By Craig Bakay Reporter

EMC News — About halfway between Sharbot Lake and Tichborne on Road 38, there’s an inauspicious Quonset-style building that from the outside looks like it could house any kind of business.

Looks can be deceiving.

Inside, it’s been home to Seed to Sausage for the past seven weekends. And although the bulk of the new company’s business is with the restaurant trade in Kingston and Ottawa, there’s a storefront that’s anything but your average business.

For instance, where else could you find duck breast prosciutto, venison and fennel sausage and chorizo, a Spanish-style salami, as well as a variety of unique cheeses,

jellies and spreads?

“We’re just a bunch of guys cooking what we like to eat,” says Mike McKenzie, president and operator of Seed to Sausage. “And if it’s not the best we can possibly make it, what’s the point?”

McKenzie began making sausage in his Kingston garage for friends and relatives … a hobby of sorts.

“I was the Underground Sausage King,” he joked He soon found he enjoyed the process and as he became more and more involved in it, the idea of turning it into a business became more and more of plausible thing.

One of the problems in Kingston though was finding a suitable facility because the food processing industry is one of the most highly regulated industries in Canada.

“We spend a lot of time cleaning,” he said, smiling.

“We have the second highest food safety rating in the country and we’re actually much cleaner than we have to be.”

But then, everything about this operation seems to be more than it has to be. They use processes that most commercial operations would find tedious, overwhelming perhaps, but then again, it takes time to create the products they make.

“We have two chefs on staff (Kalin Lawless and Gareth Hewitt) and we take a chef’s approach to our meats instead of approaching it like a butcher would.”

The chef’s approach means incredible attention to details most butchers wouldn’t even consider.

For example, McKenzie

goes to great pains to find just the right spices — his paprika is the most incredible colour of red — and uses all the local sources he can find.

He has a state of the art convection-steam oven, an immaculate smokehouse, a refrigerated commercial kitchen and a dry-cure chamber.

He’s fanatical about ingredients and processes.

“We use as ethically sourced and local as we can get ingredients,” he said.

“You don’t just grind the meat and stuff it into a casing with a bag of spices.

“But first and foremost, it has to taste good.”

And it does taste good.

Not only that, but it tastes like something you’ve never tasted before.

How many butcher shops have dry-cure chambers?

“I don’t know of anybody who’s doing this anymore,” he said. “Virtually nobody does it.”

Dry-curing is the essence of the prosciuttos they produce. It’s a centuries-old process created to preserve meats for long ocean voyages long before the advent of refrigeration.

And although the bulk of their business is for the restaurant trade, they also like to make their products available to the public through local farmers markets and their own store front, and you’ll find things there you won’t find many other places like Fifth Town Artisan Cheeses and other products that compliment their own line of sausage, bacon and preserved meats.

“We look for things that are a little different,” he said.

Central Frontenac announces new Clerk/CAO Reporter

EMC News — Central Frontenac Township has a new Clerk/CAO, Shawn Trepanier.

Trepanier will take the office vacated by the retired John DuChene on Sept.

27. Public Works Manager Mike Richardson will continue as interim Clerk/CAO until then, said Mayor Janet Gutowski.

Trepanier, 37, was born in Jonquiere, Quebec but traveled all of the Canadian provinces as a child until his late teens as his father was a member of the Canadian Armed Forces.

He has continued to be an avid traveller whose most recent posting was as Senior Administrative Officer for the hamlet of Whale Cove, Nunavut, where he was also a volunteer board member for the Nunavut

Municipal Training Organization and the treasurer for the Nunavut Association of Municipal Administrators.

Trepanier has a bachelor of science from Carleton University and is currently pursuing a master’s degree in business administration and human resources through Athabasca University. He has also had other training and education with the Canadian Armed Forces, Algonquin College and Nu-

Arden gets new store at Legion headquarters

By Craig Bakay Reporter

EMC News — It’s been awhile since you could buy bread and milk in Arden.

However, that changed this past week as the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 334 stepped up and opened a convenience store.

“There’s no grand opening or anything, it just kind of happened,” said branch President David Moore. “We didn’t have a store here and if somebody ran out of something, they had to go to Sharbot Lake or Northbrook.

“We see it as a community service.”

Moore said he wasn’t aware of any other Legion branch operating a convenience store, but Arden is hardly your average run-of-

the-mill community.

“We’re a small community and there are people here that don’t have the transportation,” he said. “You can walk to the Legion from most places here and let’s face it, people do run out of milk, bread and eggs.”

When you think about it, it’s not really that big a stretch for a Legion branch to operate a store as well. They already sell soft drinks, chips, chocolate bars and such. All they’re really doing is expanding the product line to serve the community.

“We’ll start small with staples like bread, milk, butter and we even have some cheese slices,” Moore said. “But we’re flexible, and if people will tell us what they need we’ll try to accommodate them.

“If we can pick it up cheap, we’ll have it.”

The idea came out of some Friends of Arden meetings and Moore said the Legion executive decided to “take a chance” on this.

