Contemplating Antiques?

Here’s How to Buy

Antiques also might be more affordable than many shoppers think. Savvy shoppers may find mid-range “brown furniture,” which constitutes some antique wood pieces, more affordable than reproductions. Homeowners and apartment dwellers who want their rooms to stand apart often rely on antiques to provide a unique ambiance.

Antique shopping also is a “green” endeavor. Antiquing is an ecofriendly practice, putting to use items that have been recycled and reused.

Antiques also can be a good investment, as they generally retain their value while adding texture, contrast and personality to any room of the house.

Understanding antiques can take time, but even the novice can develop an eye for pieces that strike their fancy. And thanks to the wealth of information about collectibles and antiques available online, shoppers have constant access to information about antiques at their fingertips. Shoppers may even be able to comparison shop on their mobile phones.

Mid-range antiques can be particularly easy to buy thanks to the available inventory. Novices may want to begin by exploring midrange antiques. As they gain more knowledge and expertise, shoppers who covet antiques can move on to high-end pieces that are more expensive. Some antiques are put in the same category as fine artwork and are considered just as valuable.

Another reason to browse and shop antiques is to learn about the value of similar items homeowners may already own.

For those looking to downsize a collection or simply liquidate an estate, antiquing is a great way to get hands-on experience.

Rummaging through antique stores or markets can be a relaxing experience as well. And many antique enthusiasts find shopping for antiques is like a treasure hunt to find that coveted piece and unearth a bit of history in the process.

Halloween Pumpkin-Carving Pointers

T

ransforming pumpkins into cleverly carved creations is a Halloween tradition. Each October, glowing pumpkins take up residence near doorsteps and porches, adding to the magical ambiance of the season. Young and old spend time designing their themes and then taking knife to pumpkin to achieve the desired

effects.

creations. These tips can help anyone carve a pumpkin:

Carving pumpkins into jack-o’lanterns can be traced back centuries to Ireland and a story about “Stingy Jack.” The tale involves Jack outwitting the Devil twice, the second time freeing the Devil from a prank in exchange for the promise that he would not claim Jack’s soul should Jack die. When Jack did die, God did not want the unsavory character in heaven, but the Devil could not claim Jack for hell. Therefore, Jack was relegated to roam the planet indefinitely with only a burning coal to light his way.

Jack put that coal into a carvedout turnip. His ghostly figure was referred to as “Jack of the Lantern.”

Later on, it was shortened to “Jack O’Lantern.” When Irish immigrants arrived in North America, turnips weren’t plentiful, so jack-o’-lanterns were instead carved into pumpkins.

Today, many people carve jacko’-lanterns, with some featuring just smiling or grimacing faces, while others are far more artistic

and shadowing. The more air that is allowed to penetrate the pumpkin, the faster it will start to degrade.

Begin with a fresh pumpkin. Look for a pumpkin with a green stem. If the pumpkin has been sitting around for too long or has been handled too much, the stem can get brittle and/ or fall off. A thick, fresh pumpkin is best for carving.

Plan your ideas. Draw a plan for your pumpkin before you make your first cut. Then transfer that design to the pumpkin with pen or a thin marker. Pumpkin-carving kits come with designs that can be “traced” by poking small holes to create the outline of the design.

Don’t cut all the way through.

Many professional pumpkin artists do not actually cut clear through the flesh of the pumpkin. They carve and shave off layers of the outer rind until it becomes more translucent.

The level of transparency can be adjusted based on how much skin is removed and as a way to add texture

Delay carving until the last minute. Wait until the day before Halloween to begin carving.

Pumpkins are a perishable item, and they’ll begin to rot as soon as you begin carving. Spritzing them with water can help them stay fresh, but there’s no turning back the clock once the first cut is made.

Cut a hole in the back. Cutting off the top of the pumpkin can affect its structural integrity and cause it to rot faster. Instead, cut a hole in the back of the pumpkin and use an electric light to illuminate it. LEDs are adviseable because they don’t generate much heat, which can cook and rot the pumpkin from the inside out.

With some creativity and a little know-how, anyone can create an eye-catching jack-o’-lantern.

Pack Well for a Hike in the Wilderness

S

eptember may enjoy the title of National Wilderness Month, but any time of year is a good time to enjoy the great outdoors.

One of the ways to immerse oneself in nature is to enjoy a day hike or overnight backpacking excursion.

