How To Take a Break in Paradise by Hattie Foote
2018 Coronado Magazine - June

I love my kids. I truly do. Being a parent is everything they said it would be. Sometimes its the little moments that make your heart explode with happiness. The other day my daughter told me I was a “good cooker” (whoop whoop, shout out to peanut butter and jelly) and it made my day. Later my daughter also said I looked like a man, you know to keep me humble I guess! Some days are glorious, but there are also (a lot) of hard days. Days that I just take my time at Boneys because it gives me five minutes of peace. Don’t get me wrong; I love me some Boneys, but let’s be honest. Mamas need a break. The good news is our beautiful Coronado gives us plenty of options to recharge. 8
2018 Coronado Magazine - June
When I had my first born, I was hit pretty hard with the baby blues. My whole world had been turned upside down and for the first six months I was completely overwhelmed by motherhood. It really is a blur to me, and I hadn’t quite grasped the concept that it was ok to need a break from your kids. The only thing that gave me some normalcy and peace was walking baby girl all over town. The mission was usually to get coffee, and Tartine was, and still is, my go to spot. So even if you can’t get out solo, strap those kids in and hit the pavement. Its amazing what a lovely coffee, pastry, and fresh air can do for the spirits!
Parenting
I am a huge fan of the saying look good, feel good. The majority of the time I am in yoga pants covered in lord knows what. So getting my hair or nails done gives me life! And no, I don’t think I’m being vain. There is only so much (mac & cheese, poop, mystery slime) a person can be covered in. Lucky for us there is no shortage of beauty salons on the island. I actually go to Hyde Edwards in Little Italy, but my hairdresser (hey Jessica Gallow) is a local Coronado treasure, so I don’t feel like I am cheating. I love Nail Studio also, and anyplace
that serves wine is a win in my book! My friends and family all go to different salons around town and I hear nothing but good things.
Chris Foote is a real hottie! Catch up on your shows or bring a book. Sometimes you have to multitask when your time is limited. No matter how you choose to stay moving, you won’t regret it, especially when you are eating your kids leftover cupcakes from one of the hundreds of birthday parties they attend.
You don’t have to spend a fortune. March into Rite Aid, grab a bottle of nail polish and paint your nails in the parking lot! This is a non judgement zone, people, take “me time” where you can get it! My last suggestion is probably obvious. I bring up the beach Keeping active is so important, in every column, and with good even when you really don’t want reason. The fact that we can be at to. I’m partial to Coronado world class beach within minutes Fitness Club, because the owner continues to blow my mind. If you have five minutes, go. If you have two hours, go. Bring a chair, a blanket, or nothing at all! Breath in that Coronado goodness. Think about whatever the heck you want! Read a book, listen to music, work out. Take advantage of our little piece of heaven on earth. Your mind, body, and soul will thank you. And the best part is it is free 99! Don’t be afraid to ask for help. Remember, if mama goes down the whole ship goes down. Take care of yourselves. Be kind to yourselves. Or as the kids these days say, treat yo self!

North of Second by Kel Casey
If you live on the bay side of Coronado, northeast-ish of Third and Fourth Streets, sometimes you want to shop, dine and maybe imbibe within a quick dash of your front door. I know I do. I love all of Coronado, but I don’t always love traffic, crowds, and the hunt for a parking spot in the “downtown” area. Thankfully, we have a multitude of both new and long-time businesses that serve the needs of those who want to stay north of Second Street. We could call it “NoSec” but that would probably sound pretentious, so we’ll stick to the term “Bayside.” There are far too many establishments to cover in a single column, so I’ll start this one with some of my favorite things from a handful of storefronts along Orange Avenue, First Street and the Ferry Landing.

