New Circle Investments, EOP Architects, and Wells and Wells Construction broke ground on The Manchester, a new boutique hotel, opening in 2023 in Lexington’s Distillery District. The seven-story hotel is expected to open in 2023 and will include 125 upscale guestrooms, a rooftop bar, an event space, and a café. Mayor Linda Gorton said: “As a member of the City Council, I was one of the first advocates for the Distillery District. I saw what

it could do for our city and our downtown. We are beginning to realize this potential, and The Manchester is a big step forward.” VisitLEX president Mary Quinn Ramer, said the additional space will be needed in the neighborhood, “with the near completion of the expansion of Central Bank Center, construction beginning on the $30+ million Town Branch Park, and the continued enthusiasm for the Kentucky Bourbon Trail and Kentucky Craft Trail”

he University of Kentucky Board of Trustees approved a purchase agreement for $6.9 million to acquire residential parcels across from UK Albert B. Chandler Hospital on South Limestone for the construction of a new outpatient cancer treatment center and advanced ambulatory complex. The parcels, owned by the Chesney family, are located primarily in the 100 block of Conn Terrace, State Street, University Avenue and Waller Avenue.

Kentucky Reads And they’re reading ‘Dear Ann’

entucky Humanities has selected Bobbie Ann Mason’s Dear Ann for its 2022 Kentucky Reads. The novel will be at the center of statewide conversations on nostalgia, the choices we make and how they affect our lives, and thinking back on the road not taken. Kentucky Reads will offer 50 scholarled discussions of Dear Ann to community organizations throughout the Commonwealth. Kentucky Humanities has accumulated a group of scholars who will lead discussion about the themes of the book. Any non-profit organization in Kentucky can host a discussion of Dear Ann for a booking fee of $50 and each host organization will be provided with 15 copies of the novel to share among participating members. Publicity materials to promote the discussion will also be provided. Host organizations will determine if their scheduled discussion will be held in-person or virtually. Bookings will begin on January 1, 2022. “Bobbie Ann Mason’s work has riveted audiences for decades and Dear Ann is no exception,” said Bill Goodman, Kentucky Humanities Executive Director. “We are thrilled to announce Bobbie Ann’s latest book as our 2022 Kentucky Reads selection and look forward to the conversations Dear Ann will bring about throughout the state.” The Vietnam War serves as the background of a love story in the turbulent ’60s in Bobbie Ann Mason’s newest book, Dear Ann. Ann Workman, a smart yet naïve misfit, travels from rural

8 | January 2022 | acemagazinelex.com

Kentucky to attend graduate school in search of education and to fall in love. Many years later, Ann recalls this time of innocence as she faces another life crisis. Seeking escape from her problems, she tries to imagine where she might be if she had chosen differently all those years ago. Bobbie Ann Mason was raised on her family’s dairy farm in western Kentucky. She earned a B.A. in English at the University of Kentucky, an M.A. at the State University of New York at Binghamton, and a Ph.D. at the University of Connecticut. Her groundbreaking Shiloh and Other Stories won the PEN/Hemingway

Award and was short-listed for the National Book Critics Circle Award, the National Book Award, and the PEN/Faulkner Award. She has won two Southern Book awards and numerous other prizes, including the O. Henry and the Pushcart. She is former writer-in-residence at the University of Kentucky and lives in Kentucky. Kentucky Humanities’ first edition of Kentucky Reads, in 2018, featured Kentucky native Robert Penn Warren’s Pulitzer Prizewinning novel: All the King’s Men to guide statewide conversations on contemporary populism, political discourse, and their relationship to journalism. In 2020, Wendell Berry’s Hannah Coulter was chosen, and in 2021 Crystal Wilkinson’s The Birds of Opulence was featured.

