BECAUSE COMMUNITY MATTERS
Winton paving project underway By Jennie Key jkey@communitypress.com
Motorists on Winton road can expect to see orange barrels and closed lanes for the next few months, as resurfacing work on Winton Road, between Harbury Drive and North Hill Lane begins. The project affects just under a mile of Winton Road, but it’s a busy mile: there are three schools in the section of Winton being repaved. Parents who drop off students at St. Vivian, Whitaker Elementary or Central Baptist Academy may need to build extra time into their
commutes. The low bid for the project came in at about $95,000 under estimate, and the bid was awarded to Prus Construction. Work was set to begin Sept. 29. Hamilton County Chief Deputy Engineer Tim Gilday said the State Capital Improvement Program’s loan program will pay the $884,855 pricetag for this project and the loan will be repaid by the county over the next 20 years. Work includes resurfacing and curb and pavement repair and is anticipated to last until Dec. 5, depending on the weather.

Motorists should expect traffic delays due to single lane closures in the area. This resurfacing is part of ongoing work by the engineer’s office on the Winton Road corridor. The engineer’s office partnered with the City of Cincinnati in 2013 to make the improvements on Winton, beginning at Gray Road in Cincinnati north to Harbury Drive, at a cost of $5.35 million. This phase covered about two miles, and included installing new sidewalks on both sides of Winton from

residents to know it too. More than that, Hill would prefer they learn to avoid fires in the first place. As the Forest Park Fire Department’s risk reduction officer, he has been working with seniors, students, anyone who will listen to make that happen. He’s a boss at it: the Ohio Fire Marshals Office selected him as the 2014 Ohio Fire Prevention Educator of the Year to let others know how good he is at what he does. Hill has served the Forest Park community for 14 years as a paramedic and as the risk reduction officer for the City of Forest Park Fire Department and the Winton Woods school district. His fire prevention and fire safey work is excellent, according to his chief, Arvie Jones. “He does the smoke detector blitzes, making sure all our residents have working smoke detectors, and know the safety information they need,” he said. Jones says Hill also does work that strengthens families: plans and participates in Dad and

Daughter dances and Mom and Son proms. The chief says Hill is well suited for his job. He’s engaged with the community, a real people-person, Jones said. “He goes far beyond fire safety,” he said. “Jermaine looks at programs that improve people’s health, help them eat better, and works with students to combat obesity through the community’s schools. Hill recently partnered with the Winton Woods school district and launched “The Firefighter Fitness Drill” program that helps kids learn about exercise and nutrition and includes an obstacle course that simulates firefighter tasks. This program has gotten and helps the school district fulfill state requirements of having measurable activities. It does such a good job of that, it was added to their curriculum. Jones says the Firefighter Fitness Drill program has motivated students to make better choices regarding nutrition and fitness and has also proven to be an excellent recruitment tool for the city’s Fire Explorer program. Jones says Hill’s activities work toward health, he’s active in local fire and injury prevention and has created innovative public education programs that community members regularly participate. Jones says the programs allow them to play an active role in contributing to a safer community through CPR and first aid programs, health and safety fairs and men-

Greenhills seeks road levy renewal By Jennie Key jkey@communitypress.com
Greenhills is asking for a road levy and it won’t increase property taxes. The levy on the Nov. 4 ballot is the renewal of a five-year, 1.5-mill property tax for the general constriction, reconstruction, resurfacing and repair of streets, roads and bridges in the village. Municipal Manager Evonne Kovach says the levy renewal would allow the village to continue repairing its streets. The levy generates $38,028
annually that provides the part of the budget that pays Kovach for street repair and maintenance, but also helps pay for salt, and clearing snow from village streets. The money gives the village some leverage when it comes to competing for money from the Ohio Public Works Commission. Those funds, such as the State Capital Improvement Project
funds, are available to Ohio cities, villages and townships, but it’s a competitive field. Having money to match some part of the grants and loans makes it more likely that the village’s bid will be successful as it seeks state money to supplement local tax dollars, Kovach said. The levy costs the owner of a $100,000 home $18.21 annually. Since it’s a renewal, the levy won’t increase taxes if approved. “We need this money to continue providing the same service level to our

