husband to his duty stations. When she landed in Coronado, Sadlier became a San Diego police detective and the Crimestoppers coordinator for the county for 20 years. She oversaw the operation of the anonymous tip line and made recommendations to the Crimestoppers’ board on the amount of reward the tipster should receive.

One of the stabilizing aspects of her mobile life was honoring the Greek traditions with other Greek families and routinely serving Greek dishes. Since her daughter attended a Greek school and is, therefore, very familiar with the traditions, it is certain the customs will continue in their family.

Last month the Coronado Magazine focused on dining in Coronado. We were looking for a fresh, colorful food image that denoted the spring season.

We teamed up with Clayton’s Bakery and Bistro owner Mary Frese with her new pastry chef, Elena Palma.

Palma created a beautiful four-layer naked carrot cake with buttercream frosting. With a touch of fresh gerbera daisies, and the pretty tile background in their new location, we were ready to shoot.

Afterwards, it was difficult choosing the photo for the cover; there were so many good ones. That cake could not take a bad picture!

it may

make the most sense, and it often does at a young age, to contribute to a Roth 401(k) or a Roth IRA. These accounts may allow your child to take tax free distributions at retirement versus having to pay taxes on what you take out.

employees into retirement accounts but not all employers have committed to this trend. It is so important to turn on automatic contributions from paychecks to retirement accounts as soon as your recent grad starts their first job. If they do not start early then is will be a challenge after they have become accustomed to a certain spending lifestyle. The notion is that if they start early they won’t even notice they are contributing to their retirement.

It might just take a few conversations with your recent graduate to positively impact their future and help them in a meaningful way, but can be well worth the effort. Keeping your child on the right track can not only help them but allow you to live out your life goals without big financial interruptions.
