Salute to our Veterans Rev your engines for the Third Annual Healing Heroes Ride Contributed Report Hundreds of motorcyclists will take to the country roads participating in the third annual “Healing Heroes Ride.” The 100-mile motorcycle ride through the scenic Piedmont and Shenandoah Valleys is a popular “high stakes” poker run, which raises money to support Boulder Crest Retreat for Military and Veteran Wellness in Bluemont, Virginia. This year’s ride takes place on Oct. 1, with a rain date of Oct. 2.

“This is a favorite ride for so many local motorcyclists,” shared Ken Falke, chairman and founder of the Boulder Crest Retreat. “It’s a beautiful scenic ride with great prizes and entertainment and a great way to support the health and wellness of our military veterans and their families.”

The 3rd Annual Healing Heroes Ride runs from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and begins at either Patriot Harley Davidson in Fairfax, Virginia or at VFW Post 9760 in Berryville, Virginia and ends at Boulder Crest

Retreat in Bluemont, Virginia. Hundreds of bikers spend the day riding through the beautiful scenery, and spending time with fellow riders.

The day includes riding, a BBQ, and live entertainment. All of the funds raised are donated to Boulder Crest Retreat to support military members, veterans, and their families.

Since the inaugural ride, over $60,000 has been raised. The entry fee is $30 for a rider and $60 for rider and passenger, and includes a poker hand, breakfast, lunch, drinks, and entertainment. Many of the riders and passengers are veterans themselves, and come out annually to support fellow brothers and sisters.

"The excitement within the motorcycle community is building as local riders and riders from as far away as Florida are getting ready to participate in the 3rd Annual Healing Heroes Ride to support BCR,” says ride chairman Jack Causa.

“Bikers, many of whom are veterans, are avid supporters of this ride and the great work being done by Boulder Crest Retreat to support our combat veterans and their fami-

lies."

For the second year in a row, John Marshall Bank is the Presenting Sponsor for this ride.

“As a locally owned and managed financial institution, John Marshall Bank participates in a number of worthwhile community events throughout the Washington region,” said President of John Marshall Bank Bill Ridenour.

More individual and corporate sponsors are being sought for this event. To learn more and to register for the ride, log online to: 3rd Annual Healing Heroes Ride.

As the nation’s first privately funded wellness center dedicated exclusively to combat veterans and their families, Boulder Crest Retreat has developed the na-

tion’s first non-clinical curriculum for combat stress, leveraging our breakthrough and innovative Warrior PATHH program. This effort will ensure that Warrior PATH can be delivered in communities across the nation and also support our efforts to create similar world-class Retreats in communities featuring heavy concentrations of veterans.

Boulder Crest Retreat is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization that is funded entirely by private donations by individuals and organizations from around the country. For more information about the retreat, opened in September 2013, please go to www. boulder crest retreat.org.

Fielding Smith Daniel MAKING THE NEWS

Culpeper man faces six felony charges Lt. Eric Quinn of the Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office released a statement on Tuesday afternoon reporting the arrest of Fielding Smith Daniel, age 52, of the 1000 Block of South Blue Ridge Ave. in Culpeper. Daniel has been charged with six felony counts: two counts of Carnal Knowledge, two counts of Use of an Electronic Device to Solicit a Minor and two counts of Soliciting a Minor for Prostitution.

Daniel was arrested on Friday, Sept. 9, 2016 at his resident in Culpeper and is currently incarcerated at the Rappahannock Regional Jail under no bond.

Events leading to his arrest include an Aug. 24 2016 report received by the Stafford Sheriff ’s Office that a 14-year-old female had run away from her grandmother’s residence located in Stafford County. Detective Joe Massine initiated an investigation into the missing juvenile.That investigation revealed the juvenile had been communicating online with older men. Detective Massine was ultimately able to track the juvenile down on August 31, 2016 at the home of a friend. During the follow up investigation he learned the juvenile had previously met up with an adult male that she had met online. That man was later determined to be Fielding Smith Daniel. Through the course of Detective Massine’s investigation he learned that Daniel had picked the juvenile up near her home and drove her to a nearby motel. Daniel engaged in sexual activity with the juvenile and paid her for the encounter. Daniel met up with the juvenile again approximately a week later and again engaged in sexual activity.

