A NEW YEAR, A NEW SAVANNAH The new year’s resolution: a commitment to one’s self for making a change for the better. Lose weight, spend more time with my family, be more of something, take less of something... a reflection of the hopes and dreams of that particular person. But what if we took that same commitment and switched the view outward, taking a closer look at our own city? What if we had the same control over the future of our city, that we do over our own lives? While no new year’s resolution is ever easy or arguably ever rarely comes to fruition, the truth is that we actually DO have the power to tranform our city (and it’s quite possibly, even easier than accomplishing your own personal resolution.) This year we are asking our readers, as part of a city-wide collaborative effort in conjuction with Emergent Savannah,

“What do you love about Savannah?”
writing
“What do you dream for Savannah?” Those two simple questions could very well be the beginning of a larger conversation that ultimately may help to steer the very future of this city and inform its citizens and politicians as to what we care about and what we would like our city to achieve. It’s intentional community building, it’s democracy, it’s just two simple questions... If you read one thing in this issue, turn to page 11 and take just a few minutes to ask these questions of yourself. Regardless of what you do with the answers, whether you share them with the public or keep them to yourself, think of it as a new year’s resolution that we all can work towards.

Emergent Savannah is a collaboration of local activists who believe that Savannah is capable of evolving into a more intentional community, empowered to create its own future, while continuing to honor its past. But we can’t do this alone. We are inviting YOU to be part of creating the Savannah that works for everyone. Turn the page to take part now. WELL F ED COMMUNITY | 11
What do you LOVE about Savannah? Well FED is honored to take part in fostering this positive and important conversation throughout Savannah. Here’s how we hope you will jump in and be part of Emergent Savannah: We are asking you to spend a few minutes thinking about two simple questions and share your thoughts. We will be spending the months of January, February and March, inviting people to share their thoughts and asking them to invite people they know to share their thoughts as well. This will lead to the creation of a citizen based positive vision for Savannah during the month of April, when an even wider community conversation begins. So we ask, what do you want for your Emergent Savannah? What do you love about Savannah? What do you dream for Savannah? Most importantly, how are you going to be a part of it?
“The Beloved Community is not a utopia, but a place where the barriers between people gradually come down and where citizens make a constant effort to address even the most difficult problems of ordinary people. It is above all, an idealistic community.” – Rev. Jim Lawson
What do you DREAM for Savannah? Here are several ways your LOVE and DREAM can become part of a community-wide conversation: • Share your thoughts on our website EmergentSavannah.org and invite your friends, classmates, co-workers, to also share their thoughts. • Leave a comment on our Facebook page: facebook.com/emergentsavannah like the page and share your comments with everyone you know. • Email your love and dream to: info@emergentsavannah.com You can also email us for cards to handout or let us know how you can help spread these questions to even more people. • Turn to the back of the next page and write your thoughts directly on to the page. You can tear it out and put it up anywhere you like: a public bulletin board, your bathroom mirror, give it to a friend or complete stranger, or you can even leave it right in the magazine and leave it for someone else to discover. • Come to the Sentient Bean Coffee Shop at 13 E Park Avenue, where you can participate in a public installation and use the materials provided there, to write/draw your LOVE/DREAM’s for Savannah. This collaborative project will be open to the public throughout the month of January. Turn the page to share your thoughts now.

Fewer Baths for Baby
May Contribute to Better Skin Health by Corinne M. Howington, MD Low Country Dermatology
Do you bathe your baby every day? If so, you may be putting your child at risk for a long-term skin disease called atopic dermatitis. “Atopic” refers to a tendency to develop allergy conditions. “Dermatitis” means swelling of the skin. Children who develop atopic dermatitis, also sometimes called eczema, usually do so during their first year of life. It causes itchy skin that is red, warm and tender, often on the scalp, forehead and face. While there are treatments that can help, recent studies suggest that atopic dermatitis can be avoided altogether with simple steps.
