Lyme disease can’t keep Manotick baker down emma.jackson@metroland.com

News - Veronique Ayling has been dreaming of her own cupcake shop for the better part of a decade. The Greely resident grew up in the Laurentians baking with her grandmother, but instead of opening her own shop she joined the Canadian Armed Forces, where she works in its inves-

tigations unit. But since the start of a lengthy battle with Lyme disease she and her husband have decided it’s time to finally chase her dream. Ayling will make the goodies, while business-minded Mike will manage the books. After six months of planning, V’s Cupcakes opened its doors on Manotick Main Street on Tuesday, Aug. 19. The vintage-inspired shop

will sell as many as 20 cupcake flavours on weekends, with staples available throughout the week. Wedding cakes, cookies, brownies and scones will also line the shelves, and Ayling said she plans to cater events, as well. “We’ll be unbeatable as a team,” said Mike. “I’ve tested more cupcakes than I can count.” But the new store is just icing on the cake as the Ayling family tries to conclude a terrifying chapter of their life. Exactly two years before opening her shop, the fit, energetic mother of three suddenly found herself barely able to function. She was dizzy, thirstier than she’d ever been before and drop-dead tired – unheard of for the “energizer bunny” who did crossfit workouts sometimes twice a day. “It really happened overnight,” said the 39-year-old.

Moving forward the only choice for Greely couple Continued from the front

in 2009 to treat Lyme disease patients. McShane had contracted Lyme herself, and was appalled to discover doctors in Quebec wouldn’t treat her – and she wasn’t the only one. “Patients who had seen the same doctor for 25 years said ‘I have Lyme’ and they just said, ‘I don’t want to see you anymore,’� she said. The problem, McShane said, is that there have been two standards of care for treating Lyme: an older one that simply allowed doctors to treat Lyme as they saw fit, and another from the Infectious Diseases Association of America, which says Lyme shouldn’t be treated long-term. This recommendation comes from a series of cases in which patients failed to recover after long-term courses of antibiotics, McShane said. “The issue is they did these

Mike started planning the cupcake shop. The couple was busy taking trips to Montreal and Toronto to buy equipment for the shop, but Ayling was becoming more and more fatigued. “By April, I couldn’t drive my car,� Ayling said. She was back to square one. She continued planning her shop on her laptop from bed, between long naps and periods of mental fog. “I was able to do a lot online,� Ayling said. “My best friends were my legs.� But the many doctors she saw didn’t have nearly as much faith in her illness as her friends. “Some doctors will look at you and say it’s all in your head,� she said. That is, until she discovered Dr. Maureen McShane. The US-born doctor lives in Montreal, but opened a practice in Plattsburgh, New York

studies and said these people did not improve, but they did not give them high enough doses of antibiotics or the right combination of antibiotics, and they did not treat co-infections,� McShane said. In Canada, several prominent doctors have lost their medical licenses for prescribing antibiotics for longer than the standard one month period, despite the fact that Lyme can take two or three years of antibiotic treatment to fully cure. Until this June, when the New York senate passed a bill protecting doctors from persecution based on their treatment methods, McShane was risking her medical license every day to treat the approximately 950 Lyme patients currently in her care. There was no question it was the right thing to do. “It’s a real moral issue,� McShane said. “When I got it, my whole world changed and

After two days struggling to get through her days at work, she went to the military hospital, but the doctor didn’t recognize the signs for what they were: Lyme. The doctor refused to prescribe antibiotics, and Ayling’s health continued to decline. Countless tests, including physical tasks to measure her failing heart, were unable to shed light on the cause. “I went through hell and back during those tests,� Ayling said. “I thought I would die on the spot, some of them.� She even tested for Lyme, but the results came back negative – as many falsely do, according to a Health Canada bulletin. By November 2012, Mike was demanding antibiotics for his wife. “I’m watching her health going down and down, and one

