editor’s notes

Stay Active, Get Fit, Have Fun

I like to think that I am fit. Then the weather turns or stays cold for a long time, I get lazy and off track to such a point that getting back on track becomes harder in direct proportion to the number of days and weeks (or months) since my last visit to the gym, yoga studio or wherever. It’s one thing to be enthusiastic about maintaining a life-work balance and another to give yourself the chance to achieve it. When we neglect our health (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual), it naturally follows that life is out of balance. It is one thing to hit the treadmill or stairclimber, but it’s also important to challenge one’s self, to achieve enlightenment in some small way. That’s not say that we need to move away to Bhutan and consider for a lifetime the sound

of one hand clapping. Enlightenment in some ways means that we’ve managed to weed out the clutter, to sharpen our focus as to what’s important in life. Health is life and it therefore has many levels; staying healthy is as much about setting goals or achieving quantifiable results as finding one’s centre, fanning the flames of that burning ember that lies within us all. Being active is one thing; doing so in Saskatoon during the winter is another. On the prairies, the few warm spells in between months of cold weather is called the summer. It’s natural to want to spend more time indoors and the city has legions of activities and places for you to rekindle that fire. This month we list a few such ideas to start your New Year off on a healthy note. Whether you want to huck around kettle bells or improve your pelvic floor through Pilates, tackle a really imposing wall, cook a meal by Michael Smith, improve your motor skills and memory through music or become more entwined with the artistic fabric of the community by attending a live performance of any kind, you get more out of life. It’s all about having balance— just ask any successful actor, fitness instructor, musician, skater, yogi or dancer. Find the right fit for you this year. Make it your New Year’s resolution to get back to being you— body, mind, heart and soul. All the best to you and yours in 2014!

With a Ring of the Bell... Text by Paul Miazga Photos by Mark Tiu

Elbow-room only is to be expected at Bell ‘n Whistle Bar and Bistro, a new gastro-pub in the old Royal Bank Building downtown that hosted Freeflow Thursdays by Mane Productions on Nov. 21. Engaging personalities from business, academia, the city’s music and arts scene, plus service workers from various fields converged

for another free evening of conversation, social drinks and a range of complimentary appetizers from this month’s host the Bell ‘n Whistle. Among the night’s noteworthy guests was former local gridiron star Rob Symchuk, a national champion with both the Saskatoon Hilltops (1985) and the U of S Huskies (1990). In a space that pays respect to history in its detailing (the erstwhile bank vault doors remain),

the Bell also reflects the present in its food, and that night guests tucked into Mushroom and Goat Cheese Quesos, Tequila Shrimp, Tres Amigos Sliders and more. One free sample of Jim Beam Devil’s Cut whiskey was provided to each guest, adding to the atmosphere of fun and celebration!

Learn to Play the [Winter] Blues Away! Text by Rebecca Windjack (SaskMusic) Holiday hangover anyone?! To me the best remedy for an unproductive, post-holiday funk is to dive into something new and slightly challenging! While some go with a new fitness routine or organizing a neglected closet, I think of dusting off my friend’s old acoustic guitar and giving it a purpose other than as décor. As a young adult who recently started taking real guitar lessons, let me confirm that there’s no time quite like the New Year to do something so beneficial as learning to play music. In fact, Richard McFarlane, the owner of Mosaic Music (Mosaicmusic.ca) in Prince Albert, suggests that it is often easier to study music as an adult as opposed to when you’re young: adults grasp concepts more quickly (such as sight reading skills); hand strength, fine motor skills and attention span all increase quickly; and math skills improve. “For those who have never played before, learning a new instrument will challenge them in new ways, educate them about music and, if they get good enough, lead them to meet and communicate with new people,” McFarlane says. “Learning something new is always a great New Year's resolution!” Michael Lander, an instructor at Saskatoon’s 12 String Studios (12stringstudios.com), echoes these remarks. Lander, who has been playing guitar for over 25 years, has taught students of all ages and has seen the benefits of music education first hand. “There are so many benefits to studying music! It improves coordination and multi-tasking, you process information faster, (it teaches you about) self-discipline, achieving goals, sparking your creative side and much more,” Lander says. If that doesn’t strike a motivational chord in you, learning an instrument can remedy the effects of seasonal depression. “As an adult, learning an instrument can be an escape from the stress of life,” says McFarlane. Learning something new is “a great activity during our long winters,” he adds. That might be especially good for folks seeking a little push to get through this frigid prairie season. For more information on these and other music teachers across Saskatchewan, contact SaskMusic. SaskMusic (www.saskmusic.org) represents, promotes and develops the commercial music industry of the province with programming that includes career advice, artist listings, workshops, marketing, networking opportunities and more. Our artists and music professionals hail from across the province and work in pretty much every genre imaginable.

