Conviction Opens At Bay Street

Sarah Paulson

Elizabeth Reaser

Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor presents the World Premiere of Conviction, the first in the theatre’s 2014 Mainstage Season, running Tuesday through June 15. Written by

by Carey Crim, Conviction is directed

by Scott Schwartz, Bay Street’s new Artistic Director. Bay Street Theatre, Rubicon Theatre in California, Dead Posh Productions, London and Canada’s Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre co-produce.

Conviction tells the stor y of

the family of Tom Hodges, a charismatic, confident and caring teacher that students adore and parents admire. The smart, wisecracking colleague with all the answers. The neighbor who takes care of the neighborhood. The perfect husband and father.

But when a student accuses Tom of crossing a line, everything changes. This delicately balanced, beautifully nuanced new family drama digs deep beneath the

Garret Dillahunt surface of a happy suburban existence to explore the damage done when seeds of mistrust are planted. It asks the question -How can we live with conviction when some questions cannot be answered?

The cast includes Garret Dillahunt (“Raising Hope,” 12 Years a Slave) as Tom, Sarah Paulson (“American Horror Story,” 12 Years a Slave) as his wife Leigh, Elizabeth Reaser (“Twilight”) as their friend Jayne;

Brian Hutchison (Man and Boy, Looped) as her husband Bruce; and Daniel Burns (Twelfth Night, Shipwrecked!) as Tom and Leigh’s son Nicholas.

Single tickets are on sale and three-play subscriptions for the 2014 Mainstage Season, including Conviction, can be purchased online now at www.baystreet.org or by calling the Box Office at 631-7259500.

Lana Del Rey

By Jessica Mackin Lana Del Rey released her eagerly awaited new track “West Coast” in April, the first from her forthcoming album Ultraviolence.

Written by Lana and Rick Nowels, “West Coast” was recorded and produced by Dan Auerbach from The Black Keys.

“The record is finished and it’s beautiful - it’s so wrong and exquisite. It is absolutely gorgeous darker than the first,” stated Del Rey. Del Rey kicked off her sold-out North American tour in April, playing venues across the country.

She will also perform at festivals around the world, including Rock En Seine, Vida, Bravella, Bergenfest, and Glastonbury.

Del Rey captivated the world with her single “Video Games.” The darkly glamorous album Born To Die, released in 2012, went platinum in the US and she has sold over 6 million albums and 12 million singles globally. “Young and Beautiful” from the soundtrack of The Great Gatsby and her massive worldwide hit “Summertime Sadness” propelled her into stardom.

Del Rey was born Lizzy Grant in the rustic environs of Upstate New York in Lake Placid. “It has an epic, nostalgic feel. It’s in the middle of a National Park,” she said of her home town. Growing up she sang in the church choir. Her formative soundtrack included the sounds of Nirvana, The Beach Boys, Daniel Johnston and Bruce Springsteen.

Del Rey made her performance debut when she was 19 at an open mic night in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

Her mesmerizing, voice made an impression that night. “Somebody ran out after me and said ‘You should come to a night I’m doing next week and play some songs for me.’ I was afraid of everything. If they had laughed at me that night I would have never come back on stage. Ever,” she revealed.

That night, Lana Del Rey was born. “It’s nice to be able to try and build the life you want for yourself,” said Del Rey.

A new issue of Hampton Daze Magazine is on the stands this week.

Here is our cover story with Emmy Rossum (at right). To view the full issue visit www.hamptondaze.com.

Joseph Ginsberg: Art & Cocktail Evening

Independent/Alfonsina Romero

A dynamic grouping of oil on canvas, watercolor on paper and other mixed-media paintings composed an art show at the Joe Ginsberg Design Studio, featuring the private collection of New York-based artist Joe Ginsberg on May 9. Curated by Laura Weber and Nina van Alphen.

Emmy Rossum New York City native Emmy Rossum is the star of Showtime’s dark comedy series “Shameless” with William H. Macy. But when Rossum is not playing the shocking role of the lovable-yet-troubled Fiona Gallagher she is a studied songstess. At age seven, Rossum was a member of the Metropoliton Opera Children’s Chorus. Last year she released Sentimental Journey, a collection of covers of American standards that span the ’20s to the ’60s.