Winton Woods grad quiet leader Armelle Kudatsi was honored at the Winton Woods Board of Education meeting in April for being the Kiwanis Gold Star Student of the Month. “I would define Armelle as being a quiet leader because she does not boast about her success nor does she slack off,” said her counselor, Evelyn Gibfried. “She is hardworking, bright, determined, self-motivated and mature.” Kudatsi, Kudatsi a 2014 graduate, attended Scarlet Oaks for the last two years studying lodging management and hospitality services. She ranked 43 out of 280 seniors in her class with a 3.27 GPA. She was a recognized as a certified guest service professional and has earned a one-year certificate in hospitality and tourism management. She has also completed a 75-hour unpaid internship with the Cincinnati Marriott in West Chester Township. “Armelle does not shy away from a challenge,” Gibfried said. “ Although she has a quiet demeanor, she has taken on leadership positions in her program at Scarlet Oaks.” Kudatsi was the Ohio team captain for a year for the International Lodging Management Competition and has been a Scarlet Oaks Ambassador, a Great Oaks Advocate, a DECA member and has participated in the Girl Scouts for America. “With her school involvement and leadership abilities, it is evident that Armelle is able to maintain balance in her life. She strives to maintain high marks in school and continue to be involved. She has a passion for academic and personal success, and she will make sure that this success is an integral part of her college career.”

Winton Woods exchange students give back to the community In what is becoming an annual tradition, the foreign exchange students at Winton Woods High School participated in a project that gives back to the district and the community. Students at the school through the EF High School Exchange Year program – Lisa Grub from Germany, Marc
Engelsch from Germany and Martina Lagala from Italy – planted flowers in the area next to the football field with the group of bushes in the shape of “WW.” This is the second year that parent Ron Randolph has coordinated the three-hour service project.
“The students were all very helpful and did a great job,” Randolph said. “They even helped with the clean up phase.” Randolph’s son Jordan, a student at the Academy of Global Studies @ Winton Woods High School, help plant flowers, along with host students Joey Mayer and Lewis
Wolke and host mom Jackie Mayer. To learn more about hosting an exchange student with EF High School Exchange Year, contact Lora Wolke, international exchange coordinator for the EF Foundation, at lewolke@geistig.com or 513-8250590.
McAuley seniors part of top physics team in USA To coincide with CERN’s 60th anniversary this year, the laboratory launched the beam line for schools competition. At CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, physicists and engineers are probing the fundamental structure of the universe. They use the world’s largest and most complex scientific instruments to study the basic constituents of matter – the fundamental particles. The particles are made to collide together at close to the speed of light. The process gives the physicists clues about how the particles interact, and provides insights into the fundamental laws of nature. CERN is in Switzerland. The idea of the competition was to make a fully equipped beam line available for high school students to run an experiment in the same way that the laboratory’s researchers do. In proposals of fewer than 1,000 words, teams had to explain why they wanted to come to CERN, what they hoped to take away from the experience and give initial thoughts on how

they would use the particle beam for their experiment. They also had to summarize their written proposal in a cre-
ative and entertaining video. McAuley seniors Brianna Poli of Mason and Holly Rack of Green Township were asked by
their AP physics teacher, Lisa Nissen, to submit an experiment. They collaborated with several other area high school students from Anderson High School and Summit Country Day. Poli’s and Rack’s contribution was to actually write parts of the proposal, and the students shared all their work via an online notebook. Poli even drew up a diagram of their proposed experiment. The name of the team was “Bearcat Beam Team.” When the competition closed at the end of March, 292 proposals from all over the world had been submitted. Teams of CERN scientists then evaluated proposals based on creativity, motivation, feasibility and scientific method. Out of the 292 proposals, CERN scientists selected the top 16 and rated them “highly commended.” Of these 16 teams, only one team from the United States was deemed worthy of this distinction – the Bearcat Beam Team. The other 15 teams were from: Italy, Turkey, Singapore, Switzerland, Poland, the Netherlands, Spain, France, Greece, South Africa, Germany and Austria.

