State of Illinois Ebola hotline now in operation Quinn has directed IDPH to assemble a task force to ensure residents and hospitals across the state are informed and prepared Illinois residents with questions about Ebola can call the Ebola hotline at 800-889-3931 or visit www.ebola.illinois.gov.

“Governor Quinn has directed the Illinois Department of Public Health to take every step necessary to ensure that Illinois’ hospitals, health care workers and residents are safe and prepared in the event of aconfirmed Ebola case,” Illinois Department of

Public Health Director Dr. LaMar Hasbrouck said. “Information and education are the best ways to protect yourself, which is why we’ve activated the Ebola hotline and website.”

Quinn has directed IDPH to assemble a task force to ensure residents and hospitals across the state are informed and prepared to address Ebola. The full task force will be announced shortly.

Any hospital in Illinois that follows the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s infections control recommendations will be able to isolate a patient who might have Ebola in a private room and then will be able to provide care for a that patient. A designated hospital will have staff with Ebolaspecific training, however.

The CDC recently designated Illinois as one of the few states able to perform Ebola testing. The IDPH laboratory has received the testing supplies and IDPH is in the process of validating the test and training staff to perform it.

To date, there have been no

election 2014

Two square off in Will County Sheriff’s race Neither candidate has ever served as sheriff, but both work in the department now

By Stewart Warren staff reporter

stewartwarren509@yahoo.com @stewartwarren

Two veteran police officers want to be the next Will County sheriff.

On Nov. 4, voters will chose one of them.

Neither candidate has ever served as sheriff, but both work in the department now. Mike Kelley, a Democrat from Lockport, is a detective sergeant with the Will County police who has spent 25 years on the department.

Ken Kaupas, a Republican from Shorewood, retired in 2009 from the Illinois State Police after 26 years. He is now deputy chief of the special operations bureau for the Will County police.

Kaupas is a cousin of Paul Kaupas, the current sheriff who decided not to seek a fourth term of office.

While the men have plenty of experience, they would have different priorities if elected.

Here’s a quick look at what each candidate would do in the office:

Mike Kelley Democrat from Lockport

Ken Kaupas Republican from Shorewood

Overall Goals While operating the department, the sheriff must use a budget, and the members of the Will County Board set the amount of that spending plan. In recent years, the sheriff sometimes has run out of money

and had to ask the board for more to bridge the gap.

If elected, Kaupas wants to optimize operations within the financial confines. He thinks the sheriff must find ways to work that are smarter and more costefficient.

“You have to get better at utilizing resources, and one method to do that, for example, in patrol, is to analyze crime trends and the calls for service,” he said.

The sheriff can predict when and where crimes are more likely to occur and funnel resources in that direction.

“Then you are better prepared to deal with the situations when

they arise,” he said.

During his time on the state police, the department analyzed traffic accidents, determined where they tended to happen and on which days of the week.

“On the off times, your enforcement model was to go after people who are speeding or following too closely, and in those time frames, we would saturate that area with road troupers,” Kaupas said. “We saw a dramatic decrease in the amount of crashes.”

In turn, Kelley wants to do something about the system for storing evidence. The

Pink Heals dedicates new fire truck to Kris Toborg Toborg, of Joliet, was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer in 2009

By Kris Stadalsky for the bugle

sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @BugleNewspapers

It started out to be a typical day.

Kris Toborg taught her early morning fitness class Saturday at Inwood Athletic Club like she always does.

After the class, Sandra Fleck, Joliet Chapter Pink Heals co-founder, escorted Toborg outside to the waiting crowd. Fleck told her there was to be a surprise picture shoot with the Pink Heals fire truck.

Unbeknownst to her, there was an even bigger surprise in store.

While Toborg was working, 100 or more people gathered outside of the club around the Pink Heals fire truck which had previously been dedicated in memory of Addison Locke. Across Jefferson Street, Joliet firefighters and policemen, and Will County Sheriffs’ police were lining up for a surprise procession for Toborg.

Toborg, of Joliet, was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer in 2009.

Over the next 5 ½ years, she went through 12 surgeries and many, many rounds of chemotherapy and radiation. While her breast cancer went into remission, she has had several reoccurrences in her throat, lung and hip, all which have responded well to chemotherapy.

She is currently undergoing treatment for a spot on her brain.

