5 Ways to Tell Ahead of Time If You’re Selecting the Right Landscaper. 1. Will they complete the job within budget? Marders gives you a firm cost, not a +/-10% or so guesstimate.
2. Will they complete the job on time? Our crews are on our payroll and are trained by us. They remain on your site until the job is finished.
3. Do they provide a written guarantee? Marders gives you a 2-year written guarantee which we’ve stood behind for some 30 years.
4. Will they get all necessary permits, apply for variances, appear before Town or Village Zoning Boards, etc.? Do they know local regulations?
5. Will you have to settle for cookie-cutter designs? Most landscapers have a limited variety of trees to sell you. The result is cookie-cutter landscaping. About half of our multi-million dollar inventory is big and/or Photograph by Douglas Young

The East End has lost a literary lion. Peter Matthiessen, renowned author, founder of The Paris Review and longtime Sagaponack resident, passed away last Saturday. Matthiessen is the only writer to win the National Book Award in both fiction and nonfiction, for Shadow Country and The Snow Leopard respectively. A new novel, In Paradise, was just released. He was 86. Read more on page 24.

On the big screen: Bridgehampton resident Madonna has signed on to direct a film adaptation of Adé: A Love Story, a 2013 novel by Rebecca Walker. The story follows a traveling Yale student who falls in love with a Swahili Muslim man. Springs metal artist Madonna James DeMartis’s appearances as a blacksmith in the new film Noah are brief but memorable. Unfortunately, audiences don’t get a look at the long mane he grew for the role—he appears in a helmet throughout.

Luckily, police had an explanation. It seems a recent cull left North Haven with a dangerously low number of deer, threatening the deer’s ability to decimate gardens and putting at risk the deer’s ability to carry out their traditional duty of “running out into the road when drivers least expect it, with a surprise partner that follows at an unpredictable time.” In recent years, the North Haven deer have also taken on the responsibility of supporting billions of ticks, and the deer’s lower numbers alarmed those concerned with the livelihood of that beloved parasite. Officials were notified, and luckily Shelter Island’s deer, with numbers to spare, were happy to lend a substantial portion of their herd. The Great North Haven Deerlift (note: no deer were actually lifted— they all swam across Shelter Island Sound) commenced on Saturday at 1 a.m., and by dawn North Haven was back to normal. The Wild West Comes East Police were called to Bay Street Theatre on Saturday night with reports that a “big crowd” had gathered there and that people were “getting rowdy and hotted up.” When they arrived, they found the reports to be true—some people were even wearing cowboy hats—but before they could ask any questions, a world-class night of Americana music had started up, and the situation was out of control. It was the “Way Out East” concert featuring Nancy Atlas, Caroline Doctorow, and Inda Eaton—sponsored by those varmints at Dan’s Papers! Read more Police Blotter at DansPapers.com.

“Along with the New York Subway System, Hamptons Subway is the only underground transit system in the State of New York.”
The H amptons Subway Newsletter By DAn rattiner
Week of April 11–17, 2014 Riders this past week: 8,412 Rider miles this past week: 96,174 DOWN IN THE TUBE Police Commissioner William Bratton was seen chatting with Hamptons Subway Police Commissioner Harry Barnstable on the Quogue platform last Tuesday. Wall Street’s Ken Lipper was seen on the subway on Friday heading for Georgica from Amagansett. RIDERSHIP OFF The downturn in ridership on the subway is, we believe, due to the outbreak of spring. Many people think of being out of doors. To counteract this, our new marketing director Henry Hassenhouse, recently of the DEC, where he famously wrote the “Shoot the Mute Swans” promotion we have all seen on TV, is planning three new promotions. The first is Scotsman Todd McKinley’s Moss from Around the World Exhibit. McKinley will be on each of our platforms during the next two
weeks, showing off his moss from such places as the Fiji Islands, Greenland, the Bering Strait and Siberia. He will also be unveiling his new mildew collection. All this is free of charge to passing straphangers. The Pink Spot Tanning Bed Company will be offering half-hour tanning sessions on our Montauk, East Hampton, Southampton and Westhampton Beach platforms all summer long. The motto for their new Hamptons Subway booths is “Be late for where you’re going, but look good. Why not?” The bikini bathing suit fashion show will take place on May 1 on the Southampton platform beginning at noon. Designers from all over are exhibiting their wares. LETTER TO THE DIGGERS Here is a message to those folks in Mecox who have dug a beautiful station adjacent to the subway line there in hopes we will break through a wall and make it a stop. This is no way to go about it. Please send us a petition that we can take to the authorities and we will lobby to be allowed to do this.
April 11, 2014 Page 13 BIRTHDAY Audra Frank-Minnow, our illustrious dispatcher assistant, turns 34 Tuesday and we are holding a birthday party for her in the company cafeteria. Frank-Minnow was, as you probably know, acquitted of all charges of murdering her first two husbands. A key witness was her third husband, most say. See you there. No presents please, she says. SPUR LINES TO MAIN BEACH AND COOPERS BEACH OPEN FRIDAY Why wait in line to park at the beach? What if you don’t have a permit? Take the subway from Jobs Lane to Coopers or from Newtown Lane to Main Beach and leave the driving to us. Beach balls, surfboards, sandals welcome. Please wash sand off at the beach platform hoses at the end of the day. LAWSUITS Anyone wishing to sue Hamptons Subway for any reason should contact attorney Frank Abernathline of Amagansett, who is offering a 50% discount for plaintiffs using his service until the end of this year. Abernathline is very feared by our legal representatives at Hamptons Subway, and I guess that is as good a recommendation as anyone could give. He once won a lawsuit because we spelled his name wrong. COMMISSIONER ASPINALL’S MESSAGE Welcome to the spring season at Hamptons Subway. The mold has been removed. The last stubborn snowdrift on the tracks between Amagansett and East Hampton is gone. Enjoy.

Spring Breaks Winter Strikes One Last Time and Then Calls It a Day
O
n the last day of March, winter took its final shot at the Hamptons. It dumped two slushy inches of snow on Long Island, slowing traffic and sending a chill through everyone at the possibility that this worst of all winter seasons was not quite over. But then it gave way to temperatures above freezing and the snow soon faded away. It had done its best, this horrible winter, but now the earth was more and more tipped toward the sun and warm weather was pressing. So this was a final growl, and thus winter gave up to this lovely spring. The next day, the first day of April, the coats and scarves and mufflers came off. Light jackets came out of the back of the closet. It was OVER! And so, that morning, with a skip in my step and a sparkle in my eye, I headed out to visit my longtime friend Scotty O’Brien, the chief of the Weather Center deep in the woods north of Water Mill. This is that factory where for the last hundred years, ever since tourists began coming to the East End, modern science techniques have been used to bring good weather to this community in every season— spring, summer and fall. Scotty met me at the door and took me up the
stairs to the mezzanine balcony so we could stroll along the runway there and look down, as we often have in the past, at the workmen busy on the factory floor below, working hard to keep bad weather at bay. “Quite a change from how it used to be, eh?” Scotty said. “Certainly is,” I said. In years past, sweaty workmen shoveled heavy loads of coal into the hundred or so furnaces all lined up down there to create the kind of heat that could impact the immediate atmosphere above this wonderful paradise. Bad weather would arrive, hit the heat, push through or bounce off. It sometimes worked, sometimes not. Now the smoke and grime were gone, and there were rows of men and women in smart white uniforms, sitting in chairs, facing more than 100 computers. “It’s all about the internet today,” Scotty said. “The internet and lasers. But you know, with global warming these days—there was no global warming and crazy up-and-down weather when you and I started—we need much more power to do the job.” “Explain that last slushy snowstorm.” “Oh, it caught us completely by surprise. Who the hell knew? The alarms went off, and everyone rushed to their stations. Thing is,

