Tis the season to support small business

Small-business owners have been in my holiday psyche more these days. As a board member with Be the Change Foundation, we offer classes in the spring and fall for women who are thinking about starting their own businesses or building on an existing one. Each session starts with a local entrepreneur sharing their story. We’ve heard from Lora Gookin from Gateau Bakery Café and Tea Room and Lee Owsley from Latitudes Fair Trade and Sunny Reynolds from Biotrek Adventure Travels and Michelle DeWitt from The Farm Brewery at Broad Run and Cammie Fuller from The Open Book. All of them represent small-business success stories. They are thriving and growing. They are also part of a larger community of small businesses in Virginia numbering nearly 725,000. Small businesses in Virginia employ 1.5 million residents and make up 99.5 percent of all businesses statewide. Our local small businesses are in pretty good company and it speaks volumes. Their success depends on the communities they serve, like ours, buying their products or using their services. Shop Small is a nationwide movement that celebrates small businesses every day and helps communities thrive and stay vibrant. This Saturday, Nov. 30, is a day focused on supporting the small businesses in our community. 2019 marks the 10th annual Small Business Saturday – an idea created by credit card company American Ex-

FROM WHERE I SIT ANITA SHERMAN press during an economic recession. The idea was to bolster small business by targeting the Saturday after Thanksgiving and encourage communities across the country to join in. Each year the movement has grown, as has support for small businesses looking to make their mark. There are obvious benefits to shopping small and shopping local -- like keeping our money closer to home. While Amazon has made it easy to shop online, it can suck the life from small businesses who depend on folks stopping by. I still find it very satisfying to take a stroll on Main Street in Warrenton or Marshall or Davis Street in Culpeper or Old Town Manassas or shops in Middleburg. All part of the Piedmont charm. Every time that you take a yoga class or buy a piece of artwork or jewelry, or decide to dine at Café Torino or Denim and Pearls, Claire’s at the Depot or Field and Main, you’re making a difference. Small acts yield big results. We’re into another holiday season. Christmas decorations have lined the aisles for weeks in some large retail stores. As you’re starting to create your shopping lists and look to find those unique, one-of-a-kind items, keep your local shops in mind. I’d suggest getting out and supporting the people and places that you love this Saturday. And while you’re out there, snap a photo, post pictures and tweets. Use the hashtag #ShopSmall. Consider writing a positive review on Yelp. Be part of a growing movement to preserve and honor our small towns and the places and people in them. It’s a rich and rewarding legacy that we have the power to continue. Merry Christmas and happy shopping. See you on Main Street! Reach Anita Sherman at asherman@fauquier.com

Holiday Gift Guide 2019

From our heart to your home When we asked Brian Noyes at the Red Truck Bakery for a good holiday choice from his latest cookbook, he suggested the Upside-Down Pear Gingerbread Cake. His book, “Red Truck Bakery Cookbook: Gold-Standard Recipes from America’s Favorite Rural Bakery,” now in its second printing, would make a great gift for friends and family if it isn’t already in your collection. You can find copies at either of the Red Truck Bakery locations in Warrenton or Marshall. Enjoy!

Upside-Down Pear Gingerbread Cake Makes one 9-inch cake Ingredients The topping: Nonstick cooking spray Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dusting topping: 4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter, melted 3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar 3 tablespoons chopped crystallized ginger 3 ripe medium pears, peeled, halved, and cored For the cake: 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger 2 teaspoons orange zest ½ cup granulated sugar 1¼ cups unbleached all-purpose flour, sifted ½ teaspoon baking powder ½ teaspoon baking soda ½ teaspoon kosher salt 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon ½ teaspoon ground allspice ¼ teaspoon ground or freshly grated nutmeg 2 teaspoons ground ginger ¼ teaspoon ground cloves 2 large eggs ¾ cup buttermilk ½ cup molasses 2 tablespoons canola oil 1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Coat a 9-inch round cake pan with nonstick spray and dust it with flour, tapping out any excess. To prevent the fruit in the batter from sticking to the pan, line the pan with parchment paper cut to fit and spray the parchment with nonstick spray. 2. Make the topping: Pour the melted butter into the prepared cake pan, tilting it to evenly cover the bottom. Sprinkle the brown sugar and crystallized ginger evenly over the bottom. Holding the pear halves in your palm, slice them lengthwise into ¼-inch-thick slices. Place each half carefully in the pan, rounded-side down, fanning the slices by pressing down. Repeat with each pear half to make a spoke pattern around the pan. 3. Bake for 15 minutes, until the pears look softened and lightly browned. 4. Meanwhile, make the cake: In a small bowl, combine the fresh ginger, orange zest, and granulated sugar and stir with a fork.

Evergreen season

The joy and beauty of a fresh-cut Christmas tree By John Hagarty

Contributing Writer

Artificial Christmas trees are steadily growing in popularity. The first fakes were created some 90 years ago by the Addis Brush Company but did not gain wide acceptance. But since 2004, sales of the imitations in the United States have doubled from nine to 18 million trees. Real trees have held their own during the same period selling about 27 million each holiday season. If you consider there are 36 million more Christmas revelers today than 15 years ago, the artificials are making headway.

It’s understandable.

Artificial trees are now more realistic looking than ever and can “live” for years. The branches are typically made of polyvinyl chloride; think PVC plumbing pipe. And while they cost more initially, amortized over a long-life expectancy they are a good investment. Still, they aren’t the real deal. Folks who walk into a home with a beautifully decorated artificial tree will often know it’s not from Mother Nature’s cupboard. Too perfect. There is also the question of which tree is more environmentally friendly. The pros and cons tend to balance each other out. Many believe cutting a live tree is ecologically harmful but artificial trees made of petroleum-derived plastic will sit in landfills for centuries. Real trees decay in about seven years. Sound arguments prevail on both sides of the issue. There is no right or wrong when Christmas celebrations are in play. Nonetheless, real seems more fun; especially if you can make a family event out of scoring a “needle factory” for the holidays.

