CELEBRATING THE RESIDENTIAL PARK COMMUNITIES FOR 63 YEARS

PLAN YOUR NEW YEAR’S CELEBRATION Fun and frivolity around the world and in the desert — Page 6 MIZELL SENIOR CENTER’S ‘STARS AMONG US GALA’ TO FEATURE “MICHAEL JACKSON LIVE IN LONDON”

Annual Fundraiser for Meals On Wheels Program will also feature performance by Singer Taylor Dayne Mizell Senior Center has announced that its 13th annual ‘Stars Among Us’ Gala will be held on Saturday, February 24, 2018 at the Palm Springs Air Museum in support of the Meals on Wheels program. Direct from Las Vegas, MJ LIVE! delivers the energy, excitement, spectacle, and pure joy of this legendary superstar and his music.

Taylor Dayne, best known for her iconic hit “Tell it to My Heart” performed with Jackson early in her career and will pay tribute to one of the most gifted performers of our time.

Gala tickets are $300 and event sponsorships are still available.

Co-chaired by Cyma & Leo Cohen, Carol & Dr. Ronald Fragen, and Eric A. Rudolph & Bob Iles, the Stars Among Us Gala will honor several significant supporters of the Mizell Center.

This year, Mizell holds nothing back in their efforts to transform the Palm

Springs Air Museum for an evening like no other as attendees will experience “Michael Jackson Live in London.” Previous Stars Among Us Galas have also been experiential and delivered the ambiance and excitement of the Apollo Theatre, the Cocoanut Grove, and the Hollywood Bowl.

This upbeat trip down memory lane will begin at 5:30 pm, when guests will be transported across the pond to the elegant streets of London to enjoy themed cocktails and a magnificent silent auction. Then, at 7 pm, it’s off to Central London and a recreation of the world-famous London Palladium, where they will experience a scrumptious dinner served by Savoury’s Catering. The evening concludes with the explosive performance by the large cast of MJ LIVE! “Mizell Senior Center’s Stars Among Us Gala has become one of the ‘can’t miss’ events of the season,” said Gin-

ny Foat, Executive Director at Mizell.

“While we love delighting our audiences with spectacular concerts in recreations of iconic settings, the real star of the show is our Valleywide Meals on Wheels program. The funds raised at this event provide critical support for our expanded Meals On Wheels and Nutrition Program.”

Mizell Senior Center operates the largest Meals On Wheels Program in the Coachella Valley, serving nearly 500 meals each day (more than 170,000 meals annually) to frail homebound seniors and at nine Valley senior centers from Palm Springs to North Shore Salton Sea. For many of these clients, the Meals on Wheels driver is their only contact with the outside world and critical services they would otherwise be unable to access. In addition to helping area seniors receive sufficient balanced daily nutrition, drivers are trained to recognize issues that

may be affecting their clients so that Mizell staff can refer them to available resources. The Mizell Senior Center Meals On Wheels Program is a critical component in the overall health and wellbeing safety net for area seniors.

Mizell has made a commitment that no senior in the Coachella Valley – living alone and at risk for food insecurity – should go hungry. The generosity and commitment of Mizell donors and sponsors through funds raised at the Stars Among Us Gala and through other contributions maintains Mizell’s ability to keep its commitment to the thousands of seniors it serves each year without anyone being on a waiting list.

Tickets for this unforgettable evening are $300 per person, and sponsorships are available. For information about tickets or sponsorship, call Stacy Maddux, Special Events and Development Manager, at 760-323-5689 x112.

Now Here’s a Tip

By JoAnn Derson • “Most of my large family stays at our house on Christmas Eve. Although everyone knows where everything is located in the kitchen, it has been our custom to centralize snacks, disposable cups and silverware, canned drinks and other frequently needed items in one cabinet, so no one has to go searching. We also designate a low shelf in the refrigerator for pre-bagged kids’ snacks and juice boxes. This way the children can get a drink or snack without help. The kids love it, as it makes them feel all grown up.” – R. B. in Pennsylvania • Here’s how to keep grease from building up on your range hood. First wash and dry the hood very well. Then apply a thin layer of car wax. Follow wax directions and buff off with a clean, dry towel. It will keep grease from adhering, plus leaves a great shine behind.ing for the restroom.” – Arianna B. in Michigan • “Make a holiday time-capsule full of family memories. Fill a small jar with notes and tiny mementos, then tuck it at the bottom of your holiday decorations when you box them up. Open it next season when the decorations back come out.”

