CITY OF SAN CLEMENTE APPAREL FEATURING HISTORIC SAN CLEMENTE CREST
The San Clemente Crest was originally created and used by Ole Hanson as his logo in the 1920’s. Research from the San Clemente Historical Society shows the Crest can be found on Ole Hanson Co. real estate advertising, letterhead, and other items from that time. Photos of swimwear at the 1928 Olympic Trials at the Ole Hanson Beach Club were found to feature the
Crest, and the Crest is still in use by the City today adorning Marine Safety uniforms and the logo of the Municipal Golf Course. A variety of apparel was recently printed featuring the San Clemente Crest and is available for public purchase at the Ole Hanson Beach Club and the San Clemente Aquatics Center: Hats $18, T-Shirts $10, and Tank Tops $10.

Pacific Symphony Opens The New Year With Beethoven’s First And Only Violin Concerto Performed By Virtuoso Ray Chen
Violinist, Ray Chen Remarkably, Ludwig van Beethoven wrote but one violin concerto in his prodigious lifetime. While this alone makes the concerto special, it also has become one of the most widely played and popular works for the instrument. Under the spotlight for Pacific Symphony’s first concert of 2018, the concerto is famous for its highly spirited final movement. The work’s grandeur—every bit as lush as any of his piano concertos—reveals the amazing melodic and technical range of the violin, especially when played by Taiwanese-Australian violinist, Ray Chen. The Washington Post declared: “Chen can do pretty much anything he wants on the violin.” The orchestra also tackles Edward Elgar’s regal Symphony No. 1, a work performed over 100 times within a year of its premiere. It was hailed by The Musical Times as an “immediate and phenomenal success.” Led by international guest conductor and British native Michael Francis, the Symphony’s musical toast to the New Year takes place Thursday through Saturday, Jan. 1113, at 8 p.m. in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall. Tickets are $25-$126; Box Circle, $196-$206. A preview talk with Alan Chapman begins at 7 p.m. For more information or to purchase tickets, call (714) 7555799 or visit PacificSymphony.org. Reviewing a performance of Elgar’s Symphony No. 1 led by Francis, the Tampa Bay Times, wrote: “Elgar’s attempts to work out his demons brought out the most passion in Francis, who might have galloped off the stage with the military rhythms of the orchestra. A few magic Page 6
moments had everyone in the theater syncopated, tied together in the sights and sounds. And that felt most significant of all.” The concert opens with Beethoven’s extraordinary violin concerto. After sharing a thrilling performance with Chen a few years ago, the Symphony felt compelled to invite him back for this occasion. The Strad sums up Chen: “From the first notes there was no doubt of being in the presence of something special.” This first prizewinner in the 2008 International Yehudi Menuhin Violin Competition and 2009 Queen Elisabeth Music Competition will dazzle with Beethoven’s jewel. Despite a shaky genesis, Beethoven’s only violin concerto, admired for its innovative nature and sheer beauty, remains enormously popular. Composed in 1806 in Vienna for one of the best-known virtuosos of the day, Franz Clement, the concerto epitomizes the classical concerto form and exceeds the scale of any violin concerto before it. The melody and rhythmic material are among the most moving in the entire repertoire, and the finale is one of Beethoven’s most brilliant movements, exhilarating and energetic throughout. Filled with charming dialogues between the soloist and the rest of the orchestra, the mood of the work is unquestioningly vivacious. With nary a note out of place, the musical journey is sublime. However, despite Beethoven’s unfailing confidence in his work (bragging that violinists would still be playing it 50 years after his death), the concerto’s history is not golden.