On the prairies there’s a lot to keep a person indoors during cold weather, but the pay-offs for heading outside (even if only between the car and another building) are amazing—increased flexibility, reduced lower back pain and freedom from chronic ailments. Disciplines such as dance, yoga and Pilates (which is used by U of S Huskie athletes) improve muscle tone, balance musculature, support correct posture and teach you to move with ease and grace. Other types of fitness get you feeling motivated to do more and go further. It’s one thing to be enthusiastic about maintaining a life-work balance and another to give yourself the chance to achieve it. Make the most of your New Year’s resolution and get into something that really grabs you.

THE ART IN FASHION:

Reflections on 2013: A prairie designer speaks volumes

The New Year has arrived! One of the greatest things about January is that thoughts turn to a clean slate, a chance to leave the past behind and march forward.

Self-expression is the key when Laurie deals with multiple mediums. As a Saskatoon-based artist and designer, she has definitely learned to work with anything and everything at hand.

The buzz around Saskatoon in 2013 has people keenly watching future trends and making big lifestyle changes. One trending designer to watch is locally based Laurie Brown.

Laurie is a must-watch designer with ready-towear collections that complement the region’s rapidly changing seasons. An Honours graduate of Seneca College in Toronto and a Student of the Year recipient there, Laurie is moving on confidently and expanding her presence on the Prairies, calling her home a “fashion incubator with eclectic taste.”

Art and fashion in her view reflect the past and present through the same common denominators: texture, patterns, colour and form. A look at the history and evolution of fashion through her eyes proves that these fundamentals remain the same. They are the basis of every creation, and where individuality is refined, personal self-expression is born.

Reflecting on 2013, Laurie’s collections pushed the edge of wearable designs towards the avant garde. She recalls several key events that shaped her year in this exclusive interview with SFDF.

(Saskatchewan Fashion Week) “The light painting project ended off my year on a high note. Again, another extremely talented team was formed and everyone excelled. It was another long process of working with odd textiles and materials for wardrobe, test shoots, and a twelve-hour day in the studio, but it was worth every second.”

“Saskatchewan Fashion Week was the first fashion week where my collection hit the runway. There I showcased my ink dresses that started off as maxi length white gowns: as the model walked, coloured ink saturated the cotton and dyed the gown right before your eyes. I headlined Saturday night with those pieces and with my ready to wear line.” For fashions by Laurie Brown or to see the wearable art sculpture on display, please visit White Dhalia (142 2nd Ave. North, Saskatoon). www.laurie-brown.com

Help for Saving the Skin this Winter

Text by Jennilee Cardinal-Schultz Photo by Carlene Haday Photography Hair by Jamie Sawyer (R3 Salon) Makeup by Vamp Make-up Model: Roxy

As gorgeous as Saskatchewan’s winters can be, the dry weather and harsh, cold winds leave the skin feeling anything but beautiful. Many notice that their skin becomes dull, rough and flaky as the season progresses. While we can’t stop winter, there are ways to protect our skin from the elements. Some of Saskatoon’s finest estheticians elaborate on what their recommendations to help keep skin healthy and glowing during the winter months.

“It’s important to keep your skin hydrated, not just from the outside but from within as well. Make sure that you drink plenty of water throughout Saskatchewan’s dry winter months. Also, a good skincare regime is important. I like products by Dermalogica, which has options for all skin types.” – Kinder Datewas, Chatters Salon

“Think layers for that dry winter skin. It’s not all about using a heavier cream (which can cause breakouts) to compensate for the moisture loss. Start with a gentle cleanser and exfoliator with room temperature water to remove those dry skin cells from the surface and to aid in better absorption of hydrating products such as Dermalogica’s Multi-Active Toner, a light facial spritz that refreshes, reduces tightness and hydrates while smoothing and conditioning the skin. “Next, apply Dermalogica’s Skin Hydrating Booster, a super-saturated hyaluronic acid fluid concentrate that intensely moisturizes thirsty skin to restore suppleness, improve elasticity, minimize fine lines and restore skin’s protective barrier function that becomes weakened due to dehydration. Lastly, always use a daily SPF moisturizer suited for your skin type to seal and protect.” – Zoie Saher, R3 Salon