–F.L. in Indiana • “I have an ingenious fix if you forget your reading glasses. Take out your smartphone and use the camera viewer as a magnifying glass. Just zoom in until the words are legible. My mom does this when she’s looking at ingredients on boxes at the grocery store.” – W.S. in Oregon • To keep precious fresh herbs usable longer, add a good quality oil to an ice cube tray. Add herbs and freeze. When solid, pop out the cubes and transfer to a plastic baggie.

• Kitty cat or puppy dog up all night wanting to play? Schedule a play session of at least 30 minutes in the evening. It will tucker them out so you can both get some sleep.

Social Security Matters

“Ask Rusty” - Social Security Credit for Military Pay Dear Rusty: I have tried to contact Social Security many times but been put on hold for over 40 minutes, received no call back, etc. Also, I tried to find out online at my S.S. account, but got no answers to my questions so I’m hoping you can help. I served in the U.S. Navy from March 5, 1951 until December 2, 1954, with an Honorable Discharge for medical reasons. Looking at my Social Security earnings statement, I never received credit for my earnings while serving in the U.S. Navy in 1952, 1953, and 1954, and for 1951 I only received earnings credit for $120. In the Veterans Administration booklet “Federal Benefits for Veterans Dependents and Survivors” the following paragraph is on page 135: “non-contributory Social Security earnings of $160 a month may be credited to Veterans who served after Sept.15, 1940 and before 1957, including attendance at service academies”. Can you check and see whether I should get credit from my military earnings, and if my Social Security check should be $160 more than it is?

Signed: Navy Veteran Dear Navy Veteran: First of all, thank you for your service to our country. Although military pay is now considered taxable Social Security income, military earnings were not included as Social Security earnings prior to 1957. This is the reason that your earnings while in

the Navy from 1951 to 1954 aren’t reflected in your Social Security earnings record, and thus may not have been included in computing your Social Security benefit amount. You can find out more about this in the Social Security publication “Military Service and Social Security” at this online link: https://www.ssa.gov/pubs/EN-0510017.pdf. I suspect that your $120 of earnings for 1951 was for part time employment prior to you joining the Navy in March of that year.

The information you quote from the VA booklet is consistent with Social Security’s publication referenced above, namely, “earnings of $160 a month may be credited to Veterans who served after Sept. 15, 1940 and before 1957...” Note that in the above referenced SS publication it also states that “In all cases, the additional earnings are credited to the earnings that we average over your working lifetime, not directly to your monthly benefit amount”. What that means is that in your lifetime earnings record, Social Security will give you earnings credit equal to $160/month during the years that you served and that will be included in your lifetime earnings record when they compute your Social Security benefit amount. It doesn’t mean they will add $160 to your monthly Social Security benefit amount. For information, when Social Security computes your benefit amount,

they use your 35 highest years of earnings (adjusted for inflation).

So if those 35 years of higher earnings used to compute your benefit were after you left military service in 1954, your years of military service wouldn’t have been part of the benefit calculation formula.

Your unfortunate experience trying to contact Social Security for these answers is an excellent example of why The AMAC Foundation offers this alternative source of Social Security information to America’s seniors. Once again, thank you for your service.

Essentially, a low-earning (or no-earning) spouse gets half of the higher-earning spouse’s Primary insurance Amount only if the spousal benefit starts at their full retirement age - otherwise it will be less than 50%. And this is why the blanket statement “a low income spouse gets one half of the other spouse’s benefit” is a very misleading oversimplification of how spousal benefits work.

The information presented in this article is intended for general information purposes only. Furthermore, the AMAC Foundation and its staff do not provide legal or accounting services. The Foundation welcomes questions from readers regarding Social Security issues. To submit a request, contact the Foundation at info@amacfoundation.org.contact the Foundation.

Dezart Performs presents award-winning play ‘The Rabbit Hole’ January 12-21

After the triumphant opening of its 10th season with the production of THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA McBRIDE, Dezart Performs continues to break new ground with its second production of the season – RABBIT HOLE, a Pulitzer Prize-winning play.

RABBIT HOLE will run January 1221, 2018 at the Pearl McManus theater in the historic Palm Springs Woman’s Club for eight gripping performances.

There will be an opening night party with the cast following the performance on Friday, January 12th.