The San Clemente News
Having completed the work in a mad rush just two days before its premiere, the surviving score is a mass of corrections and alternative versions. Clement had very little time to learn the work or rehearse it with the orchestra. And, during the concert, Clement also played a piece of his own while holding the violin upside down, which didn’t endear the critics, and may have adversely affected their reaction to the concerto. The press sourly wrote: “Beethoven could put his undoubtedly great talents to better uses.” As a result, the concerto went unappreciated and neglected—until Josef Joachim and Felix Mendelssohn championed it in the 1840s. It was then that it finally gained a reputation for being one of the greatest works of the genre. Written 21 years before Beethoven’s death, the composition’s immediate fate belied Beethoven’s belief in its success, but in the end, it was redeemed. Beethoven was simply not alive to know it. The struggle of the masters to claim their place in history doesn’t stop with Beethoven. Elgar (18571934)—who is credited with lifting British music out of the two centuries of mediocrity—was already 50 when he began what became his First Symphony. Technically, it was not his first stab at a symphony. Elgar had composed one inspired by Mozart 30 years earlier (only one movement survives), and in 1898, he attempted a symphony dedicated to the life of the English military-imperial hero General Gordon, which did not get far. By the early 20th century, people were wondering if the symphony had
any kind of a future at all. A number of composers of Elgar’s generation were moving away from the symphony, yet, he remained convinced of its worth and sustainability. In a 1905 lecture at Birmingham University, Elgar said: “It seems to me that because the greatest genius of our days, Richard Strauss, recognizes the symphonic-poem as a fit vehicle for his splendid achievements, some writers are inclined to be positive that the symphony is dead…but when the looked-for genius comes, it may be absolutely revived.” Elgar proved to be that genius. It was just a few years later, in December 1908, that he wrote and premiered his much-anticipated Symphony No. 1, which far exceeded his earlier attempts and broke the notion of the symphony’s demise. Thoroughly English, the Symphony is noble, regal and dramatic. Richly scored, luxuriantly melodic and full of gravitas, it was a huge success and very popular after its premiere. In fact, it was hailed as the greatest British symphony ever written. Unfortunately, it has not fared as well since— making it a rare treat on the concert stage. Fortunately, like Beethoven’s violin concerto, it is music that has transcended time and place to be admired by today’s generations. Pacific Symphony’s Classical Series is made possible by the Hal and Jeanette Segerstrom Family Foundation, with additional support from The Westin South Coast Plaza KUSC and PBS SoCal.

Dazzling New Years party looks from head to toe ‘Tis the season for glitzing up a sparkling holiday look. From office parties and family gatherings to community events and charity galas, now is the time to look and feel your best. It may be a hectic time of year, but with a little preparation and creativity you can dazzle all season long. Try these quick and easy tips from beauty and style expert Jennifer Walsh for a stellar head-to-toe holiday look: * Start with your hairstyle. Create a chic and classic look by pulling your hair back into a simple ponytail and embellish with a jeweled headband to shine in the festive holiday lights. Complete the look with understated stud earrings. * When it comes to makeup this holiday season, you can be more daring with your eyes and lips. A deep smoky eye in shades of gray, bronze or plum is sure to turn up any look. If you are looking to catch someone special under the mistletoe, nothing stands out more than a bold red lip. * For your nails, opt for a gel manicure in a neutral hue that will go from day to night. The gel finish will last for weeks without chipping - no matter how many presents you wrap or parties you attend. Moreover, it
New Year’s Eve is a night to have fun and celebrate the coming year, says Fire Chief Sam DiGiovanna. However, safety is a must when participating in New Years Day Festivities and Parties. Make sure you have a plan and follow these safety tips that will help ensure that you’re safe and sound when the clock strikes midnight, ringing in the New Year! • Designate a Driver: If you are going to be driving New Years Eve, don’t drink and drive. If you have a friend who does not prefer to drink, make sure they take the wheel • Be Alert: Be aware of your surroundings and how others are acting. Stay away from those who are out of control and might cause harm. Taking preventive measures is key. If someone is really intoxicated, prevent them from trying to drive or leaving with someone they do not know • Don’t Drive: If you don’t have to go behind the wheel, avoid it. More people will be driving under the influence on this particular night, so avoid a potentially dangerous accident by staying off the road. Otherwise, be alert and drive defensively. Most importantly, wear your seatbelt!
will save you the time, hassle and expense of multiple visits to the nail salon. * A sleeveless black dress is perfect for the holidays, allowing you to attend a variety of events by changing just a few accessories. Choose two elements of your look to introduce
shine, texture or color. I often go for a bold statement necklace or add a glitzy belt. On those chilly nights, incorporate a simple wrap or cardigan. * Finish your outfit by selecting a pair of eye-catching shoes with metallic studs or jeweled trim. They
are a great way to show off your personality and are sure to turn heads. Follow these tips to create a holiday style that is all your own and get ready to hit the town while enjoying the season’s festivities with family, friends and loved ones. BPT
R inging I t I n R ight !