10 YEARS AGO IN ACE Road Report BY BOBBIE ANN MASON

few years ago, I gave a reading at a library in Kentucky, and in the book-signing line I met a nineyear-old girl with her mother, who told me that the child, Samantha or perhaps Emily, had done a special school project on me. The students each chose a Kentucky author and played the role of that author for a day. Samantha dressed up as me in some kind of frontier shirt and a long skirt (that’s me?), and gave a presentation. The mother handed me a sheet of paper Samantha had written in her role as me. It read, “Hello. My name is Bobbie Ann

Mason. I am a Kentucky author. I was born in1940. AND YET I am still alive….” Good news, readers! I am still alive to this day. Also, I can drive yet. The days of the book tour are over, but the selfcatered tour thrives, and there is no shortage of public libraries eager to entertain a visiting writer and even sell their books. Often this is where you find the most dedicated readers. Recently I was invited to the public library in the small town of Greensburg, in south-central Kentucky, about eighty-five miles south of Louisville. I had marked two p.m. on my calendar, on a Saturday afternoon. Before I left, I had a notion to double-check what time zone Greensburg occupied. I lived by Eastern time, but Greensburg, as I had suspected, is

From the Ace Archives: 2012 just across the boundary into Central time. Therefore, two meant three o’clock. I set off at 12:30 for a leisurely drive, allowing myself extra time for the seventy miles or so, because the route was on state highways, not four-lanes. I had brought some food with me, since I don’t like to stop at fast-food joints. I didn’t expect to find a roadside picnic table, so half-way there I pulled into a vast Wal-Mart parking lot and ate my meager snacks while checking my e-mail. Alas, I forgot the chocolate! I set off again, admiring the hyper-green countryside. There had been some recent rain after the punishing drought, and the fields were lush. In the distance I could see hills, and the land started a rolling and dipping effect, but the road was good. When I stopped at a McDonald’s in Campbellsville to indulge in their restroom, I found some urgent messages on my phone, “Ms. Mason, are you lost? We were expecting you at one o’clock! Several people are waiting for you!” Heaven and earth! I was a victim of the time-zone border wars! I had thought the two on my calendar meant two their time, not my time.

Thirty-three kind people had waited for me, and they had bought thirty-five books, brought in from a Barnes and Noble thirty-five miles away. —Bobbie Ann Mason I checked my makeup, struggled into my silk shirt, wiggled out of my Teva sandals and into some uptown sandals, and hurried on the last ten miles. They were waiting for me! The spacious open center of the library had been set up with chairs. It was a comfortable, pleasant place to read a chapter from my novel, and I launched right in. The beaming faces made me feel welcome. While they were waiting, the library had served everyone lunch, a substantial spread of fancy finger foods that I could have enjoyed too if I had not loitered with my repast in the WalMart parking lot. The friendly audience had plenty of questions for me, and a few shared their

own stories of World War II, the subject of my novel. I had brought my props–a B-17 model, some photographs. It was a war I had tried to imagine, but some of the older patrons there had clear memories of that awful time. Inside the library was a large display of photographs of local veterans, a project done for Veterans Day last year. Afterwards, I signed books and chatted. I signed a book for a woman named Maxideen, who had lived in France, where my novel takes place. Then a man named Larry Coomer showed me a folder of photos. He said he had driven the sound and cinematography truck for the filming of my novel about the Vietnam war, “In Country,” in the summer of 1988. He was very proud of doing that job. He showed me a glossy photo of the crew, about fifty people with director Norman Jewison in the center and young actress Emily Lloyd, a teenager then, smiling radiantly. Everyone had loved Emily. I recognized a few faces. I didn’t see Bruce Willis, but then he had avoided everyone and hid in his trailer. Mr. Coomer asked me to sign the picture. I had had little to do with the movie, but the photo made me nostalgic, especially about Emily. Emily, the funny, lovable lead in the movie —my Sam—is now 42. Where is she now? Then Mr. Coomer asked me to sign the script. It was written by Frank Pierson, the renowned screenwriter who had died just the week before at age 87. He was a trim, elegant 63 back in 1988. And yet I am still alive. I hated to leave Greensburg, a very pretty little town all spiffed up with tourism grant money, and I vowed to return with a more careful knowledge of time zones. Greensburg is a fairly remote small town, yet enthusiastic in its love of books. Thirty-three kind people had waited for me, and they had bought thirty-five books, brought in from a Barnes and Noble thirtyfive miles away. And I am not at all surprised. The annual Kentucky Book Fair, a huge event in the state capital attended by thousands, has been raising money for the state’s libraries for thirty years. Besides, Kentucky boasts an enormous population of homegrown writers–who grew up nourished by libraries. Libraries hold our histories, our memories, our stories. Now and then a writer who is still alive may show up as proof of something still going on in the realm of books.

