Creatively Speaking

Hobby Along The panic hit me almost immediately.

My fifth grade teacher Mrs. Divine (who was anything but) casually sat on the corner of her desk, pen and pad in hand and announced, “Each one of you will be giving a five minute oral presentation on your hobby. When I call out your name, tell me your hobby.”

What? I didn’t have a hobby. Sure, I liked to throw a baseball against my garage door and imagine I was the first female pitcher for the N.Y. Mets, but I was relatively certain this would not qualify as a hobby. Nor would it provide enough content for even a one minute oral presentation.

Thankfully, my name was toward the end of the alphabet. This fortuitously allowed me time to formulate an answer.

“Golf,” I blurted out when she called my name.

With a slightly smug smile, she glanced up from her notes and asked “Now Susan, you don’t want to be the class clown. Do you?”

Except I did want to be the class clown and furthermore how prseumptive of her to assume I was not a golfer.

Of course she was right, but that’s not the point.

The point is that although I was a sarcastic and hobby-less fifth grader, I was able to think on the spot and satisfy her ridiculous request. Maybe I didn’t have a hobby; but my father did. And it was golf.

Over the weeks that followed, I was able to glean enough information from my dad to fill five minutes.

Everyday two or three of my classmates gave dull and thankfully brief presentations on subjects ranging from stamp collecting to needlepoint.

Finally it was the day of my big show. I lugged in a full set of golf clubs, golf shoes, golf gloves, golf tees, golf balls, divot repair tools and ball markers. I explained the differences between clubs and under what circumstances a golfer might choose each. I touched

10

Deerfield Beach!

BY SUSAN ROSSER

on the history and rules of golf. You get the picture. But there was Mrs. Divine, sitting in the back like a bird eying her prey — waiting for the right moment to cause me to fumble.

“How far do you typically hit the ball?” she asked with a hint of skepticism.

“Well, that would depend on which club I’m using, but I typically hit a 7-iron about 50 yards,” I lied. I had planned ahead. I had never even hit a golf ball, but thanks to my exhaustive research, I knew how far I should be able to hit one.

My mother, who was in the audience that day, was truly entertained. She knew the truth.

Although my presentation was a complete work of fiction, I did learn quite a bit. Firstly, that a little planning can go a long way. I may not have been the avid golfer I presented myself to be, but I did spend a good deal of time preparing. I was so ready that not even a miserable fifth grade teacher could crack me. Secondly, I learned that hobbies can enrich our lives in unexpected ways.

Knit a sweater and you’ll find that you will become more creative, accomplished and of course warmer.

I was reminded of my golf presentation because I find myself in search of a hobby. At first, I thought I might actually venture out and play 18 holes, but I think I am more drawn to the cute outfits and club sandwiches than the actual sport. I considered the piano, but I don’t own one. I used to paint and draw, but that can be so messy.

The truth is I should fill my leisure time with something beyond books and Netflix. In the end, I don’t know what hobby I will choose. I just know that when I find one, I will be less stressed, more interesting, less bored, more patient, challenged and enriched. Basically, I’ll be perfect.

Happy New Year

Meet the Man Behind Brandon’s Run

BY DANIELLE CHARBONNEAU deficits from developmental and psychological disorders.

Brandon has made a lot of progress since then, but at first, as an autistic young adult in a new state away from his family, he had a lot to learn. New Directions helped him.

The organization aims to help young adults like Brandon become independent citizens, teaching vocational, health, social and recreational skills. New Directions students live in apartments and condos together near Quiet Waters Park in Deerfield Beach.

Brandon got his first work experience as a volunteer, first at a nursing home called White hall, then at the Boca YMCA and Boca Helping Hands program.

The beginnings of the Nautical Flea Market

The Nautical Flea Market has been a popular community event for the past 29 years. The City of Lighthouse Point has over 18 miles of waterways and is located in close proximity to the Hillsboro Inlet, making it a boater’s paradise. This also makes Lighthouse Point the perfect location to host a nautical themed flea market.

