The Holidays Are Upon Us Cozy Fireplace, Custom Musical Decor

Our Blues Moon Deluxe Cabin is secluded with great views!! View from Balcony!

I try not to dwell on it because I was raised in the Air Force and was hardly around my grandparents or family, at least until Dad retired. So, when I get sad, I think of my grandparents who watched as we flew off to Japan in 1963 and didn’t come home again until 1967. There were no Skype sessions or Facebook site to keep in touch. I remember my parents waking me early in the mornings whenever my grandmother called from Idaho. It was just something we did back in those days. And wrote lots of letters.

So, I can’t feel bad. I get to see frequent pictures online and get to chat with my kidlet and that eases the hurt when it happens.Veterans Day happens in November and

I never fail to thank all of the servicemen, their wives and children for the service they provide to our country. It’s not just those that ship overseas, it’s their wives and kids that stay home and carry on while they are serving. Thank you all. •••••• It’s been a tough few months in the area. Over this past weekend, a student from Powell County High School was killed in an accident. This is the third student death in the past few months. It’s hard to lose anyone, even harder to lose a child. I can’t imagine and won’t pretend to. I continue to keep Aaron Williams in my prayers, he is the young man from Montgomery County that is currently at Cardinal Hill after a car accident several months ago. Hug your kiddos tightly, that’s all I can say. •••••• There have been other tragedies as well. Madison County lost one of their finest last week, due to violence from a break-in he was investigating. It’s the first officer from Madison County that has been killed and the entire community has rallied around his family

and provided much needed support. We will continue to keep his wife and young son in our prayers, along with all the co-workers he leaves behind. Add to that the paramedic that was killed over in Nicholasville and it’s just been a sad, sad time around Central Kentucky. Our emergency workers work to save the public every single day and it’s tragic when their lives are taken in the line of duty. I know I have a cousin in West Palm Beach, Florida that is with the Sheriff’s Department and we all worry about him all the time. It’s sad that so many police officers are having to watch their backs to avoid from getting killed. We need to all pray for our country. •••••• November is the month of my mom’s birth. She has been gone since 2000, but November always seems to bring back memories of her. We had several “November” birthdays in addition to mom, my sister Roben’s birthday is on the 26th and my cousin Jon Beck’s birthday is on the 24th. Our Thanksgiving dinner always included birthday cake. And yes, I

November is officially the kick off to the holiday season for many. Personally, I wait until December - but that’s me. It’s not because I want to, it’s just the month of November is awfully busy and with the kidlet and grandkidlet living so far away, the holidays take on a whole new meaning.

CONGRATS to ALL Members of Estill Engineers Marching Band for winning

She Tells Her Grandma That She’s Just Been Cheated On So Grandma Tells Her To Do This This is a good lesson for all of us, no matter what stage of life you’re in. You’ll see what I mean. A young woman went to her grandmother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her – her husband had cheated on her and she was devastated. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as soon as one problem was solved, a new one arose. Her grandmother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the first she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs, and in the last she placed ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil; without saying a word. In about twenty minutes she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. Then she ladled the coffee out and placed it in a bowl. Turning to her granddaughter, she asked, ‘Tell me what you see.’ ‘Carrots, eggs, and coffee,’ she replied. Her grandmother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. The grandmother then asked the granddaughter to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard boiled egg. Finally, the grandmother asked the granddaughter to sip the coffee. The granddaughter smiled as she tasted its rich aroma. The granddaughter then asked, ‘What does it mean, grandmother?’ Her grandmother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity: boiling water. Each reacted differently. The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting. However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak. The egg had been fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after sitting through the boiling water, its inside became hardened. The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After

they were in the boiling water, they had changed the water. “Which are you?” she asked her granddaughter. “When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean? Think of this: Which am I? Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity? Do I wilt and become soft and lose my strength? Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with the heat? Did I have a fluid spirit, but after a death, a breakup, a financial hardship or some other trial, have I become hardened and stiff? Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and tough with a stiff spirit and hardened heart? Or am I like the coffee bean? The bean actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that brings the pain.. When the water gets hot, it releases the fragrance and flavor. If you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better and change the situation around you. When the hour is the darkest and trials are their greatest, do you elevate yourself to another level? How do you handle adversity? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean? May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human and enough hope to make you happy. The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; you can’t go forward in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so at the end, you’re the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Red River Gorge Turns Pink

to catering our meals on Saturday. The resort itself is more than large enough for a group gathering, or a wedding - which was happening at the Cliffview Lodge just down the road from the Activity Center. It was a busy place, and that’s good. Most of the guests took home brochures to plan future visits and were quite impressed with the cabins they had rented.