Detective Massine obtained warrants for Fielding Smith Daniel as well as a search warrant for Daniel’s home and vehicle located at the South Blue Ridge Ave address in Culpeper. In his affidavit for a search warrant, based on conversations with the victim, Massine listed items such as pictures and/or videos of the victim, sex toys, suitcases, diaries written or electronically stored, women’ lingerie among items to be

looked for. Both the arrest warrants as well as the search warrants were executed on Friday, September 9, 2016. Stafford County authorities were assisted by the Culpeper Town Police and Virginia State Police.

“This is not our case,” said Culpeper Police Chief Chris Jenkins on Tuesday. “The warrants were issued from Stafford County and we assisted in the arrest.”

Eric Olsen is the Commonwealth’s Attorney for Stafford County.

According to their office, “he [Fielding Smith Daniel] will be tried here [Stafford County] in juvenile court. Those proceedings are not for public record.

RICH CROWLEY’S SNAPSHOT OF CULPEPER

Unattended death at Germanna Community College Campus The Virginia State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation’s Culpeper Field Office is investigating an unattended death that occurred on the campus of Germanna Community College located on Point Drive in Spotsylvania County.

On Sept. 13, 2016, at approximately 8:30 p.m. local law enforcement were notified of and responded to an unresponsive male in a vehicle. Students reported seeing the student slumped behind the wheel of vehicle to Campus Police, who alerted State Police.

Virginia State Police were contacted and responded to the scene.

The preliminary investigation has determined the death of a 19-yearold male did not involve foul play and was an isolated incident.

The body has been transported to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Richmond for examination and autopsy. The investigation is ongoing at this time.

Germanna college president Dr. David Sam responded to the incident.

"I am deeply saddened to report that late last night (Sept. 13) in the parking deck at the Fredericksburg Area Campus in Spotsylvania a Germanna student met with untimely death. Our Campus Police and State Police have determined that there was no foul play and that this was an isolated incident. There was and is no danger to the campus or community.

"We have all experienced health problems, stress, personal and family crises, and/or fiscal challenges in our lives. I ask that faculty, staff, students and community members always be ready and willing to help those who face those challenges.

"Counselors are available on campus should anyone need their assistance and the college has a variety of resources along with those of the Rappahannock Area Community Services Board.

"We are heartbroken at this loss and send our deepest condolences to the family."

SCOOTING TO SAUDI ARABIA This young man's scooter, which was parked outside the Culpeper Sport and Racquet Club, was the first thing that caught my eye. Soon after Ford Thomson came over, put his helmet on and climbed aboard. I decided to chat with him and take his picture. He was very engaging and readily shared with me that he was a long time Culpeper resident who graduated from Auburn and now resides in Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia? Yep! He teaches English there and has for some time. He was home for a month and came to the club to improve his tennis skills.

➤ Renovated

theatre fell short of fundraising goals

By Jeff Say

CULPEPER TIME STAFF WRITER

The State Theatre Foundation Board of Directors announced Wednesday morning that the theatre has suspended operations effective immediately.

In a letter circulated early Wednesday, the Board said that all events scheduled after Sept. 12 are cancelled. All tickets purchased for fall events will be refunded.

Reopened in 2013, the State Theatre had sat vacant for almost a decade.

Originally opened as a Pitts Theatre by State Senator Benjamin Pitts in 1938 as a vaudeville movie house, the building featured an art deco facade with a modest interior. Of the 30 Pitts theatres in the state of Virginia, only two are still operational the State Theatre and The Royal in Front Royal.

The Pitts family leased the theatre to Regal Cinemas in 1973 when it was named the State Theatre. It was in serious disrepair and at one time served as the home of

the mysterious “Finders” secret society.

The $9.3 million renovation followed, repairing holes in the ceiling and bringing in seats once used at the Kennedy Center.

The 560-seat live theatre was heralded as an economic development driver in downtown Culpeper, leading to several businesses following in its art deco style.

Now, the future is uncertain for a building once heralded as a local “phoenix,” rising from near ashes.

The board wrote Wednesday: “It is with great sadness that the State Theatre Foundation Board of Directors announce that we will be suspending our operations of the theatre until further notice.

Any and all events scheduled after September 12th are cancelled. All tickets purchased for fall events will be refunded.

We had hoped that with the changes in staffing, our new direction of diverse programming, and our community partnerships and educational outreach that we would be able to create renewed interest for the community and the region to provide the contributed income necessary to sustain operations.

