As I sit here putting the final touches on the 8th issue of PULSE I find I am feeling quite overwhelmed and emotional.

I had a tough time putting a single word to the feelings I am experiencing this morning but overwhelmed seemed the best fit. After coming off of a long weekend which included our wedding anniversary, our Golden Retriever’s birthday, a Bar-bque with “new Clinton friends,” Memorial Day celebrations and a few visits with clients, I simply feel like the most blessed woman on God’s green earth, and that can be overwhelming!

I am so very thankful for the response to PULSE and for that I say thank you to all of you, our clients and our readers!

Saturday morning Matt and I stopped at the Oneida County Public Market at the train station in Utica to pick up Oliver’s birthday present; New York Cheddar & Bacon JAKES BAKES (his favorite!) and spent a few minutes with ML Nolan at her booth there. What a gorgeous weekend it was! While we were there visiting with her, a few of her faithful customers along with a few new to her customers came along. Matt had a stack of PULSE ready to leave with ML under his arm and a nice couple came by and noticed PULSE. It was such a joy hearing them both say how much they enjoy reading it every month! I walked away with a smile from ear to ear and I was filled once again with an overwhelming excitement and thankfulness that God has

Tips for newcomers to the game of golf Few hobbies can be as enjoyable one moment and as frustrating the next as golf.

Golfers know a great putt can be quickly followed by a bad tee shot, and maintaining their composure through the highs and lows of the game is a key to success on the links.

Maintaining that composure isn’t always easy, even for the professionals. It’s even more difficult for beginners, who quickly learn the game of golf involves more than just spending sunny weekend afternoons on pristine golf courses. In fact, golf can be quite demanding, and beginners would be wise to heed a few tips before hitting the course. * Don’t commit to an expensive set of clubs right off the bat. Golf clubs can be very expensive, so beginners should buy an affordable secondhand set of clubs so they can get the hang of what they like before spending a

lot of money. Visit a pro shop and explain that you are just a beginner. The shop will likely make some valuable suggestions and might even let you try out a pair of clubs. In addition, many driving ranges allow customers to rent clubs, and this can be a great and inexpensive way to find the right clubs for you. * Take lessons. Even the very best at self-teaching might find it extremely difficult to become a self-taught golfer. When first trying your hand at golf, take some lessons and don’t expect to be playing 18 holes any time soon. Before hitting the course, where you might be discouraged and you might frustrate those golfing behind you, learn the fundamentals by taking a few lessons at the driving range. Learn from a professional, who won’t offer you any hidden secrets to golfing glory (there aren’t any) but will offer sound advice on the game’s fundamentals. * Take the game home

with you. Beginners can even take advantage of golf ’s vast popularity by taking the game home with them. This doesn’t mean building a putting green in your backyard. Rather, purchase some instructional DVDs to learn the game during your down time throughout the week.

Many golfers don’t have time to hit the links during the week, but they do have time to watch some DVDs when they get home from work. Such instructional DVDs can help you master your grip and stance, which you can then take with you to the course over the weekend. * Have fun. Golf is a fun game; it just takes time to hone your skills. But even if you aren’t ready for the professional tour after your first few rounds, you can still have fun. Don’t let some beginner’s frustration, which every golfer experiences, ruin the fun of the game. Take note of your surroundings when you hit the links, and appreciate the time you’re spending with your group. If the game becomes more a source of frustration than fun, then take a break and put in some more work away from the course, be it at the driving range or studying at home.

How to properly store fishing equipment Spending a day on the water can equate to paradise for the millions of people who enjoy recreational fishing.

While fishing is a source of income for countless people, many others view fishing as a recreational retreat.

The American Sportfishing Association reports that there were roughly 40 million Americans who enjoyed angling. The National Sporting Goods Association ranks fishing sixth out of 42 recreation activities in terms of its popularity, preceded only by walking, swimming, exercising, camping and bowling.

The mass number of fishing hobbyists spend millions of dollars on equipment and gear for their fishing excursions each year. With so much money being spent, it is essential to properly care for gear and store it well. Here’s how to get started.