Origin

During the Roman era, the mid-winter festival Saturnalia saw houses decorated with wreaths, evergreens and other items now associated with modernday Christmas celebrations. The first actual Christmas trees date to medieval times in early modern-day Germany where the populace brought trees into their homes to help celebrate Christmas. Decorations consisted of colored paper, apples, wafers, tinsel and sweetmeats. At the close of the Middle Ages, the Catholic reli-

gious order of monks and nuns called the Cistercians wrote what many consider the oldest reference to the Christmas tree: “On Christmas eve, you will look for a large branch of green laurel, and you shall reap many red oranges, and place them in the branches that come of the laurel and in every orange you shall put a candle …”. The first mention of the Christmas tree in the United States was in 1836 when an article was published describing a German maid decorating her mistress’s tree. Since 1923, a national Christmas tree has been placed on the Ellipse near the White House. The towering evergreen is decorated with 2,500 lights and is lit by the President in early December.

The farm offers hot cider and other refreshments, which customers can enjoy while have their trees netted and tied to their vehicles. Payment can be made by cash, check or credit cards. For a complete list of Christmas tree farms in Fauquier, Culpeper and Prince William counties, and throughout Northern Virginia visit http://www. pickyourownchristmastree.org/VAxmasnorthern. php.

Go local

Given the popularity of the tradition, it’s not surprising Christmas tree farms have sprung up in most rural areas of the country. Typically, these are small businesses that cater to families in search of the holiday icon. It often becomes a ritual to pack up the kids and spend a day in search of the perfect tree. The farms usually offer both pre-cut and cut-yourown trees. However, the joy of visiting these farms is the time spent roaming the properties looking for a live tree that matches a family’s needs. Here in Fauquier County there are four cut-yourown farms: Aboria in Marshall, Hank’s Christmas trees at the Hartland Farm in Markham, KK Christmas Trees in Marshall, and Stribling Trees at Oldacres Farm in Markham. Jim Stribling is the tree farmer at his Oldacres Farm and knows from holiday trees; his parents farmed both the orchard and tree emporium before he accepted the baton as “tree maven” upon their retirement. “This year we’ll be open the day after Thanksgiving until Christmas each weekend from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.,” said Stribling. “We have hundreds of Fraser pine and White pine trees that families can choose and cut. Customers can bring their saw, or we’ll provide them one.” Stribling underscores he has a variety of trees, from four feet to more than eight feet high. The taller trees are typically harder to find. His farm grows several thousand trees, with hundreds primed each year for gracing living rooms throughout the Piedmont. Holiday Gift Guide 2019

Capture every holiday moment with these picture-perfect tips Courtesy of McClanahan Camera, Warrenton

• Do not make your group too deep to avoid depth of field or focus issues.

To help you snap pictures you’ll treasure for years to come, try these easy to follow pro tips and enjoy.

Look for distractions

Take charge • Put taller people in the back and shorter people on the sides or kneeling in the foreground. • Ask people to raise their chins. • Coordinate clothing if possible.

Choose the time of day and location • Shade can be better than sun to eliminate shadows but note that it can fool your camera meter. • Consider using fill flash outdoors.

Aim for a broad depth of field • Choose a larger number aperture like f11 to allow for more depth of field or more of the photo to be in focus.

• Make sure necklaces and ties are straight. • See that buttons are buttoned, and hair is in place. • Check all four corners of the frame for distractions.

Get everyone to look at the camera and smile • Take many shots. • Take traditional posed shots as well as creative ones. • Silly shots can break the ice and possibly get the group’s attention.

Fill the frame • Leave a little room on the edges and top and bottom to allow for difference picture sizes. • Keep the original uncropped image and crop for the photo size in mind. Remember 8x10 and 5x7 photos do not have the same proportions.

For those quiet Christmas moments Books to enjoy with your children, grandchildren or by yourself By Anita L. Sherman Community Editor

Memory serves me that it was somewhere in my high school years that I became acquainted with O. Henry’s “The Gift of the Magi.” Whether true or not, there is rumor that he wrote it hurriedly because he was past deadline. Whether he penned it quickly or not, it’s clear he knew something about great love. This is a short story that begs rereading and the holidays is a perfect time to do so. Della finished her crying and cleaned the marks of it from her face. She stood by the window and looked out with no interest. Tomorrow would be Christmas Day, and she had only $1.87 with which to buy Jim a gift. She had put aside as much as she could for months, with this result. Twenty dollars a week is not much. Everything had cost more than she had expected. It always happened like that. Only $1.87 to buy a gift for Jim. Her Jim. She had had many happy hours planning something nice for him. Something nearly good enough. Something almost worth the honor of belonging to Jim. Della and Jim are dealing with dwindling finances. Their respective solutions are bittersweet and endearing. Penned in the early 1900s, it’s a story that continues to resonant through the years, it’s a quick read and a good choice if you’d like to be reminded of simpler times and big hearts. An English teacher in Fauquier County for many years, Eileen Burgwyn, shared her thoughts on a memorable holiday read. “One of my favorites to teach in class is ‘A Christmas Memory,’ by Truman Capote. It’s a short story, set in the Depression. Makes me cry at the end, but the final sentence is one of the best in American literature, in my humble opinion,” said Burgwyn of this classic, first published in 1956. It is an autobiographical recollection of Truman Capote’s rural Alabama boyhood and has become a modern-day classic. Another classic that has found its way into film, plays and musicals is Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol.”
