Home Furnishing Store Moe-seys TO A NEW LOCATION AT LAKE LORRAINE

oe’s Home Collection joined the family of retailers at Lake Lorraine back in 2017, filling one of the spaces in a building along Marion Road.

It was a new venture at the time for Tamara and David Dettler, owners of You’ve Been Framed, which is located at The Bridges at 57th. They had been

purchasing items from Canada-based Moe’s for that store and liked the company so much that they became the first U.S.based Moe’s licensee.

While the Dettlers knew that two businesses would keep them busy, they were drawn to the Moe’s company philosophy, which emphasizes the

importance of “home” as more than just a structure. Rather, a home is a place that can reflect beauty, comfort and personality, as well as provide shelter and safety.

Over the past two years, they have enjoyed the opportunity to share Moe’s “design made simple” approach, which is evident in the layout of the store. Using a “pod” approach,

Moe’s Home Collection at Lake Lorraine 2512 S. Lorraine Pl. 605-275-6637 info@moeshomesd.com Facebook: moeshomesiouxfalls Instagram: @moeshomesfsd www.moeshomecollection.com

customers can easily find coordinating pieces, whether their style is sleek and contemporary or more cozy and traditional.

At the same time, they were watching the continued growth at Lake Lorraine, with the addition of national retailers like Marshall’s, HomeGoods, and DSW. And, there was also the major relocation of

Hobby Lobby from its long-time home on 41st Street to Lake Lorraine.

As the Dettlers watched foot traffic grow over on the east side of the development, they knew that would be a great place for Moe’s. So, they made the decision to move into the newest retail center located just south of Hobby Lobby.

Known as The Shoppes at Lake Lorraine, the entire center features more than 33,000 square feet of space right along Interstate 29. The new Moe’s Home Collection occupies about 4,600 square feet. It was certainly no small undertaking to make the move to the other side of the lake, but change can be good, as the

etc. for her | April 2019 9

Dettlers know from their other businesses.

Whether they are looking at fashion, jewelry, furniture or home accessories available at You’ve Been Framed or Moe’s, the Dettlers understand that trends are always changing. It is essential to stay upto-date with colors, styles and customer interests. Their social media pages are filled with pictures showing different room

set-ups that can help a homeowner start to gather ideas, and that can make the in-store shopping experience a little less overwhelming – because there is so much to see at Moe’s.

Moe’s also has a team of designers in the store, offering personalized services for home builders, independent interior designers and for individual homeowners.

The designers can also help with home staging if you’re getting ready to sell.

With spring finally arriving, the Dettlers know that will bring more people out to the Lake Lorraine shops. And, as the entire area continues to develop, they are excited for the opportunities people will have to shop, dine, or just “Moe-sey” around the 33-acre lake.

For Community, Nothing Beats Kayaking Competitions in South Dakota

BY JARETT C. BIES, FOUNDER, SOUTH DAKOTA’S BEST RIVER RACES LLC

I

t’s not news to note kayaking continues to gain followers. The calm, exploratory qualities of this pastime make it a great fit for folks who want a little fitness variety.

Many paddlers have stepped beyond “a day on the lake” paddles to competitive kayaking on the Missouri River. In 2010, the South Dakota Kayak Challenge started bringing participants from across the state and around the country. Last year, almost 170 took part in this 72-mile adventure race that starts in Yankton, S.D. and ends in South Sioux City, NE. A few years later, the Fort to Field 50 Paddle Battle began on the Missouri between Pickstown and Springfield, S.D. Both events bring paddlers whose motivations vary greatly, but who all enjoy the river’s natural treasures.

“There are many people with many reasons for racing,” said Sioux Falls native Kati Albers, 33, who has participated in almost 20 races on the river, both in her home state as well as in Missouri.

“Some want to top their class, while others just want to finish.

While they are races, the competition has always felt friendly and it helps push you.”

Like Albers, Renee Begnoche of Jefferson, S.D. went from leisure kayaking to racing. The lifelong athlete said she dove in because it was a stimulating challenge.

“I’ve done sports my whole life, and these races give me chances to get better and compete,” Begnoche said. “I like peaceful time on the river, but I love the people I have met at races. They become like a family.”

Canoe and kayaking races are more common in the eastern U.S., with events large and small. Some races are giants – the MR340 draws thousands who paddle from Kansas City to St.

Louis – and some are just a few miles.

Like anything new, kayak races can bring both anxiety and reward.

“When I did my first kayak race, (the South Dakota Kayak Challenge) I was insecure in my ability, but from pre-race checkin to the finish, people participating were incredibly welcoming and helpful,” said Sioux Falls paddler Rachel Preheim, 29. “I quickly learned there are all levels of paddlers. Some want to win and others, like me, enjoy the challenge of completing the race and improving on your time.”

Preheim has completed both of South Dakota’s longer Missouri races. She said helping hands and words of encouragement make newcomers welcome.

“There’s a sense of camaraderie; you’re all in the same event, on the same day, so that connection is organic, and it’s pretty special,” she said. “I enjoy the atmosphere and the race adrenaline, too.”

All three women encourage newcomers to racing to try it, but to beware of the addictive nature of the sport. Albers went from a 72-mile event to one that stretches 340 miles; she has upgraded her gear and boats over the years as well.

“I’d tell people considering it just to go for it – you can race in the same boat you use to cruise around your local lake,” said Albers.

“Reach out to racers on social media or the event’s organizers.

They will give you some pointers if you’re just starting out.”

Begnoche said race-day is great, but the preparation is half the fun.

“The river channel changes every year. I love going out in the spring to scout it with others,” she said. “I didn’t have the skills I do now back when I started. And I have friends from all over the country now, too.”