“It’s all run by volunteers,” he said. “It will mean a little bit extra they have to do but not that much.”

The store will be located on the main floor and they have plans to build rolling shelves so they can be moved if extra space is needed for functions, he said.

For now, the hours will be the regular Legion hours of 3 p.m. til closing Monday through Saturday (Legions tend to close anywhere from 10 p.m. til 2 a.m. depending on the number of patrons there) although they’ll be “shooting for noon on Saturdays.”

Sunday hours are noon til 6 p.m.

navut Arctic College.

He has worked for various organizations such as Canadian Blood Services and Industry Canada.

He has been an active volunteer with the Canadian Red Cross, the Canadian Rangers and Search and Rescue for Western Nunavut.

He is currently engaged and plans to get married in May of 2012. He enjoys photography, music and

gourmet cooking.

Gutowski said Trepanier will be a “good fit” for Central Frontenac.

“I’m really pleased,” she said. “It was a challenging choice because we had a lot of very qualified applicants.

“Shawn even brought pictures of polar bears to his interview and we’re especially pleased he has experience in bears and waste management.”

Gutowski said Trepanier will bring “new energy” to the Township and “cultural sensistivity,” particularly from his work in the Afghanistan hospital system.

“We’ve had a lot of changes in our staff recently (with the retirement of DuChene and treasurer Judy Gray and the untimely death of building inspector Ian Trickett) and we’re looking forward to some stability in that area,” she said.

Fairmount Home celebrates its gardens and artists

By Craig Bakay Reporter

EMC News — Like many of the residents involved in the Fairmount Home art program, Evelyn Twigg didn’t think she had any talent for painting.

She’d taken art in high school but that was a long time ago.

Four months and several paintings later, she’s still not too sure about the talent part, but she’s still painting.

It took some coaxing to get her to join the Monday morning painting sessions.

“I kept telling them I couldn’t even draw a straight line,” she said at last week’s annual end-of-summer garden party and art celebration.

“I kept saying no but one day Vi (Yovanovich, Fairmount recreationist) came by and I knew what she wanted.

“I finally said yes.”

At Twigg’s first class, instructor Cheryl Pelow put everybody through some re-

laxing exercises, loosing up the shoulders and such. Then there was a lady in an easy chair relaxing and the students were told to paint her.

“I thought ‘I wish I was the one in that chair,’” said Twigg. “But she (Pelow) said ‘sketch.’

“I thought ‘I wonder what I’ve got myself into.’”

But she did ‘sketch’ and soon she’d done her first painting.

Then she did another, a horse.

“The second one took half the time,” she said. “Now I’m working on two foxes.”

She still can’t believe she managed the first painting, let alone two more.

“If you do something and then do another, you mustn’t mind doing it,” she said. “I lost my husband last summer and I wish he was here.

“He wouldn’t believe it either.”

It’s a rather common story,

Fairmount residents picking up painting for the first time and discovering they actually can do it.

Take Georgina Smith for example. She’s discovered a new pastime in her 83rd year.

“I didn’t think I could,” she said. “I didn’t think I had any talent.

“But everybody said it (her

first painting) was good.”

Smith has discovered that not only does she have some talent, but she likes it.

“I like flowers,” she said.

“And I like painting them.”

But she’s also started branching out with her subject matter, producing a painting of a ship that her son and daughter-in-law have in their

living room.

She’s also found another benefit to painting.

“I have Parkinson’s,” she said. “But I find I’m calmer when painting, just concentrating on that one thing.”

It’s not uncommon for people with Parkinson’s to find relief through art, but even if she didn’t, Smith would prob-

ably be painting anyway, she’s come to enjoy it so much.

And, she’s becoming quite prolific as well.

“I’d like to keep doing it but I don’t have much room,” she said. “But I’ll keep trying.

“Maybe for Christmas they’ll buy me some more space.”

EMC Lifestyle - There we were, standing in the African pavilion, making our way to the gorillas, when we got stopped at what my son thought was a raccoon.

I was happy just to get away from the python. Even when they are behind glass at the Toronto Zoo, I’m really, really scared of them. Snakes make my heart race ever since the childhood incident when my dad threw a big log from the cottage wood lot in the back of our station wagon and a snake (obviously, not a python but just as scary!) slithered out of the log, through the back seat, into the front seat, and up my leg.

We were in front of the ‘raccoon’ zoo exhibit when another family moved in front of us.

“Hellooooo, you little cute femur!” a woman dressed in head-to-toe pink cooed to the creature.

She pulled her son over to the glass to get a look at the bright-eyed animal.

“Look at the femur’s tale.

Isn’t he amazing. Helloooo, you little guy.”

“Honey, come look at the femur!” she yelled to her husband, who was slowly making his way over to the black-andwhite ring-tailed primate.

Parents who have young children are lucky if they ever

and put it in the shark tank.

He yanked it back.

“I don’t want to,” he whispered.

But I wanted him to touch the sharks and stingrays.

We’d come all this way. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. All the other kids were doing it. I didn’t want him to regret not trying it. He needed to be brave.