Discover
When I need to grab a quick gift, or buy a new garden hose, Coronado Hardware is my go-to spot. Gifts at a hardware store? You betcha! The store has a vast selection of wind chimes, ornaments, beach-themed souvenirs such as dish towels and pot holders, plus bamboo cutting boards and fragrant hand-milled soaps. As a bonus, Curt Oliver is often manning the store, and he’s always happy to help you with your hardware needs, however large or small. You can get a morning caffeine fix, evening steak frites fix, and chocolate mousse fix (all on the same day if you are feeling especially self indulgent) at Tartine, where they serve CafÊ Moto coffee as an added perk (lame pun kind of intended). They also offer a delicious assortment of panini at lunch, and a gorgeous charcuterie platter all day long, even at breakfast. Winning!

Need a little pampering? Head over to BE Polished. This beautiful little fumefree nail boutique offers loads of beauty services in a bright, comfy setting. Cozy up on the couch with a hot neck pillow, magazine and a mimosa while the staff tends to your toes. If you’re feeling a tad peckish after your pampering, stroll up the block to Boneys and snag a sandwich or salad from the deli counter. You can’t go wrong with their edamame/quinoa salad and if they happen to have seasonal gazpacho, grab a container and a baguette for an easy, refreshing summer meal. The Ferry Landing isn’t just for tourists and six-seater rental surreys. You can spend an entire day here—a staycation on the bay to which you can walk, bike, or park without paying. More winning! Hit the broad multi-use path in the early morning hours, and be awed by the sun coming up over Mt. Laguna and the bridge, then reward yourself with a latte at the Coronado Coffee Company. There are far too many lovely dining establishments at the Landing to cover in one short column, and there is truly something for every age and palate. Happy hour at Il Fornaio offers a gorgeous view, people watching, and some fine pizzas and bruschetta at a great price. Kids can get mac and cheese at Little Piggy’s and if you’re a fan of Greek fare, locally owned Spiro’s Greek Café is your spot. I’m especially fond of their gyro platter, served with a side of the all-important fries and a Greek salad. 2018 Coronado Magazine - June

If you aren’t worn out from your day on the bay and need a nightcap, a fantastic juke box, and level pool tables, The Little Club is where you need to be. It’s my go-to dive bar. Take your quarters, put your name up on the board, and play a little Skynyrd while you rack ‘em up. You’ll meet your old friends and new best friends in this little spot. They don’t serve food, but you can grab some tater tots to go at Nicky Rottens and nosh while you’re waiting to play. Check back with us for more island (or peninsular, for you sticklers of geographic accuracy out there) favorites in the coming weeks. Photos by Kel Casey

From One CHS Grad to Another Coronado High School (CHS) offers a great education in our paradise bubble. Most of us who either graduated, had children or grandchildren who graduated from CHS, treasure those four years spent at the school and feel blessed to have had that unique environment for those formative years into adulthood. There is a special status to being a CHS alumni, beyond the all - inclusive reunion every 4th of July. There are special bonds made between classmates and those who have graduated before and after them. Many will recall exemplary teachers, coaches, administrators who they may have shared over the years that will have impacted their lives in some way. Others will remember fondly biking or walking to school, being part of a team, club or CoSA, or creating the class float for the homecoming parade, along with the local businesses and community members who strongly support them in fundraising and community events or scholarships. Currently, CHS has passed along all it could to the class of 2018. As the school is about to graduate this class into the growing status of alumni, the graduates will find themselves embraced into the membership and community as such.