Millions of people take to trails or create their own paths all across the world each and every year. Hiking is a great way to enjoy the beauty of nature, but it also has other benefits. Hiking as a form of low-impact walking can reduce risk for heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, obesity and anxiety.

Preparing for a hike involves packing accordingly for the trip. These items should be brought along on hiking trips to ensure such excursions are comfortable, safe and successful: Water: Bring along water whether you’re hiking in warm or cool temperatures. Water can be heavy, so some experienced hikers prefer to bring a filtration device or purifying tablets so they can rely on natural water sources for their drinks.

Proper Footwear: Trail shoes may be adequate for shorter hikes or when you are not carrying much gear.

Otherwise, opt for sturdy hiking boots with plenty of sole and ankle support.

map will help keep you on course.

Remember, cell phones may not work in remote areas.

Nutrition: Bring along lightweight food to keep you well fed. Any number of situations, including difficult trails and getting lost, can prolong hiking trips. Nutritious snacks can help hikers maintain their energy levels.

Fire Starter: A night spent in the wilderness may not be on the itinerary, but chemical fire starters, matches or even dryer lint can help start fires in emergency situations.

Rain Gear/Extra Clothing: Dressing in layers and having a change of clothes enables you to adjust your attire according to the weather conditions. Wear water-repellant materials that wick away sweat.

Multipurpose Tool: A multipurpose tool can be used to cut items, open cans and much more.

First Aid Kit: Don’t forget a prepackaged first aid kit to treat minor or major injuries. Taking a first aid course is also helpful.

Sun Protection: Sun protection encompasses sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat.

Toilet Paper: When nature calls in nature, a roll of toilet paper can make things much easier.

Illumination: Pack a headlamp or flashlight, and don’t forget the batteries. Light will help you navigate if you are out after sundown.

Flashlights also can be used to signal others if you’re lost.

Emergency Shelter: Tarps, tents or even reflective blankets can be put to use if a day trip needs to be turned into an overnight stay.

Navigational Tools: A compass and

Fun and Safe Halloween Party Guide

H

osting a Halloween party can be fun, but it’s also a big responsibility. Halloween parties favor outlandish pageantry, amazing costumes, eye-catching decor and enough scares and tricks to amuse thrill-seekers. While fun is often the primary focus of Halloween, party hosts also need to prioritize safety when hosting spooky soirées.

Halloween isn’t just for kids anymore. Alcohol has become a big part of many adults’ Halloween celebrations, and that means hosts must take steps to safeguard their guests from overdoing it with alcohol.

As party planners start to plan their Halloween festivities, it’s important to remember that safety must be a priority: Prepare the space. A raucous party may lead to accidents around the house. Move out any extra furniture so guests have more space

to move around. Remove breakable items from rooms where guests will spend most of their time.

Skip the candles. Battery-operated tealights create the effect of real candles without the danger.

Illuminate jack-o’-lanterns and other Halloween items with flickering LEDs, which won’t start a fire if they’re knocked over.

Hire a bartender. If the party is an adult affair, invest in a professional bartender or server who can monitor guests’ alcohol consumption. He or she can cut off those who have had too much and prevent guests from becoming intoxicated.

Provide adequate lighting.

Darkness might remind many of Halloween, but an entertaining space should not be so dark that guests cannot move around safely. Be sure to illuminate all walkways and clearly indicate exits so that guests can get to safety if

necessary. Remove any obstacles on the floor that are tripping hazards, and be sure to use nonslip runners and rugs.

Practice food safety. Many Halloween treats and desserts contain nuts, and this can pose a hazard to those with nut allergies.

Label foods and attempt to make the party nut-free if there is someone attending with a nut allergy. Many foods can be left out at room temperature for anywhere from one to two hours. Promptly refrigerate any leftovers so that they do not spoil and cause foodborne illnesses.

of Halloween darkness. Routinely conduct a head count to be sure everyone is safe and sound.

Halloween parties can be safe and enjoyable at the same time. Enlist the help of others to ensure that all guests are protected while they engage in costume-clad fun.

Arrange for transportation home.

Guests who imbibe should have a safe and sober means of getting home. This may mean arranging for cabs or ride-share services for guests.