This production will be directed by Scott Smith, who has been active both as actor and director throughout the Coachella Valley. He has appeared in several Dezart Performs’ productions including THE OUTGOING TIDE (Desert Theater League Outstanding Supporting Actor award) and CASA VALENTINA. With RABBIT HOLE, Scott will be making his directorial debut at Dezart Performs. Previous directing credits include CAMELOT, MAN OF LA MANCHA, THE FULL MONTY, and NOISES OFF (co-directed with Michael Shaw).

RABBIT HOLE is a captivating drama that stirs the emotions when a life-shattering accident turns Becca and Howie Corbett’s world upside down and leaves the couple drifting perilously apart. They both search for comfort and a path that will lead them back into the light of day. RABBIT HOLE features Deborah Harmon, Phylicia Mason, Artistic Director Michael Shaw, Yo Younger, and introduces Jonathan Hatsios.

This compelling Pulitzer Prize-

winning play opened on Broadway in 2006 and was nominated for five Tony Awards, including Best Play.

RABBIT HOLE was also adapted for a 2010 film starring Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart.

Dezart Performs will be celebrating its 10th Anniversary on Sunday, January 14th with a glamorous party at Eight4Nine Restaurant and Lounge following the matinee performance on the same day. The celebration will feature food, wine, and will be attended by theatre alumni and supporters, celebrities and city officials. Tickets are $50 and may be purchased at www.dezartperforms.org.

“With RABBIT HOLE we are swinging the creative pendulum from the lighthearted fare of THE LEGEND OF GEORGIA McBRIDE to this emotionally-searing and moving family drama,” commented Dezart Performs Artistic Director, Michael Shaw. “We believe our audiences will go along with us on this journey of exploration of the human heart.”

Dezart Performs Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m.

Matinees Saturdays and Sundays at 2:00 p.m.

Plan Your New Year’s Celebration

Fun and frivolity around the world and in the desert KC and the Sunshine Band in Concert at The Show at Agua Caliente Resort Spa, 10:30 p.m.: Harry Wayne Casey (KC) and his band will take disco kings and queens back to the funk scene of 45 years ago. The fusion of R & B, groove and Latin percussion is just as popular today as it was then, helping to define the era with hit songs like “Get Down Tonight,” “That’s the Way (I Like It)” and “Shake Your Booty.”

They still play over 100 live shows annually around the world, and KC remains a showman extraordinaire.

Tickets $75 - $95. 32250 Bob Hope Drive, Rancho Mirage, 888-999-1995, hotwatercasino.com/kc-sunshine-band.

By Alison Elsner In Germany, Hungary, Israel, Italy and Russia, New Year’s Eve is known as Silvester. In France, Algeria and Brazil, it’s called Revéillon, and in Scotland it’s called Hogmanay. The final day of the Gregorian calendar is celebrated around the world with traditions that include quiet reflection, family and social gatherings, feasting, gift exchanges, public events, countdowns and watching fireworks.

Samoa, Tonga and Kiritimati on Christmas Island are the first places to welcome the New Year while American Samoa and Baker Island in the United States are among the last.

Probably the most well-known event in the United States is New York City’s ball drop in Times Square, held since 1907. Time balls were invented so that sailors could adjust their chronometers while at sea, able to watch for a time ball to drop at a specific time. The first time ball was installed in 1829 in Portsmouth, England. The U.S. Naval Observatory followed suit and began dropping a time ball in 1845.

Today’s Big Ball weighs in at 11,875 pounds, measures 12 feet in diameter and has 2,688 Waterford Crystals that refract light equivalent to 32,256 light bulbs. Computer controls were added in 1995. Each year, at least 90,000 people gather in Times Square to watch the 60-second ball descend 70 feet and maybe give each other a New Year’s smooch, while millions watch on television.

For those who don’t want to jostle the Times Square crowds or watch the ball drop on TV snuggled up in jammies, there are lots of New Year’s Eve celebration choices in the Coachella Valley. Here are some ideas, so you’d better make your reservations or buy tickets soon: TRIO’s New Year’s Eve celebration, 5:30 p.m. – midnight: Palm Springs’ Uptown Design District’s showcase restaurant has three prix fixe dinner seatings on New Year’s Eve at 5:30pm for $59, 7:30pm for $79 and 9:30pm for $99 which includes unlimited wine and champagne. Prix Fixe starters will include Short Rib Ravioli, Lobster Bisque or Heirloom

Beetroot and Frisée Salad, and dinner entrees include Chilean Sea Bass, Surf and Turf and Blue Cheese Encrusted New York Steak. Or, just hit the Party at the Bar starting at 10:00 p.m. to enjoy unlimited wine, party favors and a midnight balloon drop, all for $29.