Story By Pam Hedge Photos Contributed

ver the weekend of November 6-8, Plexus Ambassadors from twelve different states descended on the Red River Gorge and turned it Pink. Weekend in the Woods, Turning the Gorge Pink, was held at the Activity Center at Cliffview Resort. There were visitors from as far away as Mississippi, Michigan and Illinois, coming to Kentucky for the first time to listen to two days of training by some of the top Plexus Jewels in the company. Friday afternoon was started with a Meet and Greet session, where all of these guests got to meet, many for the first time. The Plexus community is a large one, and most everyone has ‘met’ through social media but never in person, or only see each other once or twice a year.

Training started on Saturday morning at 8:30, with a session geared towards Men put on by Josh Pilgrim. It was very well attended and lots of great information was shared, not just with the men but with all the women that also chose to attend this session. And Opportunity of a Lifetime meeting followed, with several guests from the area attending to get a quick overview about The beautiful cake made by Loretta Friend, sister of Ambassador Theresa just what Plexus is about. After a catered lunch by The Delaware of Irvine. Gorge Cafe, a full afternoon of training sessions were presented to all of those present. It was very informative held at Lakeside Cabin for the brave souls who weren’t too tired, and everyone seemed to be happy about everything they were nor too cold to stand around the fire. learning in each session. It was well worth the time of each Ambassador present. A Dinner With The Jewels was held Saturday While most of the guests headed for their homes early on evening before wrapping up the sessions for the day. A bonfire was Sunday morning, there was a group from Tennessee that wanted to enjoy the zipline tour, that is located within Cliffview Resort. Of course, I went along to make sure everything went okay. Marie Roberts, one of those zip lining, was fulfilling a bucket list item. She has lost 85 pounds since starting Plexus and this was the first time she’d ever been light enough to take the tour. She overcame a big fear of heights to do this as well, and we were all just so proud of her for accomplishing her goal. The guides at Red River Gorge Zipline Tours are always fantastic, but they even took a little extra time with Marie to help calm her fears so she could finish. We about lost her on tower four because it’s pretty high up in the air. She was a trooper though and off we went. It was the highlight of my weekend. Guests were welcomed at the Opportunity of a Lifetime Meeting held on Saturday morning.

Pink.....

We can’t say that our weekend went without a few glitches, which we expected. There was a missed flight resulting in an extra trip over to Lexington’s airport (thanks Dave Severson), there was one camper who almost cut his finger off chopping firewood and had to go to Clark County’s ER (thanks to them for taking such good care), there were a few that got lost finding the Gorge and winding up at the Nada Tunnel. But, all in all, a great time was had by everyone who attended and pictures filled up social media as they all traveled home. I can’t wait to see most of them again at Super Saturday in Nashville this coming January. I must add that the entire crew at Cliffview Resort, Red River Gorge Zipline Tours, Red River Gorge Cabin Rentals and The Gorge Cafe did an awesome job accommodating this event, from Cherilyn Morgan of Lexington with Diamond helping people Ambassador Debra Lawson of Mississippi. with directions

Some of my favorite ladies! Robin Easterday, Holly Honnold, Kellie Yielding, Marie Roberts, Renee Bronzetti, Sherril Bruckner and Shawn Downie traveled from Tennessee, Ohio and Michigan to be at Weekend in the Woods.

A ziplining tour was enjoyed by a few of the ladies before heading home on Sunday. Marie Roberts, back left, lost 85 pounds to be under the weight limit and this was on her bucket list.

The trainers were treated to a room at the Lakeside Retreat. There are 12 bedrooms in this luxury cabin.

