Debbie Reynolds Ranch & Dance studio Auction! Mothers and daughters run the gamut from very close to jealousy to locking horns and back to closeness - all in one relationship. It’s a peculiar condition as old as history and if not blatantly evident, is always lying in the background regardless of the social culture of the era. Such was the case with award winning 1950’s - 60’s film star Debbie Reynolds and her daughter Carrie Fisher, though with Carrie’s history of drug abuse and bipolar disease, Debbie lived in a world of worry as any mother would, adding yet another layer of tension between the two. Both women were notable for their acting in films that are now staples for filmgoers such as Carrie’s character Leia in Star Wars and Debbie’s character Kathy Selden in Singin’ in the Rain. Feeling that she would never be as beautiful as her mother and knowing she would have to work even harder, Carrie took it several steps further as an author and script writer. Both have an impressive roster of film roles and television appearances. Her book, and later film Postcards From the Edge, which was considered to be semi-biographical, was thought by many to be heavier on the biographical end. As Debbie said, her children grew up in the movies. She didn’t bake cookies and she didn’t stay home. The children didn’t grow up in an average family and being in the spotlight as Debbie Reynolds’ daughter took its toll on their relationship. After being diagnosed as bipolar, Carrie was estranged from her mother by her own choice for almost 30 years. In later years mother and daughter again became close. Both go-getters and hard workers, they also made time for unfortunate marriages. Debbie Reynolds was involved in one of the largest scandals in Hollywood when Carrie’s father, Eddie Fisher, left Debbie for Elizabeth Taylor - who in turn left Eddie Fisher for Richard Burton. Carrie married Paul Simon, which marriage lasted for only a year and afterwards had an affair of three years that produced her only child. When Carrie died last year from a cardiac arrest at the age of 60, Debbie died from the complications of a stroke the day after Carrie’s death. In October, Debbie Reynolds’ ranch, dance studio and both mother’s and daughter’s personal property will be going up for auction. Debbie’s 44-acre ranch in Creston, Page 4
California was not her primary home but was where the family gathered on many occasions. It includes a main residence with custom home theatre, library and gym. a guest house, caretaker’s house, art studio, barn as well as a professional film and television production facility. There are irrigated pastures, abundant wildlife, a spring-fed pond and panoramic views. It is estimated to sell between $4 million and $8 million. Debbie’s dance studio was designed as a rehearsal facility with perks not normally available in similar structures. It is an 18,000-square-foot building with lounge area, dressing rooms, showers and six large studios. Some of the celebrities who have rehearsed there include Lucille Ball, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Bette Midler, Cher, Usher and Mariah Carey. It is expected to sell between $6 million and $8 million. On October 7th, 8th and 9th both Debbie’s ranch, dance studio and the personal property of both women will be auctioned. There will be over 1,500 lots in the auction, with items for collectors but also items for fans who want to own something special that belonged to Carrie or Debbie. According to Todd Fisher, Debbie’s son, both women were avid collectors of film memorabilia of the highest quality, which will be offered to the public.

Too marvelous for words, a celebration of Nat king cole Actor and singer Keith David takes us on a swingin’ journey into the life and music of Nat “King” Cole. Before the crooner immortalized “The Christmas Song” and “Mona Lisa,” standing in front of the orchestra, he was recording and playing (from the piano bench!) some of the tastiest and most influential music of the day. Emmy and Tony Award winner Keith David has been a Hollywood mainstay for decades, with appearances in such films as Platoon, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Crash and Armageddon, as well as his current hit TV show, Greanleaf. A lifetime fan of Nat “King” Cole, Mr. David infuses his love of Cole into the show with lush arrangements of Nat’s most famous songs, beautifully placed in the context of American history, charming stories, and littleknown anecdotes.

PET-FRIENDLY
PRACTICES FOR FALL A
Photos courtesy of Getty Images
FAMILY FEATURES
s scorching temperatures fade and pest season passes, pet owners may breathe a sigh of relief. Although the seasonal risks of summer are gone, your four-legged friend may need some special attention this autumn, as well.