In 1990 the annual Nautical Flea Market made its humble beginning as a fundraising event for the local youth pram fleet. Prams, which are small wooden boats, gave the local children a chance to experience sailing on their own. The inaugural Nautical Flea Market was organized by the Lighthouse Point Waterway Committee (now known as the Marine Advisory Board) and was headed

by Lighthouse Point residents Talle Hasis and Mark Snyder. This first event was a huge success with sixty vendors setting up their displays at Dan Witt Park.

In 1996 the event was moved from its original location at Dan Witt Park to a vacant lot on the west side of the Lighthouse Point Marina. It was held at this location for two years until the property was developed into the residential community now known as Tillotson Square. Since there were no other available sites in Lighthouse Point large enough to host this popular event, an agreement was made with the City of Pompano Beach to co-host the Nautical Flea Market. The community park, located on Federal Highway between NE

Nautical Flea Market made its humble beginning as a fundraising event for the local youth pram fleet.

6th and 10th Streets provided the perfect venue for this growing event.

Fast forwarding to 2019, the Nautical Flea Market now hosts over 300 vendor spaces along with approximately 60 boats for sale. The community park venue allows vendors to be located on a pathway covering the entire park.

Visitors can stroll along the winding pathway and shop for all types of new and used boat parts, fishing gear, scuba gear, clothing, sunglasses, jewelry, nautical themed artwork and more. Local boat dealers and private sellers will also be in attendance with various sized boats, jet skis and kayaks.

The action starts in the days leading up to the event with the Lighthouse Point Public Works crew and local resident volunteers taking on the task of measuring and lining out the 300+ vendor spaces throughout the park. The same group of staff and volunteers have been working on this event for years and as a result are able to set up the entire park in just two days! Then, the Friday morning before the event, gates open for the anxious and excited vendors to “move in� and set up their spaces for the weekend! It’s quite an impressive feat.

J.B. Wiles Most of us have driven from Deerfield Beach to Coral Springs on Wiles Road giving little thought to its name. After all, what we really want to do is get from here to there. But without John Bartow “J.B.” Wiles Jr., one of Deerfield Beach’s early Pioneers and after whom the road was named, that road and many others in northern Broward County may never have been constructed.

It all started back in 1917 when the 20-year-old Georgia Cracker left Griffin, Georgia, to seek his fortune in Florida. Stopping in Deerfield on his way to help build a seaplane base on Biscayne Bay, Wiles found the community full of “a lot of nice people.” He never forgot it. When he finished his job, he stopped off again in Deerfield before returning to Georgia via bicycle, pedaling all the way. After a stint in the service during World War I, he again traveled through Deerfield. This time, he was on his way to Cuba where he was to assist in the building of a sugar processing plant. Upon arrival, no jobs existed. He found himself stranded for three weeks, but eventually found transportation

back to Florida. Once again, he stopped in Deerfield before heading back to Georgia where he married Madge and had a little girl named Molly.

After Madge’s death, Wiles returned to Deerfield in 1925 with his father and two-year-old Molly. They traveled in a Model T, sometimes sleeping on a mattress in the back seat and at other times sleeping in a tent they brought with them.

“Most everyone camped in ‘tin can tourists camps’ on their way down to Miami. They called them ‘tin can tourist camps’ because we ate out of tin cans. Deerfield had one too, just south of Hillsborough River and west of the FEC railroad tracks. It was a way of life then

because there was no place for people to stay—no hotels, no rooms, nothing, so we stayed in the camps,” Wiles recalled in a 1974 newspaper article.

Wiles said life back in 1925 was “less than comfortable.” No one lived on the beach then because of the sandflies. Everyone lived west to get away from them.

Working in a Sunoco gas station at the intersection of Hillsboro Blvd. and Dixie Highway became Wiles’ livelihood. He and Molly lived in the back of the station.

It was there Molly said they hunkered down during the 1928 hurricane. As a four-year-old, she remembered being “scared to death and afraid the roof would blow off.”

