Breakfast Pizza

Route 5, Stafford • 343-6972

A Sweet Way to Start the Day

Start each school day on a sweet note with all-natural sweetener instead of syrup on breakfast favorites. Maguey Sap is an unrefined and unprocessed alternative sweetener with unique flavor. Buy a bottle of Maguey Sap.

Maguey Sap Glazed Bacon

Yield: 8 slices

Prep time: 5 minutes

Cook time: 25 minutes

8 slices hickory smoked bacon

4 tablespoons Maguey Sap

Heat oven to 400∞F.

On foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, arrange bacon in single layer (use baking rack for crispier bacon). Bake until fat is rendered and bacon is beginning to brown, about 15-18 minutes.

Put

on pizza for a quick, satisfying breakfast kids and adults will love. Start with sliced naan or a whole wheat bagel. Toast to warm and add a smear of ricotta cheese. Then top with sliced tomatoes and sprinkle with a dash of fleur de sel and dried basil, if desired. If you prefer a sweeter pizza, skip the tomatoes and use sliced fruit instead. This tasty breakfast will fight hunger pangs straight until lunchtime.

Remove from oven and brush one side with Maguey Sap. Bake another 3-5 minutes, or until coated side of bacon is browned. Remove from oven and flip each piece using tongs. Brush second side with Maguey Sap. Bake another 3-5 minutes, or until browned.

Drain away grease and allow bacon to rest 5 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy with your favorite pancakes.

Get creative with serving dishes. Muffin tins can be put to use in different ways as handy serving dishes. Use them to keep several filled beverages upright and manageable when serving guests. Or try a tin for condiments at a barbecue. Place pickles, relish, ketchup, mustard, and onions in each section for easy burger fixings.

TIPS FOR BETTER

Embrace the no-cook oatmeal method. Master the art of making overnight oats, which don’t require any cooking. Simply layer oats, Greek yogurt, applesauce (or other fruit purees),cinnamon,and almond milk in a mason jar.Place it in the refrigerator overnight.

HOW TO HELP SENIORS ADAPT TO AUTOMOTIVE TECH

Learn the tech yourself: Assistance technologies are not all one and the same.Vehicle manufacturers have their own systems and there can be a learning curve when adapting to a new one. If you aspire to teach a senior how to utilize the assistance technologies in his or her vehicle, first learn the tech on your own. If both you and your aging friend or family member own a Subaru, chances are you already know how to use the tech in your loved one’s vehicle. If you drive cars made by different manufacturers, visit the dealership where your loved one bought his or her car and ask for a quick tutorial on all the safety features in the vehicle. Salesman demonstrate these features every day, so it shouldn’t take long for them to show you the ropes.

CORNER

Can This Dog be Trained?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Recently, a new member joined our family: a toy poodle mix named Petey who was rehomed by an acquaintance who said they just couldn’t handle him and that he was untrainable. Petey is 4 years old, bounces everywhere, and loves to play soccer by catching a ball and then bouncing it off of his front paws back toward me. He’s incredibly smart, but training him has indeed been a challenge. I know the previous owners never made an effort to train him in basic obedience, and they le him alone for days at a time. His house-training is spotty. How can I make the training process faster and easier for both of us? - Doug L., Burlington, Vermont

DEAR DOUG: You’ve taken on a real challenge: a smart, independent and energetic dog. Petey sounds like a wonderful little guy, though, and I’m so glad you’ve added him to your family and committed to his well-being.

Building trust with Petey is important so that he knows what to expect from you and the rest of the family. Do that by adhering to a schedule: walks, feeding and training at the same time each day, with as little deviation as possible.

Obedience-training a smart and independent dog requires you to be smart about training, too. Petey needs to know the house rules, and he must want to do the things you’re asking him to do (or not do). Look into positive reinforcement methods like clicker training (https://www. akc.org/expert-advice/training/clicker-training-your-dog-mark-andreward/). Commit to a consistent training regimen so that desirable behaviors are reinforced and negative ones are discouraged. Work with a trainer if you are still struggling with Petey a er a few weeks.

Winner of the 2021 Community Choice Award

If you ask 10 gardeners how they winterize their gardens you get 10 answers... all good ones.

