That day. We would have to find someone to talk about books with, and in the conversation between readers the vulnerable would be laid out bare--interests, tastes and themes of the moment--in the possible hope of finding a new connection with an author, title, or genre. I dreaded this, to be honest. I looked at this room of solid readers and felt like a comic with one joke at a stand-up convention; like a witch with one spell at a packed coven meeting--and what’s worse, my one spell had already been cast, perfected, and even the love of it had passed mention. How would I relate to a bona fide reader? And more to the point: what was I going to recommend? In between ses- sions, and stewing with expectations, I went to the library computer catalog and looked up the last book I’d loved, a book club pick by Adult Services Librarian Lynette Olson, and hoped that whomever I spoke to hadn’t read it yet. During the lunch break, Molly, from the Lawrence Public Library, chatted with me about the seminar she had helped lead on social media and the library. Molly began as a part-time teen assistant and now worked full-time with various aspects of the library. She wore a red lanyard around her neck, des- ignating her a readers’ advisory mentor (there were a team of them). She read across genres from graphic novels to historical fiction, and a blur of others in between. “Have you done a readers’ advisory yet?” she asked. I decided to take off the kid gloves, and tell her what I loved to read. To be continued. . . .

Monica Mader, Interim Library Director, has developed the classes in partnership with the staff of Housing and Credit Counseling, Inc. (HCCI). Mader said, “The library is very glad to receive a small grant that has let us develop these free classes to assist people in managing their finances and begin planning for the future.” Mader said “the classes are designed to appeal to people of all ages.” A schedule is posted at www.cclibraryks.org. No registration is required, but it is requested to help plan the refreshments. The first class is Thursday, May 7 from 6–7 p.m. and will focus on how to get a free credit report and dispute errors that may be in a credit report. A class scheduled Thursday, May 14 from 6–7 p.m., will give options for repaying student loans that can include consolidation, deferment and cancellation for extenuating circumstances. A special class about how reverse mortgages work for people age 62 and older will be presented Thursday, May 21 from 2–4 p.m. and will give examples of questions consumers should ask lenders when pursu- ing a reverse mortgage loan. On the same date, HCCI will also present a Homebuyer Workshop from 5:30-8 p.m., that will discuss credit-readiness, affordability, qualifying for a loan, and Fair Housing Law, as well as addressing the most common concerns most first-time homebuyers experience.