The visiting Jewels, which are Ambassadors in the the top three tiers of Plexus, kicked off the weekend of training with a Question and Answer Panel. Questions Josh Pilgrim, Stephanie Maness, Missy Hall, Lisa McKeever and Debra were asked by those in the audience and then each Lawson traveled from across the United States to put on two days of Plexus of the speakers were given a few minutes to answer. Everyone’s journey in Plexus is different, so it was very training sessions for over 60 ambassadors from 12 states. enlightening to hear the different approaches by each of them. Those traveling in for the training were Debra Lawson, Diamond Ambassador from Mississippi; Lisa McKeever, Sapphire Ambassador from New Jersey and Emerald Ambassadors Missy Hall from Oklahoma; Josh Pilgrim from Georgia and Stephanie Maness from Tennessee. A delicious barbecue was enjoyed by all later Friday evening before everyone retreated to their cabins and rooms to rest up for Saturday.

For those wondering, Plexus is a line of allnatural supplements and vitamins. Dave and I have been using Plexus products since January and have seen a big difference in just about everything in our lives.

Time was I could remember Without leaving myself notes Now I’m lucky to remember Even with the things I’ve wrote. If I can see to read at all The letters must be bold, that’s just some of the perks That go along with growing old. I guess the things I’m speaking of Are happening to you too, Now we can only dream about The things we use to do.

October’s Winner! Thyme on Broadway

The October 2015 winner our Abby Track contest is Hasof Re-Opened! Angel Campbell of Stanton, Kentucky. Angel found the A Abby Track on page 6 in the picture of Mark and Laura Ashley Johnson. Angel wins two ziplining passes to Red River Gorge Zipline Tours near Slade. Congratulations and thanks so much for entering the contest. And yes, we know it was also located on the Hardy Gas ad on page 29. My errors are very public! Story by Pam Hedge

n Irvine business has re-opened after former owner Sherry Reams took a break from the business a few months ago and local residents have been patiently waiting for it’s return. Thyme officially re-opened on September 8th, after a few weeks of anticipation as the news spread about the new owners. Yes, I said new owners. That is because Thyme on Broadway was recently purchased by Mark and Laura Ashley Johnson. Now, most people in Estill County know Laura Ashley, she is the former Laura Ashley Dennis and known to so many in the area. We actually met Laura Ashley through Relay for Life years ago, and many members of her family have now become friends through various organizations that we all belong to.

Of course, she up and moved on all of us a couple of years ago after meeting Mark Johnson, who works as an Engineer on a project in Easterm Washington. And get this ... he’s from the same valley we are from out west. He’s from Asotin, on the Washington side of the Snake River, Dave and I are from Lewiston, on the Idaho side. But, we all considered “The Valley” home for many, many years. So, we were sad Laura moved, but happy she had met Mark. Since that time, they’ve married and continued to come back to Estill County for visits, although they live in the Tri-Cities area of Washington State. Thyme on Broadway has always been a place Laura Ashley loved and she never missed it during her visits ‘home.’ The entire community is pleased that Thyme has re-opened and that a former resident has invested in her hometown. We were all a bit afraid that Thyme wouldn’t re-open. And to those of us that are coffee lovers, well that just wasn’t good news.

The business, which is located at 131 Broadway in downtown Irvine, is much more than coffee though. I’ve pretty much learned when I visit that I walk away with more than coffee every time. They open at 6:30 am Monday through Saturday for the early coffee crowd, and they begin serving from their breakfast menu starting at 7 am. The menu at Thyme offers high quality ingredients and healthier options for the community.

Join the Thyme on Broadway Coffee Rewards Club!

Enjoy a delicious, healthy salad, just one of the many items they offer for lunch.

You might wonder how Laura Ashley and Mark run this from Eastern Washington State? They have an excellent staff that oversees it’s operation. The manager is Laura’s mother Phyllis Dennis. Former employee Brittany Brinegar is Assistant Manager and Lead Barista is John Isaacs. In fact, they tried keeping as many former employees as they could. Their culinary team consists of Lori McKinney, Eldina Howell, Mandy Neal, Marla Marrs, Chris Winthrow, Brenda Clair and Laura’s aunt, Rebecca Wolfinbarger. I’m sure you’ll find that Estine Tipton, mayor of Ravenna and Laura’s grandmother, does some of the baking from time to time as well. And who doesn’t love Estine’s cooking?