Outside Inwood, everyone was ushered back to the sidewalk as Joliet Fire and police cars and trucks, lights flashing and sirens blaring, began a procession past the crowd.

Next came the Pink Heals pink police car, dedicated in honor of Tina Mayle, the first pink police car in the state. Then slowly, from around the curve, came a brand new pink fire truck sporting the name “Kris” in honor of Toborg.

Tears streamed down Toborg’s face as she slowly realized what was happening. The crowd cheered and clapped, many waving pink pompons. Toborg hugged person after person, thanking them for coming. She beamed brightly as

“It’s so overwhelming,” Toborg said later on. “”There’s just lots of love, lots of friends and family.

I couldn’t have done any of this without them.”

Toborg’s oncologist, Dr. Ellen Gustafson, said her attitude would be 90 percent of the problem, so she has taken her life one day at a time, and remains upbeat through all the treatments, diagnoses and surgeries.

It was her upbeat attitude that lead the Pink Heals board to choose Toborg as the namesake for the newest Joliet Pink Heals fire truck.

Matt Fleck, husband of Sandra and co-founder of the Joliet chapter of Pink Heals, said when they heard about Toborg’s story, they just knew their newest donated vehicle should be named for her.

There were many bumps in the road getting the vehicle painted and ready for Saturday’s presentation, Matt said. Because of the short timing, they had to come up with a makeshift paint booth in a warehouse.

The wrong color pink paint was delivered and used the first time.

When the second batch was pickedup, it was the correct color but the wrong type of paint.

It was fitting that the new truck had some bumps, said Matt, because Toborg has faced many herself. “(These vehicles) almost take on their own persona of the people they are named after,” he said.

“There’s something bigger here. She (the truck) is trying to teach us to fight like Kris has. No matter what, (Kris has) never stopped, she will always fight.”

Toborg was the first to step up and sign her name on the front of the pink truck. She wrote, “Hope and Lots Love! One day at a time.

Kris.”

Then others followed suit, signing words of hope and love for Toborg or others they love who have been stricken with any kind of cancer.

Pink Heals is a crusade, said Matt Fleck, honoring all women with any type of cancer. The organization makes home visits with their procession of vehicles, bringing hope, hugs and flowers.

“We walk them up to the fire truck and have them sign their name,” Matt said.

Toborg first met the Pink Heals crew when they held a procession to her house.

When she took the microphone, Toborg told her family, friends and co-workers that it’s because of them that she will continue fighting.

“I am going to win this battle. I know I have all of you behind me,” she said.

“I got a truck,” she exclaimed.

“Who knew?”

department currently keeps it in four different locations, and that has presented problems, he said.

In the Riley Fox murder case, for example, a key item – a pair of shoes -- was stored for years at the department after the 3-year-old girl from Wilmington was murdered in 2004. But that evidence was overlooked until 2010 -- despite the fact that killer Scott Eby’s name was written inside of some prison-issued shoes that had been found near the spot where police found the girl’s body.

“We had them, but apparently we were unaware that we still had them,” Kelley said.

Consolidating the different evidence storage facilities into one location would prevent that type of glitch, he added.

Then there was the shipping container. In 2011, it was stored inside a fenced parking lot for impounded vehicles near the sheriff’s Laraway Road office. The container was being used as an evidence locker, and several kilos of heroin were inside it.

Burglars cut the fence and stole the drugs.

“Three kilos of heroin. An outdoor trailer with a padlock,” Kelley said.

“I want to change the way evidence

is handled and processed. Step one is to get a facility to store everything under one roof.”

In a related issue, he would like to see the sheriff’s Laraway Road facility improved and remodeled so all the department’s offices can be located there. County officials have a plan to do so, but are looking for ways to fund it.

Revisions Although their goals might take time to accomplish, both candidates would make immediate changes if elected.

Kelley would change the officers’ schedules.

“I want to go from an eight-hour shift to an alternate shift, a 10- or 12-hour shift. Departments our size go to these shifts because they put more cars on the street during the busiest times of our day, when we are answering the most calls,” Kelley said.

The move would employee the overall morale in the department because officers would have a threeor four-day weekend every other week.

Kaupas would change the department’s training methods.

“Right now, we rely a little too much on computer-based training

instead of more traditional models of training such as classroom or handson,” he said. “That is an issue I have heard time and time again.”

A lot of it could be done in-house, he said. “The cost factor would be very minimal.”

