My dad is a gentle giant. Standing at six feet six inches, he doesn’t go unnoticed. I remember our family of five walking into restaurants and people turning to look up at him. Some would ask his height and make comments, while others would simply stare or point without saying a peep. When my now-husband first came to my parents’ house and saw Pop’s size 15 shoes lying around, he gawked at them in disbelief and later admitted he was terrified of meeting the man who raised me. B u t , a s t h e s ay i n g goes: “Never judge a book by its cover.” Though his Only the gentle appearance may suggest are ever really otherwise, my dad has strong.” a heart of gold, and the —James Dean kindest, most sentimental soul of anyone I know. Even my partner (after the initial meet and greet) wholeheartedly agrees. He’s also hysterical, works ridiculously hard, can fix anything, is quick to strike up conversations with random people in random places, and is the neighborhood hero (true story: he once made the front page of the Auburn Journal for rescuing an elderly neighbor when her house caught fire). His character set the standard for the man I married, and are traits I hope to pass on to our offspring one day. In honor of Dad’s Day on June 18 and all the positive father figures out there— including my own old man—we compiled a wealth of local ways to honor them. Whether Dad’s a daredevil, music lover or comic book buff, there’s something on our list that’ll make him smile. Flip to page 14, and start planning something special. Tom Mailey also pays homage to the holiday by regaling us with a personal story about fatherhood— an anecdote that’s as heartwarming as it is hilarious—in this month’s Tom’s Take (page 70). You might need a tissue (or three), so don’t say I didn’t warn you. In addition to celebrating dads, we have much more in store too. “Stay Cool at the Pool” with this month’s selection of Swag (page 32), take part in your very own ice cream crawl by trying our “6 Favorite Frozen Treats” (page 60), float into relaxation by learning the “Facts About Float Therapy” and where to get tanked locally (page 24), and see what’s hot and not when it comes to homes in our feature, “25+ Real Estate Trends” (page 47). We also highlight artists, eateries and nonprofits that are making a splash on the local scene, so settle in somewhere cozy (and cool) and start flipping through. P.S. I’d love to know where you read your Style each month; whether poolside, at a local café, or in the comfort of your own home, snap a selfie with you and your copy and email it over for a chance to be featured! — Megan megan@stylemg.com

Q&A WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO YOUR YOUNGER SELF?
There will always be more ideas than time; enjoy the moment. WHAT’S YOUR BIGGEST PET PEEVE?
Hating on millennials. I love the way young people view the world and social issues, and believe their generation will change the world (for the better). ARE YOU HIGH OR LOW MAINTENANCE?
I want to say low, but if you witnessed my Starbucks orders it would suggest otherwise.
WHAT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF?

Roseville resident Karen Alvord became a mom of four when she was just 24 years old. Her sister was going through a tough time, and Alvord and her husband didn’t think twice before adopting the children to ensure they had a safe, loving place to call home. “We were very young and naive,” she says with a laugh. “It worked to our advantage.” Now the mother of seven children—both adoptive and biological—and a grandmother of eight, Alvord wouldn’t have it any other way. And although she’d always been passionate about child welfare, the experience of adopting children gave her special insight into the importance of ensuring that all children have a stable, permanent home from which to flourish. Alvord is now the CEO of Lilliput Families, a nonprofit that provides foster care, adoption and kinship services

throughout Northern California. She’s been with the organization for over 27 years—and in her current role for 11—and has seen first-hand how important early intervention can be in a child’s life. “I love hearing stories of success,” she enthuses. “It’s really cool to see kids from traumatic places turn around and thrive.” She’s also a past board member and president of the California Alliance of Child and Family Services and has won numerous awards for her work over the years. Yet for Alvord, the biggest reward comes in making her community a better place to live.“It’s about prevention,” she explains. “Experiences in childhood set the course for adulthood. If we keep kids safe [while they’re young], when they leave their teenage years, they have a strong base from which to [flourish].” —Amber Foster

SEASON’S EATINGS: PlacerGROWN and Foothill Farmers’ Market by CAROL ARNOLD Peaches are some of the most highly anticipated fruits at our region’s farmers’ markets. For months, shoppers are combing the stalls, hoping for a chance to buy this luscious fruit. Thankfully, the wait is over! In Northern California, they're in season from May to September, so now’s the time to try the peachy-keen fruit.
What’s in Season
Peaches
SELECTION AND STORAGE // Choose peaches with a rich color that may still have a slight whitish “bloom” on their surface, which indicates freshness. Avoid fruit with excessive softness, surface cuts and bruises. A ripe peach will have a gentle give when touched and a sweet aroma. Peaches can be kept in the refrigerator, but should be brought to room temperature before eating. As with apples, sliced peaches will turn brown after cutting; lessen this by rinsing the slices in water mixed with lemon juice. White-fleshed peaches are sweeter and less acidic than their more traditional golden counterpart. DID YOU KNOW? // The peach originated in China and began to travel the world through trade routes— eventually coming to Florida in the 1600s.

