We are putting a healthy and yummy spin on caramel sauce for dipping your apples! We are using dates in this SUPER EASY recipe. Ask an adult to help you make this.

What are dates?

Dates are the fruit of the date palm tree, which is grown in many tropical regions of the world. They are chewy with a sweet flavor and are a good source of fiber, potassium, iron, and antioxidants. Eating dates can help improve digestive health, lower cholesterol levels, reduce inflammation, and support healthy brain function.

Fun Facts recipe

The first cookbook written in English was “The Forme Of Cury,” compiled by chefs of King Richard II in 1390.

1950s: Invention of the caramel apple

A Kraft Foods employee, Dan Walker, was credited with this delicious caramel dunked apple treat.

16 Medjool Dates, pitted

¾ cup unsweetened plant-based milk

1 tsp sea salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

Add all ingredients (starting with the milk) into a high powered blender or food processor and blend until mixture is smooth and no date chunks are detectable. Add more milk, 1–2 tablespoons at a time, if needed to help the blending process or to thin the caramel to your liking. Use immediately or store in the fridge for later.

HAYRIDE: Hayrides are a fall tradition, and many farms offer relaxing hayrides throughout fall. Younger children who may tire if asked to patrol an apple orchard for apples might find a hayride is more their speed. Some farms may even allow customers to walk the grounds and visit the animals on the premises.

The main producers of apples in the United States include the states of Washington, New York, Michigan, California, Virginia and Pennsylvania.

WALKER’S

“I’m dreading fall. It is a terrifying season,” he says... “Everything shriveling up and dying.” I don’t know how to answer. Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale. I’ve never thought to be frightened of it.

PAW’S CORNER

How Long Will Dog’s Heatstroke Recovery Take?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: Two weeks ago, my Golden Retriever Lollie suffered a heatstroke. I let him outside into the backyard around midmorning. When I checked on him a er about a half hour, he stumbled to me and collapsed. I rushed him to the veterinarian, where he was treated. Lollie is recovering, but I am terrified to let him outside again. Why did he have problems so fast? Will this episode affect his health long-term? -- Greg in Houston

DEAR GREG: I’m glad to hear that Lollie is recovering, because heatstroke can be deadly -- as you know. Your fear is normal, because you’re clearly a caring pet owner, and you don’t want Lollie to be injured again.

at care and attention is perhaps the biggest factor in Lollie recovering fully and having fewer long-term complications from his heatstroke.

e reasons why Lollie suffered heatstroke aren’t as clear, but there are so many factors that could have contributed to it. e morning may have been hotter than usual. Lollie may have had an underlying illness that made it harder for him to withstand the warmer temperature. He might not have drunk as much water as he needed to maintain his internal temperature.

You did all the right things: letting him outside earlier in the day; checking on him periodically; and immediately taking him to the vet as soon as you saw his symptoms were serious.

Keep following the vet’s instructions to support Lollie’s care as he recovers. It may be weeks or months before he can spend the same time in the heat. He’ll get tired more easily, so his daily walks should be kept short. Make sure he’s eating and drinking enough water. All these factors will improve his health for the long term.

Shopping local shops, farms and fairs is a great way to enjoy the fresh autumn air while supporting local businesses.

[Local

Park] Debacle

Can someone please explain why the pickleball and tennis courts at [local park] are LOCKED at noon/1pm on a beautiful Saturday in September!? It is baffling that these courts would not be open dawn to dusk when the weather is nice. What is the harm in people playing an outdoor sport on a public court?!

Sitting ducks

I live in a small community that is 62 and over and disabled. Recently our community has been taken over by a new company which no one within our facility has seen, met, or even heard about. We only know of the name, and yet that doesn’t even to seem to be the truth! Everyone here is a little scared because we don’t know what’s going on and from inside information everyone’s checks have not been cashed for rent. We have no one in the office and no maintenance! There are three communities that this supposed company bought and they too are in arms about the situation. Our grass is getting a little out of hand, and being a disabled community, people are a bit scared, and no one has any answers for us. Please help us!

LeRoy Historian Lynne Belluscio Shares Her Passion through Barn Quilts

BY SUZIE WELLS

Ashop teacher by training, Lynne’s name has become synonymous with LeRoy, where her passion for the town’s history and community comes alive.

She started working at Genesee Country Village & Museum in 1976, sharing her expertise in open air cooking, bread oven baking, cheese making, basket making, and other talents for nearly a decade. She enjoyed coordinating special events and educational programs including annual 4th of July festivities and the Agricultural Fair. In 1988, Lynne transitioned to the LeRoy Historical Society and worked at the Jell-O Gallery Museum for 25 years before retirement last year. rough her weekly historian’s column in the LeRoy Penny Saver, she gets to share stories of LeRoy’s past with the community.

In preparation for LeRoy’s bicentennial in 2012, Lynne and her colleagues envisioned a tribute to the town’s agricultural heritage with barn quilts. e project swi ly gained traction, with farmers and community members either cra ing their own or commissioning paintings for their structures. Lynne organized workshops so people could paint their own quilts.

