Back to School

T

hroughout the year, there are natural times for new beginnings. New Year’s, birthdays and the back-to-school season are all great times to evaluate and potentially hit refresh on our lives. The latter will soon be upon us, as parents scramble to find notebooks and folders at reasonable prices and children eagerly await learning who their teachers will be and which friends they’ll have in their classes. It’s a season I fondly look forward to, despite having graduated from all of the schooling I’ll ever complete (most likely). Maybe it’s because the weather starts to shift into the cooler temperatures of fall, but I still feel the excitement of a new chapter every time the back-to-school season comes around. With that excitement comes a reinvigorated feeling of wanting to get stuff done. House projects, specifically, suddenly feel like a priority. All summer long I’ve been hoping to reorganize my closet, buy a new couch for our living room, and put some of my baby’s outgrown items into storage. But, as most summers go, my weekends have been dedicated to visiting friends, going to the beach, or attending a myriad of weddings and baby showers. It’s been a blast! But the natural reset of the back-to-school season has made my household projects feel more important once again. If you, too, are experiencing a newfound motivation to get things accomplished, this issue of Smart Living is a great resource to get you started. Maybe your current household projects have a greater scope than mine, and you’re looking to unclog your gutters or repair your aging roof. Maybe you’ve been feeling sick of your internet/cable provider for months, and you’re finally ready to do something about it. Or, maybe you’ve been feeling lonely lately and you’re not sure how to move past it. There’s a lot of new content in this issue to help you live smarter. (I’ve personally learned so much from editing all of it!) I hope it’s helpful to you, and that you have an excellent back-to-school season. ❚ Lindsey Lukas Senior Editor

Experts Can Tell: Is Your Roof ‘Healthy’? By Peggy Werner

S

evere weather can adversely affect everything about a house, whether or not you can see the damage. “Some signs of an aging roof are obvious, but it takes a trained eye to see hail damage, especially if the hail was small. You have to feel it more than see it,” says Andy Bufalo, founder and CEO of Bufalo Contracting, 3466 Colony Bay Dr. Damaged shingles can lead to water leaks, which can cause mold and wood rot, and in severe cases, harm a roof’s basic structure. Other problems occur with time. Every roof ages differently, depending on the roof style, how much sun exposure there is, the amount of shade provided by trees, the type of shingles on the home and how the roof was installed, he says. Obvious problems caused by weather or aging can be found by going into the attic to look for water leaks, discoloration

and warped wood. Oftentimes, homeowners are not aware of problems until water actually gets into the home. Shingles that are buckling, missing, and have bare spots or curled edges are signs a roof has met its life expectancy. Dark spots and streaks can mean moss or algae is growing on the roof and certain kinds can grow under the shingles, causing them to raise up, allowing water to seep into exposed areas. One of the biggest problems in the Midwest is ice damming, when snow melts and then freezes, causing a buildup of ice and no way for water to escape as temperatures warm. Homeowners can help prevent ice damming by using a roof rake, specially designed to get snow off of single-story homes from the ground. In other cases, Bufalo has a steam machine to melt the ice off safely. Chipping away at the ice, salting or power washing the

roof is not recommended, he says. Gutters are also an important part of maintaining roof health. In dry conditions, clogged or damaged gutters are a fire hazard. Clogged gutters and downspouts also cause rainwater to overflow, which causes substantial damage to a building, landscaping and basements. Bufalo Contracting provides services in commercial and residential roofing, siding, gutters, windows, decks and restoration for homes in northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin.

Inspiration & Worship

Got Joy? G

od wants our lives to be abundant with fruit of the spirit. The more we follow in Jesus’ footsteps, the more fruit we reap – such as love, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control – and joy. (Galatians 5:22-23, NIV). Joy is much bigger than “happiness,” which comes and goes according to circumstances beyond our control. The word “joy” (and “rejoice”) is most often translated from the Greek word “chara,” (pronounced khar-áh), in the New Testament, and is found in the NIV version 155 times, appearing in nearly every book. Jesus and joy go hand in hand. Before Jesus was born, the angels declared that his coming would bring people great joy. John the Baptist, while still in his mother Elizabeth’s womb, “leaped for joy,” when he heard Mary tell Elizabeth the news of her pregnancy. Joy in no way depends upon circumstances. Paul wrote about his great joy from a dank prison cell. He also wrote about the overflowing joy of the Christians in Macedonia, despite their “severe trials” and “extreme poverty” (2 Cor. 8:2). To Christians in Thessalonica, he writes, “…in spite of severe suffering, you welcomed the message [of salvation] with joy given by the Holy Spirit.” (I Thess. 1:6). Clearly joy is linked to Christ, not to circumstance. It’s a gift from God that can’t be stolen from us unless we relinquish it. Christians may bring joy to one another, when they live in faith. “I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in truth,” John writes to a friend in Third John, verse 4. Jesus taught us, by example, to value joy. “For the joy set before him, he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God,” (Hebrews 12:2 NIV). Above all, joy is a gift to us from God. “You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has set you above your companions by anointing you with the oil of joy” (Hebrews 1:9). Got Joy? ❚ 14

