HOME-STYLE BAKED CHICKEN
Serves 4 to 6
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
11⁄2 teaspoons Poultry Seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1⁄2 teaspoon paprika
4 to 5 pounds skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs and drumsticks
Preheat the oven and a 9-by-13inch metal roasting pan to 375ºF. Place the olive oil and butter in the pan and place the pan in the oven on the lower rack.
In a small bowl, combine the poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Set aside.
Place the flour in a resealable bag. Place a few pieces of the chicken in the flour at a time, seal, and shake to coat. Remove and vigorously shake off any excess flour. Place the flour-dusted chicken on a clean platter. Repeat with the remaining chicken pieces. Remove the roasting pan from the oven and immediately arrange the chicken skin-side up in a single layer over the bottom of the pan and then sprinkle with some of the poultry seasoning blend and paprika. It should sizzle.
Place the hot pan back on the lower rack of the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Remove, baste by spooning the juices that have collected in the pan over each piece, and then sprinkle the chicken with the remaining poultry seasoning blend.
Return the pan to the oven and bake for 20 minutes more. Remove and baste one last time before moving the chicken to the middle rack and baking for 10 to 15 minutes more to further crisp the chicken skin.
Let rest for 5 to 8 minutes before serving.
Enjoy dining out with kids
Pack snacks: Although the goal may be to eat out, kids may not be as patient as adults when waiting for their meals to be delivered. Ask servers to bring out the kids’ meals when appetizers are served or think ahead and have some light snacks, such as crackers or dry cereal, available to tame kids’ hunger pangs.

A little shout out to the town of Caledonia for their beautiful light poles with giant snowflakes at the top; they are beautiful and make me smile every time I drive through! Along with that; the house in Caledonia with the giant tree lit up in the back yard is stunning. A great way to feel the spirit!
Walmart - Batavia, thank you for returning my wallet
Wake up, children of today. It's a really depressing time of year for us senior citizens. We are getting older. Sicknesses come, and so does bad weather. Do you care? You used to come visit on a weekly basis or call twice a week. Why don't you come see us now? You say "it's too far to drive, it's over an hour and a half away,” but you can travel to the mountains or go on a holiday cruise. As seniors, we see this as you don't care any more about Mom and Dad. Some day, you will care, but will that be too late? What's wrong with the world today? Remember, we are your family. Wake up - God Bless You - Senior Citizens, Your Parents
Driving Is Not A Game
On Friday, December 13th, my wallet was lost at Walmart in Batavia, or I possibly left it at the cashier. When I got home, I realized it was not in my purse and panicked. My husband and I drove back to the store, and someone had turned it into the customer service counter. I asked if they knew who turned it in, but they did not know. I want whoever did this to know, I am sincerely grateful. I have had a very tough year. You have no idea how grateful I am to whoever did this and I wish I could thank you personally.
Unfortunately, today it seems many drivers look at driving as a game - swerving, jumping lights, going through stop signs - with no regard to the ramifications if someone is in their way. Vehicles are not toys. Recently I was rear-ended at a busy intersection going into work. I was told that the foot slipped off the brake. Luckily, I wasn't physically hurt. My family has had some very challenging times the past few months and things were finally getting better. The car I was driving is brand new - Less than 2 months before, our previous car had been totaled by a driver who left the scene. To be told by the driver that hit me the other morning that insurance is for when you make mistakes doesn't cut it. As my parents taught me, when you get into a car you are responsible for your life and other people's lives. Think about it.

A SAFE AND HAPPY HOLIDAY TO ALL, LARGE AND SMALL ECKANKAR
DEAR READERS: As we prepare for the holiday in this hectic season, it’s a wonderful opportunity to spend time with all of our pets and celebrate togetherness. But the holiday season can also present dangers to your pets, especially if you have a lot of guests over.
Here are some important safety tips:
• Don’t let dogs drink from the Christmas tree’s water pan; it may be contaminated with dirt and debris from the tree trunk or parts of decorations (like tinsel and fake snow) that can harm them.
• In fact, just keep pets away from the tree in general. Cats love to jump up and knock glass ornaments from the branches; dogs may chew on the pine needles or candy canes.
• Scented candles can irritate pets; lit candles on low tables can be knocked over. Keep them away from pets.