The adult detention facility Over the years, the Will County Jail has had its share of problems, including overcrowding, administrative issues and a troubling number of successful lawsuits filed by inmates. The two candidates seemed to be on the same page when it comes to one aspect of the jail: the correctional officers need better training.

“We have tended to overemphasize computer-based training, which works for some things,” Kaupas said.

“But there must be more hands-on training such as using verbal judo, proper restraints and in the way you handle a prisoner.”

Kelley agreed.

“The training is non-existent down there now,” he said, noting that it was caused by a lack of manpower in the facility. Changing the sheriff’s foreclosure sales to an in-house operation would save money and give the department the funds to hire more correctional officers for the jail, Kelley said.

Board approves levy, could increase property taxes Members of the Will County Board approved a $115.9 million levy for 2014-2015 budget

By Stewart Warren staff reporter

stewartwarren509@yahoo.com @stewartwarren

Next year’s county levy is set.

But that doesn’t mean the number won’t change.

The members of the Will County Board approved a $115.9 million levy for the 2014-2015 budget during their regular meeting on Thursday.

It’s roughly $3 million higher than the current figure.

That means the county’s portion of the property tax bill probably will increase next year. But it might not go up by much.

“The actual impact is $5.44 a

year for a taxpayer with a $200,000 home,” said Don Moran, D-Romeoville.

The 13-11 vote was split along party lines, however.

The Democrats voted for it, and the Republicans opposed it. Dave Izzo, R-Frankfort, and Darren Bennefield, R-Plainfield, were not at the meeting.

The levy is the total amount of moneythecountycancollectastaxes from property owners. That money is used with other revenue sources to fund operations and capital projects throughout the county, explained Steve Wilhelmi, D-Joliet, the accountant who is chairman of the

Steve Wilhelmi D-Joliet

Denise Winfrey R-Naperville

finance committee.

The levy is directly related to the county’s budget because it helps determine how much money officials will have to spend each year.

By law, the levy can only be so high.

A levy can be increased over the previous year’s actual collection -called the extension -- number by the percentage of inflation – in this case, that’s about 1.5 percent, Wilhelmi said.

There’s another factor that also can be used to increase a levy from one year to the next. County officials can also opt to figure the amount of property taxes from brand-new developments into the equation as well. And this year, the board members decided to fold that number into the levy, Wilhelmi said.

This amount of the 2014-2015 levy is the maximum allowed under state law, Wilhelmi said. But it’s also an estimate. Although the board members can’t increase the number once it is set, it can be decreased.

“If I had my guess, it probably would come down a little bit,” Wilhelmi said after the meeting.

The board members debated the levy for some time Thursday before voting on the issue. Democrats wanted to increase it to create a way to pay for capital improvements such as building a new courthouse and improving the sheriff’s facility on Laraway Road, among other projects. The Republicans wanted to find other ways to do the work, either by making cuts in the budget or using funds from the RTA tax.

Steve Balich, R-Homer Glen, said

the county should not increase the levy because it increased last year.

“People in my district will say we are raising taxes just to give public employees more money,” he said.

Denise Winfrey, D-Joliet, disagreed.

“We need the capital. We need the flexibility to look at all the options,” said Winfrey, chairman of the board’s Capital Improvements Committee.

Chuck Maher, R-Naperville, said there were other options.

“We also have more than $100 million in cash in our reserves,” Maher said, alluding to using some of the RTA tax revenues. Will County Executive Larry Walsh, who proposed this year’s budget, said he is not opposed to using some RTA funds for capital projects. But the majority needs to be spent on keeping up with the county’s infrastructure needs.

The county board must start funding the muchneeded projects, Wilhelmi said.

“We can’t do it with the existing revenue stream we have,” he added.

playoff-Bound Tigers clinch first-ever playoff appearance in win over Central

by Mark gregory spoRTs REpoRTER

mark@buglenewspapers.com @hear_the_beard

The seniors on the Joliet West football team have waited four years to make the IHSA playoffs.

For coach Jason Aubry, the wait has been nine seasons.

That is all nothing compared to the 50 years the school has waited to advance to the playoffs as West had never before qualified since its inception in 1964.

That was the case until Saturday.

With a 41-0 in over district rival Joliet Central, the Tigers earned their fifth win of the season and qualified for the IHSA playoffs.