morning I remember looking at her in bed and she was beyond pale,� he said. “I thought, my God, I’m watching my wife die.� Finally, a doctor agreed to give her a month-long course of antibiotics, followed by a second. By early 2013 Ayling was feeling more energetic, but her heart function had plummeted below 40 per cent. Intensive rehab got it back up to 51 per cent, but poor heart functionality is a reality Ayling still faces today. “I don’t think I will get back to where I was, because my heart was attacked,� she said. “The damage is irreversible.� Having recovered as best as possible but still unsure what had caused her illness, Ayling returned to work that August, a year after Lyme took hold. She was feeling almost back to normal by the time January 2014 arrived, and she and

there was a doctor willing to risk his license to treat me. So how could turn around and not do the same thing?� McShane takes a holistic approach, demanding her patients eat clean – preferably gluten-free, as many Lyme patients develop gluten intolerances – and prescribing herbal and vitamin supplements alongside effective antibiotics. She said she fully believes that even the most drastic, chronic Lyme cases can achieve a 100 per cent recovery on this plan. Ayling will start seeing McShane in September, abandoning the Canadian health care system to pay out of pocket over the border – as much as $10,000 a year if extra costs like travel, time off, tests and lifestyle changes are factored in. She finally got a positive Lyme test from a lab in the US this June, and has started antibiotics once again. “It’s been a heck of a road,� Ayling said, noting her dream business is more than just cute cupcakes. “Mike and this business is what kept me alive.�

News - In this modern age, no good piece of gossip takes very long to make its way across social media. One hundred years ago, the best bits of hometown news could take days to reach the front line, where thousands of young Canadians were living a daily nightmare in the trenches of World War I. Like many soldiers, Metcalfe’s own Private Elmo Sully kept up a steady stream of letter writing to his girl back home, Fannie Iveson, a fellow student at Metcalfe Continuation School. Those 100-year-old letters have now been collected into an interactive website and print collection, called Private Sully Goes to War, in an effort to help modern-day students connect with their hometown history. Project lead Jane Cooper said the letters are surprisingly accessible. “It’s a high school boy writing to his girl,� said Cooper. “They’re written in a very young voice.� They’re also fascinating for the details they reveal and conceal about his experience. “You can sense a lot of selfcensorship,� Cooper said. “He didn’t want to tell Fannie the nasty stuff.� That ‘stuff’ includes some of the bloodiest battles of the war: the Battle of the Somme and Passchendaele. Instead, many of Sully’s letters focus on town gossip and events, including how much he’ll miss the now-defunct Ottawa Exhibition. “Do you remember a cer-

other, and how quickly the letters got to each other,� Cooper said. “They’re social networking. It’s just the technology that’s changed.� it’s changing in the schools, too; textbooks are becoming an outdated resource, and students are demanding digital media in the classroom.

tual,� Lamont said. “There were so many, many moments when I would just fall into prayer.� Lamont was walking the Way of St. James, a pilgrimage to Santiaga de Compostela where Jesus’ apostle St. James the Great is said to be buried, to mark her 60th birthday as well as the 125th anniversary of All Saints Anglican Church on Parkway Road. Also called the Camino Frances, the pilgrimage has been used since the ninth century, and was one of the most important pilgrimage routes in the Middle Ages. Today, the route is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and attracts thousands of pilgrims each year. Lamont’s aim was to raise $8,000 for the church, which faces mounting maintenance bills. “I am very blessed and I have more than I need in this life, so I thought what a way to give back to my community, my spiritual family,� Lamont said. She embarked on her pilgrimage alone, but the wellworn trail offered up plenty of friends to help her along the way.

Road trip adventure great for the soul that filled her with joy: pilgrims openly praying on the trail, for example, or the buzz of a bee which, being so secluded, was the only thing in earshot. Lamont reached the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela on Aug. 6 alongside two women she met on the road, Christiane and Armelle, both from France. It was a celebration of sorts, but also a sombre moment for pilgrims to embrace the statue of St. James the Great and visit his crypt below the church. “At the end of the road, you embrace death,” Lamont said. It wasn’t until a few days after she had arrived home to Greely and got her walking sticks out for the first time that she came to realize what her journey had really been about.

