Becoming Authors Every story has a beginning, a middle and an end, a concept that kindergartners recently used in their writing at Lockhart Elementary School in the Massapequa School District.

The kindergarten classes hosted an author

celebration after the youngsters published their first pieces. During their “How Writer’s Work” unit, students learned basic writing elements like sight words and story structure, studied components of books such as titles and illustrations and practiced

the editing and revision process. allisonk@southbaysneighbor.com Students shared their By: Allison Kugel www.allisonkugel.com personal narrative stories with their classmates, teachers and special guests. Among the visitors “Give every day the week ahead, we can sometimes comb through What’s Happening were Lockhart and central chance to become the lose sight of the opportunity that Around Town in South Bay’s office administrators.

Neighbor as well as other local most beautiful day of your each weekend holds for us.

As I edit the Coming Events Long Island newspapers. Look life.” - Unknown

Let’s Take In Some Culture This Weekend

BECOMING AUTHORS - Lockhart Elementary School kindergartners, from left, Chase Mulhern, Genesis Centeno, Adriana Sinatra and Jonathan Wahl shared their personal narrative stories during a writing celebration. Photo courtesy of the Massapequa School District

When was the last time you took in a nice play, or a concert in an intimate venue? Perhaps an art gallery showing, featuring some local up and coming artists, or a museum exhibit?

I don’t know about you, but culture really feeds my soul. A weekend spent entrenched in the arts or science or history can feel akin to a mini-vacation, and makes me feel connected to my humanity and the world around me. Come to think of it, a nourishing hobby can do the same; whether it is volunteering at your local animal shelter, jewelry making, horseback riding (my personal favorite) or rockclimbing. It could be just about anything.

I can’t speak for everyone, but for those of us who are often entrenched in the routine of grocery shopping, play dates, errands and preparing for the

Around Town calendar each week for the newspaper, I see so many interesting and culturally enriching events taking place throughout Long Island. I will admit, I have been guilty of thinking, “Note to self. You have to go check this out,” and then I’ll get sidetracked and forget to go. I’ll let myself get so swept up in life that the days will get away from me. It happens to the best of us. But the twenty-four hours that we are granted each day are filled with endless promise, and we owe it to ourselves to make the most of them whenever possible.

When it comes to squeezing every ounce of opportunity out of each weekday in terms of career, I’m batting a thousand. But I’ve been slacking a bit on squeezing every ounce of life and enjoyment out of the 48 hours between Friday night and Sunday night.

Let’s make this a collective challenge! Each weekend, let’s

at everything the area has to offer, from movie screenings and crafting, to classes, lectures and music events. Next time something catches your eye, stop in your tracks, make plans and get tickets, or simply make a reservation. Incidentally, you would be surprised at the amount of free activities around town.

Feeling like a homebody this winter? Invite a bunch of friends over for a Saturday night potluck dinner and classic movie screening. Share laughs, memories and great food. Then take in some classic films in your living room. Maybe even break out a board game or two.

Do something that will have you skipping back to work or school, or the Monday routine, with newfound vigor. I’m holding myself to this one too.

Drop me a line and let me know how you made the most out of your 48 hours this weekend.

Celebrating Artists

Kennedy Catholic High School and the RoboCavs from The Harvey School.

All three of the Farmingdale High School teams—The Robodalers, VEXcalibur and VEXistential Crisis— qualified previously to this competition to advance to the NYS finals. The state level finals will be held March 2, 2019 at East Rockaway High School.

“This year we invested in new technology that is faster and more powerful,” said Team Coach Ann Grady. “By qualifying for States in the first two regional tournaments of the season, the teams have a great opportunity to experiment with various designs and programs to expand the robots’ capabilities. There’s still a

lot to learn, and I’m excited to see what they will be competing with at States.”

Farmingdale’s robotics teams have consistently qualified for the Southern New York State VEX Championship and have advanced to the VEX World Championship (held every April) for the past four years.

VEX Robotics was created by The Robotics Education & Competition Foundation.

Their mission is to increase student interest and involvement in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) by engaging students in hands-on, affordable, and sustainable robotics engineering programs.

January’s Charity of the Month is: PBS Community Foundation

how funding is used to purchase needed support and services.

While the number of individuals choosing to self direct their services is quickly growing, the PBS Community Foundation aims to provide support through grass roots, community based networks.

The PBS Community Foundation initiatives started with Big Time Glee, a singing group that now meets twice a month in Smithtown.

This group performs at various events such as Long Island Ducks games!

In response to numerous requests from the Self-Directed community, the Foundation created a similar group in Nassau, which meets monthly in Bellmore. This is called the Nassau Voice.

Aditionally, another initative, The Crafting Connection, meets every other week to work on different crafty projects or just to socialize and play games.

