SPIRIT OF GIVING Zionsville students show holiday compassion

By Sara Baldwin Schatz and Heather Lusk sara@youarecurrent.com Throughout Zionsville Community Schools, students and faculty perform seasonal community services.

HELPING HANDS Although some clubs encourage students to donate time to worthy causes year-round, the holidays can give service projects special meaning.

Sponsoring needy families For the last five years, the Zionsville Community High School Key Club and National Honors Society have co-sponsored a family from Hattie B. Stokes Elementary School in Lebanon at Christmastime.

Seventy-five percent of the students at Stokes Elementary receive free or reduced lunch. The school has a food pantry and provides dinner and tutoring for its students.

“Sometimes the families just want a good Christmas for their children and sometimes they have individual needs,” said Cathy Busick, a ZCHS English teacher and NHS and Key Club sponsor.

The students choose gifts for the family based upon needs. They purchase, wrap and deliver them to Stokes Elementary Principal Kelly Sollman, who then gives the gifts to the family.

Key Club, an extension of Kiwanis International, organizes charity events throughout the year, including a trick-or-treat UNICEF fundraiser in October and filling Operation Christmas Child shoeboxes in November.

NHS is a special club for ZCHS juniors and seniors with a 3.6 GPA or higher. Students must be recommended by teachers, coaches or other sponsors to be considered for the club. Club members are required to partake in at least 10 hours of community service or more each semester.

Seasons of Sharing ZCHS Student Council supports a different charity each year during the holidays, or organizes an event that will benefit others.

Students council calls the initiative Seasons of Sharing.

“This year we decided that the So Big Mountain House would be a great organization for us to choose,” said Sophia Phan, student cochair for the event.

So Big Mountain House in Whitestown is the first maternity house in Boone County. It helps women who are homeless or in volatile situations get back on their feet during the first year of motherhood.

So Big provided a wish list that included items for the residents as well as general needs for the house. The students worked within a committee-approved budget to buy the items.

Student council conducts a number of fundraising activities throughout the year, including the annual homecoming dance, and sells items such as class directories and class T-shirts.

“That money keeps us afloat throughout the year with different projects,” said Amanda Harmon, a ZCHS social studies teacher and student council sponsor.

The students shopped for items such as children’s clothing, shoes, games and books.

For the mother, they purchased clothing, books, a spa experience and household items.

“We loved the idea of getting wish lists from the mothers and being able to make their holidays special,” Phan said.

Students wrapped the gifts in early December. Phan and co-chair Claire Kennedy delivered the items to the home.

“Giving the gifts was so fun because it was really special to be able to meet the residents and feel like we were making a difference in their lives,” Phan said. “It made us and our committee feel like we really fulfilled the epitome of the holiday season, which is giving back.”

Young makers help Eagle Four third-graders at Eagle Elementary got a taste of entrepreneurship after creating a company to raise money for the school’s library media center.

Greer Hanlon was inspired to create the

business, Stress Co., after participating in a school project last year to create a product and sell it to classmates. Elliott Keating, Kate Plassman and Ella Sepiol joined her in the project.

The girls presented a business plan to the school principal to sell their homemade items during the school book fair.

Each student was in charge of a different aspect, with Hanlon specializing in one type of stress ball, Sepiol focusing on slime and Keating in charge of marketing and creating posters. Plassman helped create rice-filled stress balls. They experimented with stressball prototypes.

Stress Co. sold 90 stress balls and 70 cups of slime and netted $200, which funded four chairs and seven books for the library.

The students agreed that by working together they discovered each had different strengths and skills to contribute to the business.

“We also learned a lot about economy and money,” Greer said.

Sepiol said they were challenged to find the right price point for their stress balls and still sell their inventory.

“I learned a better way to make a profit,” she said.

Stress Co. students are already planning to expand with additional products next year but haven’t decided what to create. They said they couldn’t do it without supportive families and teachers.

The donated chairs and books are in a corner of the library with a sign noting the silent reading spot is courtesy of Stress Co. Eagle’s media specialist Susan Ottinger was impressed that the girls wanted to support the school.

“This is why I do what I do because they care and it makes a difference to them,” Ottinger said.

Boone County representatives talk business in Japan

By Kelsey Musick news@currentzionsville.com Boone County Economic Development Corp. executive director Molly Whitehead recently returned from a week TRAVEL in Japan with Boone County Councilor Elise Nieshalla.