NOT ENOUGH HOMES FOR CATS AND DOGS

This cat should have been spayed. Spaying/Neutering prevents the births of cats and dogs for whom no homes can be found. In Canada, tens of thousands of cats and dogs are put to death annually in pounds and shelters because there are not enough homes for them. And how many more die on the streets from sickness, injury and starvation? PLEASE SPAY AND NEUTER YOUR ANIMALS.

“The camino is a metaphor for life,” she said. “We all come from different backgrounds, and we walk the road. We have choices, we are given obstacles . you have down moments and euphoric moments, too. And you meet people on the way who become your friends, and some try to take advantage of you, and some

you leave behind. You share meals and laughter and tears; you look after each other, and ... you come to embrace death at the end of a well-journeyed life.” And she’s taken home some more mundane lessons, as well, such as the weight of carrying water – a fact Lamont has come to realize many women in the world know all

Some days were certainly a challenge. Being summer, the heat could be nearly unbearable, particularly on a steep incline or on the flat meseta tablelands famous for their stark and unyielding countryside. “It was challenging, and that’s where prayer kicked in,” she said. “You’ve maybe got two to three km to go that day, but you know St. Christopher’s leading the way and St. Anthony is looking after your health. It occupies your mind.” One day she came close to giving in to temptation, when a poorly marked sign had taken her a few kilometres out of her way on a particularly stifling afternoon.

Knowing she was running low on water, she made it to the main road and decided she would hitch-hike the last four or five km into the village. As a car came along, she waved at it as she had seen others do – the universal thumb-up didn’t seem to apply – but the driver simply waved in return, with a big smile, and kept driving. “Well, that served me right for trying to skip the last four km,” Lamont laughed. She also struggled to keep her temper in check when faced with the realities of the modern pilgrimage; not all walkers on the Camino trail are there for spiritual reasons, and some had a tendency to blare their music just as she was taking in a particularly moving scene. But there were other sounds

too well. “I have such an admiration and appreciation for women and children who have to fetch and carry water,” she said. She’ll be supporting potable water and community well projects as a result, she said. And she had some practical advice for future pilgrims: pack lighter than you think you should, and go at your own pace. Donations in support of Lamont’s journey can be sent to All Saints Anglican Church at 7103 Parkway Rd. in Greely.

Soldier’s life was a hard one Continued from page 3

Several media and design students at Algonquin College helped the pair design a tablet-friendly website complete with scans of the original letters, typed transcripts, photos of Sully and his friends and even a map and timeline of Sully’s whereabouts during the war. “The website is all about

being able to be very interactive,” Way said. “It becomes less abstract, and it goes beyond the textbook.” Cooper said the book has been in progress since she found the letters in the Osgoode Township Museum nearly 20 years ago. She thought then that she would turn them into a book, but it was only at the end of 2013 when Metcalfe resident Mar-

garet Rivard had transcribed the letters that Cooper decided it was time. She did hours of research into Sully’s regiments so she could fill in the gaps of his whereabouts and experiences to create the book. But it was clear that to become a success it would need to be a digital creation first and foremost. “The book becomes a teaser

CHEER GLOBAL Achilles Tendonitis SUPPORT LOCAL

Canadian Certified team of Pedorthists at BioPed Ottawa. http:// w w w. b i o p e d . c o m / locations/locations. asp?id=46 The two muscles which form the Achilles cross three joints –the knee, ankle and subatalar joint and insert into the calcaneus. Plantar flexing the foot or tendon allows for propulsion, enabling us run or jump. A bursa between the Achilles tendon and calcaneus cushions and lubricates the tendon. When inflammation of the bursa occurs alongside insertional Achilles Tendinopathy (AT) this is known as “Haglund’s Syndrome”. Non-insertional AT is more common, encountered due to an area of hypovascularity near the calcaneal insertion. Insertion of the tendon into the calcaneus means the calcaneal eversion at the subtalar joint, commonly referred to as flat feet, stressed the tendon, and in most cases, tendon degeneration is located at the medial aspect.