we’d thought it all over that day, and the whole team was out in the back having a company picnic when the flakes began to fall. We got to our seats, fired everything up, but we were playing catch-up. It took several hours to get up to full power.” “Well, you nipped it out,” I said. “Yeah. Finally.” “So in the old days, you could send varying levels of heat up into the atmosphere to fend off bad weather. Tell our readers how it is done today.” “It’s the same idea. But we have much more extreme heat. So we use lasers. Big ones and small ones. All dangerous. We have to be really careful.” “Hard to imagine something more dangerous than the heat from those furnaces.” “It’s more dangerous by a factor of fifty. One slip and you lose an arm or a leg. Just like that. And I’m sure you know it’s happened.” “Do you still use the cloud-seeding chemicals?” “No. Those chemicals are in the past. The old chemical mines are mostly played out. And those that are still operational, well, you have to dig deeper and deeper. It’s prohibitively expensive. Not to say disturbing to the environment.” “To say the least.” “It’s also prohibited.

Spring (Continued from previous page) There’s federal laws against it. Some of the clouds today hold computer data. If we seeded those and stuff leaked out, it could be a danger to national security. There’s severe penalties for cloud-seeding. Our job now is to avoid clouds. We do our best work in clear skies to get to the atmosphere above the clouds. The lasers, carefully calibrated, alter the molecular structure of the stratosphere, and it’s all done by those computers. They monitor the incoming weather. They analyze, titrate, tell us what settings to use. We have to vary forces and the intensities. It’s all in the mathematics.” “Wow.” “All our people are highly trained.” “I can imagine.” “Remember the hurricane we had in the early 1980s?” “Who could forget it.” “What was its name?” “Belle, I think.” “Headed right for us on Labor Day weekend. We shoveled nearly a hundred tons of coal, and that storm changed course three degrees to the east and slipped out to sea without causing any damage.” “Yeah.” “Sandy we had a year and a half ago, was a hundred times more powerful. Honestly, I don’t think we budged it more than a quarter of a degree. Huge failure. We gave it our all, though. We used up hundreds of lasers. Some of them melted.” “I heard about it. Didn’t people die here at the lab?”
“We have discovered a substance that, when sprinkled into the atmosphere, lowers the carbon levels. We’ve tried it here...” “We have a memorial to them in the lobby. It will stay there forever. We will never forget those 11 computer technicians.” “I couldn’t help noticing that out at the entryway to the facility, you have the American flag on one side and the Russian flag on the other.” “Yeah. I want to tell you about it.” “Go ahead.” “This is a big secret, so don’t tell anybody.” “I won’t.” “We have discovered a substance that, when sprinkled into the atmosphere, lowers the carbon levels. We’ve tried it over the East End. I mean, that’s our beat, right? It lowered the carbon levels by five points during just this past week between Montauk and Brookhaven.” “This is something new?” “Brand new. And it works.” “Wow. That’s astonishing. This could have international consequences.” “Maybe yes, maybe no. It’s experimental.” “But what’s this got to do with the flags out front?” “We’re an American lab. But this first batch we sent up, we sent it up to the space station
on a Russian rocket. Had to. Since the shuttle program ended, the Russians have to take stuff up. So we’ve got a Russian flag out front. Whatever else happens, the Water Mill Weather Lab is a good friend of the Russian people, is what we are saying, if you will pardon me.” “So what is this stuff you send up?” “Well, we don’t know yet if it will work on a large scale. But the day after the Sochi Olympics, we had it sprinkled over Shelter Island as the space station glided over. And it worked.” “What worked?” “Promise you won’t tell anybody?” “Promise.” “Broccoli. Dried broccoli. Has to be dried and crushed into powder within five days of harvest.” “It’s put in bottles?” “Barrels. Look what happened from Shelter Island on out. Calmed down the whole area after that final winter blow. Now it’s sunshine and springtime weather out here.” “This could save mankind.” “If there’s enough broccoli.” “What do you think?” “Don’t know.” We were at the end of the mezzanine runway. There’s a bar at the end, for the executive staff, which has its offices at that far end. “Care for a drink?” Scotty asked. “Long Island Iced Tea?” “Great idea,” I said.

William Floyd High School senior Kwasi Enin was accepted into all eight Ivy League schools, as well as into Duke, SUNY Geneseo, Stony Brook and Binghamton.
Kwasi Enin
Hard Work, Discipline, Focus, a Goal and a Pledge to Do Your Very Best By Dan Rattiner
H
ere’s an interesting story. A 17-year-old senior in high school named Kwasi Enin, the son of a mother and father who emigrated from Ghana, was accepted at Stony Brook University last week as a freshman in September. Kwasi is from Shirley, Long Island, one of the blue-collar towns that border the Hamptons just to the west, from which many landscapers, pool maintenance people and building tradesmen come here in the long line of trucks and vans called the “trade parade” at 8 a.m. every workday morning. Kwasi’s parents both work as nurses. They provided a stable, disciplined home for their son. And their boy is a straight-A student at William Floyd High School, whose sports teams sometimes play against Southampton or East Hampton high school in season. What’s interesting about this lad, however, is that he was accepted to study not only at Stony Brook. He also was accepted to all eight Ivy League schools, a very rare thing. He has a choice of Brown, Yale, Columbia, Cornell, Princeton, Penn, Harvard or Dartmouth. Kwasi Enin has been front-page news in both Newsday and the New York Post for this incredible feat, and he says it was all because of how he was raised. His parents, he said, were “helicopter parents,” that is to say, they monitored him at every turn. “They said, ‘You have a mind, and you can
do it. Always do your best,’” he told the Post. “They taught me 95 percent isn’t good enough. I’m proud, honored, appreciative.” His father had this to say. “I say, ‘You have all the resources in the world. Whatever you need, you have it here. You don’t know how lucky you are to be in America. You have no idea how blessed you are. I’m telling you.’” It wasn’t so long ago that many people reading this would be applauding how this young man was raised. Today, however, some would say he must have psychological problems from being driven so much. But that tells you more about other people than it does about Kwasi. And it doesn’t jibe with what his fellow students think of him. His parents pushed him. He loved it. Marcus Mingo, 16, to the New York Post: “He’s cool and he’s blessed. He’s definitely a hard worker. He was always in class earlier than everyone else. He’s kind and considerate, the kind of person that everyone likes.” Devin Robinson, 15, to the New York Post: “He’s really ambitious. He inspires people because he makes you think you can do whatever you want to do. It makes me want to work a lot harder and get into a good school.” Kwasi is on the track team—he competes in shot put—plays viola and sings in the school orchestra, and is also in the choir at church. In addition, he volunteers at Stony Brook Hospital. “He plays a little video games with his friends, to relax,” he dad says. “He does it for maybe an
In his application essay, Kwasi wrote, “Music has become the educator that has taught me the importance of leadership, teamwork and friendship...” hour or two because he has other things he has to do. We’ve directed him to be a high achiever. And he knows this is what’s expected of him. No two ways.” The Post published excerpts from Kwasi’s application essay, which is about his love of music. “Music has become the educator that has taught me the importance of leadership, teamwork and friendship….I know how strong that (a) group can be if every member puts one hundred percent effort into our task. Leadership is not always about directing others. The most important task of a leader is to create harmony between each member of the group, which reveals the group’s maximum potential. With improvement and balance comes success, and music taught me all of these virtues.” Why so many schools applied to? He was afraid he wouldn’t get in. He also applied to Duke, SUNY Geneseo and Binghamton University and got into those. Where will he go? He hopes for Yale. But, his final decision may be influenced by financial aid. He will, I suspect, get it.