Important Life Lessons CHS alumni were asked to share what was the most important lesson they had learned since their own graduation. Some of the comments were repeated often, no matter how many years separated the graduates: Evan, a recent graduate from the class of 2017, said, “I’ve learned that the world is a lot bigger and more diverse than I’d known…” and “Get out of town, travel and experience the real world,” from Don, class of 1970. A common life lesson thread dealt with the dreaded surety of change, but it was always followed with encouragement, flexibility and hope. It is fine not to know where you are going. These thoughts came mainly from the younger alumni.
20
“Don’t be too sure of yourself and the plan that you have because life happens and plans change and change and change again, but it will all work out in the long run,” says Alana, ’17.
“Your future aspirations will greatly change every decade.” Daniel, ’00 Those that have been around the block a time or two focused on other life lessons, such as hard work, facing failures, saving money and procrastination. “Everyone struggles, even the most put together person you know has setbacks and failures. It is how you overcome those that define your future.” Jordan, ’13.
“Save for a ‘rainy day fund.’ When your “Follow your instincts and commit to car breaks down, or you need extra things that you both like and are good cash for rent, it will come in handy.” at. It will pay off in the long run and Anna ’11 you will be happier.” Greg ‘13 “Do the dishes as soon as you make them, don’t let things pile up. Yes, that’s “Life comes with a lot of unexpected metaphorical but also literal.” twists and turns and it’s ok not to always Andrew ’98 have a plan because adjustments will be made regardless. Be flexible, be “Don’t be afraid to fail. Working harder open minded and always be yourself.” overcomes most deficiencies.” Anonymous, ’11 Paul, ’87

Advice to the Class of 2018
With the advent of graduation on the horizon for the class of 2018, past CHS alumni had a few words of wisdom to share. Many said to enjoy, appreciate and love your life here in Coronado, such as Jill, class of 1989, “…Enjoy your great town, go surfing, sailing, bike ride…You cannot do this in other places year round!” Evan, class of ’17, added “Go to the beach, go hiking and savor the taste of California burrito from Clayton’s.” Mitchell, class of ’17 summed it up, “Living somewhere else will give you a whole new appreciation for our hometown.” Risk taking was another topic that struck a chord with alumni: “….explore and take advantage of all the options college has to offer…” Miranda, ’17
“Patience….Learn to be okay with uncertainty because the next few years are a great time to test the waters with things you’re interested in, especially the ones that might take you by surprise.” Brooke ’09
“Enjoy and appreciate your family because you don’t know how much they mean to you until you’re thousands of miles away.” Alana ’17
“Start your financial planning now. Whether it be to save money for college, “Your opportunities are boundless; and graduate school or your first home. The there are an overwhelming number of earlier you start planning, the better.” paths to a successful life. A closed door Siobhán, ’09 may turn out to be the best discover in your early life.” “I found out I didn’t know everything Bill ’82 like I thought I did at 18.” Maureen ’95 And there was some everyday practical advice: “Wait until you’re 30 to get married. Your priorities change and hopefully “Your health should be your No. 1 [you’ll] not be so self centered by then. priority. Get enough sleep, eat well, When you marry you lose the word ‘I’ exercise….If you don’t know how to and gain the word ‘we.’” cook, definitely learn.” Kandy, ‘76 Josh ’17 2018 Coronado Magazine - June
21
One of the most interesting things that came out of gathering this information was the comments from those that have been out of high school for over 50 years. Repeatedly, variations of “learn something new every day” and “don’t quit” came through. Dennis, ’61 advised “Don’t quit. Apply yourself to the best of your abilities and the rest will take care of itself.” To sum up the many wonderful observations that were gathered, a recent graduate, Austin, ’17, said “Coronado High School does a great job of preparing you for the next step in life.” Anna, ‘11, advises, “... to keep in touch with your friends.” A ’95 graduate simply offered the wisdom, “like yourself.” And a venerable 80 year old alumni said, “Have manners, be kind to people, do a lot of praying. “ “Most of all, do a lot of thanking.”
“Be the person you want to be.” Christian ’17
“Create the world you want to live in.” Mel ‘73

“What lies behind us, and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us.” attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson “Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.” Winston Churchill “Change your thoughts and you change your world.” Norman Vincent Peale “Your education is a dress rehearsal for a life that is yours to lead.” Nora Ephron “If you look at what you have in life, you’ll always have more. If you look at what you don’t have in life, you’ll never have enough.” Oprah Winfrey “There is not traffic jam along the extra mile.” Roger Staubach “How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.” Anne Frank “You’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.” Winnie the Pooh (A.A.

