can’t believe we’ve already made it through half of 2020! Summer made its debut quickly, after one of the most beautiful spring seasons we’ve ever seen. Realistically, I probably just noticed it more this year because I’ve been home instead of traveling. Nevertheless, I did my spring cleaning, wrote an e-book cookbook, and created a podcast

where I chat about my travels and love for food. My best friend, Andrea, is my frequent co-host on the podcast. We met 18 years ago at a tennis drill when she walked on the court wearing her walkman headphones and Ray-ban sunglasses. She had long legs and a great backhand. I thought she was the coolest person

VALUE NEWS ROGERS COUNTY JULY 2020 WWW.VALUENEWS.COM

I’d ever seen. A few months later, our team went to “tennis camp” in south Texas, and Andrea was assigned as my roommate. She brought a sixpack of beer and a German travel guide. She was planning a trip with her mother to Germany that summer, which gave us something to talk about. I had been to Germany a couple of times, and when I started

making suggestions for her trip, I slowly gained some credibility. I recall very little about the tennis training we did at camp, but our evenings were the most memorable. Our tennis coaches served us dinner and cranked up the music with karaoke microphones. Once again, Andrea was the star. She knew the words to every 70s and 80s song on the playlist, and she had the moves to go with them. Since we were roommates, she was kind enough to share the spotlight by letting me sing with her. It was the beginning of our friendship. Since that first trip, we have traveled together at least once a year, usually with our friend, Kim. We plan every meal as if it’s our last, and we never miss an opportunity to put a few dollars in the slot machine, promising to share the winnings, which rarely happens. As we’ve gotten older, we go to bed earlier despite our intentions to stay out late. We spend at least an hour deciding on a movie to rent in our hotel room, and inevitably, Andrea and I are asleep 30 minutes into it, while Kim watches until the end. On my podcast, Dish It Out With Shannon Smith, Andrea and I talk about our friendship, family vacations and adventures around the world. I describe the food I’ve learned in my travels, and sometimes I cook special dishes for Andrea to try before we start recording. Find my podcast on Spotify, Google Play and Apple Podcast. And to make it more enjoyable, make my tarragon lemonade while you’re listening. Andrea and I think it makes everything more enjoyable!

CHEF SHANNON SMITH

Sparkling Lemonade with Gin and Tarragon Makes 4-6 servings - This is one of the most refreshing drinks for the summer! Lemons and tarragon are a great combination, and they pair beautifully with the gin and elderflower liqueur. I’ve made this cocktail in batches to serve at brunch and pool parties. If you want to keep it in the fridge, leave out the club soda until you’re ready to serve. • • • •

1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup water 8 sprigs of tarragon 2 lemons, thinly sliced

• 3/4 cup gin • 3/4 cup St. Germain (elderflower liqueur) • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice • 12 ounces Club Soda Combine the sugar and water in a small saucepan and place over medium-high heat. Bring to a low simmer and stir until sugar is melted. Let cool. Meanwhile, put the tarragon, lemons slices, gin, St. Germain, and lemon juice into a pitcher. Stir in the sugar syrup and club soda. Serve with a lemon slice.

How to finance a

Home Renovation or Construction The more you know, the better your decisions.

Decide your loan need.

Talk to a lender.

Choose a builder.

Construction-to-permanent

Know what you can afford

Make a list of possibilities

The lender releases money to the builder as phases of the construction are completed.

Construction only

A stand-alone construction loan. The homeowner takes two loans. The first loan finances the construction of the home and the second refinances the construction loan into a long-term mortgage.

Renovation construction

These loans are available to people who want to do a renovation, but do not have the money to finance it themselves. You have many options to pay for home improvements, including personal loans, lines of credit or government-insured loans.

Find out how much money you can borrow and the necessary down payment for the loan. Ask a lender to walk you through the process from short-term to longterm financing.

Understand interest

Know how the interest will be paid during construction and how it will change when you convert to a long-term mortgage.

Ask how loan will be paid out Construction loans are typi-

cally paid on a set schedule or as a percentage of project completion. Find out how your lender does payments and communicate that information to the builder before hiring them.

RCBbankMortgage.com | 855-BANK-RCB.

Call your local home builders association. Talk to your real estate agent and get references from people you know and trust.

Do your homework

Once you have a list, find out what kind of insurance the builders and their contractors have. Get references and call all of them. Tour model homes and pay attention to details.

Stay involved Depending on your loan type, your lender will monitor the progress of the project to ensure invoices are paid for work completed. Good communication is key to a successful renovation or home construction project.

Restrictions, limitations and conditions apply for all loan types with approved credit. Opinions expressed above are the personal opinions of the author and meant for generic illustration purposes only.

