Flower recently released her 10th album, “When My Bluebird Sings,� this time on her own label, Bluesette Records. “This CD is a departure stylistically from my previous recordings,� Flower says. “The CD is a mix of lap slide instrumentals and guitar pieces with vocals, all original. Some of these tunes

have been rumbling around in my head for quite a while and seemed well-suited for a solo project. Many of you have asked for more solo and more slide — so here it is, the raw and unadorned. Enjoy.� )ORZHUœV LPPHQVH ¿QJHUpicking guitar and lap-slide prowess is soulful and meter-perfect, a deft blend of the inventive, the dexterous and the mesmerizing.

NOTES FROM THE EDITOR

Fall is all about pumpkins and cider To celebrate the fall boat across the lake; then, on

season, I recently went pumpkin picking with some friends. We decided to visit Lakeview Farms.

Located off U.S. Highway 26 in North Plains near Hillsboro, the farm is, admittedly, a bit of a drive. But if you plan, you can have a fun day trip full of seasonal activities. The sweet smell of hot kettle corn greets you as you make your way from the parking lot to the admission booth. We paid our tickets ($5 for the Corn Maze; $4 for the Pumpkin Patch with $1 off your purchase), grabbed a bag of that irresistible kettle corn, and headed into the corn maze. Lakeview Farms changes the layout of the maze every year. The goal is to navigate the twists, turns and dead ends to ¿QG WKH ¿YH FKHFNSRLQWV HDFK one includes a different hole punch to mark your ticket. Once you’ve gathered the square, triangle, clover, diamond and moon, backtrack to the exit and pick a prize. After conquering the maze, it was time for the main event: pumpkin picking. To get to the patch, you can choose to ride a mini train or a paddle-wheeled

your return trip, ride the opposite mode of transportation back. The train and boat are fun additions and make the experience memorable. At the pumpkin patch, wheelbarrows stand ready, waiting to be piled high. Classic orange pumpkins line the front of the area, and more colorful varieties grow in back. We strolled through the patch seeking our favorites: a huge orange beauty to make a jack-o’-lantern; a white ghost

pumpkin; a deep orange Cinderella pumpkin; two warty squashes and a gorgeous One Too Many pumpkin, with its orange veins over a creamy background. Back at the main Snack and Gift Shop, a large copse of evergreens offered a welcome respite from the autumn sun. We took advantage of the pumpkin washing station before paying. Lakeview Farms also offers pony rides, face painting and a small petting zoo for the kids. After driving back home to Astoria and dropping our pumpkins off, we continued east to my friend’s farm in Knappa to work hard on another classic seasonal activity: making fresh apple cider. We worked those apples: picking them from the tree, a quick wash in a bucket, then it ZDV DQ DVVHPEO\ OLQH RI HI¿-

The saccharine scent of ripe apples hung in the air as the setting sun cast a glow around us. We ended up with about eight gallons of apple cider — a perfect reward.

Ted and Wendy Osborne moved to Astoria in 2007. Ted, a retired architect, designed his Astoria home, which was built by Astoria master craftsman Ed Overbay in 2009.

Retired architect adds personal touch to Astoria

“We moved here for the climate. I like fog and rain; I want shade, lack of sun.â€? With that improbable statement, Ted Osborne tells of the move he and his wife, Wendy, made to Astoria. “We were looking for a small town after 30 years in Los Angeles because of Ted’s career,â€? says Wendy. Ted was a successful architect, but the bright sun was going to kill him — literally. Ted’s fair complexion made him prey to skin cancer. They began looking for a place to live in the Northwest and eventually settled on Astoria. It wasn’t just the weather, though, or the scenery — the house they built has a striking view of the Columbia — it was the people. “We were looking for people with thoughts and values, not just things,â€? says Wendy. “We, in fact, have found just that,â€? Ted agrees. “We meet SHRSOH ZKR ZH OLNHG LPPHGLDWHO\ RQO\ WR Âż QG RXW ODWHU WKDW WKH\ DUH DFFRPSOLVKHG LQ VRPH Âż HOG ´ Ted retired in 2006, found Astoria a year later, and shortly