More recently, Self-Directed individuals are focusing on the health of their mind and body. The PBS Community Foundation offers Yoga Without Boundaries twice a month at the Yoga Darshana Center in West Babylon.

This center generously donates the space and Dan Elfawal, a certified special educator and yoga instructor, leads a free yoga class open to individuals with all abilities. Dan says the students walk away focused, calm and self confident. Through the practice of yoga, students build strength and develop coping skills, which can lead to a healthier lifestyle.

If you have any questions about this organization and their services, please contact Ruth-Ann Hartney at info@pbscommunityfoundation.org!

The PBS Community Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, was established to help people with autism spectrum disorders, developmental disabilities and other special needs. They particularly focus on selfdetermination and full inclusion in the local community.

Their mission is to help these individuals access the support and services they need to become active and productive members of the community, as well as encourage long-term planning and to support efforts towards establishing social connections and friendships in the community.

For individuals with disabilities, the movement away from inadequate and segregated institutional congregate custodial care has been taking place for 40 years. Now more than ever, individuals with disabilities are seeking the opportunity to stay in their own communities and pursue their personal goals, while receiving the needed levels of support to make full community inclusion a sustainable reality.

In New York State, anyone who is eligible for OPWDD Services (NYS Office For People With Developmental Disabilities) and enrolled in the Home and Community Based Services (HCBS) Waiver, can choose to selfdirect their services. As of September 30, 2018, there were 2,926 individuals enrolled in ‘Self Direction’ on Long Island. (Source: NYS OPWDD) Self-Direction is a person-centered approach that empowers individuals with developmental disabilities to create a life plan with supports that they chose, based on their unique strengths, needs and goals.

Firm and toned upper arms flatter a strapless wedding gown

S

According to Kim Forrest, the editor of WeddingWire, an online marketplace for wedding-related items, strapless dresses are the standard for wedding attire, and that trend is unlikely to change anytime soon. Style Directors for Martha Stewart Weddings agree, saying that roughly 75 percent of wedding dresses are strapless, although some alternative necklines are starting to become more popular. With so much attention directed their way, brides might look for ways to tone their upper bodies for the big day.

NORTH MASSAPEQUA - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 23, 2019 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

hopping for a wedding gown is a tradition that follows shortly after the engagement has taken place and the ceremony date is set. Some women have very clear ideas of which type of silhouette and features they desire in a wedding gown, while others are open to suggestion. Most

Arm, chest, and shoulder-toning exercises can be part of a strong fitness regimen. The upper arms and the shoulders have no fewer than nine primary muscles that will need firming for brides to make an impact while walking down the aisle. Tame flabby areas with exercise.

According to the University of Connecticut, the upper arms are a part of the female body

where fat tends to store, along with the hips and thighs. Toning this area may take a combination of diet and exercise.

Begin with the biceps, which are the front muscles of the arms directly above the elbows. Biceps are one of the stronger arm muscles, and bicep curls can help strengthen biceps further. Shape magazine suggests performing 12 repetitions of three hand positions, palms up, palms down and thumbs to the side, to really work this area.

The triceps are a single muscle that has three sections, according to Fitness Magazine. Doing triceps kick-backs, bench dips and triangle push-ups can really activate these muscles and cause them to become stronger and more toned.

Strengthening and elongating shoulder muscles may take a combination of exercises that work not only the deltoids (muscles surrounding the shoulders), but the chest and back as well. Arm raises, both with arms extended to the side and in front of the body, can work these areas well.

Brides who want to tone up can speak with a fitness instructor at a nearby gym to learn various ways to firm their arms, chests and backs in advance of their wedding days.

weddings A LOVEBIRD WEDDING focuses on true love, positive support and memories created with loved ones.

sweet potatoes, broccoli, greens, green tea, and dark chocolate all contain antioxidants that boost the immune system, states The Food Network. Avoid drastic diets that can do more harm than good.

Simply cutting 500 calories a day can help the average person lose a pound per week if weight loss is a goal. Simple ways to trim calories are to choose skim milk over whole milk and choose low-calorie snacks.

Cut Down Alcohol Consumption: Toasting to the future with a glass of wine may become rote in the months leading up to the wedding, but alcohol is a diuretic and a source of liquid calories. Alcoholic beverages dehydrate the body and cause it to hold onto water. If you must, stick to low-calorie cocktails like a vodka spritzer.

Our relaxed brides and grooms radiate beautiful confident energy throughout their day.

We worry about the details so you can be present.

Stress can weaken the immune system and make people vulnerable to illness.

fter the big question is popped and loving partners decide to spend their lives together as a married couple, a whirlwind of activity will ensue.

Although wedding planning is exciting, some couples may feel overwhelmed with all the decisions that need to be made before they can tie the knot. In this state of increased pressure, stress may build and health could falter. According to a Cornell University study, more than 70 percent of brides-to-be have weight loss on the brain, but shedding pounds shouldn’t be the only health factor to consider. Here are some easy ways to stay mentally and physically fit in advance of a happy wedding day.