18 | W E L L F E D FAMI LY
I generally recommend to my patients that babies should be bathed no more than three times a week. Furthermore, I encourage parents to be aware of what is in the baby wash and shampoo and make sure their baby’s skin is properly moisturized by applying a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic moisturizing lotion immediately after the bath to help keep the skin from drying out. Research recently published in The Wall Street Journal (11/4, D3, Linden, Subscription Publication) suggests that atopic dermatitis in infants can be prevented with proper skin care and perhaps fewer baths, no more than three a week. Similar recommendations have been published by The American Academy of Pediatrics on its website.
Parents should consider these tips to help reduce the risk of atopic dermatitis in infants: • For the first year, give baths no more than two or three times a week to avoid drying out the baby’s skin. • Apply moisturizer liberally immediately after the bath. Putting it on when the skin is still moist will seal in the water. • Thicker or oily moisturizing products are better at keeping the skin moist.
Environmental factors such pollutants and indoor heating can also disrupt the infant’s skin’s ability to keep moisture in and allergens and microbes out. The condition usually occurs before the age of 18 months, when a baby’s skin is still developing. It can be very uncomfortable and may come and go for months or years. If not treated properly, the condition could lead to skin infections. While I strive to focus on prevention, if the condition develops, I can help parents learn how to take care of their baby’s affected skin and recommend safe and effective treatments to relieve much of the discomfort of atopic dermatitis. ABOUT LOW COUNTRY DERMATOLOGY Low Country Dermatology specializes in the treatment of adult and pediatric diseases of the skin, hair and nails. Dr. Corinne Howington is a board certified dermatologist, with expertise in medical, surgical and cosmetic dermatology. Low Country Dermatology is located at 310 Eisenhower Dr. Suite 12A Savannah, GA 31406. For more information, visit lcderm.com
• Use mild, non-soap cleansers designed for a baby’s skin. Fragrance-free is best. Even herbal ingredients can be irritating to the skin. • Consider products with the National Eczema Association’s seal of acceptance. These don’t contain ingredients that are known irritants to sensitive skin.

LESSONS ON
FOOD JUSTICE & FARMING by Rhonda Barlow, MPH, RD, LD, CLC Nutrition Coordinator
F
ood Justice – such a big concept for young students to fully understand; it’s a big concept even for some adults to wrap their brain around. The term is a constant buzz phrase when conversations turn to “urban gardening” and it is a consistent part of the conversations the Charles Ellis Montessori Academy middle school students are having lately. The Montessori curriculum uses a framework divided into several areas of learning. Three of these areas, practical life skills, sensorial learning, and cultural studies, are perfect avenues for students to learn about food justice and urban gardening. This past semester, the middle-school teacher, Christopher Schell, challenged his students to conduct research on the three main food justice themes of food security, food access, and food systems. The students learned about genetically modified organism (GMOs), the Ogeechee River pollution incident, and how food processing affects the nutrient value of food. Once they learned these lessons, the students taught them to their younger schoolmates at Charles Ellis Montessori Academy and presented their various food justice/school garden projects at the Chatham Farm to School Workshop and the Forsyth Farmers Market. The students were guided in developing a lesson on the value of eating a “whole” food versus eating “parts” of food. Three teams of eighth graders taught this lesson to all the classes at the school as a Food Day celebration activity.
As a part of learning about food justice, Charles Henry, a farmer with the Coastal Georgia Small Farmers Cooperative, Inc., paid a visit to the school and talked to the students about working as a farmer and why it is important for people to buy their food from local farmers as much as possible. Because the Coastal Georgia Small Farmers Cooperative, Inc. supplies fresh collard greens for the Chatham School Nutrition Program, Mr. Charles was able to help the students make the connection between the collard greens on their lunch trays and the farmer who grew the greens. The students also held a paper goods drive to benefit the Emmaus House. The Emmaus House serves breakfast and lunch daily to help eliminate the number of people in Savannah experiencing food insecurity. If you would like to assist the students at Charles Ellis Montessori Academy with their school garden or with their food justice projects, you can contact Christopher Schell at 912-395-5470.

