s it just me or is time flying by at Mach speed? Seriously, folks, I don’t mean to kill the mood, but the sand in the hourglass is slipping slightly quicker these days. Even as I sit here, working on a fast-approaching deadline, time is ticking like a train, the high-speed kind, and not on my side. Then there are things that happened 10 years ago, and I look back and it feels like only a few calendars have passed. It’s frightening sometimes. Like when the mental image I had of myself started to contrast with what the mirror showed. I’m getting less concerned with how time will transform me though—I think because I have accepted what I know will happen. Some perks with the passing of time are getting to know and accept who you are, and in turn developing a better relationship with vanity. One thing many say is an effective anti-ager is reducing stress, a.k.a. enjoying life. Lucky for you, the Fountain of Youth awaits you this month in Style’s 2013 Summer Fun Guide, packed with a plethora of activities, events, festivals, fairs, camps, concerts and much more to keep your family’s itinerary for fun full. Also this month, and just in time for the holiday, get some hot tips for impressing guests at your 2013 Fourth of July celebration. Local expert and award-winning interior designer, Kerrie Kelly shares her “8 Independence Day Party Ideas” that are practical and affordable, yet chic…and will make any great get-together even better. Another hot topic warming up the month is the subject of youth sexting. In Our Kids, Jenn Thornton opens parents’ eyes in her piece, “Risky Business,” in which you’ll find a quick list of common sexting codes. Don’t let time pass you by when it comes to your kids and staying abreast of their technology usage. There are many dangers involved with virtual relationships, and youth sexting can signal this type of connection. One more thing before you get started with your summer fun, do you love your pets? Then don’t miss having them featured in Style’s annual People & their Pets pictorial spread coming in August 2013. To be featured, we need your photos now! Please email photos of you and your pet, or just your pet, along with the names of those pictured and the city where you reside to info@stylemg. com. Deadline is July 5. Until next month, keep in mind that we only have the sun for a limited amount of time—go soak it up! — Desiree

A: I believe that I’m a good communicator and mediator. Q: What’s your biggest pet peeve? A: Incivility, particularly amongst lawyers on opposing sides of a case. Q: Biggest life inspirations?

favorites In addition to volunteering for the SPCA, Mason is a happily married father of three and an attorney with a thriving civil litigation practice in Roseville. He also serves on the board of KidsFirst, an organization that advocates for the prevention of child abuse. For all of his activities, Mason hopes to serve as a role model for his children and to teach them the importance of giving back. “I want to teach [my children] to become good citizens and good people,” he shares. “When you give back to the community you get out of it a lot more than you put in.” — Amber Foster

lacer SPCA Board President John Mason has a passion for animal welfare, but for him it’s about more than helping animals—it’s about helping people, too. “Abuse of animals tends to translate into abuse of people,” he argues. “If we can educate kids at a young age, we can prevent other kinds of abuse as well.” Mason supports education programs to teach children how to take care of their pets, and over the next few years, he and his team hope to open a larger adoption facility on Yosemite Street in Roseville. Providing even more humane and stress-free housing for their animals is one of Mason’s many goals.

PlacerGROWN and Foothill Farmers’ Market WHAT’S IN SEASON NOW: Arugula What’s delicious in a salad, on sandwiches or burgers, and pairs well with avocado, blue cheese, garlic, pasta, pears and pine nuts? Arugula! A vegetable/ herb with a peppery, mustard flavor, arugula leaves somewhat resemble dandelion leaves and are especially delicious this time of year.
DID YOU KNOW? Europeans, who refer to arugula as salad rocket, have known for centuries about the goodness of this dark green veggie. Once considered an aphrodisiac, monasteries in the Middle Ages forbade the sensual produce to be grown. It wasn’t until the 1980s that this versatile produce item gained popularity in the U.S. Traditionally collected in the wild or grown in home gardens— along with basil and parsley—by 2006, arugula was considered to
SELECTION AND STORAGE: When shopping for arugula, look for leaves that are dark green and uniform in color. For the best taste, avoid selecting yellowed or wilted bunches. Smaller arugula leaves tend to be milder than larger ones. Most chefs prefer using the smaller leaves in salads, especially when combined with other lettuces. Arugula should be rinsed with cool water and dried on paper towels before placing in a plastic container or bag and refrigerating. Arugula’s flavor is best when consumed within two to three days of purchasing.

