Entertain your guests with a charcuterie board By LISA SWEET Special to the Times
November is a time of year for convivial gatherings of friends and family all centered around warm drinks and sumptuous food. Holiday meals take time and careful planning, yet sometimes, as a host we have to be prepared for those special impromptu visits. According to the Emily Post Institute at emilypost.com, “No polite host would ever send an uninvited guest packing.” Whether it is a planned fete or a makeshift party, it is always exciting and fun to have your doorbell ring and spend time with family and friends. It is always in our best interest to be prepared for last-minute get-togethers so you can be a prompt and courteous host. By no means are you expected to feed an entire family of six, especially if you weren’t planning to, but I always like to have a sampling of meats and cheeses at the ready for a quick and easy charcuterie board. But first, what is charcuterie? Pronounced “shahr-koo-tuh-ree,” it is derived from the French meaning cold cooked meats. Nowadays it is understood as a platter of small tastes of food that include cured meats, pickled items, cheeses, toasts and more. It is one of my favorite ways to entertain so I always keep my larder stocked with a variety of mustards, chutneys, pickles and some cheeses I find at a farmers market or gourmet shop. Putting together a charcuterie board, or what
6 Leavenworth County Living
we used to call growing up “a cheese-and-crackers tray” really takes no skill, just a sense of foodie adventure and you really can’t go wrong. I always like to have olives, a sampling of three types of cheeses along with a savory chutney, a sweet jam or sometimes fresh honeycomb. Pickled items, olives and nuts, along with cured meats and toast points finish up the dish. I always serve it with a nice wine, and tend toward a deep red in the winter. It can be as simple or avant-garde as you wish, and in my opinion, as long as you have a beautiful board to serve it on you can entertain your guests with some tiny bites without turning on a stove. What is wonderful about the cheese board is with so many items to choose from they are extremely forgiving, as you don’t have to have a specific type or amount of food in order to succeed. You can pair pickles and various spreads to one specific cheese, or pair your cheese with some fresh fruit (pears, apples and grapes are always nice), toast or crackers and meats with various mustards are always a hit and anything you have in your pantry. If your’re unsure where to start, I direct you to Cherokee Street in Leavenworth. Three shops in particular are positioned perfectly to outfit your pantry with the very basics and more exotic offerings for a sophisticated cheese board. The Pot Rack, Z&M Twisted Wines and Winery and First City Cheese Market will have you prepared so that you have the perfect items on hand to treat your peckish guests. To start your charcuterie-progressive, make a
stop at First City Cheese Market, 610 Cherokee St., soon to open. First City Cheese Market is a purveyor of some locally sourced cheeses and some further afield.They include Carr Valley Wisconsin Cheese, Green Dirt Farm, Shatto Creamery, Next to Nature Farms and Hemme Brothers Creamery. First City Cheese Market looks forward to providing Leavenworth a cheese education through in-store tastings and providing patrons with other special items in addition to cheese to round out their cheese boards. They plan on selling an array of honey, pickles, jams and jellies, woodfire breads, chocolates and more. When I asked the owners at First City Cheese Market (www.firstcitycheesemarket.com) to provide me with what their ideal charcuterie board would include they said charcuterie boards should always have sweet, savory, salty and spicy components with colorful items such as grapes, strawberries, pickles, celery and apple slices, herbs with beautiful leaves and even some other edible greenery. They mentioned using various crackers, nuts, mustards and jams, along with salami and club-style meats. When it came to cheeses they suggested presenting a variety of cheese that would be both delicious and aesthetically pleasing, including items like cubes of cheddar along side slices of smoked Gouda or a salty gruyere cheese. Next, make your way to 620 Cherokee St., home to Z&M Twisted Wines and Winery. Cheese Continued on page 7
Entertain your guests with a charcuterie board Continued from page 6 and wine is a classic pairing and owners Bryan and Gina enjoy sharing their love of one-of-a-kind wines with their customers and teaching them about the process of wine making at their store. When asked about the perfect charcuterie board they would put together for friends for the holidays they said, “How much time do you have? We actually already serve an antipasto plate and hummus platter at the winery. The antipasto comes with four meats, three cheeses, Italian olives, crackers and dried fruit. Pinot noirs are the traditional go-to for charcuterie. Right now, all of our wines are innovative blends with our own twist, so for folks who come by the winery and order our antipasto plate, we would recommend a Z&M wine that shares some of the characteristics of a Pinot noir. Our signature red blend, Remembrance, would pair well with the meat, cheese and dried fruit due to its semi-dry character. Our Household 6 sangria is another red that would complement the antipasto plate because of its fruity flavor profile. The hummus platter at the winery includes roasted red pepper hummus, fresh vegetables, pita bread and olive salad. For crudites, a rule of thumb is usually a crisp white or a light red wine.” By now your shopping bags should be to the point of bursting, but don’t forget to you have to
serve it on something. Head over to The Pot Rack (www.thepotracklv.com) at 626 Cherokee St. The Pot Rack is a premier specialty gourmet retailer that has a huge selection of items for anyone interested in name-brand knives, pots and pans, kitchen appliances, linens, gourmet foods and more. What is also a great perk, especially for the holidays, is they offer complimentary gift wrapping. The folks at The Pot Rack are always willing to talk to you and provide tips on entertaining and food. It truly is a gem in Leavenworth and my favorite place to wander around and chances are I can always find something I need and want.