“I grew up surrounded by classical music singing in the C h i l d r e n ’s C h o r u s a t T h e Metropolitan Opera and when I would come home, the house was filled with the voices of Frank Sinatra, Sam Cooke, and Judy Garland,” Rossum said. “For as long as I can remember, my mother would sing ‘Apple Blossom Time’ to me as a bedtime lullaby. Classics, jazz, and standards really infused my childhood and so it felt quite natural to finally make this record.”

The album’s highlights include its title track, which was a No. 1 hit for Les Brown and Doris Day in 1945. “These Foolish Things,” a ’30s standard that has been recorded by everyone from Nat King Cole and Bing Crosby to Rod Stewart and Michael Bublé, is a great representation done by Rossum. “Summer Wind,” which was popularized by Frank Sinatra in 1966, also graces the album.

“Whenever I have an artistic compulsion, I follow it,” she said.

“For a while I had been feeling a strong desire to make music again and a strong desire to make this kind of music - songs written and recorded before music became synthesized and computerized-sounding, when it

was just simple, beautiful songs and someone standing up and singing them. I know there are generations that are familiar with this music and the original versions, but there’s also a whole generation that isn’t and I really want to share these songs with that younger generation as well.”

No stranger to the Hamptons, Rossum was included in the Breakthrough Performers at the Hamptons International Film Festival in 2009 alongside Emma Stone and Rooney Mara. She was in good company with past participants including Adam Driver, Alexander Skarsgard, Jessica Chastain, Emily Blunt, and Blake Lively. Even with her busy acting career, making Sentimental Journey was a project close to Rossum’s heart.

“I wanted the record to sound authentically of the era, which is why I had all the musicians play live together in one room while I sang on a vintage mic in the vocal booth,” Rossum described.

“Each song needed to either lyrically or emotionally reflect the corresponding month,” Rossum explained. “Some songs were obvious fits, like ‘Summer Wind’ for June, ‘Apple Blossom Time’ for May, ‘Autumn Leaves’ for October, and ‘Pretty Paper’ for December. Other songs were less literal fits. I chose ‘Nobody Knows You (When You’re Down and Out)’ for September because, to me, the plaintive melody and lyric emotionally reflect the cold weather creeping in and the sense of melancholy we can get in the fall months.”

Lucky for us September is a whole summer away!

Staging For Sale: A Lifelong Passion THE INDEPENDENT • Traveler Watchman

By Kitty Merrill

occupied home is “editing,” she revealed. Most owner-occupied houses need some “depersonalizing without being sterilized.” Tchotchkes, memorabilia and family photographs have to be pruned to remove clutter and offer “more of a Zen feeling.”

In the Hamptons, “We’re also selling a lifestyle,” Dioguardi pointed out. The casual, beachy feel exemplifies a simpler life without “all that stuff we have,” and an effect that’s “beautiful and neutral.”

By contrast, when it comes to vacant, new construction, Dioguardi draws from an array of resources to furnish and decorate a house. She offers “visual clues” related to how the potential homeowner would live in the house, “so they can feel engaged with the space.”

Often, she said, buyers elect

Independent/Mary Thames Louis Real Estate Photography

Her mother was a Hamptons real estate broker. And when Allegra Dioguardi was a little girl, her mom would take her along when she “fluffed” listings for show. So it’s no surprise staging for sale has been a lifelong passion for the local business owner.

But they didn’t call it staging back when Dioguardi started out. When she received her degree in Interior Design from Parsons School of Design, her very first job entailed merchandising model homes for sale. For 25 years, she travelled all over the country working for top national builders like Toll Bros. and Hovnanian, and one of the country’s largest, most prestigious model home firms, Builders Design in Maryland, honing her staging (aka merchandising) expertise along the way.

In fact, she recently sold her own home “to the first person who looked, for the full price,” she reported.

Dioguardi started her own business, Styled and Sold, in 2006 and returned to the Hamptons in 2008. Operating from a base in Westhampton Beach, she works with home sellers, investors, realtors, builders, and “anyone interested in enhancing their home or property,” staging owner-occupied homes as well as new construction and vacant homes.

Her philosophy is simple – and romantic. “I believe what sells homes is ‘love at first sight.’” Potential buyers need to be able to visualize themselves living in an abode -- “It’s all about someone walking in and saying ‘I could live here,’” the designer asserted.