asking them open-ended questions, which will help you understand their belief in life insurance. • Why do you sell life insurance? Give me an example of how you built a unique plan for a situation similar to mine. • Have you ever turned down a prospective policyholder and why? • How much life insurance should I have and why? • Rank the top three reasons why to buy life insurance. The key to any interview is to let the person you’re interviewing talk and talk some more. If that doesn’t happen, leave. If they’re asking you a lot of questions, you most likely have a good provider/businessperson in front of you. Find out how much the person cares over how much they know; in a time of need, you and your family will want someone who cares. —Russell Postell License #0H30718 Farmers Insurance, Granite Bay 916-751-7922, farmersagent.com/ rpostell stylemg.com). The spicy characteristics of the salad’s arugula is perfect to pair with a crisp, chilled white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Roussanne or a dry Rosé. The citrus and floral notes of these lighter-style wines also complement the sweet-tart plum in the salad. You can find these wines at most Placer County wineries, including Secret Ravine Winery, Wise Villa Winery and Casque Wines. — Susan Belknap For the recipe to make Asian Inspired Mizuna and Arugula Salad with Fresh Plums, visit stylemg.com.

Ugly Mug Café
he restaurant space located at the Taylor and King crossroads in Loomis has seen some changes over the last 20 years. As a waitress, Linda Lawrence witnessed the transition from Ham n’ Eggs to the Harvest Grill. At a crossroads herself, Lawrence took over ownership of the space in June of 2008, quickly turning the renamed Ugly Mug Café into a local institution. I visited the breakfast and lunch spot on a recent Sunday morning with my mother and one-year-old son. The place was packed with patrons that seemed to be on familiar terms with both the friendly wait staff and one another. The café takes advantage of locally grown ingredients, with more than 30 hearty and healthy signature plates to choose from—many named after the patrons Linda served during the space’s previous incarnations. I went with Diana’s Delight: a fluffy omelet stuffed with sprouts, avocado, cream cheese and turkey, topped with

photograph,” Torney says. “It is something the whole family can be involved in.” Some of Torney’s favorite things on which to focus are old buildings and barns. “These buildings always remind me of a simpler time,” she says. “It is great to discover new things and see details you might miss by just passing by.” Torney got hooked on photography as a kid. Using a borrowed camera she shot photos of the Sea Lion Caves on the Oregon coast. At 11 years old, she entered her work in the Linn County Fair and placed in the show. “It wasn’t just the prize-winning ribbon that got me,” Torney says. “It was the discussion with the judges about my work that sparked my passion.” Her parents encouraged her to keep taking photos and a year later she purchased her very own camera. However, as any normal teen, the distractions of peers and school took her away from the art. She dabbled for years before seriously starting her fine art photography business, and in the last five years has become even more focused on her love for the camera. What’s more, Hollywood has taken notice. One of Torney’s pieces, Modern Florals, was chosen to be part of a celebrity gift bag that was presented to the 2013 Academy Award nominees and presenters. The bags distributed at the GBK Luxury Gift Lounge in late February were a big hit with stars such as Robert Knepper and Evan Handle. “The celebrities loved the images,” Torney says. Locally, you can view Torney’s work at Taylor’s Art & Soul in Old Sacramento. “I love being outside in nature,” Torney says. “It’s a form of therapy for me.” And for us too, since we have the pleasure of gazing at her amazing work.