Unfortunately, while we saw a trend of positive results, we fell short of our fundraising goals to keep us moving forward. ➤ See State, Page 5

➤ State, from Page 5 We would like to commend our Executive Director, Steven Barker, and the diligent staff and volunteers for all their hard work to keep the theatre operational. In addition, we would like to thank all of the donors who have given to the State Theatre Foundation from conception and construction through sponsorships and memberships. We are truly appreciative of your faith in us.

In the coming months, the State Theatre Foundation Board of Directors will take the appropriate steps to decide how to move forward. We promise to diligently work to decide the best course of action for the facility, the foundation, and the community.”

The State Theatre Board said there would be no further comment at this time.

Last fall, the State Theatre went on a furious effort to raise $400,000 to fund 2016 operations. Earlier this year, it was announced that $250,000 had been raised, enough to keep the establishment open until now.

At the time, executive director Steven Barker said additional revenue streams had been identified and partnerships with local businesses had been formed for co-location in the historic theatre.

During Give Local Piedmont, the State Theatre raised $4,220.

Throughout the summer, the theatre had trimmed its offerings and the fall listings were more limited than previous years.

As news broke Wednesday morning, business leaders expressed their sadness at the uncertain future of the theatre.

“The Culpeper Chamber of Commerce was saddened to learn that the State Theatre was closing,” Culpeper Chamber of Commerce President/CEO Sandy Boone said. “ Anytime we lose a business it leaves a hole in the heart of the community and can have an impact on the local economy. We look forward to seeing the outcome of the State Theatre Foundation Board’s discussions regarding the facility and the future.”

The State Theatre was very involved with Culpeper Renaissance, Inc., and the organization was sad-

Culpeper Town Council has helped the theatre acquire tax credits, but was reluctant to put taxpayer money toward the project in the past.

On Wednesday, Mayor Mike Olinger expressed his desire to see the theatre continue but was hesitant to promise financial support.

“It’s a sad day,” Olinger said. “I know folks worked very hard to make it a community asset. I don’t know what the plan is but hopefully they can get some national support to take an interest in it. There’s not much the town can do, we can’t just hand over tax dollars to make it work.”

We support their mission, goals, and objectives as they move forward in deciding the best course of action. Our hope is that the State Theatre will be able to continue to be a cultural jewel where our entire region will benefit from entertainment, education, and community outreach.”

USINESSES TO KNOW IN & AROUND OUR COMMUNITY

Those first teeth are in...time to visit the dentist

By Anita Sherman STAFF WRITER

Already with patients scheduled, Dr. Alvin Amante is beaming these days as he prepares to open his pediatric dentist office in Culpeper. He’ll have a booth at the Culpeper Fiesta and he attended the recent Business, Industry and Education Day held at Eastern View High School.

“This community has been very welcoming,” says Amante who has been using Raven’s Nest on Davis Street as his operating headquarters.

“I’d like to become their dental home...just like you have a doctor for your overall health needs...I want to be that for your oral health,” says Amante who has spent a great deal of his dental career focused on the less fortunate.

Along his dentistry career path, Amante spent time working in Seattle, Washington with Medical Teams International, a Christian organization that provides low-cost or free medical care. It was during that time

that Amante decided to shift focus from general dentistry to pediatric dentistry.

“After seeing so many adults with oral problems, I felt my calling was to work with the very young and emphasize prevention and education,” said Amante whose practice is geared toward children ages 1-18.

“Children get their first bottom molars around 18 months...the top molars around age 3...while they will lose their other teeth, the molars are with them until around age 12... it’s so important to keep those teeth healthy,” says Amante. “One of the major childhood diseases stems from cavities.”

Amante described a typical first visit where he talks with the parents usually with the toddler sitting on their laps. He’ll share risky habits and best oral habits with lots of emphasis on prevention. Dr. Amante smiles as he shares his belief that going to the dentist for children doesn’t need to be a traumatic experience and the sooner young patients and their families get to know him and

establish a comfort zone the better their overall oral health will be.

One of eight children, Dr. Amante hails from the Philippines where he earned his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the University of the Philippines College of Dentistry in 1993. He completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency at the University of Rochester in 2000 and finished his Pediatric Dentistry Residency at the same institution in 2010.

Married and with three young children, Dr. Amante lives in Haymarket.

“My wife works part-time as a nurse practitioner in Georgetown so Haymarket is about in the middle for her commute there and mine to Culpeper,” says Dr. Amante who has been working as a dental care professional at Smilez Pediatric Dental Group in Gainesville. Family oriented, their move to Virginia brings them closer to her brother’s family.

