Family life Parents are making healthy child choices The Parent Files

By Heather Campbell

Tiny terrors TO BE a parent is to live in a near-constant state of fright. No doubt some of us hide it better than others, but still, it’s there.

It’s there in the knee-jerk pang of dread you feel as your suddenly deaf-acting child tuns rapidly towards a busy road (you know he knows when to stop, but still, every time, you wonder: Will he?)

It’s there in the dull, guilty ache as you watch his face crumple in on itself like a Muppet’s when you drop him off at the school gate (is he going to be this attached forever? Through college?? Until he’s a 50-year-old living in your basement, still demanding dinosaur-shaped chicken nuggets?!?)

And it’s there in the hundreds, if not thousands, of insidious fears that dance through your over-caffeinated, sleep-deprived brain day and night. Is he eating too much sugar? Does he watch too much TV? Is that a rash? Is he happy? Is she normal? If they eat a slice of non-organic red pepper will the pesticides kill them immediately, or will it take a few days?

Some fears - rational or irrational - can’t be avoided. But some still manage to take me by surprise like the realisation that I have to explain things that I either forgot after primary school or just totally take for granted now Most of us are not cut out for homeschooling, admittedly, but that doesn’t save us from being naively trusted as the foremost authorities on life and the universe, at least during our children’s first years.

As soon as my son’s tiny mouth learned to form the word “why” he started asking about everything — and, in doing so, revealed how disastrously my formal education failed me. Or, rather, how much I had forgotten...

“I think that’s called … a sexagon,” I said hesitantly when he recently pointed to a six-sided shape. A quick Google search revealed that a hexagon has six sides, and that a sexagon has a very colourful definition...

I think I need to go back to school...

PARENTS are making positive and practical changes to their children’s diets and physical activity levels in an effort to reduce childhood obesity, new research has revealed.

The study, carried out by safefood, also shows a significant increase in awareness by parents that excess weight in childhood is associated with poorer health in later life (up 6%).

Other findings of the research included a significant reduction in the number of parents giving treat foods to children every day (down 9%) and an increase in the number of parents open to discussing the issue of weight if they needed to (up 7%).

Welcoming the findings. Minister Varadkar says: “It’s really heartening to see that families are paying closer attention to their children’s diet and physical activity. Childhood obesity is one of the biggest risks to this nation’s future health. It looks like families are increasingly conscious of how even small changes to children’s diet and physical activity can make a big difference. I want to commend everyone who has made those small but significant changes to their diets and lifestyles.”

Dr Cliodhna Foley-Nolan, Director, Human Health & Nutrition, safefood continues: “As a society we didn’t reach this child weight crisis overnight nor will it be solved in one year but these results highlight that our campaign messages have really resonated with parents. It’s not easy to cut down on sugary foods when children have become used to overindulging but parents are making really important changes; it’s vital now to keep up this positive momentum for the health of our children.”

At present, approximately 1-in4 primary school children are overweight or obese. The prevalence of excess weight is also beginning earlier in childhood, with 6% of 3 year olds currently being obese.

LIFE has become very busy for many of us and sometimes we wonder have we shown up at all. If someone was to take a roll call would we even put up our hand!

Many of us live in auto-pilot and devote much of our time just doing while our thoughts are elsewhere. We spend a lot of time in a sort of trance, made up of the past, the future and other thoughts. Mindfulness practice invites us to pay attention to the actual moment we can experience

– the present! Mindfulness is a very old technique which is becoming increasingly popular at the present time.

At its simplest, mindfulness means being aware of what you are doing while you are doing it.

Mindfulness is a practice that allows us to show up and be present in our lives as if it really matters!!

That doesn’t mean we can no longer think about the past or future, but when we do so we do so mindfully,

so that we’re aware that right now we’re thinking about the past or future and not just caught up in the trance of our internal thoughts or indeed on auto-pilot.

In the practice of mindfulness we are mindful of what our senses are bringing us, our hearing, sight, taste, touch and smell.

Mindfulness invites one to pay attention to these senses in a nonjudgemental way.

The Breath is an always present

object of mindfulness and awareness.

Simply by gently bringing your attention to your breathing and noticing perhaps your in- breath and out-breath you are bringing your awareness to the present moment, in a sense you are taking a moment to ‘catch your breath’!

As we take about 20,000 breaths per day there is plenty of opportunity to practice this simple mindful exercise.

Mindfulness has many benefits and can enrich many of life’s experiences.

