astrology & all Week of 4/12/17 4/19/17 Highlights of the week: On Saturday, Venus, the planet which rules our attitudes about love and money, moves direct after a three week retrograde. Now we will be able to move forward with our plans and relationships should flow more smoothly. On Sunday, we celebrate Easter which continues this feeling of renewal. The Sun will enter the sign of Taurus on Wednesday, 4/19. Happy Birthday to all born under this sign. Spring is finally here. ARIES (3/20 - 4/20) Please watch your spending. If you start to save for that rainy day (or vacation) you will be happy. It’s time to put your creative brain to work. TAURUS (4/21 - 5/20) No matter how frustrated you get either at home or work, you must watch how you express yourself. Use your charm rather than harsh words to get what you want. GEMINI (5/21 - 6/20) Continue to find ways to enjoy yourself, whether through exercise or friendly get togethers. Even a short stroll, or a coffee date with a pal will do much to relieve your stress. CANCER (6/21 - 7/22) These holidays will encourage you to gather friends and family to your home. Relaxing with those closest to you will elevate your mood and create precious memories. LEO (7/22 - 8/23) Look for ways to bring in extra money. If you and your loved one, or business colleague, do not agree, it is time for a realistic conversation. VIRGO (8/23 - 9/22) Thinking of renovating your home or is it time to move? Now you might want to research redecorating or renovations or real estate sales. Even cleaning out your closets may help.

Joanne Wolff
LIBRA (9/23 - 10/22) Venus is giving you the green light to make plans with your partner. If single, it is a good time to start looking around as finding love becomes easier. SCORPIO (10/23 - 11/21) If your daily plans go haywire, practice some patience. Just because there is a twist in the road it does not mean you can’t have what you desire. SAGITTARIUS (11/22 - 12/21) With Saturn hanging out in your sign, you need to have some laughs with friends to get relief. Problems will not melt away but they can be handled later. CAPRICORN (12/22 - 1/19) Putting all your papers in order and using this time to tackle any clutter will clear the cobwebs from your mind. You will feel much better when you free up your space. AQUARIUS (1/20 - 2/19) Family gatherings and family roots may fascinate you. Looking into the history of your ancestors through the sharing of stories and old photos will make this holiday meaningful. PISCES (2/19- 3/20) Although extra busy at work, if you cooperate willingly you will be in line for that promotion. Be that happy worker bee! More money will also flow in as an additional benefit.

It’s Little & It’s Free The Rogers Memorial Library this week announced the opening of Southampton Village’s first “Little Free Library” at Agawam Park. This free book exchange program is a non-profit that began in 2009 in Wisconsin when a young man built a model of a one room schoolhouse as a tribute to his mother, a teacher and great lover of books. He filled it with books and put it on his front lawn. When word spread he was soon building more of his “little libraries” and giving them away to friends and before long a national movement was born. Today there are more than 50,000 Little Free Libraries in all 50 states and around the world. RML is thrilled to be a part of this wonderful organization. The library was purchased through the Suffolk Cooperative Library System and with cooperation from Southampton Village, is now installed near the playground in Agawam Park. Thanks to the generosity of the Friends of the Rogers Memorial Library, the Little Free Library will be regularly restocked by RML staff with books for children, teens, and adults but anyone who would like to is welcome to “borrow a book and leave a book” of their own.

Independent Dining Chicken Tostada
Ingredients (serves 4) 2 chicken breasts 8 corn tortillas 1/2 red onion (sliced thin) 1cup cheddar cheese 4 cups chicken stock 2 avocado 2 dried ancho chilis (seeded) 1 dried jalapeño (seeded) 2 tbsp tomato paste 1 can black beans (drained and rinsed) 1 clove of garlic 1 tbsp soy sauce 1 bunch cilantro (washed) 1/2 cup picked flat parsley (washed) 1/4 cucumber 1 cup Greek yogurt 2 limes (juiced) 2 cups chopped Bibb lettuce 1/4 cup sugar 1 bay leaf 2 tbsp white vinegar Water Ground cumin (to taste) 1 tsp cinnamon Salt and pepper (to taste) 1 fresh jalapeño (seeded)
Turn on oven to 300 degrees. Place 1 cup of chicken stock, dried and seeded chilis, soy sauce, tomato paste, garlic, 1 tbsp of cumin, 1 tsp cinnamon, salt and pepper in a microwave safe bowl, cover with plastic, and cook 1 1/2 minutes on high. Let sit covered for 5 minutes, then purée in the blender. Mix the purée with 3 cups of chicken stock, cook the chicken breasts in a 3-4" deep braising pan with a lid. Cook at 300 for three hours with the lid on. Meanwhile, bring the sugar, white
vinegar, 1 tbsp salt, and 1 cup water to a boil. Once at a boil, stir and make sure the sugar is dissolved, then add a handful of cilantro and the juice of 1/2 a lime and pour the hot liquid over the sliced red onion. Allow that mixture to cool in the fridge. While your pickled onions cool, place the cucumber, a hand full of cilantro, the parsley, 1/2 cup yogurt, juice of 1/2 a lime, 1/2 avocado, and 1/2 seeded fresh jalapeño in the blender and purée until smooth. Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the braising pan and put into a mixing bowl covered with plastic wrap. Now reduce the braising liquid by half and strain the reduced liquid through a sieve into the bowl with the braised chicken, saving 1/4 cup to mix with your black beans. Pull the tender chicken apart with a fork to incorporate with the sauce. Finally, in a food processor pulse half the can of beans with the 1/4 cup of braising liquid. Add the other half of the can to the mixture after pulsing. To assemble your tostada, turn the oven up to 350, place the corn tortillas on a sheet tray and toast each side 3 minutes. Once the tortillas are toasted, add a large spoonful of the bean purée on each and spread evenly to the edge of the tortilla. Follow that with by a generous spoonful of the pulled chicken and a sprinkling of cheddar cheese. The tostadas will go back in the oven for 3 minutes to melt the cheese. When they come out, finish with your shredded lettuce, sliced avocado, pickled onion, yogurt, and your cucumber cilantro dressing. Enjoy!

Almond in Bridgehampton has announced new chef de cuisine, Jeremy Blutstein. Formerly of East By Northeast in Montauk, Blutstein has joined Almond where he will continue the strong commitment of using local products and local produce in order to support the local community alongside Executive Chef Jason Weiner. A graduate of New York Restaurant School, Blutstein has spent time perfecting his skills at multiple noteworthy restaurants. For several years, he split time between Montauk and New York City where he spent time working at Eataly and Margaux and Tremont, where he was nominated for a James Beard Award. After two years at the Crow’s Nest in Montauk, he went on to join East by Northeast as executive chef. “Joining the team at Almond is an organic transition for me. Jason and I have very similar beliefs in utilizing the bounty that our super tight community produces. Cooking seasonally on the East End is made fun by the personal connections we make with the farmers, fisherman, baymen, and local artisans. Expect great things from an already dope kitchen to continue with an enormous amount of fun. The culinary dream team has been assembled . . . Bring the ruckus . . . Food Is Bond,” said Blutstein. “This is a guy who shares our commitment to localism, old school technique, and ethnic/street food/peasant cuisine. He’s also a friend. Super psyched to have him on our crew. Our restaurant just got a hell of a lot better,” said Weiner. J.M.