The Short, Happy Career of the Very First

“Public Enemy Number One”

BY RON ROBINSON

Part One [The following account is based on information gleaned from the Argus-Leader coverage of March 6, 1936.

The dialogue has been fabricated on the basis of those reports.]

A

lice Blegen, an employee of Security National, heard shouting in the lobby of the bank and thought at first that it was somebody fighting. She shoved the door of the consultation room open to look and was confronted by a man with a Thompson submachine gun.

“Git your mitts up and face the lobby,” the man shouted. He wore a gray fedora pulled down over his forehead, and a dark overcoat over a pin-striped suit and tie.

Alice gasped and raised her hands quickly. So did other bank employees and customers around her.

“Get your asses into the lobby,” the armed man yelled. “Move.”

They filed quickly into the lobby.

Some of the other ladies in the group were sobbing and shaking, fearful they would all be killed. Others were huddled by the check desks in the middle of the room.

An alarm bell started clanging, and one of the armed men began cursing using variations on invective that Alice had never heard before. “Who was it?” he yelled.

“Who set off that damn alarm? Nobody’s gonna say? How about I kill all of you then? Who wants to be first?” Nobody volunteered, and the man teetered on the brink of mass murder before someone called him from the back of the bank and he reluctantly gave up and started back to help gather bills.

HISTORY

Alice saw other men scooping greenbacks out of the tellers’ cash drawers and stuffing them into canvas bags. There must have been five or so in all. The alarm bell continued to clang.

“Chicken feed,” one of the men snapped. “Let’s get to the real dough.” He motioned with his weapon toward the president of the bank, China Clarke. “You. Open up the cash chests.”

Clarke, with his hands in the air, started to move toward the cashier cages.

The shorter gunman met the president at the gate with his machine gun at ready. “Don’ try anything funny,” he said, “or I’ll—-“ He was interrupted by a commotion on the north side of the bank.

The little gunman sprung up onto a chair and then to the top of a desk. He crouched and started pumping spurts of bullets through the heavy plate glass window. The sound was deafening. “Got one” the diminutive gunman croaked. He swung around, holding up the Tommy gun and smirking. “Don’t nobody else get any ideas.” He looked like a doll, Alice thought, or a child dressed like an adult.

He was shorter by a head than she was.

“How about opening the main vault, while you’re at it,” a dark-haired man with a pencil-line mustache told Clarke. He gestured with a heavy automatic hand gun.

“I-I can’t,” Clarke stuttered. “No combination — time lock — set for noon.”

The man with the hand gun cursed.

“Okay, let’s get what we can, then. Move.”

Time passed as though in a dream. Alice felt frozen at the still center of a roaring hurricane. Finally all of the bystanders were formed into a circle around the

etc. for her | April 2019 25

bandits and together they oozed out through the broken front doors to the east; the original entrance. There was a dark green automobile; a large Packard sedan that looked brand new, parked by the curb. The crooks threw their loot into the car, then the man with the mustache started picking out individuals. “You, you, you!” Alice, already shivering in the cold air, tried to shrink, tried to make herself invisible, but it was no use. “You” — he jabbed his handgun toward her. “Get over here. We’re going to take a little ride.”

There were five women hostages in all, and one man. The gangsters piled into the car and ordered the hostages onto the running boards, but there wasn’t enough room for all. One of the women was waved away. Alice wasn’t the lucky one. Besides her, those that remained were Mildred Bratwick, Emma Knabach, Mary Lucas, and Leo Olson. The human shields clung to the vehicle, shivering in the cold, which was near freezing. The gangsters held them tightly as the car roared away.

It hadn’t gone far when there was a shot and the engine started smoking. The car ground to a standstill and the men started swearing and yelling at each other. Finally the one with the mustache told everyone to shut up and ordered the man at the wheel to drive on. Alice held on tight as the car picked up speed, going south on Main, emitting clouds of white smoke.

The women cried out as the car veered west on 13th, south to 29th, west again to Minnesota, and south once more. The gunmen let the Olson off by the WNAX gas station. “Goodbye, Shorty,” the darkhaired bandit said, “We don’t need you any more. The rest of you get inside.” Even though they were squeezed together, Alice rubbed her stiff fingers, grateful to be out of the cold. Acrid body odor was heavy in

the air and they were piled on top of each other, but it was still better than freezing to death.

As they sped on, the gangsters spread roofing nails behind them. They must have had some effect. Their pursuers fell further and further behind. Finally the Packard slowed and the driver turned the vehicle crossways in the middle of the road and parked.

The gunmen flagged down another car, an older black Dodge, ordered the driver out at gunpoint, and piled inside. “Bye-bye girlies,” one of the gang said. The black car kicked up gravel as it took off toward the east.

Overcast skies provided neither sunlight nor solace. Alice huddled with the others, trying to keep warm.

“You know who I think that was,” one of the women said, The others stared at her. “Dillinger,” she said. “Not the short one. That was Baby Face What’s-his name.

But the one with the little mustache. John Dillinger. I’ll bet anything it was.”

The name John Dillinger still resonates so loudly that it is easy to forget that his prominence in the public eye lasted only a bit over a year. “Get him DEAD or alive,” the wanted posters read. His continued existence would have been too great an embarrassment for the law enforcement

community as a whole and for J. Edgar Hoover in particular.

Dillinger had bad choppers on the lower right side which gave him a perpetual slanted aspect which could be taken as a sneer. He had “guts” as well, no doubt about it. But his real contribution to criminal activity might be better characterized as ingenuity, salted with a bit of luck.