While many of us have heard of Achilles Heel, perhaps we are not as familiar with the term Achilles Tendinopathy.

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 3 PM

SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 3 PM

Achilles Tendinopathy (AT) refers to the inflammatory and degenerative changes to the Achilles tendon. The gastrocnemius and soleus muscles combine to form the Achilles, which is the strongest tendon in the body. Yet despite its strength, it has a weakness—it can frequently be injured. That predisposition to injury is attributed to the anatomy of the tendon and biomechanics of the foot.

forces up to eight times greater than a person’s body weight. AT pain is a direct result of tendon degeneration. There is a 52 per cent chance that an elite long distance runner will develop an Achilles injury at some stage of their life. Patients with AT can be treated with foot orthotics used in a combination of other modalities, such as physical therapy. BioPed offers a variety of products and services including custom orthotics, assessment and biomechanical gait analysis by Canadian Certified Pedorthists. BioPed carries a wide variety of orthopaedic-quality and fashionable footwear from sandals to work boots.

Please stop for school buses

P

arents across the city are breathing a collective sigh of relief, as the final days tick off the calendar announcing the start of the school year. On Tuesday, Sept. 2, tens of thousands of children will stream into Ottawa’s streets, returning to school on foot or by car or bus. Motorists will begin seeing a lot of yellow starting next week. Fleets of school buses will flood our streets as children return to elementary and high schools. Most schools welcome students back the day after Labour Day, but the French public and Catholic boards open a week earlier. The colour yellow in motorist’s language always translates to one word: caution. Motorists must keep their eyes open for children waiting on street corners. Kids will be kids, which means they are in constant motion. We must always remember the first rule of defensive driving: expect the unexpected. Children tend to offer a lot of unexpected behaviour, which occasionally involves a mad dash across the street chasing a ball or friend waiting at a bus stop. Motorists would do well to drive a little more

slowly the first few weeks of September. They might also want to reacquaint themselves with the rules of driving when approaching a stopped school bus with its lights flashing. The flashing lights mean cars must come to a halt to allow children to board the bus. It also allows children and parents to safely cross the street. By law, traffic in both directions must stop anytime a school bus is stopped with its overhead alternating signal lights flashing. If the danger of hitting a child with your vehicle isn’t reason enough, failing to stop for a school bus can result in fines up to $2,000 upon conviction and six demerit points given to a motorist’s driver’s license. And that’s only for a first conviction. Each subsequent offence can result in fines as high as $4,000 together with six demerit points and possible imprisonment for up to six months. Staying alert while behind the wheel and being aware of the rules of the road governing school buses is everyone’s responsibility. We’re all winners if we educate ourselves about the rules of the road and school bus safety.

Canada Post’s journey down the slippery slope

W

e’ve had lots of exposure to NIMBY – the Not in My Back Yard – phenomenon in which people rally to protect their neighbourhoods, sometimes selfishly, often nobly. But the front yard is not immune either. Nor the side, if you happen to be on a corner. We’re seeing it already in Kanata, where there is controversy over the placing of the first of the new community mailboxes by Canada Post. There is no perfect place to put one of these. It will always be right where there is no place to park, or right in front of someone’s house, or too far to get to on foot or too close to something else. Some people are annoyed and many more will be as the process of dropping home delivery and in-

stalling more community mailboxes continues over the next year or so. The annoyance factor is accentuated by the fact that nobody wants these things in the first place. How could they? People are used to reaching outside the front door for the mail. Now they have to go somewhere else for it. At least Canada Post, unlike many enterprises, is not billing this reduction in service as something that will serve the customer better.