late bloomers A Guide to Midlife Maternity by Jenn Thornton
EXPECT POSSIBILITIES Advancing maternal age is still associated with an increase in complications for both the mother and child. “Over-40 mothers are two to five percent more likely to have gestational diabetes, placental abnormalities, high blood pressure and miscarriage than younger women,” Dr. Gordon explains. “The baby is also at risk of genetic disorders such as Down syndrome, premature birth, low birth weight, asphyxia and stillbirth.”
for granting advancing-aged women, and those with significant medical problems, the opportunity to have a healthy pregnancy and delivery. She also relays that the number of women giving birth in their 40s and 50s is at record highs. “According to the CDC, the birth rate for these women has been increasing steadily for the last decade,” she adds. “This has been attributed to the improvement of reproductive medicine and prenatal care.”
EXPECT TO PROTECT EXPECT PROGRESS The above information, combined with the Center of Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) report that infertility affects about 11 percent of women (6.1 million), does not add up to the most favorable odds—but they’re not necessarily a deal breaker. “The options and availability for infertility treatments to women in the U.S. have improved over the past decades,” notes Dr. Gordon, crediting this progress 24 stylemg.com - June 2013
It is essential to safeguard the body’s extremely fragile reproductive system. Take the necessary steps to prevent STDs, many of which don’t exhibit signs of infection, making regular checkups essential. Choosing the right contraception can keep you on fertile ground, so discuss details with a doctor. Fibroids, endometriosis, diabetes and cancer can also impact fertility as one ages. Given this information, step up the protective measures—don’t smoke
or expose yourself to toxins, maintain normal body weight, eat a well-balanced diet and exercise regularly. Adds Dr. Gordon, “Starting folic acid supplementation three to six months prior to planned conception is recommended, and make sure that all existing health problems, like diabetes and high blood pressure, are under control. Having regular visits with your health care provider can help you optimize your health prior to conception.”
EXPECT A POSITIVE OUTCOME No pregnancy is without risk, but there are plenty of good-news post-40 pregnancy stories out there. “We are seeing over-40 pregnancies much more often that are successful,” confirms Dr. Gordon, crediting better medical care with advancements in cutting-edge infertility treatment for improving midlife mothers’ chances of conceiving and having a healthy pregnancy and delivery.
EXPECT EXPERIENCE TO COUNT “In some ways, age is an asset, not a liability,” Dr. Gordon notes. “As women mature they can become more emotionally ready to be a parent. More life experience and financial stability can accompany a pregnancy for the older and wiser.”

P
ushing 40 and preggers? No, this is not a reality show, but it is reality for an increasing number of women who have delayed pregnancy to pursue other plans or simply mature. Although age absolutely affects reproduction rates, conceiving midlife does happen (shout-out to Kelly Preston and company). So even if you’re late to the pregnancy game, you’re not out. Here, Dignity Health’s Dr. Carrie Gordon, OB/ GYN with Mercy Hospital of Folsom, advises on what to expect when you’re expecting later in life.

Toft Facial Plastic Surgery Kenneth M. Toft, M.D. 959 Reserve Dr. | Roseville 916-782-8638 | www.toftfacialsurgery.com Kenneth M. Toft, M.D. is the Director of Toft Facial Plastic Surgery in Roseville, California. He dedicates 100% of his practice to facial cosmetic surgery. This is in contrast to many surgeons that perform liposuction and breast augmentation, who can spend as little as 20% of their time on the face. Complete dedication to facial plastic surgery is very important for several reasons: the complex anatomy of the face, the need to keep up with the latest techniques of facial rejuvenation, and the importance of facial features in defining individuality. The results of facial plastic surgery are not hidden under clothes; they are seen every day by friends in public and by oneself in the mirror. For these reasons, only the most specialized and highly trained facial plastic surgeon should be selected. Throughout his career Dr. Toft has demonstrated a commitment to excellence. Dr. Toft graduated from college in the top 3% and medical school in the top 10% of his class at the University of Michigan. He then underwent surgical training at Stanford University, with four years completely focused on the face and
neck. Dr. Toft was then selected to be a UCLA Clinical Instructor in Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery where he studied with world experts in cosmetic surgery. In 2000, Dr. Toft moved to the Sacramento area to become the Medical Director of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Mercy San Juan and to open the Toft Facial Plastic Surgery Center. Dr. Toft believes the goal of cosmetic surgery is to create improvement while maintaining a natural and balanced appearance. This natural appearance is achieved through the use of modern techniques to make his patients look younger, refreshed, and healthy, never overdone or “operated.” The natural balance of facial features is what creates identity, displays emotion, and establishes level of health. Because each face is different, the goals of surgery for each person is individualized. Dr. Toft draws on his extensive training, aesthetic sense, and personal touch to achieve better balance and improved symmetry for all of his patients’ unique facial features.