Keep an eye on kids. Children can get into mischief any day of the year, but especially so under the cloak

Plan a Day to Shop Local Fairs and Stands

Fall is a great season to enjoy festivals, farmer’s markets and craft fairs, as merchants look to liquidate inventory before they prepare for the rush of the upcoming holiday season. Cities, towns, hamlets and everything in between will host their share of open markets and more with great deals to be had, and fall is an ideal time to visit local shops and stands.

Fresh Produce

Farms big and small are bursting with produce come the fall. You can find the last vestiges of summer crops mingling with the first fruits of autumn. Grab the last of tomatoes and start thinking ahead to apples, squashes, lettuces and grapes.

You can even get an early start on pumpkin season - both for cooking and carving.

Stock the car with reusable tote bags and scour the farmer’s markets for seasonal finds.

Chances are you also might pick up some extra treats, such as fresh honey or canned jams.

Food Finds

As plants are harvested, many items are turned into delicious treats.

No autumn shopping excursion is complete until you smell a freshbaked apple pie or some apple cider doughnuts. Corn breads and fritters, cranberry snacks and wines from nearby wineries also are easy to find in autumn. These items make welcome additions to your own pantry, or bring a freshly made treat to a friend or family member’s home when paying a visit.

Also, don’t miss the food-related festivals that pop up on community calendars in the fall. From garlic to potatoes to pumpkins to cheeses, many seasonal items are on display.

You also can sample these foods in

interesting applications and make a day of gathering recipes and supplies to enjoy later.

Crafts, Jewelry and Décor

Include a trip to a craft fair, where local vendors come together to display and sell their wares, on your weekend schedule. Handcrafted items make thoughtful and unique gifts, which can be tucked away for giving later in the year.

Finding Balance with Extracurricular Activities

M

any high schools, colleges and universities emphasize their goals of producing wellrounded students. Extracurricular activities teach students important life lessons, provide them opportunities to socialize and often stimulate their minds and bodies in ways that differ from the stimulation provided in the classroom.

the issue since 2007. In their report “Extracurricular Activity in HighPerforming School Contexts: Stress Buster, Booster or Buffer?,” Jerusha Conner and Sarah Miles found that 87 percent of kids who would be considered to have packed schedules were perfectly happy unless they were doing more than four hours a day.

Data from the U.S. Census Bureau states that, in 2014, 57 percent of children between the ages of 6 and 17 participate in at least one after-school extracurricular activity. Children are more likely to participate in sports than clubs or lessons, such as music, dance and language, but each of these activities can be beneficial to students’ development.

The “over-scheduling hypothesis” may be overhyped. This is the concern that too much organized activity participation leads to poor developmental outcomes.

This hypothesis also suggests that hectic schedules also undermine family functioning, detract from schoolwork and possibly increase the risk of copycat behaviors and excessive competitiveness. However, in the study “The Over-Scheduling Hypothesis Revisited: Intensity of Organized Activity Participation During Adolescence and Young Adult Outcomes,” researchers J.L. Mahoney and Andrea Vest determined that, controlling for demographic factors and baseline

Students who participate in extracurricular activities may want to limit their participation to 20 hours per week. This is according to a group of professors from Stanford University and Villanova University who have been collecting data on

adjustment, extracurricular intensity was a significant predictor of positive outcomes and unrelated to indicators of problematic adjustment (e.g., psychological distress, substance use, antisocial behavior) at young adulthood.

use the cues given by kids to assess what students can handle. And children should be encouraged to be honest with their parents about their extracurricular activities as well.

Even though extracurricular activities are largely positive - even when schedules are packed parents need to be aware of the diminishing returns of too many activities. This is something called the “threshold effect.” Benefits from extracurriculars can level off when too many activities are being juggled.

If a child is experiencing anxiety, sleeplessness or depression, or seems overly stressed, it could be time to reduce students’ time spent doing structured activities.

Best Ways to Cheer on Favorite Sports Teams

A

utumn weather calls to mind sipping warm cider and raking leaves. But for sports fans, fall is all about sports.

American football, field hockey, ice hockey and basketball are just a few of the sports that make autumn an exciting time for sports fans.

Even the most ardent fan may have room for improvement when it comes to supporting his or her team. Here are a few ideas to make cheering for a favorite team even more enjoyable: Attend a Game

Fans who never get to see their team play in person may miss out on a unique experience. The atmosphere and energy of sitting in a stadium or arena cannot compete with a television simulcast. Ardent fans can resolve to attend a game in person this season. Enroll in employee entertainment clubs to receive discounts on sports tickets among other types of

entertainment.