Larkin, Wolf battle in basketball 30 years ago
State-ranked St. Xavier soccer exceeds 2014 goals By Marc Hardin

SPRINGFIELD TWP. — So much
By Mark D. Motz prepsports@enquirer.com
All sporting memories are suspect – the colors too bright, the players and their feats magnified in our wishful recapturing. The surprising rally or splendid catch becomes incomparable by the time we fight free of the parking lot, epochal before bedtime, transcendental by breakfast. – Hall of Fame baseball writer Roger Angell, from “Five Seasons” Once upon a time ... All good fairy tales begin thus. Only this tale is real, if clouded by 30 years. The goal of the Glory Days series is to look back at significant and memorable moments in the Greater Cincinnati prep sports landscape and see if memories resemble the facts. In the tale of Jan. 13, 1984 – a night of basketball pitting Moeller High School senior Byron Larkin face to face against senior Jeff Wolf of St. Xavier High School in front of a hoopsmad high school freshman who admired both – they do. Then, as now, Moeller versus St. X in anything up to and including tiddlywinks was a highly-anticipated event. But when both schools have top-10 programs in a major sport, the stakes elevate that much more. The teams traded victories each of the previous two seasons. The Crusaders won 62-55 when Larkin and Wolf were sophomores, but the Bombers answered with a 57-36 win in the return game. Their junior year, St. X won 67-57 at home before Moeller replied with a 59-57 home victory of its own. By their senior year, Larkin and Wolf were widely acclaimed as two of the best guards in town. Both left-handed. Both 6-foot-3. Both good shooters, but better at going to the basket. Both on the verge of playing Division I college basketball, even though hoops may not have been their best sport.
The History
Larkin and Wolf are two of the most storied surnames names in Cincinnati sports, high school or otherwise. Byron Larkin was preceded at Moeller by brothers Mike and Barry. Mike left Moeller for the University of Notre Dame, where he was a star linebacker. Barry matriculated to the University of Michigan to play baseball; he later spent his entire major league career with the Cincinnati Reds and landed in the Major League Hall of Fame at Cooperstown. Not long before the St. X basketball game, Byron earned Parade magazine football AllAmerica honors for his senior

year on the Crusaders’ gridiron and was considering a scholarship offer to play defensive back for Bo Schembechler at Michigan. He instead chose basketball and Xavier University, where he became – and remains – the school’s all-time leading scorer. He now provides color commentary for Musketeer radio broadcasts. Charley Wolf began the story for his clan. He and fellow athletes from the class of 1944 led St. X to change its team names from Conquerors to Bombers thanks to either their their long-range passes on the football field or deep shooting range on the basketball court, depending on which version of history you care to believe. He later coached the Cincinnati Royals NBA franchise. Sons Marty and Steve followed their dad to St. X, and Jeff followed them to North Bend Road. All four are now in the school’s athletic hall of fame. A third-generation Wolf – basketball star Johnny, Marty’s son and Jeff’s nephew – will be enshrined in February 2015. Steve Wolf and Byron Larkin are media colleagues these days, as Steve calls XU basketball games on television. Like Larkin, Jeff Wolf was a two-sport star, also excelling in tennis for the Bombers. In fact, Wolf later became the city’s most decorated amateur player, winning six Met singles titles and 25 championships in doubles, many with his brother Marty.
The Buildup
On Jan. 6, 1984, Moeller lost 61-60 to Elder at the Pit. Larkin scored 17 points – eight below his average – to lead his team, which dropped to 4-4 on the season, 2-2 in what was then called the Greater Cincinnati League (since renamed the Greater Catholic League).