Your Kitchen

Savor the Bold Flavors of Summer

B

ringing your family together for a meal that tastes like summer is what the season is all about. If you’re spending an evening firing up the grill, flipping on the oven, forming a homemade salad or anything in-between, the time spent together enjoying warm weather flavors is what everyone truly craves.

To deliver a delightfully bold and zesty flavor with every bite, try these Summer Shrimp and Squash Kebabs, an easy way to bring loved ones together both before and during the meal. Put an adult in charge of heating the grill while the entire family works together to marinate a concoction of shrimp, tomatoes, corn, red onion, squash and zucchini before threading onto skewers that are ready to hit the grates.

Summer Shrimp and Squash Kebabs

Servings: 4 (2 skewers per serving) 8 wooden skewers (12 inches each) 1 cup Newman’s Own Garlic Vinaigrette & Marinade, plus additional for serving 16 large shrimp, peeled and deveigned 16 cherry tomatoes

2 1 2 2

ears fresh corn, each cut into 1-inch pieces large red onion, cut into 1-inch wedges yellow squash, sliced 1/2-inch thick zucchini, sliced 1/2-inch thick

Soak skewers in water at least 30 minutes. In a large bowl, combine vinaigrette, shrimp, cherry tomatoes, corn, red onion, yellow squash and zucchini; marinate 30 minutes-1 hour. Preheat grill to medium heat. Skewer pieces of cherry tomato, shrimp, corn, zucchini, red onion and yellow squash on wooden skewer. Repeat with remaining ingredients and skewers. Grill kebabs about 8 minutes, turning frequently until shrimp and veggies are cooked. Serve with additional vinaigrette. ❚ Source: Family Features

Affordable Fun at Winnebago County Fair By Lindsey Lukas, senior editor

A

fter two years of making adjustments due to COVID-19, The Winnebago County Fair is back to its full glory and then some Aug. 17-21 at the Winnebago County Fair Grounds, 500 W. First St., Pecatonica, Ill. “We have all of the 4-H events back this year,” says Michelle McCabe, office manager for the fairgrounds. “That is huge after not being able to have full participation over the past two years. “For many families, the Winnebago County Fair represents the end of summer,” McCabe continues. “It’s the last outing before school begins. The last opportunity to see the animals and projects that the 4-H kids have put so much work into for the past several months.” In addition to 4-H activities, popular fair events include a carnival, music and other live forms of entertainment. New to

the fair this year is FlippenOut Productions, a high-energy trampoline show that performs all over the world, says McCabe. Three shows are scheduled daily Wednesday through Saturday. “We also have the World of Wonders, which brings the nostalgia of American fairs with sword swallowers, fire eaters and contortionists just to name a few,” McCabe adds. Other can’t-miss events include the Xtreme Roughstock Rodeo at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, tractor pulls at 1 and 6:30 p.m. on Friday, and bands such as Shotgun Jane at 9 p.m. on Friday and Infinity at 9 p.m. on Saturday. There’s also vendors and entertain-

ment in Moss Hall, which include singer/ songwriter Lola Blu at 6:30 p.m. Friday and the Winnebago County Fair Queen Pageants at 6 p.m. both Wednesday and Thursday. A board of 27 directors have volunteered their time to make the Winnebago County Fair a reality, along with a handful of other staff, McCabe says.