Parker with parents, Rick and Whitney

All in the Family The Pannells keep it social BY KEVIN NANCE

f you want to be a star on TikTok — the short-form video app that’s taken the world by storm since it became popular in 2018 — there’s some insider information you need to make your reels go viral. That’s where 18-yearold Nicholasville native Parker Pannell and his mom, Lexington realtor, Whitney Pannell, come in. Parker, a budding TV sitcom actor with a whopping 2.6 million followers on the platform, and Whitney, who’s none too shabby with 83,000 followers, will be sharing their expertise in a talk for the Professional Women’s Forum, “What Makes TikTok Tick?,” on January 5 at Copper Roux. Parker, known on the platform as a freshfaced, outgoing, outdoorsy kid with a signature haircut that juts out from his forehead like a visor, will offer tips on content creation. His mom — who often plays an upbeat, hammy version of herself in many of his videos along with her husband, Rick, and their daughter,

10 | January 2022 | acemagazinelex.com

Lucy Boone — will focus on how the business community can use TikTok to increase their potential client bases. Some of the most important TikTok tips will come from Parker, who now lives in Los Angeles and is a recurring guest star on Warped, a new live-action comedy series premiering January 20 on Nickelodeon. (Parker plays Carl, “a super loud-mouth, abrasive jerk,” he says in a recent interview at his parents’ home. “He’s the character you love to hate.”)

arker has been learning the ropes on TikTok since his debut on the platform in October of 2018. He quickly built a huge audience with his entertaining skits showing him dancing, goofing around with his family and friends (including a girl named Page who posed as a girlfriend although they weren’t actually dating), and performing semi-athletic stunts like diving into a lake. He now earns a substantial income — he recently bought his first truck, paying for it

“if you want to just do real estate TikToks or attorney TikToks, it’s probably going to be boring.” —Whitney Pannell

himself — through live-streamed “gifting battles” with other TikTokers and as an influencer, with sponsorship deals with companies including A&W Root Beer, the Cash App, and the clothing line Psycho Bunny. The keys to success on TikTok, he says, are to keep things fun, to develop a niche and to follow the platform’s trends, usually involving a few select pranks or comic situations. “When I was slowly growing and trying to rise to the top, I would watch the trends and take notes on what other people were doing — I would take some of their ideas and put my own little twist on it,” he says. “Recently I’ve been trying to make more original content, and I’ve noticed that those videos don’t perform as well. Especially on TikTok, you have to really focus on the trends. If you don’t, then you’ll notice that your views will start to drop.”

“Recently I’ve been trying to make more original content, and I’ve noticed that those videos don’t perform as well…You have to really focus on the trends. If you don’t, then you’ll notice that your views will start to drop.” —Parker Pannell

If that sounds like lemmings jumping off a cliff — or maybe, as his mom suggests, like penguins leaping into the sea — so be it. “I think I would consider myself a lemming, or a penguin, or whatever,” Parker says with a smile. “Unless it’s really, really unique, your content is not going to perform that well if it’s out of the ordinary.” Staying in your lane, niche-wise, is also important. “I’ve seen people creating National Geographic kind of content where they’ll go out into the desert or the rainforest and take pictures of really rare animals that you don’t see on a daily basis,” he says. “I tried to create a video like that one time. I went to Costa Rica and I saw a sloth. It was beautiful. And I had a really, really good video of it, and I focused in, super high quality. But it didn’t perform as well, just because that’s not my niche.” But aren’t sloths kind of, you know, quiet and sort of boring — not really TikTok material? “People do love sloths,” Parker says. But they don’t move around much. That’s why we say lazy people are slothful.