Mark and Laura Ashley Johnson, new owners of Thyme on Broadway in Irvine.

Of course, anyone that knows me, knows how much I push supporting local businesses and Mark and Laura Ashley have really taken a great step in that direction. They offer Brown Farm Meats for their breakfast sandwiches and are great supporters of Ravenna Greenhouse, Take It Personal and All Things Country Magazine, along with other businesses throughout the community.

They welcome groups and children are welcome as well. Thyme offers a lounge-type setting with free Wi-Fi, so you can enjoy your tablets while sipping on a delicious coffee beverage. They offer take-out, which Dave and I have taken advantage of many times since Thyme originally opened. They also offer catering services to any business, any day of the week. Give them a call at 606-723-9776 or email them at tobrewards@gmail.com for more information on their catering services.

Wilderness Wanderings . . .

By Bill Gordon Stanton, KY

Witch Hazel My walk in the woods today marked the transition from fall to winter. This particular event takes place quite suddenly each year, mostly because of a day or two of blustery, windy weather. I’m referring to the final leaf drop, when all the leaves are off, save the stubborn oaks and a scattering of beeches on the protected hillsides. The past few days have been windy, and it’s

hundred feet of rope and chain and it is now being cut into firewood. Many of the natural cavity bird houses for sale this Christmas season will have cavities from this recycled tree. Besides finding some additional firewood, I am marking each Sugar Maple tree I find that is close to my meadow edges and accessible walking trails. Perhaps this spring we will begin tapping these trees for the wonderful sugary sap that will be boiled down to pure maple syrup. It takes about fifty gallons of sap to make one gallon of syrup, a timeconsuming source of good, honest work that yields the heavenly delicious organic sweetener that many people nowadays have never even tasted.

been like a snowstorm of leaves, with the ground covered in swirling masses of leaves reminding me so much of foamy surf rushing onto the beach on a strong storm surge tide. Today, for the first time since April, I can see through the woods. The leaf blanket has been removed, and through the eyes of a nature detective, some of the secrets in the wilderness are revealed. I’m always on the lookout for deadfalls that have blown to ground, a ready source of firewood, and today I spied several that will be within reach using long ropes attached to my pickup truck. I will not cut down any of the dead trees that are scattered throughout my wilderness acres, they are the favored sources of nesting habitat for cavity-nesting birds and mammals. I’ll wait until the wind or ice pulls them down. Once on the ground, they get sawn up and added to the woodpile. Any old woodpecker holes will be cut out and saved for bird houses, the remaining wood will warm the house, then the ashes recycled into the garden for next year’s vegetables. I’ve got a big old beech that I dragged out of the woods with a couple

and growing up my mom always had a bottle of witch hazel in the medicine cabinet. My dad used it as after shave, we put it on insect bites, and as a teen I used it as a facial wipe for treating acne. It is still used today in many commercial healthcare products and hemorrhoid preparations. The seeds are edible and were a favorite of the hunter-gatherer tribes. I think the seeds taste like pistachios, but it is very difficult to collect any appreciable amount. When the seeds are mature and ready to pop out, the process takes only a few days for all of them to be ejected from the pods. Timing is the critical issue. I shot some photos of the blossoms on a Sunday. Four days later, Thursday, I went back to the same patch Continued on Page 15

of plants to collect some of the fruit pods so I could extract the seeds and germinate them in planting pots (and eat a few too). In that short stretch of time all the pods had burst open and the seeds ejected. I was hoping to make a batch of chocolate chip cookies, and add in some Hickory nut meats I’ve collected, and some Witch Hazel seeds. Oh well, better luck next year.

Marcum & Wallace Hospital receives ACR Lung Cancer Screening Designation

RIP

Marcum & Wallace Hospital (MWMH) in Irvine is now a designated CT Lung Cancer Screening Center by the American College of Radiology (ACR) and participating in the Lung Cancer Screening Registry.