Mindfulness promotes clarity of mind, wellbeing and it has a strong evidence base for stress reduction and improved sleep. It is discrete, free and mobile. Even in our frantic world mindfulness practice can give you a sense of space and perspective.

32 PUZZLES

9 April 2015

CROSSWORDS Take a moment to consider what happens when you switch on anything electrical.

Chances are you need to be careful with it from then on. This week it looks as though it will be you who’s once again be ‘switched on’. Yes that’s exciting and yes, you may well be brimming with ideas (good commercial ones at that).

If there hasn’t yet been the need for improvements in your domestic scene, anticipate that these will surface. It’s probable that your working life will also be affected - most likely driven by changes made within a large organisation.

Developments in their plans could have most positive effect on yours.

Don’t fret: you’ll have PLENTY to talk about before the end of the week. Ideas are likely to come thick and fast. It may be that one of your Fire signs friends or colleagues (Aries, Leo or Sagittarius) is instigator. You might agree that what they propose is the breath of fresh air you’ve been yearning for.

Over the last few years you’ve no doubt become used to dealing with the unexpected. Even so you might not be prepared for events this week that could push you - both career and domestically - into the realms of the unknown. It won’t be so surprising if you stand out from the crowd in some way.

It wouldn’t be so surprising if you decide to ‘draw a line in the sand’. It may be that you recognise that if you don’t, then the whims of those who (to your mind) have messed you around for months, are declared unacceptable. These may well prove battle lines - but essential if you’re to complete a life adventure that’s been stifled.

What’s been incubating since late last year could take on fresh energy from Thursday. First though, there’s a need to go back over decisions already taken.

It may be that the needs of another generation have changed - or that someone further up your working command has had to alter their objectives.

SUDOKU

Is it possible that you’ve self-sabotaged. Or is it someone on your team who’s changed direction? By Thursday a rethink may well be necessary. There are some whom may feel you are just too valuable to be allowed to go off at a tangent. Anticipate then that by Thursday you could feel the tug of reins.

Shifts of energy occur all the time, with some more marked than others. This Thursday’s comes into that category. Though this could also bring with it some extra-ordinary expenses, it may be that these are essential. You may feel you need to get in touch with someone far removed.

Be prepared for further shocks and surprises this week. It could be that someone from a younger generation is at the heart of exciting activity. It’s as likely that a plan you’ve been incubating for some months will reach critical stage.

What seems certain is that this won’t be a boring few days!

If there was ever any doubt about your entrepreneurial flair there ought not to be by the end of this week. The timing could possibly be better in that it may well be that a developing family situation requires just as much attention, yet you may now have a group of supporters providing a good safety net.

You could be at your unpredictable best this week! OK, you might not see it that way. This might also mean that you’re ready to challenge and, by the weekend, yes you could be involved in a dispute. By then though, you could appear as an unstoppable force. That’s not to say that you’ll win in the end however.

It may be that you arrive a decision-making point. Unexpected developments could drive this and require involvement with an educational establishment.

There’s a distinct possibility that you’ll be required to take on extra responsibility. Expertise acquired over the last seven (or 14) years could be put to the test.

Book of the week

A Song of Shadows, by John Connolly (approx €17.99) In order to recover from a serious wound, private detective Charlie Parker moves to the small town Boreas in Maine. He becomes friendly with a secretive widow, Ruth Winter and her daughter, Amanda. He gets drawn into a case that has roots in the Second World War. Intertwined with Ruth’s past, she looks to Charlie Parker for protection. With his enemies thinking he is alone and vulnerable, Parker has a secret advantage – as something emerges from the shadows...

7

DVD of the week

Horrible Bosses 2 (DVD) (approx €12.99) Jason Bateman, Jason Sudeikis and Charlie Day return as three longsuffering friends in this comedy sequel. After enduring some trying experiences with their former bosses, Nick Hendricks (Bateman), Kurt Buckman (Sudeikis) and Dale Arbus (Day) decide to go into business together with their invention of the ‘Shower Buddy’. However, their investor (Christoph Waltz) pulls his funding and instead creates his own superior version of their product. Jennifer Aniston and Kevin Spacey also reprise their roles as the horrible bosses from the previous film.

8

Game of the week

Call of Duty: Ghosts (PS3) (approx €19.99) Set in a new game universe, the events of Ghosts take place in a near future in which the US has been ravaged by a catastrophic attack and the West is on its knees. A new superpower has emerged south of the equator and is laying siege to the States. The once-mighty America now relies on an elite squad of soldiers, modeled on SEAL Team 6, to defend it. You’re no longer top dog with an endless supply of state of the art weaponry behind you.