Boone EDC Director of Marketing and Communications Kim Heffner said residents are often surprised to learn that six Boone County companies have headquarters in Japan, including one of Zionsville’s newest firms, Nitto.

Whitehead and Nieshalla visited Nitto and spent most of their time learning about the company’s business in the aerospace and automotive industries.

“Nitto’s facility in Zionsville primarily serves as a distribution center. However, Nitto is involved in many different types of industries,” Whitehead said. “We focused much of our conversation with them on how we can help them build relationships and how we can educate them about our community and region.”

According to Whitehead, there are many reasons for Boone County officials to visit its Japanese companies’ headquarters. Most importantly, it is a relationship-building

opportunity.

“We want the company executives to get to know us individually and as a community, to build trust and to become comfortable doing business in Boone County,” Whitehead said. “We also want to share our story with our existing companies and with the (business) prospects we had the opportunity to meet with while in Japan. Finally, we want to problem-solve with our companies.”

Gift giving is a large part of Japanese culture. Each time EDC officials visit Japan, they bring gifts from Indiana.

Boone EDC worked with AJ Schnell Woodworks to bring custom Boone County coasters as gifts.

Santa Breakfast raises $3K for schools, nonprofits

The event had a capacity of 225 people and sold out.

“The event went very well thanks to all of the support from the restaurant owners and merchants that have partnered with Tri Kappa year after year,” said Rae Hostetler, a member of Tri Kappa since 2012. “They seem to enjoy this as much as our members. The smiles on the kids’ faces mean so much to all of us.”

Cricket’s sticky wicket Commentary by Ward Degler I always thought a sticky wicket happened in croquet. Like when your ball rolls behind your neighbor’s car and you can’t see the goal but you hit it PLAIN TALK anyway and it careens a half-mile down the street.

Apparently, a sticky wicket happens in the British game of cricket. Cricket is the second-most popular sport in the world, behind soccer.

According to the mostpopularsports.net, there are an estimated 2.5 billion fans of cricket. Compare that with the paltry 500 million American baseball fans. I always pictured cricket as a dignified tea-andcrumpets affair punctuated by mild applause when things went right and a barely audible gasp when they didn’t. It appears the excitement level has been understated.

Cricket is played on an oval field that is up to 500 feet in diameter. It has only two innings — one for each team. In baseball, outs are easy and runs are hard. In cricket, it’s just the opposite. There are 10 ways to strike out in cricket, but five of these have happened less than seven times in the entire history of the game.

Runs are scored in several ways. The bowler throws the ball from one end of the 60-foot pitch to the batsman at the other end, bouncing it once on the round. If the

batsman hits the ball, he can run to the other end of the pitch and back to where he started. That scores a run. At the same time, there is a second batsman at the other end of the pitch and he runs back and forth in the opposite direction, scoring a run each time. They can keep running back and forth scoring runs as long as the ball is rolling around on the field.

If the ball rolls outside the boundary of the field, it’s four runs. If it leaves the field as a fly ball, it’s six runs. And, of course, the batsmen keep running back and forth.

The record books mention one game where the ball lodged in a tree, and the batsmen scored 267 runs.

Behind the batsman are three sticks pushed into the ground. They are called stumps. On top of them sits another stick called a bail. The bowler’s objective is to knock down the stumps or dislodge the bail. The batsman’s job is to keep that from happening.

Oh, and when the bowler throws the ball and it bounces crazily after it hits the ground, that is a sticky wicket.

Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife. He is the author of “The Dark Ages of My Youth ... and Times More Recent.”

Boone County Sheriff’s Office memorializes fallen officers

By Sara Baldwin Schatz • sara@youarecurrent.com For many of Boone County’s law enforcement officers, 2018 has been a tough year.

In March, the Boone County Sheriff’s COVER STORY Office lost one of its own when Deputy Jacob Pickett was gunned down in Lebanon while pursuing a criminal on foot. Pickett, a 34-yearold Zionsville resident, was the first officer in the county to be killed in the line of duty since 1935.

For Pickett’s family and co-workers, the wounds are still fresh. Since March, the community has mourned him and held several fundraisers to support his family. Public Information Officer Chris Burcham said there have been other recent tragedies across Boone County, including a doublemurder suicide in Zionsville Sept. 21.

“The hits just keep coming this year,” Burcham said.