I like to cut my peonies and hostas down to 3-4” so that the “ratty” looking leaves don’t irritate me all winter when I look out my windows! That saves me time in the Spring.

I also save some mulch (or buy/get more) to pile on to those beds that I want to keep from getting “weedy” now & in the early spring.

Besides harvesting all my veggies & cleaning out extraneous vegetation

from those beds, this year (instead of mulching) I am going to plant a “cover” crop of mustard seed to rejuvenate those beds.

Finally, I have dahlias that I dig up when they’re done blooming (& store inside for the winter) and daffodil bulbs to plant before the snow flies.

Harvest all crops. Pull up all plants. Sort diseased and seed bearing and discard. Weeds should be removed to get rid or seeds and insects. Remainder of plants can be mixed with leaves and composted. Test soil pH in Fall in order to

prep soil for Spring. Clean and disinfect outdoor equipment. Put it away in a dry place.Make any notes on current garden noting soil amendments, rotations, pests, or other concerns for next year.

For my vegetable gardens, I totally clean them out except for late season/ winter vegetables- kale, winter density spinach & greens, carrots and garlic. Pulling all plants and vines and discarding them in a place away and downwind of the garden for biosecurity. The garden is then rototilled. I prefer to seed the freshly tilled garden with oats as they help clean the soil. In one known to be very wet garden, that is not an option as it would mean not being able to get on it to spring tiller in a timely manner ( June or July??) So that wet garden is often free seeded w/ perennials/herb mixture such as dill, red clover, old sunflower seed. It is surprising what comes up next year and is also fun to watch the turkeys in that wet garden.

Hydrate Evergreens

Deep soaks in the fall are important if autumn has been dry. Conifers, such as yews, and broadleaf evergreens, such as hollies and boxwoods, are susceptible to winter burn because they release moisture through their leaves year-round. Pay particular attention to broadleaf types that have a south/ southwest exposure to the afternoon sun, and give them extra water as needed.

Protect Bark on Young Trees

Newly planted trees, especially fruit trees, have thin bark that can suffer sun scald or crack from fluctuating day/night temperatures. Tree wrap tape and plastic spiral tree protectors can help prevent this problem.

Kenneth Glenn Estes, Jr | Agriculture Program Manager

PREPARE YOUR LAWN & GARDEN FOR WINTER

Mulch leaves. Falling leaves are a telltale sign that winter is coming. In lieu of raking leaves as they begin to fall, homeowners can mulch them into their lawns. Scotts®, an industry leader in lawn care, notes that mulching leaves is a great way for homeowners to recycle a natural resource and enrich the soil of their lawns. While it might not be possible to mulch fallen leaves in late autumn when they begin to fall en masse, doing so in the early stages of fall should be possible so long as the lawn is not being suffocated. Scotts® recommends mulching the leaves to dime-size pieces to a point where half an inch of grass can be seen through the mulched leaf layer.

Forests decay, harvests perish, flowers vanish, but grass is immortal.

PROBLEMS THAT CAN LEAD TO LAWN DAMAGE

Lack of sunlight: All plants need the proper ratio of sunlight to grow. Too much sunlight and plant blades can scorch. Too little sunlight and grass may turn brown and die. Although there are shade-tolerant varieties of grass, homeowners also can explore alternative landscapes. Work in a garden bed or create a design that utilizes gravel or mulch. Avoid aggressively pruning back trees to give the lawn more sunlight in that area, as this may just damage the trees.

- Brian Ingalls

BUDGET-FRIENDLY WAYS TO UPGRADE A LANDSCAPE Upgrade walkways. Though it’s more expensive than adding planters and planting perennials, upgrading old and cracked walkways is a great way to give a property a whole new look. According to the renovation experts at HomeAdvisor, homeowners typically pay between $6 and $12 per square foot for new concrete walkway installation. Homeowners working on a budget can target spots where walkways have already cracked and fix those areas first before continuing the project piecemeal until all the old walkways have been replaced.