Oklahoma’s s u o i r e t s MyMansions BY CHRIS PUTMAN

When viewing homes today, individuals can drive through subdivisions and see houses showcasing a cookie-cutter look. They all seem to have similar designs displaying brick, stone and wood or some with the newer white farmhouse style, and most so much alike a resident could get lost in their own neighborhood. There are some houses, however, that pepper the state that are a standout and worth an extensive tour or at least a drive-by.

Overholser Mansion,

Oklahoma City Considered the first mansion in Oklahoma, the Overholser Mansion was built in Oklahoma City’s Heritage Hills neighborhood in 1903 and is located at 405 Northwest 15th St. Henry Overholser, referred to as the “Father of Oklahoma City” chose the Queen Anne and Chateauesque architectural styles for the house, something regarded as being out of style. The Overholsers did not bat an eye at the criticism. The home was later considered a beauty and is now on 10 |

the National Register of Historic Places. Currently, tours will consist of the first floor only, are given on the hour at 10 a.m., noon and 2 p.m. and lasting about 35-45 minutes. Admission is $5 for adults, seniors, students and children. Children under age six are admitted free. Mysteries of the Mansion or Scary Tales specialty tours are also

VALUE NEWS ROGERS COUNTY JULY 2020 WWW.VALUENEWS.COM

available. More information can be found at www.overholsermansion. org/ or tours can be scheduled by calling 405-525-5325 or emailing overholsermansion@preservationok.org.

Harwelden Mansion, Tulsa

Harwelden Mansion, a national historic landmark, is a Collegiate Gothic-English Tudor-style mansion located on a three-acre lot that overlooks the Arkansas River at 2210 S. Main St. in Tulsa. It was built in 1923 by a wealthy oilman and philanthropist Earl Harwell and designed by architects Wight and Wight. The structure stands four-stories high, and the 15,000-square-foot mansion, carriage house and gardens occupy a full city block. Every other Thursday enthusiasts can take a walking tour of the mansion, grounds and carriage house and the tour ends with cookies and a cup of English Tea. Guests learn about the Mansion’s history, the Harwell family and its architecture, renovations and use over the

years. The home boasts of spectacular stained glass, a stunning staircase and breathtaking gardens. The Harwelden functions as a bed & breakfast and the entire home is available to rent to groups or guests can stay in individual rooms. The mansion is located just minutes from downtown Tulsa where visitors can attend Tulsa-based events or dine in Tulsa’s best restaurants. Many couples utilize the mansion as a backdrop in which they say their vows, or its beauty is perfect for photography sessions.

E.W. Marland Mansion, Ponca City Located in Ponca City is a stunning structure titled the E. W. Marland Mansion, a 43,561 square foot Mediterranean Revival-style mansion. Because it was the dream of successful oil baron Marland to live in a palace, architect John Duncan Forsyth partnered his talents with artists, sculptors and decorators to erect the “Palace on the Prairie” completed

in 1928 after three years of construction. Four-stories high, the home showcases 55 rooms with 10 bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, seven fireplaces, three kitchens and interestingly takes 861 light bulbs to light. The home is located on 34 acres at 901 Monument Road. Guided tours provide views throughout the home as well

Frank Phillips Home, Bartlesville Oilman Frank Phillips not only found success in Bartlesville, but he also found his permanent home, the Frank Phillips Home. There he built his 26-room Neo-Classical mansion in 1909 with architect Walter Everman. It was the first home in Oklahoma to enjoy air conditioning in 1938. The front entrance is adorned with stunning columns, an elegant staircase greets guests at the entry and the rooms are rich in wood detail. Guided one-hour tours are provided for visitors. Tour guides share stories about the home’s architecture, renovations and additions as well as the stories about the family that lived within the four walls. Tours held Wednesday

There is a mansion tour, museum tour, grounds tour and side tours available. For more information, log on to www. marlandmansion.com, call 800-4228340 or email marlandmansion@ poncacityok.gov. “The biggest takeaway is people are overwhelmed by the beauty, size and scope of the building,” E.W. Marland Estate Executive Director David Keathly said. “It is always interesting to see their first expression when visitors walk in the front door. Their eyes open wider and their jaws drop when they enter as their first sight is 2½ stories of the mansion.”

be booked at 918-336-2491 and more information can be found at www.frankphillipshome.org/tourthe-home.