And then I saw the tears welling up in his eyes and, soon, they were rolling down his cheeks.

“Mommy, I’m scared,” he whispered, just before he wrapped his little arms around me, looking for reassurance and protection.

I could have just coaxed him (bullied him?) into putting his hand in the pool, but at that moment, I thought about the animal I’m scared of – and realized that no bribing, pleading or begging would get me to put my hand into a snake pit – so why would I expect my little guy to want to do the same?

We washed our shark hands and headed off to the next exhibit.

The playful polar bears made all the bad shark and stingray thoughts go away.

And then we saw bearded dragons, elephants, hippopotamuses, jellyfish and giraffes.

Oh, yeah – can’t forget the femur.

supposed team of choice in the OHL. I’ve heard these type of allegations directly from a number of sources that have significant associations with the Frontenacs. I’m sure the same charges are a reality in other smaller market areas such as Belleville, Sarnia, etc. Where is the league commissioner on this issue? It’s time the OHL cleaned up its act. The integrity of the league is at stake!

get to see a movie that’s not animated. My past year at the theatre has gone something like this: Smurfs, Kung Fu Panda 2, Rio and Gnomeo and Juliet.

But, sometimes, kids’ movies can teach you a thing or two: Like, I know the little raccoon-like creatures are not femurs thanks to the nutty King Julian and has band of troublemakers in the Madagascar movies.

Most days, I would have rolled my eyes at this woman (who was obviously not in the pink) while she basically called these creatures (repeatedly) “little cute thigh bone.”

But I’d already learned an important parenting lesson at the zoo. I’d had my humble pie (and my lunch at the Caribou Café) after we visited the Sharks at Stingray Bay exhibit, where you get to reach into a shallow pool and pet nurse, cownose and bonnethead sharks and southern stingrays.

We were told to pet Jaws and co. on their backs – and not to touch their tails.

Smiling children leaned over the small salt-water pool wall while their parents took photos.

I reached in and touched the shark and a stingray.

Their skin was smooth – like the soft stretch of our arm from the elbow to the wrist.

The spines on the stingray tales are trimmed to make them safe to touch.

I wanted my four-year-old son to feel the water creatures, too.

“Look at the shark. Isn’t he amazing!” I said to my son.

I grabbed his hand to try

a year of playing experience available to play next year. It’s time the OHL started enforcing its own rules. Certain teams, the Knights are often tossed around as an example, allegedly manipulate and circumvent the rules to get the best players.

Wade Belak: NHL enforcer Crossing a thin line? Children’s was a good kid as a junior books and childhood obesity In Our Opinion

Craig Comment

By Craig Bakay editorial@theheritageemc.ca

EMC Editorial - NHL ‘enforcer’ Wade Belak was found dead in a Toronto hotel/condo building last week, the victim of an apparent suicide. He was 35.

He was the third NHL ‘tough guy’ to die since the spring. Winnipeg Jets forward Rick Rypien, who suffered from depression, was found dead earlier this summer. In May, New York Rangers forward Derek Boogaard died from an overdose of alcohol and oxycodone.

I knew Belak. He was a good kid.

Back in the early ’90s, I was the beat reporter for the Saskatoon Blades of the

WHL at the Saskatoon StarPhoenix. Belak was one of the “big three” defencemen along with Rhett Warrener and Chad Allen.

Belak, at 6’ 4”, 210 lbs, was the biggest of the three.

He was kind of shy as a junior, but usually with a big grin, win or lose. He was a home-town boy and fan favourite, so you tried to get a quote from him after a game but it was usually of the “we’ll get’em next time” variety. Still, what everybody is saying about him being a nice guy who smiled a lot is true.

As a beat reporter, you spend a lot of time before and after games in the bowels of a stadium or arena.

And one chance encounter in the bowels of SaskPlace has stuck with me for a couple of decades now.

I came across Belak, along with Blades head coach Lorne Molleken, talking to two guys in suits.

One of the two spoke with a french accent.

Belak had recently been drafted in the first round by the Quebec Nordiques and the two men in suits were Nordiques representatives checking up on their prospect.

Their message was clear . . . get more physical.

Belak was nodding, but it was pretty clear he was uncomfortable with the conversation.

I asked Molly about the hallway meeting later and he confirmed that the Nords were looking for an enforcer with talent, and for Belak, that meant becoming more of a scrapper.

See, the thing is, I watched Belak night after night for almost three years and I don’t remember him as a scrapper. I can’t remember him ever starting a fight (other than coming to the aid of a teammate, which he did at every opportunity).

I remember him as being a good defenceman, who could also play forward, who used his size to clear people from in front of the net. He wasn’t the best at getting the puck up to his forwards but then he had Warrener and Allen to do that.

But he could handle the puck and even had a decent shot from the blue line.

After the game, I remember discussing that encounter with sports editor Ken Juba, who had a pretty decent hockey pedigree himself. We agreed that Belak, while a good, tough, stay-at-home defenceman who was rarely out of position, really seemed like too nice a guy to emulate Bob Probert or John Ferguson.