Hot Water An Essay About the Water that Comes Out of the Pipes in Your Bathroom By Dan Rattiner
I
f I’m the first one up in the morning at our house in East Hampton, I go into the bathroom and turn on the hot water and wait. In spite of the letter H on the handle, it takes about a minute before the water coming out is hot. There is cold water in the pipes, which have not been in use all night. The hot water in the hot water heater has to rise up through the pipes to the bathroom. So finally, the hot water arrives, hooray!, and I wash my face and brush my teeth. When I’m done, others use the bathroom and the water is already hot. My wife and I maintain an apartment in the city, however, and when we are there, in the morning the water is always hot, even when I’m first to get up. I figure somebody elsewhere in the building has been up earlier. But the other morning, I got up just before dawn and thought I ought to be the first. But I wasn’t. The water was hot as soon as I turned it on. It’s the same mechanical system in the apartment as it is in our home. Cold pipes at night. Hot water from the water heater flushing out the cold. So how do I get to be first? Well, I suppose you could say you have to get up pretty early in the morning to be first, as the old phrase goes about the early bird and the worm. But surely everybody is asleep in the middle of the night. So somebody has to be first. I looked in the mirror and thought about it that morning. This building is 15 stories high.
There are eight apartments on a floor. That’s 120 apartments. And there are, probably, on average, three people to an apartment. So that’s 360 people all getting up in the morning at one time or another. At that rate, it would seem, I would get to be first, enjoying the delicious experience of getting the cold water out of the H tap, on average about once a year. But that assumes I’m here 365 days a year, which I am not. I am only in the city two nights a week. So that means much more time will have to pass for me to get to 360. I ran the numbers. My chance of being the first one up in the building and therefore the first to have to wait to get the hot water to come up in the pipes, a rare honor, will come around only once in every three-anda-half years. I will have to remember this. Or maybe I won’t have to. There’s a shortcut. Leap Year comes every four years. So Leap Year could mark the span of my chances. If one Leap Year passed and then another Leap Year passed without me getting the cold water out of the H tap, I could probably count on my turn coming up soon. Out the bathroom window, the sun rose over Long Island City. Beyond that was East Hampton and my home, where I can count on being the first one to get the delay in the hot water rising about every three days. It’s just one of those perks you get living in the Hamptons.

This Week’s Cover Artist: Michael Kotasek This week’s cover, “The Lobsterman” by Michael Kotasek, celebrates our local heritage and the hardworking men who have farmed the sea’s bounty for generations. The large oil is expressive, moody with an eerie, peach-colored light. But the painting used to look different, once featuring conifers, rocks and a blue sky where the stark, orange emptiness now lives. Kotasek rarely feels a painting is complete—it is fluid and changing, like the waters he so often paints. “The Lobsterman,” has changed since the first time you “finished” it. Can you explain? Initially I did it as a watercolor. Then decided to take it further and do a large oil painting. It was more prosaic looking. The face was somewhat crudely done. It sat around in the studio in that state for probably more than a year before I got back to it. Also, the overall color scheme has changed. The painting became a self-portrait. How did that come about. In a sense, they all are [self-portraits]. It wasn’t so much intended to be a self-portrait as it was a situation where I used myself as a model. When I did the oil painting, the model I
had used for the watercolor wasn’t available, so I put my face in instead.
The obvious influences are painters Andrew and Jamie Wyeth, Edward Hopper, Winslow Homer, Bo Bartlett. But I’m also a big fan of Lucien Freud, Vincent Desiderio, Julio Larraz, John Currin, Jenny Saville and Rembrandt.
You’re a rather humble guy. How is it painting your face into a piece? I‘m not the type of person who spends a lot of time in front of a mirror. But you must if you‘re using yourself as the model. I suppose any artwork really is a reflection of the artist no matter the subject matter— encrypted bits of the artist’s psyche. Tell me about your process. I like drawing directly from life. Sometimes an idea will go directly to a painting. Other times an idea takes more time to congeal and the drawings lay around the studio for some time before I revisit them. I have a lot of drawings that are pretty straightforward renderings from direct observation. Occasionally something in it will stimulate me to further elaborate. The sea is a recurring theme in your work. What’s the attraction? I like the mystery of the sea—the unknown lying just beneath the surface, unknown beauty and danger. Like once when I was a kid on vacation with my family. I was having a great time playing in the waves on a Caribbean beach, until I stepped on a sea urchin. Who are your primary influences, your favorite painters?
You say your paintings are “distilled” to their most important elements. Tell me about the editing process. I look at the process of painting as writing in a visual language. Like telling any story, you can easily lose your audience by spending too much effort describing things that aren’t critical to the story. But by downplaying certain details while embellishing others, the same subject matter can take on an entirely different meaning. It sounds easier than it is. I think of it as visual eloquence. Tina Guiomar
By oliver peterson
Do you imagine a narrative in your paintings? What’s your lobsterman’s story? There always is [a story], but often not obvious—hidden somewhere beneath the surface. If the viewer simply enjoys it at face value that’s fine with me. I always prefer to hear other people’s interpretation of my paintings.

Brewing Up Support for Local Charities If I had to describe my ideal Saturday, it would involve running, beer and Montauk. Throw in raising money for a worthy nonprofit— one that supports such missions and uniquely East End causes as a surf camp for autistic children—and you’ve produced a dream daycation: the biannual Paddlers for Humanity Montauk Brewathlon. Fittingly, the event combines our area’s love of the outdoors, raising money for local charities and beer. The Montauk Brewathlon, to be held on April 19 from 2–5 p.m., celebrates the sprit of the East End. This season’s race is a 5,000meter stationary row, a 10K bike and a 5K run, starting at the Montauk Brewery at 62 South Erie Avenue in Montauk. Fitness—and beer— aficionados can compete in the team or single division. Teams consist of three people, and must include one female. All levels of athletes are welcome to participate. “It’s the ideal event for Paddlers for Humanity,” Paddlers for Humanity board member Fred Doss says. “It stresses community, athletics, movement, challenge and joy, and all to raise funds to enhance the lives of children and youth.” There is a $250 participation fee for each team, and each member receives a race shirt, Brewathlon glass and one raffle ticket. The top three teams receive a prize. To support Paddlers for Humanity’s (P4H) mission, all proceeds are donated to various organizations focused on bettering the lives of children. This is P4H’s second Brewathlon. The first was held in October 2013, with that inaugural event substituting the rowing portion with a paddle on Fort Pond. P4H is planning on replicating the fall event again this October.
The Montauk Brewathlon, to be held on April 19, celebrates the spirit of the East End with a 5,000m row, 10K bike and 5K run. “First-time and returning participants will challenge themselves, have a lot of fun and know that their athletic and fundraising efforts will make a difference for a lot of people,” Doss continues. Of course, Montauk Brewing Company will keep everyone hydrated. “Montauk Brewing Co. is a brand focused on adventure, the outdoor lifestyle, physical activity, and therefore we love being a part of events like this,” says Montauk Brewing Co. co-founder Vaughan Cutillo. Paddlers for Humanity is an East Hampton– based nonprofit that raises money for children and youth charities. The organization has raised more than $700,000 to give to such organizations as the East End food pantries, the East Hampton Day Care Learning Center, the Montauk Playhouse Community Center, The Retreat and LICOP (Long Island Communities of Practice).
The Brewathlon is just 2014. This year’s paddle one in a series of summer will occur on Saturday, events that benefit August 9. Paddlers for Humanity.