Belvidere Mansion, Claremore In the historic district of downtown Claremore sits the Victorian-style Belvidere Mansion. Constructed by the Bayless family in 1907, the home showcases four expansive towers, breathtaking woodcarving throughout the main first-floor rooms and rises three stories to cover 9,000 square feet. The second floor provided living quarters for the original family and the third floor is a 3200 square foot ballroom that was designed with a skylight that opened to allow the hot air of the home to escape during the summer months. Wealthy entrepreneur, builder, businessman and real estate agent John Melville Bayless built the home but did not have the opportunity to enjoy it; he died before it was finished. His widow and children moved in upon completion on Christmas day. A self-guided tour is free and open to the public. A bonus to the home visit is there is an onsite teahouse. Weddings, bridal showers, baby showers, receptions,

rehearsal dinners and tea parties are often held at the home. Located at 121 North Chickasaw Ave., the Belvidere Mansion and Gift Shop is open Tuesday through Saturday from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. The teahouse is open Monday through Saturday from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. For more information, log on to www.belvideremansion. com/reviews/home. Visitors can call (918) 342-1127 or e-mail BelvidereClaremore@gmail.com. Oral Roberts University Assistant Professor Rhonda Gallagher teaches communication but also has a passion for history. She enjoys visiting homes that tell a historic story. “I think the Belvidere is my favorite because of all the stained glass and materials that were brought from abroad,” Gallagher said. “The tours also give details about the people who lived there…provide some valuable reminders that Oklahoma in the early days was not all rough and ready.”

Because of the physical distancing aspect built into the tours of any one of these homes, some visits may limit the number of people in one group, may require masks, have changes in days and times of tours or have other limitations. Make sure to call ahead for reservations and restrictions. WWW.VALUENEWS.COM JULY 2020 ROGERS COUNTY VALUE NEWS

Royal Aills

Public Television’s Broadcast Media tracking companies says across the country the coronavirus may have rocked our world but there is a silver lining to the public’s lifestyle change or viewing habits. And Okies are not any different.

General Manager, RSUTV

Nationally, according to these media tracking companies, television usage soared in the early days of the pandemic, (March/April). They observed that COVID-19 has been good for media consumption. Locally, specifically RSU Public TV, eyeballs increased as well. Staying at home during the lockdown resulted in large viewing increases for television news programming, which media researchers quoted as high as 19% for broadcast and 73% for cable. Ratings for network and cable entertainment series increased, too, as did streaming of TV shows. In the first three weeks of March, streaming rose 85% over the previous year. Public TV saw gains too, especially during early fringe and weekend dayparts. RSU Public TV daypart quickly became planned viewing and surpassing primetime programming. Classic Gospel with Bill Gaither remains RSU TV’s #1 show, America’s Test Kitchen moved into second place followed by Ellis Good Food and Cooks Country Kitchen. This is the first time since I’ve been at the station that cooking shows have competed for eyeballs. It’s great to know that when our viewers are at home, they have found RSU Public TV and like the programming we offer.

RSUTV SHOW Q&A Ellie Krieger from Ellie’s Real Good Food

JULY 2020 2020 || THE THE SIGNAL SIGNAL || 37 JULY

This onetime fashion model has modeled her career into the culinary arts. Ellie is a nutritionist/ chef turned author who is well known from her hit cooking series “Ellie’s Real Good Food” which airs RSU Public TV. She is a registered From OuronViewers dietitianfrom nutritionist Bobby Tulsa who earned her bachelor’s in nutrition from Cornell University her “Iclinical sure do love watching all of those British and shows master’s nutrition on RSU TV.in you recentlyeducation added 800from WordsTeacher’s to the CollegeSoColumbia An author lineup. happy youUniversity. did.

Thank you!” She recently sat down with RSU Public TV’s General Manager Royal Aills for a phone conversation Reed fromofSperry and Q&A.for airing the documentaries. I find them to “Thanks be of value, great story telling and I love the history.” Ellie, where has your love for food come from? My mother says that for me becoming a nutritionist Tom from Claremore is likeguys a pyromaniac a firefighter. I have “You keep addingbecoming a lot of great new shows.

RSU TV is That the only TV I watch. ” I realized the depth and breadth of the nutrition field is really were my heart was and where I really wanted to be. Today it is my joy, pleasure and honor to help people find the sweet spot where delicious and healthy foods meet.

So, what’s next? Some say media usage will falter and fall back in line as Northeast Oklahoma begins to open back up and we all get back to somewhat normal lives. However, the stay at home order showed how much people depend on Public TV. The general thought is, the bigger the crisis, the more viewers willnutritionist depend on are public TV. correct?

That’s very meaning full to me! at 2pm.

@HomeLearning

RSU Public TV Announces @HomeLearning Partnership with Public Schools In March of this year the State Department of Education was looking for options to keep kids in school or at best, keep parents, teachers and students of Northeastern Oklahoma engaged with learning during the ongoing confusion of the COVID 19 Pandemic. RSU Public TV “stepped up” in a big way by providing an over-the-air broadcast solution called “@HomeLearning.” Dr. Terry Saul Superintendent of Sequoyah Public Schools (Rogers County) reached out to RSU Public TV about offering over the air live classroom learning. He knew changes were coming due to the COVID-19 crisis, so he wanted to be ready. Saul said he was well aware that many of his students, as well as thousands of other students across northeastern Oklahoma and in metro Tulsa, would not be able to access distance learning/ online classes if schools should be closed.