Belak was more of a Terry Harper.

Belak clearly did what he had to to get to the NHL and stay there, but . . .

So long, Number 4.

You’ll be missed.

and popularity.

The book, which is aimed at children somewhat younger than its protagonist, caused an uproar in the media. Many commentators suggested that young children shouldn’t even need to know what a diet is, and that the book sends a toxic message which idealizes a thin figure. Others applauded Maggie Goes on a Diet for presenting a sensible method of weight loss (i.e. positive lifestyle changes as opposed to a crash diet), and promoting an overall healthy lifestyle.

We believe that Maggie Goes on a Diet sends an overall positive message. While the title word “diet” is somewhat problematic, the subject of a healthy lifestyle should be an important part of every child’s education, and children who are overweight should be encouraged to improve their eating habits and increase physical activity. The lifechanging benefits of healthy eating and exercise not need be censored from children just because of the superficial messages found in movies and magazines. Furthermore, a concerted effort should also be made on the part of parents and teachers to demonstrate the difference between these images and reality.

Comments from the

WhatsHappening@theemc.ca Kingston/Frontenac

EMC Editorial - Few subjects are more sensitive than that of girls and their weight.

On one hand, an epidemic of obesity – including the childhood variety - is sweeping the nation, crippling our health care system and putting many lives at risk unnecessarily; on the other, record numbers of adolescent girls are being diagnosed with eating disorders, undoubtedly due to the countless images of “perfect” celebrity bodies found in our culture.

Fostering a healthy yet body-positive environment is - or at least should be - a major cause of concern for parents of adolescent girls; this is not an easy task given the fact that they have everything from Hollywood studios to junk food marketing companies working against them.

Such is the subject of a recent debate surrounding the release of a new children’s book, Maggie Goes on a Diet

by Paul M. Kramer. The book tells of an obese 14-year-old girl named Maggie. Sick of being teased about her weight, she slims down by becoming more active and replacing junk food with moderate portions of healthy alternatives. Her new size yields not only better health, but also increased happiness

The book launch, a free event, will take place Sunday, Sept. 25 at Bellevue North at the Holiday Inn from 11 a.m. to 11:45 a.m.

The event will include

Sacrifices had to be made during the Depression

By Mary Cook

EMC Lifestyle - The first day of school was ahead of us. Although Emerson lamented that he hated the very thought of going off to the Northcote School for another year,

Fraser and Smart’s drug store in Renfrew would be well prepared for the hundreds of children who came there every year for their school supplies.

The centre of the store would be cleared of all their regular merchandise, and long straight-legged tables would be put up in place of counters. And the school books would be stacked according to grades. The store would

saying he was old enough to get a job, we all knew he would be heading out the lane with the rest of us, come Monday morning.

Things were so different back then. Nothing was supplied by the school. Everything had to be bought, and for our family that presented a hardship that I remember as clearly as if that first day of going off to school were yesterday.

regularly and she headed right for the houses she knew would be glad to get what she had crammed into the back seat of the Model T. And as we drove through the still quiet streets, we could see other farmers doing the same thing. They all needed a few dollars for school books, and peddling produce was one of the best ways of getting extra cash.

Mother made wonderful sticky buns, and we were known for our fresh sweet butter, and our fat chickens seemed to be much in demand. And so it wasn’t long before everything was sold.

When we got to Fraser and Smart’s Drug store, the place was already full of boys and girls and their parents. My brothers and older sister headed for the tables with their supplies on them, and Mother took me over to the table that had a handmade sign on it which said “Primer Book”.

She had her little change purse clutched tightly in her hand, and she even allowed me to pick out one of those wonderful little wood pencil boxes that I loved so much.

With our arms full, we all headed for the cash counter, and a sales clerk added up everything on a piece of paper. As we always did, we ran our hands over the brand new books...spellers, readers, and smooth papered scrib-

have gotten the list from the school board, and also the Renfrew Mercury, the week before school started, would print what books we would all be expected to have.

I remember one year above all others. It was the year I fully realized what it meant to be the youngest in a family of five children who all had to have books for the Northcote school.

And also, how my Mother had to wheel and deal to come up with the money for Fraser and Smart’s Drug store.

That Saturday morning we were out of bed at the crack of dawn. Mother had set buns the night before, and freshly churned butter had been pressed into molds.

The brothers were sent to the chicken house to get four fat birds ready to take into town. Rarely were we five children taken into Renfrew on a Saturday morning. Always, a few of us had to stay home to do chores. But since we were all going back to school, we piled into the Model T, and with the butter, buns and cleaned and trussed-up chickens wedged between us, Mother turned the car onto the Northcote Side road for the l2 ½ mile trip to Renfrew.

And it was early morning when we hit the outskirts. Mother had special customers she called on

blers for Everett and Audrey, and rough papered scribblers for the rest of us. And a new pencil each, and there I was with the wood pencil box clutched to my chest. I pictured in my mind what I would put in it.

The sales clerk handed Mother the slip of paper, and Mother opened the little change purse and began counting out the money.