THEN & NOW
The Coronado Historical Association Presents
Down the Research rabbit hole by Vickie Stone, Registrar & Curator of Collections A sample Cashmere Bouquet lipstick tube. Circa 1940s. Coronado Historical Association Collection.
Recently, I began researching a cosmetic set from the Coronado Historical Association Collection. The set includes a nail polish bottle, an eyeshadow compact, and a lipstick tube. None of the items are well documented, so I conducted some research to learn more about them. I spent so much time looking into the history of these items that I ended up down the “research rabbit hole.” The lipstick tube was most intriguing to me, as the brand listed on the side is Colgate. I was only familiar with Colgate as the well-known toothpaste brand. After some digging, I found that the Colgate Company was once one of the dominant cosmetic manufacturing companies in the United States. The company merged into the conglomerate Colgate-Palmolive-Peet from 1923 to 1953, and is the specific manufacturer of the lipstick tube in our collection. Colgate-Palmolive-Peet developed their main cosmetic line centered around the scent “Cashmere Bouquet.” They originally developed the scent as their popular soap brand in 1872. The brand Cashmere Bouquet exuded luxury and elegance. Later the brand expanded to include many different toiletry items such as talcum powder, perfumes, and lotions. The lipstick in the Association’s Collection is a sample of Cashmere Bouquet’s lipstick line. It sold for ten cents each. 24
After digging deep into the history of the manufacturing of the lipstick, I wanted to find out more about who originally owned these items. I looked into how Coronado reflected this larger interest in a growing cosmetics industry in the twentieth century. To my surprise, the catalog record for the cosmetic set suggested that these items belonged to Anita Page. Anita Page, the stage name of 1920s movie scarlet Anita Pomares, is well known in Coronado. She starred in over thirty silent and “talkie” films in her career, some of which were filmed here in Coronado. “The Flying Fleet,” filmed on North Island in 1929, was her most popular film made in Coronado. It was especially popular because her personal life seemed to mirror her character’s. She later fell in love with a Navy pilot. After her silver screen retirement in 1936, she married Navy Lieutenant Hershel House.

2018 Coronado Magazine - June
The couple eventually moved to Coronado where they built a house in the 1950s and raised their two daughters. Mrs. House was very active in the community. She even spearheaded the philanthropic initiatives of the Coronado Playhouse. Though the provenance for this cosmetic set isn’t clear, it is exciting to think that we may have physical remnants of old Hollywood in the Historical Association’s Collection.

TAXES & YOU
Special Tax Breaks for Members of the Military by Nathan Ihm, EA
Those who serve our country in the armed forces are eligible for many tax breaks. Unfortunately, many people who are eligible for these benefits never receive them because they are not aware they exist. Some of the benefits available to military members and veterans and their families include: • Low and moderate income service members, or those who spent time in a tax free combat zone, often qualify for family friendly tax benefits such as the Earned Income Tax Credit. A special computation method is available for those who receive combat pay. • Low and moderate income service members who contribute to a retirement plan, such as an IRA or a Thrift Savings Plan, can often claim the Retirement Savings Contributions Credit. • Generous education credits may be available, even if the student’s college is being paid for by the GI Bill. (This is an often overlooked benefit.) • Basic allowances for housing and subsistence (BAH and BAS) are tax-free income. • Certain combat pay can be excluded from income.
• Service members pay state taxes on their military wages to their domicile state of record. Since many service members rotate through states with no income tax like Texas, Florida, Nevada, and Washington they can make those states their domicile and see significant state tax savings for the rest of their military career. If their spouse lived with them in that state while they were married then their spouse also gets this same benefit for their non-military wages. • When selling a property that was used as both a residence and as rental property, service members can see considerable tax savings due to rules about moving due to permanent change of station orders. • Armed forces reservists whose reserve related duties take them more than 100 miles from home can deduct their unreimbursed travel expenses. • Members of the armed forces on active duty who move because of a permanent change of station are not required to meet the time and distance tests to deduct eligible unreimbursed moving expenses. • Service members stationed outside the U.S. and Puerto Rico qualify for a twomonth extension of time to file a federal income tax return.
• The deadline for filing tax returns, paying taxes, filing claims for refund, and taking other actions with the IRS is extended for those serving in a combat zone. • Service members may qualify to delay payment of income tax that becomes due before or during their period of service. • Retired military members can receive tax-free income due to service related disabilities. (IRS reporting documents are often incorrect, which results in the veteran paying more tax than is required. New retirees should be certain to verify the taxable amount shown on their Form 1099-R.) Some of these tax benefits are wellknown and commonly claimed by service members, but others are more complicated and often overlooked. Service members should be certain to seek competent advice to assure that they receive all benefits that are available to them and their families.

