Understanding the Arkansas Long-Term Care Partnership Program
I
was recently trying to help my Mom with balancing her retirement savings with the potential costs of long-term care. We were looking at the choice of maintaining the long-term care policy she has had for years or finding other alternatives. During my research, I came across the website for the Arkansas Long-Term Care Partnership. “The Arkansas Long-Term Care Partnership is a new innovation that combines private long-term care insurance coverage with Arkansas Medicaid. The Arkansas Long-Term Care Partnership program was created to reward residents of Arkansas who plan ahead for their future long-term care needs by providing them with private long-term care insurance coverage and the ability to receive Medicaid assistance without having to spend down the larger portion of their assets. The Arkansas Long-Term Care Partnership program works in the same manner as most all other partnership programs, in that the program provides a dollar-for-dollar asset protection. Each dollar your long-term care insurance partnership policy pays out in benefits entitles you to keep a dollar of your assets if you ever need to apply for Medicaid.” - Arkansas Long-Term Care Partnership Program That sounds like a great option. If you are caring for someone who has long term care insurance, or is considering purchas-
ing a long term care policy, it might be helpful to become familiar with this program. Our local Department of Human Services (DHS) office should have information on the policy. We are all familiar that to qualify for Medicaid, you are normally required to reach a very low level of assets, which seems to result in the creation of a plan to spend down the family’s funds. DHS indicates that with a Long-Term Care Partnership policy, you may get to keep more of what you’ve earned and saved, provided you meet other Medicaid eligibility requirements including the income standards. The statement that captured my attention is this, “In its calculation of eligibility for Medicaid benefits, Medicaid will disregard or exclude assets equal to the amount of benefits paid under a Long-Term Care Partnership policy.” If I understand that correctly, it means that if you have a long-term care policy and it pays for five years while you have assets, Medicaid will allow you to keep an amount equal to what has been paid even though you are receiving Medicaid payments. If that is true, it seems that all young adults should be buying long term care insurance. It’s less expensive when you’re younger and healthier and if it protects your future assets, that may be a good alternative.
There are a number of key points to remember about Medicaid eligibility: - It is determined on a case-by-case basis by the Arkansas Department of Human Services. - Determinations are completed by the applicant’s local Department of Human Services (DHS) county office. - Medicaid eligibility has specific rules for married couples when one or both are receiving long-term care services. - Medicaid eligibility rules may change periodically. Individuals who have questions should contact their local DHS county office. This is a topic that deserves some attention and review. I will keep you posted on future findings.∞ Bill Kerst President, Community First Trust Company. He has been conducting educational seminars on IRAs, asset management, and trust management for over 15 years. He has served as the moderator for the Income Taxation of Estates and Trusts course offered by the Arkansas Society of CPAs and provided many seminars to civic and church groups in the community.

The Buffalo Co Downtown Adventure Outfitters
T
he owners of The Buffalo Co in downtown Hot Springs across from Bathhouse Row have a treat for Hot Springs locals and visitors alike. Both natives of Hot Springs, Jess and Thad Elder are the proprietors of the only men’s specialty clothing store downtown. Maybe you’ve driven by it and wondered what was inside the store with the buffalo silhouette. Here is everything you need to know! Jess wanted to try something new after teaching for just a few years. After working downtown at a boutique owned by friends, she gained valuable knowledge about retail management, buying and stocking. So naturally, when a storefront became available, Thad and Jess jumped at the opportunity to start their own business. They soon began brainstorming about what downtown Hot Springs was missing. Ultimately, they both decided that a men’s clothing and accessory shop was needed to help complete the shopping experience for locals and visitors alike. Jess had heard several customers in the boutique complain about the absence of a men’s store downtown, so she and her husband decided a men’s store focusing on an active outdoor lifestyle would be their plan. Thus, The Buffalo Co at 318 Central Avenue was born and is now nestled between Tombstone Photos and Kilwins. After deciding on the location, Jess and Thad began their research into what product lines to carry in their shop. As they were both knowledgeable about the outdoor lifestyle, the choice was to focus on casual outdoor clothing and accessories. Jess explained, “Many of our brands give back to various non-profits, or they’re made from organic or recycled material. We don’t carry the brands that you usually find in most department stores and men’s clothing stores.” Approximately ninety percent of the products at The Buffalo Co are a variety of men’s clothing and accessories. They carry brands such as FX Fusion and Flag & Anthem, which are great quality lines at a reasonable price. Other highly sought-after brands include the rugged and quality products