Dillinger’s Sioux Falls job came three days after his first escape. He’d been incarcerated at Crown Point, Indiana, in a facility billed as “escape-proof.” But escape he did, brandishing a convincing fake wooden weapon that had been smuggled into the cell. For weeks afterward, letters addressed to “Clown Point” were dutifully delivered to the facility.

The Sioux Falls robbery initiated a string of bank heists that netted the Dillinger gang an estimated $500,000, which today would be the equivalent of $312,500,000.000 in buying power. Right, $312.5 million, and in just over a year. Combine that with Dillinger’s audacity, and it’s easy to see how he rose so quickly to celebrity. And how he fell so quickly, as well.

[Next month: How Dillinger met his end, and what long-term repercussions resonated from his short time in the public eye.]

the finishes and moving into a new house every few years.

That’s the nature of the business, says Annie Terveen, whose husband Mike is in construction. The same process that brings all of the excitement can also bring challenges.

The Terveen family has been in their current home for about 18 months, choosing a new development at the southern edge of the city. In fact, their house was one of the first built in the neighborhood.

“It was strange at first, because there really wasn’t anyone else around,” says

Annie. “But over the last year, several homes have gone up, and more families are moving in, which is great for our kids.”

Even with the neighborhood growing, a pond that lies in the area creates a comfortable amount of space between homes, so residents can enjoy their neighbors

and still enjoy the feeling of nature.

“We love sitting out on the deck in the summer and watching the waterfowl that visit the pond,” Annie says.

They chose the lot location because it was a new development and is close to a school, which is great for their

three children, Lucy (7), Tyson (6) and Jack (3). Other features they wanted as they prepared to build included a spare bedroom, a home office, and just a little extra “family space.”

Annie says that while it is fun to start from scratch and design a house the way you want

etc. for her | April 2019 31

it, there are also moments of panic.

“You start looking at cabinets, and countertops, and paint and flooring. You think you know what you want, and you lay it all out, and then you wonder, ‘Will this really work together?’”

But, she adds with a smile, that it was “surprisingly easy” for her and Mike to agree as they made decision after decision. In the kitchen, for example, they had already picked their wire brushed wood flooring and the granite for the countertops, so when they went to Schoenhard’s Custom Cabinetry, the color and finish selection were much easier. They settled on a cream color with a mushroom glaze, and finished it off with gold hardware. The glass tile backsplash applied in a diamond pattern has a metallic sheen that complements the cabinet’s hardware.

The mudroom off the kitchen was built with enough room to hold lockers for coats and family “stuff” as well as built-in kitchen pantry cupboards. Annie says that while she wasn’t sure at first about including a

half-bath in the space, she soon discovered it was incredibly useful for a family with kids (and a new puppy Oliver, who joined the family last November).

The floor plan in the main space of the house is open and bright. The glass door out to the deck, kitchen window and the two long windows flanking the living room stacked stone fireplace bring in plenty of natural light.

They also went with a light wall color

and grey stone for the fireplace, which makes it easy to match furnishings and accessories, says Annie.

When it came to choosing light fixtures, she says they looked for ideas and were able to find what they wanted online.

“That did add another moment of panic when those boxes arrived,” said Annie. “We were nervous opening them to see if the fixtures arrived in one piece and whether they would look the way we imagined

them to be in each room.”

All of the family bedrooms are on the main level and provide comfortable space for everyone. Annie says she appreciates Mike not only for his knowledge of the entire home-building process, but also on a more personal level because (she says with a smile) he sacrificed an extra stall in the garage to provide more space inside the house.

This is the first time their daughter has had her own room, having previously shared a room. So, this room is all “girl,” with the pink stripes on the wall, painted

by Mike, and a lofted bed with a slide to the

floor and space to hang out underneath.

Next door, the two boys share a room, and they picked green for the stripes on their wall. Where Lucy’s room has hooks with princess dresses and pompoms, the boys have hooks with superhero and soldier outfits. The boys also have a cool bunk bed set-up, with the top shelf looking a little like a treehouse with a window to peek through.

The spacious master bedroom features a tray ceiling with dark wood beams, weathered wood furniture and enough room to add a pop of color with an orange chaise lounge chair. Annie says this floor

plan provided the couple with a “big upgrade” in their master suite, which also has a large walk-in closet, Jack and Jill vanity and a unique backlit granite wall inside their walk-in shower.

Another thing they learned after moving in is that they had some big areas of wall space to fill. In the living room, they chose artwork comprised of three colorful canvas panels. On the wall going down the stairs, they added sturdy wood floating shelves that hold a collection of family pictures and other artwork.

“When you have a lot of wall space, it can leave you wondering what to put there,”

Annie says. “We didn’t really have anything specific for the wall going downstairs, so the shelves were a fun idea.”

In the lower level underneath the pool table and bar area, the couple chose a custom epoxy finish on the cement floor, giving it a grey swirled look. The bar area features darker cabinets from Schoenhard’s and stacked stone with an arch over the sink, creating a cozy pub feel.

Annie says that Mike had a hand in decorating this area, with fun touches like license plates from the Bahamas and the phrase “It’s 5 o’clock somewhere” spelled out in license plate letters.

The other half of the family room is carpeted, with comfy furniture for movie nights. They added the guest bedroom and home office in the lower level, which certainly does not have a “basement” feel thanks to the garden level windows.

Another benefit to building in this location, says Annie, is the outside environment.

“It’s so quiet out here,” she says. “When you are right in the middle of Sioux Falls like we were before, you just become accustomed to the noise of the city. We didn’t even think about the noise until we got out here – and it wasn’t there any more.”

And now, just as they are finally settling in to their house, the couple is already thinking about the next building project, which will likely be starting soon. In fact, their current house will probably go on the market this spring.