Peter Matthiessen, 86
P
eter Matthiessen, the tall, gentle presence who for more than half a century made Sagaponack his home, has died at the age of 86. Matthiessen made his mark on the world in many fields, most notably literature, where two of his many books won a total of three National Book Awards, two for nonfiction and one for fiction. He also wrote Men’s Lives, which drew upon the three years in the mid-1950s when he was a commercial fisherman, working with the local Bonackers in these parts, haul-seining for bass and bluefish from pickup trucks and boats along the ocean beaches here. Matthiessen grew up among the wealthy set of
Manhattan in the 1930s. One of his best friends was the late George Plimpton, with whom, in Paris in the 1950s, he and others founded The Paris Review. The two grew up in the same Fifth Avenue building and went to St. Bernard’s School together; Matthiessen eventually went off to Yale, while Plimpton attended Harvard. Both rebelled from their backgrounds as young men. Both became authors and both traveled widely, Plimpton largely among kings and queens and other royalty, Matthiessen largely among adventurers and
explorers. Matthiessen came to celebrate the natural world. Matthiessen joined the U.S. Navy at the tail end of World War II and at 18 served at Pearl Harbor. After the war he went to Yale, where he wrote a short story, “Sadie,” which won a prestigious prize given by The Atlantic magazine. After graduation in 1950, inspired by the prize and The Atlantic’s accepting a second story, he hired an agent, Bernice Baumgarten, and gave her the first few chapters to a novel, and she sent it around. Author Peter Matthiessen “I waited by the post office for praise to roll in, calls from Hollywood, everything,” Matthiessen said in an interview with Kay Bonetti of The Missouri Review years later. The letter soon arrived. “Dear Peter, James Fenimore Cooper wrote this 150 years ago, only he wrote it better. Yours, Bernice.” Many prominent American writers went to live in Paris after the war. They included Irwin Shaw, Terry Southern, James Baldwin, James Jones, William Styron and others. Matthiessen went, too, to write a novel but also secretly as an agent for the CIA. He needed a job to support himself while writing. With the CIA, he reported on the activities of certain Americans in that community. Matthiessen later said being a CIA agent was the only adventure he ever regretted. He was young, he said. But the fact was, many Yalies joined that organization after the war. Matthiessen married Patsy Southgate, an American he had met in Paris while they were both undergraduates studying at the Sorbonne. Then, returning to Paris, he talked to author Harold Humes and others about starting a literary magazine. Matthiessen would be publisher, but early on he felt Humes, though brilliant, was too erratic to be the editor. So he turned to George Plimpton, his old friend from America, at that time studying in London, who became the first editor of The Paris Review in 1953. (Plimpton remained its editor until his death in 2003.) Matthiessen left the CIA shortly thereafter, but many years later had to tell Plimpton that The Paris Review was founded as a “cover” for his day job with the CIA—something that, by all accounts, made Plimpton very angry for a while. Matthiessen and Southgate returned to America and rented a house in Sag Harbor. Matthiessen continued his writing, but it wasn’t bringing in much money. So he started to run a charter boat that took people deep-sea fishing out of Montauk. In addition, he became a commercial fisherman, working with the Bonackers fishing for sea bass and bluefish out of the surf in Bridgehampton. A decade later, Matthiessen bought six acres in Sagaponack and made that his home. He would live there the rest of his life. There are locals today who fondly remember Matthiessen in his years as a commercial fisherman. Often, he would be away traveling to exotic places such as Peru, Tierra del Fuego, the Amazon or Tanzania. But he’d always come 31641 back. John White, a local (Continued on page 26) Linda Girvin

NEWS BRIEFS Compiled by kelly laffey
NOYAC: Three undetonated explosives were discovered by a father and son who were beachcombing near Long Beach in Noyac on Sunday. Dan’s Papers own Tom W. Ratcliffe III and his 6-year-old son called 911 and Southampton Town police responded, who in turn called town fire marshals. Fire Marshal John Rankin said Monday morning that Suffolk County Police Emergency Service was called in to take the explosive material away and dispose of it elsewhere. The explosives were found in large rocks put in place as a revetment at the north end of Long Beach to shore up the area following severe erosion from Superstorm Sandy. Ratcliffe found two of the explosives in a man-made hole in of one of the rocks, and the third was nearby. Rankin believes the explosives came from the quarry where the large rocks originated. Similar explosives were found in North Haven last year by the ferry terminal, and are also believed to have come from a quarry.

Rendering of “Tokyo Brushstroke I & II” at the Parrish Art Museum
WATER MILL: The Parrish Art Museum will be displaying a large outdoor sculpture by one of the East End’s most famous and accomplished artists this month. As of Friday, April 18, pop art legend Roy Lichtenstein‘s monumental work “Tokyo Brushstroke I & II” (1994) will be on view on the museum’s front lawn, west of the driveway entrance near Montauk Highway in Water Mill. The 33-foot-tall sculpture is the first long-term outdoor installation at the Parrish since the museum moved to its new Water Mill digs. The work, made of painted and fabricated aluminum by Paul Amaral of Amaral Custom Fabrication in Rhode Island, is on long-term loan from the Roy Lichtenstein Foundation, courtesy of Glenn and Amanda Fuhrman and the Fuhrman Family Foundation. “The Parrish Art Museum is thrilled to become the home for ‘Tokyo Brushstroke I & II’ at this time,” Parrish Art Museum Director Terrie Sultan said. The installation continues the Parrish Museum’s longstanding tradition of celebrating Lichtenstein, who moved to Southampton in 1970.
RIVERHEAD: Riverhead’s farmers market, which made its debut in February at the former Swezey’s on East Main Street, was originally going to end its season May 17 but now it will extend year round, taking place outdoors from May 24 through November. The indoor market is open from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., while the outdoor market will operate from from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the riverfront. In addition to the farmers who take part in the indoor market, organizer Holly Browder said the market expects to add a few more local vegetable farms for the summer season, including Garden of Eve, Mar-gene Organic Farm and Invincible Summer Farm. The current level of 35 vendors will increase to 50 in the summer. Browder said that after November the market may move into a different, and larger, storefront on the same street. In related news, the Topping Rose Farmers Market in Bridgehampton takes the summer off after their April 18 market.
Matthiessen (Cont’d from page 24) farmer, remembers a day when he was 10 years old and his dad and their friends caught an exotic, brightly colored fish in their net with all the bluefish. Matthiessen was not with them. But they figured he would know what it was, so they brought it to him. He had no idea either. Another time, according to White, some exotic pet that Matthiessen had brought back from a trip to the outback of Australia—a dingo or something—attacked some of White’s pet ducks. “He was so apologetic,” White said, “that I couldn’t be mad at him. He was really such a nice guy.” Matthiessen often said his time with the Hamptons locals was among the happiest in his life. In 1956, Matthiessen and Southgate divorced. In 1963, he married writer Deborah Love, who was a member of the newly blossoming counterculture. They both experimented with LSD and other drugs and subsequently, Love became a Zen Buddhist. Soon thereafter, Matthiessen followed. Love died from cancer in early 1972, and it had a great effect on Matthiessen. He went back
to his traveling in earnest and wrote prolifically, creating some of what his critics consider his greatest work. He wrote Far Tortuga in 1975, a novel about a ship captain out of Grand Cayman searching for turtles in the Caribbean. In 1978, five years after traveling on a quest in the Himalayas to find, among other things, the endangered snow leopard, he wrote The Snow Leopard, which won the National Book Award for “Contemporary Thought” in 1979 and, in 1980, for General Nonfiction. Altogether he wrote more than 30 books, and included among them was 1986’s Men’s Lives: The Surfmen and Baymen of the South Fork. But Zen Buddhism, the art of quieting your mind so you can live in the present, sitting silently with friends cross-legged on a zafu, meditating for hours on end, became, along with his writing and his adventures, Matthiessen’s main passion. Some will recall the zendo, the meditation room that Matthiessen created on his property, accessible from Bridge Lane in Sagaponack, where many of his friends and he would assemble for tea and meditation, sitting
for hours and hours. It was, in fact, open to all comers. A particular story from that era stands out in my mind. Matthiessen drove an old sedan. He was, of course, an environmentalist. No sense recycling a car that was perfectly good. One morning he woke up to find he had parked the car but had never turned the engine off. It had been on all night, and still had not run out of gas. That he had done that both appalled and amused Matthiessen no end. Matthiessen married Tanzanian-born Maria Eckhart in 1980. In 2008, he received still another National Book Award, for Fiction, for Shadow Country, a retelling of his earlier works known as the Watson Trilogy. Matthiessen’s last book, In Paradise, a fictional work about a group coming to a former Nazi death camp for a meditative retreat, was by coincidence published only a few days after his death from leukemia last Saturday at a hospital near his home here. He is survived by a son, Lucas, and daughter, Sara, from his marriage to Patsy Southgate; a daughter and son, Rue and Alex, from his second marriage, to Deborah Love; two stepdaughters and six grandchildren.