For the bicentennial, the town hoped for 24 quilts around town. Instead, there were about 75 within the year. Now with 106 quilts featured in the officially printed maps and information and another 50 or so dotting the area landscape, Lynne lauds the LeRoy Barn Quilt Trail as quite a community accomplishment. Drawing inspiration from the Catskills town, Neversink, with its barn quilt trail and map/brochure for visitors, the LeRoy barn quilt trail joins a rich history of art paying homage to local communities. Lynne says she researched Neversink’s trail, as well as Suzi Parron’s Following the Barn Quilt Trail book, which documents the public art project. Since the project’s inception, barn quilts have spread throughout the contiguous states and several Canadian provinces. Lynne says Suzi came to LeRoy to speak on barn quilts’ history and then, when Suzi printed a second book, it included raves about LeRoy’s trail.

Lynne’s pride and passion shines through relation of these stories, even more than her humble note that the trail earned a 2023 NYS Tourism Excellence Award. And now, with the help of the Genesee County Office of Tourism, there’s a billboard on the ruway urging travelers to get off Exit 47 to see the LeRoy Barn Quilts.

Each quilt tells a story of the farm, the families, and the people who painted them. Lynne proudly raves about the project to make this trail come to life as a self-guided driving tour with clues to find the sometimes object-obscured quilts. It’s quite the scavenger hunt and fun for all ages. Lynne eagerly anticipates resuming bus tours, providing insight into the town’s rich history, its farms, and the families that animate LeRoy’s vibrant community.

Lynne says there are so many incredible barn quilts, she couldn’t possibly choose a favorite, but she highlights a few, including the Women’s Suffrage quilt within LeRoy Village Hall, a vibrant testament to the suffrage movement.

e personal anecdotes behind the barn quilts captivate Lynne. Some replicate cherished family heirlooms, while others convey deeply personal narratives. Some individuals are inspired to create fabric quilts a er cra ing their barn quilt.

She loves the story behind the McPherson Orchard’s quilt, “Lady of the Lake,” designed based on an 1867 family heirloom. Lynne’s own family barn features the Whig Rose, a quilt Lynne painted replicating the pattern of a fabric quilt Lynne stitched for her granddaughter. ough Lynne humbly disclaims that she’s “Not a quilter, but I can say I have done it enough to appreciate those who are really good at it!” she loves painting the barn quilts and encourages us all to explore the trail.

For Lynne, the barn quilts are a labor of love in continuous need of repair and repainting for the past decade, but she loves the work, spreading the word about the incredible town. She’s excited to share that more and more people around the area want a quilt on their property. It’s been quite a hit.

As you head out, Lynne advises:

• “If you go searching for the quilts, don’t go alone, or you’ll drive off the road looking at the map and looking for the quilts.”

• “Enjoy the season – drive around, look for the quilts. Enjoy it with your family. It’s something to do on a rainy day; it’s something pleasant to do in any weather.”

• “It’s not just for old folks! Take Grandma on the tour, but you’ll enjoy it as well.”

FALL LAWN CARE TIPS

Aeratetheturf.Aeratingreducessoilcompacting,facilitatingthedelivery of fertilizer and water to a lawn’s roots. While many homeowners, and particularly those who take pride in tending to their own lawns, can successfully aerate their own turf, it’s best to first have soil tested so you know which amendments to add after the ground has been aerated. Gardening centers and home improvement stores sell soil testing kits that measure the pH of soil, but homeowners who want to test for nutrients or heavy metals in their soil may need to send their samples to a lab for further testing.

HIKING: Hiking is a fun activity that can be enjoyed nearly year-round, but it’s especially enjoyable in the fall. That’s because few things in nature are as captivating as a park or forest when the fall foliage is in full bloom. Early fall also boasts ideal temperatures for hiking, as the mercury likely won’t rise enough or sink low enough to produce the kind of extreme temperatures that can compromise a hiker’s afternoon. Instead, fall temperatures tend to be mild and comfortable, allowing hikers to fully enjoy their often beautiful surroundings.

Here’s a tip

• Two tips for sewing buttons: First, for pants buttons, use unwaxed dental floss. It’s incredibly strong and can take a lot of abuse. Second, slip a pin between the button and the fabric before sewing on. When you’re finished, remove the pin. e button has some room behind it, and it will last longer.

• is is a tip for us singletons. I love whipped topping on my hot chocolate, but it doesn’t always last in my fridge. I buy a tub of it, and spoon it into mug-size dollops on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper. When the sheet is full, I freeze them. ey can be peeled off easily and slipped in a container or plastic bag. When I make my hot chocolate, I plop one in straight from the freezer. It takes only minutes to so en and melt. And it’s delicious!

On the whole I take it that middle ageisahappierperiodthanyouth. In the entire circle of the year there are no days so delightful as those of a fine October, when the trees are bare to the mild heavens, and the red leaves bestrew the road, and you can feel the breath of winter morning and evening—no days so calm, so tenderly solemn, and with such a reverent meekness in the air.

INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT FALL

The colors of fall foliage are actually present year-round. Fall is known for its colorful foliage. But the pigments responsible for those colors are actually present year-round. According to the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry, green, yellow and orange pigments are present year-round. However, during spring and summer, the leaves serve as factories where many foods necessary to help the tree grow are manufactured. That process takes place in the leaf in cells containing chlorophyll, which gives the leaves their green color. This process ceases as hours of daylight decrease and temperatures drop.As a result, chlorophyll breaks down, the green color disappears and the vivid colors of fall foliage begin to appear.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH

By Keith Roach, M.D.

What Prompted the Discontinuation of Fen-Phen?

DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m a 71-year-old healthy female who has struggled with my weight all my life. In the ‘90s, I thought I had finally found the solution in fen-phen. It was like a miracle! It took all the nagging thoughts of food out of my brain. My question is, with all the drug ads on TV every day blithely showing the many side effects leading up to -- and including -death, why can’t we use fen-phen? I worked in a hospital where a very large number of employees were taking it with great results. I never heard a hint about anything that could affect someone’s health.

Also, I talked to many of the other patients at the doctor’s office where I was receiving it. Everyone was overjoyed with the results. I had no temptations and no constant yammering in my brain to eat something. As I said, it was a miracle. I felt like a normal person. So, why are all of these drug companies allowed to advertise their products, but one drug that truly worked had to get snatched away from us? -- M.H.

Magic Maze

WORDS WITH ANTS

ANSWER: Fen-phen was a combination of fenfluramine and phentermine, which was approved for use in 1986. Approximately 18 million prescriptions were written for this medicine until 1987, when an association was made between the use of fen-phen and valve diseases of the heart. These cases were reported with fenfluramine or with the related dexfenfluramine alone, but never with phentermine alone. (Phentermine remains on the market.) Approximately 150 cases were reported.

Subsequent studies estimated that seven out of 10,000 people who took fenfluramine or fen-phen for less than four months developed valve disease, while 35 in 10,000 people who took fenfluramine or fen-phen for more than four months developed valve disease. They were compared to people who either took phentermine alone or did not use a weight-loss medicine.

The U.S. Food and Drug Adminstration determined that the risk of valve disease (some being severe enough to prompt valve replacement surgery) was too high, so the FDA asked manufacturers to remove these drugs from the market. I fully understand your perspective. Some people are willing to take the risk of a side effect because the benefit of the medicine is so great. In my opinion, people should have the option of making their own decision, but in this case, the FDA felt that the risk was too high.

I have not seen a medicine for weight loss as effective as fenphen until recently, when semaglutide (Wegovy and Ozempic) and tirzepatide (Mounjaro, not yet approved for weight loss) became available. Just as you say, many of my patients report that they were able to easily control their eating while on these medicines, and as of the time I am writing, there have not been any serious adverse effects of taking these drugs, although there are plenty of milder effects.

However, these medicines only work when you continue to take them, and stopping them generally results in rapid regain of the weight that was lost. It’s important to realize that if you take a weight-loss drug, you’re making a commitment to a long-term treatment.

GET A HANDLE ON WORK-RELATED STRESS

Speak up about your stress. As noted, stress at the workplace can affect workers’ performance, which employers are looking to optimize. Workers can speak to their employers if they feel their work environments are conducive to stress. Work in tandem with an employer to develop timesaving strategies that make it easier to get work done on time. Supervisors may encourage employees to delegate more often, freeing up time to get their work done. Employers may also direct employees to wellness resources that can help them more effectively combat stress. The outcomesof suchdiscussions may never be known if workers never take the initiative and speak up about their stress.

DID YOU KNOW? When nurses go to work each day, many report to hospitals while others work at private practices. For others, a day at the office takes place at research labs. According to the online nursing resource Nurse.org, research nurses develop and implement studies to investigate and provide information on new medications, vaccinations and medical procedures. Research nurses, sometimes referred to as clinical nurse researchers or nurse researchers, typically have advanced degrees, and many first work as research assistants, clinical data collectors and/or clinical research monitors to gain some practical experience as they pursue or consider pursuing their degrees. Some research nurses even conduct independent research, though Nurse.org notes that such professionals need advanced degrees such as an MSN or Ph.D. to pursue such a path. More information about becoming a research nurse can be found at www.Nurse.org.

GET A HANDLE ON WORK-RELATED STRESS

Work-related stress is an all too common problem in workplaces across the globe. According to the American Institute of Stress, 80 percent of workers report feeling stress on the job. Perhaps most troubling, nearly half of those people admit they need help in learning how to manage their stress.

The American Psychological Association notes that stressful work environments can contribute to a host of physical problems, including headache, sleep disturbances and short temper. Chronic stress can produce more serious consequences such as high blood pressure while also weakening sufferers’ immune systems. Stress at the workplace also can make it difficult to concentrate, which in turn can compromise workers’ abilities to perform at the peak of their abilities. That supports the notion that stress is a problem for both employees and employers. As a result, finding ways to reduce that stress should be a team effort. Getting a handle on stress can be difficult. Since so many people trace their stress to the jobs they need to get by, they might think it’s impossible to address that stress without derailing their careers. But there ways for professionals to get a handle on their stress without negatively affecting their careers.