Hot Springs LIFE & HOME | JULY 2019
of Mountain Khakis Outdoor Clothing and Vineyard Vines. An exclusive and eco-friendly brand carried by The Buffalo Co is Cotopaxi, which are durable backpacks and bags manufactured from recycled and organic material. No two bags are the same, and Cotopaxi gives a percentage of profits to alleviate extreme poverty through grants. Some additional top eco-friendly featured brands carried by The Buffalo Co are Ten Tree, United by Blue and Free Fly. Ten Tree literally plants “10” trees for every product they sell, and all material used is organic cotton or recycled polyester. United by Blue removes one pound of trash from the ocean for every item they sell. Free Fly products are made from bamboo, which makes the material a super comfortable, breathable, and moisture wicking for those wanting to spend quality time outdoors with sun protection built in to the clothing. The owners research and stand behind the brands they carry and can tell you the background story of almost every one. One of the products which I am enthusiastic about is Hey Dude Shoes. They are lightweight and comfortable, and some of their collection is made from
recycled plastic bottles. Jess explains, “We carry several varieties for men and women, and that they are like walking on a pillow.” Other products which have varieties for women include Free Fly and Vineyard Vines. Shoppers will also discover a wide variety of outdoor, camping and survival products such as hammocks and dry bags. This is a perfect place to visit before your next hiking or camping trip whether in Hot Springs, the Appalachians or the Rocky Mountains. Jess and Thad see all types of customers, from teenagers to retirees. Women shop for the men in their lives but end up finding something for themselves too, especially from the Free Fly and Hey Dude product lines. The Buffalo Co also provides gift certificates which makes it hard to go wrong getting a man’s gift. “We try to go with Arkansas’ brands if we can find them, or products from other small businesses. We would love to see our place be where local guys come to stock up on their newest styles for the season. Our passion is Downtown Hot Springs. It’s like a big family so we all help each other and would love to see it continue to grow. We want locals to realize what they are missing.” ∞

THE ARTS IN HOT SPRINGS Text by Carole Katchen & Richard Gipe
W
hen we opened the first Legacy Fine Art Gallery in Hot Springs some 20 plus years ago, we had no idea what impact art would have on the city. This had once been a thriving tourist resort, but the downtown shriveled up after the closing of casinos and bathhouses. Near the end of the 20th Century, it had become a sad collection of nostalgic businesses and boarded up storefronts. Who would imagine that just a few decades later Central Avenue would be named one of the Top Ten Great Streets in the United States by the American Planning Association? The renaissance of Hot Springs began in the 1980s when a handful of artists and art dealers, under the direction of Italian artist Benini, settled in Arkansas and began to build a bold future. The city began to show sculptures from Asia and paintings from Italy, as well as wonderful pieces by talented local artists. This was highlighted every month at Gallery Walk evenings when the whole community was invited to come downtown and share the art. Central Avenue came alive with the art galleries and studios that sprang up in nearly every low-rent building along the street. Before long, Hot Springs was listed in John Villani’s book “The 100 Best Small Art Towns in America.” The enthusiasm spread and other art ventures joined the esthetic excitement. The Hot Springs Music Festival, the Documentary Film Festival, the Wednesday Night Poetry Readings, the Hot Springs Jazzfest, and the Hot

Springs Blues Festival added to the art scene and are still going strong today. Over the years, the art activities expanded to include events for all ages. One of the first events for a young adult audience was The Valley of the Vapors Independent Music Festival, which brought the best of America’s independent music groups to our city. Another event for this audience is the relatively new Horror Film Festival. For the very young, Arts & the Park added a chalk-painting activity. There are also wonderful theatrical events that hold a place in our arts activities. The Pocket Theater is one local group that presents an array of plays ranging from side-splitting comedy to more somber tragedies. Maxwell Blade regularly brings the wonders of magic to the stage of his theater on Central. This list in no way includes all of the arts activities in our town.
Over the years Benini and several other of the original artists and galleries have moved on to new locations, but art continues to be a vital part of our life here. Ours was the first city in the area to decorate our Convention Center with original art and to create an elegant Sculpture Garden. Our local artists continue to receive national and international recognition. We are fortunate to have many wonderful sponsors and a city government that encourages our artistic development. Hot Springs has grown over the years with a variety of new festivals in addition to new hotels, restaurants and shops in the downtown area. However, we believe that our Gallery Walk is still a key part of our city’s personality, and we invite everyone to join the artists and galleries from 5-9 P.M. on the first Friday of every month. ∞