Dispatch Officer Lydia Edwards, seeking a way to remember Pickett during the holidays, was inspired when she read about a police department in Texas that used tree ornaments to honor fallen officers. She said she felt the BCSO could do something similar.

“I said, ‘OK, I’ll pitch it to the sheriff,’” Edwards said. “We got (the tree) up in 24 hours.”

The 9 1/2-foot tree features 145 ornaments, one for every American law enforcement officer killed in the line of duty in 2018. Each ornament has the officer’s name, rank and end of watch date, hand-written by BCSO staff members.

When the tree was first erected in early December, it had 137 ornaments. Eight officers have been added to the list in less than one month.

“We’re all very close here. We’re a family,” Senior Dispatch Officer Mike Gideon said. “Every officer across the nation is our family, too.”

Chaplain Andrew Ramey said the tree is a symbol of hope.

“Christmas is a story of self-sacrifice,” Ramey said. “Ultimately, Jesus gives his life for the good of the world. These officers gave their life for the good of the community, to keep us safe.”

Gaining momentum

Once the tree was up, community members began taking notice. After receiving national media coverage on Fox News, the tree drew more attention.

A Dec. 13 Facebook post made by Fox News contains a video about the tree. It has more than 177,000 views. The post also was shared by Franklin Graham, son of evangelist Billy Graham, and received more than 63,000 Facebook likes, comments and shares.

“I had no idea this would touch the hearts of people the way it has,” said BCSO Chaplain Joni Scott, who helped decorate ornaments and put up the tree. “Anything that brings people together as a community and helps comfort the families of the fallen officers is always a worthwhile venture.”

The office received numerous emails, texts and phone calls thanking it for honoring officers and receives approximately two requests per day from police departments nationwide, requesting photos of their fallen officers’ ornaments.

The BCSO plans to mail the ornaments to their respective police departments at the end of the year.

“This hit home this year for us with losing Jake,” Gideon said. “It’s our way of paying tribute to all the fallen officers nationwide. We want them to know they are in our prayers and thoughts every day.”

Continuing Deputy Pickett’s legacy

The holidays were not the only reminders of sacrifice.

Pickett’s birthday, Dec. 20, was quietly celebrated at the BSCO. Since his death, the BCSO has continued to honor Pickett.

There are photos, plaques and a special ornament hanging in the office. Several BCSO employees wear engraved metal bands in remembrance of their former co-worker. Some have tattoos in remembrance.

In May, Pickett’s wife Jen Pickett and other family members will attend National Police Week in Washington, D.C., where Pickett’s name will be added to the National Police Memorial. The week, designed to help families navigate loss, honors law enforcement with a candlelight vigil and memorial service. Activities and workshops for family members also are offered.

Several Boone County Sheriff’s Office employees wear engraved metal bands in remembrance of Pickett.

Money raised during an Oct. 6 polo match at Zionsville’s Hickory Hall Polo Club will pay for the Pickett family to participate in National Police Week activities. The match, organized by Megan Cantrell, raised $17,000.

Michelle Atkinson, a close friend of the family, said Boone County Sheriff Mike Nielsen, as well as Pickett’s family and friends, hope co-workers can attend the D.C. memorial as well.

“The deputies attended the funeral but had to get back to work quickly,” Atkinson said. “National Police Week would be a good time for them to take some time, reflect and mourn the loss of their co-worker and friend.”

With help from Jen and other friends, Atkinson launched the Sponsor a Deputy fundraiser, which aims to raise $20,000 to help fund the BCSO’s efforts to send as many staff members as possible to the event. The estimated cost is $1,000 per person. A Facebook fundraiser raised more than $4,000.

“There are a lot of people who worked alongside Jake that would love to be there,” Atkinson said.

State troopers and other outside officers plan to aid the BCSO by covering the officers and staff members’ shifts during the event. “(Jen) is so incredibly grateful for the community support,” Atkinson said. “She said she’s getting tons of Christmas cards and people are still sending things for the boys.

People are still thinking about Jake.”

The fundraiser will continue through May. To contribute, visit paypal.me/BCSOk9donationfund or mail a check to BCSO, 1905 Indianapolis Ave., Lebanon IN 46052.

ESSAY Choose merry

LETTER No reason to run Biden cartoon

Commentary by Terry Anker The delivery driver, obviously frustrated with the person who’d failed to allow him to merge into traffic, gestured wildly at the passing motorist. In an overlooked twist, his anger with the poor driving decisions of another caused him to inflict the same on others. Well, it is the season of high pressure. We all have somewhere to be, on deadline, scurrying to complete our shopping or other checklists, somehow imagining that if we work frantically now we will have time to slow down and enjoy later.