“The thing people don’t understand is that Joliet West has never been to the playoffs – never,” Aubrey said. In 1993 and ’94 it was ( Joliet) Township and in 1976 it was Central. That is what we are fighting against.

People pull from their tradition. ( Joliet Catholic Academy) pulls

from its tradition – they go to the playoffs every year. For us, it was ghosts that were keeping us from the playoffs. But, now we broke through that and we are on our way. Now, we are starting that tradition.”

With the fifth possible win coming against their crosstown rivals, Aubry and the Tigers wanted to get out fast and not get caught in a trap game against Central (0-8), who always plays its best football against West.

“We were feeling pretty good about ourselves after the Stagg game, but we wanted to come out here and get points on the board fast and give us some confidence,” Aubry said.

The Tigers did just that, jumping out to a 34-0 halftime lead, three of those scores coming on connections between Alex Tibble and Kyle Henderson.

The two hooked up for scores of 29, 61 and 40 yards Henderson caught four passes

JCA overcomes injuries to beat Benet; moves to 6-2

By Mark Gregory sports reporter

mark@buglenewspapers.com @Hear_The_Beard

With a leader of its offense and defense on the sidelines in street clothes, the Joliet Catholic Academy football team used some offensive trickery and solid defense to a 27-0 win over Benet Academy Friday night in Joliet.

The Hilltoppers (6-2, 5-1) were without quarterback Cade Earl, who they hope will return in a few weeks and defensive back Brandon Bolek, who is lost for the season. Both were injured in a loss to Nazareth last weekend.

In Earl’s absence, JCA used a form of the Wildcat offense, or as coach Dan Sharp tabbed it the Hillcat, as running back Michael Johnson ran the double wing

offense out of the quarterback position in a shotgun formation.

The Hillmen tallied more than 250 yards on the ground on 55 carries, while throwing the ball only once all game.

Johnson had 72 yards on 20 carries, while Nick Borgra tallied 92 yards on 16 carries. Johnson and Drew Voss (11 carries, 42 yards) each had touchdowns.

Brian Bravo added a pair of field goals for JCA, hitting from 47 and 42.

“He is a cool customer,” Sharp said of Bravo. “It is great because even when we sputtered at the 35, we still come away with points, which is something in high school that doesn’t always happen.”

That pass was a 57-yard strike from senior Cameron Behymer to Harry Douglas for the final score

of the game. Behymer entered at quarterback in the final two minutes of the third quarter.

“It was good for his confidence and we need him ready. Now we have two things we can do and we will keep working at both of them,” Sharp said.

While the Hilltopper offense worked in its patch-work form, it was the defense that came up big posting the shutout against a Benet team that came into play averaging nearly 21 points per contest.

Joliet Catholic held the Redwings to just 136 yards of total offense and only six yards on the ground.

“One of things we talked about when Brandon and Cade went

‘For Grandma’ Joliet’s Carney wins sectional singles title; JCA duo take home double championship

By Scott Taylor sports editor

staylor@enterprisepublications.com @Taylor_Sports

“In honor of my grandma.”

Those were the last words from Joliet freshman Eileen Carney after she beat the top two seeds Saturday to take home the Plainfield East Sectional championship.

Carney, playing with the extra motivation, rolled through her opening rounds Friday to qualify for state and then beat No. 1 seed Nina Bertino of JCA in the semifinals and No. 2 seed Gabby Ochalik of Plainfield North in the finals to win the title.

“They are two amazing players.

I can’t believe I won, honestly,” Carney said. “I didn’t think in a million years I would beat both of them.”

The day started with a 7-6, 7-5 win over Bertino in an emotional match.

Last time i played Nina my grandma was there and she has died. So it was really important for me to win for her.

- Joliet’s Eileen carney

“Last time I played (Nina) my grandma was there and she has died,” Carney said. “So it was really important for me to win for her. It was the best I ever played. It was incredible.”

“She played great today,” Bertino said of Carney. “Props to her. She’s doing very well right now. I played my heart out and did all I could.

She just prevailed today. I came back and won third place, and I needed that. I’m proud of myself.

I had a good day. It is great to go back to state.”

Carney then took down fellow

Wedn e sday, October 22, 2014 | bug lenewspapers.com BEAT | from page 12 down was that every segment had to step up a little bit. The offense when we changed some things up a bit, they had to step up. The subs had to step up. The defense, we knew we had to come in and play our best game,” Sharp said. “That was totally what Hillmen defense is supposed to be. Hard getting, turnovers and when we turned it over they got it back for us in three downs. That is a big testament to (defensive coordinator) coach (Jake) Jaworski and his staff.”

