Meet our Adminstrator DOUG HAWKINS RN
D
oug Hawkins has been part of our community for generations and is giving back to the community he cares about. “I feel it is my duty to give back to the people of El Dorado County and help ensure quality healthcare.”
Doug graduated from Ponderosa High School and began his career as a nurse at age 21. “Working with the Elderly is a calling and passion for me. My goal is to help keep Skilled Nursing up here in the foothills and for families to not take their loved ones out of the area for their care,” Doug commented. Doug takes pride is serving as the Hospital Administrator for Western Slope Health Center here in Placerville. “Our Hospital was awarded the Centers for MediCare 5 STAR rating and we occupy up to 99 people. We average close to 40 admissions and discharges a month with a home return rate of 92%.” Western Slope Health Center is a Post-Acute Hospital caring for those requiring short term rehabilitative services. We employ talented registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapist, registered dietician, nurse practitioners and our house physician. “My hobbies, well to know me is to know I enjoy my wife and children on our small ranch in Shingle Springs. It’s summer-time which means the County Fair. This is my favorite time of year! I love raising chickens and goats.” Being an advocate for youth programs, Doug has been active with coaching soccer and little league, and mentoring 4-H kids with livestock raising for the El Dorado County Fair.
Stop by and meet Doug and his staff at Western Slope Health Center!

editor’s note
W
orking for a magazine was my lifelong dream. I ’d s e e n c o u n t l e s s rom-coms portraying it as being a glamorous profession—one where editors are dressed to the nines, plugging away from nine-to-five in floor-to-ceiling glass skyscrapers, while getting to jet set around the globe—and knew it was my calling. Though my dream has essentially come true, the behindthe-scenes reality of magazine publishing is much different than The Devil Wears Prada depicts. Here at Style, our HQ is one story and our (tiny but mighty) editorial team often (OK, always) can be found wearing jeans, flats and comfy tees that likely came from Gap over Gucci. What’s more, the deadlines are relentless, the stress is high, and just when you think you can come up for air, an email arrives that requires you to extinguish yet another fire. But, considering my motto is “I’d rather be busy than bored,” I love every minute of it. Plus, the people I work with are like family, the glossy print product we produce every month is rewarding, and the perks are a definite plus. Speaking of the latter, earlier this summer I was invited to attend a fund-raiser for Placer Land Trust called The ART of Locally Grown, a hyper-local five-course dinner paired with Placer County beer and wine where we got to meet the people behind the —Benjamin Franklin pours (Andy Klein from The Monk’s Cellar and Kevin Stevenson from Casque Wines). Hosted by Fork N’ Road Productions and held under a balmy, star-filled sky at Westfield Galleria at Roseville, it was one of those magical nights where I had to pinch myself to make sure I wasn’t dreaming. Not only did I leave feeling full, buzzed (don’t worry, Uber took me home) and grateful for a job that allows me to experience events like this, but with a new appreciation for our local craft beer and wine scene. The soiree also served as inspiration for this month’s feature, “A Local Beer & Wine Lover’s Guide to the Region,” where you can get a taste for everything that’s literally brewing in our backyard. Flip to page 47 to meet a handful of local brewmasters and winemakers making a splash on the scene, tour tasting rooms that offer amenities like live music, no tasting fees and games galore, discover restaurants that offer beer and wine flights, and take a bite out of our favorite booze-filled dishes. Whether you prefer pints or Pinot, the multi-page spread promises to please. Though (according to chemistry) alcohol is a solution, it’s not always the answer— especially when it comes to marital bliss—so we reached out to local marriage and family therapist Bob Parkins to give us “5 Healthy Relationship Habits” in Health & Wellness. We hope his advice brings clarity, and paves the way for sparks to fly once again. As always, we have plenty more in store too—from “Back-to-School Essentials” in Swag, to a roundup of local authors in The 10 Spot, and the recipe to make Coconut Unfried Shrimp in Taste—so sit back, relax and enjoy these hot August nights with Style by your side (glass of craft beer or wine optional). Cheers! — Megan megan@stylemg.com

Watching Ghost Adventures! It raises so many questions—why are ghosts only up at night? If they’re invisible and, I assume, weightless, why can we hear their footsteps? Why do they knock stuff over? I’d be more impressed if they went around tidying up. But, a part of me wants to believe in ghosts so badly, I suspend these questions and more for an hour on way too many Saturday nights and trip out on Zac and his buddies’ investigations, even though I know my time could be much more well spent catching up on Better Call Saul. —Tom Mailey

How can I make the most of my shopping day when it comes to time and money? Start off relaxed, with the mind-set that you might not find exactly what you’re looking for but something may very well catch your eye and become your absolute new favorite. Also, the sale racks can have amazing prices, but don’t settle for something just because it’s on sale. Always remember to make sure what you’re buying either makes you feel great or makes you happy; if it doesn’t it, don’t buy it—regardless of price!

Q&A WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO YOUR YOUNGER SELF?
Felipe Rodriguez
Never allow anyone to discourage you from becoming anything you want to become. It’s your attitude, desire, dedication, and trust in the future that gives you the confidence to follow your heart, and ultimately allows you to persevere and accomplish anything. WHAT COMES TO YOU NATURALLY?
Being kind to others.
BIGGEST LIFE INSPIRATION?
My grandfather, Rosendo Alvarez. He was a bracero back in the 1940s, where he worked for nine months out of each year (for almost 20 years) within California’s agricultural fields. His example and hard work paved the way for me to take full advantage of the opportunities set before me. FAVORITE HUMANITARIAN CAUSE?
Children. It brings joy to my heart when I see a child smile. Their innocence compares to nothing else. Some of my fondest memories are the times I spent volunteering at a children’s hospital in Chicago while completing Hospital Corpsman training and visiting burn camp. After all those children had gone through, their laughter put everything else into perspective. BEST WORDS OF WISDOM YOU’VE RECEIVED?
“Never pass up an opportunity.”— Retired Army Master Sergeant Carlton Taylor.