Participation in the registry is voluntary and allows the MWMH imaging facility to compare its lung cancer screening performance to other facilities nationwide. Healthcare providers and radiology staff can use these objective comparisons to advance our lung cancer screening practice, target specific areas for improvement, implement quality improvement programs, and improve patient care. “Screening is an important tool in the fight against lung cancer,” said Marcum & Wallace Radiology Director Sharon Whitaker. “An annual CT screening for people at high risk for lung cancer can save lives through early detection. This designation shows our commitment to patients of our region. Low dose CT screening for lung cancer carried out safely, efficiently and equitably will save tens of thousands of lives a year.” The ACR Lung Cancer Screening Registry (LCSR) is approved by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to meet Medicare quality reporting requirements. As part of the ACR National Radiology Data Registry (NRDR®), the LCSR leads the effort in developing benchmarks and comparisons to help imaging facilities improve quality of patient care. For additional information about a CT Lung Cancer Screening, contact Sharon Whitaker, Radiology Director, 606726-2178.

(NewsUSA) – “Made in America” matters; almost 80 percent of Americans would prefer to buy an American-made product instead of one made abroad, based on data from a national survey by the Consumer Reports National Research Center. The findings appeared in an article in the February 2013 issue of Consumer Reports magazine.

Henry Repeating Arms, maker of repeating firearms based on the design that was patented in 1860, is one example of a company that takes pride in its American roots and gives back to the country and communities.

How American-Made Products Benefit Many

You always hear the usual stories of pennies on the sidewalk being good luck, gifts from angels, etc. This is the first time I’ve ever heard this twist on the story. Gives you something to think about. Several years ago, a friend of mine and her husband were invited to spend the weekend at the husband’s employer’s home. My friend, Arlene, was nervous about th e weekend. The boss was very wealthy, with a fine home on the waterway, and cars costing more than her house. The first day and evening went well, and Arlene was delighted to have this rare glimpse into how the very wealthy live. The husband’s employer was quite generous as a host, and took them to the finest restaurants. Arlene knew she would never have the opportunity to indulge in this kind of extravagance again, so was enjoying herself immensely. As the three of them were about to enter an exclusive restaurant that evening, the boss was walking slightly ahead of Arlene and her husband. He stopped suddenly, looking down on the pavement for a long, silent moment.. Arlene wondered if she was supposed to pass him. There was nothing on the ground except a single darkened penny that someone had dropped, and a few cigarette butts. Still silent, the man reached down and picked up the penny. He held it up and smiled, then put it in his pocket as if he had found a great treasure. How absurd! What need did this man have for a single penny? Why would he even take the time to stop and pick it up? Throughout dinner, the entire scene nagged at her. Finally, she could stand it no longer. She casually mentioned that her daughter once had a coin collection, and asked if the penny he had found had been of some value. A smile crept across the man’s face as he reached into his pocket for the penny and held it out for her to see. She had seen many pennies before! What was the point of this? ‘Look at it.’ He said. ‘Read what it says.’ She read the words ‘ United States of America ‘ ‘No, not that; read further.’ ‘One cent?’ ‘No, keep reading.’ ‘In God we Trust?’ ‘Yes!’ ‘And?’ ‘And if I trust in God, the name of God is holy, even on a coin. Whenever I find a coin, I see that inscription. It is written on every single United States coin, but we never seem to notice it! God drops a message right in front of me telling me to trust Him? Who am I to pass it by? When I see a coin, I pray, I stop to see if my trust IS in God at that moment. I pick the coin up as a response to God; that I do trust in Him. For a short time, at least, I cherish it as if it were gold. I think it is God’s way of starting a conversation with me. Lucky for me, God is patient and pennies are plentiful! When I was out shopping today, I found a penny on the sidewalk. I stopped and picked it up, and realized that I had been worrying and fretting in my mind about things I cannot change. I read the words, ‘In God We Trust,’ and had to laugh. Yes, God, I get the message. It seems that I have been finding an inordinate number of pennies in the last few months, but then, pennies are plentiful! And, God is patient..

(NewsUSA) – With more and more people moving to urban areas or just looking to minimize and simplify their lives, smallspace living is on the rise. This trend toward scaling back is great news for cat lovers. But sharing your small home with a cat isn’t without its challenges. Here’s how to make sure you and your feline friend live in harmony when space is at a premium.