• Use sturdy, snap-top lids on garbage cans so pets don’t sneak in to purloin tasty scraps. Some of that food can be harmful to them, like onions, garlic or raisins.
• Put chocolate and sugar-free candies out of reach of pets; both present toxic dangers to them (cocoa and xylitol sweetener).
• During parties and dinners, place your pets in a safe room with water, food and toys. ey’ll be much happier without the noise and bustle, and you won’t have the stress of keeping an eye out for them.
Finally, once the hectic unwrapping of gi s and serving of food is over, make some space and time to relax with your pets. A er all, the holiday season is all about being with loved ones -- and our pets are part of the family group!
A very happy holidays to all my readers, far and wide. ank you for making this world a wonderful place for all our pets, great and small.
Send your tips, comments or questions to ask@pawscorner.com.
Wherever you travel this season, we hope it finds you surrounded by peace, happiness and loved ones!
We’re all geared up for a festive season, and we’re excited to be celebrating with our friends and customers. We hope your holiday is merry all the way!
SOUND CONTROL KEY TO A CALM, RELAXING HOME
Inside and out, life can be loud. Retreat from the hustle and bustle of the world by making your home, or specific rooms within it, a calm, relaxingsanctuary.
There’s a room in every house that could benefit from greater sound control, whether it’s a home theater, music room, studio, home office, children’s play room, bathroom, mechanical, or laundry room.Insulatingproperlywillallow you to really enjoy your home that much more and achieve a higher level of comfort.
Experts suggest selecting a dense insulation with a non-directional fiber structure to combat airborne noise such as music, speech and foot traffic. This insulation material creates an excellent sound barrier that effectively absorbs noise and reduces the transfer of sound waves from one room to another. Its resistance to fire is an added benefit that also adds passive fire protection to your home, a type of fire precaution that is part of the core of the building and will help controlfirebylimitingitsspread. Certain sound dampening measures, such as carpeting, might also help alleviate echo and reverberation, as will acoustic panels that prevent sound reflections throughout a room. With basic DIY skills, you can simply and affordably construct your own acoustic panels using a stone wool rigid board which is effective at reducing the intensity andpropagationofnoise.

SAFE WAYS TO DEAL WITH SINUS PRESSURE
Sinuses are bony, hollow, air-filled cavities inside the face and skull. They are located in the low-center of the forehead, behind the eyes and in bones behind the nose. Cedars-Sinai Medical Center says the sinuses lighten the skull and produce a mucus that moisturizes the inside of the nose. Unfortunately, when colds or the flu strike, sinuses may become one of the first spots affected by these illnesses.
When the sinuses are working properly, mucus will drain into the nasal passages or out the back of the throat. Most of this drainage goes unnoticed. However, the American Sinus Institute says that factors such as allergies, illness, weather changes, dehydration, and dry air can make thesinusmucusthickeranddrainagemoredifficult.Thisiswhenproblems like infection, stuffiness or throat irritation may occur.
In order to combat sinus congestion and drainage concerns, people may try certain strategies that include flushing the sinuses and thinning the mucus. It is imperative to use safe flushing methods to keep the sinuses healthy.
Netipotsareamongthemorepopularmethodstoflushingsinuses.These small teapot-like devices with elongated snouts have become a fixture in many medicine cabinets. Because they are drug-free alternatives, they can be handy for those worried about antihistamines making them drowsy or reacting with other drugs. Neti pots and other nasal irrigation systems use saline to moisten and clear out nasal passages to promote drainage of sinus cavities. However, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, using these devices improperly can increase one’s risk of infection. CBS News says that neti pots have even been linked to the deadly Naegleria fowleri, which is otherwise known as the “braineating” amoeba.
The key to preventing infection is to only use previously boiled, sterile or distilled water to irrigate. Tap water is not adequately filtered, says the FDA, and may contain low levels of organisms that can stay alive in nasal passages and potentially cause serious infections.
Those who are concerned about nasal irrigation safety may be wise to skip neti pots and use pre-packaged, sterile saline solutions that are bottled for the purpose of alleviating congestion. However, when prepared water is used in a clean neti pot or other device, these methods can be perfectly safe.
Sinuses can get clogged for many reasons. To free up breathing, people are urged to consult their physicians to learn more about how to safely irrigate their nasal passages.
TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
By Keith Roach, M.D.