Accepting most insurances, Dr. Amante has privileges with several area hospitals including Culpeper

Hospital, a part of Novant Health UVA Health System.

Anxious to become familiar with area pediatricians, Dr. Amante sees his practice as a partner in the care of children.

“I’m excited,” says Dr. Amante about opening his own practice - Culpeper Kids Dentistry - in an area that he believes will welcome his focus on children and their oral health.

“It’s all about the patients and their access to care.”

The property remains owned by the Virginia Conservation Legacy Fund, Inc. (VCLF), a nonprofit organization that seeks to conserve Virginia’s natural resources and enhance public access and enjoyment of the outdoors.

VCLF purchased the bridge and an additional 1,343 acres, for a total of 1,531 acres, with $9.1 million from the Virginia Clean Water Revolving Loan Fund. Once the loan is retired, the property will be transferred to state ownership.

Virginia State Parks will manage the 1,531 acres, including the bridge and Rockbridge Center.

Staying Sharp

Aging is inevitable and it is going to take place whether you like it or not. However, there are ways to keep yourself as sharp as you possibly can. Often when the word aging is heard, you may have negative thoughts come to mind such as wrinkles, gray hair, comorbidities, memory loss or other emotional and physical losses. Research shows that people are living longer, healthier and more motivating lives. Emphasis is typically placed on physical health. However, this is changing as researchers are conducting more research on dementia, brain health and the influences of lifestyle factors. In order to maximize your quality of life while you’re aging, it is important not to overlook keeping your brain healthy along with your physical body.

Contrary to popular belief, memory loss and forgetfulness are not associated with normal aging. Just as physical changes occur to your body as you age, changes also occur within the brain as you age. Your memory might naturally become less efficient as you age as the

ability to process and retain information slows or changes. You do have control over making lifestyle decisions in order to maximize the functioning of your brain. Diet, exercise, social activities, nature and music are just a few ways to stay sharp in your brain health.

Diet and exercise help to reduce the risk of heart disease and diabetes which are conditions that have a higher risk for developing a neurocognitive disease such as dementia. Studies indicate that leafy greens and berries are brain foods.

Exercise improves blood flow and can assist in reducing plaque in the brain.

Both diet and exercise help to boost your energy so that you can engage in other brain health activities such as being social. People, places and things change as you age. It is important to remain social through the changes.

Making friends can seem effortless.

But the older you get, the more difficult making friends can become.

Research studies demonstrate that staying socially engaged provides brain stimulation and it is critical to the learning area of the brain. In order to maintain friendships as you age, it may require you to take risks. Join a social network, interest group, book club, travel group, volunteer and learn to just say yes. Keep in mind that the internet and local libraries have great lists of resources to help maintain the social

area of your life.

Nature and music are good for the soul. Nature and music nourish the soul and brain while reducing the risk or effects of depression. When outdoors or listening to music, the mind and body are often relaxed which can reduce stress and can increase your feel good endorphins. Several research studies have shown that nature and music have a positive effect on mood, cognitive functioning and working memory.

The Culpeper County Library will be showing the film, Alive Inside. This is a documentary that highlights the power of music in people living with dementia. The film demonstrates how music can positively influence the brain and memory. The film will be shown on Sept. 24th at 10 a.m. A panel discussion will follow. We currently live in an ageism society. Ageism can be defined as stereotyping of individuals because of their age. It is possible to live an active and healthy lifestyle, but in order to do so you must put effort into living a healthy and active lifestyle.

In closing, I would like to leave you with a quote written by Yoko Ono “some people are old at 18 and some are young at 90…time is a concept that humans created.”

Diana Bright, MS, LNHA is the Executive Director, Poet’s Walk of Spotsylvania.

BEHIND THE BADGE Night patrol fuels this officer’s desire to make a difference He still has the 1967 Mustang he drove in high school -- and raced. And, he still leaves rubber on the pavement at a local race track from time to time -- though less so than in the past.

But big automotive dreams seem to fuel the young officer. At the end of the interview he climbed into a monster truck more suited for a major construction site than an on road vehicle.

“I like my trucks,” he explained with a grin.

Satterfield likes auto mechanics. It came early in his life. His dad a pilot, his mother a flight attendant for Pan Am, Satterfield learned he could not follow the family tradition of taking to the air. He had Type-1 diabetes. But that didn’t stop him from feeding the need for speed. He played hockey in high school, built and raced cars with his father, and later took on auto mechanics.