Then, the elderly woman careens into the bank parking lot, singleminded in her desire to be first in the door to confront the teller. “My credit card didn’t work,” she barked.

“How can I finish my shopping?”

Her issue promptly resolved, she departs precipitously, presumably back to finish her chores. The beleaguered young male employee apologizes to those of us next in line and sighs that “it has been like this all day.”

With each season, the flora and fauna around us finds its own watermark. Leaves fall, then grow back again with the turning pages of the calendar. Likewise, each animal of the garden prepares for the long nights of winter only to rejoice with the long days of summer. If all adapt as our planet takes its annual spin around the sun, it would seem that we humans must accommodate it all, too. And if so, what does this season bring to us?

Are we settled in our homes, loved and embraced by family; or, too often, unable to manage the expectations of others, or ourselves? Do we have dominion over our own attitudes or are we driven to them by the phases of the moon? And, if we have choice, why wouldn’t we choose merry?

Catching up with friends Commentary by Danielle Wilson I had dinner with old friends last night.

Not old old, like World War II vets (though I’d offer up my firstborn to sit HUMOR down even for a few minutes with the likes of my greatgrandfathers), but rather a couple of ladies I’ve known since college. We don’t see each other often, but when we do, it feels like just yesterday we were getting married and having babies.

Our conversations have changed somewhat. We discuss the absurd cost of instate tuition for those babies (as well as mammograms and career changes and the best way to remove tannins from red wine), and we use a little more under-eye concealer and hair dye than we once did (not me, thank goodness, because gingers stay red forever!). But for the most part, we are still those starry-eyed girls who met through our goofy, and now gray-bearded, husbands.

Devoted readers will know that the last

thing I want to do on any night is go out, especially when my perfect 9 p.m. bedtime is at risk (the struggle is real!). So, there was a moment yesterday when I thought, “Nope.

I’m too tired. I’m not going.” How stupid that would have been!

We laughed, we cried (I tell a hysterical tale about my male OB-GYN trying to teach me how to use an incontinence device), we shared the ups and downs of motherhood and marriage. Most importantly, we cherished each other’s company and celebrated almost 30 years of friendship.

I apologize for the sentimentally, but the holidays have me in a reflective kind of mood.

And the alternative was my morning spent dry-heaving while sopping up cat vomit.

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “Christmas isn’t a season.

It’s a feeling.”

— Edna Ferber

Editor, I enjoy perusing Current when it arrives faithfully, and I appreciate learning about what’s new in our community as well as what is happening in the arts.

So, imagine my incredulity when I opened the Dec. 11 edition to a tasteless, disrespectful and beyond juvenile cartoon about Sen./ Vice President Joe Biden.

I’m aware that this cartoonist, Tim Campbell, has been called out before for partisan cartoons.

It concerns me that you have made the editorial decision to publish this one, which does not serve the purpose of political cartooning in general.

Political cartooning has a long tradition in American journalism. It’s a powerful satirical tool. But now, more than ever, it needs to be tempered by knowledge of civics and by some civility.

Current is a useful publication and is good for our town. Local journalism is a jewel in any community lucky enough to retain its local newspaper. And although Current is known for its bias to the right, I think the paper is growing in recognizing the diversity of thought and of the voices in our community.

Having said that, I’m baffled by your decision to print a nasty and smarmy political cartoon.

Beverly Thornburg, Carmel

Like most guys, when I walk past a magazine rack, I can’t help but stare. Last month, I saw one cover that made me HUMOR drool. There she was: Perfectly proportioned, with golden skin and a great pair of legs — the best-looking turkey I had ever seen.

It was Whole Foods’ 2018 Thanksgiving publication. Inside the front cover is an introductory letter from … I don’t know who it’s from. It’s not signed but there are two hashtags at the bottom. One says #Thanksgiving and the other is #MakesMeWhole. I accessed both on Twitter, where there were lots of holiday recipes but none for turkey hash, which seems like a wasted pun opportunity.

The description of the Whole Foods turkey includes: “Bronzed, glistening show piece,” which piqued my interest. They went on to say the bird was “dry brined and organic,” which made me lose my appetite.