If taking a cab is too expensive, crashing at a friend’s place nearby is a convenient solution • Stick Together: This way we can look out for our friends and family. Going out to parties and nightclubs means a fast-paced, crazy night, so be sure to travel in groups. Having a safety net around you in this environment is imperative • Monitor your alcohol Intake: A majority of people will be drinking on New Year’s Eve, and there is nothing wrong with that. Just be sure to pay attention to how much you and others are consuming. Be responsible • Don’t forget about your pets! They are just as much a part of the family as everyone else • Be careful with open flames: If you’re burning candles, incense or oil burners, remember to extinguish them before you turn in or before you leave the room they are burning in • Plain and simple, no fireworks! Everyone wants to have an unforgettable night (in a good way!). By simply using some common sense, we can keep it that way. Happy New Year! Fire Chief Sam DiGiovanna Fire Chief Sam DiGiovanna

Dino ’s LA Pad Cooler Than Ever!
All dressed up and ready to welcome a new Rat Pack, crooner Dean Martin’s former Beverly Hills Trousdale estate is now ready for the festive sounds of champagne bottles being uncorked. Owned and enjoyed by Dean with his Hollywood buddies and a slew of other friends from 1988 until his death in 1995, it was his bachelor pad after three unsuccessful marriages. He purchased the house a year after his son Dean Paul had been killed in an airplane crash, and though he had been a teetotaler most of his life, in opposition to his drunken stage image, in depression over the loss of his son, turned to alcohol and heavy use of prescription drugs. By now the original Rat Pack, consisting of Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., Martin, Peter Lawford and Joey Bishop, had grown smaller and evolved into the Summit and by the late 1980s, the Clan. Sinatra and Davis were worried about Martin and decided to get him out of the house and functioning again by designing a tour that would include the three of them, called Together Again. Scheduled for 29 dates, Martin only managed to perform through five of the sold-out shows claiming illness. Liza Minnelli was brought in to take his place. He returned to his Trousdale home, which at the time was the epitome of 1980’s glamour, where he lived the rest of his life. In 2014, developer Patrik Mirahmadi purchased the estate. Unlike many developers, Mirahmadi was very sensitive to the property’s Dean Martin legacy and wanted his renovation to express its illustrious past, but in 21st-century style. Stripped of all its outdated materials and opened up to flow gracefully throughout,
he created a grand contemporary entertainment space using the most elegant marbles, tiles and other surface materials that would stand out against the clean sharp lines of the interior that opened seamlessly to the outdoor living and entertaining area. Sited on a knoll on almost an acre overlooking the canyon and Pacific sunsets, the modern mansion is accessed via a long gated drive creating both privacy and security. At 10,047 square feet, it houses five bedrooms, twelve baths and an attached see-through, three-car garage. Moats have been used to accent the entrance walkway leading to the large walnut pivoting front door and again surrounding the elegant dining room on two sides which also has a temperature-controlled wine room enclosed inside a glass wall that displays up to 450 bottles. The long gallery with its skylights is a perfect space for an art collection and motorized glass walls at the end of the open living space recede to open the entire house to the outside entertainment area with pool, dining and lounging area and a full outdoor kitchen. With both indoor and outdoor bars large enough to seat over 100 guests, along with the expansive seating areas for living and dining, while the house is ideal for large scale entertaining, its warmth also invites intimacy. The listing agent is Jade Mills of Jade Mills Estates through Coldwell Banker. Three years in the making, Dean Martin’s former home is priced at $27.95 million or rented for $125,000 per month.