"The community and all of the wonderful vendors, sponsors, volunteers and participants make this event so special and fun," says For One Another Foundation Executive Director Carrie Beth Bowin. This year’s event is on June 16, and tickets are $50, or $75 for VIP—money that goes directly toward bringing water-filtration systems and proper hygiene education to people who need it most.

ASK THE EXPERT What’s the difference between a wonton and a dumpling? All wontons are dumplings, but not all dumplings are wontons. Dumpling—a food item made of dough—is a category, and nearly every culture has a version of one. They can be filled or unfilled, and are usually steamed, baked or fried. The filling can range from something sweet to something savory. There are many different variations of dumplings featured in Chinese cuisine, one of which is the wonton or wuntun; in fact, the word “wonton” is derived from the Cantonese word “hundun,” which literally means dumpling. The typical qualities or characteristics that

the arts HLB: WHAT MAKES A PROJECT UNIQUE AND EXCITING FOR YOU? MT: I enjoy every project, because it’s another chance for me to put my name on a piece of artwork for people to enjoy. I love creating 30-foot murals as much as [I love] small canvas pieces. Some [of my] highlights include painting for celebrities such as Sheryl Crow, creating art for charity events like Let Them Eat Cake (raises money for Sacramento’s selfhelp housing projects) or A Night Under the Stars (benefits school arts programs), and producing art live at CBS Radio events.
Matt Trammel
HLB: WERE THERE ANY CHALLENGES AS YOU TRANSITIONED FROM PEN AND INK TO LARGESCALE PAINTING? MT: Having no professional training and never really working with a paintbrush until about five years ago, it took a while to master. My first largescale painting was also my first commercial mural. I painted it like I’d painted or drawn anything else— completely free hand, and I’ve done it that way ever Bull Wings Bar and Grill

ocklin resident Matt Trammel, a self-taught artist who creates
large murals and canvases commercially, residentially and for charities, loves producing bright, vibrant art that makes people feel happy and inspired. Along with his encouraging family, a major influence for Trammel—both while growing up and today—is Walt Disney. “I’ve always loved his art and his unique story,” Trammel shares. “I’m currently creating pieces to send to become a fine artist for Disney—a personal dream of mine!” In the meantime, the artist doesn’t put a cap on the mediums he’s willing to explore and is busy working on 14 murals for a new winery in Elk Grove.

since. I had to develop techniques to paint faster so I could meet deadlines, including learning how to paint with both hands; I [realized] if I could use both hands, I could hold two brushes at the same time and get more work done! This transitioned into my “speed painting” or “performance painting,” which I do when creating art live at events. HLB: WHAT EXACTLY IS SPEED OR PERFORMANCE PAINTING? MT: Creating large canvas pieces in front of an audience. I create these pieces in minutes, using both hands to paint. It’s a form of pop art and is very splashy, vibrant and exciting. I enjoy people’s reactions to a completed piece of live art and believe creating in front of people adds value to those involved in the experience. HLB: WHAT INSPIRES YOU? MT: When being commissioned for a piece, my inspiration is simply drawn from the client’s ideas. I love drawing off a person’s excitement for a vision they want brought to life. When creating pieces from my own ideas, my inspiration changes from piece to piece, but always focuses on color and light and how the warmth and brightness will make people feel.

health & wellness popularity is, in part, due to word of mouth. “It’s something that used to be underground and now is becoming mainstream,” he says. “With social media and the ability to find information on the Internet, floating has become accessible to more people.”
Facts About Float Therapy by KOURTNEY JASON
Heather McNeilly challenged herself to float for one hour a day, 30 days in a row. “I’ve found myself in a place of calm that I’ve never felt before,” she says. “Even when things have come up that normally [trigger my] anxiety, I’ve been able to stay in a grounded place of contentment and deal in a way that’s surprised me.” McNeilly, co-owner of Revival Float and Wellness in Grass Valley, has been consulting with her doctor on the health benefits of her 30-day challenge. “I’ve watched my blood pressure go down,” she says. “I had bloodwork done before I began, and am having bloodwork currently done to see some of the other benefits, such as magnesium absorption, which so many of us are deficient in.” WHAT IS IT? Flotation therapy, also known as sensory deprivation, is floating in 10 inches of water with 1,000-1,200 pounds of dissolved Epsom salt in an area that’s both soundproof and lightproof. “The water is set to your skin's temperature, roughly 93.5 degrees, so you lose sense of where your body ends and the water begins,” says Leilani Wagner, director of community engagement at Capitol Floats in Sacramento. “The tank has the capability to have no light and no sound; in turn, your body is deprived of stimuli, allowing your central nervous system to rest and put you into a theta state of mind.” Gary McFadyen, who handles public relations for True REST Float Spa with local franchises in Folsom and Roseville, says the recent growth in floating's

positively buoyant the entire time. It would take effort to force yourself under the water, since you tend to pop up like a cork,” she assures. “And yes, people often fall asleep while floating. Since there’s no way you can drown, falling asleep is perfectly normal and expected, due to the deep relaxation you’ll experience. It’s been estimated that one hour of sleep in the isolation tank is equal to four hours of bed sleep.”