SUMMER CAMPS
CAMP ROUNDUP
There’s an East End summer camp for every kid.
FAMILY FITNESS
Race your way to a healthy summer.
By judy s. klinghoffer
W
e’ve endured snow, cold, wind, more snow, freezing rain and yet more snow. You and your family have shoveled, dodged potholes and walked the dog in winds high enough to scare Dorothy and Toto. You deserve a break, and so do your kids, regardless of what horrors the weather can throw at us. Even with all those spectacular winter storms and subsequent snow days, spring break has emerged relatively unscathed. Most kids in the area still have four full days off, to recoup from state-wide tests and other school-related stress. East End moms know just where to look for spring break camps that will make the most of your kid’s mini staycation, and maybe leave you some free time to meet up with your book group. One option is taking your little athlete over to Future Stars Southampton. Two huge inflatable bubbles bloom over the eight outdoor tennis courts for weatherproof fun. One dome is dedicated to indoor tennis, the other is primed for soccer, lacrosse, baseball, football and field hockey. With the option to sign up for half or full days, you can configure your kids’ spring break to leave enough family time to take in the Muppet movie. For the high energy kid with the personality of a Jack Russell terrier, Future Stars is a great option to keep your kids active and happy and to sharpen their skills for the warmer weather. For some kids, it’s just not camp unless there’s an
art project involved. The Parrish Museum has their Open Studio for families as well as a Spring Break camp. You can kick off your spring break activities with the Parrish’s Open Studio program on Saturday, April 12. It’s free with admission. After a tour exploring the galleries with a docent, your family can create their own artistic marvels in the Studio. If you turn green with envy when your kids break out the finger paints, the Open Studio will satisfy your artistic cravings, and you’ll still get brownie points for a cool family activity. The Parrish Museum’s mini-camp runs programs for two age groups. Kids 4–6 get the early shift from 10 a.m. to noon. The afternoon, from 1–3 p.m., is for kids 7 and up. Each day will focus on a different theme, including spring impressionistic painting, cityscapes, spring sculptures, portraits and painting local scenes. Camp runs from Monday April 14 through Friday April 18. You can register online and go for the whole week or pick and choose at $40 a session, $30 for museum members. It wouldn’t be the Hamptons without something for the drama queens (and kings) in your family. Bay Street Theatre’s Spring Vacation Theatre Camp is a good fit for kids 8–12. This year, because of the slightly shorter spring break, camp is four days, April 15 through April 18, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. “We’ll just have to squeeze more in,” Karen Hochstedler, who runs the Bay Street program with Bethany Dellapolla says. The camp culminates with kids creating their own original production, which debuts at the end of the week. “The parents are very enthusiastic and

Spring Break Arrives with the Promise of Camp

impressed,” Hochstedler comments. Her method is to take something the kids know, like the concept of friendship, and build a little narrative around their own personal stories. Dellapolla and Hochstedler guide the budding stars through improv exercises and theater games, as well as instructing them in all aspects of performance. “You don’t have to be a performer to get something out of the program,” Hohstedler remarks. “The kids learn to listen to each other. They learn how to be more comfortable with who they are.” With so many choices, all of them indoor, you can disregard what Mother Nature chooses to throw at us and enjoy spring break in style.

Bridgehampton, kids ages 9–12 will enjoy a Seussical twist on Shakespeare in “Green Eggs and Hamlet,” held from August 4–8. The August 25–20 camp for ages 7–9 delves into Shakespearean comedies in a mini Midsummer Dream camp. Call 631-725-0818 or visit baystreet.org for additional information. If you child is more at home in the water than on land, then maybe sailing camp is the ticket to a fantastic summer. Breakwater Yacht Club in Sag Harbor provides junior sailing instruction for kids ages 9 and up. This season, the youth sailing program is offering beginner, intermediate and racing classes. Beginner classes run for one week, beginning June 27. Beginner lessons include instructions on rigging a boat and what to do if your craft capsizes. Students learn about how a boat responds to wind before they see these concepts in action on the water. But don’t let your kids have all the fun. Contact Breakwater for adult sailing and rental information. Visit breakwayernyc.org for additional information. New for 2014, let your child explore his or her inner stage persona at the East Hampton Art and Theatre Camp. The camp focuses on musical performance and studio art. The day will be spent in various performance classes such as improv, dance and music, taught by actors currently working in New York City, accompanied by studio art classes, like collage and set and costume design. The camp, which is held at Pierson High School, offers fourweek and eight-week sessions, open to ages 6–14. Session One runs from June 30–July 25; and Session Two operates from July 28–August 22. Sessions are Monday through Friday, 9 a.m.–3 p.m.

A Constant Photographer, Snapshots of Summer ummer on Long Island is both blissfully close and tragically short, making capturing those sun-soaked family moments all the more important. I’ve written many columns about digital cameras and photo services. And for good reason. Although web video is exploding, the good old photo remains the primary global currency of social media—the Euro or Bitcoin, if you will. At the same time, the gadget world is abuzz with talk about wearable devices. The phrase “Internet Of Things” became an industry cliché overnight, way faster than terms like “2.0” or “connect the dots” or “thinking outside the box.” There’s lots of steak, but is there any sizzle? So far, there have been more misses than hits. Google Glass has tons of heat, and it will probably take over the world someday, but not nearly as fast as we thought. Fitness bracelets are already quite popular, and real utility for consumers, but also quite limited in functionality. Samsung and Apple are racing to bring us wristwatch computers, but there’s legitimate debate about why we need these toys. Don’t get me wrong. I’m a huge believer in connected wearables. The issue is that no one has figured out how to program these devices to enhance behaviors that are already ingrained in our lives. Which brings me back to photography. Last week, I finally received my Narrative Clip Camera. I first wrote about it about 16 months ago, when the company was barely formed. Originally called the Memoto, the premise was really cool: it’s a tiny, clip-on camera that automatically shoots photos at regular, 30-second intervals. Later, you review all these life moments that you didn’t have time to point and shoot.