The roughhewn officer grew up in Denver and after high school

Matt Satterfield

Culpeper Police Patrol Officer Age: 28 Education: Auto Mechanic Trade school Hobbies: motorcycles, building race cars, shooting. worked at the Coors Brewery in Golden. That lasted until the Great Recession when his job disappeared in 2009. So he picked up and moved to Culpeper where his mother and father lived.

While managing the local RiteAid Satterfield took courses at Germanna Community College. It was there he meet former Police Captain Rick Pinksaw. The two talked about policing and it was just a matter of time before Satterfield found what now seems to be a life calling.

He joined the Culpeper Police Department in 2013 working Patrol. The same position he loves today.

“Every day is different,” he

says of the job, “you never know what you are going to get.” For Satterfield, night patrol offers its own attraction over and above being a police officer, or as he puts it there are “less fraud” complaints at night.

Night shift on Patrol runs from six at night to six in the morning. It’s a dynamic environment but one that he approaches with the sense of being more a watchman protecting public safety than “writing arrest warrants.”

“Making an arrest is not always the solution,” he said. “Communication is the key.”

“I’d rather change a life rather than the night.” Meaning his goal is to fix lives not just the immediate temporary problem – if possible.

“Matt is a talented young officer. He truly cares about those he serves,” Culpeper Police Chief Chris Jenkins said. “I predict he will have a long and rewarding career in law enforcement.”

Hans Murdock assumes joint role with The Culpeper and Culpeper Baptist Church

By Ann Lovell

SPECIAL TO THE CULPEPER TIMES

Fifteen years ago, Hans Murdock was trying to get out of the country.

It was September 2001. Murdock and his wife, Becky, were slated to serve a two-year term with the Southern Baptist International Mission Board (IMB) in Russia.

They had tickets to leave the U.S. in mid-September. Then 9/11 happened.

“We got a call from the IMB,” Murdock recalled. “‘You’re not going anywhere yet,’ they said. So, we started unpacking everything we’d packed up. We didn’t know how long we would be held up. A couple of days later, we got another call. ‘You can leave in two days.’ We started packing again.’”

Murdock is the newly appointed chaplain at The Culpeper, a LifeSpire of Virginia continuing care retirement community in Culpeper.

He, his wife, Becky, and their

7-year-old daughter, Sandra, recently relocated to Culpeper from Latrobe, Pennsylvania, where Murdock had served as a church planter and pastor since 2004, a role he assumed after he and his wife returned from Russia.

Murdock’s position is a firstof-its-kind collaborative venture between The Culpeper, formerly Culpeper Baptist Retirement Community, and Culpeper Baptist Church (CBC), said Jim Jacobsen, executive director of The Culpeper.

Murdock serves both as chaplain at The Culpeper and as senior adult minister at CBC — a vision that began more than a year ago among CBC senior pastor Dan Carlton and the senior leadership of LifeSpire of Virginia, The Culpeper’s parent organization.

“We wanted to strengthen pastoral service programs to seniors at the church and within the community,” Jacobsen said. “Many of our residents are members and active leaders within Culpeper Baptist

Church. We support one another in many ways, and the addition of Hans will only enhance our vision of continued family within the community.”

Carlton agreed, noting the partnership is a natural extension of the relationship that The Culpeper and CBC have enjoyed for more than 70 years.

“Culpeper Baptist Church helped start The Culpeper and ultimately Virginia Baptist Homes” (now LifeSpire of Virginia), Carlton said. “What we will be able to do together in engaging people over 60 will be far more than what we could have done separately.”

Carlton, Jacobsen and a panel of community and church staff received more than 50 resumes and interviewed “many solid candidates,” Jacobsen said.

“We had a ‘top 6’ list that was pretty dynamic,” Carlton agreed.

“Several candidates told me they would not have applied if it was only a church staff or a senior adult chaplain position. They were excited about the possibility of working in both arenas.”

For his part, Murdock is also excited about the practical ways the church and The Culpeper community can be involved together in spiritual growth in ways that are both intentional and intergenerational.

“Many churches put lots of emphasis on children and youth ministries,” Murdock said. “But for most churches these days, their greatest population is senior adults.” Murdock wants to explore ways to connect seniors and youth in a meaningful way.