Dioguardi works to create a space that looks like a bed and breakfast or “high end spa.”

Key to merchandising an owner-

to purchase staging merchandise.

Sometimes it’s conveyed as an incentive and sometimes, Dioguardi hosts professionally-run tag or estate sales.

With the onset of the Internet age, staging has become invaluable, Dioguardi believes, because 90 percent of buyers view the home they’re going to purchase online. Listing photos are key and Dioguardi advocates for the use of a good, professional real estate photographer. “You have less than 10 seconds to make a great first impression when potential buyers are viewing your property online or in person,” she said.

While merchandising homes for sale is Dioguardi’s specialty, Styled and Sold

also offers classic design services and interior re-design, working with items an owner already owns.

Not content to keep her knowledge to herself, Dioguardi also hosts webinars and provides home staging training and mentoring to aspiring and seasoned home stagers. An intriguing factoid found on her Style and Stage website?

CNN and careerbuilder.com both named home staging “The #1 job poised for growth in the coming years.”

Dioguardi describes her company as “small, personal, affordable and professional.” Speak with her about home staging for just minutes, and it’s clear she can add another adjective – passionate.

Eastland Nursery And C-8

May 21, 2014

By Rick Murphy

Mike DeRosa takes things in stride.

Twenty-two years running Eastland Nursery and Farms will do that to a guy.

His Water Mill farm and retail outlet has seen it all, from hurricanes to superstorms, invasive deer, and late season frost.

You learn to cope, he said. “What can you do? You can’t fight Mother Nature.”

The key is preparation: when deer are a problem, employees bring in as much stock as they can and then lay block after block of the same plant in rows. “They eat some of it,” DeRosa acknowledged. “We never used to have deer, but we do now.”

Home gardeners, more and more, opt for deer resistant plants, so Eastland has increased its variety and stock over the years. That’s a key component of the farm’s success – give the people what they want.

The weather vane selection, for example, is enormous. “We’ve been doing it for years. We sell a ton of them.

We ship them all over the country,” DeRosa said.

In addition to offering every imaginable kind of planting, Eastland’s

THE INDEPENDENT • Traveler Watchman

three-acre site is dotted with urns, benches, Buddhas, and whimsical lawn ornaments. There are scores of garden accessories, many made of granite.

“They are great accent pieces,” De Rosa noted, nodding at one long granite bench that must weigh a ton. “You move it once and where you leave it is where it stays,” he said with a laugh.

When a severe storm is coming “we lay the big stuff down” to minimize damage. No mater how you slice it, though, dealing with a very fickle Mother Nature is a daunting task. “The labor is extensive,” DeRosa admitted.

‘Tis the season at Eastland.

Beginning in early May the parade of shoppers intensifies as the summer progresses. “Mother's Day through June is crazy,” DeRosa said.

Eastland used to grow most of its own stock, but brings in new shipments on a daily basis nowadays. People and habits change. In the old days gardeners tended to plant their gardens and nurture them. “Nowadays people don’t want to wait for things to mature, they want it now.”

That pretty much sums up the Hamptons.

Saltwater Pools Making A Splash

By Emily Toy

On a scorching hot summer day, there really is nothing quite like cooling off in a nice pool of . . . bromoform? No? How about tribomomethane?

These are some of the chemicals touching your elegant epidermis when you’re swimming in a chlorine-filled pool. And although they are technically safe, there are other alternatives.

A trend taking the pool industry by storm, including here on the East End, is the use of salt water to maintain one’s own personal oasis. Nearly 80 percent of all new pools built today are using saltwater generators to sanitize the water. Along with the creation of hybrid pool pumps, saltwater sanitation is one of the biggest breakthroughs in recent pool industry history.

Dozens of pool companies stretching from Montauk to Manorville, as well as on the North Fork, are working with saltwater generators to sanitize pool water, making it less harsh to eyes and skin.

According to Patrick’s Pools (631903-7665), one of Long Island’s leaders in saltwater pool systems based out of East Quogue, “Pool water is salinated to 3200 parts per million, which is about a tenth of the salt level that exists in the

ocean. 3200 ppm is on the border of human taste limits. A small generator that is mounted at your pool equipment uses the salt in your pool water to produce ‘natural’ chlorine, which has no cyanauric acid like the chlorine tablets that we’ve all been used to.”