olsom Fire Chief Felipe Rodriguez has fond memories of Christmas when he was seven or eight years old and the firefighters of Station 15 in San Francisco handed out toys to families in need—including his own. The kindness they showed his family still sticks with him. “It inspired me to become a firefighter,” he shares. “It made me appreciate life and take advantage of every opportunity I was given.” Despite the many obstacles in his path, Rodriguez fulfilled his dream of becoming a firefighter in his own right. He also spent over nine years in the U.S. Navy Reserve; after 9/11, he was deployed to Guantanamo Bay in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Upon his return, he continued working his way up the fire service

ranks, from firefighter to division chief, and was hired as Folsom Fire Department’s chief in June, where his goal is to form deeper partnerships with fire personnel, city staff and local businesses through the Folsom Chamber of Commerce—in addition to upholding the department’s reputation of “service with a smile.” Now a happily married father of five, Rodriguez hasn’t forgotten the lessons of his childhood and has firm plans for the department to continue participating in the annual Christmas toy drives.“You never know when a Christmas toy drive will inspire a child to [become] a firefighter—and maybe even a fire chief,” he says, acknowledging that kids should be able to become anything they want. “We should do everything we can to help and guide them.” —Amber Foster

Gloria Davis recently moved to Folsom and “didn’t know a soul.” She’s now a regular at the senior center and has “all sorts of friends.” Betty Becker says that “talking to and getting to know all different types of people” has been one of the reasons she’s been coming to the
center for the past nine years. A rotating schedule of free activities— from games, movies and book discussions, to bridge, and a popular “Off-Key Singers” group that meets Mondays and Fridays— takes place in the lounge, and everyone is invited to join in, whether they’re a regular or a rookie. The lounge maintains a stock of books, magazines, board games and puzzles, for those who want to engage in some quiet activity. Starting in September, free dances take place the first Friday of the month. Kick up your heels with a line dance lesson at 1:30 p.m. and then practice your new moves and enjoy DJ tunes from the ’50s and beyond until 3:30 p.m. The Folsom Senior Citizens Club welcomes new members to its meetings twice a month at the center for lunch,
games and occasional guest speakers. The center also provides space for seniors and caregivers to meet with a variety of community support services and agencies. The Meals on Wheels program provides a hot lunch at 11:30 a.m. Monday-Friday; seniors may also bring a packed lunch and enjoy the mealtime companionship. Folsom Parks and Recreation offers a variety of classes for seniors, including fine arts and ceramics, yoga and Zumba, driver’s safety and even free guitar lessons. Those with limited mobility can take part in chair-based yoga and a “Sittin’ Fitness” class; free educational workshops are also offered throughout the year. Don’t miss this month’s “Hot August Afternoon” party on August 11 at 1:30 p.m. featuring live entertainment and light refreshments.

Entry fees are $50 for those racing with one dog ($55 on race day), $40 for those racing without a dog ($50 on race day) and $10 for each additional dog. “The best part of the event is seeing the dogs enjoy the ‘water stations’ that we set out for them after the race, where kiddie pools filled with water serve Photos by Worawan Driskill.

STEVE MURPHY & JAVIER PEÑA “THE TRUE STORY OF PABLO ESCOBAR”
THU SEP 28
The inspiration for the Golden-Globe nominated series NARCOS comes to the Harris Center. Former DEA Special Agents Steve Murphy and Javier Peña were at the center of the largest, most complex and high-profile investigation of its time. With tactful humor and rarely seen visuals, Steve and Javier share their experiences in hostile and often life-threatening conditions— all leading to the capture and downfall of the narco-terrorist Pablo Escobar.

Roma Turoff Lasting Impression by HEATHER L. BECKER
O
il painter Roma Turoff creates vibrant, lush scenes of the natural beauty that surrounds our region and the world. “I’ve studied under
painters who lean toward impressionism and have always admired artwork that depicts this style,” Turoff explains. “The looseness, boldness and vividness of the colors they used were major influences on which direction I wanted to pursue.” With each finished piece, it’s her goal to create relatable art that makes viewers happy. Peruse Turoff’s paintings next month at Placerville Arts Association’s Studio Tour and at Harris Center’s Bank of America Gallery, in addition to Visionary Realty Group in El Dorado Hills.

the arts Summertime in El Dorado Hills
HLB: HOW HAS YOUR ARTWORK PROGRESSED? RT: I grew up in India, and as a child and young adult, I worked with watercolors, since that’s all that was available to us at the time. Throughout college and most of my working life, I couldn’t pursue painting, [but] I knew I’d pick it up later. While living and working in Arizona, I started painting again. [After] I moved to El Dorado Hills, I studied under Anita Wolff, a well-known impressionist painter who’s had a great impact on my work. I continue to take further instruction and attend workshops. HLB: WHAT’S THE MOST VALUABLE ARTISTIC ADVICE YOU’VE BEEN GIVEN? RT: To paint what I enjoy painting and be true to myself. Also, devote sufficient time to improving my technique. HLB: HOW DO YOU INTERPRET THE INSPIRATION YOU FIND IN NATURE, AND DO YOU HAVE ANY FAVORITE SPOTS TO VISIT FOR THIS? RT: When I look around at all the beauty and lush colors surrounding us, I’m in awe. I love painting landscapes and florals that reflect this beauty, [and hope] the people who see my artwork appreciate it like I do. One doesn’t have to travel far, as this area has a lot to offer artists. I’ve painted the hills, lakes and streams around here during the various seasons. We also have some of the most beautiful trees, and I love painting landscapes that revolve around them. I like visiting Hope Valley and the Sierras in the fall to take in the flamboyant colors.