4 | THE SIGNAL | JULY 2020

Dr Joy Hoffmister and the March 25 which essentially closed all public-school buildings to regular classroom and educational activities due to state and national COVID-19 public health restrictions. As a result, school districts across the state have been tasked with implementing Distance Learning Plans to continue engaging all PreK-12th grade students throughout the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year. The Oklahoma State Department of Education decided to work with public TV (PBS Affiliates) such as OETA to provide online distance learning through the PBS portal of PBS Kids. However, in rural Oklahoma access to high speed internet is not adequate enough to provide the streams needed to access the PBS content. Dr. Saul said, “RSU Public TV is free and can be accessed by any student who has a television in their home.” Based on that conversation, RSU Public TV quickly began working with Sequoyah teachers and then reached out to Tulsa Public Schools Superintendent

Dr. Deborah Gist who gave the green light for TPS community organizational resources to be a part of RSU Public TV’s new @HomeLearning program, saying, “We are thrilled to partner with RSU TV to provide additional engagement opportunities for our students through the end of the school year. The live programming that will be provided by our staff and community partners will be another great way for students and families to engage in learning during this time.” On April 9th RSU Public TV and its public education partners, Sequoyah and Tulsa Public Schools and the Tulsa City County Library, launched @ HomeLearning. Every Monday through Friday from 9am to noon, students had ready access to over-the-air learning resources on RSU Public TV Channel 35.1 in order to complete the 2020 school year. Parents had access to some highquality educational content to keep their children engaged. TV Station General Manager Royal Aills said “One of the things we know is this, in times like these our mission to serve the public is paramount. Like public schools, public TV means working together for the greater good of our students, families and communities.” RSU Public TV has been providing educational programming, including telecourses, to residents of northeastern Oklahoma for 30 years. Sequoyah students and parents accessed a blended continuous learning plan with a combination of learning resources for parents, direct instruction via an online platform and RSU-TV. The Sequoyah School system is one of nine Rogers County School districts and serves 1,280 PreK-12 Students. Dr. Saul said, “The first thing that came to mind was all the parents and students who do not have unlimited access to data plans and the Internet. So, we analyzed all possible resources in our area to connect and

provide learning experiences to our students and families, which led us to RSU-TV. We know from data the vast majority of our homes have a TV and that RSU-TV is available for FREE. [We] will provide learning opportunities and experiences with an emphasis on enrichment teaching and presentations. Our goal is to keep our students engaged in learning and continue our vision of instilling the love of learning.” Aills said, “our numbers showed we had a large number of students watching our over the air broadcast as well as on our digital platforms with an average viewership over 15,000.” Sequoyah teachers included multi-grade level lessons in Reading, Math, Social Studies and Science with each lesson including enrichment opportunities. “We hope to give students the opportunity to feel as if they are in the classroom. We feel like this approach will assist parents who don’t have internet or need to use the internet at home for their own job,” Dr. Saul said. Tulsa Public School used resource partners such as: Tulsa Zoo, Tulsa STEM Alliance, YMCA, ahha: Visual Arts, Kang’s Taekwondo; Discovery Lab. The Tulsa City County Library presented, “Build a Reader Story Time” with host Librarian, Tori Hamilton, Children’s Library Associate, Glenpool Library, every Friday. At the end of May the station scaled back @ HomeLearning live broadcasts for the summer.

A smart, savvy and fearless redhead, FRANKIE DRAKE is a new detective for a new world. Raised in Toronto by her small-time grifter father, Frankie longed for adventure. After his death, she found it living abroad in Europe and the Middle East. When WWI broke out, she became a dispatch messenger, riding a motorcycle across war-torn country sides in order to deliver crucial messages to the front lines. Frankie’s skill and daring attracted the attention of her commanders who recruited her to work as a spy. Her final mission saw her return to Toronto where her cover was blown. Unemployed and looking to put her unique skill set to work, Frankie established Drake Private Detectives, the city’s first all-female detective agency. With her associate Trudy Clarke, Frankie takes on the cases the police can’t crack and more traditional detective agencies aren’t interested in — solving them as only a modern woman who “colours-outside-the-lines” can.

The Drake Private Detectives take on cases that explore every cross-section of Toronto, from gospel church choirs, bathing beauties and the early cinema scene, to the homes and private parties of the city’s elite. Frankie and Trudy’s fearless sense of adventure gets them into all kinds of trouble, but they always manage to find a way out. They are new detectives for a new world – but is the world ready for them?