Give your cat a “territory.” Cats are territorial animals, just like their counterparts in the wild. Domestic cats don’t need acres of grassland, but they should have a special place in your small home. Let your cat pick his or her favorite spot -- it may be a windowsill, a high perch or a dark

hiding spot -- and set up a comfortable bed or blanket. Intrusions into this space, whether from humans or other pets, should be kept to a minimum.

Forget about “off-limits.” In a small space, your cat will need a lot of freedom to explore. Don’t expect furniture, tables or even kitchen counters to be off limits. Instead, keep food, breakables and anything else you don’t want your cat to get into behind closed cabinet doors and let your cat roam free.

Choose a cat litter made for tight quarters. The litter box can be the trickiest part of sharing a small home with a cat. You need a litter that delivers powerful odor control and makes it easy to keep the box clean. World’s Best Cat Litter harnesses the concentrated power of corn for long-lasting performance and keeps odor under control even in the tightest spaces. As a bonus for apartment dwellers who dread trash trips, this all-natural litter alternative is also flushable* and septic-safe. Cats can be the perfect pets for people living in tight quarters. It just takes a little planning and compromise to keep everyone purring and content! *The State of California encourages the disposal of cat feces in trash and discourages flushing feces in toilets or disposing of them in drains.

New TIPS Program Focuses on Preventing Youth Sports Injuries (NewsUSA) – It’s recognized as a “silent epidemic” among our nation’s youth. We’re talking sports-related injuries. Every day nearly 8,000 young athletes sustain an injury bad enough to send them to an emergency room, and -- if that’s not chilling enough -- just look at these numbers from the National Athletic Trainers’ Association and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: • In the past year alone, 48 youths died due to sports injuries. • About 30,000 high school athletes are hospitalized every year. • Concussions account for 90 percent of high schoolers’ 300,000 annual head injuries. That explains why a new program called “Athletic TIPS” (Towards Injury Prevention in Sports) has garnered the support of everyone from health care professionals to athletic directors to sports stars like football legend Michael Strahan. The retired New York Giants defensive end, in fact, narrates the introductory video on behalf of the not-for-profit group behind the initiative. The program’s goal? To foster “a safer experience” for athletes at the kindergarten through college levels by focusing on the recognition, prevention and management of sports-related injuries -- all done through community workshops, online learning, and other grassroots initiatives. “Athletic TIPS answers a critical need for educating schoolage athletes, their parents, and advisors about sports-related injuries,” says Ed Goren, the former vice-chairman of Fox Sports Media Group, who’s backing the initiative. “Hopefully, parents will feel more confident encouraging their sons and daughters to reap sports’ substantial benefits and life lessons.” The workshops target four key areas: concussion recognition and prevention; nutrition in sports management; preventing dehydration and heat-related conditions; and recognizing, managing, and preventing musculoskeletal injuries.

* Butter-up: Pumpkin may be the star of autumn, but butternut squash is quick on its heels. Easy to prepare and packed with vitamins A and C, butternut squash adds a hearty sweetness to any dish. Give your sandwiches a seasonal makeover by creating custom spreads and sauces blended with butternut squash. From a roasted squash, manchego and balsamic-onion grilled cheese to a tangy goat cheese and squash spread on your favorite panini, this quick addition is sure to give any sandwich an extra burst of flavor. * Gobble up extra protein: When the leaves start to fall, turkey takes center stage as the go-to protein for sandwiches, snacks and, of course, Thanksgiving dinner. But why wait for leftovers to enjoy a classic turkey sandwich? Lean turkey options help elevate sandwiches while still packing a nutritional punch. “Look for turkey products that are lower in sodium and fat without sacrificing the amount of protein you get in each serving,” says registered dietitian and cookbook author Jessica Fishman Levinson MS, RDN CDN. “A great option is Simply Delicious Slow Roasted Turkey Breast from Land O’Frost, which offers 8 grams of protein for only 50 calories per serving.” Simply Delicious is certified as heart-healthy by the American Heart Association and contains no artificial flavors, by-products or added hormones. * Apple a day: Apple picking is a favorite autumn past time, but what do you do with all those freshly picked apples after the pie is made? Use everyone’s favorite seasonal fruit to brighten up a warm grilled panini or gourmet grilled cheese with a layer of homemade apple chutney or apple butter. With these tips in in mind, you’ll be able to incorporate your favorite seasonal flavors into an endless array of sandwich combinations. For coupons and more information about Simply Delicious products from Land O’Frost, visit www.landofrost.com.