HLB: HOW DO YOU OVERCOME SETBACKS? RT: Sometimes the fear of not being able to capture the subject matter and do it justice holds me back, but it generally works out if I just go for it. HLB: IF YOU COULD GO ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD TO PAINT, WHERE WOULD YOU GO? RT: My visit to Provence, France, left me breathless, and I’d like to go back to Giverny, France, and the Amalfi Coast and Tuscany in Italy, because of each area’s unique characteristics. romaturoffart.com

5 Healthy Relationship Habits by BOB PARKINS, LMFT
they’ll eventually be able to change them. Failing to accept each other, complete with flaws, will lead to resentments and judgments that will undermine the fabric of love, respect and intimacy. If you don’t think you can accept your partner’s flaws early in your relationship, consider finding someone you can fully accept before committing to a lifelong partnership. FIGHT TO RESOLVE, NOT TO WIN. Fights in healthy relationships are used to solve conflicts. Fighting to win, or yield power over each other, has no usefulness in a relationship. The essential ingredient to resolving conflict is mutual respect. Listen to what your partner says and acknowledge their feelings, give each

Make your relationship happy, healthy and long-lasting by following the five tips below. SHOW LOVE DAILY, NOT JUST WHEN YOU’RE “FEELING IT.” Love is ultimately a choice. People who say, “I love you, I’m just not in love with you,” are usually searching for the feeling they experienced in the honeymoon stage. Expecting the excitement and emotions of the relationship’s early days to be the indicator of love will always give romance an expiration date. These couples never transition into the security of a committed, attached courtship. Healthy couples have made a lifestyle decision to express their love through words and actions; they make daily choices to foster their friendship and “feed” the relationship—regardless of fleeting emotions of the moment. These couples report higher long-term satisfaction and—although intensity varies—have a deeper love and affection for each other. DON’T FORGET TO DO YOU. People in healthy relationships have learned not to neglect nurturing their own individual needs. Compared to those who regularly practice a good balance of self-care, couples who focus all their time and energy on their partner’s needs, have less of themselves to give back to their relationship. It’s wonderful when couples share friends and interests, but it’s vital for the relationship, as well as the individuals, to enjoy separate interests and friendships.

ABANDON ALL HOPE OF YOUR PARTNER EVER CHANGING. Most people in long-term relationships can make a list of their partner’s flaws. Someone in a healthy relationship has learned to accept their partner the way they are: imperfect. Idealistic, less self-aware people tend to overlook their partner’s flaws in the beginning of the relationship, while subconsciously expecting

other the benefit of the doubt, and find mutual ground. If things get too heated or intense, agree to take a short break and set a time to come back together to resolve the disagreement. If you remain stuck and unable to successfully resolve disputes, get help from a therapist or marriage counselor. GIVE WITH NO EXPECTATIONS OR STRINGS. The idea that healthy relationships have two individuals equally giving 50-percent effort to the whole is a great big myth. The expectation that your partner will match your efforts is not only unrealistic, but it inevitably leads to disappointment and resentment. Healthy couples don’t keep score; they find joy in giving of themselves, and do so without expecting anything in return. What typically results is two individuals aiming to give as close as they can to 100 percent, with a symbolic sum of 200-percent effort.

El Dorado Hills Promise Foundation Building a Brighter Tomorrow

ome things you don’t have to promise. You just do.” This
quote (from the book The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey) sums up the mission and the momentum of the El Dorado Hills Promise Foundation, a group that’s focused on building a better tomorrow for El Dorado Hills. The foundation seeks to aid in continuing improvements of public parks, education, senior and youth services, and recreation programs. After all, what would this foothills community be without these wonderful amenities? Allan Priest was introduced to the organization when he was elected to the El Dorado Hills Community Services District’s Board of Directors. Now serving as the foundation’s president, he speaks about its

significance for the community. “I strongly believe that we’re all responsible [for providing] time and resources to improve our community and support those in need,” he says. “Since philanthropic support through this or other local non-profit organizations is so important to the fiber of El Dorado Hills, I believe the foundation has a unique opportunity to make it an even better place to live and play.” The El Dorado Hills Promise Foundation (previously the EDH CSD

Senior Center, which services thousands of local seniors each month This summer and continuing into the fall, the foundation is sponsoring “Food Trucks,” a monthly fund-raiser at the EDH Community Park. “These events are a fun way to bring together a host of local vendors and food trucks, [with] music and activities, while increasing awareness and supporting specific projects or grants,” Priest says. Looking forward to 2018, a Bark in the Park event is planned to raise funds and awareness for pets and pet owners, and another community fun run may also be in the works. “As the CSD looks to build and sustain new parks through more than $100 million in identified needs over the next 10 years, now it’s more important than ever to pursue public and private funds to make our community even greater,” Priest emphasizes. “We encourage and ask anyone with an interest in making a difference to get involved and support the El Dorado Hills Promise Foundation—through time, talents or donations. No amount of time or funding is too small, and it can make a significant difference to our community.” facebook.com/edhpromise

Green with Envy 3 Steps to a Fresh Farmhouse by KERRIE L. KELLY, ASID
W
e all know the farmhouse look: lots of reclaimed wood accented by airy white spaces and décor that seems to have walked out of an old-timey barn and into a contemporary kitchen. Though the style is
beautiful, it’s saturated the interior design market with its seemingly uniform look. Instead of the predicatable design—full of minimalist home accessories, reclaimed wood tables and barn doors—we breathed new life into this client's home by creating the look with an organic spin and a focus on fresh coloration and lively accents. Read on to learn how you can accomplish the same clean and contemporary style in your own space.
1
USE A FRESH FOCAL COLOR AS YOUR FOUNDATION
What we’ve found that’s often missing in the quintessential farmhouse look is color. Because Instagram and other social media platforms focus on the beauty of simplicity, like blank white walls and minimalist style, homes have begun to reflect that over-simplified look. And while it may be pretty on Pinterest, it lacks dimension and authenticity in real life. To overcome this barrier, we used a bright, fresh green as our foundational color and made sure to use variations of it throughout the home. In the living room, it’s found on throw pillows, greenery and window coverings, and in the nursery it’s

splashed on the wall as a soothing accent.
If you’re against any color darker than eggshell, that’s totally fine, too. Another great way to add dimension without committing to a color is through texture. In the kitchen, we opted for beautiful white handmade subway tile and crisp white cabinetry. To warm up the space, we topped the counters with rope place settings, a rustic cutting board and metallic accents like bowls and silverware. The same addition of texture can be seen in the guest spaces, too. Textured linen window coverings, reclaimed wooden chairs and bedding with a little bit of pattern help balance the neutral coloration of the space with cozy and dynamic design elements.
3
MAKE YOUR FAVORITE SPACES LIVABLE
Our last hint is this: While you want your favorite spaces—like the master bedroom and living room—to be beautiful, you also want them to be livable. When designing around a farmhouse look, choose materials, colors and details that will allow for the dog to jump on the couch, the kids to run through the hallways, or the wine to spill on the rug. The most important quality to design is how a space makes you feel, and if it’s too fussy and buttoned-up, you won’t want to wind down. Consider using performance fabrics on Kerrie L.