I plunked down $250 and began to wait. And wait. And wait. There were product delays and supplier problems, issues that every startup deals with. There was a legal challenge to the name “Memoto,” so they had to change it. (Much to my kids’ chagrin) Despite these frustrations, it’s actually been quite interesting to follow the ups and downs of a product launch from the inception. So when my prized little camera finally arrived, I tore open the box like the first night of Chanukah. WOW! What a wonderful, weird, quirky experience. The Narrative Clip was just as advertised: tiny, sleek, with a sturdy metal clip that snugly attaches to any item of clothing. The only visible markings are four LED lights that indicate battery level. Narrative Clip cameras capture summer. Here’s where it gets awesome. To activate, you simply attach the camera to your shirt and go and unusable, but there were dozens of pix that about your business. You have no idea that it’s surprised and delighted—images you would never even working. It silently shoots a new photo every be able to capture with another camera, even if you 30 seconds. You can double tap to manually take a wanted to. And despite the steps required to view the photos, specific shot, which is a nice feature. Viewing the photos is where it gets wonky. For now, this just adds to the suspense and anticipation when the Narrative does not have WiFi. When finished, you you connect the Narrative and finally reveal the take off the unit, connect it to your computer via shots. The Narrative isn’t cheap. The list price is $279 USB, and it automatically creates a timeline of all the right now. But you get free cloud storage for your images you just captured. You must also download the free Narrative photos, and it’s easy to delete and clip and save the smartphone app. Once that is done, your photos best ones to your phone, for no extra charge. In the end, this camera is a prime example of how will automatically appear on your device—but again, companies should look at wearables. Do we need NOT until you’ve tethered it to a computer. Like I said, the process is still a bit wonky. to watch video on our wristwatches, or beam email But man, are the photos awesome. My 8-year- messages through eyeglasses? I’m not sure. But a old daughter wore it to her basketball game and simple device that changes behavior and empowers delivered hundreds of really cool shots from inside us to see the world differently? That, my friends, is the Internet of Things. the huddle and on the court. Sure, many are blurry

NORTH FORK EVENTS

So much to see and do this weekend!
Celebrating My Love of North Fork Dandelions
Y
ounger days were filled with carefully picking and tying the most beautiful of dandelions to wear as a necklace, blowing the fluffy parachuted seeds off the dandelion heads to make wishes, and running around the schoolyard screaming, “momma had a baby and its head popped off” while flicking flowers off with our little thumbs as we laughed. Dandelions are a wonderful part of childhood so why do some adults hate them with such a vengeance? Americans are smart and strong-minded so why have a majority been brainwashed by lawn care companies? Now that I’m older, my interactions with dandelions have changed but my love for them has only grown. As a beekeeper in the metropolitan area, the single most valuable early spring wildflower is the dandelion. They bloom when there are few other flowers for my bees to visit. They provide a vital source of both nectar and pollen at a time of year when the bees’ food stores are at their lowest. Just like a plate of chicken and rice for dinner, the pollen is the bees’ source of protein, fat, vitamins and minerals and the nectar, what the bees use to make honey, is their carbohydrate source. To ensure good nutrition, the bees visit and collect from other flower types too. Dandelions turn an uninspiring expanse of green lawn into a smorgasbord for pollinators and your family! They are a member of the aster family, which includes chicory, escarole, endive and radicchio.

Served in the finest of restaurants, dandelion greens (the young leaves) provide impressive nutrition. One cup of raw dandelion greens is a very good source of dietary fiber (8% DV), Vitamin A (112% DV), Vitamin C (32% DV), Vitamin E (9% DV), Vitamin K (535% DV), Thiamin (7% DV), Riboflavin (8%DV), Vitamin B6 (7% DV), Calcium (10%DV), Iron (9% DV), Potassium (6% DV), and Manganese (9% DV). To use the fresh dandelions in a salad, chop up the young leaves and sprinkle them over mixed greens. The bitterness of the dandelions is lost but the overall flavor of the salad is enhanced. As Italian menus have long celebrated bitter greens, Southold’s Ken Dolney remembers eating dandelion salad with his stepfather Goffredo Luciano. “In the ’60s, my mom would tell me to go pick dandelions from the yard and the next thing you know, we were eating dandelions as a salad.” Dandelion greens are naturally bitter and are best picked when they are young and tender, typically between mid-April to early-May. Thinking more about dandelions, Dolney adds, “Years ago, the ‘in thing’ was having dandelions in your lawn. Spring flowers are all abuzz!

In addition to benefitting Bay Street, 10% of the dog walk’s proceeds will be donated to the Southampton Animal Shelter. Serving as celebrity host at both the cocktail party and the dog walk Jill Rappaport and friend is Jill Rappaport, the award-winning animal advocate and NBC’s animal welfare correspondent. “I’m just so honored that they asked me to do the walk,” says Rappaport, who also hosted the inaugural walk in 2013. She was the Water Mill-based Pet Philanthropy Circle’s 2012 Pet Humanitarian of the year and the honoree at Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation’s Unconditional Love Gala last year. She says the dog walk is a great way for people to show off their pets and have some fun in the sun in a beautiful area. Rappaport has six rescue dogs and she plans to bring as many as she can walk at one time.

“I’m the one who feels rescued—by my rescues,” she says. Anything she can do to raise attention and get a little buzz for shelter pets, whether it’s a walk or a cocktail party, she’ll do, Rappaport says. She also wants to dispel misconceptions about shelter pets. “The only difference between these dogs and Westminster is their situation,” she says. Participation in the walk, on May 4 at 11 a.m., is $35 per registrant and participants can get sponsors to raise more money. Admission to the cocktail party, on May 3 from 5 to 7 p.m., is included with a $150 festival VIP pass, the proceeds of which support Bay Street’s educational programs. During the party, guests can enjoy short boat excursions by Southold’s Port of Egypt to view Steinbeck’s home and writing studio from the water and Wölffer Estate Vineyard winemaker and partner Roman Roth will pour his Grapes of Roth wine. Steinbeck is best known from the American literary classics The Grapes of Wrath—which is in its 75th anniversary year—East of Eden and Of Mice and Men, all of which were made into films. During the festival, Bay Street will screen the film adaptations of these three novels plus the films based on Steinbeck’s Tortilla Flat, Cannery Row, The Red Pony, The Moon Is Down and Lifeboat. Films are $10 each at the door, or for $30 festivalgoers may attend as many screenings as they wish. Call 631-725-9500 for film passes. Call 631-7250818 for an all-inclusive VIP pass.