They also claim their turkeys were “raised the right way,” which is more than you can say about the next-door neighbor’s children.

Your own kids are perfect, of course.

The Whole Foods folks tell you to “expect

applause” when the meal reaches the table.

But they are selling the turkey fully cooked with all the sides already prepared, so what are your guests applauding — an accidentfree trip to the store? Your awesome defrosting and reheating?

Then comes the real stunner. Whole Foods says, “Or maybe there is no turkey, at all. Maybe the turkey is a stunning Romanesco cauliflower roast.” Well, so much for the applause.

After listing their gluten-free, Paleo and keto options, they say, “You’re doing it right, however you Thanksgiving.” You can make cauliflower the main course to please the vegetarians, but when you make “Thanksgiving” a verb, you’ve displeased the grammarians.

By the way, last year’s magazine had a special tip for carnivores: Throw leftover legs and wings into the food processor with some stuffing. Doesn’t a dark meat smoothie sound delish?

Carmel High School graduate Bublick makes mark on Billboard dance charts

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Eva Bublick is already hitting the Billboard charts and she hasn’t yet finished college.

MUSIC The 2015 Carmel High School graduate’s song “America” with All Day Willis, whose real name is William MacKenna, peaked at No. 45 on Billboard’s Dance Club Songs chart for the week of Nov. 24.

“It’s really cool,” Bublick said. “I’ve had people say, ‘Oh, I’ve heard your song,’ and I thought, that’s crazy, it really happened.

All of sudden DJs were remixing my song since it was on dance label.”

Bublick is a senior acting major at Marymount Manhattan College.

“I’ve been going to open mics and clubs and singing since I’ve been in New York,” she said.

Bublick went to Premier Studios to record a demo for her mother. There, she met All Day Willis.

“He’s really good at the guitar and we had similar taste in music. We started talking and started making music,” Bublick said. “He’s very talented and a great producer and I was super lucky to work with him.”

Bublick said she and All Day Willis have made several songs in the last several months.

Bublick said a large group from the studio went to Woodstock, N.Y. during the summer.

“We went to a performance at Woodstock’s Lodge and we heard Joey Eppard play his song ‘In America’ with P-Funk,” Bublick said. “It was the night before Mountain Jam, which is a huge festival.

George Clinton was playing with P-Funk the next night at Mountain Jam.” Bublick said a friend from P-Funk introduced her to Eppard.

“He actually wrote the song after 9/11 and I heard it and really, really liked it,” Bublick said. “The song says in America we need a miracle and I was like, ‘Wow, that’s so relevant today.’ It’s transcended many, many years.”

Carmel High School graduate Eva Bublick, right, hits Billboard’s Dance Club Songs chart with her single “America” with All Day Willis. (Submitted photo)

Bublick said it was cool to make a song about America in such a politically charged time that isn’t really political at all.

“I really loved the message of the song,” Bublick said.

Eppard helped with the recording by playing guitar.

“It was fun collaborating with these really fun and seasoned artists,” she said.

Bublick is working on a new project with guitarist Binky Griptite, an original manager of The Dap-Kings, who left in 2018. Griptite also was Amy Winehouse’s guitarist.

“With the 50th anniversary of Woodstock coming, we are talking about getting a band together and playing for that,” Bublick said. “It’s like working with a living legend.”

Bublick describes her musical taste as 1960s soul with a modern twist.

“Music like Janis Joplin, the Doors and Cher from Sonny,” she said.

She also has some modern influences

like Cigarettes After Sex, Daughter, Demi Lovato and Portugal. The Man. “The music industry is crazy. You never know what is coming next, but you just have to do what is in your heart and in your soul,” she said.

CHS theater teacher Jim Peterson said he remembers Bublick from her four years of theater classes.

“One memory that stands out was the year after she was in a Summer Stock Stage production of the musical “Hair,’” Peterson said. “She really embraced that production and would often sing or talk about that show. Her wardrobe even took on a certain hippie vibe. I’m not surprised that she’s being successful in a recording career. She’s always had a great singing voice. She was determined to follow her acting and singing career in New York.”

Bublick has appeared in small independent films, including “Hell Night: The Summoning.”

Dance Discovery series centers on rock and roll editorial@youarecurrent.com The Dance Discovery class on rock and roll is set for 6:30 p.m. Jan. 9 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

King was active in starting the dance program at Anderson University in 2000.