That same night, Wolf led St. X with 11 points in a typically plodding GCL slug fest as the Bombers beat Roger Bacon 3634. One night later, legendary St. X head coach Dick Berning won his 400th career game, a 69-31 drubbing of Summit Country Day. Gary Lauch had nine points to lead all 13 Bombers who landed in the scoring column. The win pushed St. X to a 10-3 record and had them ranked third in the Enquirer’s weekly coaches’ poll. The Crusaders bounced back from the Elder loss with a 72-64 win against neighborhood rival Sycamore Jan. 10 and came into the St. X game ranked sixth in the city. Larkin entered the contest third in the Tri-State scoring race, averaging 24.3 points per game, just behind Talbert Turner of Pendleton County (28.9) and Ricky Calloway of Withrow (25.4). In addition to Larkin and Wolf, four other future Division I college athletes were on the floor that Jan. 13, 1984. Moeller’s Vada Murray went on to play football at the University of Michigan, while Jamie Brock played basketball at Ohio University. See BATTLE, Page A7
for that rebuilding year. The St. Xavier soccer team is exceeding expectations with defense under second-year head coach Brian Schaeper, who deploys lane-sealing midfielders, an impassable foursome in the back and a college recruit between the posts. The Bombers allowed just four goals their first 10 games while taking an early lead in the Greater Catholic League standings. They surpassed their shutout total from last season halfway through the schedule, fueling a 9-2-1 start (as of Sept. 26). “In our first 10 games, we had eight shutouts. That’s a lot,” said Schaeper, returning just three starters from last season when he was named GCL coach of the year with 11 seniors. “Though I’d like to see us come up with a few more goals, I’ve been really happy with our defense.” It’s a throwback to the way St. Xavier used to take care of business in the GCL when Schaeper was a Bombers assistant and the team was yielding less than a goal per game. Last season, St. Xavier rotated goalkeepers and allowed 16 goals during the 16-game regular season. They allowed 11 goals the first six games, numbers they weren’t accustomed to, and wound up sharing the title with Elder. They finished a win short of the final 16 with a loss in the district final. Previously, when the defense allowed an average of fewer than one goal per game, an outright GCL championship soon followed. In 2012, St. Xavier posted nine regular-season shutouts, allowed nine goals and won the league outright. In 2011, they posted seven shutouts, allowed 14 goals, and had first place to themselves. In 2009, all 10 regular-season wins were by shutout, with 13 goals allowed on the way to the outright title. This season, the Bombers are surrendering an average of 0.5 goals per game. Elder, with two goals in two games, was the only local team able to score against them through Saturday. Unfortunately, for the rest of their opponents, it’s a reversion to form that they can live without. The Bombers have outscored the rest of the GCL and their Greater Miami Conference foes by an 11-0 margin. “We play a 4-4-2, and all four defensive backs are seniors, so
we’re pretty solid back there,” said Schaeper, a former goalkeeper at Moeller, Xavier University and the Cincinnati Kings. “Guys don’t like shooting against our keeper (Henry Stutz) in practice because he can make diving saves in the corners. He’s a tremendous shot blocker. He’ll call me after practice, he’s so into it.” The back four includes returning starters Jack Graves and Alex Besl, and Sam Eagan and Jack Green. Junior Zach Thomas keys the midfield. If a player finds himself with a shot, he still has to power the ball past the rangy Stutz, a quick-moving 6-foot-2 senior heading to College of the Holy Cross in Massachusetts. He’s co-captain with Besl. “Me and the defense are on the same page,” said Stutz, who was tied for first in the GCL with 25 saves. “Our first goal is giving 100 percent in every practice, and we’re taking it into games.” The Bombers are seeking at least a share of their sixth GCL title in seven years. “Our main goal is winning the GCL,” Stutz said. “But I think we’re good enough to do more. Making the state tournament is not out of our reach.” The Bombers closed the week ranked No. 8 in the state coaches’ poll against a rugged schedule, including four teams in the statewide top 20 - Cleveland St. Ignatius, Dayton Carroll, Mason and Walsh Jesuit. They went 2-1-1 against them. St. Ignatius was No. 3 nationally and No. 1 in Ohio when the Bombers took them down, 1-0, the second game of the season. “That’s what got everybody’s attention,” Schaeper said. “We just have to keep playing well, and keep scoring the way we have been lately.” The Bombers scored nine goals the first six games. They tallied 17 the next six, including four against La Salle and Fairfield, and three against Carroll and Elder, good for a six-game winning streak. Frankie Bauer, with four goals, and Drew Eagan, with three, paced the team the first 12 games. Scoring has been balanced, with 12 players accounting for the first 26 goals.