9

Movie of the week

Cinderella The story of “Cinderella” follows the fortunes of young Ella (Lily James) whose merchant father remarries following the death of her mother. Eager to support her loving father, Ella welcomes her new stepmother (Cate Blanchett) and her daughters Anastasia (Holliday Grainger) and Drisella (Sophie McShera) into the family home.

But, when Ella’s father unexpectedly passes away, she finds herself at the mercy of a jealous and cruel new family...

10

App of the week

Enlight There are tons of photo editors out there. That’s why Enlight is such a great app because it honestly does a lot of the great things that VSCO Cam, Instagram, or any other app can do, but funnels it all into one app. So if you hate switching among apps just to get a picture looking right (and you don’t need crazy in-depth controls), then Enlight is a pretty great catchall. Also, act fast because it’s currently 50 percent off in iTunes.

Film review Furious 7 Rated 12 A

The Selecter

Each week Brian Kennedy brings you the best of bands, groups and solo artists that Waterford has to offer.

To cut a long story Shortt THE name may have changed through the years from Fat Sam’s to Peig’s (or the Coachman’s Inn if you’re really old – like me) and the ownership too, but Shortts Bar on John’s Street has rapidly become a mainstay of renowned and happening bands in the city and beyond.

I remember those old fogies Avalon (I love them really) becoming one of the very first bands to take centre stage in a redeveloped pub with feet on the ground yet reaching for the stars with the ‘named’ acts they would bring to town while also showcasing the best the city has to offer. Last week Supersoul Machine, a quality combo hailing from Clonmel with a huge repertoire, rocked the joint while Ruffus & The Social followed suit on Saturday.

And the public have

responded, so much so it seems, Shortts will be a weekend rite of passage for quite some time to come. You just cannot beat live music in a happening venue.

The right ‘selection’ in Tramore It seems Tramore has become the epicentre of Ska music in recent times! This was again showcased with the Tramore Ska & Reggae Festival 2015 over the Easter Weekend. The headline act ,The Selecter, have been knocking about for 35 years now – with the mercurial Pauline Black still fronting the Coventry based outfit with more members then a couple of football teams since their inception in 1979.

The days of ‘On My Radio’ from the Gold selling, ‘Too Much Pressure’, album may have passed but the energy the eight-piece bring to proceedings isn’t far off their 2 Tone days of the early 80’s. when Ska made it breakthrough and fans of the music and culture have stayed true to both the music and bands like The Selecter.

Music at the Museum The 30 member Intonations Choir choir revisits the Medieval Museum to perform music from modern artists such as Pink and Gary Jules along with songs by the Beatles, show tunes from musicals by Andrew Lloyd Webber and from Disney’s ‘Frozen’.

Formed over a year ago, Waterford Choir Intonations came together to provide an alternative to the more traditional choir, describing themselves and what they do as ‘Glee for adults – delivering songs in a fun style that audiences find engaging and enjoyable’. The choir comprises members from all walks of life in the community, from business owners to homemakers and everything else in between.

Tickets available on the door.

Concerts kindly supported by Waterford City and County Council.

Sunday April 12 at 12:30 pm, Tickets €7 / €5 concession / Family €14 (2 adults & 2 children). Doors open: 12 Noon

With a brave cast of amazing actors, a great fun script, superb scenery, and of course DINOSAURS Get transported to a prehistoric place full of fun, thrills and screams, be amazed and awed by the birth of a baby Dinosaur, but beware of the T.

FRESH off their success in Fast & Furious 6, Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel), Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker, sadly deceased) and the rest of their merry band of speed freaks have returned to the U.S. to try and live normal lives, but they soon get swept up in an OTT storyline spanning the globe.

Wan expertly deals with the omission of Paul Walker’s Brian O’Connor, while the emotional dedication to their fallen comrade is proudly brazen, and you’ll struggle not to get caught up in it.

And it’s that undercurrent of affection that elevates Furious 7 above its predecessors. There’s nothing subtle or pretentious about it, plus it gives viewers the perfect goodbye to Walker.

Furious 7 - it’s daft, over the top and gratuitous... it’s glorious

Home Rated U KIDS will be entertained by the perpetual motion of Home, while most adults in the theatre will tune out or glance at the watch every few minutes.

Home introduces a hyper-nervous race of squishy purple aliens known as The Boov. Led by the mildly delusional Captain Smek (Steve Martin), the Boov leapfrog from planet to planet trying to stay one step ahead of the predatory Gorgsr.

