decided to get a little head start on my New Year’s resolutions. For those of you who know me, you’re probably looking around to see if pigs are flying. Even I got a little clammy-handed when I decided to mentally commit to this long-avoided commercial tradition. Usually I proclaim that living in the moment without any “shoulds” is the way to go, but of late, I see that some balance may be needed. So what tops my resolution list you ask? Well, without going into my usual long-winded explanation to justify why I’m breaking my own rules, let’s just say I’ve planned some improvements for my mind, body and…soul! To get the ball rolling—in the “body” department—this month I have scheduled a little work to be done on my smile, or my “grill” as my daughter would say. After injuring my front tooth in a childhood wrestling match with my brother, I walked away with a root canal and a discoloration that only intensifies as I get older. This issue—combined with some others—propelled me to finally listen to my patient, and talented, dentist who prescribed a special combination of veneers. No longer will I look at photos of me and cringe. This is where the “mind” part comes into play. One’s self-confidence is important to nourish for a healthy outlook on life. And, yes, I know there’s more to mental health than looking good and knowing it. I’ve decided to bring meditation back to my life, which always gives me such great perspective and enhances every aspect of my life, including relationships. Now we’ve reached the “soul.” I hope to feed my soul this year via better investments in my relationships with close friends, family and fiancé. What this really means is I’d like to give more of myself to more of my people. After all, the best gift you can give your loved ones is the best you. Find the best you, or better yet, achieve the best you with “30 Must-Dos for Health & Wellness...Now!” This matter-of-fact run-down includes a myriad of ways to improve your mind and body—all from local health and wellness professionals. At least one of them will make you say, “What a great tip. I’m trying that.” If that doesn’t get your self-improvement engine revving, don’t miss Style staff’s exposé on local, yet off-the-beaten-path fitness classes in “We Tried It: Local Fitness Classes with Flair.” Again, we bet that one of these will make you say, “I’m trying that.” Also in this issue, Morgan Cásarez shares her compilation of “Healthy Recipes for Picky Palates” taken from the cookbooks of local caterers. Lavash pizza with veggie marinara sauce? OK, yum. By the looks of the recipe’s

Drs. Venkat Tirumala and Rashmi Ramasubbaiah Q&A Q: What comes to you naturally? A: Venkat: The desire to learn new things; Rashmi: Smiling. Q: Biggest life inspirations? A: Venkat: My father; Rashmi: My patients. I meet the most amazing people at work every day—people who face their biggest fears with courage, and keep smiling through it all. Q: Favorite humanitarian cause? A: Venkat: Myrada (an NGO, nongovernmental organization, helping indigent families in India); Rashmi: Red Cross.

enkat Tirumala met his wife, Rashmi Ramasubbaiah, while in medical school in India. “I saw her when I was doing clinical rounds,” he recalls. “It was love at first sight.” The two recently moved to Placerville, working together as an indomitable husband-and-wife duo at Marshall Medical Center. In the past, the couple often had to spend long periods apart, forced to juggle different residencies, work schedules and parenting duties. “We were lucky,” Rashmi says, sharing her relief at their dual placement at Marshall. Although they’re in different sections of the hospital (Venkat is a pulmonologist and internal medicine physician, while Rashmi is an oncologist/hematologist), somehow they make 8 stylemg.com - January 2014

it all work, raising their six-year-old daughter, helping patients, and spending any remaining free time promoting causes near and dear to their hearts. Rashmi is a supporter of Susan G. Komen for the Cure and an advocate for breast cancer awareness programs, while Venkat is passionate about anti-smoking campaigns, as many of his patients suffer from smokingrelated lung disease. Despite their divergent interests, the couple supports each other in everything they do, and both emphasize teamwork as being instrumental to their success. “When one of us is busy, the other can pick up the slack,” Venkat explains. “We complement each other perfectly,” Rashmi adds with a laugh. — Amber Foster

Contact lenses are closer to your eyes; therefore, they’re less likely to affect your vision and tend to be more consistent than glasses. However, this does not mean that if your eyes change drastically, your contact prescription will stay the same—your local optometrist may prescribe a stronger or weaker lens depending on the change in vision. Since contacts rest closer to your eyes, it also means they’re more likely to change with your eyes—unlike glasses. — Cassie Leconte, Optician Dr. Shawn McDonald Optometrist 2802 Mallard Lane, Placerville 530-626-8440, drmcdonald.com

Q: What’s the difference between dentures and dental implants?