707 N. Palm Canyon Dr., Palm Spring, 760-864-8746, TRIOpalmsprings.com.

3rd Annual New Year’s Eve Block Party at Spa Resort Casino, 8 p.m., performance at 10:30 p.m.: Each year, revelers look forward to this outdoor celebration with top billed entertainment in downtown Palm Springs. The Plain White T’s, best known for their hit, “Hey There Delilah,” will deliver their pop, punk and rock sound along with several opening acts. Bar gardens and local restaurants will be set up, and there will be a VIP lounge with light appetizers, party favors and a New Year’s Eve lapel pin for every guest.

Standing room is pretty incredible, too, at this giant dance party. Free general admission, VIP areas or special seating $21 - $100. 401 East Amado Road, Palm Springs, 888-999-1995, SpaResortCasino.com.

Melvyn’s at the Ingleside Inn, 3:30 p.m. – 1:00 a.m.: Always a favorite on New Year’s Eve (and every other weekend night), Melvyn’s will be better than ever this year, with a fresh remodel and new ownership by the Plumpjack Group. Located within the legendary Ingleside Inn, Melvyn’s is elegant and cozy with a full menu of music and classy cocktails. Dinner includes Lobster Bisque, Seared Scallops and Petite Filet ($105 menu and $175 menu). There is no cover in The Casablanca Lounge, where entertainment all evening will feature singing and lively piano music. Arrive early to stake out your seat. 200 W. Ramon Road, Palm Springs, 760-325-0046, inglesideinn.com/melvyns-lounge.

Vicky’s of Santa Fe, 4:30 p.m. – midnight: Party hop all under one roof at Vicky’s with dinner, drinks, music and dancing. Musical entertainment by The John Stanley King Show will perform a mix of originals, R & B classics, the Beatles and even Sinatra. Guests can dance or just tap toes as the champagne flows and party favors are handed out. A snack menu and bar service will take place all evening in the lounge, and the dining room is also open from 5:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m., featuring the regular dinner menu and prices. $25 cover for lounge, no reservations needed.

45100 Club Drive, Indian Wells, 760345-9770, vickysofsantafe.com.

If you can’t quite make up your mind, maybe the best option is to go out and enjoy the action, then head home to snuggle up and watch the Ball drop on TV. You really can have it all!

Don’t Pooh-Pooh Internet Dangers

1. MEASUREMENTS: How long is a cubit?

By Matilda Charles

ANSWER TO TRIVIA

Traveling around the internet can be dangerous, even if you know what you’re doing.

One way to be safer is to understand website addresses, called URLs. A URL is the address of a webpage somewhere on the internet. It means Uniform Resource Locator, and it tells you the location of the webpage ... except when it doesn’t because it’s a fake. All it takes is one single letter to be out of place to change a safe site to a dangerous one. The thieves are hoping you don’t notice.

When you put your cursor over an address, link or graphic in your email (called a mouseover), the real address will show up.

That’s a good way to determine whether the email or website might be a scam. For example, if the email appears to be from someone you know, a different email address might show up. Don’t click it!

Some of the common URL extensions (the letters at the end of the address) are: .com, .net, .edu, .gov and .org. If you see any that say .ru, that’s Russia. One ending in .cn is China. Unless you’re certain of the email sender, don’t open it.

The beginning of a safe URL (say, a website where you do business) might have https ... the S stands for a secure site. It’s usually on websites that sell things and expect you to put in your credit-card number. The majority of these sites are safe ... except when they’re not.

If your local senior center, library or recreation department offers internet safety classes, go! The more you know, the better the odds of staying safe as you cruise the internet.

Here are some websites with good safety information: http://www.connectsafely.org/ seniors/ and www.dhs.gov/cyber-safety, or do a search for these words: internet safety for seniors.

Turning failure into success It’s called the Museum of Failure but the touring exhibition that opened in Los Angeles this holiday season is anything but a failure, says the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC].

Samuel West, a Swedish doctor who calls himself an “innovation researcher,” has put together a collection of 100 real clunkers that some of the world’s most successful companies produced and recalled over the years. And, it is attracting quite a bit of interest. It in-

cludes the line of frozen dinners that Colgate tried to market in the 1980s.