While the station provided adequate income, Wiles’ dream was to farm. In 1926, he began buying land around Deerfield for $1.50 an acre. When the depression hit, he said Deerfield “ . . . fell apart, went bankrupt, stone cold broke. A lot of us literally lived on M, M and G—mango, mullet and guava.”

During this time, many farmers lost their land when unable to pay the taxes.

Wiles picked it up eventually owning hundreds of acres both on State Road 7 and Lyons Road where he grew mostly beans.

He said snakes were everywhere back then and that farmers wore boots and leather trimmed pants to prevent snake bites.

Wiles married Fleeta Smith in 1930. His

second daughter, Donna, arrived in 1947.

One of her fondest memories growing up was riding the mules as they plowed the fields. She also recalled her father’s short lived effort as a cattle rancher.

“J.B. decided to be a cattle rancher and he fenced in the land at Lyons Road and Hillsboro, built a cattle pen and concrete water troughs. In the late 1950s, he bought cattle and a Braham bull. A year after he started ranching, an epidemic of screw worm killed all the cattle. He lost a lot of money and went back to farming.”

The longer Wiles lived in Deerfield Beach, the more involved in the community he became. He joined the Masons, served on the board of the North Broward Hospital District, advisory board for the Salvation Army, was a founding member of the Deerfield Beach Lions Club and

First Baptist Church, and was appointed by the governor to the Hillsboro Inlet Commission. He served eight years both as a City Commissioner and as a County Commissioner, working to extend and pave roads in northern Broward County. This prompted the county to name Wiles Road after him.

Wiles kept his farm land well into the 1980s, long after many other famers had sold to developers. He continued to contribute to the community until his death in 1999 at the age of 102. His hope was that he would make it to the year 2000 so he could claim he had lived in three different centuries.

opened their doors in 1990, Calypso has been a local favorite. This gem of a restaurant is known for their fresh, wild caught fish, Bahamian conch dishes, Jamaican jerk and American favorites too all served with an island flair. On any given day, look around and you’ll see fellow diners devouring their house special cutter (sandwich)—sautéed shrimp with garlic butter, mushrooms and cheddar all stuffed into a hollowed out kaiser roll. For island comfort food, don’t miss one of their curries or rotis. Fresh oysters and clams are also available. Wash it all down with a draft beer, a glass of wine or choose from over 40 different bottled beers.

Casareccio Trattoria Italiana. ITALIAN Wow! What a find.

This small but impressive Italian eatery is delightful. We can’t really tell you what to try because the menu changes daily. However, we are willing to bet you will fall in love with this place which feels like it just plopped into Pompano straight from the hills of Tuscany. Reservations are highly recommended. Also, call ahead to see what they are serving. 1386 S Federal Highway, 954-998-3642 $$$ Checkers Old Munchen. GERMAN Sprechen sie Deutsch? You don’t find many German restaurants around town. So when you’re looking for a change in your restaurant rotation, take a trip back to the old country at Checkers Old Munchen. For a traditional German meal, try the wienerschnitzel — it’s divine a lightly breaded veal cutlet sautéed in lemon butter and topped with homemade brown gravy. The spaetzle (German noodles) are a real homemade treat and not to be missed — throw a little of that brown gravy on them and they could be a meal unto themselves.

The red cabbage is both classically sweet and sour and there are other side options too including potato dumplings, potato salad and even hot potato salad. As you look around, you can’t help but get the feeling that most of the patrons are returning customers.

And the next time we get a hankering for some schnitzel, we know where to go. Imbibe to your hearts content with their wide assortment of German beers. 2209 E. Atlantic Blvd., 954-785-7565 $$

Greek Nachos

4 Pita breads cut into wedges 1 pound ground lamb 1 yellow onion, minced 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon Olive oil 1 seedless cucumber, diced 2 tomatoes, chopped 1/2 cup red onion, diced

PREPARATION

1/2 cup calamata olives, pitted and sliced 4 ounces feta cheese 4 ounces Greek yogurt 1 lemon Fresh black pepper Kosher salt 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the pita wedges on a baking sheet in a single layer. Brush them with olive oil and bake until they get a little browned. Turn off the oven keep the pita in the oven to stay warm.