By Brianna Gee of Grayson, Kentucky Almost 8 months ago I lost my uncle unexpectedly. The subject is still raw on our hearts, as it would be on any family. He was taken too soon from this world, only being the age of 31. He left behind a legacy of four beautiful children who love and adore him and are a spitting image of his charisma and charm. He left behind 5 nieces and nephews who have loved him unconditionally through his hardest and best days. What’s hardest to know is that he left behind a nephew that will never know, without the vague memories we try to explain, how much of an impact he made on all of our worlds. My personal lifelong account of me and my uncle’s relationship is one often untold. Our disappointments were many and our conversations varied from love to anger in a matter of seconds. He was a head strong man with weak minded decisions. He battled with drug addictions that often tore our family into shreds. I was there when he had a little too much to drink. I was there, hiding, clinging to my brother, when his arguments became heated with my grandmother. I was there when he wrecked his truck that freezing night. I was always there to see his lowest points when so many times they were supposed to be hidden. Since I was the one always there, since I was the one who always new, I became the niece that whenever he looked into my eyes he felt heartache and guilt. Whenever he looked into my eyes he saw my disappointment and inability to understand why he acted the way he did. Why he had to turn to drugs. Why he had to cause so many sleepless nights and stopping hearts when the telephone

rang late at night. I asked questions with my eyes that he himself couldn’t answer. Although his addictions tore our family apart and that seemed like it could possibly be the worse thing in the world to possibly bear at the time, we found out that there was something much worse than the heartache we were already suffering: losing him completely. Not until I no longer had him to tell me how beautiful I looked for the dance, or to threaten the date I went with, or to talk about the world and a brighter tomorrow with while on four wheeler rides, I realized how much I truly and deeply loved and adored him. I loved the way he laughed. I loved the way he cracked a joke or how he would get to the point of amusement that he would almost spit out his drink. I loved the way he felt the need to protect me and hold me in his arms or how even though he may not go to church any other time of year he always brought out his best suit for Mother’s Day and Easter. I loved how he would get so into those Easter egg hunts and always found a way to cheat. I loved his hugs. I loved the way he loved his children. I loved him. And forever I will. He revealed to me how to be patient with those you love and even though you may not understand their ways to always express tenderness and kindness. He taught me through his mistakes and revealed to me how this world can be filled with beauty and joy and heartache and heavy burdens. He showed me, though he may have never realized it, how to love, how to laugh, how to dream. For he did all those things. I have watched my mother for 8 months now cry herself to sleep. I’ve watched her conquer the hardest of days and stand next to a casket that she wishes more than every fiber in her being wasn’t upholding the body she knew it did. I watched all of our nightmares turn into a reality. I have sat, at the age of 16, on the front row of a funeral service. I have sung along to the words of Come Thou Fount Of Every Blessing at the top of my lungs while the tears groggle my voice. I have had to be the shoulder to lean on when my own was too weak. I have had to hold my tears inside so that I could be strong for someone else. I have had to battle the addiction I have to his memory. I have had to conquer the sorrow that grows inside of me daily. And I have had to plea with my Heavenly Father to give me strength to carry a broken family. I know many are facing the same battle I am. Addictions tear apart families. But the worst addiction is the one that accompanies the mind when a mother puts to rest her youngest son, or when a sister tells her baby brother goodbye, or when a son asks his daddy why he left him so soon, or when a niece wishes she could have more time to correct all the judgements she had made, or when a nephew wishes he would have asked him a few more tips on how to score a date with that girl. That’s the true challenge. And the only rehab to help you is in the form of time. Waking up and going on another day, creating new memories without him along your side, that’s how you stop being addicted to a memory. However, I’ll be honest I relapse more than I should. And I don’t think I’ll ever stop craving. I’ll never stop remembering.