On the whole I take it that middle ageisahappierperiodthanyouth. In the entire circle of the year there are no days so delightful as those of a fine October, when the trees are bare to the mild heavens, and the red leaves bestrew the road, and you can feel the breath of winter morning and evening—no days so calm, so tenderly solemn, and with such a reverent meekness in the air.

Cemetery Thank You

Now that I'm back on my feet again after two falls, I'd like to send out a huge thank you to two people who helped me on Father's Day at Oakwood Cemetery. While trying to plant a flower, I lost my footing, fell, and was unable to get up. When I called for help, a lovely lady heard me and signaled a man in a white car who told me his name was Andrew. Andrew was driving his baby around to get him to sleep. Andrew got me upright, walked me to my car, put my walker in the trunk, and then proceeded to finish planting the flower. How great was that?! And how lucky that baby will grow up with Andrew as his father. And how lucky I was to have that lovely lady look for help for me.

Awesome staff

I am a Senior Citizen who gets treated badly by some younger people, however when I attend senior activities at the Henrietta Senior Center, Shelly and her staff treat all of us well. The same happens at the Wheatland Senior Center where Shanna and her staff go out of their way to make seniors feel happy and comfortable. Thank you all, but especially Shanna and Shelly.

Get me to the church on time….NOT!

I detest weddings, and here is why: They have become showy extravaganzas.The music is so loud that one must shout to talk with others. The expenses for the gown, the reception, the band, and the food, not to mention any other perks deemed “necessary” are excessive. And why get married in a church when a garden or a barn or a beach will do? What happened to modest weddings where couples exchange their vows before God and truly mean it? What happened to guests wearing respectful and modest clothing? What happened to families rejoicing in the union of two families and where children are welcome? Weddings were meant to be holy and beautiful celebrations of the sacrament of marriage.

Motorcycles

This is not for responsible motorcyclists. This is for irresponsible motorcyclists. To put it bluntly, stop riding like self-centered idiots! Speeding, ignoring stop signs, passing on double yellow lines, etc. In addition to making automobiles aware of motorcycles, how about a campaign directed at irresponsible riders. Motorcycles vs. automobiles in a crash: the bike looses.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Keith Roach, M.D.

Finding the Cause Behind Emphysema and Ways to Minimize It

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am male, age 65. I exercise regularly. A shortness of breath led me to get a chest X-ray, which showed that I have emphysema. I smoked for 10 years, but quit 33 years ago. As an avid runner, this revelation was perplexing and depressing. Is it possible that other factors contributed to me getting emphysema, and how do I minimize this disease, if possible? -- T.W.

ANSWER: Emphysema is most often caused by smoking in North America or by cooking fires in many parts of the world. The exact type of emphysema you have can help tell what caused it, but that usually requires a biopsy, which is generally unnecessary for a diagnosis or treatment. Although X-rays and CT scans can help with the diagnosis, the definitive study is the pulmonary function test. For this test, you must breathe in and out for more times and in more ways than you ever thought was possible with a respiratory technician and a lot of machines. (When I was a fourth-year medical student, I had my own PFTs done as a learning experience -- thank you, Dr. Julian Solway -- and have respect for how hard they are to perform correctly.) Besides smoke exposure, another cause is the genetic Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, which can affect the liver as well. This diagnosis is made by blood testing and confirmed by DNA testing through a genetic counselor. I always consider this diagnosis in a person with emphysema who is a nonsmoker or has minimal smoking history. If you do have AAT deficiency, there may be other treatments available, but specific treatment requires special expertise.

Regardless of the cause behind your emphysema, you have already made the most important change by quitting smoking. Avoiding secondhand smoke and other lung irritants is important, too.

There are no treatments to reverse emphysema, but many can improve symptoms. These include medication (such as inhalers), pulmonary rehabilitation and oxygen in people with emphysema that is severe enough to cause low blood oxygen levels. Most people who quit smoking have a very slow progression of the disease. However, it’s important to quit smoking as soon as possible so that there is enough reserve lung function. ***

Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual questions, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@med.cornell.edu.

HOW TO REGISTER TO VOTE

Election Day occurs every November, and it’s the duty of all eligible United States citizens to exercise their right to vote. Doing so is the easiest way Americans can actively participate in government. Participating in federal, state and local government can be done in many ways, but few are as easy and important as voting. The following are a few voting guidelines to consider as Election Day approaches.