Safety There are many components of fishing gear that can be dangerous in the wrong hands. From fileting knives to bait hooks, there is the potential for injury should young children get into the fishing equipment you have. Also, sinkers made out of lead can be toxic should children put these items in their mouths.

Emphasize safety when storing your equipment. If you are keeping rods and reels on your boat, be sure they’re in a locked cargo area so they’re not easily accessible. If tackle and other gear is kept at home, be sure to have a locked cabinet where

it can be kept, or place it high enough where it is out of reach.

Make sure sharp lures and hooks are kept together in a tackle box and placed out

of the way. Not only will this keep people safe, but it also helps to keep gear organized.

Cleaning In order to work properly, gear should be cleaned and inspected prior to storage.

Cleaning will also prolong the life span of fishing equipment.

Fishing rods should be wiped down after each fishing trip to prevent harmful contaminants and corrosives from eating away at the clear coat on the rod and any metal components. Wiping down also reduces the chance of salt water corrosion.

In terms of cleaning lures and tackle, start out by soaking them in distilled water.

If there is a smell or debris stuck on it, some people have used a spray like WD40 with success. If using a soap-based cleanser on soft rubber lures, choose one that is gentle, like baby soaps or even gentle laundry detergent. Just be sure to rinse well.

Rod storage It is important to store fishing rods horizontally to prevent warping or bending. If

using a rack specially designed for fishing rods, it will keep rods straight despite them being stored vertically. Try to keep rods out of a humid room, which can further exacerbate warping and bending of the equipment. Also, never stow a rod in its tube. This can trap humidity and cause corrosion of the guide rings.

Reels should be rinsed after use and disassembled to clean the gears inside. Water can become trapped in small crevices and may rust out ball bearings. Never soak reels in water and try to keep them out of the water on fishing trips. Fly fishing backing may be left on the reel, provided it is completely desalinated and dry. Application of lubricant between uses of a reel can improve performance.

Fishing is a popular recreational activity that is enjoyed thanks to myriad gear. Properly storing this equipment can prolong its life span and keep things safe and organized.

How to fit a life jacket correctly Many people assume that simply wearing a life jacket or another personal flotation device is enough to provide adequate safety while enjoying activities on the water.

But just as important as wearing the PFD is that it fit properly.

Selecting a life jacket is not a onesize-fits-all scenario. Nor are all life jackets suitable for all types of water sports and other marine activities. The amount of buoyancy the jacket provides is relative to the activity and the size of the person wearing the jacket. Furthermore, it is

unwise to think that children can simply wear an adult life jacket in a pinch.

Life jackets that are too

small or too large can come off or ride up in the water.

A jacket that rides up can end up rising over the mouth and nose, making breathing difficult. The proper fit of a life jacket is one where the jacket is snug, but not suffocating.

All of the zippers, ties, straps, snaps, and other connection points should be correctly secured.

The life jacket shouldn’t obstruct the mouth. The person should also be able to swim easily on the back or side without restriction of the arms.

Typically, children 12 years and younger are expected to wear a life jacket at all times when in a boat or around the water. This means kids will spend significant time wearing the life jacket, so it should be comfortable and fit properly.

Children’s life jackets are typically designed around three sizes. An infant device is for children under 30 pounds.

A small child is appropriate for children 30 to 50 pounds.

A youth size is right for children 50 to 90 pounds. Larger children may graduate to a small adult’s size. Life jackets

for young children may have a flotation collar that helps to keep the head upright, as a child’s head tends to be his or her heaviest part of the body.

In addition, there will likely be a strap that secures between the legs to prevent vest from riding up.

All life jackets should be replaced when they start to fade to the color of the inside label. This might be indicating that their safety protection may have started to deteriorate.

In addition to properly fitting a life jacket, it is important to practice being in one in the water. While life jackets may keep adults and children afloat, they may not keep a struggling person face up.

Therefore, it is adviseable to remain calm in the water while wearing the PFD. Life jackets can save lives when properly fitted and worn correctly.

Wakeboarding is a growing sport Water enthusiasts take to rivers, lakes and oceans for scores of different marine activities. The popularity of water sports has exploded, including a growing interest in wakeboarding.