A: Dentures are not screwed in and removable, so they have to be taken out every night and cleaned with a special solution. Dental implants, on the other hand, are screwed into the bone with metal anchors, creating a solid foundation that acts as a tooth root substitute—meaning you simply take care of them like you would normal teeth (regular brushing and flossing); what’s more, dental implants also preserve your facial structure, therefore preventing bone deterioration that occurs when teeth are missing. — Dr. Antipov Galleria Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery 911 Reserve Drive, Suite 150 Roseville 916-783-2110, drantipov.com

Burgers ‘R Us

urgers ‘R Us is a sweet little diner conveniently located right off the freeway. Upon entering, my friend and I were greeted by the waitress who seemed genuinely happy. After perusing the menu, which had an extensive list of burgers, I chose the 1/3-Pounder “Awesome Awesome” Burger (two angus beef patties with cheese in between) and a Vanilla Malt; while my friend ordered the Aloha Burger—complete with teriyaki sauce and pineapple slices. Once the cook was given our order, the entire restaurant filled with the amazing aroma of freshly grilled beef. Our orders took a bit longer to come out compared to other burger joints, but the unprocessed ingredients and made-to-order food was worth the wait. The vanilla malt arrived first and was probably the best I’ve ever had: thick and creamy with a mountain of whipped cream on top. Our burgers were juicy and topped with garden-fresh veggies; each came with just the right amount of hot, crispy French fries. The attentive server came by a few times to check on us and even engaged in conversation, making us feel extra welcome. This is definitely where I’ll be stopping next time I’m hungry and heading down from the mountains.

I’ve designed and made pieces of furniture and turned bowls, but find my greatest satisfaction not in machine-intensive objects, but rather in the joy of handwork. AB: What types of wood do you favor and what are your sources? RF: My wood comes from many sources— perhaps a local felled tree or a recycled maple floor from an old school stage. Cherry and maple come from Tennessee, koa from Hawaii and olive wood from Jerusalem. I often hear from strangers who have unusual wood they’d like me to see.

Wood Working Genius by Abigail Blank

oger Filippelli, veteran teacher and woodworking artisan, creates heirloom-quality kitchen utensils from unique and exotic woods. His work can be found at the Crocker Art Museum Store, various local craft fairs throughout the year, and at his private studio and gallery by appointment. We recently caught up with Filippelli and learned more about his old world art in this modern day. AB: Woodworking is a very specialized skill. How did you come to develop your art in this medium? RF: I enjoyed 36 wonderful years teaching art and crafts in junior college and at various local high schools. I’ve always perceived the world through an artistic lens: Everything and everybody has shape, sound, movement, function and color. Throughout my teaching career, I showed in numerous galleries, owned and operated two craft stores and participated in juried art shows in California and Nevada. My wife, Chrissie, says I have creative energy in my hands that has to 20 stylemg.com - January 2014

manifest daily. I have worked in a variety of mediums as an artist and eventually settled on carving “keepsake kitchen” utensils. AB: Why did you decide to focus on kitchen utensils? Do you ever create larger pieces or furniture? RF: In order to make art an important part of everyday life, I’ve created a variety of utensils: spoons, spatulas, scoops, several kinds of salad servers, sauté tools, wok tools, cutting boards, matched cooking sets, chopsticks and pie servers, to name a few. I just finished a custom order for a curly koa pre-

AB: How have you kept the tradition of woodworking alive in the modern world? RF: Not long ago, I attended a workshop for woodworkers in Tennessee. I learned from furniture makers, college students and doormakers; it was invigorating. I was recently featured in a coffee table book called A Gathering of Spoons by Norman Stevens, after being selected by the editor as part of the modern spoonmaker’s informal “guild.”

AB: What types of tools do you use? RF: I work with lots of tools but my most important ones are probably chisels and gouges. Ultimately, the bowl of the spoon determines the “look” of the piece. Knots or shifts in the grain or color changes, to name a few, dictate the length, width and depth of the bowl. Perhaps I discover a fault in the substrate or just some crazy grain to work with. The rest of the spoon follows. One might say an event in the life of a tree can create unique “blemishes,” which often become my highlights in a design.

growing pains Q & A with Therapist Bob by Bob Parkins, LMFT

Q: Both of our adult sons are living at home with no end in sight—the 28-year-old was recently laid off and is in the process of divorce, while the 22-year-old has never left home, and has no direction or plan to move out anytime soon. We want the best for them, but we’re afraid they won’t make it in the world without us. What should we do?

Illustration © sx70/istockphoto.com.

’ve recently been reflecting on many of the couples I’ve seen in my practice who’ve struggled with adult children. Each couple loved their kids and wanted the best for them, but struggled with codependency and enmeshment—causing confusion between help and sabotage. The questions below are based on a composite of many people, made up to illustrate common themes.

Bob: If your oldest son is currently unable to support himself and is actively looking for employment, your support may be helpful, if temporary. Continuing to allow your youngest son to live in your home with no clear direction will do more harm than good. By giving him free room and board you’re protecting him from life’s natural consequences, thus removing his need/ motivation to become an adult. The best thing you can do for your youngest is to give him an eviction notice.

Q: Our adult son recently lost his license after getting arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol. I’ve had to arrange my work schedule to drive him to and from work every day, but my boss is becoming irritated with the frequency of my schedule changes. How can I help my son without putting my own job in jeopardy? Bob: When you’re young, experiencing natural consequences is important for developing maturity and learning life lessons. These early consequences are generally not nearly as painful or costly as the ones that can come later. Your son needs to experience the full weight of his DUI so that it’s hopefully his last. Going out of your way to make sure he gets to work may not only put your

own job in jeopardy, but it partially shields him from a critical lifeor-death lesson.