It will serve Canada Post better, is the idea. Eliminating door-to-door delivery will enable it to cut costs and become more viable financially. (Those with long memories will recall that Canada Post’s mandate used to be to serve the public, before it was changed to require the corporation to turn a profit.) The irony of the community mailbox conversion is that it could make Canada Post less likely to turn a profit than it was before. Most obviously, Canada Post is losing good will over the conversion and that can’t help any enterprise. If people are mad at Canada Post, they will be more likely to use a competitor’s services.

the mail they receive. As you know, few people write personal letters any more. Consequently, they buy fewer stamps and Canada Post must lean more heavily on distributing flyers and what unsympathetic customers refer to as junk mail. Up to now, nobody has minded that much. The advertising that forms a large part of the mail we receive is an irritant, but it’s no trouble. We take it out of the mailbox and throw it away. Now we will have to walk down the street or perhaps even get into our cars to retrieve something we didn’t want in the first place. Won’t that change our attitudes toward junk mail? Won’t we demand that Canada Post do something to reduce it? And if Canada Post is forced by public opinion to cut back on the advertising it distributes, that will cut into Canada Post’s revenues, further undermining the financial position EDITORIAL: MANAGING EDITOR: 4HERESA &RITZ THERESA FRITZ METROLAND COM NEWS EDITOR: Joe Morin JOE MORIN METROLAND COM POLITICAL REPORTER: Laura Mueller LAURA MUELLER METROLAND COM REPORTER: %MMA *ACKSON EMMA JACKSON METROLAND COM

Ottawa raises flag to mark pride week American embassy will also fly rainbow flag Brier Dodge brier.dodge@metroland.com

News - The rainbow colours made their way up the flag mast at city hall on Aug. 18 to mark Capital Pride, a week-long festival

in the city. Mayor Jim Watson noted it’s the second time in 2014 the rainbow flag has flown at city hall; the flag also flew during the Sochi Olympics. “We have the power to

foster that change at the local level and the city has made it a priority,” he said. “How better to demonstrate that Ottawa is a city for everyone…but by raising the rainbow flag.” Ottawa South MP John Fraser also spoke at the flag raising, and said all the Liberal MPPs from the Ottawa

An excellent business opportunity is now available to established retailers in Metcalfe. The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) is seeking a responsible, customer-focused retailer to operate an LCBO Agency Store in Metcalfe. To qualify, the applicant must have an existing, currently operating retail business in the community and commit to operating the Agency store within established LCBO guidelines. To facilitate the sale of beverage alcohol products, the operator may be required to enter into separate commercial arrangements with the LCBO and domestic beer suppliers. The successful applicant will also be required to participate in a special LCBO server-training program to ensure the responsible sale of beverage alcohol products. Since 1962, the LCBO has authorized more than 200 Agency stores to serve communities that have requested service but where the local population is too small to support a regular LCBO or beer store. These Agency stores are operated by local retailers within their existing retail business. Agency store contracts are normally awarded for a five-year term. In communities where there is currently an Agency store, as the contract nears expiry, the LCBO will take into consideration the fact that new businesses in the community may have been established and will allow an opportunity for all businesses in the community to compete for the next five-year term. Operating an LCBO Agency Store provides a retailer with an excellent opportunity to increase revenue and attract customers while providing local residents with beverage alcohol services. Agency stores also deliver economic benefits to the community in many cases through job creation and increased customer traffic for local merchants. Interested businesses must request by mail the application package for this competition before end of business day, Friday, September 5, 2014 and must quote the following information: RFP# 2014-118 Metcalfe Request for Application Package Procurement and Contract Management, LCBO 1 Yonge Street, Suite 1404 Toronto, ON M5E 1E5 Please note: An application fee of $100 must be included with your request in order to receive an application package. Make the cheque or money order payable to the LCBO only. In order to be considered for this business opportunity, applicants must submit to LCBO Procurement and Contract Management a completed proposal in the required format before the closing date and time, Friday, September 19, 2014, 3 p.m. local time. Late submissions will not be accepted and will be returned unopened.