They have beautiful bamboo boards and rustic wooden platters to serve your cheese tray, as well as specialized knives and spreaders, along with miniature spoons and ramekins for your softer items. They also have a complete gourmet food section with toast points, chutneys, mustards and spreads. I suggest you head out soon and get ready for your guests. Whether they are surprising you on your doorstep or you invited them weeks in advance, you will be prepared with some of the most singular and exceptional gourmet food that will show your visitors how much you care.

Alcohol and drug use by children and youth are associated with poor academic performance, impaired development, mental health issues, and many factors that affect the health and behavior of youth. Early substance abuse increases the likelihood of a person developing psychiatric disorders in his or her late 20s. The percentages of youth enraging in delinquent behaviors rose with increasing frequency of maijuana use. Youths who perceive that their parents would ‘strongly disapprove’ of their use of illicit substances were much less likely to use substances. 100678

Host of events slated for annual parade By LISA SWEET Special to the Times
Nov. 11, 2018, marked the 100th anniversary of Armistice Day, which was the day the armistice was signed at Le Francport near Compiegne that ended fighting on land, sea and air in World War I between the Allies and Germany. The following year, the first anniversary of Armistice Day, was commemorated by President Woodrow Wilson and various parades and celebrations were held, thus marking the beginning of what was to become the national holiday known as Veteran’s Day here in America. On Nov. 11, 1919, Leavenworth had its very first parade marking the newly minted holiday that marked the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month that the armistice was signed. The headlines from the Leavenworth Times read, “Business will be Suspended in City Today. All to Join in the Welcome Home Celebration” and that was the start of one the nation’s oldest Veteran’s Day observances. This year, Nov.11 marks the centennial of our county’s 100th parade in downtown Leavenworth. The parade is one of the oldest in the nation and the largest parade west of the Mississippi River.

Secretary Driving Force For Annual Parade By LISA SWEET Special to the Times
Talking with Diana Smith, it’s easy to see how the past years of the Leavenworth County Veteran’s Day parade has gone off without a hitch. Her energy and spirit is at the forefront and as a member of the American Legion Ladies Auxiliary and wife of former airman first class James Allen Smith, her dedication to veterans has never wavered. This year marks the 30th year Smith has been with the official parade committee and the 20th she has served as the secretary. This job requires a steadfast commitment, ability to multi-task and immeasurable stamina for hard work. Every year, the parade committee begins meeting in August, but as secretary, Smith begins planning the January prior. Her job is a series of deadlines, relationships and coordination, all with military precision. She is in contact with all the key players, even as far up as the Pentagon when she secures permission to have a flyover for the parade. She also decides the
Diana Smith
parade lineup, arranges and recruits floats, makes sure all the marching bands are confirmed and secures their meeting points and transportation. She truly is the point person for every detail. While she is quick to say that she is not “in charge” and that everything is approved by the committee, it is clear that Smith is the glue that holds everything together and the “boots on the ground.” The parade is no small task, with an average running time of two hours 15 minutes and with a rough estimate of 15,000 spectators in attendance and more expected this year for the centennial, Smith
has been working full-throttle and she mentions that her phone never stops ringing from August through November each year. With so much hard work it is difficult for Smith to pinpoint her favorite part of planning and execution of the parade. But one of the events that historically happens is an emotional and uplifting part of the parade and occurs right after the parade pauses at 11 a.m. A flyover occurs, taps are played and a recruitment ceremony takes place. “My favorite memory has always been the swearing in of new local recruits. The crowd would go wild and their parents would be so proud,” she said. When she isn’t actively working on the parade, Smith is always thinking about how she can improve it for the next year. “I noticed years ago that people line up early, as early as 7:30 a.m. (The parade) starts at 10:30. I thought, maybe we need to entertain all these people,” she said. “So we started the tradition of hosting the Bill Welch Band. This year he
will begin around 8:30 a.m. in front of the Exchange Bank at 7th and Delaware. At the same time the Cody Choraliers will be performing between the Riverfront Community Center and the Heritage Center on Delaware and Esplanade, as well retired Staff Sgt. Rick Jackson, who will be performing at 4th and Cherokee.” Some newest addition will be five food vendors throughout the route. On hand for snacks will be the VFW with a cotton candy tent, Blackbelt BBQ, Midwest BBQ, Midos and The Melt. What’s more, the celebration this year for the centennial will begin Friday, Nov. 8 and run through Monday, Nov. 11 with all kinds of events. Smith is retiring from the committee this year but will remain as an adviser. She will be a tough act to follow, but she has laid the groundwork for more successful Veteran’s Day parades to come and this year will certainly be one for the history books.