Q: Our daughter frequently complains to us how miserable she is in her marriage. We want to support her, so we’re considering suggesting she move back home until they figure things out. Is there another way we can help? Bob: Unless she’s in an abusive relationship, the best thing you can do to support your daughter is to stand back. Although it may initially be cathartic for her to share her marriage frustrations with you, it’s inappropriate and usually does more harm than good. When married children vent about marital problems to their parents, loyalties get confused and advice that’s intended to protect them tends to confuse and sabotage the marriage. My best advice is to encourage her to start marriage counseling and send her back to her husband to work things out. You may, however, choose to offer financial help if they can’t afford counseling on their own.

Healthy Recipes for Picky Palates by Morgan Cásarez

y the time we reach adulthood, most of us are well aware of the benefits that come with healthy eating habits—lower cholesterol, decreased risk of heart disease and improved energy—but making sure the little ones in your life get their fruits and veggies can be an uphill battle, especially when dealing with picky eaters. If filling their plates with five a day tends to end in a tantrum, we recommend giving Style’s collection of healthy recipes a try. Concocted by our favorite local caterers, each offers a healthy dose of nutrition and delicious—sure to please even the most particular palate.

WHOLE WHEAT SAUSAGE PANCAKES Submitted by Hannibal’s Catering & Events, hannibalscatering.com • • • • •

1 cup whole-wheat flour 2 tsp. sugar 1/2 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. baking soda 1/4 tsp. salt

• • • •

1 cup buttermilk 1 large egg 1/4 tsp. melted butter 3 oz. cooked turkey sausage

Mix dry ingredients together. Mix wet ingredients together until smooth. Whisk wet mix into dry ingredients until thoroughly combined (some lumps are OK; don’t over whisk). Fold in sausage and scoop onto hot, greased, non-stick griddle. When bubbles form on the surface, turn cakes over until other side is golden brown. Serve with butter and maple syrup.

Encourage them to help wash, chop, stir or mix whatever you’re making. Kids love to get involved and are more inclined to eat what they’ve helped to prepare. Grow an herb garden. Herbs are packed with nutrients and kids will love eating what they’ve helped to grow. Sneak extra veggies into pasta sauces, casseroles, stews and soups. Chop them small, purée them in the blender, or shred them to hide from picky eaters.

Buy organic. Organic produce, dairy and meats are richer in vitamins and nutrients and tend to be more flavorful than their conventional counterparts. Make subtle changes. Substitute brown rice for white, eat more whole grains (like quinoa) rather than processed ones, utilize healthier unprocessed sweeteners (honey, maple syrup, coconut sap sugar and Sucanat) instead of white granulated sugar, and opt for fresh fruits and veggies over canned and frozen products.

Fill the work bowl of a food processor with beans, garlic, olive oil and lemon juice, and purée until fairly smooth, adding in the reserved garbanzo liquid a little at a time if needed. Pulse in the remaining ingredients just to blend— you don’t want to purée the parsley and turn the hummus green. Taste and add more lemon, salt or cayenne if needed. A drizzle of olive oil and some lemon zest over the top looks nice, too. Serve with crisp vegetables, pita bread or baked chips. Serves 12.

ourkids DID YOU KNOW? According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: • Obesity is defined as having excess body fat, while overweight is defined as excess body weight for a particular height (from fat, muscle, bone, water, or a combination of these things). • Childhood obesity has more than doubled in children and tripled in adolescents in the past 30 years. • The percentage of children aged 6-11 in the U.S. who were obese grew from 7 percent in 1980 to nearly 18 percent in 2010. • Obese youth are more likely to have risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including high cholesterol and high blood pressure. • Obese adolescents are more likely to have prediabetes. • Obese children and adolescents are likely to be obese adults, which puts them at greater risk for heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, cancer and osteoarthritis.

GREEN SMOOTHIE

One of my favorite ways to get kids to eat a salad for breakfast, believe it or not, is in a smoothie. In our family, we call it a green smoothie, and my daughter loves it because of the green mustache she gets after slurping it down! The best part about this recipe is its simplicity. All you have to do is add 1/2 to 1 cup of chopped raw baby spinach, romaine lettuce, cabbage, collard greens or green kale, and the juice of one lemon to your favorite fruit smoothie recipe and serve! Surprisingly, the fruit and citrus overpower the flavor of the greens and just about any kid will happily drink it—as long as they don’t see what was put into the blender. TIP: Be sure to blend thoroughly and make the smoothie extra cold by adding additional ice or frozen fruit toward the end of blending. The low temp will help mask the flavor of the greens. Also, feel free to mix and match the types of greens you add. Spinach, romaine and cabbage are particularly mild and pleasant while collard greens and kale have a bit of a bite to them. I find that parents are most successful at getting their kids to drink a green smoothie when the quantity of greens increases gradually over time. Start off with just a 1/2 cup of chopped greens in a blender full of smoothie, taste it, and go from there… the sky is the limit!