Eighty-Year-Old
Man Considers Having a Child With His Partner
DEAR DR. ROACH: I am a reasonably healthy 80-year-old man who is fortunate enough to have a partner of child-bearing age. She would like to bear us a child, but I am concerned about any potential problems with my old genes and any birth defects that might be caused by them. Please help us decide. -- R.B.
ANSWER: This is a question I usually hear from my patients when they are in their 60s or 70s. Eighty is quite old to be considering fathering a child. The first issue is that men get less fertile as we age. Older men are less likely to get their partners pregnant, and this difference is apparent by the age of 35. There are not good data for potential fathers in their 80s.
If you and your partner do have a successful pregnancy, there is an increased risk of deleterious genetic conditions and birth defects that are more likely in children who have older fathers. Down syndrome, which is normally associated with an advanced maternal age, is also more common among the offspring of older fathers.
Some heart conditions are more common. Epilepsy and schizophrenia are more common as well, as are autism spectrum disorders. Some cancer rates are increased. Babies are more likely to have a low birth weight, be born premature, and require the neonatal ICU.
However, the magnitude of the effect is modest. On average, 1 in 50 pregnancies with a father under the age of 30 will have one of the common health conditions that are studied in couples. With children who have a father over 50, the rate is 1 in 38. Even though the odds are that you would have a healthy child, the likelihood of a significant health issue for a man over 80 will be substantially more concerning. There just aren’t data for men as old as you are that can give us a reliable estimate.
Another issue to consider is whether you will be around to see your child grow up and be there as a father. The average 80-year-old man has a life expectancy of just under eight years. If you are substantially healthier than average, or if your parents lived for a very long time, this number could be better. But the average 80-year-old (assuming your partner has the child while you are still 80) is not likely to see their child reach their 10th birthday. The early death of a father has a negative impact on the physical and mental health of a child.
I conclude that there are significant risks in bringing a child into the world at your age.
DR. ROACH WRITES: I got my first dose of Shingrix in 2022 and forgot to get the second. Do I need to get two more doses now or just one? -- L.B.S.
ANSWER: According to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, the vaccine series does not need to be restarted, and you can just take the second dose.
However, this type of delayed administration hasn’t been thoroughly tested. I’ve had patients come back several years after the first dose and elect to redo the whole series just to be sure.
Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu. © 2024 North America Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

Here’s A Tip
BYLINE: By JoAnn Derson
* If you have a stained porcelain sink, try using it to soak your stained garments. e presoak can do double duty on the stained sink and washable alike.
* To make your own breadcrumbs without a chopper or blender, place dry bread pieces in a plastic bag. Use a rolling pin to “roll” them to crumbs.
* “Laundry stain removers can be good to remove stains from concrete drives. For instance, my relatives’ car was leaking, and I was able to get the stains from my pavers using a spray and wash stain remover that I borrowed from the laundry room. It worked very well.” -- S.E. in Arkansas

Soundproof Your Home
What’s the first step in sound proofing your home? Finding which rooms have the least amount of sound resistance.
To do this, make sure everyone is out of the house, unplug all electronics and close all doors and windows. Take a quick walk through your house and pause for a few moments in each room to evaluate which ones are the noisiest. Now consider if you’re installing a media room or teenage recreational room where volumes will be blasting on TV’s and stereos. With this information, you should have a good idea of where you need to soundproof and create barriers against noise. Here are some tips to help you achieve the optimal result of peace and quiet:
• Plant trees and hedges along the exterior of your home, perhaps along a fence. Not only do trees and hedges help with the environment and provide a good amount of privacy, they also slow down the travel of noise from the neighborhood into your home.
• Insulate your walls and ceilings. Better insulation in your interiors and exteriors won’t just drive away excess noise, it will also reduce your heating and cooling bills during the hot and cold months.
• Seal up all cracks and holes around windows and doors, and add double glazed windows to your current glass panes.

HOW TO FIX THAT STICKING DOOR
Nearly everyone has experienced a sticking door that just will not close properly. This problem may become more noticeable when temperatures rise and humidity contributes to the swelling of wood doors and frames.
According to The Family Handyman, a home improvement resource, the standard remedy for alleviating a sticking door is to remove the door and pare down the edges that are rubbing so that the door will once again swing freely. While this can solve the problem, it can be a hassle, as it requires refinishing the pareddown edge and rehanging the door. Try these shortcuts first before creating more work than might be necessary.