Romance of the Mission Gala is a S pectacular S uccess
The San Clemente News
Heather Headley Performs in the Great Stone Church with the Voices of Liberty Choir
Photos by: Carla Rhea The grounds of historic Mission San Juan Capistrano is the perfect venue for the spectacular Romance of the Mission Benefit Gala for over 450 guests. The Mission Preservation Foundation hosted the black-tie fundraiser which netted $221,000 towards the preservation of the Mission San Juan Capistrano. Along with the beautiful dinner, the evening included a magnificent concert in the ruins of the Great Stone Church that featured Tony and Grammy vocalist Heather Headley and San Juan Capistrano residents and philanthropists Sheila and Jim Peterson were honored. Headley’s moving performance began with an exquisite acapella version of “Amazing Grace” and culminated with a 12-member choir joining her on stage for a soulful rendition of “When the Swallows Come Back to Capistrano” followed by “My Song” and “Reach Out and Touch”. Mission San Juan Executive Director Mechelle Lawrence Adams was joined by Mission Preservation Foundation President George O’Connell to celebrate San Juan residents and Orange County philanthropists Brady O’Connell and Connie Spenuzza Sheila and Jim Peterson for their ongoing support of Mission preservation efforts. During the awards presentation, Lawrence Adams commented, “The Romance of the Mission gala is the foundation from which we spring-board to action for the next year. Tonight’s event gives us the financial – and in some cases spiritual and emotional where-with-all to keep up that fight – to do all that we can to make sure that this landmark is never forgotten as a place of inspiration, education and preservation.” The legendary Mission bells were rung to mark the end of the concert and guests were led through the Resurgam and into the Mission’s Central Courtyard for dinner presented by long-time community partner, The RitzCarlton, Laguna Niguel. Honored last year for their significant contributions to the Mission, The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel, under the leadership of General Manager Bruce Brainerd, presented a superb four-course plated dinner and generously donated a getaway experience of a two-night stay, dinner and breakfast for two and two 60-minute signature massages (valued at $10,000) as one of the event’s opportunity drawing items. Mechelle Lawrence Adams with Sheila and Jim Peterson with Lugano Diamonds donated a $5,000 GIA certified 5 carat Orange Bruce Brainerd Concert Artist Heather Headley Sapphire with a $5,000 certificate for a “setting” and Tadashi Shoji South Coast Plaza presented a custom dress experience with the designer valued at $7,500. Proceeds from the opportunity drawing were $21,000. Joining major benefit gala underwriters Microsemi - Sheila and Jim Peterson and The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel were O’Connell Family Foundation and EJ Tracy. Known as the “Jewel of the Missions,” Mission San Juan Capistrano is a historic landmark and museum that boasts of quality permanent exhibits featuring original artifacts as well as traveling and temporary exhibits on a wide variety of topics. The Mission is also Orange County’s only mission and is a site of inspiration, education, and preservation. The site includes such original buildings as the Serra Chapel, the ruins of the Great Stone Church, and original padres’ quarters. The Mission was founded on November 1, 1776 by Padre Junipero Serra as the seventh in the chain of the twenty-one California missions established by Spain. Over 70,000 fourth grade students visit the Mission as part of their field trip learning about Early California history. For more information, visit www.missionsjc.com.

New Year’s Eve Champagne By Julie Wimmer Champagne is a New Years Eve staple. Most people, when they hear the word Champagne, think celebration, and New Years Eve is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, celebrations in the world. Whether you are a Champagne and/or wine drinker or not, it is always fun to toast the new year with a sip of the bubbly stuff. Lucky for us, there are different kinds to choose from depending on your palate and budget. What are the different kinds of Champagne? Champagne, as most of us know, is basically sparkling wine, however, there are different types. There is sweet Champagne and dry Champagne, just like wine. When the bottle claims the Champagne is “Extra-dry,” that obviously means it is dry, however, “Brut” means it is the driest kind of Champagne. The sweet bottles of Champagne are called “Sec,” which is sweet, and “Demi-Sec,” which is the sweetest. Picking a dry Champagne or a sweet Champagne can depend on taste, food or price. My father is a wine connoisseur. He has been buying, tasting and testing wine’s since before I was born. We even had a full wine cellar, although it was raw (dug out from the basement with a metal rack put inside,) in our house growing up. Suggestions from my father: Sweet wine and Champagne, according to my father, go with cheeses, red meat and saltier fair. Dry wine and
Champagne are better paired with desserts, fruits and sweeter dishes like a chicken dish with a sweet sauce. Buying Champagne When my husband and I went on our honeymoon in Nantucket years ago, we decided to over-splurge one night on dinner. We’d heard a particular restaurant was worth it, and it was, so we even splurged on the Champagne we ordered to toast ourselves. Each glass, however, was $25. We picked out what was considered an expensive Champagne, and it was certainly delicious, however, that price is steep. You can get a great Champagne at $25 for the entire bottle. You just have to know how to pick it. There are many brands, Korbel, Taittinger , Veuve (with that familiar yellow label,), Dom Perignon, Freixenet and many more that we have seen at liquor stores or heard about from commercials or magazine ads. If you are having guests who know nothing about wine or Champagne and are only going to have a sip at midnight, then it’s okay to go with a Spumante (which you can get for $6) or Freixenet. If you care about the taste however, do some research. Dom Perignon is high end, and yes, delicious no matter what type you pick, but a bottle can run you $100 and up. If you have that sort of cash and want to spend it, great, you are very fortunate. Taittinger has been rated in wine magazines and they have bottles, both dry and sweet, that
start at $23. A nice pick for a dinner party or New Years Eve. Veuve is very popular, however they also have great prices (like Taittinger) and many fantastic tastes to choose from. This brand is a great option for a large party on New Years Eve.