risky business The Truth About Youth Sexting by Jenn Thornton
I
f you’re not talking to your kids about “sexting,” there’s someone in a chat room ready to have that conversation. Here, a look at the latest.
THE ISSUE Typically kids, particularly those with poor self-worth or who are easily influenced, seek approval through “sexting.” Youth compelled to act by someone they love or trust are also vulnerable, especially teens, since they inherently struggle to see the
mon than parents realize—and that no child is immune to it—there are certain personalities more prone to persuasion, including kids with a strong need for romantic or sexual attention, those without media limits or supervision, and those with an intrinsic lack of forethought.
THE SEXTING EFFECT Initially, the cost of sexting might include possible humiliation and exploitation, while long-term social consequences include
Further points of discussion include lack of control. Explain that information doesn’t disappear because it’s not there— it can be forwarded, copy and pasted, or saved. “Remind kids that, yes, the recipient might be someone they trust now… but no one can predict the future,” Dancy explains. “They put themselves in a vulnerable position to allow anyone to have compromising photos of them. [But] having a conversation about sex with your kid will not prepare them for how to handle sexting. Both need to be addressed.” Technologically speaking, kids are a step savvier than their folks, so foster open dialogue to educate and establish a mutual relationship where kids can come to you with questions and concerns. Also, set limits on technology usage and use logic (e.g., always consider age and maturity). Finally, communicate your parental right to monitor their activity and institute fair rules—no late-night technology in the bedroom or for long unsupervised periods. As trustworthiness and responsible usage of technology is exhibited, slowly loosen the reins, but never hand them over entirely.
•
THE TARGET On average, sexting becomes an issue in middle school, when kids increasingly navigate social and romantic relationships without as much parental oversight. The mix of freedom, access and naïveté creates something of a perfect storm. Although Dancy feels sexting is more com-

bullying, harassment and sexual objectification, which can lead to poor self-esteem, depression, anxiety, social withdrawal, etc. Legally, implications for minors discovered in possession of nude photos, which is considered child pornography, can lead to further trouble if discovered.
“THE TALK” 2.0 Preferably, approach the issue with your kids before they have access to a smartphone or media device. But don’t make the discussion solely about sex—focus on the real-world consequences of posting explicit or embarrassing material, and use examples of others who have been hurt by such actions. Pose helpful and thoughtprovoking questions like, “How did it affect their reputation?’”

big picture. Society also exacts sway, normalizing and even glorifying under-age sex. “If a child or teen is spending a great deal of time online, you can bet they are seeing sexually explicit content,” explains Krysta Dancy, M.A., M.F.T., and supervisor/ co-director of The Place Within Counseling Center (theplacewithincounselingcenter. com). “It can begin to feel like it is normal.

cess, and emergency response efforts. According to ALGP President Jo Ann Murano, the Thrift Shop “sells quality used clothing and household goods at bargain prices to clientele on limited budgets, as well as to others looking for a good deal.” Additional funds are raised through grants, taxdeductible donations and special events. “There are no salaries. All the money goes back into our community programs,” explains ALGP Corresponding Secretary Sandy Slaton. “You get a wonderful and rewarding feeling when you help others be successful and smile.” ALGP’s signature program, Operation School Bell, provides new clothes and supplies to children in need and holds a special place in the hearts of many members. “[The kids] shop for their own clothes and get what they like,” explains Thrift Shop General Manager Janet Wheatley. “I love to watch their faces when they select their new clothes and then model them for us. When I was growing up, we had very little. I seldom got new clothes and can relate to what these children are feeling.” According to former ALGP President Vicki Harris, each program is evaluated annually to ensure that services already provided by other organizations are not being duplicated. “In developing our programs for the community, we work with school

districts, social and welfare agencies, and various institutions to identify a true need,” she says. By the end of their fiscal year in May 2012, Harris and her fellow volunteers reported that their chapter donated 42,214 hours to more than 13,000 members of the Placer County community, a significant portion of the 2.8 million service hours donated nationally. “In addition to giving back, I have been introduced to some of the most remarkable and talented women,” Murano says. “Our goal is the same. We are part of Assistance League because we want to be. We want to help make a difference—knowing that we do gives us the energy to do more.”