“Still, they’re pretty cute animals,” he insists. “But the point is, once you create a niche, you have to stay within that niche. You’re kind of stuck with it, actually, for a long time. That’s what your viewers are expecting from your channel, so you have to keep producing that kind of content.”

ik Tok crossed the one billion monthly user mark in September of 2021. According to the New York Times, “TikTok also told one agency that 48 percent of millennial mothers were on the platform, and that women ages 25 to 34 spent an average of 60 minutes on the TikTok app a day.” So how does the fun, comedy-centered content on TikTok lend itself to the goals of business? Most of Whitney’s own wacky videos on the platform are much like her son’s — only a few deal directly with real estate — but in their upcoming talk, she’ll discuss how TikTok can be an important business development tool.

“The idea is to become more noticeable in your profession,” she says. “But if you want to just do real estate TikToks or attorney TikToks, it’s probably going to be boring. So I’ll talk about how you can make it creative, how to engage with people. Every once in a while, I’ll do something on real estate, but really not a lot. Because if all I did was real estate on TikTok, I don’t think I’d do very well.” How does that translate into a business advantage? “It’s helpful to my business because so many people will call me and say, ‘Oh my gosh — I follow you on TikTok! I know you’re a realtor — we’re thinking about selling our house.’” Warped, a new live-action comedy series, premieres January 20 on Nickelodeon.

About ‘Warped’ on Nickelodeon Warped! follows Milo, the beloved head geek and manager at a popular comic book store whose microcosm is disrupted when his boss hires the loud and excitable, Ruby. Despite their differences, the two form an unlikely alliance when they team up to create the next great graphic novel with friends.

RETIRING

Lexington celebrated Dr. Kraig Humbaugh Day when Lexington Mayor Linda Gorton and the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Council honored Dr. Kraig Humbaugh, who is retiring as Lexington’s commissioner of health after more than five years leading the LexingtonFayette County Health Department. “Dr. Humbaugh led the department to re-accreditation by the Public Health Accreditation Board, expanded the department’s harm reduction services and oversaw daily efforts to further the health

department’s mission of helping Lexington be well,” said Mayor Gorton (pictured without her mask because she had just finished addressing the council). “Lexington will forever be grateful for Dr. Humbaugh’s life-saving leadership throughout the pandemic.”

NEW IN TOWN

Dr. Joel McCullough, who previously served eight years as Public Health Director and Health Officer for the Spokane (Washington) Regional Health District, will serve as Lexington’s new Commissioner of Health, beginning in early 2022. “I look forward to being part of the community of Lexington and its world-class health department,” Dr. McCullough said. “I am honored the Board of Health put its faith in me to continue the mission of helping Lexington be well.” McCullough replaces Dr. Kraig Humbaugh, who has served as commissioner of health since June 2016. He has extensive history in public health, including time as a medical epidemiologist for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and as medical director of environmental health for the Chicago Department of Public Health.

Risky (Citrus) Business BY CHEF TOM YATES

ow that the holiday food frenzy has wound down, it might be a good idea to (at least) think about lightening things up a bit. Nothing fits that bill more than a perky dose of bright fresh citrus. During the grey drab winter months, varieties of citrus offer bursts of sunshine. ‘Tis the season for everyday citrus to step into the light. Sweetened up a bit, or a lot, their bright acidic undertones still poke through the fray and take center stage. I held to that notion with a riff on tarte tatin. Oh sure, while an orange tarte tatin teeters on the edge of sweet, it still brings a bright acidity to the party for an interesting take on the traditional. Typically filled with apples, pears, or other kinds of stone fruit, they can really be filled with just about anything. That said, they can also be very tricky. Anything, and I mean anything, that has to be assembled, cooked, and inverted is risky business. There’s always that moment of truth that comes with the big reveal. The big flip and turnout. Will it slip right out? Will it Stick? Will it half stick, half slip? Will it be burned? Will it be cooked? Ultimately, will it fail? More times than not, tarte tatins behave beautifully. Go for it. No risk, no reward. Either it’ll flip out beautifully or it’ll flop out and make a great topping for ice cream Sundays. Either way, it’s a total win. Go big and let the tarte tatin fall where it may.