Movies... Draft Day Man, it’s hard living through the days when you wake up and realize: nobody’s playing football today. The AM radio dial is filled with the sound of rending garments and gnashing teeth as people struggle to find anything to talk about, with a few brave souls venturing sunny predictions about what the world might look like when football starts up again. Now there’s a cure for what ails us. Draft Day, the new Kevin Costner sportslover flick, all about the NFL draft. Ever wonder what it’s really like when those NFL teams go at it to put together next year’s lineup? Ever wonder how they choose which lucky college players are going to have the opportunity to get massive head injuries at the professional level? Ever wonder how to fill the abyss between the end of one football season and the start of the next? Draft Day! Hateship Loveship Here’s a movie that poses the important question: how long does a comedian have to wait before he/she can move into more “serious” dramatic roles? Obviously, if the comedian in question were a talented actor, it would help ease that transition. In Hateship Loveship Kristen Wiig, a star of Saturday Night Live heretofore known largely for her comic
turns in films like Bridesmaids, takes on a serious role as a lovelorn, middle-aged woman hired by a wealthy family to be a caretaker for a teenaged girl. The teenager’s father, played by Guy Pearce, has issues with substance abuse and is largely estranged from his daughter—Nick Nolte plays the craggy grandfather who has brought in the caretaker. Wiig, whose comedy has often depended on her straightfaced, dead-pan delivery, doesn’t seem to have much ability to show any facial expression beyond a kind of slack disappointment, making her emotionally inscrutable as the story of her hapless affection for the troubled father plays out. Comedy may be a training ground for many things, but serious acting isn’t necessarily one of them. Cuban Fury All you can say is...YESSS! Nick Frost, who played the part of the chubby sidekick in the beloved Cornetto trilogy Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, and The World’s End, takes the lead as Bruce Garrett in Cuban Fury. As a youngster, Bruce had been a salsa-dancing prodigy, but at the age of 13 he suffered an injury (at the hands of bullies) that robbed him of his salsa crown and his promising future. Now, middle-aged and obese, his salsa-dancing just a memory, he has a crush on a new coworker, Julia, played by Rashida Jones. His rival for her affections, the menacing Drew (Chris O’Dowd), is tall and lean and, most importantly, a salsa-dancing whiz. You can guess the silly, cornball rest—but that won’t spoil any of the fun.

SHOP ‘TIL YOU DROP
FABU FINDS
Where to find the bargains this weekend.
For you, family and friends.
By stephanie de troy
Can you feel it? That buzz of activity on the East End means summer isn’t far off. The Parrish Art Museum kicked things off with their annual Spring Fling this past Saturday, bringing locals and weekenders out for a fun night of dancing, schmoozing and bidding on prizes from the silent auction, in the name of raising funds for the museum’s educational programs. Over the weekend, the coffee lines at the Golden Pear in Southampton doubled, if not tripled, and those golden parking spots were becoming more of a rarity. Storefronts all over town are posting help wanted ads—yet another sign of summer’s pending return. After a late night of dancing, Sunday morning began, as all ought, with breakfast at Goldberg’s. This time, it was the Westhampton Beach location— which has the same delicious fresh bagels and breakfast sandwiches as their multiple East End sisters and the added bonus of nice tables and chairs. Never an easy decision, my egg and Swiss on toasted multi-grain hit the spot but left a lingering desire for a sesame toasted with cream cheese. Goldberg’s Famous Deli & Restaurant is located at 65 Main Street, Westhampton Beach. Call 631-998-3878 or visit goldbergsfamouswhb.com.
From there, it was a sun-filled stroll to Island Surf to check out their new goods. They’ve moved things around to accommodate a great line of colorful hoodies, T-shirts and sweatpants bearing their name, as well as a whole Patagonia line, Sanouk flip-flops, Ray Ban and all sorts of sunglasses, skim boards, skateboards, paddleboards, surfboards and boogie boards, not to mention plenty of wetsuits and rash guards. And of course they just started putting out their beachwear, sunhats and all sorts of lifeguard-quality sunscreens. Who’s ready? Island Surf is located at 49 Sunset Ave, Westhampton Beach. Call 631-288-4155 or visit islandsurf.net. When in Westhampton, Vines and Branches is not to be missed. Stock up on specialty olive oils and vinegars in different flavors so the next time you have company, all you’ll need to do is pick up a baguette and a bottle of wine and the appetizers are taken care of. Vines & Branches is located at 118 Main Street, Westhampton Beach. Call 631288-2100. Or, if you’re in Southampton, stop by at 94 Main Street. North Forkers looking for a taste of Italy can head to 477 Main Street in Greenport Village. NEW KID ON THE BLOCK You know what it’s like. You’ve spent the day at the beach and have to head straight to an elegant poolside party for sunset cocktails. Trouble is, with traffic, it’ll take you an extra hour to head home and shower.

Interplanting Flowers for Gardening Success Now that I have seeds for the vegetable gardens, I’m beginning to think of flowers to interplant. The most important reason to plant flowers with vegetables is to attract beneficial insects and pollinators. The more flowers, the better for bees and butterflies, and the more bees and butterflies, the better for the gardener! Bees and butterflies are both in danger, so it behooves us to provide them with nourishment wherever possible. I have always planted marigolds with tomatoes and beans and tucked more in between squash bushes. They repel bean beetles, tomato hornworms, (oh, how I hate them!) and squash bugs. Use the short ones, in fact, the shortest possible. I also really like the fragrance of marigolds! I have also always planted nasturtiums. They are edible—flowers and leaves—and depending on the variety, can be short and bushy to vines. You don’t want the wrong size in the wrong place, as they are vigorous plants. I plant nasturtium seeds but marigold plants. There are vines I like to plant. There’s always room for a tee-pee if needed. Morning glories and sweet peas just need to be in a vegetable garden. Both can be planted as seeds. Be sure to plant according to directions. Sweet peas are cool weather plants

Make Your Summer Rental Feel Like Home
W
ell it’s that time of year again and spring is in bloom. After a long winter, the anticipation of returning to the Hamptons for a summer filled with rest and relaxation is quite appealing. If you’re a devoted seasonal renter, you probably already know where you’ll be vacationing this year. As for the newcomers, there are many things to take into consideration and each property offers something special and unique. Whether you prefer a seaside cottage, oceanfront mansion or village charmer, each option will provide exceptional amenities and, hopefully, all of the comforts of home. For those who like to add a little of your own personalized touch, there are five simple steps that can easily create the perfect summer oasis in no time. Most summer rentals come completely furnished and decorated. While the color choices, artwork and furniture may not always be to your preference; some renters find that by adding a touch of individual style, an immediate sense of home and coziness can be established. Remember, with a little imagination and creativity, anything is possible. Step One: Décor Personal style can be accomplished by bringing in a few tabletop family photos; a collection of books (summer reads, coffee table, photography, etc.) and the use of throw pillows or a favorite blanket/ cashmere throw can create a sense of warmth. Bright colors and summer-themed prints are very popular. Step Two: Scents Certain scents like vanilla and lavender can help
with relaxation and sleep, while other scents like ocean breeze, fresh linen and citrus offer an awakening aroma. Fresh cut flowers of all kinds are a fabulous way to make your rental welcoming. Whether you like to put flowers in one room or every room in the house, it’s always a nice touch. From roses and hydrangeas to peonies and lilacs, you can’t go wrong. Potted herbs like rosemary, basil and sage are perfect options for any kitchen. Arrange a fresh bowl of apples, pears, bananas and citrus to create an appealing look and great fragrance.