She bent over the counter as if to take a closer look at the clerk’s figures.

Then she recounted the money. It was soon very obvious to all of us that what she had in the purse didn’t match the figure on the paper.

Mother looked over her five children and the supplies we had gathered from the table. And then her eyes came to rest on the wood pencil box. She had such a sad look on her face that I thought she was going to cry. And I was close to tears, because I knew what she was thinking without asking.

I took one more look at the box and then set it up on the counter. The sales clerk subtracted the figure from the list and Mother handed over the money from her change purse.

She had only a few pennies left.

Nothing was said as we left the store and climbed into the car for the ride back to Northcote. I felt I had to say something, but I had no idea what that would be. I wanted more than anything to spare my Mother any more pain.

And then the thought came to me...it was almost as if some higher being had placed it in my mind.

“I don’t really need a wood pencil box.

The little drawstring one you made will be fine for another year. And besides my friend Joyce Francis lets me take her wood pencil box home any time I want it.”

She patted my knee and turned the car onto the Northcote side road.

Editorial

No shame in mourning the loss of Jack

By Kristyn Wallace Columnist

EMC Editorial – I wasn’t supposed to go to Toronto on Aug. 26. I should have been heading to a cottage near Orillia to enjoy one of the last hot weekends of the summer. But, like thousands of other people, I felt compelled to head to Nathan Phillips Square, in the heart of the hot, concrete city, to pay my respects.

I got off the bus at the Bay and Dundas station, threw my bags in a locker, and headed south to city hall. As soon as I saw the line of people that had wrapped its way around the building, I began to cry. They were the first of many tears I would shed during my visit.

One of my best friends had come to meet me. She was the perfect person to have there, a crier herself, someone who wouldn’t judge me or think I was silly for being emotional.

That’s when it struck me: why was I ashamed? Why did I feel so embarrassed for being sad that a man who inspired so many had passed away? Why didn’t I feel free to walk around the square, read the messages of condolence, and cry as much as I wanted to?

So that’s exactly what I did.

There was the mother, standing at the make-shift memorial of cards, flowers and cans of Orange Crush, who said to her son, “You can leave them if you want.” I didn’t know what she meant until I followed her son’s gaze down to his feet, and his black and orange sneakers. He seemed amazed at what he had just heard, and he bent down, slipped his shoes off, and placed them side by side amongst the myriad of other items that had been left.

There was the group of women that sang This Land is Your Land over and over again. There was the little boy drawing a giant bicycle on the concrete in orange chalk. There was the group of hundreds of Tamil Canadians, all wearing bright orange shirts with a picture of Layton and the words “Thank you, Jack” on the front.

Some people may have been able to experience this stoically, without being moved to tears, but I’m certainly not one of those people.

In her Aug. 22 column in the National Post, Christie Blatchford criticized Canadian journalists, particularly those from the CBC, for contributing to the public spectacle of Layton’s death.

While I don’t disagree with everything Blatchford wrote – the public broadcaster’s “Layton teaser” with the organ music made me cringe, too – it took me a while to figure out what really bothered me about her column.

And then I realized: it was the sheer hypocrisy of it. I’ve been reading Christie Blatchford’s columns for years, often defending her to classmates and colleagues who dismiss her as too harsh or too emotional. In that time she’s written several gushing tributes for people who have died, typically soldiers, police officers, and victims of crime. Maybe because Layton didn’t fall into one of those categories, he wasn’t worthy of her sympathy.

One might argue that, as a columnist, she is entitled to her slanted, emotional journalism, while most of the reporters covering Layton’s death were not. I would argue that, in cases like these, truly unbiased journalism is simply impossible. Many of those reporters had met Layton, spent time with him and his wife, and followed him on the campaign trail. What would be the point of trying to pretend they weren’t feeling his death personally?

Blatchford also attacked Layton’s final words to Canadians: “The letter is vainglorious too...

Who thinks to leave a 1,000word missive meant for public consumption and released by his family and the party mid-day...

Who seriously writes of himself, “All my life I have worked to make things better.”

To that I would say, maybe someone who truly cared about Canadians, even those he didn’t know personally, the way so many seemed to have cared about him.

We mourn people we didn’t know because we are mourning more than the loss of the individual. In the case of Jack Layton, citizens came together to mourn a man whose aspirations seemed simple: to make the world a better place. I mourn what might have been, and what our country would be like if someone with Jack Layton’s values were at its helm. I mourn the fact that a man who cared about things like homelessness and bike lanes and poverty is no longer with us, because the more people like that we have in our world, the better. I mourn, as so many others do, because it’s just plain sad. And that’s not something to be ashamed of – it’s something to be proud of.

Parham United Church gets new railings

Photo/Craig Bakay EMC Lifestyle - Charles Steele (Charles In Charge Construction) fastens the railing on the new ramp at the Parham United Church last week. The job turned out to be more than most imagined as the 18-foot support beam had to be replaced (with one recycled from an old barn) and a lot of concrete and rock had to be removed. But, said Charles, they only missed one Sunday service and the 170-year-old church should be open for business again this Sunday.