ASK THE DOCTOR
DON’T LET AN OLD INJURY Hold You Back “Years of physical labor wore out my knees. I wasn’t in pain, but stability was an issue. I’m retired, and one of my hobbies is showing my champion Alaskan Malamute. I’m athletic for my age and exercise daily, but I didn’t have confidence I’d have stability running around in a show ring. I knew I wanted my knee repaired to restore my strength, flexibility and range of motion so I can keep doing what I love. At my first appointment with Dr. Brandon Beamer, he was amazed at how much he could manipulate my knee. My ACL reconstruction was a huge success. Seven months after surgery, I’m 100% again. This surgery and Dr. Beamer’s strict protocols as a sports medicine specialist gave me the tools to fully recover. I really want other people to be able to experience that satisfaction. I’ve been back to showing my dog and recently my dog won Best of Breed at the Sacramento Dog Show.” –Kevin Oliver, Grizzly Flats

Q
I sprained my knee a while ago. It’s healed, but now I don’t trust it to be stable. How do I get it back to feeling normal?
A
If you sprained your knee, felt a pop, and now your knee gives out, you likely have an ACL tear. It’s not normal to have your knee buckle and feel unstable even after the pain goes away. First, see your primary care doctor. After an exam, your doctor may order an x-ray or an MRI to determine the extent of your injury and if you’ll need a referral for physical therapy or to an orthopedist for surgery. You can live with a torn ligament if you’re not experiencing pain, but you may have to give up certain activities that stress your knee. Consider reconstructive ACL surgery if your knee gives out during routine activity, if you’re an athlete and want to continue with your sport, or if you want to prevent further injury and avoid arthritis. If you have an old or new injury and you think it might be time to consult with an orthopedist, count on the experts at Marshall Orthopedics and Sports Medicine for help. With a new office in El Dorado Hills to compliment the Placerville location, you have convenient options available. Marshall has five orthopedists on staff that specialize in the following areas: • Minimally invasive techniques • Sports medicine • Total joint replacement of the shoulder, hip and knee • Direct anterior approach hip replacement • Arthroscopic surgery of the hand, hip, shoulder and knee • Foot and ankle surgery • Fracture care • Spine surgery • Injection therapy

ike Mraz is a down to earth kinda guy. Actually, “down to dirt” might be more accurate. A keen devotee of all things wheeled, Mraz recalls, “My childhood was pretty much riding motorcycles and playing in the dirt.” Aside from being the owner and brewmaster of Mraz Brewing, not much has changed; Mraz is a passionate hiker, motorcycle rider and mountain biker, and just recently completed his first Mike Mraz mpany Ironman in Santa Rosa. But whether he’s Mraz Brewing Co Suite 510, El Dorado Hills, indoors brewing beer or playing outside, ive, 2222 Francisco Dr ingcompany.com ew br az mr at the end of the day, , 44 916-934-07 he’s a competitor. Four years ago, in June 2014 (a mere 13 months after Mraz Brewing’s grand opening), Mraz won two gold medals at the California State Fair for their Window of Opportunity Belgian Tripel and The Cardinal (a Flandersstyle red ale). At the time, it seemed like overnight success, but Mraz was no stranger to competition. He moved to El Dorado Hills from Vacaville 11 years ago and started homebrewing a year later. Says Mraz, “I started homebrewing because I’ve always liked craft beer and the experimentation that goes along with it.” Experiment he did, and just two years into it, Mraz was named “California Homebrewer of the Year” in 2008 and 2009. The Maltose Falcons, the oldest homebrew club in America, bestowed Mraz with coveted awards as well. With such a flair for homebrewing, it was a foregone conclusion that Mraz should open his own brewery, and in 2013, Mraz Brewing was born. If you think all that winning might give Mraz a big head (unintended beer pun; you’re welcome), think again. Mraz says with a laugh, “I opened the place and hired myself. Nobody else wanted the position.”

he Monk’s Cellar is relatively new to Downtown Roseville, having opened in 2014, but Andy Klein is no newcomer. His first brewing job was with Sacramento Brewing Company back in 1995, he graduated the American Brewers Guild in 1996, and has worked in and around the Greater Sacramento region ever since. But he always dreamed of opening his own brewery “with a European/ Belgian vibe.” The fact that Klein, along with business partners Paul Gould and Tom Rotelli, was finally Andy Klein able to realize his dream in his hometown has The Monk’s Cella made it all the more special. “I grew up in Roseville, r 240 Vernon Stree t, Roseville, not far from where we 916-786-6665, mo nkscellar.com opened The Monk’s Cellar. I remember as a child when Downtown Roseville was the place to be. We went down there for shopping, to watch movies, go out to dinner, etc. It’s nice to be a part of the renaissance and redevelopment of downtown.” Experience lends weight to The Monk’s Cellar’s success. Between Klein and co-brewmaster Peter York there’s a combined 40 years of experience (and according to Klein, between the two of them they’ve won well over 100 awards)—and that may be what ultimately makes their beer stand out from the crowd. “I’m fortunate to have Peter York as a cobrewmaster (quite honestly he does most of the work)... we both subscribe to making a variety of classic-style beers that are balanced and that everyone can enjoy. Many breweries are focusing on the latest craze in the industry; we believe in making great beer that has stood the test of hundreds of years from around the world.” Amen to that!