Lake,” Morrison says. “And little by little, we got what we needed.” EDDOG is also quick to credit the leadership of the Community Services Districts’ Mary Cahill (Cameron Park) and Brent Dennis (El Dorado Hills). It was they who saw the need and the value of adding this kind of park to the areas’ recreational offerings. “Considering the number of families with dogs, a safe, well-designed dog park makes a lot of sense for [our] community,” says Brent Dennis, general manager of the El Dorado Hills Community Services District. Indeed, based on dog licenses purchased, EDDOG estimates there are more than 36,000 dog owners in the

county, accounting for roughly 20 percent of the entire population. Even so, it’s hard to know what kept EDDOG going for eight years, until you realize it’s about much more than just giving dogs a place to run. “It’s about nurturing a community,” Morrison says. “When you bring your dogs here, they get to run, socialize and exercise, but we as residents get to know our neighbors, form friendships, and start talking about ways we can all work together to meet our region’s needs. We have a responsibility to give as much as we can to our communities, and when we all pull together, we can do great things.” Although the parks are funded, EDDOG is still seeking financial support to add more amenities, such as water features for those 100-degree days, making the parks even better.

olly Morrison’s dogs were still puppies when she started working to build a dog park in her home community of Cameron Park. Today, Jessie and Bella are nearly 10 years old, but Morrison’s dream has become a reality. “This is an exciting day,” Morrison said in early November, as she got word the final pieces were in place to finish the half-acre Hacienda Dog Park. “We’ve been working toward this for so many years, and now it’s only a matter of weeks.” The park opened in mid-November and was the first off-leash dog park in the county. But it won’t be the last. Thanks to the efforts of Morrison and the El Dorado Dog Owners Guild (EDDOG), a second, larger dog park is slated to open in El Dorado Hills this spring. While it’s a great success for the group and a treasure for the community, it was more than eight years in the making. There was some resistance in the community and it was a tumultuous time for the local community services districts; as well, there was the issue of money. Even with financial support from the El Dorado Hills and Cameron Park Community Services Districts, EDDOG still needed to raise funds to bring the parks into being. To make it happen, they held fundraisers—lots of them. “We held wine tastings, we sold commemorative bricks, we started an eScrip program, raffled dog quilts and organized a once-a-year Pooch Plunge at Cameron Park

study, including the original pillars, balustrades and paint swatches. A historic photo and writings archive has also been created to centralize and organize information about the house and its inhabitants. As well, there have been unique opportunities to excavate the surrounding property, and some interesting artifacts have been discovered. “The Bayley’s had a Chinese cook,” says Tafoya. “We’ve found some interesting Chinese pottery on the property.” It’s research like this that can ultimately help historians understand the way diverse people developed a permanent community after the Gold Rush. A.J. Bayley, prospector and businessman, constructed the 22-room building from 1861 to 1862. Originally from Vermont, Bayley spent time in the Midwest before traveling to California in 1849. The Bayley House was to be his most ambitious business prospect. It boasted a grand ballroom, two women’s parlors, six fireplaces, mahogany imported from England, and a wine cellar that housed some of California’s first vintages. The outside walls were built with 300,000 bricks manufactured on the property. After the Central Pacific Railroad was constructed through Auburn, bypassing Pilot Hill and the Bayley House, the brick mansion became known as Bayley’s Folly. However, with the dedication of volunteers, the Bayley House may very well become the vibrant community center Bayley envisioned.

ad everything gone according to the original plan, the Bayley House may have become the grand hotel and traveler oasis it was designed to be. However, instead of following the originally proposed route through Pilot Hill, the Central Pacific Railroad was constructed through Auburn, bypassing Bayley’s dream of providing Victorian luxury to western travelers. Today, the 10,000-square-foot house stands in ruins along what is now Highway 49, a victim of both time and wellintended but insufficient restoration attempts. Despite its rough appearance and the intricate scaffolding encasing it, the house still commands the surrounding countryside. “Over the years there’s been a lot of talk in regards to restoration projects,” says Jaime Tafoya, public relations officer for the Friends of the Bayley House, a non-profit organization created to facilitate the house’s restoration. The homestead and property have passed through multiple owners since the 1920s; currently, the Georgetown Divide Recreation District—who regularly uses the barn on the property for community events and fundraisers—owns it. In time, the Friends of the Bayley House hopes the structure will be fully and accurately restored, ultimately housing a museum, community center and event facilities. The process is careful, but slow, because all effort is made to preserve the historical integrity of the structure and property. Fundraising is a continual operation, and help—both monetary and otherwise—has come from many sources, including the expertise of the California State Historic Parks.

At the end of a month, get a treat (pedicure, manicure, something fun!). Now, acknowledge that exercise is more about time management and placing health as a priority than it is about energy.

happy tidying 8 Post-Holiday Cleaning Tips by Kerrie Kelly, ASID

ttacking the holiday cleanup can be overwhelming. However, with a strategy in place it’s doable—and even a little fun. Don’t let the tidying up take away your New Year’s joy. Follow these eight simple steps to ready your home for 2014.