ith a name like Assistance League of Greater Placer (ALGP), one might imagine the women behind the Auburn-based nonprofit as a band of caped crusaders. True, their efforts are heroic, but you’re more likely to find them visiting area seniors or donating school supplies than patrolling the Sierra skies. Valerie Harrison is part of the crusade. She remembers the moment she became involved with ALGP like it was yesterday. Having just moved to Auburn, she was still unpacking when a neighbor approached and said she was looking for someone to take her place within the organization. “I went to the next meeting with her and was impressed with the friendliness and camaraderie of the ladies and decided to give membership a try,” Harrison recalls. “That was back in 2004 and I have never regretted a minute of it.” Founded in 1987, ALGP is an officially chartered chapter of National Assistance League. According to its Web site, the organization “puts caring and commitment into action through community-based philanthropic programs.” The local chapter’s volunteer-run Thrift Shop is the main source of funds for programs, including Angels for Aging, Assault Survivor Kits, Competencies for Independent Living, Dressing for Suc-

celebrate america 8 Independence Day Party Ideas by Kerrie Kelly
T
here’s something special about Fourth of July festivities, and this year we’re planning get-togethers that are simple, stress-free and kid-friendly. Stars and stripes? You bet. A red, white and blue palette? For sure. Here are just a few classic, nofail ideas to make your home and garden Independence Day ready.
1. PUT YOUR PICNIC ON WHEELS Gather your friends, neighbors, family members and dogs, and take it outside. Whether you’re heading into town for the annual parade or hitting the front lawn for a low-key picnic on the grass, this party works. Once you get the gang on board, prepare to take your party on the go. Load up a wagon and roll it to your destination.
2. PARK IT CURBSIDE Once the kids are outside, it’s important to have some activities planned before the pop-a-wheelies begin. Surprise your bunch by whipping out a basket of tricks filled with all sorts of goodies. Kazoos, pinwheels, yo-yos and bubbles always seem to do the trick!
3. LOAD UP ON PARTY PROPS In true Fourth of July spirit, fill a basket or bucket with red, white and blue trimmings. Visit the Dollar Tree or your local party shop and load up on all sorts of inexpensive items—from flag picks to metallic shooting stars and streamers. Don’t overlook the décor meant for tables, walls and ceilings—most of it will look pretty sharp on your two-wheeler, too.
Show off pride for our country with an adorable and delectable centerpiece. In honor of the date, display a metal “4” house number inside a vase filled with Americana-colored candies. Insert classic sparklers or berry skewers decorated with colorful ribbon flags and voila, instant centerpiece.
5. SPELL IT OUT Show your American pride with colorful letters. Buy plain wooden letters at a craft store or on Etsy and get creative with red, white and blue paint. Mix and match solid colors with stars and stripes. If necessary, coat the letters with polyurethane for durability.
6. FLAGS ON PARADE Display Old Glory as artwork. Start with a small flag and gently remove the cloth from the stick. Center the flag on a mat inside a frame with no glass. Glue only the top edge of the flag to the mat, so it appears to be blowing in the breeze.
7. STAR SPANGLED THROW PILLOWS Create a seasonal pillow using understated motifs that can be 36 stylemg.com - June 2013
displayed year-round. Stitch a “USA” monogram onto a solid color throw pillow; use a button fastener to embellish another pillow with buttons in the shape of a star.
8. STARSTRUCK ENTRY Make a bold patriotic statement by sprucing up your front door with a ribbon-wrapped star. Loosely tie a ribbon around a metal star and loop the ribbon around a hook or outdoor light fixture; secure with a knot. Make the star the focus by hanging a wreath behind it. With these ideas at your fingertips, you’ll be ready to celebrate America in style!

My Thai Table A Refined Taste by Kelly Soderlund Photography by Dante Fontana
The steak and veggie combination was both savory and spicy, yet surprisingly light. Thai Ginger Stir-Fry
T
he Quarry Ponds Town Center in Granite Bay has seen a welcome addition with the opening of My Thai Table. Featuring a large, serene patio and a huge open kitchen, the restaurant is co-joined by a large hallway that attaches the corner restaurant to the shopping center’s retail space. This little quirk is easily overlooked, however, as My Thai Table—with its soaring ceiling and richly colored walls—is clearly a defined space. My dining partner and I began our meal with the chicken satay, which featured four marinated and grilled chicken tenders accompanied by peanut sauce and a cucumber salad. The chicken was flavorful and juicy, which can be a dif-