RETAIL BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY FOR AN AGENCY STORE IN METCALFE, LCBO RFP #2014-118 METCALFE

We have the power to foster that change at the local level...

U.S. ambassador to Canada, Bruce Heyman and his wife, Vicki. Heyman said the embassy will fly the rainbow flag for a month in support of the event. The U.S. embassy is a community partner of Capital Pride week and sponsored two Americans to come to Ottawa.

Cason Crane, the first openly LGBT man to climb the “seven summits – the highest mountain of each continent – will act as the international parade marshal. The embassy also brought Stephanie Battaglino, an activist for transgender issues and the corporate vice president at New York Life Insurance Company. The pride parade was scheduled to run Aug. 24 along Bank Street. Advertorial

Ema Lee Fashions: 11 years and counting

It was a hot June night in 2002 and everything was quiet in the small hamlet of Balderson. No one knew that in one house, there was a deal going down! Two men sat facing each other at the kitchen table in Mr. George Myers’ home. The conversation was quick and right to the point. Would Mr. Myers sell his old general store or not? That was the question. The sun was going down. The clocks on his wall ticked to their own tock. The silence had been broken. Finally a deal had been made on the back of a cigarette pack. The transformation began on the old general store and eleven years later Ema Lee Fashions is still a thriving, successful business. It is located seven kilometers north of Perth on Hwy 511 and open seven days a week. Gerry McSweeney and Emily Desjardine had no idea that the business would become such a huge success. “We are known all over for being the largest ladies clothing store in the Ottawa Valley and for being a destination shopping spot” Desjardine said. “The store is also known for it’s plethora of ladies apparel, swim suits, purses and men’s shirts”.

Adjoining Ema Lee Fashions in the “Downtown Balderson Complex” you will find Balderson Fine Foods, well known for its homemade ice-cream and the Anne and Vanessa’s Bakery. Since their last anniversary Emily and Gerry are very happy to announce and welcome the new proprietor and trained Chef Adam Porter of the Balderson Café. Adam’s theory: “Our philosophy is simple freshness is our commitment”. The Café is open from 10:00am to 5:00pm and the response from all of the customers has been extremely complimentary and positive. Emily and Gerry highly recommend that you drop in for lunch and don’t forget to try his homemade desserts…you won’t be disappointed! Come and discover Downtown Balderson!

Master Yoda’s Ottawa adventure comes to an end Special to the Manotick News

News - After a long, grueling five weeks, of searching for their missing family cat, Yoda has been returned to his family. The ill 11 year - old cat was removed from his home in Kemptville, sometime around Thursday July 10th, by a stranger intent on helping him. Exactly five weeks

Patricia McDonald. The family is grateful for all of the support they have received over the last five weeks. “It seems like everyone from Prescott to Ottawa was searching for Yoda. Thanks to the people in our communities, their leads, phone calls, and emails we were able to bring our Yoda home� said McDonald.

to the day, he was returned to the family in good spirits and is doing very well. The family still does not know the whole story of what went on with Yoda over the past five weeks, but they are grateful that he was well taken care of during his adventure. “The lady that took him gave him fluids, force fed him, and ensured that he was comfortable and taken care of,� said

9%!23

Yoda’s early morning prowls will now be restricted to the length of a rope in his front yard. There will be no more wandering around the neighbourhood at his own free will. He’s home now and the family is in agreement that they are not going to risk losing him ever again. “We just want to thank everyone for putting up posters, looking for Yoda when you were out and about, and for your phone calls and emails. We never gave up hope and it’s nice to know that the people in our community and beyond never gave up hope, either.�

Opera Lyra to open 30th season Four performances of Puccini’s Tosca Manotick News Staff

News - A tale of deception, betrayal and courage will mark the start of Opera Lyra’s 30th season. The opera company announced its latest

season’s performance will be Puccini’s Tosca, beginning on Sept. 6,8,10 and 13. Starring as Floria Tosca is Canadian soprano Michele Capalbo, while tenor David Pomeroy will play her lover, Mario Cavaradossi. Tyrone Paterson, the company’s former artistic director said stars Capalbo and Pomeroy voices match perfectly.