ducational activities and plans that allow kids to flex their brain muscles in fun and creative ways can be ideal ways to spend family time that makes lasting memories. While children typically gain invaluable knowledge and experience in the classroom, purposeful activities done outside of that setting can help encourage kids to keep learning and make family moments more enjoyable for everyone involved. From planning trips that celebrate animals and the great outdoors to rainy day activities at home that inspire creative expression, these ideas can produce some family moments worth remembering. 1. Go on a scavenger hunt. From native species of plants, animals and insects to neighborhood landmarks, there are plenty of interesting things that can be found right in 22 |

your own backyard. Organize a scavenger hunt and work together in teams of family members to search for each item on the list, then do more research on the things you found once you return home. For a real challenge, expand your hunt to the city limits of your hometown and make a day trip of the adventure. 2. Hang out with wildlife. Learn about different species of animals, how to help protect them and the importance of eco-friendly everyday practices by visiting a destination like an Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA)accredited zoo or aquarium. You can explore the challenges facing endangered species, discover how community programs are spurring positive change for conservation and learn more at aza.org. After learning about animals

that need help, you can visit zebrapen.com/aza for fun kids games, coloring pages and other activities that encourage creativity. Many animal sanctuaries and wildlife recovery centers also have endangered species and offer educational information about them. 3. Visit a national park. Many park ranger programs provide opportunities to interact with the animals that live in the area, as well as information about any endangered animals and how you can help with conservation efforts. While in the park, you can also enjoy a nature hike, have a picnic lunch and view the different species of plants in the region. 4. Enjoy an arts and crafts day. Spending time doing an art project is a hands-on way to help introduce kids to new ideas and ways of learning. Engage the entire family by creating crafts with different subjects of interest. This can help create conversations and opportunities to further explore what your children are interested in. 5. Organize a game day. A play day can be just as fun as it is educational. Choose from a variety of games that can allow players to get extra creative. Options like Pictionary or charades tap into different types of creative skills, which can keep everyone engaged while they’re learning to express themselves effectively in new ways. ∞
Make your family’s learning adventures more memorable by encouraging kids to capture their experiences on paper. The practice of communicating on paper can help lock in memories, plus it’s a clever way for kids to practice practical skills in an engaging and productive way. Adjust these ideas as needed to match the ability level of each child so the whole family can participate. 1. Write about experiences in a journal or diary. For older kids, encourage them to use words to describe their adventures. Ask younger kids to draw a scene or image that captured their attention or excited them the most. 2. Design a diorama about your family’s adventures to display in your home to show extended family and friends. Make it a conversation piece by asking kids to think about an endangered species and depict its living environment. Available in standard, glitter, neon, metallic and pastel colors, tools like Zebra Doodler’z® allow little designers to explore the nearly endless possibilities for color coding, sketching, journaling and embellishing. 3. Take photos to share with friends and family both online and in-person. Get creative with your photo-taking by encouraging kids to think about the story they’ll tell through the images. It might be a series of selfies tackling exciting new activities or documenting a sibling’s first experience at the petting zoo. Another way to capture photographic memories is a photo treasure hunt, where kids have a list of items to search for and photograph during each outing. 4. Create a family calendar to plan your summer activities together. Anticipating upcoming adventures is part of the fun. Let kids help you keep track of what’s coming up and build excitement with a personalized calendar. Make it a work of art by asking kids to draw icons or small images that depict upcoming activities with an option like Zebra’s Sarasa® Fineliner Pens, which are available in 12 vibrant colors. 5. Share experiences on social media. Let friends and family in on the fun by sharing your photos, drawings, dioramas and other creations online. Seeing the positive interaction and praise-filled comments from loved ones can help reinforce the value of creative expression to impressionable young minds. 6. Create scrapbooks to help remember family moments. Keep the pace of life from fading those precious memories by assembling scrapbooks to commemorate family adventures. Make the scrapbook a family affair with everyone contributing their own creations. Find more ideas for capturing and sharing experiences at zebrapen.com. ∞

ith plans of trips and relaxation on the horizon, it can be easy to give your wellness routine a vacation, too. Before you jet set off on your next adventure, take a moment to be consciously aware of how your mind and body may react to an overly active and jam-packed summer schedule. “As someone with a busy lifestyle, having an intentional, balanced wellness routine helps me be my best self for my job, my friends and my family,” said actress and wellness advocate Mandy Moore. Partnering with Nature’s Way to celebrate its 50th birthday, Moore shares a passion for paving a better way to wellness. While no single trick or technique guarantees well-rounded health, it’s really about establishing habits that work best for you and your lifestyle. Your routine may often change daily depending where you are on your wellness journey, but Moore shares thoughtful considerations to always keep in mind: 1. Start from Within. It’s important to understand the connection between your mind and body. “I recognize it takes time, trust and baby steps, but the outcome is incredibly rewarding,” Moore said. “I’m a strong believer in the power of therapy and find my most important work is done during