Got a sweet tooth emergency?

BeaverTails to the rescue

By Hollie Pratt-Campbell

hpratt-campbell@theemc.ca

EMC Business - A wish has been granted for Kingston area residents who long to indulge in the sweet taste of Ottawa’s favourite treat, the BeaverTail, a little closer to home.

Entrepreneur Denis Thibodeau recently purchased his own mobile BeaverTails franchise, called BeaverTails Thousand Islands, allowing locals the opportu-

nity to regularly enjoy nine decadent flavours of flat fried, whole wheat pastry.

Favourite varieties include the original cinnamon and sugar BeaverTail, as well as chocolate hazelnut and triple trip, which features the classic peanut butter and chocolate combination.

In addition, the restaurant offers smoothies with real fruit and 95 per cent fat free soft serve yogurt.

to Cornwall, so it’s fairly large,” explains Thibodeau.

“We can be in any of those areas, but seeing that I’m a resident of Kingston I’d really rather be working here.”

In addition to becoming a fixture at major local events like the Buskers Rendezvous, the Kingston Fall Fair and Feb Fest, Thibodeau hopes to get involved with fundraising events for charitable organizations such as the United Way, Hospice Kingston and Big Brothers Big Sisters. “[We’ll go] wherever they want to put us - wherever they think we can bring something to them from the point of view of sales and dollars raised,” he says, noting that he does not intend to keep regular hours for the shop.

“We’re going to be opening and closing either on a daily basis or a weekend basis, whatever is needed.

We’re primarily an events unit, so we don’t envision parking it in one location for three weeks. It’s just going to be all over the place.”

The restaurant enjoyed an extremely successful inaugural run several weeks ago at Belleville Ribfest.

“It was excellent,” says Thibodeau. “We had very steady business and for the two nights we were there we had solid lineups for three hours, so we were really excited about that. We hope that Kingston brings us the same [success].”

Contrary to what many people might assume, Thibodeau is expecting the business to really take off next summer.

“People think of Bea-

There’s verTails as a winter thing, but we’re actually primarily a summer business,” he explains. “We’re starting a little late here, so most of the events are gone at this point in time.”

However, Thibodeau adds that he is looking forward to taking part in the city’s annual Feb Fest, and would also like to have the opportunity to set up shop in Springer Market Square over the children’s Christmas break.

The BeaverTails truck is also available for large private gatherings.

“We have to have a guarantee, or at least a feel that we have an opportunity to sell 200-300 BeaverTails at minimum, because it does take a lot of work to get the trailer out, get it set up, and get it cleaned up afterwards,” says Thibodeau. “We need that kind

of volume, so it probably wouldn’t work well for a small private party, but it might work well for a large wedding.”

He is also looking forward to working with local Kingston/Frontenac schools such as Queen’s and St. Lawrence College.

You can keep track of where the local BeaverTails trailer will be popping up on their Facebook page, under BeaverTails Thousand Islands. To inquire about having the trailer at your event, please contact btti@ live.ca.

where they sell their wares every second Saturday. In the offseason, you can drive to the farm in Enterprise. Liv Simple Farms also delivers. They hope to soon have website-ordering available.

Simpson said she’ll also be hosting shopping parties for Christmas.

There’s nothing simple about Liv Simple Farms. In addition to the goats, Simpson and her husband also have a toddler, Griffin.

Anyone who’s ever had a twoyear-old knows that’s a full-time job in itself.

How does Simpson combine parenting a toddler, goat keeping and soap making?

“It’s hard,” she said. “Soap making is a night time job for me.

My husband does the bedtime routine with our son. I wait until after bedtime. I don’t want to be soap making with a two-year-old running around. I stay up really late. But it means I’m always at home.

“We’re just a small family making a living here doing something we love.”

Simpson freezes the milk for the cold-processing. She explained that when the lye mixes with milk along with fats and oils and is frozen, it doesn’t burn.

By the time the soap is completed, the lye is gone. Through a chemical reaction process called saponification, the fats combine with the alkali (lye). The products of the reaction are soap and glycerin.

The goat’s milk soap business has taken off this year.

“It’s grown faster than I’d anticipated,” said Simpson. “I started going to the farmers’ market in Napanee last year after I had a kitchen full of soap and my husband said, ‘Are you going to try to sell that?’ There are so many repeat customers. It’s been word of mouth. The house is full of hundreds of bars of soap. We’re putting in a new kitchen because now we have one that’s fully devoted to soap making.”

The next step for Liv Simple Farms is to obtain new equipment so more soap can be made at one time. They’ll be sticking to the naturally handmade philosophy.

You can check out the soap at the Napanee Farmers Market,

so good for the skin,” Simpson said. “Even before adding all the other plant oils, it’s a beneficial and extremely mild soap good for all types of skin.”

Liv Simple Farms uses only plant-based essential oils in their soaps. Simpson’s favorite is lavender. True to form, she grows her own.