“The upside is that you can take the lessons learned from one building project and tweak them for the next one,” Annie says. “With the kids being school age now, that will be something we have to think about as we think about building locations. It can be bittersweet to build a house we like and then leave it, but home is really just wherever we are together.”

y nearly every measure, this was a brutal winter. Too much snow, too much cold, melting too fast, flooding too much.

According to the calendar and the television weathermen with freakishly perfect hair, the first day of spring (or the vernal equinox, as they pompously refer to it) happened on March 21. But as far as I’m concerned, the first signs of spring have little to do with dates on the calendar or seeing the first robin; to me the season begins when the first tender stalks of asparagus push through the newly- thawed ground. I will be there when they show up at The Food Co-op even before the farmer’s markets open. Then, and only then, will it truly feel like spring. (For those of you checking your calendars for signs of spring, the Falls Park Farmer’s Market opens May 4 this year.)

I know people who travel the back-roads and byways to carefully protected and undisclosed locations each spring to pick stalks that grow in ditches and around abandoned farm houses. Armed with a pair of garden shears, a plastic bag and good sense of direction (or a maybe a GPS) they return each year to clip their prize. Although I really like asparagus, I have never been lucky enough to stumble upon one of these hidden patches of green goodness. And those who know the location of the growths aren’t sharing.

Once you’ve located fresh, tender asparagus it is versatile, easy to prepare and the humble stems can brighten up anything from salads to pastas to risottos. The most common preparation is steaming gently; the kitchen supply stores will even sell you a special tall, skinny pot made just to steam the spears while keeping the tops out

of the water. But since spring also brings the beginning of grilling season, that’s were much of mine will be cooked.

Asparagus, when steamed or lightly stir-fried has a sweet and grassy taste. But roast or grill those same spears and the flavor becomes much richer and nuttier. Just be careful not to let them get too charred or they get a little bitter. My all time favorite is to wrap bundles of asparagus in thinly-sliced prosciutto. If they are pencil-thin, I’ll put 5 or 6 in a bundle, if thicker I’ll wrap 3 stalks at a time. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle on some freshcracked pepper (the prosciutto brings the salt) then grill for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. If you do it right, the bundles will stand up like proud little soldiers on the edge of the plate. And that, in my humble opinion, is just about as good as a vegetable ever gets.

A flowering perennial, asparagus is a cousin of onions and garlic. And while the onions make you cry and the garlic will give you foul breath, asparagus has its own downfall; it makes your pee smell funny. Some claim it doesn’t affect them, but scientific studies have shown it happens to all of us — but some just can’t smell it. My parents thought I was nuts when I mentioned it, but my sister backed me up. So much for the scent and sensitivity being genetic. At first I thought it was just me. Then the so-called Naked Chef Jamie Oliver mentioned it on TV. Aha! I thought; I am not alone. Not alone indeed. A little research uncovered an abundance of references in science and literature. French novelist Marcel Proust once wrote that the vegetable “transforms my chamber-pot into a flask of perfume.” I wouldn’t call it perfume,

but Proust was known to be a bit flowery.

Asparagus isn’t the only thing that appears only in the spring; morel mushrooms and ramps (sometimes called wild leeks) are even more prized springtime treats. A few specialty stores like The Food Co-op and Look’s will occasionally get fresh morels and ramps. Don’t be shocked when your see the price… these little morsels can be expensive. Despite the cost, when they come in they will likely disappear fast, so you’ll want to sign-up for email alerts or watch their Facebook posting for their arrival. I’ve been known to leave the office early and change dinner plans when the first of the spongy morel mushrooms arrive, simmering them gently in butter, served atop a medium-rare ribeye.

The rare little honeycomb-like mushrooms are notoriously hard to cultivate, but they grow wild in wooded areas throughout our area.

Consequently, if you’re a brave soul, you can find your own under oak or elm trees in shelterbelts or parks. But don’t bother asking where to find them, morel hunters will take their favorite hunting spots to the grave or pass them down like cherished heirlooms.

Ramps occasionally show up in Sioux Falls stores, years after they became the darling of East Coast menus. If you’re lucky enough to find a few of the pungent, garlicky shoots I recommend sautéing in a little bacon fat until they just begin to caramelize.

That will tame the garlic taste and bring out the natural sweetness.

That, my friends, is just this side of heaven.

We must enjoy the sweet stalks of spring while we can. The local asparagus will be around for only about six to eight weeks before it fades from the stores and markets, only to be replaced for Yoifuyou r Facan by bundles from far away lands. The ramps, mifind ly, them c t A i v r e hegone before u o L Y i f willTbe that and the morels are the most finicky of esytle and them all. If you don’t hunt for them yourself, you may only get one or two chances to pick them up. But once spring gives way to summer, we’ll turn our attention to the tomatoes and sweet corn that thrive in the summer heat, and while those are, I’m begging to miss spring already.

5 STEPS

BY RICCARDO TARABELSI

T

here seems to be a five-step process for just about anything‌ Laundry: Load, Wash, Rinse, Spin, Dry. Subway: Bread, Meat, Cheese, Vegetables, Sauce. Learning: Dilemma, Question, Evidence, Decision, Evaluation. Change: Awareness, Desire, Knowledge, Ability, Reinforcement. Even the writing of this article requires five steps! Invention, Drafting, Revising, Editing, Reflecting. And as I reflected on this article, I noticed a pattern that we all experience when engaging a five-step process: the first step is always the hardest or is the most time consuming. It makes sense though, doesn’t it? In winemaking, there are five general steps that eventually lead to the bottled fermented juice we enjoy with dinner, but the first step is always the hardest, and, often, the most important.