The end result is what many believe to be healthier water that has zero chlorine smell, taste, or irritation to the skin or eyes.

Operating in both Southampton and East Hampton towns, owner Ed Laureano of Pooltastic Pool Works (631-287-3500) in Hampton Bays notes installing a saltwater generator system produces a current of electricity to turn what’s essentially table salt into a purer form of chlorine.

Research shows the cost to set up a saltwater pool is between $600 and $5000, depending on the pool’s size. Generally, less time is used for maintaining a saltwater pool. Instead of adding chlorine tablets, salt will be added when needed, ultimately producing its own, natural chlorine. In a typical summer, most pool companies estimate pool owners would spend half as much for the season on a saltwater system than they would keeping up with

a chlorinated pool.

“Salt is relatively cheap,” said David Miller, owner of Miller Pools (631329-3366) in East Hampton. A few of Miller’s clients have saltwater pools and he says, “It does work. In my opinion, I think it’s better for the homeowner who handles his own pool.”

Channeling the complete ocean experience, there are newer trends within the aesthetics of saltwater pools that are adding more sea-like qualities to personal basins.

Sea Crystal Pools in Islandia (631234-7023) is a pool company that’s licensed to build and renovate pools in both East Hampton and Southampton towns.

According to co-owner Jim Vitelli, infinity pools are a trend seen frequently with saltwater pools. Beach entry-style

pools, when there are no steps but instead a slight decline when entering the pool, is another popular look.

Including sundecks, or beach landings, where there’s a long run of area where the water level is only up to six inches so swimmers can just wet themselves, is another feature gaining momentum.

As far as lighting is concerned, LED lights are a popular and more ecofriendly way to illuminate your lagoon.

Here are some more local pool companies ready to make all your saltwater dreams come true: • Tortorella Pools, Southampton (631-283-7373).

• Casual Water Pool and Spa Professionals, Bridgehampton (631537-5700).

Horoscope

by Kate Plumb

Week of May 21-27 Aries (March 21 - April 20) Having passed through the Full Moon last week, you might want to take a breather at this, the last quarter Moon phase today. It is a time to restructure old skills, not develop new ones. Your ruler, Mars, has now begun to slowly move forward. The tension with partners and inertia with any forward progress in disputes will pass.

Taurus (April 20 - May 21) If your ruler Venus got you both excited and depressed recently, then you are feeling the synchronicity of planetary movement with life events. The depression may come from feeling how far you still have to go to reach your comfort zone. Remember, though, the journey is the thing. It is all a process.

Gemini (May 21- June 21) You ought to be feeling empowered now that the Sun is in Gemini (as of last night). Your birthday month rings in a new year, a new revolution of the Sun, as it apparently returns to the place it was when you were born. If life is going to change significantly, it will be around this time that it does. Your ruler Mercury is strong and connected with the planet of love this week. Ideas of marriage?

Cancer (June 21 - July 20) Whatever long term structural change you need to make, do it now.

This could involve a change of residence, taking on a new business partner, stabilizing a situation with a child, or focusing on a long-postponed creative project that lies just beneath the surface. Enjoy the end of Jupiter’s every 12-year pass through your sign, when we expand or go broke.

Leo (July 20 – Aug. 20) You might be feeling rather social now. You want to get out in the world more, see friends, go to meetings, or join a new club. You might even get a raise in your job, as you get recognized for your hard efforts. Something inside has shifted though at this third quarter Moon phase. You can see the advantages rather than just the drawbacks.

Virgo (August 20 - Sept. 21) This is the month of your maximum sense of optimism and “I can do this.”

You are at the peak of the mountaintop, which you climb once a year, and have a good view. Your ruler Mercury is strong, so using your best analytical and organizing skills is timely this week. You excel at discerning what is most important. Beware the petty stuff.

Libra (Sept. 21 – Oct. 20) As Mars has now moved forward in your sign, you can begin to come out of the “retreat “ or “stall” mode. The canoe, having passed through rapids, now reaches calmer waters. You like peace and harmony in relationships. If the ride has been bumpy of late, rest assured that the lessons learned along the way will now be integrated, i.e. the balance between when to steer and when to let the river take you.

Scorpio (Oct 20-Nov 20) What can I say?