An offshoot of traditional boat-propelled wakeboarding is cable wakeboarding. This is where the wakeboarder is attached to a permanent, overhead ski lift-type cable that stretches across a body of water and connects to fixed towers. The cable pulls the wakeboarder to ramps where he or she can execute tricks.

Wakeboarding is an activity where a person is pulled behind a motorboat at about 20 to 24 miles per hour.

When asked to list renowned classical composers, Mozart or Beethoven may come to mind. Many people may not think to mention Edward Elgar. But there’s an excellent chance thousands of people are very familiar with the most famous work

by Elgar.

“Pomp and Circumstance” is undoubtedly Elgar’s biggest claim to fame. It has become the standard to which many soon-to-be graduates proceed into their graduation ceremonies, both in high school and college. As such, it has become one of the most recognized concert marches.

The song -- the trio section of the first march in a series written by Elgar -- was not written with the intention of being a graduation processional. Elgar built up

America.

The first time “Pomp and Circumstance” was played in a graduation setting was when Elgar received an honorary Doctorate from Yale University in 1905. At the end of the ceremony, the march was performed as recessional music. It was so well received that it was soon expected to be played during graduation ceremonies at many other prominent schools. Today it is rare to hear “The Graduation March” played outside of commencement ceremonies.

Many graduates have fond memories of hearing “Pomp and Circumstance” at their school commencement, even remembering the exact moment they received their degrees. For those attending a graduation ceremony in the near future, expect to hear this powerful march.

A guide to grilling with wood and smoke

At the corner of Oxford and Genesee in New Hartford~ Photo by Kim Haldas

One father is more than a hundred Schoolemasters.

~George Herbert, Outlandish Proverbs, 1640

Slow smoked chicken, ribs, and brisket are staples of the traditional American barbecue. The deep smoky flavors and fall-off-the-bone tenderness is a hallmark of the lowand-slow -- a low temperature, cooked over a long time -- cooking technique.

* Add wood chips five to 10 minutes before putting your meat on the grill --raw meats take on smoky flavors much better than even slightly cooked meats. Having a smoky environment to start will enhance and deepened flavors.

Originally, open pit fires were used for the slow cooking process.

Luckily, with a smoker box, wood chips and a gas barbecue, backyard chefs can now taste the smoky flavor of wood and cook with the convenience of gas.

* Smoked meats will have a deep, pink ring on the outside -- this indicates how deep the smoke has penetrated your meat.

Here are some helpful tips for adding smoky flavor to your next backyard meal.

* Mesquite is one of the most popular woods, it is sweeter and more delicate than hickory, and is a perfect complement to richly flavored meats such as beef, duck or lamb.

* Wood chips should be soaked in water for at least an hour before using. Drain them and add them to a stainless steel or cast iron smoker box. * Fill the smoker box twothirds of the way with chips and place the box on either the heat plate above the burner or on the cooking grids.

* Hickory is probably the most famous smoking hardwood. It imparts a strong hearty flavor to meats and is used mostly to smoke pork shoulders and ribs.

* Apple has a sweet, mild flavor and is used mostly with pork and game, but can be used for poultry as well.

Foods That Improve Your Looks??

In the simplest sense, eating a healthy diet can help maintain a good body weight, which is one way to improve individual appearance. But more specifically, there are certain foods that have particular benefits for the skin, hair and body. The key is knowing what to eat.

Soy: Soy is rich in amino acids. This food, whether eaten as a soy bean or in the many foods made from soy, including tofu, can help the skin retain moisture and improve elasticity. Soy is also protein-rich, which can help a person feel full longer and avoid overeating.

Blueberries and cherries: These fruits are chock full of antioxidants, which studies show can reduce inflammation, a culprit of puffy,

aging skin. Cherries are also a natural source of melatonin, which can help a person get a restful night’s sleep -- another component of looking your best.

Fresh herbs: Seasoning food with flavorful herbs instead of salt is another way to improve looks. Salt is often a culprit in water retention, which can lead to bloating and puffiness. This is also advantageous to people who need to reduce salt intake thanks to high blood pressure or other ailments.