“In high school, even into college, I didn’t want to give him any respect on the court,” he said recently. “I didn’t want to let my guard down or give him an edge. We weren’t buddies, but you had to admire his game. “I just remember how easy he scored. If he was open, it would swish. If he was defended, I remember it bouncing around on the rim and going in. He had a great touch. I thought he was a finesse player, but he was really physical, a football player. He was strong and he could get to the basket.” Larkin said much the same. “I played a lot of games over a lot of years,” he

I think that’s something we both had in common. We were used to playing physical.

Wenstrup worries that reducing fossil fuel subsidies will have serious economic consequences, but global insurance trade associations are recognizing the economic consequences of unchecked fossil fuel emissions. Their data show that nine of the world’s top 10 most expensive loss events of 2012 occurred in the U.S., and globally, the number of weather catastrophes
has risen from 300 a year in 1980 to 900 in 2012. Our legislators must also factor in external costs like the risks and harms that oil and gas drilling brings to communities – the water, air and climate pollution, as well as other drivers of economic and public health problems. U.S. EPA researchers recently found that ill health caused by fossil fuels nationally costs taxpayers between $361 and $886 billion annually. There is an incredible amount of innovation going on with renewables in the US; enough to give us hope that we can win the climate challenge. But we need to elect legislators who will help us seize the opportunity to transition to clean and reliable renewable energy, not walk away from it, as Mr. Wenstrup has done. Before you vote, ask your
candidates where they stand on this issue, and whether they will pledge to provide opportunities for public dialogue among all constituents. Marek Tyszkiewicz, opposing Mr.Wenstrup in the District 2 race, was formerly a math and physics teacher, and understands both climate science and economics. He wants to help businesses reduce emissions without costing jobs. His 24 years as an actuary, helping government entities fund secure health and pension plans, prepares him well to grapple with the economic challenges ahead. Mr. Tyszkiewicz believes the climate crisis can be solved when we each do our part, and pledges strong leadership on this issue. Ruth Hardy is an 11-year resident of Anderson Township.
The dos and don’ts of recycling Recycling is one of the easiest ways you can help the environment. However, it can be a bit confusing. Here’s what you can recycle: any plastic bottle or jug, as long as the mouth is smaller than the rest of the container. Milk jugs, liquid laundry detergent jugs and shampoo bottles all qualify. Glass bottles can also go in your curbside bin or cart, including jelly, tomato sauce, pickle and salsa jars. Remember to rinse out the container and remove the lid, which goes into your recycle bin separately. All food-related metal cans are recyclable such as tuna fish, soup, fruit and vegetable
cans. Metal beverage cans, such as pop, juice and beer cans, are also recyclable. When it comes to paMichelle per, here’s an Balz COMMUNITY PRESS easy tip: if you can tear GUEST COLUMNIST it, you can put it in your recycle bin. This goes for any paper that has not touched food. Now you can recycle paper cartons such as milk, orange juice, soups and juice boxes. Remove the caps or straws and drop the empty carton into your recycle bin or cart. If you have shredded
paper from old bills or documents, put them in a clear plastic bag inside your cart to prevent littering. Now for the tricky and overlooked items you can recycle. Empty aerosol cans – just remove the tip. The empty cardboard rolls of bathroom tissue and paper towels – you can recycle those too. We all love pizza, so recycle the clean box by removing food-stained paper or cardboard linings. Here are the recycling don’ts: yogurt, butter and margarine containers. Clam shells and Styrofoam containers are not recyclable. For paper products, do not recycle paper plates and napkins or
bound books (consider donating them to Better World Books). Cooking glassware, light bulbs and broken glass do not belong in your recycle bin. When it comes to metal products, rule out metal hangers, scrap metal and aluminum foil. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to call our Recycling Hotline at 513-946-7766. You can find a complete list of what you can, and cannot, put in your recycle bin/cart or your local drop-off site at HamiltonCountyRecycles.org.