1. START WITH A GREAT ATTITUDE. It’s easy to grumble as you remove ornaments, put away presents and sweep up pine needles. Yes, it’s work, but its work that you can be grateful for—just think, you get to reclaim your kitchen and all that square footage decorations once ate up.

2. TACKLE THE LOW-HANGING FRUIT. An entire clean-up process is easy to get overwhelmed by, so create smaller objectives. Gather the ornaments. Bring in the tote boxes. Take holiday lights down, inside and out. Wash your festive dishes and the tree skirt, too. It will all get done. Small victories deserve a special treat once complete—perhaps an espresso when the tree is finished?

3. DONATE IT. Bring a big box to the center of your home and fill it with items that can be donated. Are there games that only got played a couple of times or outgrown toys and decorations? These are the perfect donation items. Or, maybe you already have a bag just waiting to be dropped off. Rip off the Band-Aid and donate the goods.

4. ROLL OUT THE TREE. For those who purchase live trees, take it outside and roll it around to confirm you pulled off all of your favorite ornaments. Once they’re all fetched, organize them; this will be the “gift” you give yourself come next December.

5. GET THE WHOLE FAMILY INVOLVED. Celebrate taking down everything with as much enthusiasm as you had putting it up. One family member gets ornaments off the tree and mantle, one sorts them, one wraps them, one rolls up the garland, and so on. It makes the work light and much more festive.

6. ADDRESS THE FLOORS. Pine needles and “party central” have most likely snuck into area rugs, under furniture and in the corners of your home. Thoroughly vacuum rugs and carpets and use attachments to capture baseboards and dust bunnies, too. This will prep the backdrop for a fresh start to the new year.

7. ENJOY YOUR SPACIOUS HOME. Once the tree is down, your house will feel like it’s gained another room. Where did all of this extra space come from? Remember this moment, because soon enough you’ll feel like you’re back to being too crowded.

for health, for the presents you received, for the past year, and for the year ahead.

•

Let the process of taking down the holiday decorations be a lesson in gratitude and a tradition for years to come.

8. BE THANKFUL. Take a moment to be thankful: for your family, for the time you spent together, for the freedom to celebrate the holidays,

reaking out of a workout routine (or rut) can be tough, but the team at Style decided to jump out of their desks and get moving this month—trying local fitness classes with flair. From belly dancing to boot camp and rock climbing to ninja training, we experienced plenty of sweat, soreness and accomplishment. Here, we guide you through eight of our favorites.

Local Fitness Classes

WITH FLAIR Supermen’s Boot Camp

Walking into the studio, Val Fujii, class instructor and owner, warmly greeted me and gave the eight attendees a brief intro (mainly for me since I was the only newbie that day). I thought I was in pretty decent shape, but that feeling was about to be put to the test. As the class began and the music started pumping, Coach Val started us off with some stretching and warm-up exercises, ending with a two-minute plank hold. Ouch! My heart was jumping out of my chest and a sweat broke. We then divided into groups of two and chose a station to start at (there were six total, each with a different exercise to perform). We then spent one minute at each station (30 seconds doing one exercise and another 30 seconds doing a different drill or a variation of the first to mix it up). In total, we completed four circuits and were given a brief water break between each one; if you felt like you needed an extra break or a second to catch your breath you were encouraged to do so. The class was intense—just like you might expect from a “boot camp,” but as far as challenging, it was as challenging as you wanted it to be; the amount of effort you put in was up to you.—GZ Areas of the body most worked: Core, shoulders, arms, hamstrings Length of class: 45 minutes Sweat factor: Drenched but not fully Price: 2x a week camp: $99/month with a 12-month contract, $139/month with a 3-month contract; 3x a week camp: $149/month with a 12-month contract, $179/month with a 3-month contract; Unlimited camp: $229/month (no contract) 38 stylemg.com - January 2014

AIRobics Endurance Sky High Sports Rancho Cordova, sacramento.jumpskyhigh.com It was love at first bounce. As I stepped onto my trampoline square for the AIRobics Endurance class, I was transported back to grade school, when I’d wile the afternoons away hopping my heart out. The class started off with a warm-up before moving into bouncing intervals—Mario jumps, butt kicks, low-high knees, froggy jumps and sky jacks. After doing planks and push-ups (hello abs and upper body), “jumping” laps around the conjoined trampolines, and partnering up for ball tosses, it was time to bring out the Sky Bands for resistance training. My arms and back began feeling the burn in no time. The 50-minute session ended with another round of planks and bouncing intervals, before a much-needed cooldown. Thanks to the small class size, our upbeat instructor gave us plenty of individualized attention and positive reinforcement. According to Sky High’s website, one hour of jumping on a trampoline burns 1,000 calories and is a low-impact, fat-burning exercise that improves balance and coordination. A thousand calories or not, one thing is certain: This workout has plenty of bounce and will leave you sweating and smiling simultaneously.—MW Areas of the body most worked: Every class offers a full-body workout (choose from “Speed,” “Strength,” “Endurance,” and “All-Around”), but the “Endurance” focuses on the core and keeping the heart rate up Length of class: 50 minutes Sweat factor: Sweaty, but not completely soaked Price: $7/drop-in or $60 for 10 classes