The Boov’s latest destination? Planet Earth.

Our hero is ‘Oh’ (Jim Parsons), who tries so hard to fit in, but can’t. So, when he encounters a stranded little girl (Rihanna) following the initial clean sweep of Earth’s population, he sets out to help this orphan reunite with her mother… and possibly prevent the Gorgs from finding out where the Boov are currently hiding.

A

CITY of bright lights, crazy dreams, spectacular shows and the biggest casinos in the world.

Travel to New York, Egypt, Paris and Venice in a day, get married

by Elvis, gamble it all away at the casino, or ride on a roller coaster on top of a hotel tower. What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, right?

Over-the-top, round-the-clock, bright and glitzy... the real heart of the city is the stretch better known as the Strip. A playground for the rich and famous, the hotels have their own shopping arcades, restaurants and casinos.

For a glimpse of old Vegas, head downtown for chic cocktail bars and trendy nightclubs. And when

it’s time for something completely different, drive out into the desert for the awe-inspiring natural

beauty of the Grand Canyon.

The best time to visit Las Vegas is during the spring when

temperatures sit between the mid20s and early 30s (°C).

The main airport near Las Vegas is McCarran International Airport (LAS) which is 8km south of downtown Las Vegas.

LAS VEGAS IS BEST FOR...

Party animals: Dance ‘til dawn at a trendy club, then start all over again at a pool party.

Romantics: Vegas ‘Strip’ Helicopter Flight. If you want to see the real sparkle of Las Vegas then it has to be from above.

Scenery Lovers: Experience the wondrous beauty of the Grand Canyon on the West Rim Bus Tour.

History lovers: Learn more about Amsterdam’s rich past at the Rijksmuseum.

Bargain hunters: Pick up trinkets and vintage clothing at one of Amsterdam’s canal-side markets.

Skincare in your %\ (PHU .HOO\ Attention, young beauties: this is a really significant time for your skin. The way you care for it now can affect what it will look like for the remainder of your lifetime. Because it’s likely at its healthiest, and full of collagen support, your skin is supple. You may already have sun damage, but it has not yet started to show.

The number one complaint from adults in their 20s is spots, but this is avoidable.

Most 20-somethings break out because they use dehydrating products that strip their skin of natural oils. This causes oil glands to overproduce, resulting in pimples.

Here are some tips for you:

20s

Use gentle products, and focus on damage prevention. You don’t need anti-wrinkle creams or Microdermabrasion in your 20s. It’s significant to use creams suited for your skin or you can cause damage.

Cleanser: If you have normal skin, you need to wash it only once a daytime. Use a mild cleanser—either a gel, if your skin is oily, or a milky one, if it’s dry.

Moisturiser: Pick a brand, any brand. But be absolutely sure that your moisturiser has SPF 15 or 20, and that it gives you both UVA and UVB protection.

Apply it all over your face and

CHEEKY EYES Sleek Make Up Eye & Cheek Palette, in a choice of two fragrances. Price: €12.99, from Boots

on your neck and chest. This is critical no matter what your age.

Night time treatment: Use a hydrating fluid or an oil-free moisturiser. Many dermatologists recommend starting on the vitamin A-derivative prescription retinoids (like Retin-A, Tazorac, and Avage)—the gold standard for reducing fine lines, stimulating collagen, and treating acne—or products containing the less potent, overthe-counter retinol. Before bed, use a pea-size amount all over your face.

Never forget: Every Body is Beautiful.

SPA TIME Pamper yourself with a rejuvenating Thalgo spa session from Kieran O’Gorman’s Beauty and Day Spa, The Butterslip

JOIN THE JET SET Get a fresh glowing complexion with the help of the Jet Peel 3V treatment. It’s an allnatural, virtually painless procedure that dramatically improves the appearance and texture of your skin. Available at Therapie Clinic, Waterford

IMAGE CONSCIOUS Image Skincare is only available through licensed estheticians, all highly trained and educated in individual skincare programmes. You can find them in Kilkenny at Image Beauty, The Butterslip

Jacket -in AS the seasons’ change, leave the heavy coats at home and take cover in lighter layers.

From the freshest colours to new silhouettes, check out what coats and jackets we’ll be wearing this spring…

A lighter look

Low rise Yellow pump, from Debenhams

Bag it Gionni Cream and Black medium bag.

Price: €45, from Pamela Scott

The classic trench

For the journey

Nothing says ‘spring’ like pastel hues. Look for a classic style in these hues and it will give any outfit the high-fashion edge.