In 2012, Ted found himself retired, and he and Wendy were living in a house they loved, in a place that perfectly suited them. Wendy loved working in the garden, both of them had become involved in the Lower Columbia Preservation Society, and Ted had found a satisfying and creative hobby. What more could they possibly want? As it turned out, what they needed was a rundown commercial building in downtown Astoria. The couple purchased the Allen Building at 10th and Commercial streets. “I had been watching it for a couple of years,â€? Ted says. It seemed to be in a world of hurt, but I thought there was a real good building underneath.â€? Local preservationists assured him he was right, and there were photographs of the building as it appeared when built in 1924. What he did not know was the extent of the harm done Ted Osborne works on a ceramic piece in by earlier remodels. “Ev- his studio at his Astoria home.

Overbay worked on the Allen Building, but the Osbornes did much of the work themselves. “It was fun, it was challenging,â€? Ted says, “but we had to just push through.

The Osbornes are considering the possibility of restoring another derelict building, “but it has to be a diminutive size,â€? says Ted. “We want a personal touch.â€? “We’re not building owners,â€? he says, “It’s a hobby. I’m a retired architect with a passion for buildings.â€? The Osbornes are also contributing to their new hometown: “We’re trying to make a difference in the way the downtown looks and works.â€?

Astoria International Film Festival

Friday, Saturday & Sunday, Oct. 17, 18 & 19

The Astoria International Film Festival invites the public to its annual social at 8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 18 at KALA. This year — in honor of the classic Billy Wilder film starring Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemon and Tony Curtis — “Some Like it Hot� is the theme. The 1959 comic classic features two guys who need to get out of town, disguise themselves as women and join an all-girl band. This year’s social, How Hot Can it Get, will screen the film as a silent backdrop Saturday, but festival-goers can watch “Some Like It Hot� in all its comic glory Sunday. Attendees are encouraged to take the opportunity to dress up: Wear vintage clothing, dare to cross dress, or just do what makes you feel good. If you are so inspired, a Marilyn Monroe persona may garner a prize. The event will see complimentary hors d’oeuvres by Astoria Coffeehouse & Bistro, a nohost bar, and lots of great era music to swing and boogie-woogie to. Talk about your favorite films of the festival and enjoy general convivially and socializing.

Movie screenings at the Liberty Theater 1203 Commercial St., Astoria Tickets: $5 Tickets available at the Liberty Theater box office and ticketswest.com For more information: www.goaiff.com

A citizen uprising to recall Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker collides with the Tea Party-aligned “Americans for Prosperity,� a group founded by two of the world’s richest men: David and Charles Koch. Republican working class voters find themselves in the crosshairs of their party and its billionaire backers in “Citizen Koch,� a 2013 documentary by Carl Deal and Tia Lessin.

Did you know? The Motion Picture Association of America production code rejected “Some Like it Hot� because of its double entendre, cross-dressing, vague allusions to homosexuality and general naughtiness. The studio (United Artists) released the movie anyway, and it was a smash hit. Adhering to the code was voluntary, technically, but it had long been the accepted wisdom that a movie released without the MPAA’s seal of approval would be a flop, either because theaters wouldn’t play it, or audiences wouldn’t watch it. More films pushed the limits in the 1960s, and the code was finally abandoned and replaced with the rating system familiar to us now.

A classic 1959 comedy film starring Marilyn Monroe, “Some Like It Hot� is about two Chicago musicians, Joe and Jerry, who must dress and pass as women to escape a gangster.

Golden Star Chinese Restaurant A less-than-stellar experience awaits at this Astoria eatery