A Sweet Ray of Southern Sunshine on Savannah's Southside Article and photos by Cheryl Baisden Solis Family traditions. Red, ripe tomatoes and summer squash straight from the backyard garden. Busy afternoons spent baking cakes and cookies. Searching the nearby wood for baskets of juicy blackberries. Family gathered ‘round grandma’s table for lovingly prepared Sunday feasts. Those memories are the ultimate source of inspiration for Lisa Moore and her wonderful new bakery, opened November 7th on Eisenhower Drive. “I named the bakery for my grandmother, Mattie Belle Craig,” she tells me, and points to the photo in the corner behind the counter. “I learned to love food and baking from my grandmother. She was the kind of Southern lady who had the family over for Sunday dinner. The dishes were simple but so good! She had her own garden; she canned and pickled fresh fruits and vegetables every year; had her own plum and peach trees too.” Mattie Belle’s sweet smile looks out over her granddaughter’s bakery and the memory of those cherished childhood days brings a glow to Lisa’s cheek, a little sparkle to her eyes. “I have my own garden too now, though not as huge as grandma’s!” Being part of a family who valued fresh and locally grown foods, who loved to bake and experiment in the kitchen is a definite plus when deciding to open a bakery. Mattie Belle’s treasures developed from those passed down from grandmother to mother and given a personal flair, a fanciful twist by granddaughter Lisa, as in the luscious Salted Caramel Mousse, which developed from the original recipe made with Dark Chocolate. Even a customer can make a contribution!
“I have a regular customer who loves cookies and came in to ask if we had old-fashioned sugar cookies, the crunchy kind. She had such wonderful memories from her childhood in New York, of this little bakery that sold a big sugar cookie in a softly rounded square shape, sprinkled with sugar. She’d experimented for ages and finally got the recipe just right, but really didn’t have time to bake. She asked me if I would make it for her, and, of course, I obliged. Now they’ve become so popular they always sell out early in the day!” I like that kind of openness, that valuable ability to blend tradition and outside sources into a unique product. Lisa has her own special gift to share, like the very welcomed hand-crafted éclairs made of French pot de choux pastry mixed with real butter. This versatile dough is soft and easily piped into shape, then stuffed with a rich filling created from Southern Swiss Dairy’s all natural cream. “My éclairs—everything here, in fact—are made from scratch. I especially love using Waynesboro, GA’s Southern Swiss Dairy’s products because they aren’t homogenized so they retain such a thick creaminess. Their milk is hormone-free and tastes so good! I use their buttermilk in my scones. It’s the stuff we remember from our childhood: almost like yogurt, no fake butter-chunks floating in it, and full fat! Would you like to try some?” Nobody has to ask me twice! The scent and flavor were wonderful! Lisa’s éclairs come in a variety of flavors that change every week. Those buttermilk scones have become local breakfast treats for business folks on the go, especially the incredibly good bacon-cheddar scones, pairing superbly with a hot cup of PERC Coffee. “I frequent the weekend farmer’s market and my husband and I met Philip, who got us interested in his coffee; I thought, how perfect to offer this great coffee with my baked goods!” Another fantastic pairing is a dark roast PERC coffee with the Chocolate Peanut Butter Squares—since I’m such a peanut butter fan, I took some home, along with the beautiful rice pudding and other treats. My daughter and I halved a square, and when she took a bite of the dense, sweet, heavenly bar, her eyes popped open wide, “WOW!” she whispered, shaking her head, “This is IN-credible! So rich! I love the little crispy bits in the bar, and the chocolate! I want the other half!” The rice pudding is made with Crème Anglaise in the French style, without cinnamon, but flavored with real vanilla bean—you could see the little flecks all through it—and the Arborio rice gives it a distinctive creaminess; the topping was pure whipped cream. -Continued on Next Page
“My éclairs— everything here, in fact—are made from scratch.”