Host a Game Watch

Build camaraderie with fellow fans by hosting a game watch. A routine sports night is a great way to get together with friends and family members.

Gather a group at your house each week to watch a favorite team battle it out on the big screen.

Or get together with fellow fans in the community at a sports bar or restaurant, combining a night out on the town with your passion for sports.

and youth organizations can encourage children to support local scholastic teams. Organize field trips to sporting events to involve as many students as possible.

Fall sports are heating up, and fans can do their part to support their favorite teams in various ways.

6 Great Gifts for Home Cooks

Come the holiday season, gift givers can put the same satisfied look on the faces of the home cooks in their lives by offering a variety of gifts that can make mealtime easier and/or more enjoyable: 1. Electric Corkscrew: Nothing complements a good meal quite like an appropriately paired bottle of wine. Cooks who are too busy in the kitchen to utilize traditional corkscrews, which can be timeconsuming and messy, might enjoy an electric corkscrew. Such corkscrews quickly remove corks from wine bottles, requiring little effort on the part of already busy cooks.

2. Cookbook: People who understand the joy of cooking often love to experiment in the kitchen.

Cookbooks can be an ideal gift for such cooks. Choose a book that provides recipes from their favorite styles of cuisine, such as Italian or Indian food. Or find a book that offers an array of recipes that allows them to explore various types of cuisine.

3. Cookware: Even the best cookware can only take so much usage, and chances are home cooks’ pantries can afford an upgrade or two. Gift givers should keep in mind that many home cooks have strong preferences regarding their cookware, so it might be wise to give a gift card or ask a loved one which type of cookware he or she prefers. Of course, a covert inspection of a loved one’s pantry might provide the insight gift givers need as well.

4. Rolling Pin: For the person who loves to bake, a rolling pin might

Fall Lawn Care Tips

S

pring and summer may be the seasons most often associated with landscaping and lawn care, but tending to lawns and gardens is a year-round job. If lawn and garden responsibilities dip considerably in winter, then fall is the last significant chance before the new year that homeowners will have to address the landscaping around their homes.

Fall lawn care differs from spring and summer lawn care, even if the warm temperatures of summer linger into autumn. Homeowners who want their lawns to thrive year-round can take advantage of the welcoming weather of fall to address any existing or potential issues.

Keep mowing, but adjust how you mow. It’s important that homeowners continue to mow their lawns so long as grass is growing.

But as fall transitions into winter, lower the blades so the grass is cut shorter while remaining mindful that no blade of grass should ever be trimmed by more than one-third.

Lowering the blades will allow more sunlight to reach the grass in the months ahead.

Remove leaves as they fall. Much like apple-picking and foliage, raking leaves is synonymous with fall.

Some homeowners may wait to pick up a rake until all of the trees on their properties are bare. However, allowing fallen leaves to sit on the ground for extended periods of time can have an adverse effect on grass. Leaves left to sit on the lawn may ultimately suffocate the grass by forming an impenetrable wall that deprives the lawn of sunlight and oxygen.

The result is dead grass and possibly even fungal disease. Leaves may not need to be raked every day, but homeowners should periodically rake and remove leaves from their grass, even if there are plenty left to fall still hanging on the trees.

Hi! R O C C O MY NAME IS

Repair bald spots. Summer exacts a toll on lawns in various ways, and even homeowners with green thumbs may end up with a lawn filled with bald spots come September.

Autumn is a great time to repair these bald spots. Lawn repair mixes contain mulch, seed and fertilizer to repair bald spots, which can begin to recover in as little as seven days.

Before applying such products, remove dead grass and loosen the top few inches of soil. Follow any additional manufacturer instructions as well.

Aerate the turf. Aerating reduces soil compacting, facilitating the delivery 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 it 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.

Fall lawn care provides a great reason to spend some time in the yard before the arrival of winter.