Lime, pear, apple, and strawberry: These power fruits are high in vitamin C and other nutrients, making them an important component of a healthy diet. Furthermore, some research has suggested that certain foods, including limes, pears and apples, can whiten teeth.

Egg products: Eggs are high in vitamin A, which helps repair skin. Not getting enough vitamin A may contribute to wrinkles.

Milk products: Consuming low- or nonfat dairy products helps promote strong bones and teeth. Nothing says beautiful more than a big, bright smile. B vitamins in dairy also help with red blood cell growth, cells that are responsible for bringing oxygen to other cells. This can promote healthy, younglooking skin.

Yogurt: Yogurt contains beneficial bacteria, which help with digestion. This can help cleanse out the system and prevent toxins from backing up in the body.

Water: Of course a person needs to stay hydrated, and water can flush the body of excess salt and toxins while also plumping the skin.

How to prevent lawn damage Many homeowners aspire toward a pristine and lush lawn. For some a nice lawn gives them feelings of pride.

Others believe a perfect lawn enables them to have the best-looking house in the neighborhood. Many homeowners spend hours outdoors perfecting their lawns or spend a good deal of money hiring professionals to make their lawn more appealing. But just because a lawn looks good now doesn’t mean it will look good later. That’s because delicate grass can be damaged by a number of different factors.

Clean patio furniture the green way Its time to dust off the patio furniture and head outside to enjoy the warmer weather!

If only it was as easy as that.

Very often decks, patios and outdoor furniture need a little more than a quick clean-up to get them ready for the season. Too often people turn to harsh chemicals that, when washed away, can end up leaching into the surrounding ground and potentially the water supply.

There are more environmentally friendly options available to get outdoor items prepped for entertaining.

Those who have kids and pets or who are just interested in living an eco-friendly lifestyle, may wonder how to make patio furniture look like new without resorting to harsh chemical cleansers to do the job. Although it may take a little more elbow grease to do it the green way, here are some tips for cleaning up.

* Head into the kitchen.

People are often surprised to find they have some of the most versatile cleaning products in their cabinets and possibly even the refrigerator. Baking soda, vinegar and lemon juice are good cleans-

ers to try on stubborn stains.

Baking soda mixed with a little vinegar will create a foaming action that can help break through stains. Vinegar on its own is a natural deodorizer and can clean chrome and glass without leaving behind streaks. Baking soda mixed with a little water can be used as a scouring paste applied with a stiff-bristled brush, and it has even been shown to remove rust stains on some metal surfaces. The

acidity of lemon juice can help cut through oily messes and gummy substances. * Put some pressure behind the cleaning. Don’t underestimate the power of plain water -- especially if it’s being directed at dirt at a high velocity. Pressure washers are ideal for cleaning off mold, mildew and even leaf and bug stains from many surfaces, including concrete. Set the power washer at an acceptable spray size because, if it’s too concentrated, the spray can cause other damage. * Get steamed for cleaning. Steam is a popular and green method of cleaning indoor floors, counters and other surfaces. Steam can also be tried on resin

sentially traps for the worms, who fall into the burrows, where moles easily access them. Moles often stockpile worms for later consumption in underground larders.

Moles can be kept away with natural vole predators, such as cats, hawks, owls and snakes. Mouse traps can also capture voles when baited.

You may also dig sharp materials or chicken wire into your soil around planting beds to make it uncomfortable for

voles and moles to tunnel through.

Moles can also be controlled with traps. Finding active mole tunnels will help you place the traps effectively to either kill or simply contain the mole. The live animal can be relocated to a site where they won’t cause trouble.

Lawn damage can occur through a number of different factors. Finding out the cause can help you find an effective treatment.

GIFT CERTIFICATES Thoughtful confidential care one patient at a time.

To Celebrate Dad and Grads In June we formally honor and celebrate our fathers.

Those who have had the gift of a father who shared a home, visibly demonstrated his love, trusted us, gave us his time, came to our life events, heard us and helped us follow our dreams were truly fortunate. In the kingdom of life, we humans are among the few who actually have relationships with our fathers.