Also on display is Coca-Cola BlaK, the company’s attempt to cash in on the high-priced coffee craze in the mid 1990s. The concoction was a blend of coffee and Diet Coke with what Dr. West described as “disgusting.”

The Association of Mature American Citizens [www.amac.us] provides the Filler Files as a service on issues of concern to Americans over 50.

Hoarding paid off, big time, for this lottery ticket hoarder

Jimmie Smith of East Orange, NJ is a lottery ticket hoarder. He has old tickets going back many, many months and doesn’t check them very often. But, when a local newscast reported that a jackpot awarded

over a year ago remained unclaimed, he decided to check his cache of tickets and found the winning numbers, worth $24.1 million, says the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC].

Smith told the news service, UPI, that he’s been playing the lottery since the 1960s, but is never in a hurry to check the winning numbers. “I always told myself, ‘I’ll check them when I have the time,’” he said.

The Association of Mature American Citizens [www.amac.us] provides the Filler Files as a service on issues of concern to Americans over 50.

Recipe of the Week Kitchen Diva

By Angela Shelf Medearis

Feast on Fish at Christmas I've been reading about Christmas customs, holiday meals and traditional feasts in Europe. One of the things I love the most about studying food is the insight that culinary traditions give you into history and culture. Studying culinary traditions is a wonderful way to discover history through food.

I particularly enjoyed reading about a tradition called The Feast of the Seven Fishes, also know as The Vigil, along with several delicious recipes for preparing fish.

The fish often is used as a symbol of Christianity. Because of persecution faced by the early church, when a Christian met a stranger in the road, the Christian sometimes drew one arc of a simple fish outline in the dirt. If the stranger drew the other arc, both believers knew they were in good company.

Preparing and eating seafood on Christmas Eve in celebration of the birth of Christ is an old European tradition. Many families abstain from eating meat and serve only fish or other types of seafood on Christmas Eve. This traditional dinner is a southern Italian custom in which a meal of at least seven different kinds of seafood is served before midnight

on Christmas Eve. A typical feast features various types of fish, eel, octopus, calamari, mussels, clams, sardines, shrimp and lobster.

While researching the preparation of the seafood for this feast, I discovered a delicious recipe for Pasta with Sardines and Lemon Caper Sauce. This budget-friendly recipe is packed with flavor while using only a few, high-quality ingredients. It's the perfect dish for feeding and serving a crowd during the holidays.

Pasta with Sardines and Lemon Caper Sauce ￭ 8 ounces angel hair (capellini) or spaghetti pasta ￭ 7 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling ￭ 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs ￭ 1 package (about 4.3 ounces) imported sardines, in pure olive oil, drained and oil reserved ￭ 1/2 medium onion, minced ￭ 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced ￭ 2 teaspoons lemon zest ￭ 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes ￭ 1 teaspoon salt ￭ 1 teaspoon ground black pepper ￭ 3 tablespoons capers, rinsed ￭ 1/4 cup lemon juice, plus 3 tablespoons for sprinkling ￭ 3 tablespoons fresh parsley or basil, chopped

DEPOSITPHOTOS.COM

Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, reserving a cup of the pasta cooking water. Rinse pasta under cool water for a moment or two to keep the noodles loose. Reserve.

In a large skillet or saute pan, heat 3 tablespoons of the oil. Add the Panko breadcrumbs and toast until lightly browned and crunchy, stirring occasionally. Remove breadcrumbs to a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and set aside.

Add the remaining 4 tablespoons of olive oil and the reserved sardine oil to the pan and turn the heat to medium.

Once the olive oil is hot, add the onion, garlic, lemon zest, crushed

red pepper, salt and pepper. Cook until the onions are soft and translucent (watch carefully so that mixture doesn't burn).

Add the sardines and capers to the pan. Saute for about 2 minutes until warmed through, breaking up sardines into smaller pieces as you saute. When the sardines begin to turn golden, slowly stir in the lemon juice.

Add the cooked pasta and freshly chopped parsley or basil to the pan.

Toss pasta to evenly coat with sauce, mixing well with the other ingredients. If the pasta seems too dry, add a little of the reserved pasta cooking water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to loosen it a bit.

The pasta should not be thick or heavy, the noodles should be lightly coated with oil. Add additional salt, pepper, pepper or chili pepper flakes to taste, if desired. Top with the breadcrumbs and a sprinkle of lemon juice. Serve hot. Serves 4.