Sharp knows that the Hilltoppers did not see Benet at its best, as the team is still dealing with the injury to senior defensive back Andrew Valadka, who has already had more than one surgery following a spinal fracture he suffered a week ago against Carmel.

“(Benet coach) Pat New is one of the best coaches there is and one of the greatest people,” Sharp said. “He and Gary Goforth, the AD, run such a class program out there. I know it had to be a tough work week for them. They played hard, but I don’t know if we got their best. It is hard coming back from something like that.”

GOLF Joliet Township golfer Trent Wallace finished tied for 22nd at the state golf meet, carding a twoday total of 152.

Lockport’s Luke Trent was tied for 53rd with a 160 total score.

On the girls side, Kayla Garritson of Lockport shot a 191 and placed 96th.

country team earned the team conference title Saturday with 30 points and also had the individual champion in the Southwest Prairie Conference.

Sophomore Ashley Tutt won the race in 17 minutes, 19.13 seconds for the Indians.

Minooka placed all of its scoring runners in the top 20 as Mackenzie Callahan (2nd, 17:26.95), Emily Shelton (5th, 17:54.85), Morgan Crouch (6th, 18:21.46) and Gabrielle Gall (16th, 19:01.11) also scored.

The Minooka boys were fourth in the SPC. Senior Gabriel Ceballos led the team, placing fourth in 15:21.75.

Also scoring for the Indians were Miguel Lomeli (15th, 15:45.65), Justin Tutt (23rd, 15:54.03), Jack Sullivan (27th, 16:11.41) and Ben Ubert (35th, 16:29.11).

“We have a great relationship,” Henderson said. “We are kind of like Jay Cutler and Brandon Marshall. He is like a little brother to me. He is so elusive and when he scrambles, I just have to get to his side of the field and get open and make a play.”

Brenton Thompson also scored on a 9-yard run for the Tigers in the first half, while Juan Hernandez fell on an errant Central snap in the end zone for the other.

The lone second-half score came on a Justin Labuhn 2-yard TD run in the third quarter.

“This is very exciting. This was something that we looked at on the schedule and looked at the

winnable games and thought we could do it,” Aubry said.

For Central, freshman quarterback Zach Wisneski finished 16-for-30 for 98 yards.

Kameron Smith caught seven of those passes for passes for 59 yards, while sophomore Darius Sanders grabbed six for 35.

Tommie Sherman gained 74 yards on 18 carries.

Defensive back Aaryss Stallings had an interception and forced a West fumble.

While West is already in the playoffs, it wants to go into the playoffs on a good note, and that would mean beating Lockport.

“I want to beat Lockport,” Aubry said. “I want to go into the playoffs with a win. Plus, 6-3 looks better than 5-4. It is great feeling, but we are not done.”

Wedn e sday, October 22, 2014 | bug lenewspapers.com CARNEY | from page 13 freshman and friend Ochalik in the championship in what could be the first of many sectional battles between the two.

“I’m so excited,” Carney said of the future matches with Ochalik.

“I love playing her. Usually she wins. I have only beaten her twice.

It is exciting to see what the score is.”

Eileen can also continue the Carney tradition of success as she follows her brothers Jack and Tom as sectional champs.

“This is the seventh sectional win in five years for the Carneys,” she said.

She will now look to carry over her momentum into this week at state, which opens Thursday in the northern suburbs.

“I have some huge momentum and I’m really excited,” Carney said. “I am excited to see how Gabby and Nina do, too, because I know they will go far. I hope to win two matches.”

The JCA duo of Maddie Bauer and McCoy Hutchison won the doubles championship at

Plainfield East.

“It is really cool after getting second last year to win it this year,” Hutchison said. “We always want to improve.”

The sophomores will be making their second trip to state.

“It feels great,” Hutchison said.

“This is obviously our goal to always get to state.”

“It is a good accomplishment,” Bauer said. “We’re really excited to see what we can do out there this year. Hopefully we can do better than we did last year.”

Now that they have a year of experience, they have higher goals than they did entering state last year.

“We have higher expectations this year,” Hutchison said. “We hope to get a few more wins. We learned that state is a lot more competitive than the regular season. It is a lot harder, but it is fun.”