The salted caramel mousse has a smooth, thick texture that slides over the tongue so easily you can’t imagine you’ve eaten a whole serving so quickly! The real whipped cream crown adds beautifully to the presentation and the flavor. Coffee lovers should check out Lisa’s biscotti. Crunchy and flavorful, they are perfect for dipping in a cup of coffee for breakfast or an afternoon snack—try the Pepper-Hazelnut for a different and special treat. The Orange Almond Buttons are almost like a macaron, crispy on the outside, soft and delicately chewy on the inside and subtly flavored; the thin almond slices on top make them an exquisite and lovely dessert for lunch or dinner. Lisa’s Hot Ham Cheese Pockets are ready for the lunch crowd, as well as the Bacon-Cheddar Scones, and new Pockets & Panini are already planned for the new year.
“I learned to love food and baking from my grandmother.”
The holidays seem to bring out the best in a good baker, and ‘Mattie Belle’s’ has a fine selection to choose from. Lisa’s gingerbread is made with fresh ginger, and her Snickerdoodles, taken from her mother’s well-loved recipe and based on a rolled refrigerator cookie dough, as well as her Apple Bourbon Cake, are already favorites with hostesses around town. Those seeking gluten-free treats may ask for the Chocolate Rye Cookie - chewy, dense, and delicious, with an earthy flavor that is very suitable with a cup of hot tea. Mattie Belle Craig would be proud, I’m sure, to see the wonderful work her granddaughter has put into this new little bakery, making small-batch, hand-crafted treats that continue the family tradition of fine baking with natural, fresh ingredients. Lisa Moore’s carefully crafted cakes, cookies, scones, biscotti and puddings are a joy for those who appreciate that the best quality can’t always found in big chain stores, but made with love and attention by a daughter of the South, following in the footsteps of her grandmother’s tradition.
Mattie Belle’s Bakery is open M-Sa, from 7am-5pm. Get your day started with a hot cup of PERC coffee and a fresh baked good for breakfast or check out their variety of sweet treats. 1000 Eisenhower Drive, Suite J (corner of Eisenhower & Water’s Ave, in the shopping center behind the gas station)

The Seasonal Chef Recipes by Savannah’s Top Chefs using Local & Seasonal Ingredients
DEEP DISH
Oysters Rockefeller CASSEROLE
“I grew up in a casserole generation- and especially when you are hung-over, you love casserole.” Sage wisdom from Bar Food and Coffee Deli owner Johnny Baker. Timely too, now that the hoopla and excess of the holidays are gone and all that’s left is a mean headache and guilt-fueled promise to actually follow out those New Year’s resolutions. Baker has been cooking in Savannah since as long as I can remember. As a kid, I spent many a night in a kitchen with him and my mom as they swapped stories, prepared food, and maybe had a libation or six. For Baker, before Bar Food there was Queenies to Go-Go, and before that, there was catering and New Orleans kitchen learnin’. His approach to cooking has always been about using what’s there, a deeply-ingrained southern habit that comes out of necessity, as well as the enduring influence of grandmothers who made it their own habit. We might as well call it part of the bloodline. “I spent a lot of time with my grandmother who was single,” says Baker. “Her whole day consisted of getting the next meal ready. We would empty crab traps, throw the cast net off the dock and pick something out the yard. I remember going with her to the Bargain Corner, which is now The Inn on Ellis Square, and loading up big bags of rice, potatoes, flour, sugar. She would get lard in these tubs and would make the most orgasmic biscuits you had in your entire life. Butter was expensive you see - but lard was cheap and delicious!” 26 | W EL L F ED R ECI P ES
Introduction by Coco Papy Photo by Chris Kubick Recipe Courtesy of Johnny Baker, Owner of Bar Food & Coffee Deli Lard might raise a few eyebrows in a town that’s moving away from it’s heavy cooking past and into the realm of quinoa and organic produce, but Baker still makes the best case for using it. “ With lard, you could get that nice feeling of it on your teeth.” While Baker’s background remains in the flavors of the Low Country, these days, his passion currently resides more with Bar Food’s French and Asian flavor. “All my life I’ve been cooking the damn soul food. When we opened Bar Food, I thought, I’m going to cook something I really like.” But it’s hard to stray too far from your roots, especially when those roots are easy, delicious, and still vied for.