the moments when I feel like I’m operating at 100 percent.” She also recommends downloading a meditation app, calling a friend or writing in a journal to help balance a hectic summer schedule. 2. Seek New Ways to Nourish Your Body. Wellness goes beyond simply what you put on your plate. Listening to your body can help you go the extra mile, especially when you’re traveling, which is why Moore takes Alive! Women’s Energy from Nature’s Way, packed with 16 different health-benefiting vitamins and minerals. Drinking water-based beverages is a big piece of her wellness routine, as well. She loves relaxing with tea sourced from around the globe and drinking water with liquid chlorophyll for an internal refresher. 3. Breathe in the Sights, Scents and Sounds of Nature. In today’s fastpaced world, it’s important to take time to breathe; to take in nature’s true beauty. Watch a sunset, walk through a park or get away from the city lights so you can really see the stars shine. Be more proactive this summer and immerse yourself in environments that truly allow you to feel renewed. Moore loves to go hiking and walks her dogs, Jackson and Joni, each day. “There’s something that’s innately healing about feeling connected to the ground
– feeling grounded, literally, to the world around you,” Moore said. 4. Unplug to Recharge. Even if your schedule constantly keeps you on the go,

it’s important for your mental health and well-being to take time to unplug and find different ways to clear your mind. “Take moments to step away from the computer, tablet or phone – put it in the other room, let it charge and do something
first things I do when I get home is light a candle.” For more ways to take care of your body and mind this summer, visit 50.naturesway.com. ∞

MAKE YOUR BACKYARD THE PERFECT OUTDOOR SPACE
T
o make the transition to summer season effortless, there may be some backyard upgrades and prep to be done to ensure your outdoor space is in tiptop shape. From your pool and patio to the grill, these tips can help get your backyard summer-ready. Overhaul the Patio Patios and decks are often considered the hub of the backyard, so consider sprucing yours up by power-washing the stone to remove any winter buildup or use stain for a complete refresh. Adding a pergola or umbrellas can help protect you from the elements and, for added comfort, consider installing an outdoor ceiling fan for humid days and a fire pit or patio heater for cooler nights. Upgrade Outdoor Furniture To ensure your backyard furniture lasts, invest in materials such as teak wood, redwood, cedar or stainless steel, which are typically durable and low-maintenance. If you want to add a personal touch, consider colorful cushions, throw pillows or an area rug made of weatherproof fabric. Smarten Up Your Pool and Backyard With smart homes on the rise, today’s tech-savvy homeowners are not only looking to automate appliances and gadgets inside the home, but now want smart controls in their outdoor spaces, as well. For example, Hayward’s OmniHub smart pool control offers pool owners the convenience and customization of complete pool, spa and backyard lighting automation from smart devices.

Prep Your Grill Get ahead of barbecue season by building in ample time to prep your grill. Scrub or season your grill grates to avoid rust, stock up on charcoal and wood chips, check gas grills for leaks and fill up your propane tank. For safety, make sure your grill is at least 10 feet away from your home, outdoor structures and any trees or bushes. Convert Your Pool to Salt Water For the ultimate in pool luxury, consider switching your traditional chlorine
pool to salt water. It’s a surprisingly simple project that can transform your pool experience. Salt pools offer owners soft, clean and clear water that won’t irritate eyes, dry out skin and hair, give off harsh odors or cause bathing suits to fade. Designed to be a convenient alternative to conventional chlorine, Hayward’s AquaRite system gently dissolves salt into the perfect amount of chlorine to sanitize your pool without harsh chemicals while creating velvety-smooth water.
Keep the Bugs at Bay Mosquitos and other bugs can put a damper on outdoor entertaining, so be sure to stock up on repellents to ensure a bug-free backyard. Keep citronella or eucalyptus candles and torches on hand to maintain a pest-free space. Whether you’re planning a family barbecue or pool party, or just want a space that offers the ultimate in tranquility, visit hayward.com for more tips to help jumpstart your home improvement project. ∞

he Racing Festival of the South concluded in April with the 83rd running of the Arkansas Derby, ending with Omaha Beach majestically crowned inside the Winner’s Circle. Thoroughbred racing in Hot Springs is a revered and storied tradition, held in high regard among residents and visitors alike, since 1905. In over a century, Oaklawn Racing Casino has evolved into a well-respected and well-attended industry staple. Coveted horse racing forever at the center of business, only six General Managers have overseen the progressive changes that have catapulted Oaklawn into an equine mecca and competitive casino and event venue.