I am so proud of our community! This year we have 105 teams in our county. Actual total number of participants is 613. That is great! I am so happy that so many people have made the 8 week commitment to take some small steps to a healthier lifestyle. Why is a healthy lifestyle important? Many Kansans are at risk for chronic disease because of physical activity and nutrition choices- 37 % are overweight, and an additional 27% are obese (Lyon County’s rate is 29.7 percent rated as obese). Only 19% of Kansans eat enough fruit and vegetables, and only 48% of our population in Kansas reaches the minimum goal for physical activity (150 minutes per week). We also were ranked as county #46 out of 105 in the recent health outcomes ranking from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. We in Lyon County have a ways to go to improve our health. We all need to take small steps to become a healthier place to live, work and play. We need to make half our plate fruits and vegetables at every meal. We should all try and eat a rainbow of colors every day. Nature created fruits and vegetables in a rainbow of colors. By eating a variety of colors you can get the best allaround health benefits, including phytochemicals –natural compounds that protect against chronic disease. In their natural form, fruits and vegetables are low in calories and sodium, have very little fat, and fruits offer natural sweetness. These foods are also good sources of dietary fiber. Fruits and vegetables provide a variety of tastes and textures, and consuming different colors actually increases your protection against disease. Think about the variety of colors represented in your daily diet. It’s not enough to sip orange juice each morning, have a salad with mostly iceberg lettuce for lunch, and eat a baked potato and green beans for dinner. In most cases, the deeper the fruit or vegetable’s color, the more powerful its diseaseprotection capabilities. To eat a rainbow of colors, start by adding strawberries, blueberries or bananas to cereal; or have an omelet with spinach, mushrooms and tomatoes. Build a salad on leafy greens such as Romaine lettuce and spinach, and add at least three other vegetables. Include a variety of veggies on your sandwich, and eat carrots or an orange as a snack. For dinner, fix a baked sweet potato and broccoli. The key is to mix up your food choices and to try new vegetables. Whole-grain foods are also essential for good health. They provide energy, help promote digestive health and reduce the risk of developing a number of diseases. Whole-grain foods are more satisfying. They have great texture and taste, provide a feeling of fullness, and have staying power: You won’t feel hungry as quickly. How do you know if you are choosing a whole-grain food? Read the food label – specifically the ingredient list – to be sure. The first item listed is the ingredient highest in quantity by weight. Look for the word “whole” in front of a grain, such as “whole wheat.” If the list starts with “wheat flour,” it is not a whole grain. Common whole grains include brown rice, oatmeal, popcorn, wild rice and whole wheat. Expand your whole-grain choices with quinoa, whole-grain barley, whole-grain corn or cornmeal, whole rye and others. Quinoa (pronounced keen-wa), is a grain that comes from the Andes Mountains of South America. Quinoa’s origins are truly ancient. It was one of the three staple foods, along with corn and potatoes, of the Inca civilization. Quinoa was known then, and still is known, with respect, as the mother grain. Common serving sizes of whole-grain foods include: a slice of whole-grain bread, 2 cups of popcorn, ½ cup of cooked cereal, 1 ounce of ready-to-eat cereal, ½ cup cooked brown rice or whole-grain pasta, a small muffin or a pancake. You don’t need to choose only whole-grain foods. The dietary recommendation is to make half your grain foods whole-grain choices. Do this when baking by substituting half the recipe’s flour with whole-grain flour. Have brown rice and whole grain pasta when possible. I hope you are enjoying walking, the weather has been pretty good for us so far. We have been outside for most of the poker walks. If it is warm outside remember to take water with you, especially if you aren’t use to walking outside. There are just a few more events happening with Walk Kansas. I invite everyone to participate, even if you are not on a Walk Kansas team. Bodies in Motion April 21, 10 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. Let’s work on creating time for activity.

The presentations are open to anyone. “This partnership makes it possible for communities to benefit, grow and prosper with the increased number of professionals who fully understand the role of educational and community-based philanthropy,” said DenaSue Potestio, president/CEO of the Emporia State Foundation and vice president for university advancement. “What better way to carry out our shared missions than to partner with one another to raise up the next generation of philanthropists?” Mike Crouch, executive director of advancement for FHTC, said the college’s Foundation is proud to be a partner in providing educational opportunities for professionals in this area. “Flint Hills Technical College plays an integral role in economic development in our community, and we are excited to share that message,” Crouch said. Two sessions will be offered at the inaugural event, which will begin at 7:30 a.m. May 7 at FHTC, with a breakfast catered by the tech college chef and culinary arts students. The cost is $10 for the meal, which will be followed by introductions and opening remarks at 8 a.m. Attorneys and certified public accountants will receive continuing education credits for completing the class. Financial advisors and insurance agents also can benefit from the sessions. Anyone who wants to attend either or both sessions needs to register in advance. Registrations may be submitted by registering online at www.flinthillsphilanthropy.org. For more information, please call (620) 341-5400 or e-mail flinthillsphilanthropy@ emporia.edu. The first presentation, “Creative Charitable Planning with Non-Cash Assets,” will be from 8:20 to 10 a.m. “The first presentation will focus on non-cash types of gifts that people can give, like land or commodities, those types of things,” Antes said. “While it’s primarily for the professional advisors, it could certainly be a valuable workshop for interested parties that are considering non-cash gifts to any one of the foundations.” The second session, “Powerful Planned Giving with a Shoe-String Staff and a Shoe-String Budget,” will be from 10:30 a.m. to noon. It is intended for representatives of area non-profit organizations. Both classes will be taught by Bryan Clontz of Charitable Solutions LLC of Jacksonville, Florida. Clontz described the professional-advisor portion of the programs as a case study approach to help clients who want to donate assets that may include traditional non-cash gifts such as real estate, or unique items such as boats, race horses, art collections or beach houses. Clontz said the session for non-profit organizations will be “highly interactive,” with participants learning how to create a robust planned giving program with no money and only two to three hours per month.