Media as the Mirror of Reality by Brooke Clifford With “incels” (involuntary celebates) in the mainstream news in recent weeks, I’ve been hearing conversations around the idea that the world owes you something. When I got to thinking about how perceived reality can differ so wildly between two people, this seemed like a perfect opportunity to examine more about gender in media, specifically the depiction of women in games, television, and film. Historically, neither industry has a great track record of gender equality in a variety of ways, the most obvious of which being the distinct lack of females, let alone female protagonists, on screen. Up until recent years, leads in games, TV and movies have primarily taken the shape and form of males, and a wide variety at that - Italian plumber, enhanced super soldier, theoretical physicist, hacker savior, mob boss, you name it.
Men, in particular the white, male demographic, have the privilege of constantly seeing themselves in the character archetypes presented on screen, giving them a plethora of heroes with which to view and project themselves through. Overwhelmingly, these male characters hold positions of leadership in the games we play and the popular media we consume in relation to female characters who are disproportionately relegated to more passive roles. Of course, a character doesn’t have to look anything like you for you to identify with them, however studies on representation in media demonstrate the powerful affect media has on shaping society and our own perceptions of the world around us. This “reality” on screen inserts itself as the norm, and is one way in which unconscious gender bias forms and plays into our culture.
Today, only 14.6% of women are in executive positions in Fortune 500 companies, despite the 52% making up all professional-level jobs in the United States. Currently less than 25% of women hold roles in the U.S. House and Senate. For a much more positive example of the real-world effect representation has in the stories we tell on screen, take a look at the “Scully Effect.” According to a 2018 study by the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media, nearly two-thirds (63%) of women who work in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) careers say the character of Dana Scully in the “The X-Files” served as a role model for them getting into their career fields. Previous to that character, there were no prominent, multi-dimensional female leads on television with positions in the sciences, technology, engineering, or

maths for women, or men, to visualize as a reality in the world. While popular entertainment is progressing to be more inclusive and diverse, many shows, movies, and especially video games still fail to pass the Bechdel Test – a test designed by cartoonist Alison Bechdel to demonstrate if a piece of media meets the most basic standard of gender equality and start the conversation about gender representation. The test asks three simple questions: Are there at least two female characters? (Bonus if they both have names.) Do these women talk to each other? Do they share a conversation that doesn’t revolve around a man? It sounds pretty simple but you may be surprised at how few popular works of fiction consistently pass Bechdel’s requirements. Women are used to getting a single female major character amongst a team of males. “Star Trek,” “Star Wars,” Marvel, “The Legend of Zelda” – many major franchises still have work to do when it comes to