“I sincerely hope the U.S. does not send in ground troops to deal with the rapidly escalating ISIS crisis. This group of radical Islamists has raised terror, unspeakable deaths, brutality and man’s capacity for inhumanity toward man (and especially women) to a new height not seen in the world since the Nazi regime. We can and should do as much as possible to help eradicate the ISIS scourge with drones, air strikes and missiles, but that is unlikely to complete the job. The rest of the Arab world needs to step up for once and ‘police their own’ by putting their boots on their ground to complete the elimination of the ISIS vermin. Good luck to all involved.

U.S. Rep. Brad Wenstrup cites natural gas as one of the reasons why carbon dioxide emissions are at their lowest point in years. What he omits is the fact that the methane released from fracking natural gas traps 87 times more atmospheric heat than CO2, so the methane emitted in the overall production process cancels out any gains made from replacing CO2 emissions from coal. With regard to federal energy subsidies, Wenstrup points out that in 2010, tax incentives benefiting renewables exceeded those of fossil fuels. In a 2013 report, the International Monetary Fund stated that the U.S., with about $500 billion annually, accounts for more than one-fourth of all global fossil fuel subsidies.

It shouldn’t matter if it is an election year and they are afraid of how their vote will affect their chances of re-election, they are abdicating their duties and placing all the responsibility on the Executive office and then complaining when that branch takes action since they do not want to assume their Constitutional responsibilities.” C.S.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Relay For Life support appreciated
As the staff partner of this year’s American Cancer Society Relay For Life of West Side, I would like to thank everyone for their generosity and support. Thirty-three teams joined this year’s Relay For Life and raised $56,700 to help save lives and create a world with less cancer and more birthdays. I am proud of this community for continuing to stand up to cancer to finish the fight, even bringing in donations after the event was over. Fifty survivors shared their stories before walking the opening lap and inspiring those battling cancer. Our luminaria ceremony showed the community’s warmth and strength in caring for those who are no longer with us. I would also like to thank the many Relay For Life volunteers, committee members and teams who worked to make this year’s event a success.

Meal ministry marks five years By Sara Gadzala Enquirer contributor
T
here may be no such thing as a free lunch, but Trinity Lutheran Church in Mount Healthy promises a free dinner every Thursday. The Feed Your Neighbor ministry marked its fifth anniversary in September and welcomes all community members for a sit-down, restaurant-style hot meal at the church – no strings attached. “We want to be a church where people in the community know that they are welcome, where they can gather to have a Boebinger good, healthful meal and where they can also gather to get to know their neighbors,” said Pastor Todd Cutter. While anyone may attend church services at Trinity, that is not a requirement for coming to the dinner. “There’s no screening, anyone is welcome, no proselytizing or religious activity while they’re there,” Cutter said. The main goal is for people to come in for food and fellowship. Vi Mapes, who has been a member of the church since 1958, got the idea for Feed Your Neighbor from fellow churchgoer Audrey Senour. “When my husband died, I was really looking for things to keep busy,” Mapes said. “The recession was setting in, and things were getting bad, and I was reading that people were hungry, so I thought maybe now’s the time to bring it up.” Church leaders already had a commercial kitchen in place. They only needed volunteers and food. Mapes, of Hamilton, volunteers every week serving drinks. “You have to stay on the ball and make sure the coffee’s kept

up and there’s enough decaf and enough regular,” Mapes said. “Lemonade is the biggie, especially on the hot days.” She said each dinner is a collaborative effort among individuals, local businesses and restaurants and other churches who help provide meals each week. Between 75 and 120 people dine at the church each Thursday throughout the year from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., weather permitting. Cutter said $200 will cover the cost for a simple, healthful meal. Colerain Township resident Dave Miller has been a member of Trinity for 15 years. He said it’s important to give back to the community and make people feel special. Some volunteers come in only to chat with guests, which is meaningful to them. “We’re not a soup kitchen where you walk through the line, eat it and leave,” Miller said. “We try to be a little more fellowship-oriented than that.” Cutter agrees. “It makes for a different experience for people to come in and have somebody else wait on them for a little bit,” he said. Mapes said no one should have to be hungry and that, for some, this is the only hot meal

they get all week. The biggest challenge, organizers say, is providing meals. Cutter said he encourages individuals and groups to contact the church if they wish to contribute meals or sponsor meals through donations. “The Lord shines through the face of people out in the world, so if the Lord can shine through my face or the face of others through our congregation that volunteer there at Feed Your Neighbor, that’s what it’s all about,” Miller said.