Longtime Parade Director To End 53-Year Run By LISA SWEET Special to the Times
In 1966, 20-year-old Spc. 5 Charley Shoemaker had just returned to Leavenworth, Kansas, from fighting in the Vietnam War. The Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 56 quickly became his touchpoint and coincidentally they were looking for help and some young blood to represent them on the Leavenworth County’s Veteran’s Day parade committee. They presented the idea to Shoemaker and he said yes. Shoemaker’s deep appreciation of the town, county, nation and its veterans made it natural for him to sign on so quickly to the iconic parade. “I love what we do for our veterans and appreciate the military,” he said. “My father was in the Army and my stepson fought in the first Persian Gulf War.” His dedication is evident and 53

years later at the age of 73, Shoemaker is volunteering for his last Veteran’s Day parade and it will be Leavenworth County’s centennial celebration. Shoemaker has worked on the committee for 53 years and has been the executive director for 50 years. The parade committee is comprised of numerous groups all coming together that include local American Legions, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Vietnam Veterans of America, Disabled American Veterans, Fraternal Order of Eagles and Knights of Columbus. As executive chairman, it is Shoemaker’s responsibility to make sure that all the groups are equally represented and he acts as a conduit of information which includes planning and implementing events. When asked why he has stayed with the committee for all these years, he said, “People have relied upon me every year and I didn’t
Charley Shoemaker
want to let them down. I also believe in what we do and I’m very proud that we are one of the oldest parades in the nation and the biggest parade west of the Mississippi.”
Shoemaker went on to say, “Every year I’m proud to see all of the people that turn out for our parade and pay their respects to our veterans.” Over the past few years, the Leavenworth County Veteran’s Day parade averages 15,000 spectators that come from all over to include Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Missouri, Iowa, Colorado and Minnesota. He then divulged that he secured a flyover, to celebrate the centennial of the parade, of two A-10 Thunderbolts, also known as Warthogs, along the parade route at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11. Not only will that flyover be a paramount moment of the parade, but it will be a fitting send-off for one of Leavenworth’s finest veterans and dedicated citizens.
In Leavenworth, veterans and active duty military are honored on Veterans Day with the year’s largest downtown parade. Annually, despite the weather, downtown historic Leavenworth, KS, is filled with a patriotic public paying tribute to veterans and their sacrifices. Leavenworth is selected annually as a regional site for the Veterans Day observance by
the National Veterans Day Committee, Washington, DC. Leavenworth County Veterans Day Parade draws 12,000 to 15,000+ spectators annually. The Veterans Day Parade draws spectators not only from around Kansas but from Oklahoma, Nebraska, Missouri, Iowa, Colorado and Minnesota as well.
The Leavenworth County Veterans Day Parade Committee is comprised of the following organizations:
~ Byron H. Mehl American Legion Post ~ Andrew Newton American Legion Post ~ Lansing Memorial American Legion Post ~ George E. White Veterans of Foreign Wars Post ~ James Taylor Lansing Memorial Veterans of Foreign Wars Post ~ Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 75 ~ Disabled American Veterans Chapter 7 ~ Voiture 1163 - 40&8 ~ Fraternal Order of Eagles Aerie ~ Knight of Columbus Council
FLAG ETIQUETTE Parades and Saluting the Flag: All should rise when the US flag passes in a parade.

SMALL BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT: Marlow White Uniforms, Inc. NAME OF BUSINESS: Marlow White Uniforms, Inc. ADDRESS: 400 Seneca St., Leavenworth, KS, 66048 PHONE: 800-255-6136 NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES: About 50 HOURS: 8 a.m. to 6 p.m.