Southampton Restaurant Review: La Hacienda
O
ne of the best and most authentic Mexican restaurants on Long Island, named La Hacienda, is right here in the Hamptons, tucked away on Jagger Lane in Southampton Village La Hacienda—the “H” is silent, so it’s pronounced “la-cee-en-da”—is a counter service restaurant for eat-in and take-out meals. Inside the unassuming storefront, the paint, plaster and decorations have created a little slice of Mexico. Photos of food displayed above the counter give a good idea of the meal that’s in store. The friendly staff is happy to take your order and tell you an approximate time it will be ready, so customers may grab a chair and read a paper while they wait, or so they can walk around for a few minutes and enjoy a nice spring day in Southampton. Located right across the street from Waldbaum’s, it’s a perfect spot to drop in while running errands. To avoid a wait, orders may be called in ahead of time. There are many options on the menu, all of which can be customized. Tacos come in soft and hard shell varieties, and the burritos come on flour tortillas. The torta is a variety of Mexican sandwich. The gordita, or “little fat one,” is like a small cake, but stuffed with meat and cheese. The taquitos are corn tortillas stuffed with meat and fried. The quesadillas come with a small salad, and the nachos include meat, beans, lettuce, guacamole, tomato and cheese. The meat choices include beef, chicken, marinated
pork, fried pork, chorizo (Spanish pork sausage) and beef tongue. Shrimp and breaded and fried fish are also among the options. Vegetarian varieties are available for most menu items. The ground beef is traditional and tasty, while the chicken is a healthier option that doesn’t sacrifice flavor—salsa and cilantro make everything so good. The chorizo is plenty spicy but not so hot that diners will be taking sips of a drink in between bites. On Saturdays and Sundays only, menudo, which is beef tripe (stomach) soup, is served. To get the best value, pick a combo, which all come with rice and refried beans. The beans are topped with cheese, and tortilla chips are included for dipping. Ask for the spicy salsa roja or the sweeter salsa verde to accompany your chips, or for pouring onto your burrito and Managers Delia Hernandez and Luis Prudencio tacos. My standby lunch is the burrito-taco combo. I appetite. So take a slice of flan home for dessert later. The breakfast menu has such traditional Mexican prefer a chicken burrito, which has beans, rice, onion, cilantro and salsa, and I ask for guacamole dishes as huevos rancheros—eggs, chili sauce, and sour cream too. (The kitchen will add or subtract beans, rice and tortillas—and machaca—shredded whatever you like.) The chicken is just as good on a beef and scrambled eggs. Also enjoy chorizo and taco, though lately I have been choosing chorizo on eggs or a breakfast burrito. For a beverage, in addition to Mexican sodas, La a soft shell and I may never go back. On top of finding the most bang for your buck Hacienda offers horchata, a traditional rice-based on the combo menu, that’s also where to find drink, and a pineapple drink. enchiladas—filled and rolled tortillas with chili sauce La Hacienda Mexican Food, 48 Jagger on top—and birria, a spicy meat stew. Combos are priced between $8.75 and $9.50. The Lane, Southampton. 631-259-6834. Open seven days a portions are very generous and will satisfy any week year round. Cash only. B. J. O’Reilly

Celebrating Springtime Rituals in the Hamptons By silvia lehrer
The Jewish holiday of Passover begins at sundown on Monday, April 14, and continues for eight days. Palm Sunday begins Easter Week on April 13, continuing to Easter Sunday, on April 20. Unique traditions abound for each holiday, yet strong commonality exists with the abundant use of eggs. The symbolism associated with eggs is related to the increase of the sun’s strength and its effect on the Earth’s fertility. Ashkenazi Jews include roasted eggs while the Sephardic Jews serve huevos haminados; eggs that simmer for many hours until they become creamy and rich, cloaked in a beautiful tie-dye brownish color. The eggs are served in the initial course of the Passover Seder when the story commemorating the deliverance from slavery is told, as the participants dine on the symbolic foods of the holiday. Easter will be celebrated with family and friends attending services at their respective churches before convening at home with a celebration of food. Asparagus, Neapolitan style, are little individual frittatas of asparagus spears held together in a batter of beaten egg, seasonings and Parmesan cheese—a timely brunch or side dish for the holiday. HUEVOS HAMINADOS Huevos haminados are eggs that cook very slowly for many hours.This unique Sephardic dish is one of the most ancient dishes of the Mediterranean.
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 3 to 4 tablespoons olive oil for sautéing
An egg for each guest at the Passover Seder Red or brown onionskins, or both Square of double layer of cheesecloth Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 1. Place room temperature eggs in a deep, 5- to 6quart pot with a tight-fitting lid and fill the pot with water almost to the top. Place the onionskins over the surface of the water, cover with the square of cheesecloth then cover the pot. Adjust heat to the barest simmer your range can offer. Cover tightly and simmer for 6 to 7 hours, checking the water level occasionally. 2. Discard onion skins; you can rinse and reuse the cheesecloth. Remove the eggs carefully with a slotted spoon when done and serve warm or at room temperature sprinkled with salt and pepper. Note: Even with the lengthy cooking time, the eggs are tender and as tasty as a poached unlaid egg from freshly killed poultry. This was a treat that my mother saved for me. As one of five kids, perhaps this was the epiphany that led me to a career in food. ASPARAGUS, NEAPOLITAN STYLE This delectable preparation adorns the holiday spring table. Yields 10 frittata spears (one grouping per serving) 1 1/3 pounds fresh asparagus or 30 even-sized spears 3 large eggs 1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf Italian parsley 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt Freshly ground pepper 2 teaspoons lemon juice
1. Snap off the woody ends of asparagus where they bend naturally. With the tip of a paring knife, trim away the triangular scales along the spear, leaving the tender scales at the head. Rinse clean. 2. Place asparagus in a large skillet with water to barely cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add a sprinkle of salt, adjust heat to a brisk simmer and cook until tender but still firm for 3 to 6 minutes, depending on thickness of asparagus. Drain and refresh under cool running water to stop the cooking. Dry well with a clean kitchen towel and set aside. 3. Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl beat eggs then add parsley, seasonings, lemon juice and cheese. Stir to mix until thoroughly incorporated. 4. Warm 2 tablespoons oil in a 10- or 12-inch nonstick skillet and when hot arrange three asparagus spears, facing in the same direction, about ¼ inch apart. With a teaspoon pour a small amount of batter on either side of the center spear and alongside the outside spears. The batter will not run beyond the top or bottom of the spears. (If your pan is large enough you should be able to cook two of these arrangements at one time.) Cook for two minutes, turning carefully with a spatula to cook the other side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined platter to absorb excess oil. Continue arranging spears in the hot oil and spooning in the batter until all are done. Add a little more oil as needed, but be sure the oil is hot before cooking the frittatas. Can be prepared ahead and served at room temperature. Read more of Silvia’s savoringthehamptons.com

Bargains on the East End
Things Are Heating Up Across The South Fork
M
usic mogul David Geffen has reportedly bought Cody House, Courtney Sale Ross’s East Hampton estate. Listed last year for $75 million, the property’s price was reduced to $67.5 million. The estate includes multiple residences on five acres with Georgica Pond frontage. The Parrish Art Museum is presenting the third installment of Architectural Sessions—an ongoing series co-presented with AIA Peconic and moderated
by architect Maziar Behrooz AIA—this Saturday, April 12 at noon. Called “Five Minutes Max,” the series’ new format features 12 East End architects who will give five-minute presentations of 15 images for exactly 20 seconds each. The Parrish based the format of Five Minutes Max on the popular PechaKucha Night Hamptons—rapid-fire presentations from creative professionals working on the East End. According to Behrooz, the goal of the program is to create “a tapestry of presentations about architecture on the East End in a way that distinguishes local architects as experts on the subject.”
At the event, each architect will discuss a topic or theme specific to projects they have designed in the region. The featured architects include: Hideaki Ariizumi AIA and Glynis BerryAIA– Founders, Studio A/B Architecture John Berg AIA – Is Christie Brinkley selling? Berg Design Architects Bill Chaleff AIA – Partner, Chaleff & Rogers Architects Jonathan Foster AIA – Principal, nyArchitect Maxine Nachtigal Liao AIA – Principal, Maxine Nachtigal Liao Nick Martin AIA – Founder, Martin Architects Michael McCrum AIA – Principal, McCrum Architects James Merrell AIA – Principal, James Merrell Architects John Rose AIA – John David Rose Architects PC Steve Schappacher AIA – Co-Founder, Schappacher White Architecture DPC Ric Stott AIA – Principal, Flynn + Stott Architects Fred H.