BENEFITS Even among top athletes like Steph Curry and Tom Brady, the benefits of floating are both physical and mental. “[It allows them to] relax and recover after a game,” McFadyen says, “but they can also prepare and visualize for the next game.” In addition, floating provides relief for many of today’s most common ailments and injuries. “There are a lot of studies showing that floatation therapy can be used for PTSD, depression, fibromyalgia and other chronic pain, stress relief, lowering cortisol levels, increasing creativity, improving mental clarity, insomnia and more,” Wagner says. Erica Colby, owner of SALTS in Granite Bay, recommends floating at least twice a month to reap the benefits. “Every float you have will be different, and beyond the deep relaxation you feel, floating tends to bring any mental and physical issues occurring in your life to the surface, so they can be addressed...it’s a safe, non-invasive and integrative therapy and can be used as a tool for self-development and mindful living. The positive, calming effects of even a single float can be felt for days afterward.”

Pink Boots Society The First Ladies of Beer
C
by MORGAN CÁSAREZ
raft brew is the craze on every beer lover’s lips, particularly in the Golden
State, which boasts over 700 breweries from Mount Shasta to San Diego. More than 50 different labels call the Greater Sacramento area home, and as the local scene continues to grow, so does the number of women in a once male-dominated industry. “I love getting to see more women interested in beer and brewing,” shares Kayla Brogna, a brewer at Chico’s Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. “Although I loved the short lines for the women’s restrooms at festivals and beer bars when I first entered the industry, I love having to wait in line now and directly see how much has changed so quickly.” Brogna helped affect change locally when, in May of 2016, she started the Sacramento Chapter of the Pink Boots Society (PBS), a network for women in the beer industry that provides educational opportunities and scholarships for professional advancement. Having previously been active in the San Francisco Chapter, she knew “many women who worked in the industry in Sacramento [and was confident] a local organization would benefit.” Reaching prospective members, however, was initially challenging. “I met a couple of women at the first PBS meeting I attended who were so excited to talk to me and ask about what I do, but who were nervous to begin working on the production side,” she explains. “I was able to give them some encouragement, and years later they are still brewing and loving it! Seeing how I was able to make a positive difference for someone has made the rest of organizing this chapter worth every second.” To date, there are more than 45 PBS chapters worldwide, including ones in Canada, Hong Kong, Chile, Australia and Spain, and membership is open to women in all stages of their brewing careers, including students and retirees. Locally, members include ladies from El Dorado Hills (Lauren Zehnder, taproom/sales manager of Mraz Brewing Company), Roseville (Amy Ruthnick, co-owner of Final Gravity Taproom and Bottle Shop; Jennifer Luckey, beer hall manager of Yolo Brewing Company; and Cynthia Lee, founder of Brewers Acts of Random Kindness and co-owner of Darkheart Brewing) and Auburn (Teresa Psuty, co-owner and brewer of Crooked Lane Brewing Co.). PBS Sacramento Assistant Chapter Leader Lindsey Nelson also works as the marketing

director for the Art of Beer Invitational, a celebration of craft beer, fine art and farmto-fork cuisine benefitting local nonprofits. Now entering its seventh year, the event highlights the strong sense of community within the world of brewing—a world that’s thriving thanks to women defying the notion that producing great beer has anything to do with gender. “Our initiatives help bring awareness to the various roles these women have in the industry,” she says. “They’re brewers, taproom managers, brewery owners, beer bloggers, sales reps.You name it, we have a member that does it. We’re helping change the perception that the only people who work in the beer business are flannel-wearing guys with beards.” Since PBS Sacramento was founded last year, participation has grown steadily each month, with members taking advantage of seminars, social mixers, fund-raisers and brew days, which provide hands-on production experience at local breweries in a welcoming and collaborative environment. “I think any time you have an opportunity to get women together in a professional and social capacity like we do, it’s a really powerful, incredible thing,” Nelson shares. “Each one of our members is doing amazing things, and to have the opportunity to celebrate that and bring visibility to [it] is really special.” facebook.com/pinkbootssac photo by DANTE FONTANA