OCTOBER 1, 2014 • HILLTOP PRESS • B3
Asparagus, retro salad, fabric softener on the menu I don’t know what’s gotten into me. One week I’m all dressed up being inducted in the Escoffier Hall of Fame and leafing through my recipe file to make French macaroons. The next week I’m in jeans and sandals presenting at Mother Earth News Fair and makRita ing my Heikenfeld own fabric RITA’S KITCHEN softener. Do you think I’m easily led? That’s the fun thing about food and home keeping. So many choices!
Steamed asparagus with mint and roasted peppers When I had my girlfriends in my herb group over for dinner, I chose recipes with herbs so that they could go out into the herb garden and cut what they needed. This was easy and stunning. 1 pound asparagus, trimmed & steamed until just crisp tender and then blanched 1 roasted bell pepper, cut into thin strips 2-3 tablespoons white wine vinegar 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon honey or sugar Salt and pepper to taste
3 sprigs mint, chopped or to taste 1/2 cup olive oil Lay asparagus with pepper strips on top. Whisk everything else together. Drizzle on top – delicious right away or marinated several hours.
Tip from Rita’s garden
Blanching: Just means draining asparagus after steaming and immediately putting it into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and keep the color. You can usually blanch veggies a day ahead and store in covered container in the frig. I find that when a recipe calls for a sprig, 2” or so is good. You can always add more.
Homemade fabric softener
My friend, Bert, who lives down the road in a late 1890s farmhouse, turned me on to this easy fabric softener. Lately Bert has taken to making her own clothes detergent (I shared my recipe a while back), bar soap, and she’s now gone “full tilt.” Pretty soon, I can see her making her own hand and foot creams. I made a batch of this fabric softener and really love using it. I left mine unscented, but you can always buy scented hair conditioner or add a few drops of essential oil, like lavender. It makes a huge amount and is much economical than buying
it. This is a fun project for the kids. And a teachable moment, too. Shake before using. Whisk together gently: 6 cups water 3 cups clear vinegar 2 cups liquid hair conditioner of your choice
Grandma's 5 ingredient creamy fruit salad OK, so I don’t know how long the requests for retro recipes will keep coming in, but here’s one that you may remember, too. For the fellow who chatted with me after class, telling me in the 80s, when he was a kid, he loved this salad that his grandma made. Make sure all fruit is drained very well, otherwise you’ll have watery salad. 12 oz. can Mandarin oranges, drained 8 oz. can crushed pineapple, drained 1-2 cups mini marshmallows 1 cup flaked coconut 1 cup sour cream Mix everything together well. Chill several hours before serving.
Pumpkin pointers
Our pumpkins are just now turning color. Here’s some tips on purchasing, etc. Pie pumpkins, also known as sugar pumpkins, are smaller and sweeter than the jack-olantern type and can be cooked like any member of the squash family. With all pumpkins,

select those with a firm, blemish free rind and bright orange color. Keep in a cool, dry place for up to a month. A cut pumpkin can be stored in an open plastic bag in the frig up to a week. A 3 pound pumpkin
will yield about 3 cups of cooked pureed pumpkin.
Clarification
According to Biblical scholars, the wheat I mentioned in my Sept. 24 column that was grown during Bible days was probably Emmer, a type
of hulled wheat. Rita Nader Heikenfeld is an herbalist, educator, Jungle Jim’s Eastgate culinary professional and author. Find her blog online at Abouteating.com. Call 513248-7130, ext. 356.