Making wine is an art form; however, did you know that wine can be created without even touching the grapes? Wine can spontaneously result from a series of events: a bunch of grapes fall to the ground, gravity presses the grapes, and the natural yeasts in the skins of the grapes begin the fermentation process, and,

42 nest |

VINO

voila, you have wine. Mother Nature provides everything that is needed to make wine; it is up to humans to augment, enhance, improve, or totally decimate what nature has provided, to which anyone with extensive wine tasting experience can attest. The one main ingredient that is vital to creating a wine, or for any five-step process for that matter, is passion.

There are five basic components or steps to making wine: Harvesting, Crushing and Pressing, Fermentation, Clarification, and Aging and Bottling. Undoubtedly, one can find endless deviations and variations along the way. In fact, it is the variants and little deviations at any point in the process that make life interesting. The steps for making white wine and red wine are essentially the same, with one exception. The making of fortified or sparkling wines is also another matter; both require additional human intervention to succeed.

The Harvest Harvesting or picking is certainly the first step in the actual wine

making process. Without fruit there would be no wine, and no fruit other than grapes can produce annually a reliable amount of sugar to yield sufficient alcohol to preserve the resulting beverage, nor have other fruits the requisite acids, esters and tannins to make natural, stable wine on a consistent basis. For this reason and a host more, most winemakers acknowledge that wine is made in the vineyard, at least figuratively. In order to make fine wine, grapes must be harvested at the precise time, preferably when physiologically ripe. A combination of science and old-fashioned tasting usually go into determining when to harvest, with consultants, winemakers, vineyard managers, and proprietors all having their say. Harvesting can be done mechanically or by hand.

Many estates prefer to hand harvest, as mechanical harvesters can often be too rough on the grapes and the vineyard. Once the grapes arrive at the winery, winemakers will sort the grape bunches, culling out rotten or under ripe fruit before crushing.

The work week is starting to look a lot better.

Now at WineTime on Main, every Tuesday is Half Price Bottle Night on select wines, and every Wednesday is Flight Night!

We’ll cheers to that!

Crushing and Pressing Crushing the whole clusters of fresh ripe grapes is traditionally the next step in the wine making process. Today, mechanical crushers perform the time-honored tradition of stomping or trodding the grapes into what is commonly referred to as must.

Sometimes, winemakers choose to allow fermentation to begin inside uncrushed whole grape clusters, allowing the natural weight of the grapes and the onset of fermentation to burst the skins of the grapes before pressing the uncrushed clusters.

Up until crushing and pressing the steps for making white wine and red wine are essentially the same. However, if a winemaker is to make white wine, he or she will quickly press the must after crushing in order to separate the juice from the skins, seeds, and solids. By doing so, unwanted color (which comes from the skin of the grape, not the juice) and tannins cannot leach into the white wine. Essentially, white wine is allowed very little skin contact, while red wine is left in contact with its skins to garner color, flavor, and additional tannins during fermentation, which of course is the next step.

Fermentation

Located in downtown Sioux Falls across from the Washington Pavilion.

Fermentation is indeed the magic at play in the making of wine.

If left to its own devices, must or juice will begin fermenting naturally within 6-12 hours with the aid of wild yeasts in the air.

For a variety of reasons, many winemakers prefer to intervene at this stage by inoculating the natural must. This means they will kill the wild and sometimes unpredictable natural yeasts and then introduce a strain of yeast of personal choosing in order to more readily predict the end result. Regardless of the chosen path, once fermentation begins, it normally continues until all of the sugar is converted to alcohol and a dry wine is produced. Fermentation can require anywhere from ten days to a month or more. The resulting level of alcohol in a wine will vary from one locale to the next, due to the total sugar content of the must.

Once fermentation is completed, the clarification process begins. Winemakers have the option of racking or siphoning their wines from one tank or barrel to the next in the hope of leaving the precipitates and solids (called pomace) in the bottom of the fermenting tank. Filtering and fining may also be done at this stage. Filtration can be done with everything from a course filter that catches only large solids to a sterile filter pad. Fining occurs when substances are added to a wine to clarify them. Often, winemakers will add egg whites, or other compounds, to wine that will help precipitate dead yeast cells and other solids out of a wine. These substances adhere to the unwanted solids and force them to the bottom of the tank. The clarified wine is then racked into another vessel, where it is ready for bottling or further aging.

Aging and Bottling The final stage of the wine making process involves the aging and bottling of wine. After clarification, the winemaker has the choice of bottling a wine immediately, which is the case for Beaujolais Nouveau, or he or she can give a wine additional aging as in the case of Grand Cru Bordeaux or big Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Further aging can be done in bottles, stainless steel or ceramic tanks, large wooden ovals, or small barrels. The choices and techniques employed in this final stage of the process are nearly endless, as are the end results. However, the common result in all cases is wine.

KNICK KNACKS OF LIFE

Remembering Abby

BY LURA ROTI

T

wo beagles on the animal shelter’s website introduced me to Abby.

When I arrived to meet them, I walked into the kennel room and instead of two bubbly beagles, there sat one shaking, black and white cocker spaniel.

She was surrounded by kennels of large, barking, lunging dogs. Her eyes begged me to rescue her. Abby’s eyes were blue - the prettiest color I’d ever seen – with a hint of violet. I led her into a room set aside for meet and greets, and knew she was for me.

As I filled out the paperwork, a shelter staffer shared what they knew about her background. They thought she was twoand-a-half years old. They let me know

issues – Abby was the most mellow, sweet and happy pet we could ask for. She loved to go on walks, play fetch and snuggle with her stuffed yellow lion.