It has been so difficult, especially since March 1st. This week brings you assistance from a “mothering” friend, be it male or female, someone who cooks a meal for you.

You are being protected. You are learning to trust your inner strength to meet the challenges that you have had to encounter. The power that comes from surrendering, instead of trying to manipulate or control, might also be noticed and will lead to greater intimacy.

Sagittarius (Nov. 21 – Dec. 21) Your ruler Jupiter is trine, that is favorably looking upon, planet Saturn for the last of three times this year.(The first two were mid July and mid Dec 2013). This is a very stabilizing and grounding influence on you. What began

Saturday, live music with Frank Latorre and the Honey Bees from 7 to 11 PM. Daily happy hour with $3 burgers. Call 631-728-9511.

Capricorn (Dec. 21 - Jan 20) Last quarter Moon phases are times when new perspectives arise.

We take action but not in the way of moving events, rather as in the psychic shifts that occur inside our own heads. Business should be flourishing for you as you have gathered the right people around you. Expect things to stabilize and your faith in the future to expand this week.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 20) The week begins with the Moon in your sign -- always a good time of the month -- so this last quarter will be memorable.

You must face some truth, even if it is only inside your head. A plan to extricate yourself will unfold in time.

The important thing is for you to recognize that a shift has to be made.

Pisces (Feb. 20 – March 21) The Moon enters your sign early this morning, so the desire to sleep late or escape to the movies will be strong. You are in flow with the biggest aspect of the week, which is between two planets in the other two water signs. Water signs want emotional security. Feelings need to flow like water and reach even into the crevices of rocks. Find your stability this week (that you have been working on since last summer), your rock that you can bump against and feel safe.

The

Reel Deal

today’s birthday

by Miles X. Logan

Laurence Tureaud, 1952

No one will blame you if you don’t recognize the name. The youngest of 11 siblings, he was a bodyguard for Diana Ross before becoming an actor.

“Mr. T” burst on the scene in the television series “The A-Team” and was immortalized in Rocky III. You don’t have to pity this fool.

Yes, he grew up in a tough housing project in Chicago. He attended Dunbar Vocational High School and blossomed, playing several sports, studying martial acts, and wrestling – he was city champ two years in a row.

Young Laurence went off to Prairie View AM University on a football scholarship but was expelled. He joined the Army, earned a promotion to squad leader, and after his discharge tried to play professional football, but was cut by the Green

Bay Packers.

He took a job as a bouncer and began calling himself Mr. T. He was good at what he did -- very good -and parlayed his talent into a job as a bodyguard, working for the likes of Ross, Ali, and Michael Jackson. The logical progression was to acting, and he found work immediately.

In 1985 the world of professional wrestling beckoned, and Mr. T quickly became one of the biggest attractions.

Mr. T. still patterns his hairstyle and wardrobe after a Mandika Warrior, but he sold off his gold jewelry, a decision he made after becoming a Born Again Christian.

He lives in a gated estate in a Chicago suburb, not far from the housing project where he was raised, and still works regularly. He is the voice of Earl in Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs.

Maleficent (PG-13) Angeline Jolie lights up the screen in this fantasy about Disney’s most iconic villain.

Ellie Fanning is an able co-star playing Princess Aurora, and Imelda Staunton sparkles, as does Miranda Richardson. It is visually stunning and Jolie makes the sometimesawkward screenplay work.

Blended (PG-13) It just keeps happening. Adam Sandler keeps making awful movies and the studios keep hiring him. Despite not having a hit this millennium, Sandler teams with Drew Barrymore in this unfunny

Her Spike Jonze’s film about a man who falls in love with his computer was weird in theaters and it plays the same way in your living room. And talking about weird, they don’t come any weirder than Joaquin Phoenix. An all-star cast including Amy Adams, Olivia Wilde, and Scarlett Johansson is wasted. In fact, it’s weird any of them agreed to appear in this film.

Now Playing X-Men: Days Of Future Past (PG13) Ok, follow along: the cast from the original X-Men trilogy teams up with their younger selves from X-Men First Class to fight an epic battle and save the world. That’s a lot of superheroes for one screen. Hugh Jackman et al star.

Million Dollar Arm (PG) Disney conceived this film, from a semi-true story, as a star vehicle for Jon Hamm (“Mad Men”), who plays a sports agent looking for the next big thing.