ELIGIBILITY: Only United States citizens can vote in federal, state and local elections. In many states, voters must be 18 years old to vote. However, some states do afford 17-year-olds the right to vote. Voter eligibility may also depend on the voter’s residency. Each state has its own residency requirements. To learn the requirements in your state, visit the United States Election Assistance Commission at www.eac.gov.

REGISTRATION: Voters must register to vote before they can vote in an election. The National Mail Voter Registration Form is accepted in most states, and this form can be found at www.eac.gov. In addition to helping voters register, this form can be used to update one’s registration due to a change of name or make a change of address or register with a particular political party. North Dakota, Wyoming, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands do not accept the National Mail Voter Registration Form, while New Hampshire only accepts it as a request for an absentee voter mail-in registration form. Residents of these states or territories should consult their local state election office to learn how they can register to vote.

Voters may also be able to register to vote in person at various public facilities. This varies from state to state, but such facilities may include the nearest Department of Motor Vehicles office, the local election office, public assistance agencies, armed services recruitment centers or any public facility that has been designated as a voter registration agency by the state.

Some states allow voters to register to vote online. Contact your local state election office to learn if your state allows online voter registration. The state registration deadlines vary from state to state as well. Contact the state election office no less than 45 days in advance of Election Day to learn the requirements in your state.

HOW SMALL BUSINESSES CAN MAKE THE MOST OF LOCAL MARKETS

Make things easy for customers: Cash was once king at community festivals and marketplaces, but the convenience of plastic and even touch-less payments has long since replaced hard currency as consumers’ preferred method of payment. In fact, a recent study from Visa found that contact-less payment usage in the United States grew by 150 percent between March 2019 and March 2020. Card readers are inexpensive and easy to use. Businesses can still accept cash payments, as accepting both cash and card increases the chances of making more money.

Shopping local shops, farms and fairs is a great way to enjoy the fresh autumn air while supporting local businesses.

Here’s a tip

* You can plant deciduous trees (trees that lose their leaves in the fall) strategically in order to reduce your heating and cooling costs. eir leaves grow in the spring, blocking summer’s heating rays, but when winter comes, they fall off to let the sun in, warming things up a bit.

* Keep nail-polish bottles easy to open by rubbing a little bit of petroleum jelly inside the cap of the bottle.

* M.C. in Arizona would like to know some alternative uses for hair conditioner. Here goes: use as a shaving lotion for legs or face; a makeup remover; ouch-free bandage removal; so en makeup brushes or paintbrushes before storage; get knots out of doll hair or costume wigs; wash delicates (think silks and pantyhose); rub on a shower rod to help curtain glide effortlessly; and lastly, soak a shrunken sweater in a conditioner/water solution to so en the fibers, then gently try stretching the sweater back to size.

* “Clean an egg carton very well. Flip it over and make slits in each egg cup. is works wonders as a child’s card holder for card games.” -- L.P. in Maryland

DID YOU KNOW?

The terms “hospice” and “palliative” are not interchangeable. Hospice care is a form of palliative care geared toward patients with terminal illnesses facing their final months or weeks of life. Palliative care, according to WebMD, aims to ease pain and provide help to people confronting a serious illness, even if it’s not necessarily life-threatening. Palliative care may include assistance for those with cancer, kidney disease, multiple sclerosis, or any number of conditions. Illnesses can make it difficult to live life fully, and palliative care is used in conjunction with other treatments to improve quality of life.

Genesee Valley Health Partnership Promotes Health and Awareness for Livingston County Residents and Businesses

BY SUZIE WELLS

Since 2000, Genesee Valley Health Partnership (GVHP) has helped the community as a nonprofit integrated rural health network of over forty multi-sector organizations based in or who provide services in Livingston County. Network members represent healthcare, education, government agencies, law enforcement, veterans, and many community-based organizations.

According to GVHP’s contracted coordinator, Jackie Woollett, the partnerships aim to improve the health and well-being of the Livingston County community through collaboration, education, and prevention. e GVHP operates through a committee structure focused on community priorities and health disparities.