Get Daily Exercise: Exercise is important for maintaining a healthy body weight and keeping stress levels in check. Exercise also can boost mood. The Department of Health and Human Services recommends getting at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity each week. Strength training exercises performed at least twice a week complete a well-balanced exercise regimen.

According to The Knot Real Weddings Study, the average cost of a wedding in 2016 exceeded $35,000, and that price tag does not include couples’ honeymoons. Some couples may not have the means to finance such lavish affairs, while others may want to save for larger expenses such as a house, while still being able to celebrate their nuptials with family and friends. Casual weddings can provide that opportunity. While casual weddings are less formal, couples will still need to keep some things in mind to make their ceremonies and receptions both fun and memorable.

Let guests know the wedding will be casual. Perhaps the most important thing couples can do when hosting a casual wedding is inform their guests that the ceremony and reception will not be a formal affair. Be as specific as possible regarding the dress code so guests don’t feel embarrassed if they overdress.

friends may still hope to serve as bridesmaids or groomsmen. Just because a wedding is less formal does not mean it has to completely abandon tradition, especially those traditions that can let couples’ closest loved ones know how much they are loved and appreciated on your special day.

Create your own traditions. Embracing some tradition does not mean couples cannot simultaneously create their own wedding traditions. Guests at casual weddings will likely be expecting something different than they’re used to, so couples should not hesitate to provide just that.

Couples should strive to keep things tasteful but not shy away from unique ideas that fit into the casual theme.

Don’t overlook logistics. Small details, like transportation, parking and lodging will still need to be arranged. If hosting guests at your home after the ceremony, make sure guests will have ample places to park their vehicles. In addition, make the same efforts regarding lodging for guests that you would if planning a formal wedding, as out-of-town guests will still need a place to sleep.

Casual weddings are always more fun with a theme. From a Mardi Gras theme to a garden theme or even a Baseball-themed wedding, a theme will add just the right amount of whimsy and camp to a casual affair.

Weddings tend to be formal affairs, but there are no laws prohibiting happy couples from hosting more casual affairs.

In fact, many couples confronted with the rising costs of tying the knot are doing just that.

Don’t abandon tradition entirely. Couples hosting casual weddings may not feel beholden to all the traditions associated with more formal affairs, but that does not mean tradition should be abandoned entirely. For example, fathers-of-the-bride may still hope to share a spotlight dance with their daughters, while siblings or

Tying the knot can be an expensive endeavor. According to The Knot 2017 Real Weddings Study, which surveyed nearly 13,000 brides and grooms in the United States, the average cost of a wedding was more than $33,000.

A greater number of couples are looking beyond traditional wedding venues and opting for more unique locales to tie the knot. Farms, ranches, and even in barns are some interesting ideas. The growing popularity of unique wedding venues may make some locations more expensive

than couples anticipate, but a willingness to tie the knot in a unique venue greatly increases couples’ options, improving the chances for an affordable venue.

Cut back on entertainment

Customizing experiences for guests is a major reason why today’s couples are spending so much more per guest than in generations past. Couples may want to give their guests unique experiences, but should not stretch their budgets or go into debt to do so. Don’t underestimate the basics: great music and dancing, and delicious food.

Tie the knot in winter

Summer and fall were the most popular wedding seasons of the last two years, and that does not figure to change anytime soon. Couples can take advantage of those trends by getting married in winter, a slow season for wedding venues and vendors, who might be more flexible with their prices. The most popular months to tie the knot were September, June and October, so couples who don’t want to wed in winter but want to avoid paying top prices should avoid those three months.

Braised Lentil and Chard with Sausage

By Kristen Link of Massapequa, New York

Kristen Link grew up in a German home where Sunday dinners often meant a feast of sausage or bratwurst. Now, an Integrative Holistic Health Coach and Founder of Wellness By Kristen (www.wellnessbykristen.com), she’s created an updated and more nutritionally dense version of her childhood favorite.

“This dish is comfort, homestyle cooking for the winter,” says Link.

“It’s a one pot dish, so you can make it during the week and have plenty of leftovers the next day.”

NORTH MASSAPEQUA - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 23, 2019 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

What You Will Need:

1 1/4 lb. sweet Italian Sausage 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 up diced yellow onions 1 large garlic clove minced 1/2 cup diced carrots 1/2 cup diced celery 1 cup diced fennel bulb (stems removed) 2 cups packed, roughly chopped Swiss Chard - stems removed and diced 1 cup green or brown lentils washed 1 bay leaf 1/2 dry red wine 2 1/2 cups beef stock 1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes salt and pepper to taste

Add in lentils and stir. Pour in wine to de-glaze the pan, scrapping any bits up off the bottom if necessary. Pour in the remaining stock (or water) making sure the lentils are almost entirely submerged. Add the bay leaf.