The Ball State University graduate has danced locally with Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre, Indianapolis Ballet and Dance Kaleidoscope in its annual Yule Tide Celebration.

King was on the first national tour of “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” as Levi with Donny Osmond and in the Canadian national tour as Dan. The session is held before Neil Berg’s “50 Years of Rock and Roll,” set for 8 p.m. Jan. 12 at the Palladium.

Editors share Christmas recipes editorial@youarecurrent.com Anna Skinner Current in Westfield, Current in Fishers and Current in Geist editor I know this will come as a shock to most of you, but I am no baker or cook (gasp). I absolutely do not excel at anything more complicated than minute rice and frozen, pre-cooked veggies.

My mom is a different being, entirely, so I sought her wealth of knowledge after the Current Publishing editors decided to share some of our favorite Christmas recipes this season. Mom always sends me home with a bounty of cookies or fresh-baked goods whenever I visit. She bakes dozens of these cookies every holiday season and they are heavenly.

White Chip Orange Dream Cookies Ingredients: • 2 1/4 cups flour • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda • 1/2 teaspoon salt • 1 cup butter or margarine • 1/2 cup granulated sugar • 1/2 cup light brown sugar • 1 egg • 2 to 3 teaspoons grated orange peel • 2 cups Nestle’s White Morsels • Optional: 2/3 cup of roughly chopped macadamia nuts (these should be optional if you have a nut allergy, because my mom added these nuts for the first time this year, and they took the cookies to the next level.)

Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. Beat butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar in a separate mixing bowl until creamy. Beat in egg and orange peel.

Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in the white morsels and macadamia nuts. Drop the dough in rounded tablespoons onto an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are a golden brown. Let stand 2 minutes, then place on wire racks to cool. Once cool, devour them all in one sitting. No, I’m kidding, don’t do that. Of course, I’ve never done that.

Sara Baldwin Schatz Current in Zionsville editor Every Christmas morning for as long as I can remember, my mom wakes up before the rest of the family to make monkey bread. It’s a gooey concoction comprised of biscuits, sugar and butter and baked in a bundt pan. The bundt pan she uses is shaped like snow-capped mountains, which adds a festive touch. Monkey bread pairs well with coffee and the pull-apart

Christmas Morning Monkey Bread’s pull-apart texture is perfect for sharing and nibbling while family members open stockings in front of the fireplace. (Photo by Sara Baldwin Schatz)

texture lends itself to sharing and nibbling while we open our stockings in front of the fireplace.

Christmas Morning Monkey Bread Bread: • 2 large packages Grand’s Flaky Layers Buttermilk Biscuits • 3/4 cup sugar • 2 tablespoons cinnamon • 1/2 cup white sugar • 1/2 cup brown sugar • 3/4 cup melted butter • 1 cup chopped pecans Icing: • 2 tablespoons butter • 2 tablespoons milk • 1 teaspoon vanilla • 1/2 cup powdered sugar Directions: Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Spray the bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and sprinkle some chopped pecans at the very bottom. Drizzle butter over the nuts then sprinkle a pinch of brown sugar over top. Mix the cinnamon and sugar together in a bowl. Roll the biscuits into 1-inch balls and place in a large Ziploc bag. Pour 2/3 of the sugar mixture over the biscuits and shake the bag to coat evenly. Drop the rolled biscuits into the pan one layer at a time, adding nuts, sugar and butter between each layer. Pour the remaining nuts, butter and sugar over top. Bake for 40-45 minutes. While the bread is cooking, mix the icing ingredients in a stovetop pan on low until evenly combined. As soon as the bread comes out of the oven, flip the pan upside down onto a festive tray, removing the pan slowly. Drizzle the icing over top of the bread.

The “Wich” Came First sandwich at Four Day Ray layers a sunny-side up egg on top of a grilled chicken breast, hickory-smoked bacon, Swiss cheese and Dijonnaise on a croissant roll. (Photo by Anna Skinner)

Four Day Ray Brewing

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 11671 Lantern Rd., Fishers What to get: “Wich” Came First Price: $12 Anna’s take: For an appetizer, I ordered the lobster corn dogs ($15). These are three pieces of sweet, cold-water lobster battered and fried and topped with a Meyer lemon aioli and red onion gremolata. I don’t know what it is about seafood battered like a corndog, but the appetizer is all the craze right now, and rightfully so. If you don’t have a shellfish allergy, I encourage you to try these puppies out.