5 Ways to Create a MenswearInspired Space by KERRIE L. KELLY, ASID
Whenever we begin a new project at Kerrie Kelly Design Lab, we make sure we understand the client’s story—their hobbies, where they’ve traveled and what inspires them. By delving into their backstories, we’re able to unearth design inspiration and create a space they can’t wait to call home. Our latest project installation took us on a menswear-inspired journey. Residing in Roseville, the homeowners are a well-traveled, worldly couple who love inspiring architecture and historic monuments. Their favorite destinations all have one thing in common: a touch of menswear. Mostly seen in fashion, menswear

l e n d s t a i l o r e d c u t s, structured details and classic silhouettes to interior design—a look our clients loved the idea of implementing into their home. To c r e a t e a c o o l , m e n s w e a r- i n s p i r e d space of your own, follow these five simple rules.
1
PICK AN ANCHORING HUE
This tip is great for any space being styled, but selecting a color to kick off the project is the simplest way to adhere to your inspiration. We selected a beautiful navy tone as our anchoring hue then weaved in accent colors and metallic details to balance the deep, dark tone.
2
ADD ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS
Menswear, in fashion and design, is inspired by structure— clean lines, simple silhouettes and sturdy composition. To give the different spaces in the home more dimension, we selected furnishings with architectural details, like a desk with strong wooden legs, a coffee table with metal accents, and drawings, maps and architectural renderings as artwork to add a vintage, masculine vibe.
3
TAKE TEXTURE UP A NOTCH
One of our favorite ways to add dimension to a design is with texture. Even if our project only calls for a monochromatic look or a few key colors, we sprinkle in textures like nubby knits, natural fibers like seagrass or jute, and soft leather and suede. With menswear, the focus is on warm yet contemporary consistencies like a tufted area rug, buttery leather sofa and hidecovered stools. The juxtaposition of cozy fabrics with a simple color palette and architectural elements creates the perfect masculine backdrop.
4
ADD BALANCE WITH FEMININE FINISHES
While the menswear look is heavily focused on masculine details, colors and textures, it can begin to look too heavy or overwhelming. To add softness, sprinkle in more feminine finishes like mirrored elements, metallic accents and cooler tones like blush. While a masculine look is still the overall goal, it should be softened and complemented by Kerrie L. Kelly is an fresh, delicate colors and finishes. interior designer
5
PERSONALIZE IT
who has created several model homes in Northern California. See her latest set by Elliott Homes in Roseville or online at kerriekelly.com.
There’s no better way to put a cherry on top of a design project than with personalized elements. This couple loves vintage motorcycles, so we selected artwork showing off the anatomy of a vintage bike, and other prints featuring drawings and sketches inspired by motorcycles to complete the home’s design. These simple additions help make the space truly feel like home.

Voted “ Favorite Real Est ate Agent” four years in a row in Style Magazine’s Readers’ Choice Awards, Connie Barnes’ philosophy has always been to “over-deliver” by providing professional photography, st aging advice and commercialquality video to attract buyers from across the countr y and help clients achieve their real est ate objectives.
“The most significant trend I have noticed is the lack of available inventory. We have clients who want to sell and stay in the area but are concerned they won’t be able to find a home that they like.” “Single-level homes are in demand by homebuyers seeking to downsize, and well-appointed, one-story homes sell quickly. The last three we had listed in El Dorado Hills sold in less than a week. In this region, single-level homes typically stay on the market, on average, for about 33 days, compared to 62 days it takes to sell multi-level homes.” “Homes that are turn-key and move-in ready are preferred by busy professionals, since they don’t have time to paint, replace carpet etc. and are usually willing to pay to get the right house with the amenities they demand. Also, wood floors are in; carpet is out.” “Aerial drone photography has literally taken off in real estate photography. The technology continues to advance, making it easy to capture stunning images or HD video of a property from the sky. The FAA has relaxed restrictions on commercial drone operators, but they do require pilots to pass an unmanned aircraft operators test.” “The emergence of virtual reality (VR) technology, such as headsets, will likely affect real estate marketing in the future. Facebook has bet big on it—buying start-up Oculus, the maker of the Oculus Rift headset, for $2 billion. VR gives the user the feeling of being in the location; it’s only natural that someday homebuyers could visit a real estate broker’s office and tour a dozen homes using a VR headset.”

As a project manager for a successful land use planning and development consulting firm, Ricky O ’ Neal has been heavily involved in numerous housing development projects all throughout El Dorado, S acramento and Placer Counties with exper tise along the Highway 5 0 Corridor. Additionally, he’s been a small business owner since 1 9 9 6 , allowing his diverse and vast personal ne twork to expand—an experience that enables him to fulfill real est ate needs with ease.
“Buyers should know what their purchasing power is and how interest can affect this. On average, every one percent the interest rate increases, a buyer’s purchasing power drops 10 percent. Interest rates are on the rise and expected to go up this summer. If you’re on the fence and see a home that fits your criteria, it wouldn’t hurt to get a pre-approval and get the process going or at least start to explore your options.” “Understanding purchasing power also has a direct correlation with sellers. Inventory is still low in many areas. The value of your home today could be drastically different if the interest rates change and purchasing power drops 10 percent for buyers. Even though many homes may still be going up in value, the pool of buyers could shrink significantly, keeping homes on the market for longer.”