Let the pot come to a low boil before setting the burner to low heat and simmering with the lid off.

After 15 minutes, add in chard leaves and stir. If at this point the lentils still seem al dente or are no longer covered in liquid, add a little more stock or water until they are submerged. Season as needed with your red chili flakes, salt and pepper.

Place sausage links into the lentil mixture so that they are halfway covered. Let cook for another 10 minutes or until the lentils absorbed.

Serve with crusty bread if desired!

Enjoy!

to keep me warm. I was uncontrollably shaking and shivering from the inside out. I felt aches and pains and my eyes bulged with fright and confusion.

“What is happening to me?” I thought.

As a chronic baseline anxiety sufferer my entire life, I was in the throes of the worst and most extended episode of acute anxiety I’d ever known. I was experiencing five or six full blown panic attacks per day, generalized anxiety, agoraphobia and unbearable physical sensations. I feared I was dying, or worse, losing my mind and “going crazy,” a common fear among those with anxiety and panic disorder.

It all started when I was seven or eight years old (the age my son is now) and I began to experience intense feelings of worry connected to my physical health. As I reached my preteen years my anxiety

grew more ambitious and branched out to what we now commonly refer to as OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder). But at twelve years old it just kind of felt like this: “Lock the door and check it three times or something bad might happen.”

“Touch the wall as you walk by if you want to stay safe.”

You might recognize the above as obsessivecompulsive thoughts and behaviors or “magical thinking,” and you may have even experienced something resembling it.

By the time I was a teenager I had graduated to the trifecta: anxiety/ panic, OCD and depression.

It was also around this time that I discovered that my well of creativity, intuition and compassion ran deep. The spoken and written word became my solace, and the gift I felt I had to offer the world.

My highly sensitized being may have created anxiety, but it also blossomed into an ability to connect with others in a rarefied way, and to express myself as a successful journalist and writer.

This excerpt from my book was also published by the ADAA - Anxiety and Depression Association of America, with the purpose of lending my voice and support to this community.

After years of asking, “Why me?” I never again have to ask that question.

Through sharing my story in the media, and through

speaking engagements, I have turned it around from a challenge to a gift.

Many of you read my Living Well column each week where I shared what I have learned about living your best life. Like you, my wisdom was hard earned through years of ups and downs, and evolution.

One of my major downs was years of suffering with anxiety and panic attacks. Since having my book, Journaling Fame: A memoir of a life unhinged and on the record, come out in the spring of 2017, I have come to learn just how common this is. Forty million Americans suffer with, or have suffered from, various forms of anxiety, depression, OCD and panic attacks. If you are currently struggling with this, know that you are not alone.

My Journey With Anxiety

STEAM activities have had a holiday theme throughout December at Lockhart Elementary School in the Massapequa School District. These hands-on projects focusing on science, technology, engineering, the arts and math have delighted students with seasonal connections.

Under the direction of Magnet and STEAM teacher Joanne Markowski, first-graders

were charged with making snowmen out of Crayola Model Magic, a material similar to clay. Each team had to make a small, medium and large sphere before they could add the details like arms, buttons, eyes, a nose and scarf. The activity emphasized the importance of following step-by-step directions to successfully complete a project.

This is going to be a lengthy review, but please stick with it and read it till the end, because I have so many reasons that Michele and Mark Goodman were the absolute best realtors that we could have ever hoped for. And I want to share that with you. My wife and I had decided to put our home in Bar Harbour, Massapequa Park on the market to be closer to my job and make it an easier commute for me. This was not an easy decision for us, because we had lived in our home for 40 years & loved every minute. We decided to attend an open house that Michele Goodman was hosting, and were impressed from the start with the way Michele Goodman conducted the open house & spoke to the buyers. My husband and I decided to ask her to come over to our home and talk to us about possibly listing our home. Michele and her husband, Mark, work as a team.

Their presentation was professional and thorough, as was the time that they took looking at our house and appraising it. My husband and I had a comfort level with them.

Their knowledge of our area, and the amount of homes that they had sold in our area was impressive. It was an easy decision for us to sign with Michele and Mark Goodman to sell our house. As we started to get offers, we quickly realized that Michele’s negotiating skills were exceptional, and helped us to secure the best price for our home. They advertised our home in local newspapers & their willingness to have open houses whenever we wanted, gave us peace of mind. They advised us and educated us from start to finish and there was never a question that they didn’t have time to answer, and they made themselves available to us 7 days a week. Thanks to their expertise, marketing, and superior negotiating skills, we got a great offer on our house, and the process was made so much easier having Michele and Mark at the helm. My husband and I would whole-heartedly recommend them to any buyers or sellers who want experienced agents who give their “all” for their clients... Laurie & Mark A MUST SEE! THE VERY BEST!