“Kids and teenagers don’t al-

Hans Murdock ways pay attention to their parents, but they will pay attention to their grandparents,” Murdock said.

Murdock believes the teachers and professionals who live at The Culpeper have a lot to offer kids in terms of practical support and life lessons.

“They can listen to children read.

They can offer tutoring in math or science. There are great opportunities for them to connect with and continue to influence the community they helped build,” Murdock said.

What else can we expect from this new venture?

“Check back in three years,” Carlton said. “I think we are on track to create a model for spiritual wellness and meaningful ministry for people over 60 that can be replicated in many other communities.”

LifeSpire of Virginia operates four continuing care retirement communities in Virginia: The Chesapeake in Newport News, The Culpeper in Culpeper, The Glebe in Daleville and Lakewood in Richmond.

Ann Lovell is Corporate Director of Communications for LifeSpire of Virginia, formerly Virginia Baptist Homes. For more information, email alovell@lifespireliving.org or call (804) 521-9192.

It's a rare motorist who doesn't have strong feelings about today's sport utility vehicles. Love 'em or hate 'em, one thing is certain-just like their automobile cousins, SUVs last longer, operate more efficiently, and command a higher resale value when they are properly maintained and serviced.

For those too busy or too overwhelmed by modern vehicles to perform their own maintenance, the pros at the non-profit National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE) offer some advice on choosing a repair establishment: l Ask friends and associates for recommendations; consult local consumer organizations. l Arrange for alternate transportation in advance so you will not feel forced to choose a shop based solely on location. l Look for a neat, well organized facility, with vehicles in the parking lot equal in value to your own and modern equipment in the service bays. l Look for a courteous staff, with a service writer willing to answer all of your questions. l Look for posted policies regarding labor rates, diagnostic fees, guarantees, acceptable methods of payment, etc. ase.com

Cozy at the grocery stores, eggs and cheese go together well JEFFERY MITCHELL

Questioning the foundation of your illusions is not for the faint of heart.

Take, for instance, why cheese, milk and eggs are often located near each other in grocery stores. Eggs clearly don’t come from sheep, goats or cows. Similarly, there is no milk (or cheese) coming from chickens. Why then the common association?

A word of warning: if you choose to read on, do so at your own risk. I was once like you - blissful in my illusions.

Then, I asked why.

At first the common reply makes sense, “Eggs have similar care requirements as dairy.” If that works for you, stop reading here and go fry an egg. Seriously - they taste delicious and I love them atop Cherry Glen’s Monocacy Chipotle cheese with a slice of tomato on a toasted English muffin.

If you are still reading, you may have conjured up some questions about eggs at a farmers market or those from your own (or a neighbor’s) hens. These are some of the best eggs going and are regularly not refrigerated. Should they not be?

I mean how is it that eggs are legal to sell at both ambient temperatures and simultaneously (by code) requiring refrigeration? While you ponder that, I will feed you the food service regulations that allows for receiving eggs at 45 degrees. By comparison, all other refrigerated product is to be received at temperatures under 40 degrees. Successful clucking and squawking by the egg lobby are listed as the common reasons associated with the regulatory anomaly.

Another oddity is the price spread of eggs. If you are lucky enough to have a neighbor with hens, you may be given eggs. Perhaps in a fanciful basket and be blessed to live a life where your eggs

Curd Quips

are collected, washed, candled and delivered for free. Next up on the egg ladder are Aldi and Safeway who have been dueling for the low price leader in recent weeks with eggs for sale as low as $.69 cents per dozen.

Move the same dozen eggs to the Culpeper Farmer’s market (get there early for your eggs as they sell out before 10 a.m.) and expect to pay $3.95 – $4.95 a dozen. Even more curious are Farmer’s Market quality eggs (refrigerated) in a market or specialty PHOTO COURTESY OF WWW.FENNELFROND.COM food store. A dozen eggs here are Topping this goat cheese with a fried egg is nothing less than divine. commonly priced up to $ $6.95/dozen.

That’s a spread of $.06 cents per egg to $.58 cents per egg. Even so, there is Mexican RestauRant still no outrage of price discrepancy.

It’s taken me years, but I think that I have reached the moment of enlightened thinking about the common placement of cheese and eggs. Like eggs, cheeses vary wildly you know that the Frenchman’s now the carries French pastries? in quality and price. TheDid hens, Did you Corner know that Frenchman’s their care and diet, are hallmarks Corner now carries French pastries?