Core Elements

Fitness Solutions Diamond Springs, fitnesssolutions4u.net I was unsure what to expect when meeting with Joy Slavin for her class at the beautifully styled Fitness Solutions in Diamond Springs. Joy and I spoke briefly before class about my current shape, injuries and previous health concerns, completed some paperwork, and then jumped right into the workout. After two quick laps around the complex, followed by two more laps of a combo of side steps, high-knees, frog-leaps and sprints, and a few minutes on the stairs—the real fun began. The class broke up into groups and participants worked their way through stations inside the studio, focusing on isolated core exercises. Joy had us using a variety of exercise tools (TRX straps, yoga/exercise balls and Bosu balls) and varied exercises. After a couple of rounds at each station, we moved to the floor mats for more core development and a cooldown. Joy said the class “routine” is anything but a routine; rather, she likes to vary things to keep the body constantly adapting. Being my first structured workout in a few years, I was sadly shown up by all the other participants, but left encouraged by Joy and fellow classmates.—AR Areas of the body most worked: Concentration on core and overall cardio Length of class: 60 minutes (15-minute warm-up; 45-minute workout) Sweat factor: Winded and wet Price: $15/drop-in class or $40/four classes January 2014 - stylemg.com 39

TRITIED Local Fitness Classes WITH FLAIR

THE STUDIO Martial Arts & Fitness Roseville, trainatthestudio.com I’ve been working out at THE STUDIO for four years and have taken all kinds of fitness/kickboxing classes, but nothing like this one. When I heard it was a Ninja training class the first thing that came to mind was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But, alas, turtle power would not be the purpose of this class; achieving the ability to do what I did in second grade became my goal. What did I do in second grade? The monkey bars—they’re a lot different to navigate at 58 years old than they were when I was eight, that’s for sure. Who knew I couldn’t swing from bar to bar anymore, jump over a four-foot bag, climb a rock wall, or do pull-ups? Although my body has said “no” to going back to second grade, I am able to do things I haven’t done in years. And those monkey bars? So far I’ve been able to swing to two bars, but am working on the third. This class is by invitation only—you have to be able to do at least one pull-up and be in good health. If you have knee or back problems, it’s not for you. Strength training is important for maintaining bone density, but this class also incorporates cardio, ab work and balancing. Have you ever seen American Ninja Warrior? Consider this your starter course. It’s challenging but the sense of accomplishment makes it worthwhile.—DL Areas of the body most worked: Arms, back and core, with additional focus on legs and abs Length of class: 45 minutes Sweat factor: Since there’s less cardio and more strength training, you aren’t fully drenched but you do work up a sweat Price: Check with THE STUDIO for details 40 stylemg.com - January 2014

Climbing 101 Granite Arch Rancho Cordova, granitearch.com Entering Granite Arch, I was as clammy as they come; my anxiety about the unknown had gotten the best of me. Thankfully the instructor, Adam, immediately put my nerves at bay. After gearing up it was time to, literally, learn the ropes—from an introduction to the equipment and how to “tie in” to our harness, to belaying (controlling the rope as a climber goes up—and down—the wall, keeping it taut or providing slack) and understanding ratings. Adam continually stressed the importance of safety, communicating with your partner, and common sense. What surprised me the most was the amount of technicality and technique involved in the sport; it’s almost as much a mental challenge as it is a physical one. Although the learning curve seemed as steep as the wall in front of me, it wasn’t long before my partner and I were ascending the faux mountain—and feeling the burn. In two hours, I went from a rock-climbing rookie to having a new hobby. Besides being a great workout, there’s no doubt the sport brings camaraderie, confidence and a healthy dose of fun.—MW Areas of the body most worked: Forearms, core, hands/ fingers, back, shoulders Length of class: 120 minutes Sweat factor: You’ll feel the burn but not get super sweaty Price: $35/non-member; $15/member; NOTE: This class requires advance registration and includes gear rental

Ninja Obstacle Course

Strengthening Dance Drills & Flexibility Class Omi Mahina Tribal Fusion Belly Dance Roseville, facebook.com/omimahinadance If you’re looking to build confidence and perhaps bring a little of your sexy back, this class is for you. Lindsey Stewart Plumer, my instructor, is an experienced dancer who has concentrated on belly dancing for the past few years and is absolutely amazing. She stresses that you don’t need to be a natural dancer to thrive in her class, just practice. By the end, you’ll learn a few staple belly-dancing moves, such as the “Egyptian Shimmy,” and be able to put together your own small routine. The fast-paced tempo of the tribal music will have you shimmying your way to a fun cardio workout.—JW Areas of the body most worked: Abs, obliques, shoulders, lower back Length of class: 60 minutes Sweat factor: Increase in heart rate, but no sweat Price: $15/drop-in class or $40/four classes