Wayne and Audrey Smith relocated to the Spa City a few years ago, as Wayne took on the position of Assistant General Manager. In 2017, Wayne was named General Manager, a position that has him overseeing the new expansion currently underway. Though they have busy and demanding schedules, Wayne and Audrey have found time to settle into life in the south. Becoming involved in community events and volunteering have established the family as locals. The couple has chaired auctions for both Splash of Red and Heart Ball. “The people of Hot Springs are amazing and so welcoming, says Audrey. “I have joined Circle of Friends to support Arkansas Children’s Hospital, and Wayne and I hosted a fundraiser for The Call at the Hot Springs Country Club.” In 2016, the family purchased a home in Arlington Park, where they acclimated to their new lives. During the process, the cou-

ple decided to take elements of the house they loved and combine them with their ideas for a new design. The Smith’s wanted their new home to be a reflection of themselves-a growing and busy family with frequently visiting friends and business clients. Wayne often entertains guests affiliated with racing and gaming. Living spaces needed to be open and spacious, yet elegantly personal. The couple worked very closely with their builder, implementing many of their designs into the plan, such as a secret room and a builtin banquette in the living room. The result of their efforts yielded a modern castle with traditional and old-world touches. Cream colored brick and mortar is highlighted with natural stone in light earthy tones, forming an elegant and welcoming exterior to the home. An imposing turret

dominates the front corner of the residence, holding a few secrets of its own. The entryway explodes with light thanks to a door of glass and scrolling ironwork. A white barrel ceiling floats above, leading guests into the foyer. An eye-catching shade of teal dances on the formal dining room wall while black and white family photos dress the space, and an iron chandelier hangs from a Victorian-esque medallion. “I needed a pop of color,” says Audrey. “It’s fun. I don’t like too much color, and this can be changed when I want something different.” Soothing tones of grey and white contrast-rich browns in the chef’s kitchen. A large Cambria quartz-topped island provides ample working space and plenty of elbow room at the dining bar. Rich chestnut cabinetry grounds the space while white cabinetry floats around the perimeter. Stainless professional appliances bring an industrial feel to the inviting space. The polished grey tile backsplash accents the wet bar, stove, and counter prep areas.
“I really liked the look of hand-fired tile, and our tile layer did an amazing job,” Audrey says. “The backsplash has an organic look with different textures and flowing lines instead of hard, straight angles.” While in the kitchen preparing a meal or making kid-friendly snacks, Audrey can
freely enjoy family and guests thanks to the open floor plan. The kitchen flows into the family room, where a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows with transoms bathes the home in ethereal light. Built-in cabinetry creates a family trophy case surrounding a cozy fireplace and wall-mounted television. Throughout the home, soaring ceilings-13

ing from the bathing areas to the floor, creates a seamless hardscape. Softening the space is a circular white rug, home to a teal ottoman offering a surprising pop of color. The second floor is a playground for the couple’s children. Riley, a college student, takes advantage of the amenities when he comes home on breaks. A game room ensures hours of fun with friends, but also gently promotes serious study time by offering a built-in desk area. The boys’ rooms show their personalities, one paying homage to the Dallas Cowboys, a Tony Romo jersey presiding. Dylan’s room also has access to a secret lair within the turret. Although Dylan is a football fan, he also carries on a friendly rivalry with his brother. While the Curse of the Bambino has ended, the Red Sox

Richly stained coffered ceilings continue the old-world vibe throughout the distinctly masculine space. Massive built-ins feature some of Wayne’s most-treasured keepsakes. Bought at charity auctions, Kenny Chesney’s guitar and hat reserve a favored position. A coveted portrait of American Pharoah, 2015’s Breeder’s Cup Classic and American Triple Crown winner- the first ever to win all four races- reigns over all. Various casino paintings finish the home office, which also offers a private patio for additional seclusion. The couple’s master suite is an intimate retreat from the main areas of the home. A soothing palette of brown, cream, and white creates softness. A tray ceiling adds elegance, while glasswork allows plenty of light. A private entrance to the outdoor patio yields an opportunity to enjoy the outdoors incognito. The master bath is spacious, featuring a spa tub nestled between delicate tile work of differing patterns.