If I have the opportunity to add an over-

easy egg onto any sort of burger, I always do it. Eggs just add something a little extra on a burger, especially on Four Day Ray’s “Wich” Came First sandwich, which consists of a sunny-side up egg, grilled chicken, hickory-smoked bacon, Swiss cheese and a zesty Dijonnaise on a croissant roll. The croissant was next level and gave the dish a brunchy feel. I ordered a side of Four Day Ray’s house-made potato chips and dipped them in the runny egg yolk – yum.

Suggested pairings: The neat thing about Four Day Ray’s menu is under each option, it recommends what beer to pair it with. For those of us who aren’t beer connoisseurs but like a good brew to pair with our meals, FDR makes it extra easy. For the “Wich” Came First, the suggested options were a blonde or pale ale. FDR has a crisp Blood Orange Blonde ale ($6.50) that I just love, so it was an easy choice.

Behind bars: Union Street Get it at Field Brewery, Westfield Ingredients: 1.75 oz. vodka, 1 oz. pear puree, .75 oz. matcha syrup .75 oz. lemon juice, 2 dashes rhubarb bitters, pear slices Directions: Shake first five ingredients with ice and strain into a martini glass. Garnish with pear slices.

’Tis the season of archaic contractions Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt Isn’t it fun to run into seemingly outdated language during the holiday season? It’s the equivalent of having GRAMMAR GUY a herald show up at your door with a written proclamation on parchment instead of your friend merely sending you a text message. Holiday lyrics and stories are full of rich, old-school language that doesn’t show up much in our day-to-day word usage.

Today, I’m going to talk about two tricky contractions, ‘tis and ‘twas.

‘Twas and ‘tis are special kinds of contractions called “proclitics.” A proclitic is a word that is so closely connected to the sound of the word that follows it that you end up mashing up the two words. We’re always looking for ways to shorten words, and ‘twas and ‘tis are some older examples of the English language finding a way to communicate more efficiently.

Why do the apostrophes go where they do in ‘twas and ‘tis? The basic rule of contractions is that you insert the apostrophe where the omitted letters used to be. So, if ‘twas is a contraction of “it was,” you insert the apostrophe in the place of the omitted “i.”

There’s a good reason that we sound like Dickensian characters when we utter these words. Although they first show up in English in the 16th century, they were firmly baked into popular usage when Charles Dickens wrote “A Christmas Carol” (1843) and when Thomas Oliphant penned the lyrics for “Deck the Halls” (1862).

Even though most of the cultural versions of our Christmas traditions have been made up through the years, I find it enriching to know why and how we ended up with the stories we pass down to our kids. I recently told my son (who is 5) that parents send text messages back and forth with Santa throughout the year to make sure he knows who’s been naughty or nice; it’s just a newer way of more convenient, efficient communication. Charles Dickens would be proud.

Bethlehem’s Manger Square Commentary by Don Knebel At this time of year, Christians from around the world visit Bethlehem’s Manger Square to celebrate the birth TRAVEL of Jesus. This famous hilltop area has been a place of worship for people with a variety of religious beliefs.

Bethlehem, six miles south of Jerusalem, has been settled since at least 1400 B.C., when it was known as Bit-Lahmi (House of Lahmi). Scholars believe the name reflected a temple to Lahmi, the Canaanite god of fertility, located on a hill in the center of town. When the Israelites gained control of the area in perhaps 1200 B.C., they called the town Bet Lehem (House of Bread). Bet Lehem became famous as the birthplace of King David and the town from which the Jewish Messiah would come.

At some point, after gaining control of the area in 63 B.C., the Romans erected a temple honoring Adonis, the doomed mortal lover of Venus, on the site of the Canaanite temple to Lahmi. After Christianity became legal in the fourth century, Helena, the mother of Roman Emperor Constantine, visited Bethlehem to find the

location of Jesus’ birth, believed by then to have been in a cave. When local residents directed Helena to a cave beneath the temple of Adonis, Constantine ordered the temple destroyed and replaced with a church. The cave associated with the birth of Jesus now lies within the Church of the Nativity, built in 565 to replace the church built by Constantine.

When Muslims captured the area in 637, they called the town Bayt Lahm (House of Meat) and erected a mosque near the spot

they believed was the burial place of King David, who is mentioned 16 times in the Quran. The current Mosque of Omar is at the west end of Manger Square, on land donated by a church.