SALOME’S STARS WEEK OF DECEMBER 18, 2017 BORN THIS WEEK: You have a highly defined sense of commitment to others. You would make a fine social worker.

ARIES (MARCH 21 TO APRIL 19) Make a start on that new workplace challenge. But get more information before you find yourself too deeply involved without knowing in which direction you should go.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 TO OCTOBER 22) Avoid overtaxing yourself, even if your energy levels are high and you feel that you can do it all. Best to pace yourself so you won't run yourself down before the holidays.

TAURUS (APRIL 20 TO MAY 20) You might find things becoming tedious as your schedule slows down for the holidays. Use this time to get information about a possible post-New Year job change.

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 TO NOVEMBER 21) Your sense of humor helps get you through a stressful period. Some of your quick quips can take the edge off any remaining negativity being aimed at you.

GEMINI (MAY 21 TO JUNE 20) The creative Twin finds outlets for her or his ideas in the early part of the week. The practical Twin takes it a step further and rallies support to turn the ideas into reality.

SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 TO DECEMBER 21) Your artistic talents not only help you express yourself these days, but they also set up a line of communication between you and someone very special.

CANCER (JUNE 21 TO JULY 22) It's time to stop being intimidated by someone's negative behavior.

Start taking positive steps on your own to help strengthen your position down the line.

CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 TO JANUARY 19) It's fine to appreciate the importance of "proper form" for doing things.

But relax a bit in order to allow newcomers on the project to feel less intimidated by you.

LEO (JULY 23 TO AUGUST 22) Look closely at that so-called golden opportunity. Best to be a cautious Cat who approaches things slowly, than one who pounces without knowing where you'll land.

AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 TO FEBRUARY 18) Use your boundless reserve of optimism to persuade others to work with you to resolve a difficult workplace problem before it can ruin your holiday fun.

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 TO SEPTEMBER 22) Your apology can resolve that personal situation before it overshadows the holidays. You'll feel better, even if you're only partly to blame for what happened.

PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 TO MARCH 20) A new relationship needs time to develop. Be careful not to let your emotions flood your natural sense of caution. Meanwhile, check out that new job offer. © 2017 King Features Syndicate, Inc.

They have a lot to brag about in Texas They do things big in Texas and now they have another thing to boast about - the longest car wash in the world, according to the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC]. AMAC scans the latest entries in the Guinness Book of World Records and notes that the famed international compendium of things unusual and, sometimes, bizarre has officially proclaimed an 84-yard-long car wash in Katy, TX now holds that record. The car wash boasts a 255-foot-long conveyor belt.

The Association of Mature American Citizens [www.amac.us] provides the Filler Files as a service on issues of concern to Americans over 50.

Cinderella would blush British fashion designer Debbie Wingham has unveiled a one-of-a-kind pair of boots suitable for the swankiest of occasions and they cost a mere $15.1 million. The Association of Mature American Citizens says it is not so much the exclusive design that makes them so expensive; it's probably the gold thread used in the stitching and the flawless, three-carat diamonds that adorn the fancy footwear.

Cutie: Schnauzer , Adult, Female Hello, everyone. My name is Cutie and I’m a female Schnauzer mix who’s about 5 years old. I weigh about 12 pounds and. my coat is mostly black. My beautiful coat had to be shaved because it was so unkempt and matted. When it grows in, I’ll start looking more and more like a Schnauzer and you’ll really see how pretty I am. Even now, you can tell I’m a little cutie!…lol Cecil and I were found wandering the streets of Coachella and a very kind person brought us to Pet Rescue. Cecil is the love of my life and we must stay together; we can’t be separated because we’re so bonded, I would be very upset if I didn’t have my handsome Cecil by my side. I know he would be just as upset if he didn’t have me in his life. We need that special person who under-

stands that and would be willing to provide both of us with our forever home. Could that special person be you?

I’m a bit more mellow than Cecil and I’m also a very sweet girl who loves to be held and petted. I give kisses back when that happens and I happen to be a good kisser. You can ask Cecil about that because he knows! When no one’s looking, we like to sneak in a kiss or two!

Cecil and I hang out together all day and like to be in each other’s presence. We sometimes like to run around and have fun and play. Exercise is good for us as well as for you.

We could all take walks together!

That would be fun, don’t you think?

Please come visit me and Cecil to see if we’d all make a great team. I’m spayed, microchipped, and up-todate with my vaccinations. Looking forward to meeting you!

–Xoxo Your “Me and Cecil Forever” Cutie