Turkey Vegetable Pot Pie

Serves 6 Pot pie makes for a delicious meal, especially when home cooks go the extra mile and prepare homemade pie crust. Some may be intimidated by the idea of making their own pie crusts, but the following recipe for “Turkey Vegetable Pot Pie with Whole-Wheat Crust” simplifies that process, ensuring a fun and easy time cooking and, ultimately, a delicious meal:

INGREDIENTS For the crust:

1 cup whole-wheat flour 1 cup all-purpose flour 1⁄4 teaspoon salt 2⁄3 cup corn oil 1⁄3 cup orange juice

For the filling:

1 carton condensed cream of chicken soup (organic

preferred) 1⁄2 cup low-fat milk 11⁄4 pound boneless, skinless turkey breast, thinly sliced into bite-size pieces 1 cup thinly sliced carrots (or frozen sliced carrots, thawed) 1 cup leeks, quartered lengthwise, then thinly sliced crosswise, using white and pale green parts only

DIRECTIONS

To make the crust: Combine flours and salt in a medium bowl. Pour in oil and orange juice and stir until moistened. Press dough to flatten and chill.

To make the filling: Blend soup and 1⁄2 cup of milk in a large bowl. Mix in the remaining ingredients.

3⁄4 cup thinly sliced celery 1⁄2 cup frozen peas, thawed 3 tablespoons whole-wheat flour 2 teaspoons dried herbes de Provence (or 1⁄2 teaspoon each thyme, rosemary and basil) 1⁄2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1⁄4 teaspoon salt

Preheat the oven to 350º F. Divide dough into 2 balls, one slightly larger than the other. Roll the larger ball between 2 large sheets of waxed paper until it is 1⁄8-inch-thick or until it fits in the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan. Remove the top sheet of waxed paper. Turn dough over and carefully place in the pie pan, removing remaining piece of waxed

paper. Press out any bubbles and patch holes with scraps of dough.

Pour filling into the prepared pan.

Roll remaining dough and lay it on top. Cut any excess dough hanging from the edges and crimp the crust between your thumb and forefinger to seal. Cut a heart into the center to allow steam to escape.

Place the pie on a sheet pan and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, until center of crust becomes golden and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the pie’s center reaches 165º F, covering browned edges only with foil about halfway through cooking. Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting.

Mediterranean Fish Stew Serves 6

Flavorful meals come in all shapes and sizes. When looking to seafood for flavor, shrimp shells are full of flavor, and even more so in the following recipe for “Mediterranean Fish Stew.” The flavor of the shells should seep into the sauce, making this a delicious dish best eaten with your fingers and mopped up with plenty of crusty fresh bread:

INGREDIENTS

12 mussels 1 large fennel bulb, with leafy tops 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 garlic cloves, crushed

DIRECTIONS

3/4 cup dry white wine 11/4 cups fish stock 29 ounces canned chopped tomatoes 1 cup cherry tomatoes, cut in half 1 pound monkfish fillet, cut

Scrub the mussels clean and rinse them in several changes of cold water to remove grit. Pull off the beards or seaweed-like threads, and discard any mussels that are cracked or that don’t close when tapped against the countertop these are dead and not edible.

into 11/2-inch chunks 12 large, unpeeled, raw shrimp, heads removed 1 pinch of sugar Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper Extra virgin olive oil, to serve

Remove the leafy tops from the fennel bulb, chop them coarsely and set aside. Cut the bulb into quarters, remove and discard the core, then finely chop the bulb.

Heat the oil in a large saucepan or wok. Add the fennel bulb and saute for 5 minutes. Add the garlic and saute for a further 1 minute. Add the

wine, stock, canned tomatoes and sugar, and stir well. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, then simmer for 5 minutes. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook for a further 5 minutes.

Add plenty of salt and pepper.

minutes, or until the mussels have opened and the fish is cooked.

Ladle the stew into deep plates or bowls. Sprinkle with the fennel tops and olive oil, and serve.

Add the monkfish and return to simmering. Stir in the mussels and shrimp, cover and cook for about 5

Gas Firepit: Gas firepits are touted for their convenience, as they don’t require homeowners to carry wood and build fires.

Upon being connected to a gas source, gas firepits provide fire at the click of a switch. Gas firepits are also appreciated for their safety, as there is little or no risk that flames from gas firepits will grow too large and become difficult to control.

Pour the apple cider and maple syrup into a large saucepan. Place the cinnamon sticks, cloves, allspice berries, orange peel and lemon peel in the center of a washed square of cheesecloth; fold up the sides of the cheesecloth to enclose the bundle, then tie it up with a length of kitchen string.

Discard the spice bundle. Ladle the cider into big cups or mugs, adding a fresh cinnamon stick to each serving if desired.