representation. No matter how strong and progressive a female character might be, when she has no other women to talk to, that piece of media continues reinforcing an idea in the back of the mind that the world revolves around men. Even in 2016, less than a third of the protagonists in the top 100 domestic films were women, even less so for women of color and other minorities, and that year marked a historic high for female leads in Hollywood. I encourage you to put your favorites or current game or show binge content to the test. Games are a trickier medium as player choice has come to be emphasized or traditional storytelling and even games that seem to take a progressive approach to character romance, such as the Mass Effect series, can all too easily step into sexist territory. Most characters on the team are possible romantic options given an eventual sex scene with the hero or heroine. Not only does this begin to trivialize the interactions leading up to it as boxes to check, it perpetuates an idea that everyone should be interested in you romantically and physically, and gratuitously rewards a set of completed actions. When we look at these representations and the ideas that arise from these constant, skewed visuals, it’s easier to understand how an unconscious bias is formed and could go so far as to make
2018 Coronado Magazine - June
a person believe that the world owes them something: money, power, sex. When things aren’t lining up according to the reality we perceive as correct, as influenced by the male centric perspective of the stories we see and play through, it’s the real world that becomes somehow wrong versus any self-introspective fault of our own. Perhaps if equal representation were achieved on the screen of our popular entertainment, we’d see less widespread incidents of violence and discrimination such as the tragedy last month in Toronto where a man ran over people killing them with his van because women weren’t having sex with him. Reality and representation directly feed into each other, and being conscious of the inequalities therein is the first step to real progress.

With all the great music and the lush, green lawn that Spreckels has to offer, it the perfect meet up place for everyone in the community. Packing up your meal and traveling beyond your backyard can be easy and charming no matter where you go.

PICNIC
Italian Pressed Sandwiches T
hese are a perfect do-ahead main course for a picnic, ideally made 6-12 hours ahead. Try any of your favorite Italian meats and cheeses, change up the peppers or arugula - add or subtract to your tastes. 1 Ciabatta baguette or focaccia bread, sliced in half lengthwise Butter 2-3 red peppers, roasted* 1 large bunch of arugula or other lettuce 2 cups mozzarella, sliced 10 ounces assorted Italian deli meats Balsamic vinegar Olive Oil Salt and pepper to taste Butter each half loaf of the Ciabatta baguette. (This helps the bread from becoming soggy.) place a generous amount of meats layered over top the bottom half of the baguette. Top with cooled roasted red peppers. Next layer sliced mozzarella cheese. (If cheese is very moist, wipe with paper towel before placing on sandwich.) Drizzle balsamic vinegar over cheese and add salt and pepper to taste. Add a lot of arugula; it may look like a lot but it compacts down. Finally top with the top half of the Ciabatta baguette. Wrap the sandwich tightly in plastic wrap and set on a baking sheet. Place a heavy skillet on top and add heavy canned goods overtop. Or if you have a heavy book you don’t mind putting in the fridge, that works too! Refrigerate overnight or at least six hours. Before serving, remove plastic wrap and cut into individual sandwiches. Feel free to trim the sides (save left over bread for salad croutons!) for a neater look. For a picnic, try some brown parchment paper wrapped around and tie with a string! *You can use purchased roasted peppers, but pat dry with a paper towel. If making your own, place halved peppers skin side up on a broiling pan and broil until skin blisters and is very well charred. Can also char on a hot grill. Put into a ziplock plastic bag for 10 minutes. Remove and wash off the skin and slice. Recipe adapted from www.seasonsandsuppers.ca.

What’s in Season? Farm Fresh Spring Greens Spring
greens cover a variety of leafy vegetables, including kale, spinach, collard, mustard, chard, dandelion greens, escarole, bok choy, endive, arugula and more. Traditionally spring greens were the first leafy greens that that came up after the winter season, most often a type of cabbage. They were a staple of the early growing season, strong in taste, boiled 3 to 4 minutes until bright green and tender with butter and lemon. Today, greens are a healthy key ingredient in smoothies. Spring greens have come to include various young lettuces. Bags of spring greens generally include baby lettuces and spinach, are much milder to the taste and more often used in salads. A great addition to any diet they offer a high content of vitamin K and calcium to help build bone strength. They’re rich in vitamin C, iron, niacin, riboflavin, antioxidants, manganese folate and dietary fiber. Basically, When purchasing leafy greens, look for crisp leaves, filled with deep color. Avoid yellowed or wilted leaves. To store, thoroughly wash leaves and spin or towel dry. Wrap in a thin towel or paper towel and place in an airtight ziplock bag or a closed plastic container. Most fresh greens will last about a week in the refrigerator. To freeze hardier greens for smoothies, remove leaves from stem, tear in pieces and store airtight in a zip lock bag.