The Manotick News published a series of articles on my business. Now everyone knows how great we are!

“They are the leading Canadian interpreters of these roles and Todd Thomas has just the right quality of voice for the role of the dark and dangerous Scarpia,” he said. Paterson will return to Opera Lyra as the guest conductor to lead the Tosca company and the National Arts Centre Orchestra. The opera is a political thriller, set in Rome during Napoleon’s invasion of Italy in 1805. Pre-opera chats will be available, hosted by the Opera Lyra Guild, free for ticket holders on

SUBMITTED

Tyrone Paterson returns as guest conductor to lead Opera Lyra’s 30th season debut, Puccini’s Tosca starting on Sept. 6. Sept. 6, 10 and 13 in English and Sept. 8 in French at 7 p.m. in the Mezzanine at the National Arts Centre.

other called it character building. My sister Audrey had another name for it, which she told me not to repeat in front of Mother. Every time I asked for something as simple as new hair ribbons and Mother reminded me there was a Depression on, and no money for frivolities, she called it character building. When Marguirite did something nasty to me, Mother called it character building. When my brother Emerson did me some dastardly deed, Mother called it character building. I figured I had enough character building in the 1930s to last me into the next century. And so it was when the old aunt who appeared unannounced at least twice a year, and Audrey and I had to give up our bed upstairs, and sleep on the narrow creton couch in the kitchen, foot to foot -- Mother called it character building. The summer was beastly hot that year. The upstairs was like

MARY COOK Mary Cook’s Memories an oven. Even with the windows wide open in the boy’s room and the hall, the slight breeze did little to cool it off. And when Auntie arrived, she went right upstairs like she owned the place, and put her tapestry bag on the chair and laid claim to the bed Audrey and I shared. We were doomed for the creton couch in the kitchen. Apart from the narrowness of the couch, sleeping in the kitchen was not a hardship in the summer, because the Findlay Oval had already been moved to the summer kitchen, quilts hung on the windows in the daytime to keep the sun out, and the kitchen became the coolest room in the house. It was the

narrow couch that was the bane of our existence. Out in the summer kitchen was an old wire couch, the kind where one part sat on top of the other when it wasn’t in use, but when pulled apart became a double bed. Moving the cook stove to the summer kitchen, left one wall bare, and Audrey asked Mother why the old wire couch couldn’t be moved into the regular kitchen for Audrey and me. Mother hardly gave the idea a moment’s consideration (she was busy cooking dandelion greens, a favourite dish of Aunty’s), and said she saw no reason at all why the couch couldn’t be moved into the main

kitchen. The boys could do that little chore when they came in for supper. After Audrey and I had redded up the kitchen, the three brothers dragged the wire couch into the coolest room in the house, and we hauled in the thin felt fold-over mattress. We didn’t even bother with sheets, so glad were we to have someplace to sleep other than the narrow creton couch, and a cool place at that. The walls of that old house were paper thin. And before we fell asleep, Audrey and I heard Aunty get up several times to use the chamber pot, walk across the floor to the window, and let out long and purposeful sighs. She also had the habit of talking to herself, almost whispers, but loud enough that we could hear her from our couch downstairs. “Whew..hot...boy... whew,” we heard long into the night.