Orange Tarte Tatin Tart tatins are simple little things. That said, their simplicity belies their wow factor. After melting 2/3 cups of light brown sugar and 6 tablespoons salted butter in a cast iron skillet, I overlapped thinly sliced oranges concentrically around the skillet until they covered the bottom before returning the skillet to the flame. When the sugar started bubbling under and around the oranges, I pulled the skillet from the heat and let it cool for about 5 minutes before covering the oranges with a sheet of thawed puff pastry and tightly tucking the overhanging pastry around the edges of the oranges, allowing the pastry to come in contact with the bottom of the skillet. To give it a little extra richness and crunch, I buttered the puff pastry with salted butter, letting the extra butter drip down the edges and pool around the pastry before sliding the tarte tatin into a preheated 400 degree oven. At the 40 minute mark, the pastry was beautifully browned and crisp, so I pulled it from the oven to bubble down and cool for just a bit, about 5 minutes. Being mindful to catch it before the sugared oranges hardened and set up completely, I carefully inverted the tarte tatin onto a plate before drizzling the aromatic sticky syrup over the top to literally seal the deal. It slipped right out. No drama. No half in, half out. Glistening from the caramelized syrup, the glazed oranges seemed to melt into the shatteringly crisp pastry. Sticky and soft, the sweetened pulp countered the flaky crunch of the crust and the firm bite of the candied peels in a way that was reminiscent of freshly-made fancy orange marmalade slathered over simple buttered toast. No risk, no reward.

ACE EATS OUT A New Year always brings with it new dining options for Lexington, and 2022 is no exception. Sometimes, everything old is new again.

BIRTHS

There’s a new Cuban entry in Lexington: Hola Havana has opened off Richmond Road.

Sawyer’s Downtown Bar and Grill will not be re-opening in its former location — BUT, it will re-open in 2022 in a new spot, just a few blocks from the old location. Sawyer’s new home will be at 140 West Main Street at City Center. You can follow construction progress pics on facebook. Sam’s Hot Dog Stand / East Lexington has opened on Winchester Road.

Remembering Captain Kentucky, author Ed McClanahan BY RHONDA REEVES

Where the Story Takes You

and Connecticut, we steadfastly maintained our four-cornered friendship—an ‘elastic trapezoid,’ Wendell cleverly labeled it — no matter where, individually, we happened to find ourselves. Eventually, of course, we all ‘found ourselves’ — figuratively as well as literally — right back in Kentucky where we started; the trapezoid had finally stabilized, and squared its corners.” His detours out west included time spent as part of Ken Kesey’s band of Merry Pranksters, where he was dubbed Captain Kentucky. He’s often credited with inviting Tom Wolfe to visit the gang in California, a visit which ultimately resulted in 1968’s seminal counter-culture chronicle, The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. Many years later, McClanahan wrote “Furthurmore, An Afterword,” an account of the Merry Pranksters’ reunion, among other things.