No Time to Cook by Linda L. Austin
“...no one is born a great cook, one learns by doing.” Julia Child, “My Life in France” Everyone is busy, and retirement, if it’s done correctly, does not afford more free time, just time for different activities. What we do with our time, whether in the long run time spent is meaningful, is the important thing. “Meaningful” is a personal term. Playing cards can look like wasting time to one person but mind exercising fun for another. Time spent cooking a special meal may sometimes seem like a waste of time when everyone gobbles the food and rushes off. Why not serve crackers and cheese or fix-your-own sandwich to fill the tummy? Time spent cooking can be either that waste of time, a pleasure, or a necessity. My grandmother often said, “Don’t expect to go into the kitchen an hour ahead of time and put on a good meal.” She was a wonderful cook, serving comfort food that we all loved. However, in spite of modern conveniences, working parents have full schedules and have to make choices with priorities. Kitchen time often gets appropriately sifted to the bottom of the list, with attending children’s activities or helping with homework rising in importance.

You have a quick dish that looks and tastes gourmet. Use the 20 minutes to make a salad and cook frozen corn. One of our favorite meals is salmon. I have discovered you can top salmon fillets with almost anything, and you have an impressive dish. Spread leftover cranberry sauce or chutney, smidgens of jelly or preserves you need to use up, sour cream mixed with cocktail sauce, or leftover vegetables over the fillets and cook for 15 minutes at 450º. I always cook more than I need for salmon salad; the topping simply mixes in with the mayonnaise mixture for distinctive flavors. Sometimes my quick meal is a can of Progresso Clam Chowder doctored up with ¼ cup of either half and half or cream and a whole can of minced clams with juice. Slices of cantaloupe complete the meal. Cooking is usually a pleasure for me, a beloved hobby. Paul and I eat well, but occasionally even I want to simply “slap” some food on the table to fill the belly. In truth, most of my meals take about 30 minutes to prepare, always less than an hour for week day meals, but the efficiency requires some forethought. Spending some time researching and asking for recipes to have on hand, knowing what you will prepare before you rush into the kitchen, and planning ahead to have the ingredients available are necessities.

A Taste of Summer
by Roberta Korte
before dangerous bacteria begins to grow, less if the sun is heating up. Olive oil and vinegar adds flexibility to outdoor eating.
Summer and strawberries just go together. As a child growing up in El Cajon, I remember my mom taking my sister and me to the huge strawberries fields in East County. You could take home as many strawberries as you could carry. For every one strawberry we put in the basket, we ate two!
Let your taste buds escape to a summer day in Tuscany with this easy, healthy and delicious pasta salad. Filled with sweet, juicy strawberries, this pasta salad, tossed with olive oil and balsamic vinegar instead of mayonnaise, is great for any summer picnic or party. Items made with mayonnaise can last about two hours out of the fridge
It is always a healthy choice to use olive oil and balsamic vinegar based dressings. Olive oil has a lengthy list of health benefits and has been used for thousands of years as a preservative, keeping food from oxidizing, and discouraging pests. The acidic environment in balsamic vinegar discourages bacterial growth. Balsamic vinegar regulates blood sugar, helps with digestion and is high in antioxidants too. So now it is time to sit back, relax and enjoy the lazy days of summer with fun family picnics at the beach or concerts in the park.