Cold-weather pests. Though the dangers associated with ticks, mosquitos and other creepy, crawly critters lessen as the temperatures drop, those same colder days bring other creatures scurrying inside and that can present a whole new set of problems. Rats and mice tend to migrate indoors in search of warmth and the poisons used to eliminate them can be highly toxic to pets. Be sure pesticides are used in areas inaccessible to your animals. Stay alert. Ticks may be less prevalent in the fall, but that doesn’t mean they’re gone completely – especially if hospitable environments remain. Keep yard and garden debris to a minimum and continue administering repellents for any pets that spend time outdoors. On the move. Seasonal changes mean wildlife is on the move, making changes to settle into winter. Snakes are often more mobile during autumn months and inexperienced pets may risk bites if they tangle with intruders. Shiny, new things. Kids aren’t the only ones attracted to a collection of new school supplies. Curious pets may dive into a pile of crayons, markers, rulers and other supplies, and although the items likely aren’t toxic, they can result in digestive blockages or damage from sharp, broken edges. Anticipate energy needs. Colder temperatures can mean your pet has to exert more energy to keep warm and that may warrant bumping up meal serving sizes. Consult with your veterinarian about the appropriate feeding amounts for your pet’s specific breed, health and lifestyle needs. Auto-related issues. Many car owners use the change of season as a milestone for car maintenance and winterizing, such as changing oil or antifreeze. Antifreeze in particular is highly toxic; a small quantity can kill pets and, unfortunately, the sweet smell makes it quite attractive to curious creatures. Clean spills thoroughly and take added precaution by keeping pets away from your work area entirely while handling these substances. Not so fun-gus. Damp conditions can bring about a surge of mushrooms. Although only a small percentage of mushrooms are toxic, they can be hard to distinguish from the non-toxic variety. A good rule of thumb: keep pets clear of areas where mushrooms may be found, or if that’s not possible, conduct regular checks and remove any temptation that pops up. Comfort foods. Most pet owners know chocolate is dangerous for pets, but many other foods that are common in the fall can also be problematic. Keep pets away from rich, savory foods that can upset their digestion and leave Fido at home during your annual jaunt to the apple orchard; apple stems, seeds and cores can create plenty of digestive havoc. If you want to indulge your pet with a little seasonal flavor, instead try offering fresh or canned pumpkin. Find more pet parenting tips for fall and all year long at eLivingToday.com.
4 Benefits of Personalized Dog Food
F
or dog owners, your pet is often your world and there are few things more special than the bond you share. From playtime to mealtime, you never settle for “good enough,” and your dog’s health is no different. When deciding which dog food works best for your pet, keep personalized foods like Just Right by Purina in mind, which can help address your dog’s unique needs. It combines your firsthand knowledge with nutritional expertise to create the best dog food blend for your dog. By answering a few questions about your pet’s breed size, eating habits and more, you can create a personalized blend of food that includes your dog’s name, photo and feeding recommendation that gets shipped directly to your door. Feeding your dog personalized food could help yield these benefits:
amount of fats and proteins can help keep your dog right where he or she needs to be. Just as important, each dog has different metabolisms and different caloric needs, so personalized feeding instructions like those offered by Just Right by Purina can help your dog reach his or her ideal body condition.
Joint health and mobility
Many dogs are often on the move – walking, running and playing. Having healthy bones and joints can support your dog’s overall health. Choosing a formula with proper
amounts of calcium and phosphorus can help support joints and bones.
Brain development
Puppies need all the help they can get when it comes to growing and supporting life-long health. Giving them foods that include nutrients like DHA that support brain and vision development can inspire your puppy’s curiosity about the world. Young or old, big or small, every dog’s nutritional needs are unique. Find more ways to benefit your dog at mealtime at justrightpetfood.com.
Healthy skin and coat
By providing important details about your dog’s skin and its needs, certain ingredients can be included in order to avoid dry and itchy skin. Omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil, along with vitamin A and linoleic acid, can help keep your pup’s skin refreshed and can give your dog’s coat the nourishment it needs to be shiny and healthy.
Ideal body condition Being the right weight can contribute to a lot of different health factors, but having an ideal body condition can be about more than just the amount of food you feed your pet. The right

Orange County School of the Arts Foundation’s elegant fundraiser Deanna and Tom Wells with Lee Runnels and Sally Andreatta. Photo Credit: Marcos Lozano Orange County School of the Arts (OCSA) Foundation, a non-profit that supports one of the nation’s premier arts schools, kicked off the 2017-18 season with a stunning beachfront concert starring Broadway sensation and notable alumna Krysta Rodriguez performing musical numbers from her career alongside 12 talented Musical Theatre Conservatory students. Taking place during sunset at the Balboa Bay Resort in Newport Beach, OCSA’s Season Premiere also featured vocalists from MONTAGE! and a cabaret lounge jazz performance by students from The Garn Family Jazz Studies Program during the pre-show cocktail reception and dinner. Proceeds support OCSA’s award-winning arts conservatory programs. Season Premiere began with more than 280 guests arriving to find an exquisite cocktail reception set up beside the waterfront. High-top tables were draped in a Damask pattern of light blue and navy linens reflecting the blues of the bay and afternoon sky. While reuniting among friends, guests were served a rum-based signature cocktail, “The Big Easy,” and tasty tray-passed appetizers including coconut lobster, wild mushroom volau-vent and andouille sausage en croute. The cabaret lounge jazz combo Krysta Rodriguez with 12 talented Musical Theatre Conservatory performed jazz standard repertoire from the Great American Song Book, and students. was featured in a performance of “Take the A Train.” MONTAGE! vocalists sang solos with the band. Hanna Eyre (who recently competed on NBC’s “The Voice”) performed “They Can’t Take That Away from Me” and Carson Ripley sang “All of Me.” Guests then took their seats at white round tables topped with velvet navy napkins and centerpieces of purple alstroemeria, blue thistle and nandina in fabric-covered vases that matched the Damask linens used during the reception. While the jazz group continued to play, guests enjoyed a lobster bisque with crawfish, lobster and bay shrimp followed by an entrée of delicately seared filet mignon in red wine reduction and grilled jumbo tiger shrimp with jambalaya rice and ratatouille-stuffed squash blossom. Desserts alternated between vanilla cheesecake with mint julep coulis and peaches, and white chocolate bread pudding with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce. As the sun went down, festoon lighting, decorative lanterns and creatively lit purple palm trees set the scene for the main event.