Place the feta, yogurt, 1/4 cup of olive oil, lemon juice and zest from one lemon, herbs and salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor.

Blend until smooth. You can do this by hand or in a blender too.

Cover the bottom of a skillet with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the yellow onion and saute until soft and translucent. Add the lamb, breaking up any big chunks. Add the oregano and cinnamon. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until meat is cooked through.

I like to serve these right from the baking sheet but you can move the pita to a nicer serving dish. Top the pita with the lamb. Pour the sauce over and sprinkle the tomatoes, red onion, cucumber and olives on top.

Table 2201 has a menu full of your Greek favorites without all of the hooplah.

Some of Trattoria Novello’s dishes are derived from Chef Pasquale’s own childhood. While his family is from Southern Italy and much of the Trattoria Novello menu reflects that heritage, Chef Pasquale has intentionally crafted a menu with dishes from all regions of Italy. 2665 W.

The Nauti Dawg Marina Café. AMERICAN Nestled in at the Lighthouse Point Marina, the Nauti Dawg is a local favorite. Start with the tuna wontons—crispy fried wonton wrappers topped with tuna tartare, seaweed salad, red pepper mayo, wasabi and a hit of sirracha. For a taste of New England with a twist, try the lobster roll. Of course you can’t go wrong with the fresh fish sandwich—ask what the catch of the day is. The fish Reuben is another great sandwich option—just sub in some fresh fish for the pastrami and you’ve got yourself a little healthier version of the classic. All sandwiches come with a side and while French fries are always a delicious option—the restaurant offers a tangy cucumber salad (among other choices) that provides a nice crunch to any sandwich. They are a dog-friendly restaurant. 2830 NE 29th Ave. (at the Lighthouse Point Marina), 954-941-0246 $$ Papa’s Raw Bar. SUSHI • SEAFOOD Situated next door to their parent restaurant Seafood World, Papa’s indeed seems like the hip child of an established restaurant.

Papa’s also offers a wide array of sushi and sashimi. Start off with one of the towers of Van Buskirk (you’ll find a few menu items named after locals.) The bare naked lady version is a combination of spicy wahoo and tuna with tobiko and masago topped with spicy mayo and served with taro chips. And to wash it all down, they have about a zillion craft beer options and a good wine list too. 4610 N. Federal Highway, 754-307-5034 $$ Red Lotus.

BOGOTÁ

In November, Insider Excursions — Deerfield Beach! magazine’s travel startup — took a group of eager locals on a media trip to Bogota, Columbia. Together, we explored how Colombia has evolved from an area most known for civil conflict, to an area ripe for tourism and rich with culture. We shopped for emeralds, took a specialty coffee workshop, toured the gold museum, admired the work of Colombian artist Fernando Botero, traversed to the top of the city’s highest peak, Mount Monserrate, wandered street markets, visited the historic bull ring, did a photo shoot with a Colombian model and ate — lots, and lots, and lots — of incredible food.

MORE READING: Local Author Spotlight

Deerfield Beach based author Chris Clews is an 80’s pop-culture enthusiast with over 20 years of professional marketing experience in international corporate business. One day, while Clews was bemoaning some workplace difficulties, he turned to one of his favorite 80s films, “The Breakfast Club,” to cheer him up.

A line from one of the characters inspired him and he began journaling about the lessons inherent in the film. The process sparked an idea. What if he were to write about the business lessons one could glean from watching 80s films? He wrote two articles on LinkedIn that were both well received and realized he had stumbled upon a great idea — to merge his love for 80s pop culture and his decades of experience in the corporate world to create an entertaining and informative book.

“What 80s Pop Culture Teaches Us About Today’s Workplace: Unexpected business lessons from ten of the great 80s movies that defined a generation” — is a series of ten lessons learned from ten different 80s films.