“Lavender has relaxing properties,” said Simpson. “The scent helps people sleep. It can be used for headaches and insomnia. It’s so mild, it’s one of the few essential oils you can use directly on the skin.”

Liv Simple Farms consists of a small herd of Saanen and Alpine dairy goats. The soapmaking is done in an old-fashioned manner.

Simpson hand milks the goats every night.

“Handmade soap contains natural glycerin created by the soap making process,” said Simpson. “Glycerin attracts moisture to the skin. It is retained in the final product, unlike commercial soaps where it is removed, leaving the soap moisturizing and nourishing with a silky lather.”

Simpson’s been making natural body products for a number of years. She found her niche in goat’s milk soap. She started off using store-bought goat’s milk, but wanted to do it all herself.

“I told my husband I wanted to get a dairy goat,” she said.

“He rolled his eyes. But then he took me and we got our first three goats. I wanted pets we could raise and do something with. I didn’t want to send them out to slaughter.”

They started to breed them and now have 14 goats.

“They’re awesome, the most adorable creatures,” she said. “They’re all different and have personalities of their own.

They’re easy keepers, aside from the milking every day.”

EMC Lifestyle - Liv Simpson makes goat’s milk soap from scratch. Literally. She even has her own goats. And donkeys to protect them.

Liv Simpson’s a city girl.

She married her country boy husband, Justin, who hails from Enterprise.

“I always wanted to be in the country,” said Simpson. “We moved and stayed with family in Enterprise. It was a temporary thing that lasted six years.”

A few years back they bought their own farm, along with a couple of donkeys for protection.

I didn’t quite get the protective aspect to the donkeys.

Despite spending much time on friends’ farms and out in the woods, it never occurred to me that a donkey could be like Anubis, Egyptian guardian of the underworld.

“Their classic hee-haw sends away any coyotes that are nearby,” said Simpson. “Coyotes usually won’t bother you if you have donkeys. That’s good for our goats.”

I learn something new every day.

Ever wonder what’s in cleansers you use on your body?

Many of the ingredients in commercial skin products are not particularly good for you. For example, both sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and the closely related sodium laureth sulfate (SLES) are common ingredients in soap, shampoo and toothpaste. Both chemicals are effective surfactants, foaming agents.

They’re used because they are cheap. SLS is the same ingredient you’ll find in a car wash or garage, where it is used to degrease car engines.

Not only does SLS dissolve skin oil, it also dries the skin and denatures proteins, allowing environmental contaminants easier access to the lower, sensitive layers of the skin. Most disturbing, SLS is absorbed into the body. Once absorbed, it mimics the activity estrogen.

If you’re using Liv Simple goat’s milk soap, you won’t have to worry about harsh artificial chemicals scouring your epidermis.

“People probably don’t realize that goat’s milk is full of vitamins and minerals that are

Keep the food processor in sight not hidden away Food ‘n Stuff PAT TREW

EMC Lifestyle - You’re probably familiar with the saying “Out of sight, out of mind.”

This is particularly true of kitchen appliances such as the food processor. If it’s not right there on the counter in front of you, you probably aren’t using it as often as you could.

I keep mine within easy reach on the kitchen counter, and it’s the appliance I use more than any other except the microwave oven.

A food processor is one

softer ingredients. If you put all the ingredients in at the same time, the veggies would be unevenly chopped while the meat would be pureed.

Once the veggies have been chopped or shredded, cut the eggs in half, if that’s what you’re using, or break fish or meat into chunks.

Add them to the processor bowl, and process for just 10-15 seconds.

Stop before the mixture reaches spreading consistency because it is going to be processed more once you’ve added the mayonnaise.

After you add the mayo, process for just 5-10 seconds. It doesn’t take very long for the sandwich filling to reach a good consistency.

Too long, and it will be pureed into a paste.

of the best time-saving tools when it comes to food preparation. With kids and family returning to school and work, now’s the time to keep your food processor in sight and to put it to work.

For example, it takes almost no time at all to prepare sandwich fillings when you don’t have to do all the chopping, slicing and mixing by hand. Whether you’re making egg, chicken, tuna or ham, here are some tips to help you get the most out of your food processor.

If you have to chop celery, onion, carrots or pickles for a sandwich filling, first cut them into 1” chunks. Process them together before you add the main ingredient.

Because the vegetables are solid, they need more processing time than the

The food processor also works well for mixing cookie dough if the batter isn’t too stiff. Particularly with peanut butter or sugar cookies, it gives the dough a well blended, smooth consistency. No more lumps of peanut butter that aren’t mixed in.

Don’t use the food processor to make chocolate chip cookies however as the heat from the motor will start to melt the chocolate.

Muffins or tea biscuits can also be mixed in the food processor, but don’t over-process the batter. Otherwise, the baked muffin or biscuit may be tough.

Sometimes I use the food processor just to break up bananas or oranges for muffins, then I mix the batter by hand in a mixing bowl.

You can use your food

cream of mushroom soup or onions for French onion soup.

