Don’t forget to clear hydrants
It’s winter in the state line and that means plenty of snow. With snow and ice accumulation over the next several months fire hydrants can become difficult to locate or prevent the fire department from accessing them. The North Park Fire Protection District asks residents to lend a helping hand and please consider adopting a nearby fire hydrant and ensure it remains clear of snow or ice accumulation by clearing a three foot perimeter around it and clearing a path from the hydrant to the street. If you are unable to clear a nearby fire hydrant, please ask for help from a family member or neighbor and if you know of neighbors that are sick or disabled please clear the area around the fire hydrant for them.

(StatePoint) Holiday gift trends come and go, but books are a perennial classic. And the volumes that make the best gifts feature stunning visuals and well-designed content that educates while it entertains. Here are six titles for everyone on your list: Nature Lovers For a journey through scenic and rich animal habitats, give “Wildlife of the World.” Portraitstyle photography brings you “face-to-face” with individual animals, from the shaggy musk ox foraging in the Canadian high arctic, to the rock-climbing gelada monkey of Ethiopia. Engrossing profiles narrate how they interact with their environments, mate, survive, and even play. Produced in association with the Smithsonian Institution, the book also features an 80-page illustrated reference section on the animal kingdom Theater-Goers Gift the complete history of the musical with “Musicals: The Definitive Illustrated Story.” This behind-the-scenes tour of the best-loved musicals uses rich photography, memorabilia, and behind-the-scenes gossip to tell the story of more than 140 notable stage and film productions and their creators. Star Wars Enthusiasts Wacky trivia await readers of “Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know,” from who cleans the floors of the Death Stars and what takes 1,000 years to digest its victims. From movie-making trivia to quirky facts you never knew, this guide will excite new and old fans alike of Star Wars Rebels, Star Wars: The Clone Wars and the Star Wars movies I-VI.

Crystal Lake businesses compete in gingerbread contest By Anne Eickstadt, Correspondent
D
owntown Crystal Lake has developed a unique fundraiser formed as a gesture of goodwill and giving back to the community. A number of businesses in the downtown area are displaying Gingerbread Creations. These are displayed near a countertop Salvation Army kettle. Everyone is invited to view each Business Gingerbread Creation and vote for their favorite. Voting is simple. Every dollar deposited in the Salvation Army kettle corresponding to the Business Gingerbread Creation is worth one vote. The business that collects the most dollars/votes by Christmas Eve will be the winner of the 2015 Business

The Crystal Lake Bank & Trust is showing a gingerbread armored car filled with edible valuables.
Gingerbread Creation Contest. In reality, the Salvation Army and the people they serve in our community are the true winners. So, keep in mind, this is the only time that it is legal to stuff the ballot box! The current list of participants includes: Agnes Oh!, Benedicts La Strata, Crystal Lake Bank & Trust, Crystal Lake Natural Health Care, Evolve, Giorgio’s Pizzeria & Pub, Kitchen Outfitters, Le Petit Marche, Marvin’s Toy Store, Out of the Box, Penny & Izzy’s, and Yours & Meyn. If you are inspired to bake your own gingerbread creation, you can join the 13th Annual Gingerbread Contest and register at Kaleidoscoops, 53 N. Williams Street, Crystal Lake. The public will be able to vote for your entry – but this time there is only one vote allowed per person. Here are the recommended recipes:
Gingerbread Recipe 1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened 1/2 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup molasses 3-1/2 cups all purpose flour 1 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. cinnamon 1 tsp. ginger 1/4 tsp. cloves 1/3 cup water Cream butter and sugar thoroughly with electric mixer. Beat in the molasses. After blending all the dry ingredients, add alternately with the water to the butter-sugar mixture. The dough might become too stiff, so the last flour addition may need to be blended by hand. At this point the dough may be refrigerated for up to one week. Make sure you take it out 3 hours ahead of baking to become workable. 2-3 batches will be needed for each house. To bake gingerbread, place about 1/3 of the dough on a

cookie sheet that has been lightly greased with oil. Using a lightly dusted rolling pin, roll the dough to approximately 1/4 inch thickness. A dampened towel under the cookie sheet will prevent it from slipping while rolling. Trace pattern onto dough. Remove extra dough and bake in 375o oven for 8-10 minutes. Make sure the dough is baked all the way through. After baking, let the gingerbread cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes. While warm, place the pattern back on top and trim around the edges. After 10 minutes, remove to cooling rack and cool completely. It is best to bake the house 48 hours before building. Recipe provided by Melody Stanko Royal Icing 3 Tblsp. meringue powder 4 Cups sifted confectioner’s sugar 6 Tblsp. water (1 T. less for stiffer icing) Beat all ingredients at low speed for 7-10 minutes, or until