“Exfoliate at least once a week to break through the dead, dry skin cells that are inhibiting proper product absorption. Following exfoliation you must moisturize using a rich, nourishing skin cream. Two natural, chemical-free products I recommend for these steps are Ecco Bella LeaveOn Exfoliant and Blemish Remedy (from Mom’s Nutrition Centre). This product is best used at night before bed, applied on clean, moist skin. It exfoliates at a cellular level, breaking down any unwanted skin cells. In the morning, use a soft, warm and damp cotton cloth to gently polish the skin. Egyptian Magic (from Goldie’s General Store above The Hollows) is an all-purpose skin cream with a range of different uses and benefits. It is made of olive oil, beeswax, honey, bee pollen, royal jelly and propolis extract. It serves as a divinely rich and nurturing face cream. It also doubles as an eye and neck cream, supporting those delicate tissues that are susceptible to premature aging.” – Ashley Shmon, holistic esthetician

“An excellent way to combat dry winter skin is by using gentle enzymes amped with antioxidants to exfoliate and refresh it. We offer a signature facials as well as a take-home product called Image Vital C Enzyme Masque to pamper skin with these enzymes (derived from a variety of fruit extracts) that go after dead skin cells and break them down but leaving healthy cells alone. It increases cellular turnover, revealing smoother, healthier, glowing skin.”

– Brandie Georget, Yu Spa Esthetics

“Exfoliation is key to vibrant skin. It is essential for minimizing fine lines, removing dead and dry skin cells, unplugging pores, and keeping the skin clear and smooth. It prepares the skin for deeper hydration from your moisturizer. The Strawberry Rhubarb Dermafoliant from Eminence Organic Skin Care is gentle enough to use every day and leaves the skin soft and radiant. Improve your complexion with this daily-use rice based exfoliant.” – Amanda, Visions Salon & Spa

The Third Part of Quality Coffee: Careful processing, the side rarely seen

The explosion of interest in quality wine and craft beer in recent years comes in part from the educational experience of consumers being able to tour vineyards or local microbreweries. In the coffee world, the same behind-the-scenes experience is much rarer for coffee lovers and even coffee professionals. Where most of “the craft” of beer and wine happens in the brewery or cellar, the work done at the roastery can only be as good as the work done on the coffee farm. (Part 3 of 3) Rule #3: Processing All varietals are an expression of a farm’s unique terroir, but varietals are influenced by harvest and processing too. A good farm only picks coffee cherries at peak ripeness to maximize both sweetness and the full development of unique flavours. Processing removes the bean from the hard-

shelled cherry, and in the Americas washed/ wet processing dominates. Cherries are pushed through a grinding mill with water to partially remove the crimson flesh and they are then soaked for up to three days before separating. A clean, crisp taste is the hallmark of washed processing. In dry/natural processing, popular in Ethiopia

Text by Jimmy Oneschuk Micromilling in Michicoy, Guatemala. (Photo courtesy of Tom Owen) and Yemen, the whole cherry is laid out in the sun to dry, thus imparting sweetness and more flavour of the flesh into the seed. Natural processing redefines what coffee can taste like: top lots are clean, juicy, sweet, devoid of bitterness and often show blueberry, plum or strawberry-like notes, amid traditional “coffee taste” notes of brown sugar, cocoa and woodsiness. Mixed processing (semi-pulped, wet-hulled or miel) is a variation of washed processing, leaving more flesh intact, imparting some of the flavour of naturals, but controlling the development of fruit notes. In the past, farmers may have been forced to sell quality coffee to a mill without receiving a premium for their efforts. This is changing today in two ways. First, many mills now sort and separate lots, and pay premiums to farmers after roasting and grading on a scale of 100. Akin to the wine scoring system, coffee above 85/100 garners a progressively higher price with scores above 90 tripling or quadrupling the Fair-Trade price for the farmer. Second, new micro-milling equipment is allowing farmers to process their own coffee and to sell directly to roasters. The wave of microprocessing is empowering farmers to craft exceptional coffee and to be rewarded properly for their work. In this way, the farmers produce their own brand or house (borrowing from the wine model again), and it’s driving the coffee world in a new direction. All these factors, though rarely seen by the public, come into play in every cup of coffee. For some, coffee remains a caffeine jolt but increasingly, people are thinking about what they are tasting and hopefully becoming aware of how terroir, varietals and processing can all add up to exceptional coffee.