“We want to go through the brackets and see how far we can get with some of the new strategies that we have,” Bauer said. “We worked a lot together

in the offseason and made a good improvement.”

Bertino, a junior, is making her third trip to state and her second playing singles.

“I have high expectations for the state tournament because I had a good regular season,” Bertino said. “I hope to make top 32. I’m really excited. I like the way I am playing. I have improved a lot from last year.”

The Angels took home their first sectional title since 2009, edging out Plainfield North 25-23.

“We haven’t won a sectional in a while, so it is great to win it this year,” Bertino said.

Minooka’s freshmen doubles team of Grace Thelo and Gabby Hadjduk qualified for state, finishing fourth.

•Lockport won the Lincoln-Way East Sectional Saturday.

Katarina Samardzija won the singles title, while Tomi Jo Mansel and Hana Khatib took the doubles title for the Porters. Misa Coladipietro and Hailey Bruining finished third and also qualified for state.

Time to buy your dream car You’ve worked your butts off to the point that $10,000 is nothing in your world point that $10,000 is nothing in your world. It’s like most people buying dave says a biscuit for breakfast. I mean, a www.daveramsey.com @DaveRamsey purchase like this doesn’t even move the financial meter.

Dear Dave, Remember, there are I’m in college, but I’m three things you can do with not the typical college money — save, spend and student. I’ve gone back to give. You’re in an incredible law school after working position here, so there’s no for several years. My reason not to have a little wife and I have followed fun. You’ve earned it. Now, your plan, and we’re you might have to open completely debt-free. Dave Says advice by your own practice when I’m cash flowing school, money dave ramsey you’re through. I remember and we’ve been fortunate the Fiero, and owning enough to build up about $2 million in investments. The other something like that might make you day I saw what I consider to be a unemployable …

I’m kidding, of course. But you collectible car I’d love to have — a 1988 Pontiac Fiero that’s in excellent guys have done a fantastic job.

You’ve been smart with your money, condition for $10,000.

Should we wait until I finish and now there’s nothing wrong with having some fun and buying a little school, or is it okay to buy it now?

Rick toy.

Congratulations, Rick!

Dear Rick, —Dave Wow, I’m impressed. You guys are in great shape. You’re totally debtAsk for expectations free, cash flowing law school and you have $2 million sitting there. Dear Dave, My advice? As long as you’ve got the I loaned some money to a good cash on hand, and it won’t hinder friend recently. He’s going to help me your college plans, your lifestyle or with a job I’m working on, so do you come out of your investments, buy think I should pay him for the work the car! or just forgive the debt instead?

You’ve worked your butts off to the Charlie By dave ramsey

Dear Charlie, The big question is whether or not you’ve already agreed to pay him for the work. Another is how he views the situation. In his mind, he may just be helping a friend and looking at it as he still owes you the money.

If you don’t already have an agreement, my advice would be to ask him what his expectations are.

Just talk to him, find out what he’s thinking and figure out what seems fair to you both. The big thing at this point is that you’re on the same page. If you have already agreed on a certain amount, and the value of the work is pretty close to the amount you loaned him, you might talk to him about the possibility of knocking out the debt that way. He could work off the debt while helping you on this project.

There’s really no right or wrong answer to this question, Charlie.

However, I would recommend not loaning money to friends or family in the future.

Still, brunch can present a cornucopia of vegetables and another problem. Brunch recipes shreds of lean ham.

One of my favorites of the sometimes tend to be heavy, by wolfgaNg Puck

brunch bunch was a recipe for incredibly tender, rich, flavorful muffins based on a mixture of old-fashioned rolled oats, nonfat yogurt, a couple of eggs, and frozen raspberries. Here, I’m pleased to share with you a variation of that treat using, instead, widely available frozen blueberries.

For easier brunch preparation, you can partially prepare the batter the night before, up to the point at which you combine the egg and oat mixtures. Then, just over an hour before guests are due to arrive, add the flour-baking soda mixture, spoon the batter into paper-lined muffin cups, and bake.

You and your guests will be happily surprised by these very satisfying muffins, in which only just a little more than a third of their calories come from fat, significantly less than many storebought muffins. Round out your brunch menu with a low-fat egg dish and a salad of fresh seasonal fruits, and you’ll have a delicious menu everyone will welcome-all the more so for coming away from the table feeling they’re entering the holiday season on a healthier footing.