You can't blame someone for seeing the word "allspice" and thinking that it is a blend of many spices _ or even all spices. It's a natural assumption. But allspice is just one spice, a dried berry from a broadleaf evergreen tree that grows primarily on the islands of the Caribbean Sea and Central America. It got its English name, according to a book published in 1736, because it tastes like "all the other spices." Usually when people today try to describe the taste, they limit the mixture of spices it resembles to cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Sometimes they also add juniper, ginger and black pepper. What this means to the home cook is that allspice can be counted on to add an extra kick to practically everything. Whatever tastes good with cinnamon, cloves or nutmeg tastes even better (or at least just as good) with allspice. And it is great in the sort of things you don't necessarily associate with cloves or cinnamon too, such as soups and stews and vegetables. The next time you make a chicken soup _ or beef soup, or tomato _ add a little allspice. Four or five berries will do for a gallon of soup, or one berry for every quart of liquid. Or if you are making a pot roast, stew or other braised dish, try three to five allspice berries for a lovely hint of the flavor of the islands.

This week’s theme is “Blue Dolphins & Whales.” Provided by Lyon County Historical Society Throughout the county there are probably places where isolated burials took place long ago. For instance, on Road F north of highway 56 where the parallel makes the road jog east, there is a single grave where a dragoon from the Civil War (or before) is buried. This grave was almost lost in history until someone discovered it and fenced it off. Another burial location is on land owned by Lloyd Brown’s sister. Here, perched on the very edge of a creek leading into the Neosho River west of Americus are three large gravestones bearing the names of people whose names are found nowhere else in Lyon County history. Perhaps they were simply passers-through who died enroute to somewhere else.

Withington’s graveyard has no markers at all, but, thanks to Don Schiesser and his son who discovered it, this graveyard appears to circle around the hill north of Old Allen on the east side of 142 Mile Creek. Mostly covered by soil these days, the graves are topped by large, flat stones. So many people traveling west along the Santa Fe Trail were exposed to a variety of diseases caused by the hardship of travel: dysentery, typhoid, cholera. They may have stopped at Withington’s while their loved one succumbed to his or her illness. He provided the final resting place, but no records have ever been found to identify who was buried there. Tuesday, April 21, 2015 FLINT HILLS SHOPPER ALLSPICE I needn't have worried. It eventually unclumped (a fair amount of stirring was involved) and became a recognizable muffin batter. They baked with no problem. And the taste? Superb. It tasted just like carrot cake, only one in which the carrots had been re- From PAGE 11 And don't forget to use it in desserts, too. Allspice is like cardamom; it is just as happy in sweet dishes as it is in savory. Cookies, cakes, oatmeal and even applesauce all perk up a bit when sprinkled with ground allspice. I decided to use it in three distinctly different ways: as part of a flavorful rub on roast chicken, in a spicy marinade inspired (and perhaps used) by the indigenous people of the Caribbean islands and in muffins made, surprisingly, with sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes? Yes, allspice also pairs well with all of your most popular orange vegetables _ carrots, squash and sweet potatoes. I made the chicken first, and I'm glad I did because as it was baking a marvelous aroma of allspice permeated the kitchen. Cumin and paprika are also major parts of this dish, but the spice that you smell is allspice. And it is sublime. The dish is wonderfully easy to make, too. You simply combine the spices (including garlic and onion powders and salt and pepper) with just enough olive oil to make a wet paste. This you rub all over the chicken _ it's fun to play with your food _ and then roast it in the oven. You don't even have to wait. With most rubs, you want to let the spices sit on the meat for a while to let the flavors permeate the food. But this dish cooks so slowly that the meat has the chance to absorb the flavor from the spices while it cooks. It only roasts at 375 degrees, rather than the 425 degrees or so usually used to cook chicken, and the chicken winds up being surprisingly tender and moist, redolent of all the good things smeared on it. The marinade I made is more old school, meaning that the meat has to soak up the flavor before it is cooked. This is especially true because I used it to make London broil and, as with other tough cuts of meat, London broil needs a good, long marination to make it tender. The great thing about this marinade is that it could be used for any kind of meat or fish. But try it with a London broil and let the meat marinate overnight. It is astonishingly good. Your family or guests will go crazy for it _ as long as they like their food spicy. A version of the recipe apparently originally comes from the Arawaks, an indigenous people of the Caribbean islands and South America. The recipe has it all: It is a little sweet (brown sugar, molasses), a little salty (soy sauce), a little spicy (cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger along with the allspice), a little aromatic (onions, shallots, garlic), a little fruity (orange juice, red wine) and perhaps more than a little hot (scotch bonnet chile peppers). I couldn't find scotch bonnets locally, so I used habaneros instead. They are closely related and pack the same amount of fierce heat, but scotch bonnets are said to taste a bit fruitier. Because of the wallop of fire that these peppers contain, I removed the seeds before chopping them. But the meat did not turn out to be as spicy as I feared because the heat was limited by the marinade. If you like it extra hot, try keeping the seeds in the sauce. Ready for dessert, I also made sweet-potato muffins. I was a little uncertain about these as I was making them because the shredded sweet potato clumped together, making the batter a bit weird. Page 13 moved and replaced with sweet potatoes. You know that carrot cake flavor. It tastes like cinnamon. And cloves. And maybe just a hint of nutmeg. ___ ROAST CHICKEN WITH CUMIN, PAPRIKA AND ALLSPICE Yield: 4 to 6 servings 1 (6 to 6 -pound) chicken 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoons ground cumin 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon onion Please see Allspice, Page 28 Saturday, May 2nd • 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. There will be Breyer horses on sale and lots of games and crafts.