Keep that food processor out where you can see it, and you’ll find lots of other ways to use it.

processor to help prepare ingredients for supper as well. Shred cheese for tacos or tostados. Chop onions and celery for any dish from spaghetti to meat loaf. Slice carrots or cucumbers for salads.

And it’s hard to find a better tool for blending the ingredients for dips or spreads.

The food processor produces a smooth creamy texture, particularly when a recipe calls for a thick ingredient such as cream cheese.

I find that the food processor doesn’t work well for pureeing soups though as they invariably leak out around the top, or out through the hole in the center. While a blender is better for actually pureeing soups, the food processor can be used to slice mushrooms for

Regin anxious to shoulder bigger load for Sens

By Rob Brodie OttawaSenators.com Peter Regin is finally healthy again and hungry for a new beginning.

With shoulder surgery and months of rehabilitation now behind him, the Ottawa Senators centre is anxiously awaiting a shot at redemption when the puck drops to start the 2011-12 campaign. Surely, he can’t wait to erase the memory of a season which saw Regin produce just three goals and 17 points in 55 games before a left shoulder injury brought an early end to his year.

“Not only that it ended that way, but my whole season ... I know I can play better,” a determined Regin, 25, said at the Bell Sensplex, where he’s been taking part in informal workouts with some of his Senators teammates. “Most of the guys in the room know that they can play better. So I think we’re all excited to be back and to really show that we’re a better hockey team than we showed last year.”

Bigger things were expected out of the native of Herning, Denmark, on the heels of a strong performance against the Pittsburgh Penguins in

the opening round of the 2010 Stanley Cup playoffs — Regin was arguably the Senators’ best player in the six-game series — but he never hit his stride last season. Just when he felt he was turning the corner, Regin tumbled awkwardly in the boards in a Feb. 19 game against the Toronto Maple Leafs. He hasn’t seen any game action since then.

“The last five or six games I played, I felt like I was turning it around and kind of player better,” he said. “I was working toward finishing strong, and to get hurt and be on the sidelines was tough. So I was disappointed, but there’s not much you can do. You just try to do all the stuff you can do with the rehab and make sure you follow that so it won’t be a problem in the future.”

surgery and how it was going to be be. It was my first major surgery, but it turned out great.

I’m happy that I did it. (The shoulder) has been bothering me for two years now, so it was nice to finally get it done.

Now it feels as good as it did before.”

Though he’s entering the final year of his contract, Regin insists he’s not using that as motivation for a big season.

He simply wants to be the best that he can be.

“I kind of had a disappointing year last year and you want to turn it around,” he said.

“You can’t have too many bad years in this league and hang around, so I have to improve myself. I’ll try to relax a little bit more and just go out and play and do my thing. I think it’ll be better if I just do that.”

HOCKEY

After seeing his 2010-11 season cut short by a left shoulder injury, Senators forward Peter Regin is healthy again and anxious to rebound in the campaign to come (Photo by Dale MacMillan/Getty Images).

Senators invite 23 players to annual rookie tournament The Ottawa Senators preseason, sponsored by Canadian Tire local dealers, begins this week with the team’s annual rookie camp.

Twenty-three players have been invited by the Senators to take part in a four-team round-robin tournament beginning Saturday at the General Motors Centre in Oshawa, Ont. Joining the Senators prospects are squads from the Chicago Blackhawks, Pittsburgh Penguins and host Toronto Maple Leafs.

The Senators rookies will be led by Kurt Kleinendorst, head coach of the Calder Cupwinning Binghamton Senators, and assistant Steve Stirling.

Ottawa’s hockey staff will also be in Oshawa for the tournament.

The squad is comprised of two goaltenders, seven defencemen and 14 forwards (complete roster below). Eighteen (18) players were drafted by the Senators, three were signed as free agents, one player was acquired via trade and one is participating under an amateur tryout agreement.

Eight of the invited players saw American Hockey League action last season, while forward Stephane Da Costa, defenceman Patrick Wiercioch and goaltender Robin Lehner played their first NHL games with the Senators during the 2010-11 campaign. The Senators’ 2011 rookie tournament roster is also comprised of five first-round NHL draft picks – Jared Cowen (ninth, 2009), David Rundblad (17th, 2009), Mika Zibanejad (sixth, 2011), Stefan Noesen (21st, 2011) and Matt Puempel (24th, 2011).

The Ottawa Senators’ 201112 rookie tournament roster is as follows: Goaltenders: Robin Lehner (Binghamton - AHL, Ottawa - NHL), Matej Machovsky

Following his surgery at the end of February, Regin spent the first two months of his rehab in Ottawa under the watchful eyes of the Senators training staff before returning to Denmark for the summer.

“The (Senators) staff helped me out a lot and I’m thankful for that,” he said. “I came back here in July to have it checked and everything was good, so I went back home again and trained more.”

Earlier this month, Regin skated with his hometown pro team, the Herning Blue Fox, to test out the shoulder. Those results were encouraging as well.

“I’ve been skating a little bit with contact and stuff,” said Regin. “I don’t feel it at all, so it shouldn’t be a problem ... I was a little worried before the