ficult task, but My Thai Table nailed it. For entrées, my dining partner selected the Thai ginger stir-fry, which consisted of sautéed beef with a medley of garlic, onions, mushrooms, bell peppers and fresh ginger. The steak and veggie combination was both savory and spicy, yet surprisingly light. All menu items can be made according to your spice preference and come with a choice of brown or white rice. I chose the papaya salad (Ms. Meg’s Som Tom), a combination of green papaya, tomatoes and peanuts, seasoned with lime, garlic and nam pla (fish sauce). To create a heartier dish, I asked for grilled prawns on my salad—a request that was readily granted. The owner handpicks all produce items at a local farmers’ market,
and this salad spectacularly showcased the farm-to-table freshness. My Thai Table’s master chefs, along with the owner, have deep roots from Petchaboon, Thailand, and their dedication to reproducing quality, authentic dishes here in Granite Bay is a refreshing change of pace. As we stood up, meal having been devoured, I asked our attentive server about the Thai writing that sprawled over the walls. She replied they were sayings of well wishes—a sentiment that patrons of My Thai Table undoubtedly reciprocate.

taste Grilled Carne Asada Tacos 200 Easy Mexican Recipes by Kelley Cleary Coffeen (Robert Rose, Inc., 2013, $24.95) Tip: There are several different cuts of meat you can use for this recipe. Skirt steak or minute steaks are best due to the thin cut and quick cooking time. • 1 1⁄2 lbs beef skirt or minute steak (see tip) • 12 6- to 8-inch flour or corn tortillas • Pico de Gallo (see following recipe) • 2 limes, each cut into 6 wedges
Marinade: In a medium bowl, combine lemon juice, garlic, jalapeños, teriyaki sauce, bell pepper, sugar and salt until sugar and salt have dissolved. In a large resealable plastic bag, add marinade and meat and seal. Work marinade through meat with your fingers. Refrigerate meat for at least 2 hours or for up to 6 hours. Preheat greased barbecue grill to medium. Remove meat from marinade, discarding marinade. Grill meat for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from grill and let stand for 8 to 10 minutes. Carve meat across the grain into thin slices, then cut into bite-size pieces. To build tacos, skillet warm tortillas. Divide meat equally among tortillas and top with Pico de Gallo. Fold tortillas in half. Serve with a sliced lime. Makes 12 tacos. Pico de Gallo • 4 tomatoes, seeded and diced • 4 green onions, greens parts only, minced • 3 jalapeño peppers, seeded and minced • 2 serrano chile peppers, seeded and minced • 1 onion, finely chopped 52 stylemg.com - June 2013
dinner date Food and Wine for the Season • 2 tbsp. minced fresh cilantro • Juice of 2 limes • Kosher salt In a large bowl, combine tomatoes, green onions, jalapeños, serrano chiles, onion and cilantro. Add lime juice and mix well. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate, stirring occasionally, for 1 hour or for up to 24 hours. Add salt to taste just before serving. Makes 2 cups.
SEAN MINOR FOUR BEARS CHARDONNAY 2011 CENTRAL COAST Sean Minor and his family live in Sacramento, but source grapes from all over California to make their wines. Considering the quality, Minor obviously has some great grape sources, as he produces top caliber wines at reasonable prices. I have been a fan of Sean Minor wines for several years, but think his current line-up includes some of the best available. I especially like the Chardonnay from his Four Bears label, named for his four children and sold at an affordable price point. Minor also produces wines under the Sean Minor label—which are a little higher in price (in comparison to the Four Bears’ bottles)—including a Cabernet Sauvignon, a Pinot Noir and a red table blend. Sean Minor Four Bears Chardonnay 2011 is a great summer wine, full of apples and white peach flavors. With a little butter, a little oak and a little acidity, it’s amazingly balanced and will keep every Chardonnay drinker at your party happy! Selling at about $14 a bottle, this wine’s a perfect choice for barbecuing with friends and will definitely complement this month’s recipe, Grilled Carne Asada Tacos. —Richard Righton, Owner Bidwell Street Bistro in Folsom