Powder blue is a shade to watch this season. Layer a biker jacket in this colour over knits right now or a chic tee when the weather warms up The trench coat is synonymous with style. It’s the coat to invest in now and wear forever.

Luxurious layers

Thrown on over a polo neck or loose-fitting cami, a waterfall shape jacket works for day or night

Pretty in pink

A sugar-sweet shade couldn’t be fresher for this time of year. Team a pink jacket with monochrome pieces for instant style.

In the detail

A collarless biker is a great way to nail this season’s minimal trend. Add quilted panels to switch up a traditional style.

Borrow from the boys

The simple shape of blazer in a standout colour is great with tailored trousers or skinny jeans.

Flame Statement Leather Necklace handmade out of recycled Italian leather, sterling silver wire and red crackle glass beads.

FOOD & WINE

9 April 2015 IRRG#ZDWHUIRUGPDLO LH

Food & drink White:

Quick and tasty

Masi Masianco From Italy, 13%abv This wine is ¾ Pinot Grigio and ¼ Verduzzo and has a lovely bouquet not usual with Pinot Grigio, it’s quite dry too. The fruits I tasted were apricot and a little melon. It’s that good that you’ll not want to share with others, indeed if you’re having it with food leave the bottle in the kitchen altogether. You can drink on its own but is best served with light pasta dishes or fish. €16.99 a bottle.

Cajun rice with chorizo meatballs & fried eggs Whip up a nutritious family dinner in just 20 minutes with this easy rice and sausage dish with peppers and peas - top with fried eggs.

Prep: 5 mins Cook: 15 mins Serves: 4

Red:

INGREDIENTS • 6 chorizo-style cooking sausages • 100g frozen chopped onions (see tip, bottom left) • 2 peppers, sliced (any colours will do) • 3 garlic cloves, crushed • 2 tbsp Cajun spices mix • 2 x 200g bags frozen cooked shortgrain rice • 1 tbsp vegetable oil • 4 eggs • 200g frozen peas

Montgras Reserva Carmenere From Chile, 14%abv Here’s an interesting little wine fact, “Reserva” is not a protected term in Chile anyone can stick it on a bottle and it means nothing about then wine or its age, however that’s not what I want to tell you about this cracker. The wine has spice and tobacco on the nose and in the mouth it gives a peppery full mouth feel with lots of dry oak and some liquorice too. For me, this is a great wine with Indian or Mexican food. €13.99 a bottle or 2 for €20 this month.

METHOD • 1 Heat a large frying pan with a lid. Squeeze the sausagemeat into the pan in small, meatball-sized chunks. Fry for 2 mins until their oil leaks into the pan, then push to one side and add the onions and peppers. Cook for a few mins until the onions have defrosted and softened, then stir in the garlic and Cajun spice mix. After 1 min, add the frozen rice, season and stir, then cover with a lid and cook for 2 mins until totally defrosted.

• 2 Meanwhile, heat the oil in another small pan and fry the eggs to your liking. Uncover the rice, add the peas, give everything a good stir, cover and cook for 1 min until the peas are defrosted. Serve the rice topped with the fried eggs.

Mecca for food lovers WEST Waterford Festival of Food (April 9 -12), centred in Dungarvan, is a mecca for food lovers and fun seekers.

With a programme that has proven to be the perfect mix of free events and ticketed ones and an equally perfect mix of high-end dining opportunities and casual bistro experiences and it certainly offers something for all ages.

The festival’s ethos is one of supporting local food heroes such as: food producers, restaurants, cafes and local retailers. The festival team is also drawn from the local community, so ticket collectors, parking attendants, ushers, guides and stewards are all volunteers from across the town and region.

Food producers include the likes of Flahavans, Glanbia, and Dawn Meats, all with origins in West Waterford along with smaller artisan producers, many of whom are still being inspired to share their love of food and produce with us.

The weekend has also proven to be a magnet for Michelin-starred chefs such as Ross Lewis of Chapter One in Dublin, Derry Clarke of L’Ecrivann, also Dublin, and our locally-based Martijn Kajuiter of the Cliff House Hotel in Ardmore, Co. Waterford.

In 2013 Paul and Máire Flynn of Dungarvan’s Tannery Restaurant hosted an evening of nose-to-tail eating with Fergus Henderson of renowned London restaurant St John.

The greatly admired Richard Corrigan is a frequent visitor and great supporter of the weekend. Last year saw the return of Ross Lewis and Richard Corrigan along with Fergus and Margot Henderson, Michael Quinn, Garrett Byrne, and Martijn Kajuiter.