As a resident of Placer County and the surrounding region for over 15 years, Jessica Horton has become an area expert who’s passionate about her business and loves providing quality customer service. From buying to selling, and everything in between, she’s dedicated to providing clients with peace of mind and a seamless move into their dream home or investment property.
“There are fewer homes on the market, which means it’s a great time to sell. Homes are selling quickly because the ‘for sale’ inventory is very low.” “Interest rates are going up. Rates have risen and will continue to rise, but they are still very low. Check with your preferred lender for the current rates, as they are always changing. You can lock your rate in now and start looking.” “Multi-generational homes are in demand. Many buyers want their parents or family members to live with them so are looking for homes with guest houses or in-law quarters.” “I see many families unloading their two-story homes for smaller, single-story ones. To fill the demand, homebuilders are producing more single-story homes.”
There probably aren’t too many activities more confusing than purchasing property. The combination of most purchase contracts, addendums, disclosures, lending paperwork, inspections, title and escrow documents would make a book the size of Gone with the Wind look like a pamphlet in comparison. Enter professional real estate agents, brokers and associate brokers. These experts keep up on the sales and prices for each neighborhood where they work. Many times, the latest information on homes that have sold and closed is not available to the public right away, and the “sold” price is the price you want to see before putting your home on the market or making an offer on a home. With so many variations for each purchase contract, it simply makes sense to talk with a real estate professional. • Price offered/price accepted • Amount of deposit/earnest money • Which inspections does the buyer need to pay for? • Which inspections does the seller need to pay for? • Who pays for the repair work? • Who pays the agent/broker/associate broker? • What are the time periods for the inspections? • When do financing arrangements need to begin? • How do “contingencies” slow down the sale? • How is the itemization of fees associated with the sale determined? • What is an “arbitration clause for dispute resolution” and/or liquidated damages clause? • What happens if an offer is “countered” or if you should “counter” an offer? • When does the offer become legally binding? • How can a real estate agent, associate broker or broker protect you when purchasing a home in a new home subdivision? • What is the difference in purchasing a lot to build a custom home and purchasing a semi-custom home that is already complete? • Are there different considerations when purchasing residential income property? • How and when do I set up my 1031 exchange on my income property that I have on the market?

“Real estate investors will see opportunities in foreclosures and short sales. There are still over 2,500 homes in the area that fall into that category.” “Investing in Downtown Sacramento is an excellent choice if you’re a business owner looking for retail space. The Golden 1 Center has raised its ‘golden wand’ all over the area, and its presence has forged a new beginning for the once-flailing downtown economy. If you’re fortunate enough to have the capital now, it’s a great place to see real estate values soar in the coming months—not years. Overall, Sacramento remains one of the hottest markets nationwide.” “In the U.S., we remain attractive for foreign investors. This is especially true when it comes to real estate investing. The most prevalent countries inflowing their investment dollars are China, Canada, Norway and Singapore. In 2015, foreign purchases of U.S. real estate toppled at $87 billion, according to the Association of Foreign Investment in Real Estate (AFIRE). Changing policies, such as the Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act (FIRPTA)—which allows foreign investors to be treated similarly to their U.S. counterparts— will help fuel foreign real estate investment as well. Why are these statistics important? Many people, not just real estate investors, are somewhat concerned about the impact of foreign investors, and residential, commercial and construction will all be affected by the FIRPTA political overtures.” “In a three-year average, appreciation in the Sacramento region boomed at 36.6 percent, compared to 17.8 percent for the rest of the country. Due to unemployment rates remaining low and housing affordability remaining high, new housing construction is on the rise. Construction on single-family residences has ballooned to 25.3 percent, compared to the national average of 10.6 percent.” CalBRE# 01707451 and NMLS# 1545633

Throughout Amber Jaurequi’s 20-plus years in the mortgage industry, she’s helped thousands of homeowners purchase their dream houses and existing homeowners structure beneficial refinances. Building lasting relationships with clients is of utmost importance to her.
“I’m seeing more people seeking a slower-paced lifestyle and a more oldfashioned way of raising kids, thus wanting to ‘move to the country.’ This is happening so much that the market for country homes is flying off the multiple listing service (MLS) like hot cakes. With more and more employers offering telecommuting positions, this lifestyle has become much more feasible.” “More mortgage companies and real estate professionals are offering support to homebuying veterans, thanks to an increasing number getting educated to specialize in helping them. El Dorado County has one of the highest VA populations in California, and with all this added knowledge and benefit, they’re finally getting the help they deserve—a trend that makes me very proud and excited to be a part of.”