For many people, including myself, spring has been a long time coming. If you are like me, you have been itching to go outside to start working in the lawn and planting flowers to spruce up your outdoor spaces. This can be a daunting task for many, so where do you start? The best thing to do is pick just one area and focus only on that to start. Many of us have a patio or deck area that is used for entertaining in our backyards and this could be the first area to focus on since this is the first thing many of your guests will see. For the purpose of this article and for the sake of space and time we will just discuss the patio and/or deck area. So we have identified that the deck and/ or patio area needs to be spruced up. Now think of this area as one of the rooms in your house. These outdoor living areas can be an extension of our indoor living areas. Once you think of the deck and/or patio area as a room of your house, it will make the decorating, also known as landscaping, easier to handle. Any plants that are planted in flower beds help form an outline and transform the area into a room by creating the illusion of walls. Now I am not saying put in some of the tallest plants you can find, you will want some shorter plants included in the landscape so you do not obstruct any views you may like to keep. Use container planters as your accent pieces (i.e., pictures, wall art, furniture pieces), like you would have in your house. Use bright colors to add interest to these accent pieces. Since the patio and/or deck is your entertaining area, make sure you include the different items you want or need to entertain your guests. Over the years as we have now turned our outdoor spaces into an extension of our inside living spaces, new terms have been created in to the landscape world. We are no longer considered landscapers, but landscape designers.

The correct sequence of steps is the key to giving any room a quick and refreshing paint makeover. Tip: Start with the ceiling first and then paint the walls. Step 1 — Clean Ceiling and Walls Remove dust, dirt, and grease spots (which can ruin a smooth finish) with water, a little mild dishwashing detergent, and a cellulose sponge. Rinse ceiling and walls with clean wa- ter to remove the soap residue. Step 2 — Cut in Around Edges Beginning at the corner of the room, use a two-inch or 2.5-inch trim brush to “cut in,” applying a three-inch strip of coating along the perimeter where the wall and the ceiling meet. Cut in a section at a time, alternating between cutting in and painting the ceiling to maintain a wet edge and prevent a visible line between the cut-in area and the rest of the ceiling. Step 3 — Rolling the Ceiling Before you begin painting the ceiling, remove excess paint on the roller by slowly rolling it back and forth over the ridges of the paint tray. Start painting near the corner of the room, blending the coating into the ceiling line painted previously. Paint across the width of the ceiling, rather than the length, and make sure to roll in a motion across your body, rather than along your body, to avoid straining your neck and back. Step 4 — Painting the Walls Once your ceiling is dry, return to the spot where you began painting. Use a trim brush to carefully cut in along the wall-ceiling line. Extend out two to three inches from windows, doors, and moldings. Once you’ve cut in around an entire wall area, use a roller to fill in the field. For efficiency, start in the corner of a wall and roll on a three-by-threefoot W pattern, then fill it in without lifting the roller. Continue in sections until you’re finished. Paint one wall at a time. Step 5 — Painting the Trim Once the walls are completely dry, place painter’s blue tape where the trim meets the wall. Paint the moldings, baseboard and the door and window frames with a two-inch angled brush. When painting your trim, paint the tops of the doors and windows first and work your way down so that you can remove any runs as you go. Paint your baseboards last. Carmen Y.