6 a.m. Power Vinyasa Yoga

Zuda Yoga Locations in Folsom, Roseville and Midtown zudayoga.com Crawling out of bed at 5:37 a.m., I can barely open my eyes to get dressed and brush my teeth, let alone drive to Zuda. Thankfully I stay awake at the wheel and as soon as I walk into the studio, I’m greeted by warmth (the room is kept at approximately 90 degrees), upbeat music and friendly faces of about 20 other yogis. The class starts out slow (in a resting pose), but builds steadily to be almost dance-like. Linking breath with movement, we flow through sun salutation A, before getting into the rhythm of an energetic sequence. Before I can say “namaste,” sweat is dripping down my face and every other orifice of my body. After an intense ab sequence and “relaxing” hip opener, it’s time for savasana (final rest). Toxins twisted out and balance in check, I feel wide-awake (both literally and figuratively) and ready to take on the world— or maybe just the day.—MW Areas of the body most worked: Core, legs, hips, upper body, shoulders Length of class: 60 minutes Sweat factor: Fully drenched; shower needed immediately after Price: 30 days for $30/new students; $16/drop-in class; monthly unlimited yoga and other class passes available

Mixed Class The Dailey Method Locations in Folsom and Roseville, thedaileymethod.com This challenging class utilizes a combo of ballet barre work, core conditioning, muscle strengthening and yoga, and yields instant results! Immediately after the 60 minutes were up, I felt longer and leaner—just as the studio’s slogan says. With a bright, open space, skilled peers and the encouragement of my instructor and studio co-owner, Sandra Lemos, The Dailey Method was a wonderful way to start my morning. As a former track athlete this is exactly the kind of workout I’d been looking for: low-impact, strengthening, and an improvement in flexibility. Throughout the class you gain a mastery of your body as muscles that you may not have known you had before are isolated and worked. You will leave each class walking tall and toned, with your mind and body perfectly aligned.—JW Areas of the body most worked: Obliques, hips, thighs, back Length of class: 60 minutes Sweat factor: A trickle of sweat Price: $18/drop-in class

Allez! Franceâ€™s Finest Dishes by Sharon Penny Photography by Dante Fontana

46 stylemg.com - January 2014

his winter is the perfect time to head up to the hills of Diamond Springs where Allez! will warm you from head to toe with Rack of Lamb with Dijon Mustard and Garlic Crust hearty, delicious French cuisine. Food wise, I will admit to being a bit of a Francophile. The Allez! menu—featuring cassoulet (a rich, slow-cooked casserole of meat and white beans), coq au vin (chicken braised in red wine) and boeuf Bourguignon (beef stew)—was like a wish list of foods I’ve been longing to enjoy. Je t’aime! For starters, my husband and I shared the la plat de charcuterie, a house-made selection that included pork rillettes and two kinds of house-made pâté. For two people who normally wouldn’t eat pâté, thanks to Allez! , we are now officially converts of delicious spreadable French meat pastes. For mains, my husband ordered the rack of lamb with Dijon mustard and a garlic crust, served alongside French white beans. I decided to go lighter with the crêpes du jour, filled with seasonal vegetables in a cream sauce. The rack of lamb was cooked perfectly—the crust flavorful. My husband was most impressed, however, by the side of French white beans, which were not only soft and creamy but braised with chunks of meat giving deep flavor, too. (Bless you, France.) My crêpes were soft and rich, and the cream sauce for the vegetables was so simple and flavorful that I almost shed a tiny tear…so good, in fact, that I even ate the broccoli—and I hate broccoli! The atmosphere at Allez! is warm and inviting, and with only a few tables of fellow diners it almost feels like an informal dinner party in a small home. The knowledgeable and attentive staff make it disappointing to have to leave. As we were driving home, my husband and I were already discussing what we would order next time. Merci bien, Allez!

Rak Fried Rice with Pork

’ve been to quite a few Thai places in my life, but Rak Thai Cuisine in Folsom is the only one I know that plays country music. I have to admit, I’m not big on country music, but when we stopped in on a recent Monday I found the unusual choice kind of charming. The eatery’s décor is simple: earthy yellow walls, slate tile floors and grey ceilings, with a few scattered elephant trinkets and plants to round out the sleek vibe. There’s also a small patio space, which should be a fun spot come summertime—and warmer weather. We started with the aptly named “kickers,” crab and cream cheese wontons with minced imitation crab meat and an extra kick, courtesy of some zingy jalapeños. One of my favorite things about Thai food is its hallmark spicy-sweet pairings, and the perky wontons’ accompanying plum sauce hit that mark perfectly. I’m also a fan of anything peanut, so when our server recommended the pad Thai and was quick to mention it’s sweeter than more traditional (tangier) interpretations of the standby, I knew it would be perfect for my peanutty sweet tooth. Thin delectable rice noodles were wok fried in a sweet and salty sauce with juicy chicken (a welcome surprise to the overcooked jerky-like proteins typically accompanying dishes like this). My husband ordered his favorite: red curry. As usual, you can take your pick of spice levels (he got “hot”), and his nose was running by the end of the meal, which I guess meant the heat level was spot on. I always like a little snap left in my veggies, so I was happy to find the broccoli, baby corn and string beans al dente. To cool off after a hot meal, there’s a small but satisfying dessert menu: homemade coconut ice cream or fried bananas with coconut ice cream. Either way, the marshmallowlike treat is a sticky, creamy must-try. If you don’t have room for dessert, have them pack up a quart to take home for later. Trust me, it’s worth it.