Five unexpected ways to get your kids to eat veggies - and like them Peas, carrots, broccoli and spinach ... some kids love vegetables, but many do not. We know that veggies provide nourishment, especially for growing children, but getting your kids to eat healthier can be a challenge. Luckily, there are plenty of creative ways to increase the amount of veggies in your kids’ diets. Here are five tips to get the little ones in your life to eat - and even enjoy - their vegetables. Smooth operator Picky eaters might turn up their noses at the sight of leafy green vegetables, but they’ll gladly accept a tasty, blended treat. Incorporate a variety of veggies, plus some fruit for sweetness, into a smoothie, and your kids will just taste the sweet fruit flavor. Throw a few broccoli florets and a handful of spinach, along with some green grapes, a bit of pear and avocado, plus water and pineapple juice, into a Vitamix 5200 to create a sweet green smoothie. The little ones will think they’re enjoying a decadent treat, but they’ll also be getting antioxidants, vitamins and other nutrients. Squeeze the juice Most kids enjoy a nice glass or box of refreshing juice. Rather than giving them store-bought juices, which could be loaded with sugar and missing essential nutrients, utilize a high-powered blender to make whole-food juices at home. Use carrots, pineapple and a little water to make a sweet yet healthy juice that contains antioxidants and fiber. With whole-food juices, you’re able to keep the healthiest parts of the fruits and vegetables: the seeds, skin and pulp. Plus, you’ll know exactly what your kids are drinking. Sauce it up What kid doesn’t love macaroni and cheese? Increase your children’s veggie intake by making a homemade cheese sauce with healthy ingredients. Puree cauliflower, carrots or butternut squash, add them to your sauce and serve over whole-wheat macaroni noodles for a more nutritious version of this favorite dish. You can also make a fresh tomato sauce to serve over spaghetti squash “noodles,” a wholesome, gluten-free alternative to traditional pasta. To make the “noodles,” simply halve and seed the squash, then bake in a dish with one-half cup of water at 375 degrees for 30 minutes. When the squash is cooked, use a fork to scrape the flesh, which creates the “noodles.” “Souper” healthy Another great way to get more veggies into your kids’ diets is to add them to a soup. Many kids would Page 16
rather not eat plain broccoli, so try a low-fat cheesy vegetable soup that incorporates this essential ingredient. All you need is broccoli or cauliflower, low-fat milk, low-fat cheese and some spices to make a nutritious, satisfying soup. Your kids will love the cheesy taste - and you’ll love that they’re eating more vegetables. Sweet treats A frozen treat is a satisfying way to end a meal. Create an avocado sorbet using soymilk and a touch of sugar, or make a spinach-lime sorbet with fruit juice for sweetness. You can make the sorbet ahead of time and let it freeze, or use frozen fruits and vegetables to whip up a quick treat in a high-powered blender. Your kids will enjoy their dessert, and you’ll enjoy knowing it’s full of healthy veggies. You may have to be creative to get your children to eat the recommended three to five servings of vegetables each day, but there are many ways to introduce them to new flavors. Try some of these ideas, and your kids will be getting the nutrition they need. Also, when it comes to eating your veggies, be sure to lead by example. Children are much more apt to try new things if they see others enjoying the food. Vitamix All Green Smoothie Ingredients: 1/4 cup water 1/2 cup pineapple juice 1 3/4 cups green grapes 1/4 Bartlett pear, ripe, seeded, halved 1/2 avocado, pitted, peeled 1/4 cup coarsely chopped broccoli 1/2 cup spinach, washed 1/4 cup ice cubes Directions: Place all ingredients into the Vitamix container in the order listed and secure lid. Select Variable 1. Turn machine on and slowly increase speed to Variable 10, then to High. Blend for 35-40 seconds or until mixture is smooth. - (BPT)

C a t h e r i n e J o h n s o n G r i ff i n , N a m e d “ W o m a n Of The Year ” by Southern California Alumnae Council By Dawn Tetrault Sather As 2017 nears to a close, so too does the two-year term of Catherine Johnson Griffin, who was named “Woman Of The Year” by the Southern California Alumnae Council of Delta Delta Delta Fraternity. “I did not see the award coming” says Griffin, who serves as president of the Newport Harbor A l u m n a e C h a p t e r ( N H A C ) . It is an understatement to say that Griffin has more than earned the honor: since graduating from UCI in 1986 with a degree in economics, she has worked tirelessly to grow and improve the university’s Beta Upsilon chapter of Tri-Delta. She served seven years as its financial and administrative advisor and three as its alumna advisor. Among being tasked with multiple duties in serving these roles, she was also