6 healthy reasons to enjoy a slice of sweet cherry pie this season
The holidays are here, and for most of us that means time to indulge in some favorite treats. Fortunately, healthy doesn’t have to mean less delicious! If you’re looking for a good-for-you holiday dessert that can please even the most critical sweet tooth, a naturally sweet cherry pie could be just the ticket. You can have your pie and eat it too! Cherries provide a whole host of health benefits, so pull out the cherries you put up, dried or froze this summer and feel good about enjoying that slice of cherry pie. Here are six reasons why: * Natural, healthy sweetness: Dark sweet or Rainier cherries both offer pie lovers the perfect dose of juicy sweetness without excess sugar. Cherries boast a lower glycemic index than almost any other fruit, which means they release glucose slowly and evenly, helping you maintain a steady blood sugar level, leaving you feeling full longer and maybe even helping you maintain a healthy weight. * Anti-inflammatory superpowers: Does your arthritis flair up when the temperature drops? Research shows that cherries contain anthocyanins, which shut down the enzymes that cause tissue inflammation in the exact same way that ibuprofen does. So, enjoying cherries daily may help reduce your need for antiinflammatories. * Better sleep in every bite: Keeping your energy up throughout the busy holiday season can be a challenge, Page 14
but cherries can help you sleep better and feel more rested. Studies show that cherries are a natural source of melatonin, which helps control your body’s internal clock and regulate your sleep patterns. Try eating cherries about an hour before bedtime to help stabilize your sleep cycle. * Reduced chance of gout attacks: More than 8.3 million Americans suffer from gout, a painful form of arthritis commonly associated with elevated levels of uric acid in the blood. A study by researchers at the University of California at Davis found that people who ate sweet cherries showed reduced levels of uric acid, while a study by researchers at Boston University School of Medicine showed that people who ate cherries, in conjunction with their prescribed medicine, had a 35 to 75 percent lower chance of experiencing a gout attack. * Covert cancer-fighting agents: A study by the USDA’s Western Human Nutrition Research Center suggests that cherries possess cancer-fighting properties as well. Cherries contain ellagic acid, which appears to be a potent inhibitor to the growth of cancer cells. * Boosted fiber intake: It’s no secret that Americans don’t eat enough fiber - in fact, many of us are fiber deficient, falling short of the 25-35 grams per day recommended by the USDA Dietary Guidelines. Eating cherries can help you reach the current dietary recommendation of two

cups of fruit daily and can contribute to healthy weight maintenance, diabetes prevention and improved cardiovascular health. While fresh cherries are available only in the summer months, frozen or preserved cherries are an excellent alternative that allow you to enjoy the health benefits of cherries yearround. Northwest Cherry Growers recommend the following easy-tomake sweet cherry pie recipe to celebrate the season: Northwest Sweet Cherry Pie Ingredients 2 pie crusts, prepared 2 tablespoons cornstarch 2 tablespoons cherry juice, reserved from pitting (fresh) or from rinsing/rehydrating (preserved) 7 cups (pitted) sweet cherries 3/4 - 1 cup coconut sugar 1 tablespoon almond extract or bourbon-vanilla bean infusion Directions 1. Using a fork, whisk together the cherry water and cornstarch in a small bowl, then set aside. 2. Stem and pit the cherries, if not already done. 3. Fill pie dish with cherries and blend the remaining volume (about 2 cups or 1/4 the total volume) into a puree. Pour the remaining whole cherries into a mixing bowl and return to the refrigerator (if using frozen cherries). 4. Using a heavy-bottomed pan, gently heat the puree and sugar over low heat until the volume has reduced by 1/3 to 1/2. Constantly stir across
