Ingredients: • ½ head of cauliflower, stalk removed • ¼ cup grated parmesan • 1 tsp turmeric • 1 tsp Italian seasoning • ¼ tsp of salt • 1 egg
• ½ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese • 2 red bell peppers • 1 tbsp of olive oil + 1 tsp for drizzling on peppers and garlic • 2-3 garlic cloves with peel • 5 sprigs fresh basil • 1 tsp cornstarch (or potato starch)
Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Wash and pat dry the bell peppers and place them and the unpeeled garlic cloves (this prevents the garlic from burning) on a baking sheet. 2. Drizzle on 1 tsp of oil and a dash of salt, then bake peppers and garlic for 30 minutes on the top rack until peppers look soft and brown. 3. While peppers bake, pulse cauliflower in food processor until it’s crumbly and a rice-like texture. 4. Line baking sheet with parchment paper, then spread riced cauliflower in a single layer and bake for 15 minutes in the same oven, on the rack below the bell peppers and garlic. 5. Check on peppers and garlic. Take out of the oven once ready and let cool for 10 minutes. 6. Peel and trim stems off peppers and peel garlic. Add peppers, garlic, olive oil and cornstarch to food processor and run on hitgh speed until mixture is finely pureed and smooth. 7. In a small pot, stir bell pepper sauce for 10 to 15 minutes on low heat until the sauce thickens; set aside. 8. Take cauliflower out of oven. After it cools, transfer to a clean cheesecloth or dishtowel. Squeeze out excess moisture and discard water. 9. I n a large bowl, add riced cauliflower, spices, parmesan, salt and egg. Mix well. 10. Press dough into a circle onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper at ¼-inch thickness. 11. Bake for 30 minutes at 400°F until golden. Flip crust over and bake again for 10 more minutes. 12. Remove from oven and add roasted red pepper sauce, mozzarella and basil. Bake for an additional 5 to 10 minutes until cheese melts. Find more recipes at kidneycommunitykitchen.ca.

pet odours D
ogs, cats, birds, and lizards have evolved from wild animals and outdoor companions to become beloved, largely domesticated members of the family. The number of pets in homes across the country continues to grow. According to Statista, as of March 2017, 94.2 million cats and 89.7 million dogs were estimated to live in the United States as pets. Canada’s Pet Wellness report estimates that there
are approximately 7.9 million cats and 5.9 million dogs in Canada. Over time, pet owners grow accustomed to their pets’ antics, messes and even their odours. Dealing with smells is par for the course for pet owners, and many become desensitized to certain common smells. But when company is on the way or people are thinking about selling their homes, pet odors must be addressed. Even though it will take effort, homeowners can freshen their homes and eliminate unpleasant pet-related smells.

Cats and dogs can leave behind fur, dander, food messes, and more. Eliminating the debris that pets create can reduce odors. Sweeping, vacuuming and mopping floors can help as well.

around the house. Be sure to clean up pet waste messes promptly. Baking soda and vinegar solutions are all-natural ways to clean up and can help remove urine odours more readily. Also, look for safe deodorizing cleaning products that can be used on carpeting, flooring and upholstery.
purchase an air purifier
Air purifiers can help remove odours and allergens from the air.
They’re relatively inexpensive and can be placed in rooms that pets frequent.
wash pet blankets and beds
Launder pet beds, cloth toys, blankets, and any other items that pets lounge on. Sweat, saliva and dander can cause these fabrics to become stinky, and, in turn, make the house smell worse.

keep pets clean
Most pets are very good at selfgrooming, but can benefit from a spa treatment once in awhile. Dogs that spend ample time outdoors or frequently get wet and dirty may need routine baths. Ask a professional groomer what he or she recommends to address potent pet odours. Neutralizing pet odours takes effort, but it can make for a more pleasant-smelling home environment. ■ — Metro Creative

M
oving an elderly loved one can be tough. No one wants to upset that person and everyone wants the move to go as smoothly as possible. This can seem like mission impossible. The children and families of the Baby Boomer generation – people born between 1946 and 1960 – are already helping their loved ones move into downsized or elderly assistance accommodations and often are not emotionally prepared for the task at hand. Senior loved ones can be very set in their ways and often are not well equipped to express their emotional frustrations in a constructive way as moving day draws closer. It all can seem like a daunting task. Over the years, we have packed and moved many seniors and the important thing is to stay organized, be patient, calm and respectful throughout the entire moving process. If you are moving a senior loved one into a retirement facility or a condo, you should first contact the management to find out what they are allowed to bring in, appropriate moving hours and if they have any tips specific to their facility to help smooth the moving process. Remember the following:
organize, begin packing weeks in advance
If your loved one is moving from a large home to a one-bedroom condo, there will be more furniture than needed. Get a floor plan of the new space and help your senior plan the space with their favourite furnishings, then help them decide what to do with the left overs. If the item is a family heirloom and cannot be accommodated in the new space, suggest giving it to a close family member like a favourite grandchild.
sort before you pack
Seniors tend to collect things they don’t need or use. Be sensitive when suggesting to get rid of possessions. Ask if they use the item and if they would mind if you donated it to raise money for the Salvation Army, for example. Start packing early to avoid feeling overwhelmed as moving day draws closer.
pack, clean as you go
When helping sort and pack your senior’s belongings keep in mind that their eyesight and reduced mobility prevents them from doing regular chores and can result in poor housekeeping habits. Instead of commenting, offer to clean as you pack and try not to be judgmental.
you will need more time than you think
Allow enough time so your loved one doesn’t feel rushed. Sorting through years of stuff is difficult and sometimes emotionally painful. Allow your loved one time to say goodbye. If they take longer to clean out the desk drawer because they found a stack of pictures, let them take the time to walk down memory lane. This is a very important part of the process. Be patient and listen to their life stories, there will come a time you will be glad you did.
wrap small items in coloured paper
This prevents items like knickknacks from becoming lost or mistakenly thrown out.
label boxes on top and sides
Make sure to mark the top and sides of boxes as they’re packed and write in large letters to make it easier
EXTRAS
for your loved one to read. Make sure to label boxes containing breakable or sentimental items as ‘fragile’.
pack all electronics in the original boxes
Otherwise, use low-static bubble wrap when packing these items.
use packing paper
When wrapping fine china and precious items, do not use newsprint because the ink can bleed.
seal with packing tape
This makes it easier to stack and protect your senior’s belongings.
use boxes designed for items you are packing
Invest in dish packs for dishes and wardrobe boxes for clothing. Wardrobe boxes make it easy for seniors to access their clothing on hangers.
check unwanted clothing before donating
It’s a good idea to sort unwanted clothing for donation prior to moving. Before donating any gently worn unwanted clothing, check pockets for valuables. Seniors often hide small valuable items like jewelry or cash in the pockets of suit jackets or shoes and forget where they hid it.
make your loved one’s new space feel familiar
Take pictures and colour samples of the inside of their current home. Try to decorate the new space and place objects in a similar way, so that their new space will feel like the old one. Be as detailed as you can, from arranging the bedroom furniture to placing family pictures on the bureau. This will help make the new surroundings feel like home.