responsible for finances and leading meetings. She has been a role model to the women at UCI and an effective advocate for growing value and strengthening relationships between the Greek system and administration. Her work has paid off: today, more alumnae are involved in the alumni association, building strong relations with the School of Social Sciences Dean, Maurer and the Chancellor, Howard Gillman. Back when she was co-president with Kim Luong, the two were tasked with revitalizing a chapter that had fewer than four members. Years of decreasing membership had put the chapter in peril of imminent closure. The two formed a bond and slowly, the chapter began to thrive again. She initiated fun activities - wine & chocolate tastings, participation in the NB Restaurant Week, movie nights, meet-ups at a dog park outside Fashion Island & visits to the Children’s Hospital Mission Viejo for donating gift cards for the families of children undergoing treatment. Griffin values traditions, believing they are a constant between generations and a way to stay connected to those who came before you. As such, she reinstituted monthly chapter meetings with a meal and philanthropic planning. Last April, Griffin proudly oversaw the celebration of the chapters’ 55th birthday. Griffin has established new traditions too, many now include the alumnae & students together at the Balboa Bay Club kick-off meeting in September; Founders Day celebrations & graduation brunch following Circle Degree ceremonies every June. She’s even facilitated an on campus career night with both alumnae and students. “I look up to her. She’s a gracious person who uplifts everyone who comes in contact with her.” says Dawn Sather, an alumna member who traditionally hosts the annual brunch for the graduating class at her home. In naming Griffin as its recipient for Woman of the Year, the council cited her “extraordinary, ongoing service to the sorority”. Indeed, she is one of just 22 women who have shared the honor since it was first announced in 1973. Two women from Griffin’s same chapter have been recipients - Susan Kagy
Wachtler and Lora Snow White - in 1999 and 2015, respectively. In a testament to Griffin’s fine character, many of her young charges refer to her as their second mom, a role model whom they go to for guidance. As an outgoing advisor and mentor to these young women at UCI, she wrote letters of recommendation. For an award known as the Sarah Ida Shaw, it was particularly gratifying when parts of her letter she’d written were read aloud during the announcement that Arwa Tizani had won. The recipient now works for Elon Musk. Griffin has additionally been named president of Sleigh Bell 2017, a once-historic fundraiser with a 70-year history that traditionally marked the start of the Christmas season in Southern California. Unfortunately, the annual event, came to an abrupt end in 2016 for lack of new leadership. Reminiscent of her initial work as president of her Tri-Delta chapter, Griffin has been given the enormous job of resuscitating the grand fundraiser. It is a Herculean undertaking hundreds are expected - but Griffin is fearless and indefatigable. She and her committee with Fox Studios and producer Mark Gordon Productions, have planned a Hollywood-style evening on November 15th for a pre-release movie screening. Attendees will enjoy a VIP reception followed by a screening of the movie, Murder on the Orient Express at USC’s historic Bovard Theater. Funds raised are earmarked for pediatric cancer research at Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles. “Expect an enchanting movie premier evening that you’ll never forget,” says Griffin, who designed sterling silver charms that are being sold to raise funds for the cause. Griffin’s personal life is just as inspiring. She’s been married for more than 30 years to her college sweetheart, Michael. He is, she says, her “best friend and biggest supporter. I could not do what I do without his love and encouragement”. Their son, Christopher, recently graduated Gould School of Law at USC and practices law in Los Angeles, and their daughter, Victoria, who was awarded UCI’s Chancellor’s Excellence Award in Political Science and is a member of the Dean’s Advisory Council, graduated in June 2017. For these ceremonies, Griffin was honored to have been asked to represent the alumni by leading processions as Mace Marshal. This once-in-a-lifetime honor is awarded to one who has made a difference and maintains close ties to the college. “The honorary mace represents the president of the university, Janet Napolitano,” says Griffin. Last August, during a whale watching expedition off the coast of Newport Beach, Griffin stood on the deck of the ship explaining various sea creatures to a group of Jr. Lifeguards. She was in yet another role, this time as a certified cetacean naturalist. Interested in attending or donating to the Sleighbell event for the benefit of pediatric cancer? Go to: www. Sleighbell.org.