As president of the Placer County Association of Realtors ( P C A R ) and with ex tensive involvement in other professional or ganiz ations, Debbie New ton has abundant knowledge of the local marke t and real estate pro cess. She’s dedicated to ser ving est ablished residents and first-time homebuyers in any way she can.
“Millenials are purchasing homes later than any other generation before them. A number of factors have contributed to this shift in the homeownership paradigm including: • Millenials are not getting married or having children as young as former generations. • This generation has the highest rate of student loan debt. • The desire to be mobile and save their disposable income for consumer goods and travel can all outweigh the benefits of homeownership to this age group.” “Sellers are motivated to sell their properties because of lack of inventory. The sheer demand for properties has consistently outgrown the rate of growth for available properties in the region. Buyers, and in many instances, first-time buyers, are turning to new home developments in an effort to find available inventory within their budget.” “We are seeing an increase in movement from the Bay Area to our region. While some are coming here because of job opportunities in our strengthening tech and education industries, others are moving here simply to improve the quality of life for their families, and are continuing to commute back to the Bay Area for work.” “Current statistics show that home sales are strong, even though the number of homes available for sale has reduced. The median price in March of 2017 had increased by $35,000 over March of 2016. The average number of days on the market has remained almost identical to last year at an average of 45 days. The number of pending sales has increased over the same period last year. In other words, it’s a sellers’ market. The number of homes being sold is very strong, prices are up, properties are selling and closing escrow quickly, and buyers are facing a lot of competition in the marketplace. It’s clearly a great time to sell and move up and an exciting time to buy.”

2 5 + R E A L E S TAT E T R E N D S MOVING CHECKLIST
your old or new residence? Make these arrangements now. • Do you need to have a garage sale? • If you’re moving yourself, figure out how many boxes you’ll need. Many of the moving companies have websites with calculators that can help you determine that number. Many truck rental companies have boxes for sale.
8 WEEKS BEFORE YOU MOVE • If you’re using a professional mover, get estimates in writing from moving companies. Discuss costs, packing, loading, delivery and the claims procedure with your mover. • If you’re moving yourself, get estimates from truck rental companies. • Be sure you reserve in advance. • Draw a floor plan of your new home and make notes of where you want your furniture placed. • Use up food in your freezer. • Remember you can’t move flammable household cleaning products, etc.
3 WEEKS BEFORE YOU MOVE • Gather packing materials, including: furniture pads, newspapers, hand truck/ dolly, scissors, utility knife, packing tape, bubble wrap, felt tip markers, and, of course, boxes. • Begin packing things that you don’t need every day. • Call the utilities in your new community to arrange a start date and the utility companies in your present location to arrange a stop date. • Do you need to make travel/hotel reservations?
Even before you put your home on the market, put a plan in place. Everyone likes to move on the weekend or a holiday, so make sure you have a moving company or rental truck lined up to move you out of your present home.
6 WEEKS BEFORE YOU MOVE • Inventory all your possessions now. Determine what can be donated for a tax deduction, sold or given to a family member. • Gather important records such as medical, lawyers, accountants, insurance, car/boat, camper registration, veterinarians, etc. to hand carry to your new home. • Transfer your children’s school records. • Make sure you understand the taxdeductible moving expenses (call your accountant), and set up record keeping for these expenses.
1 WEEK BEFORE YOU MOVE • Defrost your refrigerator and freezer. • Arrange for cash, a certified check, or money order to pay the mover on delivery day. • Pack valuables and legal documents to go with you, not on the truck.
MOVING DAY • Pack your pillows, bedding, etc. in the top dresser drawer so you know where the linens are and you don’t have to look through boxes. • Make a list of every item loaded. • Before you sign, read the bill of lading. Keep it in a safe place until you receive all your goods. You will need the bill of lading until after the charges are paid and any claims settled. • Make sure to turn off all utilities. • Make arrangements with your agent to leave the keys and garage door opener(s) inside the house. • Lock all doors and windows. DELIVERY DAY • Vigilance is important at this point— check off all boxes and items as they come off the truck; examine everything. • Install new locks. • Make sure utilities are hooked up. • Put out “comfort toys” for the children and pets. Congratulations, your new life is just beginning! REPRINTED WITH PERMISSION FROM THE PLACER COUNTY ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS’ (PCAR) WEBSITE, PCAOR.COM.

Chicken Tikka Masala nterpreet Dhillon never pictured herself owning a restaurant, yet nearly a year into business, her Indian-Pakistani eatery in Roseville has made her
a true believer. Dhillon’s business partner (a “finance guy” by trade) brought an amazing array of recipes—each one time-tested at family gatherings and backyard shindigs—and Tandoori Bite was born.

I decided to stick with the most popular dishes on my recent visit, just to see how the “finance guy’s” food stacked up, and started with the Lahori fish pakora— squares of moist, flaky, lightly fried white fish that were delightfully spicy and salty. Presented with sweet turmeric and piquant mint dipping sauces, it’s a great appetizer to have alongside a beer while watching an inning or two of cricket. N e x t we r e t wo o f I n d i a ’s m o s t recognizable dishes: butter chicken and chicken tikka masala. I ordered everything with “medium heat,” and was pleased with the outcome, as each bite was on the fine edge of flavor and fire. The butter chicken was creamy, wellbalanced and not too tomato heavy, and begged for some savory naan. Tearing off