unique stone, hailing from Oklahoma, displaying veining resembling wood grain. The same stone was used throughout the home, including the patio, surrounding the front door, and on the turret. Pencil Pines were planted to gently sprout upward, providing a little more privacy for the pool area. Audrey put a personal touch on some of the landscaping as well, having planted hydrangeas around her yard. The native Southern flower reminds Audrey of her hometown. Though both Wayne and Audrey are transplanted Arkansans, both can find similarities between their past experiences and Hot Springs. The Spa City, famous for the National Park, thermal waters, and legendary gambling history parallels Wayne’s casino and gaming career. Both hail from hometowns that are summer tourist destinations, Wayne from Rhode Island and Audrey, Connecticut. While Hot Springs is teeming with activity and tourism during the summer, Audrey enjoys returning home for a time. “In the summers, I usually go visit family in New England,” shares Audrey. “I escape the heat and humidity.” This year though, more pool-side fun is in store for the family, as they settle in and enjoy their new home. A busy and cool summer for the Smith family is a safe bet. ∞

t all began when Derek Middleton, a Medical Resident, observed the lack of nutrition on Jessica Christiansen’s cafeteria tray. Jessica, pursuing a Master’s at UAMS, defending her grilled cheese and chips, commented on Derek’s burger, which led to a discussion of desserts and ice cream, and ultimately the first date. When Jessica brought him home for Memorial Day, she heard wise words. “Nana said the minute he came that he was the one,” she says. Jessica grew up in Hot Springs, a graduate of Lakeside, and the apple of her Nana and Grumps’ eye. Derek hails from Dardanelle, where his parents raised a loyal and caring son - the calm to Jessica’s wound up storm, she says. 2017 was a stormy season in Jessica’s life. Derek learned Jessica

suffered from Crohn’s Disease, and later the pair learned she had developed lymphoma. Given her medical condition, Jessica tried to let him off the hook, but he told her, “No. You’re my penguin.” By her side through chemo treatments that led to Jessica being cancer-free by November of 2017, Derek proposed in January 2018. Nana hit the ground running with wedding planning, while Jessica agreed to attend one bridal fair. By meeting at the bridal fair, Jessica worked with Randi Slick and Signature Events to plan the wedding events and take care of the reception. “Randi had a calming presence and I knew we needed her. She really ran the show and made everything go smoothly” Jessica knew she wanted a woodsy, whimsical theme, and also what venue would fit her dream- Anthony Chapel at Garvan Woodland Gardens. In March of 2018, flowers were flourishing; however, in March of 2019- as the wedding

date approached- deer had eaten the tulips lining the chapel walkway and it rained the entire wedding week. A silver lining in those rain clouds was the rehearsal dinner. Being a connoisseur of Mexican food, the couple chose Jose’s to host their dinner the night before the I do’s. Cheese dip reigned as the party’s excitement mounted. Jessica explains, “Mexican food is our favorite! We frequent local restaurants at least once a week.” “Nana was checking the weather forecast like a mad person,” recalls Jessica. “It rained the morning of our wedding, but the pictures turned out well without the bright sunshine.” A little pampering for the bridal party was in order before the nuptials, and Whiplash Beauty was on hand to provide the luxury. Adrianne Woolley did makeup for the bride, a junior bridesmaid, and for Nana. “She even talked Nana into getting lashes,” notes Jessica. On March 30, 2019, the bride was Hot Springs LIFE & HOME | JULY 2019 |

escorted by her beloved grandfather, Grumps, in a flowing ivory gown. A delicate lace overlay and straps were in keeping with a light, garden theme. As the most important people in the couple’s lives looked on, family friend Dick Antoine officiated the ceremony. Childhood friend and opera singer, Johnathan Rhodes, sang for the duo, and bridesmaid Meagan Biller performed a reading from The Art of Marriage. Flowers were plentiful inside the chapel. An incredible spray of rose variations and floral limbs, seeming to erupt from a fairy-like vase of stems and leaves, graced the altar. Jessica first saw the arrangement at a bridal fair and asked Kelly Efird, of Kelly Efird Floral Design to recreate it for her. “I have known Kelly my entire life, and I knew I wanted her to do my flowers,” says Jessica. “She pulled out all the stops! She is the most generous and creative lady.” Following the vow exchange, the wedding party and guests traveled to
the bloom-filled clubhouse at Forest Lakes. Jessica says the venue was a perfect choice that she had no trouble choosing. “Nana is friends with the owners of Forest Lakes Clubhouse, and I had been to garden club events with Nana and luncheons there. I have inherited a lot of grandparents so I wanted something one level, not too big, and I knew I wanted Debbie Talley’s food.” The Centre was transformed into a floral Heaven, blooms cascading like sweet waterfalls over the head table. Tall gold table vases thrust bouquets of hydrangeas, roses, and carnations high into the air. Sprays of pink roses and peonies erupted from the fireplace mantle as if growing out of the stone. Gold chairs and white linens on the tables set the stage for the dining experience. “The food was very important. I cannot eat certain things,” Jessica notes. The bride enlisted Debbie Talley’s Special Touch Catering to provide the temptations for the couple’s engagement