It is marked on the bottom with either an "N" or a "Z" in a circle. Can you provide some information on this piece? It is in perfect condition and has one pattern on the inside and another on the outside. Thank you, B. F. J., Naples, Fla. FLINT HILLS SHOPPER Treasures Dear B. J. F., Both of us hate looking up carnival glass patterns because it can be a long and tedious task. After spending about an hour looking through books on the subject, a friend walked up, saw the photo and said, "Oh, that pattern is wishbone with a basketweave exterior." We could have clobbered him for being such a smarty pants _ but since wishbone is almost the last pattern in the books, we were happy for the heads-up. Starting about 1905, carnival glass was made by a number of companies, and it continues to be produced right up to the present day. Carnival glass is an iridescent pressed glass _ i.e. not hand-blown _ that comes in a variety of colors such as marigold, blue, amethyst, green, white, red, smoke and many others. Carnival glass started out being cheap _ so cheap that it was given away as prizes and premiums at such venues as movie theaters and yes, Page 19 carnivals. We believe there is so much of this type of glass out there that it must have been sold in outlets such as the ubiquitous 5 and Dime as well. Today, carnival glass is not quite as collectible as it once was, but rare pieces can still bring prices at auction in the low thousands. Value generally depends on three factors _ rarity of the pattern, rarity of the form (plates and whimsy Please see Treasure, Page 20 AUCTIONEER’S NOTE: The Walk In Peace Ranch has been used for family getaways, business, group or personal retreats.

Recipe from Bon Appetit SWEET-POTATO MUFFINS Yield: 15 servings 2 eggs 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar 1 cup canola oil 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 2 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg 1 teaspoon ground allspice 1 teaspoon salt 4 cups peeled, shredded sweet potatoes (about 2 large) 1 cup raisins 1 cup chopped walnuts 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease muf- fin tins to hold about 15 muffins. 2. Crack eggs into a small bowl and beat well. Add brown sugar, oil and vanilla, and whisk together until smooth. 3. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, salt and grated sweet potato. Make a well in the center and pour in the egg mixture. Stir the egg mixture, gradually incorporating it into the sweet potato mixture. Stir in the raisins and walnuts. 4. Spoon the batter into the muffin tins; filling them to the rim will result in large caps. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Use a paring knife around the edges of each muffin, if needed, to help pop them out of the tin. Best when served immediately.

Recipe from allrecipes. com Arawak Marinade Yield: About 2 cups 6 green onions, chopped 3 tablespoons minced shallots Tuesday, April 21, 2015 2 cloves garlic, minced 1 teaspoon ground ginger 1 tablespoon ground allspice 1 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon brown sugar 1 cup fresh orange juice 1 cup cider vinegar 1 cup red wine 1 cup soy sauce 1 cup vegetable oil 1 tablespoon molasses 2 scotch bonnet chile peppers, see note Note: Scotch bonnet peppers are closely related to habaneros, which you can substitute if you cannot find the scotch bonnet. Both are among the hottest peppers in the world, so be very careful. 1. In a medium bowl, combine the green onions, shallots, garlic, ginger, allspice, ground black pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, brown sugar, orange juice, vinegar, wine, soy sauce, oil and molasses. 2. Chop the peppers and add to the mixture. If you want it a little less hot, remove the seeds before chopping. Wash your hands thoroughly, then wash the knife and the cutting board. 3. Mix well, cover, and allow to sit for 1 hour. Stir again before using to marinate fish or meat. Marinate fish at least 30 minutes, chicken or pork at least 1 to 2 hours, or beef (such as for London broil) at least 4 to 6 hours or overnight. Discard marinade after use.