For many among the animals, fish and insects that is not the case.

So I asked a father I know and love what the role of fatherhood was for him and he answered quickly, if not reactively or perhaps even instinctively. Provide and protect. Certainly other things can be added to the list. Today’s fathers actively participate, nurture, change diapers, prepare meals and feed their

young the same way today’s mothers also provide for their babies. Yet in many families, at least early on, mama means business—meals, naps, bedtime—and papa means play and excitement. In play we learn so many things useful as we grow,real skills as well as how to have fun learning.

In June we also celebrate graduations.

Passages are among the more memorable times of life and to those who have worked hard toward a goal through education and training, finishing it to its completion, we salute you.

Isn’t it curious and good that passages and fathers are elevated together this month?

One afternoon I was sitting outside pulling weeds and listening to the new pair of crows that nested in a woodlot for the first time this year. I know there were two adults at home, and what must have been fledglings out on an early excursion from

the nest. For all their nuisances from our point of view, crows are, to use the familiar, scary smart sometimes. They

furniture or other materials to loosen debris, enabling the dirt to be wiped off with little elbow grease. Steam can also disinfect surfaces without the need for chemicals. * Look for green cleaning products. For those who prefer the power of a spray-bottle, select products that have been approved for use by notable environmental agencies.

These cleaning items will be free from damaging ingredients. Just be sure to check the ingredient list before making any purchases. * Bleach it. Diluted bleach is one of the most effective cleaning and disinfecting combinations around. Because bleach is an organic chemical, it can be introduced back into

the environment without doing much damage, provided it is substantially diluted. Check the color-fastness of the materials that will be cleaned in an inconspicuous spot prior to doing the whole surface. * Cover it. Sometimes the stains are so set in that they are not able to be scoured clean. In such instances, consider the use of eco-friendly fabrics to cover patio furniture upholstery. In addition, look for green paints that can be used to go over metal and even plastic furniture for a new look.

mate and together raise their young. Paternal behavior continues for a long time, and juveniles stay around to help with care of new broods.

What seems to be a loose flock is really a large, complex and connected extended family.

There was a variation from the typical loud harsh(read annoying) sounds I had been hearing all spring.

Then suddenly there came a softer, tentative voice- the nestling. It was a whole different timbre and volume but clearly crow. I could see nothing, but maybe the adult was looking for action. The juvenile did not sound sure, in fact sounded almost supplicating, but the adult calls did not noticeably change.

Something was to happen.

Finally, there were rushes and big flutters of wings, cracklings of branches, followed by loud thuds into what seemed a tree trunk or large limb. Thuds that made me wince. This went on for a short time, flutters, cracklings and thuds,and then the rest of the afternoon was largely silent. Some time thereafter, I saw an adult crow with two juveniles, one at each side, flying a circlearound the area. Although actual “flying lessons” do not occur in the crow world, I smile at the unity and imagined a father crow out with his young who were learning to use wings and leave the nest. Thankfully, when it happens with us humans there usually are fewer crashes and thuds!

Dads can survive daughters’ teenage years A daughter may begin as “Daddy’s little girl,” all wide-eyed and full of sunshine.

However, as she ages, many fathers find they lose that special connection they once had with their daughters. Effective communication can help bridge the gap that sometimes forms between fathers and daughters when girls become teenagers.

It’s easy for a daughter to be Daddy’s girl when she is young. Many daughters see their dad as a heroic figure. He puts together doll houses, mends broken toys, kisses her “boo-boos” when she gets hurt and comes home with that shiny, pink tricycle she adores. Fathers often have soft spots for their daughters and don’t necessarily mind being manipulated by their charms. All it takes are little pouts of pursed lips for daughters to get cookies or spend a few more minutes watching Dora.