the bottom to prevent burning. 5. Once reduced, remove from the heat and stir in the cornstarch slurry until the mix regains translucency. Gently and briefly reheat if needed. Stir in the extract and let the mixture cool to room temperature. 6. Pour the cooled mixture over the whole cherries, gently stirring to incorporate. Pour the final cherry mixture into a 9- or 10-inch prepared pie crust, and top with a second crust. Pinch, crimp and vent the top crust. Brush with a beaten egg if so desired and sprinkle lightly with coconut sugar. 7. Bake at 375 degrees for 55-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is steadily bubbling. Aluminum foil may be used around the crust edges to prevent browning during the second half of the bake. Transfer the pie to a cooling rack, and most importantly, allow the pie to cool completely before serving (3-4 hours). To learn more about the health benefits of cherries, visit www.

Good Luck Foods to Serve for New Year Celebrations By Shelly McRae New Year celebrations symbolize the setting aside of the past and looking forward to a new year of prosperity and good health. When planning your New Year’s party, invite good fortune into your home with some of these good luck foods and traditions. Southern Traditions Hoppin’ John, a dish made from black-eyed peas and pork fat, is thought to have its origins from the African slaves of the early 1800s. As for its powers to attract good luck, that lies in a civil war legend. Lauren Salkeld, writing for Epicurous. com, explains that during a prolonged battle in Vicksburg, Mississippi food stores were nearly depleted when a large cache of black-eyed peas was discovered. The legume has since been considered a symbol of good luck. Serve the Hoppin’ John with an abundance of greens and cornbread. The greens, preferably collard greens, represent money, or more specifically, folding money, while the cornbread represents coin because it is the color of gold coin. European Traditions Greens aren’t just found in the good
luck lore of the south. In Germany and Ireland, green cabbage is served with braised pork or corned beef. Legumes also grace the tables of New Year revelers in the European tradition; lentils in particular are paired with pork, as the lentils resemble coin and pork has its own place in the celebrations. Pork as a New Year’s Eve celebratory food has origins from Spain, Portugal and Austria, among other European countries. The traditions include such delicious dishes as roasted suckling pig, roast pork, pork sausages and pigs’ feet. The pig is a good luck symbol for a prosperous New Year because of its habit of rutting forward; it digs in and pushes forward, letting nothing prevent it from reaching its goal. Hispanic Traditions The tradition of eating a grape at each stroke of the clock at midnight on New Year’s Eve originated in Spain, and was a response to a grape surplus in 1909. It was a practical solution and is now associated with foretelling the fortunes of the coming year. The tradition is common throughout Mexico and South America. The idea behind this tradition is
to eat a grape at each chime of the clock, not to be confused with each second of a countdown to midnight. At midnight, in Spain, the clock in the Plaza del Sol chimes 12 times. A chime lasts just long enough to eat a grape- quickly. Each grape represents one month of the coming year. The first grape is indicative of January, then, and
if sour, January may be a difficult month. Along with the tradition of 12 grapes is custom of placing a coin in the pan dulce, a Mexican sweet bread. The baker in the family hides a coin in one of the treats, and the recipient of the coin is said to have good luck throughout the year.