on't you love finding something really great when you step off the beaten path? Well next time you’re downtown, let yourself wander away from Central Avenue and onto Exchange Street. Keep your eyes peeled on the mountain side until you see the big red sign for Grateful Head Pizza Oven and Beer Garden. You’ll find a casual place to enjoy a meal, have a few drinks, listen to live music, all while enjoying a secluded location and relaxing vibe Sitting down with manager Christopher

& Beer Garden
Luker, we learned that the Spa City’s Grateful Head is the second in a lineage of Grateful Head venues. Founder Billy Carder was currently away opening two new locations in the Broken Bow, Oklahoma. Opened here in early 2018, this Grateful Head had been a major renovation project. The building had played many roles in historic Hot Springs. Chris shared, “The building was at one point a spine and foot clinic. Imagine having to climb up this hill and these stairs
to see the doctor!" The interior is two levels, with the downstairs featuring a "Gin Joint" as well as a performance stage. Everyone who comes to Grateful Head on a pleasant day enjoys the multi-level decks and stone patios outside. "We are also doing some expansion out by the patios," says Chris. "We're adding a 10 foot X 24 foot stage, so look for our schedule of live music on the deck." Other summer projects include extending the roof from the building to the beer garden and further enhancing the space, which features plenty of shade and greenery. Now for the yummy stuff! These mouth-watering pizzas are sprinkled with an herb mix -- parsley, rosemary, thyme -- and the crust brushed with melted garlic butter. Delicious pies meet the needs of a meat lover, like the Psychedelic Supremo with pepperoni, Canadian bacon, Italian sausage, beef, and veggies to complement the ensemble. Vegetarian options are on the menu, and look for new veggie pizzas set to debut this summer: a caprese version and a classic margherita. Grateful
Head offers gluten-free and vegetarian menu options and will soon begin growing fresh herbs up the terraced mountainside, where further up a trail connects to West Mountain. Chris has also sourced heirloom tomatoes for their yummy bruschetta, so summertime is the right time to head to Grateful Head Pizza & Beer Garden! Grateful Head's signature bruschetta features fresh basil, parmesan and roasted grape tomatoes drizzled with a balsamic reduction that takes five hours to make. The crew prepares it in-house every other day. The crustinis are crisp and thin, made of a light dough that's a precursor to sourdough. "Ambrosia supplies our bread," says Chris. "We love their products!" Check out the lineup of popular sandwiches, from the "Garcia Grinder" to the Woodstock. New menu items also include tiramisu and a fresh approach to their Ceasar salad. "We emulsify and make the Caesar dressing in-house daily," says Chris. Are you wondering about the Beer Cellar? Well, get ready for something great! For those who love an iced cold Bud Lite, that’s no problem. But you might just venture away from your regular choice when you see the
plethora of beers in the rotating selection! Go with an international flare or stay stateside. And of course, don’t pass up on the
local beers! "We support local providers here," notes Chris. From Superior Bathhouse Brew, to Bubba Brews, Flyway Ale and Lost

40, the collaborative energy continues. Chris believes in teamwork: "Especially in a small community like this, collaboration is essential." Also new on the menu is a variety of first class cocktails. "We've really stepped up the bartender game," says Chris, who used to bartend in upstate New York. "A 1/16 ounce difference can make all the difference, it makes a palatable change." There's the Mai-Tai Dye, a twist on a traditional mai tai that takes a little maraschino juice and drizzles down the side. The Liquid Mary Jane, with spiced rum, coconut rum, Midori, a splash of blue Curacao, and pineapple juice. "We do all natural liqueurs and all natural flavorings," says Chris. "Rock Town Distillery in Little Rock does a really good job. We carry their vodkas -- they have a watermelon vodka that smells like a summer day. All of our Bloody Marys start off with basil-infused vodka. We are also gin lovers here!" Don’t worry, you won’t be left out of the fun If you prefer non-alcoholic beverages. Try the Lemon Berry Acai soda or any of the craft sodas available. Something for everyone! So are you ready to step off the beaten path and find yourself mountainside, tucked away from the nearby hustle and bustle? With pizza and drink in hand, you’ll be listening to live music and enjoying the relaxed vibe during this patio season. Much to be grateful for :) Thanks Chris for the delicious tour of Grateful Head Pizza Oven & Beer Garden! ∞