The quest brings him to Mumbai, looking for cricket players who can be converted to major league pitchers. You can’t make this stuff up. Alan Arkin, playing his usual grumpy self, is perfect as a crusty major league scout. The film has its moments, but in typical Disney fashion, it chooses sweetness over substance.

The 1770 House

47 Montauk Highway, East Hampton, NY (631) 604-5585

Featuring all your favorite dishes & items as our sister restaurant

Open 7 Days for Dinner

By Jessica Mackin Under the historic roof of the 1770 House in East Hampton Village guests enjoy Chef Michael Rozzi's refined contemporary American cooking upstairs or his more casual traditional pub fair in the downstairs tavern. Each has its own distinctive atmosphere with the same outstanding quality and service, making 1770 one of the best dining locations in the Hamptons.

Last week we visited the main dining room for dinner.

To start we were sent a dish of Hog's Neck Bay Oysters (North Fork) on the half shell with cucumber shallot and black pepper mignonette for the table to share.

For appetizers we ordered the seared Hudson Valley foie gras with red wine gastrique, strawberry rhubarb compote on a house baked brioche and it was a definite hit. The spring sweet pea soup with olive oil and crisp bacon was also perfect.

The 18 month parma prosciutto and buffalo mozzarella with fresh turkey figs and aged balsamic was

delicious and enjoyed by our whole table.

For an entree the seared Scottish salmon with sweet baby fennel, smoked pimento, guanciale, sherry and shallots was fantastic.

The roasted Berkshire pork tenderloin with rosemary honey scented root vegetables and black truffle risotto was cooked to perfection. The hand cut fettucini with fresh ricotta cheese, wild ramp and asparagus pesto, hazelnuts and fava beans was brilliantly executed.

For dessert we would highly recommend the warm chocolate bread pudding or the lemon curd tart with strawberry rhubarb.

1770 House also has an outdoor dining area for those who want to dine under the stars this summer while enjoying the brilliant creations from Chef Rozzi's kitchen.

Pulled Chicken Burrito With Cilantro & Lime Crème Ingredients (serves 4) 4 chicken thighs 2 dried ancho chiles (seeds removed) 2 dried chipotle peppers (seeds removed) 2 quarts of chicken stock 4 whole wheat tortilla ½ c chopped cilantro ¼ c fresh squeezed lime juice 2 avocado 1 head of iceberg lettuce (sliced thin) 3 tbsp tomato paste 1 tbsp siracha or favorite hot sauce ¼ c crème fraich 2 tbsp mayonnaise 2 tbsp sour cream 1 tbsp olive oil 1 onion (rough chopped) 2 carrots (peeled and chopped) 4 stalks of celery (chopped) 2 cloves of garlic 1 bay leaf

2 tbsp ground cumin 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1 tsp Cheyenne pepper 2 tbsp paprika

Method Begin seasoning the chicken thigh with salt and pepper. Sear them skin down in a medium sized pot over medium high heat.

When the fat begins to render after about a minute on a high sear, turn the heat down to medium and allow the fat to render and the skin to crisp over a medium heat for about 10 minutes.

When the skin is crisp, remove the chicken thighs from the pot.

Sauté the chopped onions, celery, garlic and carrots in the chicken fat.

When the vegetables begin to soften deglaze the pan with 1 ½ quarts of the chicken stock. Add the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste,

bay leaf, and spices. Bring to a boil and place the chicken thighs flesh down in the liquid.

Reduce to a simmer. Cover and place in a 300 degree oven for three hours. After three hours remove the thighs and allow them to cool enough to be handled.

While the chicken is cooling, reduce the cooking liquid by half the blend until smooth. Place the dried chilles in the hot liquid and allow them to steep for 20 minutes then re blend the entire mixture.

Once the chicken has cooled,

pull the meat off the bone and mix it back into the sauce. Scoop this mixture into the center of a soft tortille, wrap it up, and place it fold side down on a baking sheet. Bake in the oven for five minutes at 350 degrees.

While the tortilla is cooking slice the avocado and mix the sour cream, crème fraich, mayonnaise, lime juice, olive oil and cilantro with a little bit of salt.

When the tortilla is baked, cut it in two and serve with the lettuce, creme, and avocado.