introducing Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you? Culinary Comfort provides clients with a personal party chef in the comfort of their own home. Whether it’s an anniversary dinner for two, a large cocktail party, or a sitdown dinner for 10, I will do the cooking, serve a four-course meal and clean up—all in my client’s own kitchen. I meet with the client and help them develop a menu based on their theme or special food requests, and then do all of the shopping. I am talented at adapting recipes according to any food allergies or dietary requests a client or guest may have, as well as providing clients with “clean” food and homemade recipes. I have always loved to cook and get creative in the kitchen, so it was only natural for me to “find” this business. I had wanted to start my own business but couldn’t decide what to do, then decided to turn my passion for making people happy through food into a business. Who is your role model in business or in life, and why? Serena Olson My family. The Portuguese side of my family has always been hard-working and great at cooking. I have so many great memories in the kitchen surrounded by good food, laughter and family. Culinary Comfort Where do you go when the going gets tough? Lincoln Sometimes I like to take a drive down a country back road, but for the most part I turn to my 916-295-3527 husband. He is my biggest fan and supporter. We go to the gym and work out the stress. culinarycomfortforyou.com What’s your favorite place to eat out locally? It depends what I’m craving. There aren’t many places I go to all of the time since we love trying new restaurants; however, one of the places we frequent (when we crave tacos) is Los Gallos Taqueria in Lincoln. It’s the best, and they also have a little market that makes fresh pastries and bread daily. And finally, customer service is…? The most important aspect of a business. Without customers there would be no business.

Christine Lee, Pharm.D., BCPS

Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you? Optimal Life provides self-educational health tools to empower people to get in control of their chronic health conditions, such as diabetes, asthma, hypertension and breast cancer. The message we teach is that having a chronic health condition should not stop a person from doing the things they love or leading an optimal life—it’s a matter of learning how to get in control; that’s what we help our clients do. I “found” my business because I saw people with chronic conditions feeling scared, out of control, and feeling like life was going to pass them by, and I knew I could make a difference. Why is your staff the best in the business? My staff and I care so much for each person we connect with; we want to help everyone be as healthy as they can be. What life accomplishments are you most proud of? My greatest life accomplishments are my two children. Both are finishing medical school now, and they have big hearts. Who is your role model in business or in life, and why? My business role model is Tony Robbins—he’s created a successful business by helping others. Where do you go when the going gets tough? I go work out! What’s your biggest job perk? When I hear from people that they used the information from Optimal Life and are getting healthier and leading happier lives as a result. What’s your favorite place to eat out locally? Il Fornaio is my go-to restaurant for a great dinner out. What’s your favorite local event that you go to? My favorite local event is the annual Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation’s Passport to a Cure Gala! This year’s event was held April 13 at the Sheraton Grand Sacramento Hotel. I wouldn’t miss this event for anything.

Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you? We are in the business of helping people feel better, both on the inside and outside. My business provides people with semi-private training, group sessions and athletic conditioning. We help to rehabilitate injuries, reduce pain, and increase range of motion and flexibility with the added benefit of fat loss and increased muscle. StayFIT found me. After graduating from college, I moved to California, started massage school and became a certified personal trainer and massage therapist. I would exercise but didn’t completely enjoy it. I never got that “runner’s high” everyone claims to get. Exercise has grown on me as a way of life. I don’t necessarily feel like doing it, but I’m certainly happy after I do it. Understanding this has allowed me to help others “enjoy” exercise. I always knew I wanted to help people feel better, and now I have a way. The rest is history. Why is your staff the best in the business? Breann Zweck We listen to our customers and have a genuine interest in their well-being and for preventing injuries. We absolutely love seeing our clients accomplish things they StayFIT never even thought of trying. 8300 Sierra College Boulevard What’s your hidden talent? Suite G, Roseville I grew up in Minnesota and waterskied on a show ski team. We performed a themed show 916-782-9348 throughout the area doing pyramids, barefooting, jumping and various other acts. stayfit-today.com What’s your favorite place to eat out locally? Paul Martin’s American Bistro. And finally, customer service is…? Making certain our costumers are heard. Many trainers have their own agenda. We want you to get the results you seek to achieve. There are no cookie-cutter programs here. If you don’t like an exercise, we find one better suited for you. If you have an injury or medical condition, we work with it, not avoid it. We think the customer is the most important part of our day and welcome them to our family. Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you? My interior design services are meant to maximize creativity and style for a client and save them valuable time. I also offer unique furniture and accessory pieces that are not available in area stores. I found design at the age of three; I recall straightening the doctor’s office magazines and telling my mom the office needed a plant and some yellow paint (my favorite color as a toddler). What was the first job you ever had, and what did you learn from the experience? Babysitting the neighborhood children was my first job. It allowed me to feel responsible, and I love children so I enjoyed it. How are you involved with both the community and your customer? I believe in the Alternatives Pregnancy Center (APC) in Sacramento. They provide teens with resources and parenting classes, which helps young struggling parents with the common dilemmas that come up. I’m also active in my church, Bayside West of Roseville. We have terrific programs, which include helping the local homeless community and providing meals for families in need. I’m a member of both the Roseville Chamber of Commerce and Downtown Roseville, which allows me to meet people from all walks of life and get involved in community happenings.