The Fig Tree // The Fig Tree calls itself a coffee, art and music lounge. They should also add “dreamy escape,” “relaxing retreat” and “alter-
native retirement option” to the list, because if I could, I’d spend the rest of my life dreaming, relaxing and retiring here. Upon entering the café, I was treated to an incomplete jigsaw puzzle on the right, and board games beckoning to me on the left. The display shelves housed fresh foods from Randy Peters Catering and some tasty goodies from Mama T’s. I got the Bowl of Soul that, true to its name, was a cup of soul-soothing goodness. The descrip-
tion reads: “chamomile tea seeped in milk with honey on the bottom.” That’s local honey we’re talking about, and tea from a vendor who knows their stuff. I also got the Five Star Brownie (yep, it’s worth five stars), and sat in one of the many eclectic chairs and couches that make small nooks around the space for perusing art on the walls, watching musicians on stage, or just enjoying the essence of what can only be described as an urban oasis masquerading as a coffee lounge. The folks who run the place are dedicated to their craft too, and are careful with what they use in their offerings. For instance, they didn’t like how a store-bought lavender syrup tasted, so they made their own—from lavender plants in their garden. If that’s not attention to detail, I don’t know what is. Seriously though, when can I move in? The Fig Tree, 222 Vernon Street, Roseville. 916-771-7010, figtreecoffee.com. photo by DANTE FONTANA JUNE 2017 // stylergbr.com

6 Favorite Frozen Treats compiled by STYLE STAFFERS // photos by DANTE FONTANA
What’s “the scoop” on the coolest places around town for ice cream? Read on for Style staffers’ favorite frozen treats that will have you chilled out all summer long.
“RITA’S ITALIAN ICE (locations in Roseville and Rocklin) offers a variety of frozen treats—from upgraded snow cones made with real fruit (aka, Italian ice) to old-fashioned, ultra-rich frozen custard and ‘cream ice.’ The chocolatevanilla swirl custard is my go-to and the perfect treat on a warm day.” ritasice.com
“The create-your-own fro yo at NUYO FROZEN YOGURT (locations in Folsom, Roseville and Lincoln) is tons of fun and always tasty. They have a huge selection of classic and innovative flavors—from vanilla sorbet and peanut butter to cherry limeade and sriracha mango—as well as fresh toppings. Plus, they play throwback music videos from the early 2000s…gotta love NSYNC!” nuyofrozenyogurt.com
“Halo-halo—the Tagalog word for mixmix—is a traditional Filipino dessert that’s typically made with a combo of refreshing shaved ice and evaporated milk alongside ingredients like coconut and sweet beans. The offering at LOLLICUP is crafted using non-dairy creamer, plus boba, jelly and taro shake; talk about a colorful creation that’s a perfect rivalry between texture and taste.” 916-787-5335
“For a taste of Italy in El Dorado Hills, don’t miss trying ZIA’S ITALIAN CAFFE AND GELATO BAR. Not only is their gelato homemade and offered in a lengthy list of flavors that regularly rotate, but it’s made using time-honored, artisanal techniques. Enjoy it at their café for a true silver spoon (and dish) experience.” ziasgelato.com
“Who needs a cone when you can have your ice cream in a thin, lightly sweetened and perfectly crisp crepe? The Premium Sweet Crepe at Folsom’s T-CREPES is filled with your choice of three toppings (you can’t go wrong with strawberries, blueberries and whipped cream) and a scoop of ice cream (chocolate all the way). Summer has never tasted sweeter!” t-crepes.com

“THE NICHE ICE CREAM in Folsom makes ponchik, which combines two of my favorite things (ice cream and donuts) and is pure perfection! Although they allow you to make your own and add endless toppings for only $1, my indecisive palate prefers picking one of their on-the-menu offerings, such as Better Than BFast— banana ice cream in a glazed donut with Cinnamon Toast Crunch or Fruity Pebbles. Trust me, it really is better than breakfast!” 916-398-9800

Claimstake Brewing in Rancho Cordova is a newer kid on the brewery block (they celebrated their oneyear anniversary in March) that’s making a big splash on the Sacramento beer scene. Though mostly known for their IPAs, the 10-barrell, small-batch brewhouse features an impressive array of other, constantly rotating styles as well—from a sour mash ale (Manus to Society) made with cherry and plum, to a chocolate oatmeal stout (Mikey Likes It). The refreshing, easy-to-drink Scotty’s Blonde Ale features notes of fruit and honey with a clean, slightly bitter finish, and is an ideal summertime sipper. Its lower alcohol content and fruity aroma make it a perfect pairing for this month’s Fig and Watermelon Salad. —Eden Tuscano, 36 Handles Restaurant & Pub