A TOAST TO SUMMER! hampagne is the drink of celebration. From seersucker brunches to poolside soirees, to romantic sunset boat rides, summer offers ample opportunity to celebrate! Many people generically call any sparkling wine “champagne”, but actually, only sparkling wines produced in the Champagne region of France can be called true Champagne. If you don’t believe me, ask any Frenchman. There are several categories of sparkling wines, and the differences are in how they are produced, where they originate, the grapes used, and how sweet the grapes taste. Sparkling wines are often considered the most advanced style of wine in the world because they technically undergo two fermentation processes. One fermentation makes the alcohol, and a second one makes the bubbles. The lengthy process that gives sparkling wines their rich and complex flavors involves tipping and rolling the bottles during the initial fermentation and the eventual removal of the resulting sediment called the lees. Then, often after flash freezing, resealing the bottle for the second fermentation to produce the effervescence which results in the POP that announces a special occasion or just a bit of extra indulgence for any situation. My three favorite sparkling wines in descending order are Champagne, Cava, and prosecco. Champagne, the French one,

is produced by Méthode Champenoise which has been attributed to a monk named Dom Perignon and later refined by Madame Cliquot. These two names are still the most famed houses of French champagne. Cava is produced in Spain by the same method as French Champagne, but since it is outside the French region the method is instead called Méthode Traditional. It has a lighter style than French champagne as it does not ferment with the lees as long before the second fermentation. Prosecco is the sparkling wine most commonly found in a brunch Mimosa and is made in the Veneto region of Italy. It differs slightly from Champagne and Cava in that is it fermented in giant metal vats rather than its own bottle. This application is called the Charmot Process or Metodo Italiano. Even within these categories, there are four sweetness levels: Extra Brut, the driest one; Brut, probably the most popular; Extra Dry, dry, but actually sweeter than Brut; Demi-sec, usually paired with dessert as there is a noticeable taste of sugar. The level of sweetness is usually printed on the bottle label. When I don’t have a nice bottle of Veuve Cliquot on hand, probably my most frequent bubbly libation is the Champagne Cocktail. By adding these few simple ingredients, even an inexpensive bottle of sparkling wine can be transformed into a delicious and glamorous offering for any guest! ∞
TRADITIONAL CHAMPAGNE COCKTAIL • 1 sugar cube • Angostura bitters • Champagne • Lemon (or orange) twist
Soak the sugar cube in Angostura bitters and drop into a champagne flute. Top with champagne. Garnish with a lemon twist. It’s THAT easy! With so many variations and such an intense method of production, it’s no wonder champagne is thought of as such a luxury. But don’t wait to pop a cork, but rather make an ordinary day a celebration! After all, it’s always worth the extra effort to treat yourself well.

here’s no time like a hot summer picnic to let your patriotic spirit show. These all-American snacks featuring a classic favorite fruit – watermelon – are the perfect solution for nearly any summertime celebration. Watermelon is a patriotic picnic staple for countless reasons, not the least of which is that it’s a beloved treat that many people associate with memories from childhood. However, nostalgia isn’t the only reason adults are just as likely to gravitate toward watermelon at a summer event. Its sweet, cool and refreshing flavor also makes it a favorite for all ages. From a practical standpoint, watermelon is also quite portable, versatile and easy to serve, and with a composition of 92% water, it’s a simple way to sneak in some extra hydration on a hot day. Another benefit is its value; watermelon is one of the best values in the produce section among fruit, and just one watermelon can feed up to three dozen people. Serving watermelon at a party can be as simple as slicing wedges, or you can prepare a dish such as: n A fruit basket, with the rind serving as a colorful bowl to hold the watermelon and other fresh fruits. n A charcuterie board with a selection of fruit, cheese and protein for simple snacking. n Creamy parfaits, perfect for a summery brunch or alternative to more traditional desserts. n A creatively colorful and patriotic “cake” that makes for a tasty centerpiece on the dessert table. Find more ideas for incorporating watermelon into your summer festivities at watermelon.org. ∞