ROB BREZSNY’S FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Historians disagree about the legacy of Jimmie Carter, who was President of the United States from 1977 to 1981. Was he effective or not? Opinions differ. But there’s no ambiguity about a project he pursued after his presidency. He led a global effort to eliminate a pernicious disease caused by the guinea worm parasite. When Carter began his work, 3.5 million people per year suffered from the parasite’s debilitating effects. Today, there are close to zero victims. Will 2022 bring an equivalent boon to your life, Aries? The banishment of an old bugaboo? A monumental healing? I suspect so. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In 2022, I hope you will express more praise than ever before. I hope you’ll be a beacon of support and inspiration for the people you care for. The astrological omens suggest this could be a record-breaking year for the blessings you bestow. Don’t underestimate your power to heal and instigate beneficial transformations. Yes, of course, it’s a kind and generous strategy for you to carry out. But it will also lead to unforeseen rewards that will support and inspire and heal you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If you search Google, you’ll be told that the longest biography ever written is the 24-volume set about British political leader Winston Churchill. But my research shows there’s an even more extensive biography: about Japan’s Emperor Hirohito, who lived from 1901 to 1989. His story consists of 61 volumes. In the spirit of these expansive tales, and in accordance with 2022’s astrological aspects, I encourage you to create an abundance of noteworthy events that will deserve inclusion in your biography. Make this the year that warrants the longest and most interesting chapter in that masterpiece.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): One of the 20th century’s most famous works of art was Fountain. It was scandalous when it appeared in 1917, since it consisted entirely of a white porcelain urinal. Marcel Duchamp, the artist who presented it, was a critic of the art market and loved mocking conventional thought. Years later, however, evidence emerged suggesting that Fountain may not have been Duchamp’s idea that in fact he “borrowed” it from Cancerian artist and poet Baroness Elsa von Freytag-Loringhoven. There’s still disagreement among art scholars about what the facts are. But if definitive proof ever arrives that von Freytag-Loringhoven was the originator, it will be in 2022. This will be the year many Cancerians finally get the credit they deserve.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Author Carson McCullers wrote the novel The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter. Early in the story, the character named Mick Kelly has a crisis of yearning. McCullers describes it: “The feeling was a whole lot worse than being hungry for any dinner, yet it was like that. I want! want! want was all that she could think about but just what this real want was she did not know.” If you have ever had experiences resembling Mick’s, Leo, 2022 will be your year to fix that glitch in your passion. You will receive substantial assistance from life whenever you work on the intention to clarify and define the specific longings that are most essential to you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): After careful research, I have concluded that one of your important missions in 2022 will be to embody a perspective articulated by poet Rand Howells: “If I could have but one wish granted, it would be to live in a universe like this one at a time like the present with friends like the ones I have now and be myself.” In other words, Virgo, I’m encouraging you to do whatever’s necessary to love your life exactly as it is without comparing it unfavorably to anyone else’s life or to some imaginary life you don’t actually have. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Two mating rabbits could theoretically engender 11 million relatives within a year’s time. Although I suspect that in 2022 you will be as metaphorically fertile as those two hypothetical rabbits, I’m hoping you’ll aim more for quality than quantity. To get started, identify two projects you could pursue in the coming months that will elicit your most liberated creativity. Write a vow in which you state your intention to be intensely focused as you express your fecundity.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A blogger named Soracities writes, “The more I read, the more I feel that a good mark of an intelligent book is simply that the author is having fun with it.” Sagittarian author George Saunders adds that at its best, “Literature is a form of fondness-forlife. It is love for life taking a verbal form.” I will expand these analyses to evaluate everything that humans make and do. In my opinion, the supreme sign of intelligence and value is whether the creators had fun and felt love in doing it. My proposal to you, Sagittarius, is to evaluate your experiences in that spirit. If you are doing things with meager amounts of fun and love, what can you do in 2022 to raise the fun and love quotient?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Microbiologist Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin in 1928. It was later described as “the single greatest victory ever achieved over disease” an antidote to dangerous infections caused by bacteria. But there’s more to the story. Fleming’s strain of penicillin could only be produced in tiny amounts not nearly enough to become a widespread medicine. It wasn’t until 1943 that a different strain of penicillin was found one that could be mass-produced. The genius who made this possible was Mary Hunt, a humble researcher without a college degree. By 1944, the new drug was saving thousands of lives. I mention Hunt because she’s a good role model for you in 2022. I believe you’ll have chances to improve on the work of others, generating excellent results. You may also improve on work you’ve done in the past. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Catherine Pugh wrote a series of children’s books collectively known as Healthy Holly. Later, when she became mayor of the city of Baltimore, she carried out a scheme to sell 100,000 copies to hospitals and schools that did business with the city. Uh-oh. Corruption! She was forced to resign from her office and was arrested. I’d love for you to be aggressive and imaginative in promoting yourself in 2022, but only if you can find ethical ways to do so. I’d love for you to make money from doing what you do best, but always with high integrity and impeccability.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Piscean Vaslav Nijinsky is regarded by many as the 20th century’s most brilliant dancer. He had a robust relationship with beauty, and I want you to know about it. Hopefully, this will inspire you to enjoy prolonged periods of Beauty Worship in 2022. To do so will be good for your health. Memorize this passage from Nijinsky: “Beauty is God. God is beauty with feeling. Beauty is in feeling. I love beauty because I feel it and therefore understand it. I flaunt my beauty. I feel love for beauty.”