Describe your business.
Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you?
We offer compassionate cremation services for family pets 300 pounds or less, with free pick-up service at your home or your vet’s office.
Vibe is a locally owned boutique for women that sells current clothing trends, jewelry and accessories at affordable prices.
What was the first job you ever had, and what did you learn from the experience?
How are you involved with both the community and your customer?
I was a paperboy with two different companies. Being busy kept me out of trouble, and I learned that having my own money gave me a lot of freedom.
We have done various fund-raisers for local schools, sports programs and student projects. We’re continuously thinking of creative ways to co-market with other local businesses in the area.
How are you involved with both the community and your customer?
Why is your staff the best in the business?
I work with a local K9 organization that trains dogs for veterans returning home with war-related problems. I’m also organizing a nonprofit called “Robin Hoods” and am planning a Soap Box Derby in Lincoln on September 23-24 for boys and girls ages 8-17.
Why is your staff the best in the business? The general manager and I love animals, and our mission is to provide excellent customer service and satisfaction. We recognize that losing a pet is a very emotional time in a family’s life.
What life accomplishments are you most proud of?
We provide a personal and professional shopping experience that keeps our customers coming back on a regular basis.
What life accomplishments are you most proud of? Being married to my beautiful wife for 20 years and being blessed with two amazing boys. On a professional level, I am most proud of creating a local shop that the community can be proud of and use for generations to come.
Where do you go when the going gets tough? Family and faith.
My three children—all successfully married, working and contributing to society—and seven grandchildren (with another one on the way), who are all either in school or working.
What’s your hidden talent?
Where do you go when the going gets tough? Church—to sit for a period of time and meditate.
The day-to-day interaction with friends, family and neighbors in the community.
What’s your biggest job perk?
What’s your favorite local business other than your own?
Having enough money to do things, and helping other people that don’t have the resources to do it.
House of Oliver.
If you could meet someone living or dead, who would it be and why?
Knowing your product or service to the best of your ability and how to cater to customers in the most professional way possible.
Film production.
What’s your biggest job perk?
And finally, customer service is…?
Ronald Reagan. He was my hero and a great family man.

tom’s take
Grown and Flown by TOM MAILEY
I was there when Sammy was born and the doctor, with four quick and wordless motions, unwrapped the umbilical cord from around his neck. His skin was ashen. He was quiet. Before we could touch him, a nurse whisked him out of the delivery room and it was a long 20 minutes until he was brought back, his skin finally a beautiful pink. The nurse was smiling as she placed him in my arms, wrapped tight in a blanket like a little burrito. I beamed with relief and pride, but also because I couldn’t help it; I was his dad. I was there when he first rolled over, first laughed, first spoke, and took his first unsure steps. I was there to break up arguments as his brother and sister fought over who would get to “pet his head.” I was briefly not there one afternoon as he slept quietly in his crib. Nobody else was home, but I ran to the store anyway because I literally forgot we had a new child. I remembered in the soup aisle and left the cart where it was. I was there for his first day of Catch Tom on the Pat and Tom Morning preschool, when he gave me one quick, Show on New unsure glance before he released my Country 105.1, email him at tnvmailey@ hand and stepped bravely into class. gmail.com, or follow him on Twitter I was there when he learned to ride @kncitom. a bike and promptly crashed into the neighbor’s trash can. I was there when WHAT’S COMING NEXT MONTH? he tried to leap the couch but didn’t Don’t miss Style’s “People & Their quite stick the landing and snapped Pets” pictorial. his forearm. I was there the first time he skied downhill on his own, and the summer day he had his first real water-
70
ski wipeout (I asked, “Are you OK?” and through a nine-year-old’s grimace he replied, “…Define ‘OK’”). I was there the first time he reeled in a 20-pound salmon. I was there for his first trips to Disneyland, Santa Cruz, the Grand Canyon, New York City, and too many playgrounds to count. I was there, watching from where he couldn’t see me, while he sat with my mom at her breakfast table as she taught him how to watercolor. I was there the time he accidentally punched my dad in the crotch. I was there the first time he put on his Little League uniform and for another 10 seasons either in the stands or as a coach. I was there when he played well enough his freshman year to be named a team co-captain at season’s end. But I was also there two years later when he came home on the last day of varsity tryouts much too early. He never let on how much it bothered him. I never let on how much I felt I’d failed him. I was there as he zeroed in on academics, taking college-prep courses like I used to take PE. I was proud when he got his first article published in the school paper. Prouder when he was named an editor. Proudest when their paper was named third best high school paper in the country at a national competition. I argued with him when he announced he wanted to graduate early. What’s the hurry? I asked. He replied that he was ready to get on with the rest of his life. And so, he’ll soon start at Washington State University where he’ll study journalism—a profession he believes (as do I) is vitally important to a functioning democracy, despite what certain politicians might say. However, I also believe their respected journalism school had less to do with his decision than the moment when, during the campus tour, a pretty student told him, “Oh my God, we need more guys here with hair like yours!” Yeah, I was there for that, too. Even though he was officially done with high school in December, to me it won’t be over until the moment he walks across that stage this month to receive his diploma. Then, that rest of his life he’s so eager to get on with will truly begin. And even though I will be there in person far less frequently—which I’m sure he will not mind at all—I will always be there for him. I can’t help it; I’m still his dad.