A rundown of upcoming Fab Friday programs at Llanfair, 1701 Llanfair Ave. College Hill, 681-4230: » “Living on the Equator,” Friday, Oct. 3, 9 a.m. to noon: For a number of years Keith and Peg Marriott lived and worked in several Third World countries close to the equator. Keith’s presentation will offer a brief background to the history and culture of these countries and will highlight some interesting journeys and events. » “Healing Touch for People and Pets, Friday, Oct. 10, 9 a.m. to noon: Hands-on healing has been a part of human development from time immemorial. “Energy healing,” as it is called today, comes in many forms. The Reiki form of energetic healing provides comfort, peace and well-being. Healing Touch for Animals strengthens the human/animal bond, helping with behavior problems, disease, and injury. Healing Touch is practiced by nurses and volunteers in many hospitals and medical settings. Hands-on demonstrations and in-depth explanations of these techniques are designed to introduce a few of the many alternative forms of energy healing available today. » “World War II in Europe – Childhood Interrupted,” Friday, Oct. 17, 9 a.m. to noon: Three immigrants to the Cincinnati area describe how growing up in Europe during WWII affected them. They will share the courageous steps their families took to keep them safe. These long-time immigrants will also inform us of how they came to the US. Peter Seifert was born in Nazi Germany. Gerda Braunheim was born in Stonischken, East Prussia – then the Communists came… » “Charley Harper’s Legacy in Print and Fabric,” Friday, Oct. 24, 9 a.m. to noon: When the self-described minimal realist passed away, Charley Harper (1922–2007) was more popular than ever. With his gentle humor on prints and posters, he had attempted to win friends for environmental protection on both local and global scales. Brett Harper, son, director, and owner of Charley Harper Art Studio, continues his father’s legacy and mission. He will present an illustrated look at nature as seen through Charley’s eyes over his 60-year career and what may lie in the future. Members of the River City Quilt Guild will share their Charley Harper–inspired quilts. » “North America on the Move: Plate Tectonics,” Friday, Oct. 31,9 a.m. to noon: North America, as we know it today, is only a recent representation of billions of years of continental evolution shaped by the forces of plate tectonics, varying sea levels, climate change, and erosion. Geologic events that occur today, such as volcanism and earthquakes, are a direct result of the varied and dynamic history of our continent. Studying the processes that shape our landscapes is important to prepare ourselves for natural events in our geologic future. Travel through time with Dr. Brenda Hunda to explore the tectonic history of North America and its relevance to our modern continent. » “Give My Regards to Broadway,” Friday, Nov. 7, 9 a.m. to noon: Take a Reader’s Digest journey through the history of Broadway musicals in three sections: the start of Broadway, 1900–1942; the “golden age” of Broadway, 1942–1967; and all the rest up to the present. » “West Side Stories,” Friday, Nov. 14, 9 a.m. to noon: Cincinnati’s West Side is alive with history. Join us for an overview of the best of Price Hill, Fairmount, Covedale, Westwood, Bridgetown, and Delhi. Find out about historic churches, iconic restaurants (think Maury’s Tiny Cove, Price Hill Chili and LaRosa’s), a park with exotic lizards (Mt. Echo), oneroom schoolhouses, abandoned railroad tracks and trolley lines, cobblestone streets, the old St. Francis/St. George Hospital, and the Price Hill incline. There are canals, bridges, cemeteries and hidden walkways from the past and present on the west side that hold fascinating stories for anyone who wants to travel slowly and stop often.

Tax receipts will be provided. Style Edit founders Brock Maitland and Marsha Ashley will also shop at St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Stores seasonally

to create a featured stylish and budget conscious look that they will share on their blog; proving that one doesn’t have to spend a fortune to look good. Neighbors in need receive vouchers from St. Vincent de Paul volunteers to shop for basic necessities like clothing at any one of seven local thrift stores, while those on a fixed income and bargain hunters can purchase inexpensive merchandise with the proceeds benefiting programs at St. Vincent de Paul. Last year, St. Vincent de Paul helped 120,000 people in neighborhoods across Cincinnati and the thrift stores provided more than $600,000 in free items to neighbors in need. All do-
nations made locally are used and distributed throughout Greater Cincinnati neighborhoods. To make a donation, visit your neighborhood St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store and Donation Center or call 513-421-CARE to schedule a free pick-up of large donations. Tax receipts are available.