1. What is a brief history of your business? Marlow White Uniforms has specialized in military uniforms for more than 140 years. Marlow’s greatgrandfather immigrated to the U.S., settled in Florida and opened a small uniform shop in 1879. Marlow’s father split the business up after World War II and set Marlow up with a shop near Jacksonville, Florida. The business was a success but burned to the ground in 1955. Marlow lost everything. Marlow White took to the road, selling uniforms at military installations across the nation. Through his travels to Fort Sill, Oklahoma, Marlow met his future wife, a young widow named Halene Abbott. They married in 1968, and together developed the business as a telephone-based mail order business serving soldiers stationed worldwide. Fort Leavenworth invited Marlow White to open a store on post in 1971, so Marlow moved his business and his family to Leavenworth, Kansas. Sadly, Marlow died in 1987, but he left behind a healthy, growing business and a legendary name for quality, integrity, hard work and service. The business moved off post in the 1990s and
relocated to our current location in 2004. The company has expanded into new markets, such as first responders and cruise lines, and has strengthened existing markets with the highest quality and valued uniforms in the market. Yet through this growth, we strive to deliver “Excellence with Value” to each customer in a way that would make that committed tailor named Marlow White proud of us.
2. What makes your business unique? When you remember some of the most important events in your life, you remember what you are wearing. We do more than just sell uniforms. We do everything we can to make sure our customers’ uniforms are exactly what they need for the most memorable events in their lives.
3. What are some of the most popular items in your store?
Are you in need of anything at the moment? Mess uniforms are the military’s version of a tuxedo. We are the Army’s experts in mess uniforms and helping soldiers prepare for the formal events where they will be wearing these.
4. Will you be hosting any specials, events? There is a good chance we’ll be having a few
400 Seneca St., Leavenworth, KS, 66048 specials around Thanksgiving’s Black Friday/Cyber Monday. We also support Fort Leavenworth’s PAIR Day event each summer that welcomes the new CGSC students to the area.
5. Why is downtown Leavenworth a good place for a small business?
As a 140-year old company, downtown Leavenworth and its rich history are a good match for us. While the military and first responder uniforms are based on tradition, Marlow White, like Leavenworth, continue to grow and modernize to meet the expectations of those who need us. – Lisa Sweet
It’s all about the dessert and pie If you ask most people what food they crave when they think about their Thanksgiving feast, you’ll most likely hear the standards like turkey and stuffing. For me, it is all about the dessert and pie. From pumpkin, apple, pecan or custard pie, a Thanksgiving meal wouldn’t be complete without one. Pies can be very hit-andmiss since they are personal to people. Most people only eat a certain pie this time a year and associate many memories with it. So if bakLISA SWEET ing pies fills you with dread and just becomes another item on your already stressful seasonal to-do list, then pre-made is the way to go. With so many options out there, it is my duty to help you find a truly great delicacy to impress your family and friends and I didn’t have to look any further than Leavenworth. One of my favorite places for handmade pies, cakes and fudge is the Kansas Country Store. Sherry Brown, owner at Kansas Country Store, is already taking orders. Brown is the avid pie maker for her family but still purchases pies from her store and firmly stands behind her products.
Her family history states that her great-grandmother had a pecan pie recipe that was made for every family holiday and was her father’s favorite. One year, Sherry wasn’t able to make the pie from scratch so she served their store’s pecan pie, to which her father exclaimed, “Sherry, you are off the hook, you don’t have to make my grand-
SHOOFLY PIE • Blindbake your favorite nine-inch crust. • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. • Combine in a bowl: one cup flour, two-thirds cup packed dark brown sugar, five tablespoons unsalted butter, softened. Mash with a fork or pastry blender until crumbly. • In a separate bowl beat until blended: one cup light molasses, one large egg, one tablespoon baking soda. Then stir in one cup boiling water. Stir half the crumb mixture into the molasses mixture and pour into the crust. • Sprinkle with remaining crumb mixture. Bake for 10 minutes then reduce temperature to 350 and bake until edges are firm, about 20-30 minutes more. Let it cool completely before serving. It goes wonderfully with a sweetened whipped cream.
mother’s pie anymore.” According to Sherry, that is truly a testament to how fresh the pies are, how delicious the flaky crust tastes and how packed it is with delectable filling. The pies aren’t made in-house, but supplied to them in small batches by a local artisan from Kansas City. That means they are made with fresh ingredients and have no preservatives. This year, the Kansas Country Store is offering the following seasonal pie flavors: pecan pie, apple pie, pumpkin pie, maple pecan, Dixie pie (which is a pecan pie with a dark chocolate layer) and southern sweet potato pie. Also available is a fudgy, gluten-free dark chocolate rum cake, and a special fall pumpkin fudge and a red velvet fudge for December. The pies are nine inches and packed with filling. Cost of the pies range from $12 to $16 and will serve six to eight people. You can call in your order or fill out an order sheet in the store. Sherry places pie orders before noon on Mondays and Thursdays and deliveries are Tuesdays and Fridays. So whether you bake your own or purchase a pre-made, having a successful Thanksgiving is as easy as pie. If you are inclined to bake your own, here is my holiday gift to you. This recipe for shoofly pie is one of my favorite pies to eat and super easy to make. I’ve adapted this recipe from the “Joy of Cooking.”