And, although she lived with us a good three years before our daughter Parker made our family complete, she was extremely kind to children. In fact, if she saw children when we were on a walk, she would whine – actually, whine – and pull the leash to greet them.

When we did bring Parker home from the hospital, Abby immediately wanted to meet her. So, I unwrapped her tiny baby, bare feet and Abby sniffed, then licked Parker’s newborn toes.

that she had been mistreated. And, the employee handed me two bottles of ointment; one for her ears and one for a rash on her stomach. A red flag went up.

You see, my dad is a veterinarian, so I asked if I could have our vet check her out before we finalized things.

Our vet looked her over and said that it was common for cocker spaniels to have ear issues and the skin issue was from being left in an unclean kennel. Overall, he said Abby was healthy.

I took her home, gave her a bath and for the next 11 years, Abby was my shadow.

The vet’s prediction was not correct.

However, aside from chronic ear and skin

She was never jealous of the baby that completely stole my heart. In fact, she loved the new opportunity for table scraps.

Parker’s booster chair was the perfect height for Abby to pilfer at will.

If I turned my back for one moment, she would stand up and help herself to the homemade baby food I’d painstakingly prepared. Parker thought it was hilarious.

Abby also loved Judy, Parker’s honorary grandma, who came into our home to care for her from the time she was nine months old until Kindergarten. In fact, when Parker went to Kindergarten, Abby behaved a bit depressed, because Judy didn’t come to visit her each day.

Abby’s one flaw was her scent. Because of her chronic ear or skin issues, even weekly baths didn’t control her stink.

Prescriptions didn’t work. Essential oils didn’t help. It was especially bad on road trips. Because she was so mellow, we didn’t kennel her. Instead, Abby shared the backseat with Parker. It didn’t take too long before we’d have to crack a window regardless of the weather.

In her early years, Abby proved to be an excellent watch dog. If we were gone, she’d spend her time looking out our bay or upstairs windows waiting for us to return.

If someone happened to walk by, her bark let them know our family was protected.

Even though we and our veterinarian did all we could to control her ear infections – including an ear canal surgery – the infections were incessant. We realized she’d lost her hearing when we returned home, walked in our back gate and saw Abby waiting by our front gate.

I called to her. No response. It wasn’t until I touched her back that she turned around to excitedly greet us. We decided it was time to invest in a home alarm system.

About the time she lost her hearing, I noticed her sniffing for us. If we were out, in addition to looking out windows, she would stand at the register sniffing. Shon

said one day, when I was at a meeting, she stood at the bathroom vent sniffing for me the entire two hours I was away!

About a year ago we noticed Abby’s energy levels had changed. She rarely played with her lion and she began shaking – a sign she was in pain. So, I began giving her pain pills twice a day. Then, she developed other aging issues, so I added more pills to her twice a day peanut butter regiment. When it became apparent that we could no longer control her pain, we made a painful decision.

It was the first time I’d had to make this decision. Throughout my 39 years, I’ve always been fortunate enough to love a pet. And, when the time came, they passed away when I wasn’t home.

At least this time I got to say goodbye.

We waited until after school on a Friday.

Parker and I snuggled Abby. We gave her

all the foods she loved but her special diet didn’t allow. We cried. We talked about how Abby’s home in Heaven would be under an apple tree so she could eat all the apples she wanted. Abby LOVED apples.

Judy came over to say goodbye. We all hugged and cried together, and then made the sad journey to the vet clinic.

We all miss our Abby.

The day after, I mentioned to Shon that it hurts so much to lose a pet that I wondered why we always get another one.

Honestly, I knew the answer. Pets bring so much joy to our lives. Their loyalty, affection, fan-like excitement when we return from retrieving the mail or a long work trip, is unique. They make our days and lives richer. I know we will welcome another pet someday. Right now, though, we’re spending some time reflecting on the good times with our Abby.

anibel Island is a true island escape. Quiet and low-key, it is famed for its breathtaking sunsets, vast array of seashells, historic lighthouse, and beautiful resorts. The island’s main thoroughfare, Periwinkle Way, is home to several restaurants, shops, and lodging opportunities. It is the perfect stretch to enjoy a bike ride while stopping at the

quaint mom and pop shops along the way.

Visit She Sells Seashells and find that perfect souvenir, endulge in the handmade Sanibel Krunch original Italian ice cream at Pinocchio’s, and enjoy delicious local fish and seafood at Timbers, all while taking in the picturesque horizon along the street.

Also located on Periwinkle Way is the

the J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge occupies half of the entire island, or over 6,400 acres. Approximately 2,800 acres of the refuge are designated by Congress as a Federal Wilderness Area.

It conserves and enhances the wildlife habitat of Sanibel Island, and protects endangered species, as well as crocodiles, alligators, and over 245 species of birds — both migratory and residential. The refuge is best known as one of America’s greatest places to visit for bird watching.

The Visitor & Education Center features interactive exhibits on refuge ecosystems, migratory flyways, and a hands-on area for kids. Visitors can also drive, hike or bike through the 4-mile Wildlife Drive, and enjoy one of the three trails that can be accessed from there, including Indigo Trail and the Wildlife Education Boardwalk, Shellmound Trail, and Wulfert Keys Trail.

The 90-minute guided tram tour is also an exciting way to view the refuge.

Today, Old Town’s village shops, restaurants, and inns are a part of a walking and biking tour to “yesteryear”, produced by the Sanibel Historical Society.