• Identify the problem area and rub it with a dry bar of soap. This should reduce friction and allow the door to close more easily.
• Remove humidity with a dehumidifier or by running an air conditioning unit.
• Check for loose hinges or sagging around the hinge. Tighten the fasteners to sure up the door and create better alignment.
• Spray the hinges with lubricant if you suspect sticking is originating because of squeaky hinges.
• Look for obstructions at the bottom of the door. Is the door dragging on carpeting or being caught on something on the floor? It may be a matter of simply clearing away the obstruction.
DID YOU KNOW?
Hiring a landscape architect may be a smart move for homeowners who are planning major overhauls of their properties. “The Operational Outlook Handbook” defines a landscape architect as “a person who designs parks, outdoor spaces of campuses, recreational facilities, private homes, and other open areas.” Landscape architects typically must be licensed and many hold degrees in landscape architecture from accredited schools. Architects who work on residential spaces often work with homeowners to design gardens, plantings, stormwater management, and pools. Landscape architects design spaces to do more than merely look good. Designs also are about functionality and meeting the needs of the homeowner. Outdoor spaces are designed after considering what the homeowner wants to experience and how homeowners want to use a given space. Landscape architects often do not plant and maintain these spaces. Rather, architects collaborate with other landscaping professionals to produce the final results.
COLD WEATHER WILDLIFE IN HOMES BOOSTS DISEASE AND P
Many people may practice the “love thy neighbor” creed, but when it comes to four-legged wildlife such as raccoons, squirrels, and opossum that often seek refuge in yards and homes when outdoor temperatures dip and food sources become scarce, they are best kept at an arm’s length. As community development has thinned natural habitats and forced these critters into residential areas and lessened their fears of people, the National Pest Management Association (NPMA) has found that many areas of the country continue to report increased encounters with nuisance wildlife.
“While it can be a unique experience to spot wildlife in neighborhoods, these animals should be discouraged from taking up residence,” advises Missy Henriksen, vice president of public affairs for the NPMA. “Not only can they damage property, many are vectors of disease, most notably rabies.”
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 40,000 people are exposed to rabies each year, a viral infection passed through the bite and saliva of an infected mammal. Raccoons, foxes, skunks, coyotes and bats are the most commonly reported animals infected with rabies. Because

STICKY GRAPE SCHIACCIATA
Serves 6
1 cake compressed yeast, 1 packet active dry yeast or 1 packet quick-rising yeast
A pinch of sugar
1 cup warm water
4 1/4 cups Italian “00” flour or cake flour
2 egg yolks
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar, plus extra to sprinkle
Finely grated peel of 1 unwaxed lemon
3/4 cup walnuts, chopped
8 ounces black grapes, seeded (Sangiovese wine grapes, if possible)
2 cups heavy cream or mascarpone
3 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
6 tablespoons Vin Santo
1 jelly roll pan, 9 x 13 inches, oiled
If you are using compressed yeast, mix it with the sugar in a medium bowl, then beat in the warm water. Leave for 10 minutes until frothy. For other yeasts, follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Sift the flour into a large bowl and make a well in the center. Pour in the yeast mixture, egg yolks, olive oil, and salt. Mix until the dough comes together. Tip out onto a lightly floured work surface. Wash and dry your hands. Knead the dough for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. It should be quite soft, but if it’s too soft to handle, add more flour. Place in an oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel, and let rise until doubled in size - about 1 hour.
To make the walnut butter, cream the butter and sugar together, then stir in the lemon peel and walnuts. Keep at room temperature.
Uncover the dough, punch out the air, then shape into a ball. Roll or pull the dough into a rectangle to line the prepared jelly roll pan. Spread the walnut butter over the schiacciata crust, add the grapes, and sprinkle with brown sugar. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and let rise for 1 hour until puffy and doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Uncover the dough and bake for 15 minutes. Turn the oven down to 350 F and bake for 20 minutes more or until risen and golden. Let cool slightly before turning out.
To make the Vin Santo cream, beat the cream, confectioners’ sugar and Vin Santo together in a bowl until the mixture forms soft peaks. Cut the focaccia into wedges and serve with the Vin Santo cream.