love of the game Gold Country Vintage Base Ball
T
he hurler steps into his box and eyes the behind. The striker grips his timber and digs in, looking to tally an ace with a good shot past tenders and scouts. But if it’s caught, it’s a hand. Three hands and you’re down. Meanwhile, the cranks are in the stands, just waiting for a chance to razz the sir for a bad call. And if a ballist shows some ginger? Well then, huzzahs all around. Huh? Welcome to baseball, circa 1880, when fouls didn’t count as strikes, seven balls was a walk, the pitcher could fake his throw, and it wasn’t unusual—or illegal— for a defensive player to hide the ball in his armpit. And here in 2013, you can still see it played that way. The eight-year-old Gold Country Vintage Base Ball is a league based in Amador County and is the brainchild of Mike “Goose” Kerry, a former Amador school superintendent who had a love of both the game and its history. “When he retired it was his idea to bring vintage baseball to the West Coast,” says “Dirty” Dan Duran, a player and one of the league’s biggest advocates. “There were vintage leagues on the East Coast at the time, but none out here.” Kerry’s idea was to start one as a tribute to “Mudville 9,” the famed team from the classic poem “Casey at the Bat,” which some legends say was based on a 19th century team from Stockton. Six clubs, from Jackson, Ione, Rancho Murietta and now a squad in Folsom, with names like the Crushers, Miners and Pioneers, play nearly every spring and summer weekend, including three games at Folsom Lake High School on June 16. Jackson resident Duran, 36, whose playing name is “Dirty” (“All players had nicknames back in the day,” he notes), has been suiting up since the beginning. He played high school ball in Roseville and joined the league after moving to the Gold Country. When watching a game, everything is 66 stylemg.com - June 2013
so authentic you half wish it was sepia toned—from the uniforms, which are custom-made by a vintage uniform company and cost upwards of $300, to rules and lingo, which the players actually use. “Aces,” for example, are runs. Players are “ballists,” with infielders known as “tenders,” outfielders, “scouts.” Spectators are “cranks” (still an apt description for some today), outs are “hands,” and top-hat wearing umpires are known as “sirs” because, after all, baseball was a gentleman’s game. Bats are “timber” (and look like it), and if a ballist shows some “ginger,” it means he hustled. These guys were, and are, tough: “Fielders’ mitts are literally no more padded than a leather gardening glove,” Duran says. Fielding a hard-hit grounder requires not only quick reflexes but ample finesse, too. As for catchers—“behinds” back in the day (good thing they changed that one)—their gloves were slightly more padded but not enough that “hurlers” (pitchers) could throw with the velocity you see now, so they made up for it with an array of trick pitches, which become more effective as the game progresses (the ball becomes misshapen the more it gets hit). That also makes things interesting on defense. “There’s no such thing as a routine play,” Duran sighs, massaging several bruised fingers from the game I watched. The league consists of young guns in their 20s to men in their 60s, and Duran says they would love to expand. “We want to get into Roseville and Sacramento,” but admits there is some trepidation, not just because of the initial cost of uniforms and gear, but also because those who have never seen the game before “get a little apprehensive about hard balls being pitched from 50 feet away.” Because that’s another piece of authenticity the guys adhere to: The pitcher is 10 feet closer than in the modern game and “strikers” (batters) don’t wear helmets. Find a game, come out, and let ‘em hear your huzzahs, because no matter what era, cheering is still music to a ballists’ ears.