On every surface you will find an abundance of seashells, which are the island’s main claim to fame. Searching the long stretches of sand, beachcombers take part in the “Sanibel Stoop”, which is what locals call shelling. Bowman’s Beach is the most popular attraction on Sanibel Island, known for its unusual shells. Shell hunters can identify their pickings at the Bailey-Matthews Shell Museum, where you can learn about any sea treasure you found on the beach, as well as from around the globe. The museum features just a few exhibits, such as the Sailors’ Valentines, the Shell Classification Wheel, and the life-size models depicting what life was like for the Native Calusa Floridians that once lived in the area. There are several restaurants located about a mile away on Bowman’s Beach Road.

Sanibel’s little sister island, Captiva, is on the other side of Blind Pass Bridge, which separates the two isles. Captiva Island is another quiet spot with beautiful shorelines and impressive dining options, and gorgeous views of romantic sunsets along Captiva Beach.

Sanibel Island is part of ecosystems which make up the 10,000 Islands of The Everglades. For more of an authentic backcountry Florida experience, Reel Kind Fishing & Tours offers shelling excursions, fishing charters and so much more in the Ten Thousand Islands all the way south to Chokoloskee Island in Everglades National Park. These tours are all guided by trained professionals who are also United States Coast Guard Captains as well as Florida Master Naturalists. They know where to go for unique seashells, dolphin sightings, and remote fishing holes.

There is something for everyone in the family to enjoy on Sanibel Island, so don’t hesitate to plan a visit!

ust picture 75 or 100 years ago, being told to imagine a world where a handheld device could connect you to everyone on the planet. Or that you could instantly know what is happening across the world without leaving your home.

What was once fantasy has become our current reality. Now, we are at a similar place today with genetics: genetics is improving every aspect of life.

Genetics provides many answers about what makes something unique and what makes it similar to everything else that exists. Living things are made up of cells. Within a cell is all the genetic information, called DNA, that makes the living thing itself.

DNA is a complex molecule guiding

HEALTH & WELL-BEING

growth, development, function and reproduction. This genetic information is written as a code of instructions. How the code is written determines everything about the living organism – appearance, behavior, survival, health and more.

By understanding genetics we can use some of its tools to make life better for all.

Here are four ways genetics is improving everyday life.

“The revolution in genetics – with regards to health care – has helped us understand more about the causes of diseases. That simply means we can find ways to prevent disease, to limit its negative health effects and to help individuals plan a healthier life. And hopefully in the near future, we will even be able to treat such inherited disorders.”

and so on; all features determined by the animal’s own genetics.”

2. Space “All the attempts to go further, to travel to the moon or Mars, the material that is collected is sent to be tested for any traces of genetic material reflecting life,” says Dr. Shaaban. “Scientists are trying to determine what materials are on other planets, if there are the correct organic materials for life to exist, or how such material can be used to help humans and our planet.”

3. Forensics and missing persons DNA is one of the most essential assets at a crime scene, providing insight into who was there before, during and after a crime. Advances in science have led to precise techniques that mean more can be learned from smaller samples of DNA. Regardless of whether it is recent evidence or an uncovered body that is hundreds of years old, a small tissue sample provides amazing answers about identity, health, even lifestyle.

4. Health care Just like in forensics, health care can use DNA to discover a patient’s inherited disease risk, drug interactions and more.

Combining this information with the patient’s family history, personal history and other non-genetic risk factors can help plan a health map for a patient with the hope of improving health over a lifetime.

1. Agriculture Humans have been engineering life for thousands of years. Through selecting what animals or which plants breed with one another, humans have been strengthening useful traits and removing weak ones.

Humans in past generations simply did not understand the science behind what was occurring, not until humans discovered the code of life, or genetics.

“Genetic engineering plants can make

them resistant to diseases or to certain viruses or fungi that can kill off an entire crop,” explains Dr. Shaaban. “It can also make them resist harsh weather conditions or droughts and can also increase crop production.”

She continues, “When farmers are selecting the best bull to breed, they are genetic engineering. They may not think about it that way, but the animal is selected because it looks the best, is the strongest

Dr. Shaaban concludes, “The revolution in genetics – with regards to health care – has helped us understand more about the causes of diseases. That simply means we can find ways to prevent disease, to limit its negative health effects and to help individuals plan a healthier life. And hopefully in the near future, we will even be able to treat such inherited disorders.”

s d i K r o f Crafts

BY JESS WEISCHEDEL

Spring Flower Cork Craft Materials: Paper, cork, paper towel, paint, popsicle stick, paper plate, and a glue stick.

Instructions: First, paint a popsicle stick green and let it dry. Next, glue the stick to a piece of paper. This will serve as the stem of the flower. Next, pour out some yellow paint onto a paper plate. This will be the color for the center of your flower. Choose 3-4 more colors of paint to pour out onto the plate for the petals of the flower, or you can choose all one color if you would like. Next, dip your cork into the yellow paint and press it down above the popsicle stick onto the paper. Then, wipe your cork with a paper towel so the paints don’t mix, and dip it into another color for your petals. Press down around the yellow center until you have a full flower with petals. Let dry, and have your child decorate the rest of the paper with things that remind them of Spring!

FOR KIDS

Fuzzy Caterpillar Materials: Green paper, pom poms, scissors, double sided tape, marker, and googly eyes or eye stickers.

Instructions: Cut a leaf from green paper. If making several caterpillars, estimate the size of your leaves according to the number you want to create. Decorate your leaf using a marker, then add some double sided tape to the middle in the shape you want your caterpillar. Add pom poms on top of the tape, squishing them down so they stick to the leaf. Next, add eyes to the end of your caterpillar using glue or stickers. You now have an adorable fuzzy caterpillar! To add to this craft, read The Very Hungry Caterpillar

by Eric Carle, and practice counting the pom poms and making different patterns with them.