EmmaLampertCooper: ROCHESTER’S PAINTER OF LIGHT
BY KAYLEE DUDA
BeforeRochester became synonymous with photography, the city was home to a pioneering artist who mastered the art of capturing light and life in a different medium. Emma Lampert Cooper, an acclaimed Impressionist painter, broke through societal barriers to establish herself as one of the most celebrated artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Her story is one of perseverance, passion, and a deep connection to her craft that still resonates today.
Born in Nunda in 1855 (and moving to Rochester with her family in 1864), Emma Lampert displayed an early affinity for art. Growing up in a period when opportunities for women were limited, especially in the arts, she pursued her talent with remarkable determination. She graduated from Wells College inAurora, NY, then advanced her studies at the Art Students League in NYC, a renowned institution that nurtured some of the greatest artistic talents of the era.
Lampert led the art department of the Foster School in Clifton Springs for two years and taught painting classes for five years at the Mechanics Institute, known today as the Rochester Institute of Technology. As the Rochester Art Club formed in 1877, Lampert served as its first vice president, embarking on a decades-long relationship with the club.
Lampert’s work quickly garnered attention, both at home and abroad. By the time she began exhibiting her art internationally, she had developed a distinctive style rooted in the ideals of the Impressionist movement. Her paintings often featured serene landscapes bathed in soft, diffused light, evoking a sense of tranquility and wonder. While many Impressionists focused on capturing fleeting moments, Lampert brought her own perspective to the movement, blending atmosphere with a dreamlike quality that set her work apart.
Her landscapes, often pastoral in nature, were her signature, but Cooper’s versatility extended to architectural subjects as well. She had a particular talent for depicting European landmarks, which she rendered with a striking balance of precision and mood. These works were inspired by her extensive travels with her husband, Colin Campbell Cooper, a fellow artist whose career frequently intertwined with her own. The couple’s shared passion for art and exploration led them across Europe, where Cooper’s brush brought iconic structures and idyllic countryside scenes to life.
Although her career took her far from Rochester, Cooper’s ties to her hometown remained strong. At the Mechanics Institute, she mentored young artists and championed the arts within the community. Her presence in Rochester’s artistic circles was significant, not only for her contributions as an educator but also as a role model for women pursuing creative careers.
Cooper exhibited her paintings widely, earning medals in prestigious exhibitions in Paris, Atlanta, Chicago, and New York City. Her international acclaim placed her among a select group of women artists who achieved recognition during a time when the art world was overwhelmingly male-dominated.
Yet, despite her successes, Cooper’s legacy often remains overshadowed by her male counterparts, which makes her story even more compelling. She not only persevered in the face of societal limitations but thrived, creating a body of work that continues to captivate viewers more than a century later.
Today, Emma Lampert Cooper’s art can be found in galleries across the United States, including Rochester’s Memorial Art Gallery and Strong National Museum of Play. Her work serves as a testament to her technical expertise and her ability to convey emotion through light and color. Her influence extends beyond her canvases; through her teaching and mentorship, she inspired a generation of artists to pursue their passions and defy expectations.
In many ways, Cooper was ahead of her time. She understood the power of art to transcend boundaries and connect people across cultures. Her paintings capture the world’s physical beauty but also the intangible essence of the places she depicted.
Emma Lampert Cooper’s story is one of quiet defiance and artistic triumph.At a time when women faced immense challenges in achieving recognition, she forged her own path with unwavering determination. Her legacy, preserved in her art and the lives she touched, continues to shine as a beacon for those who dare to dream and create. Rochester can proudly claim her as one of its own—a pioneer whose light still illuminates the world of art.

DIFFERENT WAYS TO HELP RESOLUTIONS STICK THIS YEAR
Get support or talk it out. Speaking about what you are going through and getting reassurance from other people can work wonders to strengthen resilience. When the desire to quit sneaks up, you can consult with a friend or consider a support group. For example, taking a group class at the gym may be a more effective motivational tool than working out solo.
FAMILY-FRIENDLY WINTER ACTIVITIES
Sledding: Sledding may remind adults of their childhoods and turn kids’ snow days into fun afternoons they will never forget. Kids can seemingly ride their sleds and toboggans down snowy hills all day long, but even parents get a kick out of racing kids downhill or sharing a sled with their youngsters. While older kids can typically handle sleds on their own, parents should ride along with toddlers to prevent falls and handle steering duties. When sledding, keep a close eye for any signs that suggest kids might be getting too cold, such as shivering or clothes that are soaked through.