Right in Our Region “We also have superintendents who put a lot of time and effort into running their livestock and non-livestock departments along with the 4-H, which is a huge part of the fair,” she adds. “Without all of them, and the wonderful people who come out to spend a day or more at the Winnebago County Fair, this event would not be possible.” Fair hours are noon to midnight Wed.-Sat and noon-6 p.m. on Sunday. General admission tickets to the fair vary in price from day to day. On Wednesday, Aug. 17, admission costs $5 for adults and $3 for children ages 9-12, while seniors ages 60 and above and children ages 8 and under may enter free. Bring two non-perishable food items to benefit the Rockford Rescue Mission for one free admission. On Thursday, Aug. 18, admission costs $5 for adults and $3 for seniors, while children ages 12 and under may enter free. On Friday, Aug. 19 and Saturday,

Aug. 20, admission costs $7 for adults and $5 for seniors and children ages 9-12, while children ages 8 and under may enter free. On Sunday, Aug. 21, admission costs $5 for adults and $3 for seniors and children ages 9-12, while children ages 8 and under may enter free. Mega pass tickets are available for purchase in advance of the fair at Kelley’s Market Mobile stores and will not be sold at the gate. Mega passes include all-day and all-night rides for $25. They are good

for one day only, any day of your choice, and include gate admission. Most of the events at the fair are free, with a few special events costing between $5-10 extra. Carnival tickets are “pay one price” each day. “It’s a fun and affordable opportunity to get family and friends together to enjoy good, quality entertainment, and for parents and grandparents to maybe relive a little bit of their youth,” McCabe says.

Your Technology

Save on Phone, Internet, TV and Solar By Peggy Werner

T

he pandemic has taken a toll on many local businesses, some having to close, and others having to

pivot. Owner and General Manager Charles Zambrano of EZ Satellite and Wireless and EZ Solar has always strived to be ahead of the trends, giving customers what they need and want at the best prices available. And that hasn’t changed. What has changed is he is now working remotely from home and decided to close his North Second Street location in Loves Park. “I just want to let people know I’m there for them, but I’m not where I used to be,” he says. “I am more accessible to my customers now by being there when they need me rather than keeping hours.” When the store’s foot traffic dropped by 95 percent during the pandemic, Zam-

brano decided he needed to change with the times. He services customers by putting together packages to save money on TV, internet and phone. EZ Satellite & Wireless is an authorized dish network retailer and licensed to offer services from a long list of providers. “I help people save money by combining services, but not from the same provider. People are paying too much for phone, internet and television services by using just one company,” he says. And now, with the trend toward cleaner energy, he is also helping people save money through solar power, whether they buy or lease the panels. In either case, no money down is required, he says. “Using clean energy saves electric costs for homeowners and is good for the environment. Installing solar panels in a home is the equivalent of planting 100 trees a year to reduce carbon emissions.

It’s a phenomenal impact on the environment and helps people combat inflation and energy rate increases,” he adds. EZ Solar will help with permits, applications, and obtaining a loan for those who qualify. The product is maintenancefree and has a 25-year warranty. Federal Investment Tax Credits and state rebates are available. For more information on products or to set up an appointment, contact Zambrano by calling 815-994-7336 or visit his websites at EZsatellitenow.com and EZsolarenergynow.com. ❚

Your Health

Letting a Caregiver Reinvigorate Your Life

O

By Peggy Werner ne elderly man’s wife died and he eventually didn’t want to live anymore. A women was losing touch with reality, but she could still share her love of history and geography. Two men had served in the same squadron during World War II, but didn’t know each other. In every case, an elderly person’s life was changed for the better because of a caregiver from Comfort Keepers, 4855 E. State St. “The key to a good match is shared interests and putting in the effort to make a relationship good and lasting,” says Lucretia Ristin, co-owner with Mark Podemski. In the case of the elderly man, he resisted having a caregiver, but then realized the benefits. “He came alive again because a caregiver showed him life was worth living,” Ristin says.

The woman had the same caregiver every day for seven years. They became armchair travelers and learned about different cultures and countries by going to ethnic restaurants together. The two U.S. Air Force veterans had the same pictures, told the same stories, and had the same caregiver. She arranged for the men to meet and they became friends. Comfort Keepers’ caregivers assist with all non-medical needs, such as light housekeeping, preparing meals, companionship, bathing, grooming, mobility assistance, bathroom needs, laundry, transportation to appointments, shopping, events and more. Although most people serviced by Comfort Keepers have at least one medical condition, others seek out help just because they are tired and can’t handle the workload any longer, or because they are lonely, which can lead to depression

and a lack of interest in self-care, Ristin says. Comfort Keepers employs about 50 caregivers and is always looking to hire more. Caregivers have to pass an extensive background check, drug test, and show they are caring and empathetic individuals, Ristin adds. Caregivers can work part time or full time. Future plans include opening an office in Janesville. The company also has a Freeport office. All locations service northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. For more information, go to comfortkeepers.com or call 815-229-9100. ❚