Connected to your community

Cheese tostaditas with nectarine salsa an easy appetizer

The new Fall-Winter Recreation eGuide is now available online at ottawa.ca offering thousands of courses with an incredible variety of fun things to get involved with during the fall season. The City of Ottawa’s recreation and culture program lineup is sure to please! Keeping active is easy when you join a sports league or try a new game. Swing a racquet and connect with a badminton birdie, squash ball, tennis ball or pickelball. Do deep knee bends as you dig for the volleyball, or run down the court dribbling the basketball around your opponents. Learn some fancy footwork as you move the soccer ball down the ďŹ eld, or skate loops around the other team as you dip and swerve with the puck.

Lifestyle - These colourful bites are a hit with all ages. Make and refrigerate ingredients ahead of time, then have friends or family help fill the cups at serving time. For a faster version, omit the cheese filling, double the salsa and let everyone help themselves. Preparation time: 45 minutes. Makes 24 appetizers.

Our variety of martial arts programs including karate, judo, jiu-jitsu and taekwondo can help increase your self-conďŹ dence and stamina. The movement and balance will keep you strong and centered. Dancing is great exercise as you move to the beat of the music. Learn to trip the light fantastic and pump up the cardio. Whether it’s hip hop, belly dance or hot salsa, you will have fun learning the moves with your new friends. From preschoolers to seniors, we have dance classes for all.

INGREDIENTS

• 125 g (4 oz) light cream cheese, softened • 1 clove garlic, minced • 4 ml (3/4 tsp) dried oregano leaves • 4 ml (3/4 tsp) each ground cumin and chili powder • 24 corn tortilla cups (scoops) Salsa: • 250 ml (1 cup) diced nectarines or peaches • 125 ml (1/2 cup) finely diced sweet red pepper • 75 ml (1/3 cup) minced fresh coriander • 50 ml (1/4 cup) finely diced red onion

Join us in the pool for water fun and movement. Our 18 indoor pools offer learn to swim programs for all ages. Don’t forget to practice your new skills during public swim times! AquaďŹ tness blends ďŹ tness programs with the beneďŹ ts of swimming and can be done in either deep or shallow water with great results. Our exercise classes are a great way to get active your way, every day. Classes are offered throughout the city, morning, noon and night. Sign up for a once-a-week class in your neighbourhood, close to work, or with your friends. Or, why not purchase a ďŹ tness membership and choose from a variety of workouts that provide you with the exibility to work around your busy schedule?

Fall classes start soon!

• 15 ml (1 tbsp) minced jalapeno pepper • Grated zest of 1 lime • 5 ml (1 tsp) fresh lime juice PREPARATION

In a small bowl, blend together the cheese, garlic, oregano, cumin and chili powder until smooth. Salsa: In a medium bowl, combine the nectarines, sweet pepper, coriander, onion, jalapeno pepper, lime zest and juice. To serve, spoon or pipe 5 ml (1 tsp) of the cheese filling into each cup (scoop) and top with 10 ml (2 tsp) of salsa. Tips: For easy piping, put cheese mixture into plastic bag, and seal and snip the corner of the bag to create small opening. If making the cheese filling ahead of time, cover the mixture and refrigerate. Soften it in a microwave before filling cups. Foodland Ontario

Character building in the depression Continued from page 18

When Aunty came downstairs in the morning, she didn’t look at all happy. The house had been cleared of Father and the boys, and Mother was bustling around the kitchen, already thinking of the next meal for the table. Aunty was in the same long black dress she came in. The only thing that was missing was the starched white collar

and the bonnet. She was fanning herself with a copy of the Renfrew Mercury. “Sure is hot upstairs,â€? she said. “Not a bit of air anywhere. Hardly slept a wink.â€? Mother, Audrey and me were in the summer kitchen getting into the day’s work. Audrey, who was already clearing up the breakfast dishes, and setting out the dish pan of hot soapy water on the table while Mother bustled about ďŹ lling a

soup bowl with porridge for Aunty, gave me a poke while passing me, “I’ll give you a nickel if you tell Aunty that’s what we call character building in this here house.� Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?