However, things tend to change as daughters grow up. They go to school, find new interests and suddenly Daddy isn’t the center of life anymore. Before long, boys capture the girls’ attention and Dad plays second fiddle to Justin Beiber, Robert Pattinson, et al. Suddenly Dad’s role as hero morphs into protector instead. He may see himself as the defender of his daughter’s virtue, while she sees her father as the lead prison guard. Finding a balance can keep the lines of communication -- and love -- open. * Be available often. Frequently spending time together and showing a genuine interest in what your daughter likes can keep conversations going. It may be difficult to stay focused on the latest girl trends or which guy she’s rooting for in “The Hunger Games,” but simply spending time in each other’s presence can continue to build on the foundation of comfort and trust. * Cherish the moments while you can.

Before you know it, she’ll be out of the house and fully immersed in her own life. So make the most of opportunities to share time together while they’re still available. * Lead by example. Show her how much you love her mother and ingrain those images in her mind. They say girls often lean toward men who emulate their own fathers. If you’re a good dad and husband, she just may land a respectable boyfriend or husband down the line.

* Be calm, cool and collected when meeting her first boyfriend. It’s alright to be over-protective -- that’s your job. But realize that attempting to scare away every prospective suitor who arrives at the house is ineffective. She’ll just try harder, and maybe soon she won’t ask guys to pick her up at home.

Where will that leave you then? * Realize hormones are real, and they cause profound changes in a girl’s life.

A girl goes through many

changes as she progresses into womanhood. It can be a happy or challenging time for her as she comes to terms with a new body and feelings. Have patience; things will level out with time. * Tell her she’s beautiful when you can. She may not always believe you, but with so many magazines and media messages showing girls how they need to change to be pretty, some comforting words can go a long way. * Learn to pick your battles. Many teenagers test boundaries through-

out their adolescence. Be sure to veto some of her choices, but let her follow through on some so she can learn some of her own lessons the hard way.

Prima DeJa Vu Resale Shoppe

* Chances are the wardrobe, makeup and piercings will be just a phase. She’s finding herself in the world and looking for an identity.

There may be some interesting styles along the way.

Unless it’s a health threat or dangerous, you may want to go with the flow. * Make it known that she can always come home.

Whether’s she’s in trouble, needs support or simply wants to say hello, set it in stone that your door is always open.

Amy is the vocalist and her husband, Paul, plays the piano or keyboards.

The project covers a wide base of material from lounge type favorites to top 40 hits from yesterday and today.

Paul’s expert musicianship and Amy’s big vocal presence has turned a lot of heads toward the two and they enjoy an active gig-

I had the pleasure of talking with Amy recently about the duo’s journey as artists and neighbors in Central New York. Find out a little bit about what they are about

Tell me a little about how you got started and made it to the point you are at now.

and then go check out one of their sets! I’ll let you in on the inside scoop.

Back when I was probably 21 years old I started singing karaoke out here. I moved here from Vermont. I used to waitress, and a bunch of us used to go out and do karaoke. It spiraled from there…and I ended up trying out for a band when I was 28 years old.

I’ve been singing ever since.

My fist band was a country band called Wild Cactus. We played Nothing Fancy in Vernon Downs.

And then how did the duo you are in now materialize?

28 PULSE pulsepointpress.com JUNE 2012

Paul and I are married. I met Paul in the band Time Trooper. It was around 2006/2007 when I started singing with Time Trooper. We were friends for the longest time and just were in a big large 7 piece band together. I did lead vocals and another gentleman did lead vocals. It was always a dream Paul had of doing a piano duo, and I always had a dream of being a soloist and being showcased ..it’s fun [being in a large, full band] but at the same time it’s a lot more wear and tear.

And Paul was actually in Time Trooper for 20 years. He’s been playing piano since he

was 6 years old. He is from Scotia, NY. What keeps you here in the Mohawk Valley area?

We really do love the music scene around here. You really don’t have to travel far to see good music. We should keep things going on in our area, keep the money here, the young people, everything.

Entertainment is a huge part in bringing people. We love New Hartford it’s been one of the nicest communities.

We play at Georgio’s they’ve been very good to us. Props has been very good to us.

Piers and Blake, the Yahnundasis, the Delta Inn, and The Hadley..The Green Onion Pub, on certain events they will showcase music. We love to network. We love to see other people do it and be happy to because making music is a great thing. I have a son who is 11, Joey. He plays the saxophone and is in chorus in school. Very well rounded but definitely has an entertainment gene in him.