eff Meyers’ path to winemaking was a short, straight line of pure happenstance. At a UC Davis football game, during a conversation with a teammate on the sideline, Meyers learned that UC Davis offered enology (winemaking) as a major. (His hastily declared major at that time was bacteriology.) Intrigued, Meyers took an introductory course the following quarter and, as Meyers recalls, “Two weeks into the class I transferred into enology and never looked back. It was the best decision I ever made.” After graduating first in his class, he took a job two months later at Montevina, which became Terra s er d’Oro. Starting out, Meyers recalls that ey Jeff M o Or d’ the biggest challenge was the difference h, rra Te Plymout ah School Road, 20680 Shenando between theory and practice. “I left school m co radorowinery. 209-245-6942, ter knowing more about why you would filter wine but not how to actually do it. I also think there can be a very romantic misconception about winemaking, [as] winemaking, particularly at the entry level, is hard, dirty work. You’re hot, tired, sweaty and sticky all the time. You have to love it.” Thirty-five years later, Meyers’ love of winemaking has deepened with age. What’s the draw? “Harvest,” he says. “There’s nothing like harvest. It’s a ton of work and it’s long, hard and pressure-packed, but I love it. There’s something cathartic about it. You shed your skin and start anew each year. Every harvest holds that promise to every winemaker to be the very best one ever... it’s the very essence of winemaking.”

arco Cappelli has been a winemaker since 1987, and his life story is as vibrant as the wines he produces. The son of Italian-born parents, Cappelli grew up in Monterey and Carmel. After some casual college mead-making led to an introductory wine class at UC Davis, he caught the winemaking Marco Cappelli bug the following year and worked a harvest at Miraflores Winer Napa’s Louis Martini Winery. Recalls Cappelli, y 2120 Four Springs Trail, Placerville, “The experience convinced me that making wine 530-647-8505, mi rafloreswinery.co would be my life’s work.” m After obtaining a degree in fermentation science at UC Davis, he spent 20 months in Italy at Chianti Classico and France at Sauternes, before returning to California where he came under the mentorship of the “dean of American winemakers,” the renowned André Tchelistcheff. “André was my mentor and not only guided me through those formative early years but also shaped my overall view of wine and the industry—something I’m still grateful for many years later,” he says. One of Cappelli’s earliest realizations became one of the most long-lasting. Says Cappelli, “It took me many years to understand how modest the winemaker’s role really is in making fine wine. The most important part of the process is ensuring that the vineyards are well-maintained and the fruit is picked at the right maturity. All we really do in the winery is preserve the fruit in the form of wine—the basic quality and character of the wine is already established before the grapes arrive at the winery. I am reminded of this every vintage.” Cappelli has been with Miraflores since 2014, after 17 years at Napa Valley’s Swanson Vineyards, and his wealth of experience has not lessened the humility with which he approaches winemaking. “There’s nothing especially different or innovative about the way I make wine; in fact, I probably use fewer ‘tricks of the trade’ than most winemakers. Miraflores has a remarkable location and a unique terroir; we try to put less of ourselves in the wine and make more of an effort to showcase the natural character of the fruit.”

or Joe Shebl, the journey to director of winemaking and general manager at Renwood Winery was less a straight line and more like a full circle. Explains Shebl, “In 1999, I saw an ad for a cellar worker position at Renwood. I sent my resume in and showed up in a suit and tie for the interview. The winemaker at the time basically hired me on the spot. It was a lot of hard work and commitment, but I instantly fell in love with the job. I have held every position at Renwood—from entrylevel cellar rat to working in the lab—and finally made it to assistant winemaker in 2002. Then in 2009, I left to pursue other projects. I returned in 2013 as director of winemaking and general manager.” l eb And Shebl couldn’t be h S Joe y er in W d oo happier. “I love the fact nw Re , Plymouth, 12225 Steiner Road that my first job out of nwood.com 209-245-6979, re school started here and my journey has brought me back.” Love for Renwood and his winemaking team, and the winemaking process, were all part and parcel of why Shebl couldn’t stay away. Says Shebl, “My job here is amazing in so many ways. Making and sharing wines that bring people enjoyment is by far at the top. I love being outside in the vineyards and working with the land to create wines that people fall in love with. Most importantly, however, are all the amazing people I meet and work with...We have a killer team.” And that team is the key to Renwood’s success. “Without my team, we cannot bring the wine to life. We have a group of guys and girls who truly care and are committed to what we’re trying to do with our wines.” If they care as much as their team leader, then there’s no end to the success that Renwood can continue to achieve.

s a country girl growing up in Grass Valley, Dawn Martella always wanted to be a winemaker. Fate intervened in the most unlikely of places: While taking a college welding class. Martella recalls, “The instructor gave me a bottle of wine from his vineyard. Since I already had a crush on him, at that point the sky opened and a beam of light illuminated him. I think there were angels singing in the background, too.” The instructor became Dawn Martella her husband; as a Karmère Vineya viticulture and plant rds and Winery 11970 Shenandoah Road, Plymouth, science teacher he 209-245-5000, karmere.com helped spark her journey. After working on small productions, she initially turned down Karmère owner Marilyn Hoopes’ offer to become winemaker because of the sheer size, but a pep talk from her husband convinced her to reconsider. “And I’m glad I did,” says Martella. “I just love being here and doing what I do.” Martella is now approaching her 11th harvest at Karmère, and is deeply passionate about all aspects of winemaking. Every winemaker does things a little differently; Martella says she likes to focus on varietal character. “I want to taste those elements that make Barbera, Grenache, Zinfandel, etc., taste the way they are. When I walk through the vineyard, I taste the whole cluster, because it tells me what the wine wants to be.” Of all the aspects of winemaking, walking the vineyard prior to harvest is her favorite. Says Martella, “There’s a welcoming peace to the vineyard that draws me, and I’m always at my happiest touching the vines and watching their progress. Someone once quoted ‘how can one be an atheist in the vineyard, when you find yourself in the presence of the Divine?’”