3D Hot Air Balloon Materials: Five colors of paper, black marker, scissors, toilet paper roll, string, glue, and scotch tape.

Instructions: Draw the shape of a balloon on each piece of paper, then fold them each in half. Cut out the shapes as equally as you can. Next, glue the pieces together, creating a 3D effect. Cut a toilet paper roll in half, creating the basket for your balloon. Next, tape some string on opposite sides of the inside of the paper roll, then tape the other ends of the string to the bottom of your balloon. Decorate your balloon with smaller shapes cut from your colored paper, stickers, or any other decorations you and your kids can think of. Using more tape, add some string to the top of the balloon, creating a loop so you can easily hang it where you’d like to. When hung outside, it will spin in the breeze!

Materials: Glue, scissors, black marker, ruler, construction paper, googly eyes.

Instructions: On green construction paper, draw the shape of a leaf and carefully cut it out. If doing multiple snails, estimate how much room you have for the number of leaves you need and size accordingly. On another color of paper, use a ruler to draw a long, skinny rectangle shape, with a snail’s head at the top. Again, size accordingly depending on how many snails you want to make. Cut these shapes out once you have drawn all of them. Have your child decorate the paper snail while it is still flat. Next, roll up the snail shape, starting from the end that doesn’t have eyes. This is the part that the kids really seem to enjoy. Next, decorate the paper leaf, then glue the snail onto the middle of it. Glue on some googly eyes, or draw them on if you’d like. You can make these as small or as big as you want to, and create an entire snail family.

Restore Love to Prevent Bullying

ith only moments to spare before your children get home, you peel oranges, pluck grapes from the stem, grab the baggie of cut celery from the refrigerator, and dump the colors on a set of plates.

The door opens and closes. You hear feet shuffling across the floor and then scurrying up the stairs. One comes into the kitchen for a snack, while the other has disappeared into his room. Again.

“When children are bullied, they may begin to show indirect signs if they do not report it,” said Tomas Holtberg, PhD, LPCMH, QMHP, a behavioral therapist with Avera Medical Group. “They offer reasons to avoid school and display behavior

changes in the home. In some rare cases, they might come home with bruises.”

Bullying is the act of engaging in any behavior designed to demean or intimidate someone physically, mentally or emotionally.

While the reason why a child becomes a bully is an individual matter, experts have pointed to a couple of possibilities why the child is inflicting cruelty on another: 1. Bullies are trying to maintain popularity or a social status among peers.

The individual preys on another child that he or she perceives to have a lower social

status among the other children.

2. Bullies are frustrated over a bad hand they were dealt. They feel entitled to take it out on other children when there is discord within their own family, snags with teachers, or a personal issue, such as an eating disorder, learning disabilities or insecurity.

If you are concerned your child is a bully, look for the following signs: defiance, irritation, withdrawn, isolation or quick to anger. It’s easy to view these types of children as evil, but they’re hurting as well.

In many cases, parents find out their child is being bullied — or IS the bully — by receiving a simple phone call from the

It’s easy to view these types of children as evil, but they’re hurting as well. school. Understandably, you may be quick to defend your child, the bully or the bullied.

“Many parents believe bullying should be handled by the school alone,” said Holtberg.

“While the school is partly responsible, the most effective place in preventing a bullying problem is in the home.”

Remember, parents are teachers, too. And here’s some encouragement: parents are in the position to be some of the best teachers.

These tips can empower children to become good friends, peer advocates and respected adults: • Encourage children to have an open

mind. Both the potential bully and victim will look at each other as a human being with thoughts, feelings and talents.

• Form a line of communication. Kids want to be heard. Listen to everything — the mundane to the incredible days at school. If something bad is occurring, the child is more apt to share.

• Be the change you want to see in the world. “If you model kindness, respect and empathy in the home, this vastly reduces the chance a child will become a bully,” said Holtberg.

At times, parenting can feel like the most difficult job in the world. However,

it’s the most rewarding job as well.

Abandon the old thinking of “my kid didn’t start it; but he/she will finish it.” Restoring love in the schools and on the streets begins with parents choosing to love their children unconditionally in the home.

A newly published book by Avera and Children’s Home Society, “A New Norm,” is intended to touch the lives of children, adolescents and even adults who suffer from depression and related mental health conditions. It can help foster meaningful conversations between parents and their children, and within families, youth groups and classrooms. To learn more or to order a book, go to Avera.org/new-norm.

Angry Cookie

by Laura Dockrill Cookie has woken up on the wrong side of the bed and is very angry. You want to know why?

Well, you’d have to keep reading to find out, but now Cookie’s calling you annoying and telling you to mind your own business. If by chance you do stick around, you might hear about a certain roommate’s terrible musical skills, why you should never let your barber try out a “new look,” how it’s impossible to find a hat that fits a cookie, and why an ice-cream parlor that’s out of your favorite treat can be a source of desolation. Then there’s the matter of a hungry bird who tries to snack on you. . . . Propelled by quirky humor and woes that every young child can relate to, Angry Cookie suggests that sometimes the best way to cheer up a grumpy lump is simply by being there — and lending your ears.

Grumpy Duck

by Joyce Dunbar Duck is in a very grumpy mood. The pond is dry, and she doesn’t want to roll in the mud with Pig, sing with Rooster, doze with Tortoise, eat laundry with Goat, or join any of the other animals in their pastimes. To make matters worse, the gray cloud that’s following Duck is growing bigger by the minute, and now her friends are feeling gloomy as well. What will it take to cheer them all up? Two prolific picture-book creators look to the skies for a humorous tale of not-fairweather friendship.