He thinks he is a comedian.

They are booked to participate in a fund raiser for the Utica Music and Arts Festival on August 10th which will be taking place on The Adirondack Scenic Railroad. Keep an eye on PULSE for more details as the event shapes up.

If you are a fixture fan on the local music scene keep supporting the Amy Lyn Duo or get out to see them if you have not yet. If you don’t know about the great group of musicians and artists the area has to offer, this duo is a great place to get started.

Enjoy an evening of great company and music at any of the upcoming shows and share a smile with the people you share your neighborhood with. It always takes a village! ~Melissa L. Walker Thank you Melissa for such an amazing interview... PULSE

Death is not a topic many people prefer to discuss. However, discussing funeral planning and making arrangements can be a smart financial move and one that limits large decisions at a time of heightened emotions.

It’s never too early to begin pre-planning a funeral. There are very good reasons for pre-need planning. All arrangements can be thoroughly considered and spelled out so they meet a person’s desires.

Stress and grief can make family members unable to cope with decisions during the time of death. As a result, one of the most important reasons for pre-need planning is to make the process one in which close friends and family members can come to grips with the death, rather than having to run around for a few days and make arrangements in haste.

Ebennezer’s Cafe and Creamery...

A MUST VISIT!!

As a boy, Evan DuChene had trouble learning to pronounce his first name when he was learning to speak. He kept saying "Eben" instead of "Evan", so his parents nicknamed him "Ebeneezer".

focaccia bread made famous at the Sherrill park fest.

A couple of decades later, that nickname has grown into a thriving business for Evan DuChene and his wife, Kathy.

For dessert, try a slice of Jack Griffith’s apple pie. This is the recipe Evan’s grandfather brought from Wales many years ago. Other treats include creamy Rice Pudding, freshly baked Pies an awsome Chocolate Cake and of course the famous (to live for) Bread Pudding with Custard Sauce. All home made... of course!!

While the DuChenes originally planned to open an ice cream parlor, Ebeneezer's Cafe & Creamery, it has become a full-service restaurant.

At first, the Sherrill couple wanted to convert a former beauty salon on Sherrill Road next to Yankee Ltd. into a parlor but hit a roadblock of code problems. So, they doubled the size of the building to add a dining room.

Ebeneezer's intriguing menus include lunch, soups and salads, Friday night dinners, desserts and don't forget the ice cream!

According to Evan, even as the menu and ambiance grow, Ebeneezer's quality service will always be a hallmark. "You can go anywhere and get a good sandwich but what's more important is friendly service. That's a must."

As soon as you sit down you will be tempted with various types of espressos including cappuccino, daily flavored coffees, teas and juices. Their cappuccino is brewed on site, the real deal!

Ebeneezer’s lunch menu consists of an array of sandwiches including Ham, Tuna and Egg salad, deli meats, as well as a hand pattied “man-sized” Burger served on a kaiser roll. Daily specials created by award winning chef, Joel Agan, truly define the word special; an example of his Magic... the Pot Roast sandwich served on grilled

The lighter side of the menu has garden, julienne, Caesar and Chicken Caesar salads and homemade soup.

Friday’s will feature dinner specials ranging from their famous Fresh Haddock Fish Fry to Baked Mahi Mahi; all prepared fresh to order.

And don’t overlook the specialty sundaes, each named for a member of the family except The Turtle, a tribute to hot fudge, caramel topping and whipped cream. Hard ice cream offerings are HERSHEY® products, they also offer soft serve ice cream and the ALL NEW... Amazing Only 8® Frozen yogurt. Only 1 point per 1/2 cup on the Weight Watcher’s® PointsPlus System!! A customer recently told Evan she was going to, “wear a path from Clinton to here” to enjoy her Only 8 cup of goodness! “One whole cup for only 2 points, and I figured it out on my points calculator... so I know its accurate!”

Fantastic homemade food, Friday night dinner specials, small party catering, off site catering and their fantastic ice cream parlor are all wonderful reasons to go visit Ebeneezer’s Cafe and Creamery!!