Currently there are three committees. e Be Well in Livingston Committee encourages the community to eat better, move more, and stress less. e Suicide Prevention Taskforce focuses on reducing suicide through awareness, education, training, and outreach efforts.

e Trauma-Informed Care Committee promotes the development of resilient and trauma informed communities through prevention, education, outreach, and policy changes.

GVHP presents obesity and chronic diseases as more likely causing risks for serious health problems, and since Livingston County tends to statistically have slightly poorer health compared to the rest of upstate New York, Be Well in Livingston suggests opportunities to support sustainable healthy lifestyle choices that promote healthy living by implementing policy, system, and environmental changes to reduce obesity in children and adults.

For example, the initiative encourages organizations to become Healthy Worksites by making small changes such as adding stretch/stand breaks as agenda items in lengthy meetings, adding fruits, vegetables, water, and other healthy options to events, and other such reasonably-implementable changes. By modeling healthy behavior and supporting employees’ healthy choices, companies can help make health a workplace priority.

Be Well in Livingston also posts activities calendars to encourage the community to get out and enjoy each other’s company while being more active and helping their overall health.

In the last two years, two Be Well Communities have started in Nunda and Mt. Morris. e Be Well Committee looks to add other interested towns/villages to the Be Well Communities list. e pandemic challenged in-person events and outreach; however, the GVHP seeks to focus on more in-person marketing and promotion efforts this year.

September is Suicide Prevention Month, and the GVHP’s Suicide Prevention initiative encourages residents to become informed of the mental distress signs to look for with their family, friends, and neighbors. With that information, the GVHP informs and encourages familiesto“LockMeds.LockGuns.TalkSafety”tohelpsavelivesinthe

community. e Taskforce supported by the GVHP offers gatekeeper training for community members, community-based organizations, and schools. Information on these training opportunities is shared on the GVHP Facebook page, in the monthly Health Flash newsletter, and by contacting info@gvhp.org.

is initiative focuses on mental health literacy, understanding how to nurture and maintain good mental health. By understanding mental disorders, their symptoms, and their treatments, the initiative decreases the stigma typically surrounding mental health concerns, allowing people to find the community of help they need, and decreasing the chances of suicide in people of all ages. e GVHP also connects Livingston County residents to the FLX Teens are Alright project, informational materials and programs to improve mental health literacy for middle and high schoolers in the Finger Lakes region.

Key concepts of the FLX Teens are Alright project are:

1. Emotions are normal and valid

2. You matter and are not alone

3. Our generation is facing unique challenges that adults may not understand

4. Speak up for yourself and ask for what you need

In the Trauma-Informed Communities initiative, GVHP helps “create communities in which every child can thrive.” is initiative promotes resilient, trauma-informed communities in the county through prevention, education, outreach, and policy changes. ey offer resources to manage stress and self-regulate emotions and calm oneself despite daily or emergency stressors. e breathing exercises the initiative offers can help all people. Activities and strategies offered through this initiative help build stronger community members.

GVHPhostsits3rdannualSafety&WellnessFaironSaturday,May 20th at the Livingston County Campus on Murray Hill. e event will be from 11am - 2pm and will feature hands-on activities, educational displays, a free Child Passenger Safety Seat Check Event, and much more. Cornell Cooperative Extension of Livingston County leads this community event and many of the GVHP membership attends to share programs and services available to community members!

e Genesee Valley Partnership always seeks new members and partnerships to work towards Livingston County residents being the healthiest in New York State. Please visit the website for more information on becoming a member www.gvhp.org

BOOST ENERGY AT THE OFFICE

Make sure you’re getting enough sleep. Failing to get adequate sleep can have an adverse impact on your career. According to the Division of Sleep Medicine at Harvard Medical School, failure to get enough sleep, even for just one night, can impair a person’s ability to function by affecting his or her ability to focus and access high-level cognitive functions. A panel of experts from sleep, anatomy and physiology, as well as pediatrics, neurology, gerontology and gynecology convened by the National Sleep Foundation in 2015 recommended adults between the ages of 26 and 64 get between seven and nine hours of sleep per night. Make a concerted effort to get more sleep if you’re falling short of those recommended guidelines.