5The steps for a successful new years holiday gathering holiday season is about interesting snacks, rather than a cocktail pairing plus a selection of of cards, candy canes and willing
spending quality time with family and friends. Many people will host gatherings and parties during this time of year. Keep stress levels at an all-time low by taking some seamless shortcuts to pull off a get together of any size - whether a football watch party, gift exchange or even a low-key movie night with friends. 1. Prep your home. Before everyone arrives, double-check your home for the things that you won’t want to bother with when you’re having fun catching up with friends and family. Did you put out an extra roll of toilet paper and extra hand towels in the bathroom? Did you lower the thermostat to account for extra bodies? Did you empty the trash and recycling? Your partying self will thank you later. 2. Create simple, festive décor. Swap traditional, expensive floral centerpieces for festive, affordable table decorations, using pinecones, faux cranberries and greenery like pine or eucalyptus. Simply place a few lanterns along the center of the table and surround them with fresh greenery, cranberries and pinecones. You can even add a little bit of sparkle by adding glittery candles, ornaments or ribbons! 3. Serve unexpectedly delicious snacks. Offer guests a variety of
four-course meal. Easy-to-prep egg rolls, wontons, potstickers and crab Rangoon from Pagoda(R) Snacks made with fresh-cut veggies and fromscratch wrappers are an unexpectedly delicious option. Available in a variety of flavors, these hot snacks bring a crave-worthy crunch to gatherings. And let’s be honest, these crispy bites are light years beyond the standard fare of chips and crackers. 4. Drink and be merry. Consider the food you’re serving and pair it with complementary drinks. A custom
the traditional favorites will ensure everyone gets what they prefer and has the opportunity to try something new. Try an Asian Pear Mojito or sake cocktail, which go great with Pagoda Snacks. 5. Game on. Whether you have a room full of adults or kids, games are a great way to break the ice and encourage guests to start mingling. Most people have played Spoons, and a simple way to make it into a holiday game is to swap spoons for candy canes. All you need is a deck
participants. Bonus if you wrap up a mystery gift for the winner. Now that you’ve learned the steps for success, it’s time to plan a holiday party of you own. Follow these tips and your guests will surely be impressed. To learn more about Pagoda Snacks and to find a store near you, visit PagodaSnacks.com.

TO REACH THE HIGH INCOME HOMEOWNERS OF San CLemente, WHO WOULD LIKE TO BUY FROM YOU.
Sandra White Display Advertising
San Clemente News, publishers of Coto de Caza News l Ladera Ranch News l Mission Viejo News l Newport News l San Clemente News
QUARTER PAGE COLOR This month I have terrific low prices on quarter page full color ad packages. Plus you can choose to either pre pay or pay as you go. But remember these rates apply only if you order this month. Smart business owners and marketing experts agree that the best advertising program is one which brings you clients and customers. Savvy business managers are wise to be concerned about high volume publications that don’t deliver a strong local audience that would generate immediate income for your business. Major daily newspapers like the Times and the Register reach nearly a million readers, but do you really need to pay their high prices to reach your customers in San Clemente, Talega, Dana Point? While some glossy monthly magazines are stylish, their costly rates may not be realistic compared to choosing a highly effective newspaper like these reasonably priced local newspapers which are received by your most likely preferred customers of high income homeowners. This advertising costs you far less money. These five local newspapers are attractive, effective and affordable. Let’s talk today!

If you don’t know her already, get to know Kelly Bennett, the top society columnist in Orange County. She also has the top rated radio show and television program “Breakfast with Gary and Kelly.

We’d like to share some actual quotes from local San Clemente area realtors: “SOLD THE SAME DAY that the ad appeared in the San Clemente News, SOLD THE SAME WEEKEND that the ad appeared in the San Clemente News, BUYERS CAME IN WAVING the ad that appeared in the San Clemente News.” Two factors determine how fast a house will sell: 1.Choose a skilled real estate professional 2.

Why pay more to reach your most preferred customers? Smart business owners and marketing experts agree that the most expensive advertising is advertising that doesn’t work. Savvy business managers are wise to be concerned about high volume publications that don’t deliver a strong local audience that would bring you customers. Major daily newspapers like the Times and the Register reach nearly a million readers, but do you really need to pay their high prices to reach your customers in San Clemente. 8. Why do San Clemente Readers read the San Clemente News? In the year 2006, the Superior Court of Orange County adjudicated (approved) The San Clemente News as the official newspaper for San Clemente. That’s why you regularly see stories about the San Clemente City Council, Chamber of Commerce, and prominent San Clemente people in the San Clemente News.