Such is the case for this month’s recipe, Oysters Rockefeller. It has the sound of fancy cocktail parties and heavy budgets, but Baker swears by the recipe. “ When I do catering, people say, ‘I love Oysters Rockefeller’ but they think it’s too much or too expensive. The trick is to use really big select oysters. You wont fix it for yourself for everyday, but as a special dish, it’s easy. Just dump it in a food processor, then a deep dish, and there you go.”
INGREDIENTS 3 sticks butter 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1 2/3 cups chopped green onions 1 cup chopped celery 1 large clove garlic, pressed 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce 1 teaspoon anchovy paste 1 ½ cup seasoned bread crumbs 8 cups oysters, drained, liquid reserved ¾ cup chopped parsley ½ cup Parmesan cheese 2 tablespoons Herbsaint liqueur (Herbsaint can be harder to find in Savannah, but an anise flavored liqueur will do as well) 3 ten ounce packages of frozen and chopped spinach, cooked and drained ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon each black and cayenne pepper
DIRECTIONS Melt butter in a large skillet. Add thyme, green onions, celery, and garlic. Saute for 5 minutes. Add Worcestershire sauce, anchovy paste, and bread crumbs. Cook and stir for 5 minutes or until bread crumbs are toasted. Fold in oysters, ½ cup oyster liquid, parsley, cheese, and liqueur. Cook 3 minutes or until oysters curl. Add spinach and season with salt and peppers. Place in a 3-quart casserole dish and bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Serve in casserole dish or as an appetizer in individual ramekins.

NEWS
NOW OPEN: LIBERTY STREET GRILL The folks behind the recently closed french restaurant, Brasserie 529, have quickly reopened the building with a new concept that is distincly more “Savannahian” while maintaining some of the french influences that its regulars came to love.The menu reads like a love letter from the France to Savannah: Chicken-fried Sweetbreads, Seared Foie with Jalepeno Cornbread, Delmonico Steak seared in duckfat... Now you can order your duck confit before digging into a burger and fries. While the interior is not all too dissimilar from its previous french design, there are some light touches that lend to the more casual atmosphere that echos that of the menu. We see them filling a spot that falls somewhere in between Green Truck Pub and Circa 1875. While we didn’t know there even was a spot there to be filled, it is a place that can easily fall into any couples’ regular dining spot - somewhere you don’t have to get dressed up, but also not feel like a square surrounded by hipsters either.You can eat your steak while listening to nineties rock, which speaks not only to demographic that will easily find a home there, but reveals a bit about the age of the owners as well.
GOURMET ISLAND PUB: 80 EAST GASTRO PUB Dining on the islands continues to evolve, following the ever growing (and welcome) trend of more “sophisticated” bar dining experiences. We’re talking craft beer and burgers, handcut fries, pork belly, arugula and aiolis. It reminds us of how gastropubs got started in the first place: a response to the lackluster food that was typically served in English pubs, the introduction of gourmet bar food reinvigorated the pub culture in the British Isles and is set to do the same here on ours. Who better suited to foster the concept on The Isands, than three friends and business partners from the ever-popular Tybee staple, The Sundae Cafe.
So whether you are still into Nirvana or not, duckfat never goes out style, and Southern inspired cuisine by a classically trained French chef will always be something we can all agree on.
Located on Highway 80 of course, next to Chu’s gas station in the old TwoPirates Tavern, you can’t miss it. (And shouldn’t)