f you ask Zack Frasher what makes him stand out as a brewmaster, he’s quick to answer. “Developing and making NE-style IPAs [that are] popular in Northern California.” Moonraker’s cloudy IPAs have been making big amber-colored waves since their 2016 opening, but Frasher’s still humble about his role in all of it, even down to the title. “I usually don’t like the term ‘master.’ At age 33, I don’t really consider myself a master of anything!” Frasher started homebrewing in 2008 and worked at The Brewmeister before joining up with Moonraker. Since the brewery’s opening last year, there’s plenty of mounting evidence of Frasher’s mastery: Earlier this year, Moonraker’s Extremis IPA beat out er h as Russian River Brewing’s legendary Pliny Fr k Zac ing Company ew Br er ak nr the Younger in a blind-tasting at The Bistro oo , M 100, Auburn

CELEBRATE SUMMER WITH THESE GREAT DEALS
escape Arriving at nightfall, the illuminated “V” on the hotel’s exterior is your official welcome to V Palm Springs, the city’s recently remodeled boutique inn that’s sandwiched between the San Jacinto Mountains and less than a mile to downtown. Whether driving or flying, you’ll find comfort in knowing that your crash pad has cozy beds, a private balcony replete with a dream catcher swing, and easy-on-the-eyes desertinspired décor. A V-shaped pool provides plenty of revelry and relaxation—where you can live like a local while sipping on a classic tiki cocktail from the on-site Elixir Pool Bar and Grill—while front door access to the Palm Springs BUZZ (a free trolley service that takes riders around town till 1 a.m., Thursday through Sunday) makes it easy peasy to explore your surrounds.
Stay
Experience the stunning scenery with a visit to Indian Canyons. A mere 10 minutes from your hotel, the palm-filled oasis is truly a breath of fresh desert air and delights with hiking, waterfalls, gushing streams and indigenous flora and fauna. Arrive early to beat the heat (and crowds) and be prepared to pay an entrance fee. For an easy-to-navigate, well-marked and maintained, kid-friendly hike, the one-and-a-half-mile Andreas Canyon Trail is your best bet. The loop takes passersby through a creek and provides spectacular views of the awe-inspiring oasis that you have to see to believe.
Spa Seekers Relaxation and Palm Springs seem to be synonymous, and your skin will thank you after treating it to a hydrating Milk and Honey Wrap at Azure Spa. Located at the luxuriously retro Riviera Palm Springs, the 11,000-square-foot space is equipped with a Watsu pool, steam room and expansive Jacuzzi that’ll have you on desert time in no time.
Jaw-Dropping Views Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, the world’s largest rotating tram, is equal parts unnerving as it is unforgettable—and sited just outside of Palm Springs proper. You’d be remiss to not throw your fear of heights aside and jump on board. As you soar and sway two-andone-half miles over hair-raising cliffs, you’ll be reminded just how powerful Mother Nature really is. Following the 10-minute ride, you’ll reach Mountain Station, located at 8,516 feet in Mount San Jacinto State Park, where you can enjoy over 50 miles of hiking trails, a restaurant, observation decks and more. Word to the wise: Bundle up—when you’re that high up, the temps are not!
A Heart for the Arts Creativity runs as rampant as the cacti around these parts, so for those with a heart for the arts, Palm Springs is a prime place to be. Mirage, an aptly named installation (on display through October 31) that sits high on the desert hills, is a ranch-style house made entirely of mirrors. Crafted by artist Doug Aitken, the literal fun house is particularly stunning at sunrise or sunset, when you can catch the sky’s sherbet-hued shades and surrounding environment reflecting off the architectural delight.
Hungry Hippos The Palm Springs restaurant scene is full of places to be seen, prime patios and enough Happy Hours to keep you smiling all weekend long. For breakfast and brunch-goers, there are plenty of cool-kid spots to sip mimosas (Cheeky’s and Workshop Kitchen + Bar, to name a few), but for a taste of local flair, head to under-the-radar Elmer’s Restaurant. The coffee is strong and bottomless, and the as-big-as-your-face German pancake is worth every sinful calorie. What’s more, the laid-back vibe means you can roll right out of bed and into the eatery (Trust me: Elmer won’t judge). When it comes to dinner, the posh without being pretentious EIGHT4NINE is worth the splurge. Sited in a 1950s building amid the fashionable Uptown Design District, the dazzling décor (think bright white accented by punches of electric pink) is tame in comparison to artfully presented plates that run the gamut from a Dungeness crab and sweet corn-bacon

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO Get the lowdown on even more places to eat, drink and stay cool at by following @visitpalmsprings on Instagram.
The prime time to visit is between January and April when daytime temps reach the 70s and 80s, but summer and fall are ideal for posting up poolside, exploring museums and other indoor attractions, or treating yourself to a spa day (or days!); plus, as the heat rises, room rates often fall. Drive time from Sacramento is approximately seven hours; for those who’d rather fly, check for deals into the array of So Cal airports then rent a car, or fly directly into Palm Springs (just be prepared for a layover). Did you know? Greater Palm Springs has more pools per capita, than anywhere else in the U.S., so there’s no reason not to make a splash! What’s more, they have the largest concentration of midcentury modern residential architecture in the world. chowder to mesquite-smoked carne asada. For something slightly more romantic that’ll transport you to the hills of Austria, a meal at awardwinning Johannes should soar to the top of your “must-eat-here” list. ChefOwner Johannes Bacher’s schnitzel puts every other version to shame; mixed with the stellar service and impressive wine list and you’ll have a new favorite restaurant.