I

If you are a regular reader of my column (thank you!), you probably feel I’ve beaten to death my gripe about Chinese food; just like a lot of Mexican restaurants serve Tex-Mex, many Chinese restaurants serve an Americanized version of Cantonese food. As I’ve said before, I don’t fault these restaurants in either case, as they’re clearly giving the public what they want. Just because I like authentic Mexican food, for example, doesn’t mean I don’t sometimes get a hankering for chicken fajitas served in that sizzling pan. The same can be said for my feelings about Chinese food. Although I have a feeling what I’m eating isn’t terribly authentic — and, let’s be honest, one Chinese restaurant often tastes pretty similar to another — sometimes that’s what I’m in the mood for. Fried shrimp. Barbecued pork. Sweet and sour chicken. Yes, even that. There are about a half dozen Chinese restaurants between the Long Beach Peninsula and the stretch of the Oregon coastline that is in my jurisdiction. I have not tried them all, so I will not make a blanket statement about their quality, but I’ll instead say that I’ve tried most of them and what you’re often getting is good ol’ American Chinese food. And that’s okay. There are even some shining stars in that group — unfortunately, the Golden Star isn’t it. When I dine out as The Mouth, I spend a lot of time perusing the menu, so my usual routine is to place an appetizer order with the server, and then I place my order for entrées

when he or she returns with the appetizer. In this case, I ordered barbecued pork and fried shrimp as appetizers, and the dish took a long time to show up at the table (20 minutes or so — and yes, I keep track of these things with a watch). When the server arrived back at the table, and I told her I was ready to order entrées, she said she would be back in just a moment to take the order and then disappeared for another 10 minutes. When our entrées eventually arrived (40 minutes from when I ordered them), I was fed up (and not from food). Since I had ordered four or ¿ve entrées, the server put them all on a wheeled cart with shelves, and a few of the entrées were on the

bottom shelf, just inches above the Àoor. This just didn’t seem right to me. For the most part, the dishes were mediocre. The pork fried rice was the tastiest of the entrées, with bits of barbecued pork and peas. The sweet and sour chicken was also ¿ne, exactly what you would normally expect. One of my favorite dishes at a Chinese restaurant is moo shu pork. A sort of stir fry of pork, scrambled eggs, cabbage, mushrooms, bean pods and scallions, the dish usually has a bit of a charred taste to it and in our American tradition is heaped into tortilla-like pancakes, often accompanied by hoisin sauce. In this case, the moo shu itself had an overwhelmingly smoky Àavor — owing to what,

Golden Star Chinese

HOURS: 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Saturday; noon to 10 p.m. Sunday.

ATMOSPHERE: Clean, but desperately in need of an update.

Rating:

PRICE: Although prices are in line with what I would expect to pay, with entrées between $8 and $13, any price is too high for food that is sub-par.

ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS: There are a few vegetable-only dishes or dishes that could be prepared without meat, such as vegetable sub-gum.

599 Bond St. Astoria, OR 97103 503-325-6260

SERVICE: Though our server was friendly, she got our order wrong, and the food took a long time to come out of the kitchen.

DRINKS: Coffee, traditional Chinese tea, soft drinks and a full bar.

I’m not sure. The hoisin sauce also had a bit of a chemical taste and was ice cold. When added to the moo shu and the pancake, the sauce brought the overall temperature of the dish down too low for my liking. The spicy Mongolian beef was indeed spicy, but the strips of beef were tough and leathery, which made eating the dish a chore. Chicken sub-gum was passable, although the sauce had a strange, gel-like consistency. 'uring our meal, I Àagged down our server for another pot of tea, extra silverware settings, and some soy sauce (which wasn’t on the table), but she never returned until we clearly had coats on, were standing, and seemed ready for the check. Any time I feel that a restaurant deserves less than three stars, I pay them a second visit. This is based on the idea that everyone has an “off” day, and deserves a second chance. Unfortunately, my experience on the return visit was just as bad as the ¿rst, although I will admit that the service was faster, perhaps because I was by myself. My goal as The Mouth is to inform readers about what they can expect of a given restaurant before they spend their hard-earned dollars on dining out. When I give a restaurant a great review, it often seems to work in their favor as unexpected advertising. The letters I sometimes receive lead me to believe that negative reviews also impact a business. Please know that I don’t enjoy giving anyone a negative review, but the fact remains that if a restaurant has poor service and lackluster food, you deserve to know. KEY TO RATINGS

What gem will you find at the Warrenton Community Library?