Hop Sing Palace
Chinese Food That Reigns Supreme by LORN RANDALL
(Left) Hop Sing Appetizer Plate (Below) Fried Fish (Bottom) Singapore Noodles (Right) Cashew Chicken
F
or those who allow their imagination to occasionally drift while strolling down the boardwalk on Historic Folsom’s Sutter Street —past the candy shops, saloons and
myriad of merchants—the most enticing spot is the aptly named Hop Sing Palace. Opened six decades ago (this year marks their 60th anniversary), the Lam family purchased the business in 1986 from the original owner. The restaurant remains almost unchanged from the 1957 edition, except now Lana and Bill Lam are your hosts for some of the best “Chinese and American food” in the area. I thought I was ordering for two when I requested an appetizer and a couple of entrées. As I queried Lana for another option, she responded with a wry smile: “You got plenty of food buddy!” I should have listened. What followed was a massive bounty of Chinese-American favorites, starting with the Hop Sing Appetizer Plate—a hearty hodgepodge of St. Louis cut Chinese-style BBQ ribs, deep-fried prawns, eggrolls, paper-wrapped chicken and fried wontons. It wasn’t a large portion; it was a mountain of exquisitely prepared delicacies from my youth. I also wanted to order something not on the regular

HOP SING’S RECIPE WAS FAR AND AWAY THE BEST I’VE EVER HAD, THANKS TO A SURPLUS OF BUTTERY CASHEWS, LIGHTLY FRIED, TENDER CHICKEN AND A MOUTHWATERING, SLIGHTLY SWEET OYSTER SAUCE BASED “GRAVY”

“American” menu, and Lana recommended the fried fish (ask your server for recommendations). The large pieces of white fish—lightly battered and tossed in an addicting sauce—was a perfect pairing of crispy, moist seafood and salty, savory sauce… again designed to feed a table of hungry diners. Staying within the realm of American-Chinese, I opted for cashew chicken, whose origin is credited to Chef David Leong of the Grove (a supper club in Springfield, Missouri) circa 1963. Hop Sing’s recipe was far and away the best I’ve ever had, thanks to a surplus of buttery cashews, lightly fried, tender chicken and a mouthwatering, slightly sweet oyster sauce-based “gravy.” I’m
actually craving the leftovers as I write this… Last but not least came a Cantonese curry dish and one of my favorites anywhere: Singapore noodles. The version here featured a huge helping of stir-fried vermicelli noodles studded with a plethora of pleasing proteins and seasoned with yellow curry. Soon my table was filled with large white take-out boxes— brimming with contents that I gladly savored later. Stroll into Hop Sing and let your imagination wander.

Flightz // In the mood for some yummy artisan food with a side of vino, I recently flew into El Dorado Hills’ newest and aptly named wine pub,
Flightz. Serving local wines (including flights from Crystal Basin Cellars, Holly’s Hill Vineyards, C.G. Di Arie Vineyard and Winery, and Jodar Vineyards) and a handful of local beers, in addition to an impressive-looking cheese board and other “Food Flightz,” it’s a perfect place to gather with gal pals or wine and dine with your special someone. On my last visit, I was looking for something substantial and savory, and the Flightz Fish and Chips immediately
caught my eye. Featuring tempura-battered salmon, as opposed to the customary white fish—with your choice of two or three pieces—and served with a side of coleslaw drizzled in pancetta-vinaigrette along with thinly cut waffle fries, it was a creative (and tasty) version of this comfort food favorite. The salmon had a crunchy exterior with a moist interior, and melted in my mouth with every bite. To pack in even more flavor, I rounded off the dish with the eatery’s lime juice-spiked jalapeño-tartar sauce. Coupled with the warm and welcoming environment, I left knowing this wouldn’t be my last time landing here. Flightz, 3907 Park Drive, Suite 110, El Dorado Hills. 916-805-5128, flightzwinepub.com

THE HOT LIST
6 Favorite Seafood-Inspired Dishes compiled by STYLE STAFFERS // photos by DANTE FONTANA
Raise your hand if you’re hooked on seafood. Whether consumed raw where the fish’s flavor can truly shine, or deep-fried to give it a craveable crunch, our region has plenty of eateries that put their best fish forward. In no particular order…

“Refreshing, spicy and fresh, you have to try the Peruvian-style Ceviche at La Huaca in Roseville. They have multiple varieties to pick from, but I recommend the mixto: fish, shrimp, octopus and calamari cured in just-squeezed lime juice with red onions and hot peppers. Tip: On Mondays (“Ceviche Day”), it’s $11.95, and the first Sunday of the month, they offer an all-you-can-eat buffet from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. (inclusive of ceviche!) for $27.95.” lahuacarestaurant.com
“All of the artistically prepared dishes at Suishin Sushi in Folsom are made using seafood of the utmost quality, but their Spicy Tuna Hand Roll is especially bomb. With 10 years of experience under their belt and one of the friendliest owners in town, it’s easy to see why they’re such a success. Swing by for Happy Hour (Monday through Saturday from 5-6 p.m.) for halfoff all regular rolls, beer and hot sake; or during lunch for their all-you-can-eat special.” suishinsushi.com
“You can’t beat Fat’s Asia Bistro for their Honey Walnut Prawns. Studded with plenty of crunchy walnuts, a dusting of sesame seeds, and an abundance of lightly fried shrimp bathing in an addicting, just-sweet-enough ‘secret sauce,’ it’s pure glutton goodness and my go-to guilty pleasure.” fatsrestaurants. com
“The Basa Tacos at Cascada in Placerville are halfway healthy—thanks to the fish being grilled—but wholly delicious. Crafted using fish that’s consistently fresh, and piled high with tasty toppings like red cabbage, onions, cilantro and avocado, alongside cilantro rice, black beans and spicy chili sauce, it’s a satisfying meal morning, noon or night.” cascadainplacerville.com
“The Seafood Tower at Scott’s Seafood Folsom is exactly like it
“The Ahi Pepperfin at Heyday Café on Placerville’s Main Street is a pictureperfect dish and way to prep your palate for a memorable meal. Hawaiian yellowfin crudo is topped with slivered jalapeño, curried fennel and black pepper miso crema with ponzu reduction and chives. It’s a mishmash of textures and screams summer with every bite.” heydaycafe.com

sounds—a seafood castle crafted with multi-tiered platters of hot and cold shellfish of all kinds (shrimp, crab, oysters and calamari). It’s worth the splurge…and the splash!” scottsseafood.net

New England-style pale ales and IPAs are taking over the West Coast, thanks to their drinkability, balanced blend of ingredients and refreshing, juicy flavor. Auburn’s beloved Moonraker Brewing Company just won a bronze medal in the “New England IPA/Vermont IPA (Hazy IPA)” category at the California State Fair for their Citra Crush. Made solely with Citra hops, which—if you couldn’t guess from the name—provide the palate with an awesome punch of citrus, including orange and grapefruit, it’s perfect for summertime and helps bring out the shrimp’s mild sweetness in this month’s recipe. Thanks to a low-alcohol content (for a pale ale and IPA) and mild bitterness, it’s indeed crushable. —Eden Tuscano, 36 Handles Restaurant & Pub

Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you?
Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you?
Dimples Pediatric Dental specializes in the dental needs of children. I’m a board-certified pediatric dental specialist, which means I’ve had additional training to better handle specific issues relating to children’s developing dentition and behavior-management techniques. The practice was named after my eldest son (you can see his cute dimples on our website). After working as a pediatric dentist for seven years in the Sacramento area, I felt it was time to take on all aspects of the business and put up my own shingle. This footprint I’ve created has been more fulfilling than I ever could’ve imagined.
I teach art classes to children in my home studio and off-site enrichment classes for charter schools. I’d been teaching, on and off, for over 17 years; in 2013, I decided to focus on it full-time.
What was the first job you ever had, and what did you learn from the experience? I worked at Baskin Robbins when I was 16—without a driver’s license. I gained independence and a clear sense of responsibility that I feel molded me as a person. Being late was not an excuse, even when my bus didn’t come on time. “Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst” has become my mantra.
Why is your staff the best in the business? They’re so incredibly patient with the kids and are relatable to them and the parents.
Where do you go when the going gets tough? My kids. My four-year-old and my two-year-old are challenging and always manage to show me it could be tougher—but they’re my proof that it will always be worth it in the end.
What’s your favorite childhood memory?
Why is your staff the best in the business? I work with one of the best art teachers in El Dorado Hills: Tara Wister. She teaches her own art classes and isn’t only talented but the most patient person I’ve ever met.
What life accomplishments are you most proud of? Watching my children grow up and have other parents, teachers or coaches compliment my husband or me on how well we raised them.
Where do you go when the going gets tough? I find a way to laugh—either with friends, my family, a book or a movie.
What’s your hidden talent? I make the best chili cheese omelet, according to my husband, teenage son and most of his friends.
What’s your biggest job perk? I love watching my students beam with pride at the end of a class, as they show their parents the art they created. It doesn’t get any better than that.
What’s your favorite place to eat out locally? Aji Japanese Bistro.
Rolling down our driveway in huge moving boxes, biking around the neighborhood all day with a break for lunch, and collecting tadpoles. I loved being outside and carefree!
What’s your favorite local business other than your own?
If you could be in any other profession, what would it be?
If you could be in any other profession, what would it be?
An event planner. It would be an adventure every day with different people and different places.
A party planner. I love hosting parties, large or small, and always have a theme and throw myself into the decorations.
Blaq Boutique.

Street Scene
A Heart to Help the Homeless
by TOM MAILEY
I gave a homeless guy two bucks recently. He was older, with gray unkempt hair, oversized clothing, a week’s worth of stubble and no teeth. He saw the Starbucks cup in my hand and said in a rough but friendly voice, “Nice morning for a cup of coffee, isn’t it?” He had no idea the odds that were against him when he first approached me. For a long time, I’ve had a policy against giving homeless people any sort of help. I’d heard that it’s more compassionate; there are shelters and services where they can go for a meal, a cup of coffee and help. Giving money discourages that. But if I’m being honest? They make me uncomfortable. I wonder about their disposition, their Catch Tom on the Pat and Tom Morning mental condition, if they’re high on drugs Show on New or blotto on alcohol. If they ask me for Country 105.1, email him at tnvmailey@ money, I’m suspicious of their intent, and gmail.com, or follow him on Twitter say sorry, no. Routinely, I avoid eye contact. @kncitom. I look right past them. But recently, I saw something I couldn’t WHAT’S COMING NEXT MONTH? look past. As I waited for a red light on Don’t miss Style’s “The Slice is Right: my way home, a disheveled one-legged 25+ Praiseworthy homeless woman was attempting to roll Pizzas.” her wheelchair up a small hill where Greenback Lane approaches the I-80

know Dimitri and was simply passing him on the street, would I help if he needed it…? I don’t like my answer. I’m not naïve. I know some homeless are there because of poor or outright stupid choices in life. Some are criminals and cannot be trusted. But I also know that many are there through circumstances beyond their control: mental illness…physical disabilities…poverty… domestic violence. The list is long and sometimes complicated, and I don’t think it’s up to me to judge which is which. Not anymore. So yeah, I gave that homeless man two dollars, and maybe he got his coffee, or maybe I was duped. I don’t care. All I know is I’m going to try harder; I’m going to find a local shelter to support, because services are still the most important thing. But if I get hit up and have a spare buck? Screw it; they can have it. And if I see someone who makes me uncomfortable? So what. I’m done looking past them. FOR MORE TOM’S TAKES, VISIT STYLEFEDH.COM.

overcrossing. She wasn’t succeeding. As I sat across the street from her, in the air-conditioned cab of my truck on a hot June day, I watched her struggle to move even just a few feet. At one point, she turned her chair around and with her one leg began pushing herself backwards up the incline, about six inches at a time. Her face was visibly red. She was sweating. My light turned green and I thought, I should pull over and help her; park my truck, get out of my comfortable cab—and my comfort zone— and help her. She wasn’t pestering me for change; she obviously needed a hand. I even slowed as I passed her to get on the entrance ramp. But in an instant, all those usual thoughts flashed in my head: What if she doesn’t want help? What if she’s crazy? Or drunk? Or filthy? I kept driving. And I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. How numb have I become to the troubles of others? How did I get so indifferent to the suffering of those I’m uncomfortable with? I talk a good game about compassion and empathy, but I flat-out failed a test that was literally right in front of me. My broadcast partner, Pat Still, has an 18-year-old son, Dimitri, who has autism. Pat’s worst nightmare has always been that somehow, someday, Dimitri falls through the cracks and ends up on the street. I would help Dimitri in an instant now, if he needed it. But if I didn’t