A GLIMPSE INSIDE An occasional feature by MATT LOVE

Warrenton Community Library One never knows what could unfold when you enter the realm of a library book sale on the Oregon Coast. I can honestly say that I’ve found some of the most influential books of my life in these venues, by browsing with absolutely no agenda in mind. You look, you peruse, you comb through the shelves without an Amazon algorithm marketing your mind, and then there it is: an unknown weathered book by Rachel Carson, Rebecca Soltnit, Upton Sinclair, or about Bing Crosby. It happened to me again not too long ago, at the Warrenton Community Library in Hammond, one of the funkiest, quaintest, coziest and friendliest coastal libraries I’ve ever visited. There I was, surrounded by amiable volunteers, giddy about the prospect of just discovering a cassette tape (for a quarter!) of a 1954 episode of Groucho Marx’s classic television show “You Bet Your Life,� when my eye landed on a detective novel by James Ellroy, “Brown’s Requiem.� The title shocked me because I’m a huge fan of Ellroy and erroneously thought I had read all of his books. A day later, I devoured the slim novel in one sitting and immediately pledged to write a hard boiled detective story set on the Oregon Coast, in the dead of rainy winter, where the dissipated protagonist is trying to discover the identity of the rich developer trying to privatize Oregon’s ocean beaches. As soon as it starts raining, I’ll begin work on it. I would have never attempted such a project had I not visited this library and paid 50 cents for the Ellroy novel. Buying a book from the Warrenton Library can do a lot more than inspire a local writer. Proceeds from sales help fund the library’s operations and future expansion. Library manager Nettie-Lee Calog told me multiple efforts are now underway to raise the necessary monies to add space for more books and computers to better serve the community. All dedicated readers and library patrons can assist with this noble cause by visiting the library and purchasing books and other media.

The library is open from 1 to 5 p.m. Monday to Friday and from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday. Matt Love lives in Astoria and is author/editor of 12 books about Oregon. They are available at independent bookstores or through www.nestuccaspitpress.com. His book about Astoria comes out next summer.

Poured straight out of the late 19th century by way of a 21st century resurrection, the Alsternixe is an Albatross original playing off the Martinez, the precursor to the Martini. Named for a German bark fated to learn the true meaning of Cape Disappointment when it ran aground there in 1903, the Alsternixe is a fine example of Albatross’ pre-Prohibition philosophy, harkening back to a time when spirits were meant to celebrated and explored, not masked in tangy mixers or diluted to death with sodas. Be careful, though: this cocktail is so delicately balanced with the additions of the various bitters and the maraschino liqueur, it is easy to forget that what you are imbibing is essentially a full glass of booze. 2 ounces Old Tom Gin* ž ounce dry vermouth Âź ounce Luxardo, an Italian maraschino liqueur A dash of each: • Fee Brothers’ Gin Barrel-Aged Orange Bitters • Orange flower water • Regans’ Orange Bitters No. 6 Ice Lemon twist for garnish Shake all the liquids with ice in a cocktail shaker until cold. Strain into a cocktail glass and serve up with a twist of lemon. —Recipe and history courtesy of Eric Bechard, owner and bartender at Albatross, located at 225 14th St., Astoria. Albatross is open from 5 p.m. to midnight, Tuesday through Saturday.

Crimp >NUÜźPS@ 1. transitive verb to bend, twist, or pinch; to make wavy 2. noun something produced by the act of crimping, such as artificially wavy hair or a sealed pie crust or pastry 3. noun a person who coerces or entraps sailors, soldiers, seamen, etc., into shipping or enlisting, usually by force and for monetary gain Origin: v. 1698. Before 1398, crympen, to be drawn together; possible origin from the Old English, gecrympan, to curl, shrink, but generally agreed

upon to have been reintroduced from the Dutch or Low German, krimpen, meaning the same thing. –n. 1863, American English referring to a natural curl in wood grain, from the verb. –n. 1758, British slang, originally meaning “agent,� that picked up negative connotation as it began to refer exclusively to those who acted as middlemen to provide sailors for ships using nefarious and/or quasi-legal means. “Crimps rubbed elbows with politicians and important society people; they gave the Columbia River a vile reputation on an international scale; and they left behind dramatic legends of sailors shanghaied and brutalized. A close study of these legends reveals considerable factual evidence of such notorious waterfront practices.� —Denise M. Alborn, “Crimping and Shanghaiing on the Columbia River,� Oregon Historical Quarterly, Vol. 93, No. 3, Fall 1992