WINTER CAULIFLOWER SALAD From The Glorious Vegetables of Italy by Domenica Marchetti (Chronicle Books, 2013, $30) Although you can enjoy this salad at any time of year, I find that its refreshing crunch is especially welcome in winter, when the foods we (or at least I) eat tend to be of the rich, stick-to-your-ribs sort, such as stews and braises, or oozy baked pasta dishes.

Place a steamer basket in a large saucepan and fill the pan with water up to but not touching the bottom of the basket. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Arrange the cauliflower in the steamer basket, cover, and steam until just tender, about 5 minutes. Transfer the cauliflower to a large bowl. Add the celery, olives, parsley, garlic, onion, roasted tomatoes and Chile pepper and toss gently but thoroughly. Sprinkle the lemon zest and lemon juice over the salad. Season with the salt and toss again. Drizzle in the olive oil, starting with 1⁄4 cup and adding more if you like. Cover the salad and let it marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerate until chilled if you prefer it cold. Right before serving, fold in the cheese. 52 stylemg.com - January 2014

dinner date Food and Wine for the Season Makes 6 to 8 servings. COOK’S NOTE: Any or all of the following items would make good additions to the salad: sliced carrots, sliced fennel bulb, roasted peppers or diced salami.

2011 JOEL GOTT 815 CABERNET SAUVIGNON Joel Gott comes from five generations of California winemakers. Although his parents started the Sierra foothill winery Montevina, Joel, too, has made a name for himself. He started at Kenwood Winery, then moved on to gourmet foods, and eventually started Gott’s Roadside in Napa Valley. He now owns three burger restaurants and his own winery—Joel Gott Wines. His first wine was a Zinfandel sourced from the foothills; after receiving rave reviews from both Wine Spectator and Wine Advocate, he earned his place on the map. Joel continues to receive remarkable scores for all his wines—an amazing feat considering they’re all so reasonably priced. The 2011 Joel Gott 815 Cabernet Sauvignon (named for his first daughter’s birthday—August 15) is truly a fabulous wine at a fabulous price (it retails for under $15 a bottle). It has aromas of cherries, blackberries and vanilla, with enough tannin to keep a true Cabernet drinker happy, plus a soft, velvety finish that says, “Drink me now!” The fruit for this wine is sourced from Napa, Sonoma, Lodi, Lake County and Paso Robles. After harvest, the wine from each area is aged for over a year, separately in oak, and then all are blended together—making the best wine possible. —Richard Righton Owner, 36 Handles and Relish Burger Bar

sun valley, idaho World-Class Fun in the Winter Sun by Audrey Medina

Sun Valley

un Valley Resort brought Hollywood glam to small-town Idaho when it opened on December 21, 1936. The country’s first destination ski resort attracted movie stars, Olympic hopefuls and visitors from around the world, but the little towns of Hailey and Ketchum stayed true to their ranching and mining roots—sheepherders and their border collies still trail sheep through Ketchum on the way to winter pasture, chefs are putting an international spin on local ingredients, and there’s hardly a chain store in sight. Arriving by plane wasn’t quite as grand as arriving by the train from Boise like some other guests, but with an early flight, a short stopover in Salt Lake City, and a time zone switch, I landed just in time for lunch. Sun Valley Lodge Pool

CHECKING IN No expense was spared when Sun Valley Lodge was built. Enormous windows in the lobby and second floor lounge immediately pulled me toward views of the outdoor ice rink and surrounding mountains. My room, filled with French oak furniture and rich floral patterns, had the same elegance and warmth that the lobby promised. Photos of Lucille Ball, Gary Cooper, Picabo Street, Kristie Yamaguchi and hundreds of other stars lined the hallways and kept me wandering, eventually leading me to the spa, the bowling alley and the outdoor heated pool. Skiing is the main attraction here, but dazzling outdoor ice shows, sleigh rides and a village full of shopping and dining options make it difficult to stay on the slopes all day. Looking for convenience just a few blocks from downtown Ketchum, I found a sophisticated spin on comfort at the Knob Hill Inn. When new owners remodeled a couple of years ago, guests got oversized tubs (complete with bowls of bath salts) perfect for soaking on cold nights, walk-in showers, radiant floor heating, and an expanded complimentary breakfast bar (try the breakfast pizza and fresh muffins). Touches of rustic iron and wood accent the sleek brown and gray interiors, the rooms are large, views of Bald Mountain are stunning, and the staff bend over backwards to make you feel at home.

For a crash course in local sheep ranching and skiing culture, pop into the Ketchum Sun Valley Heritage and Ski Museum. Ketchum’s most famous resident, Ernest Hemingway, spent the fall here for many years, leaving bits of his legacy all around town. Look for him in the back room/ vault of the Visitor’s Center (photos and a desk), a nice display in the library, his memorial at Sun Valley Resort, and his grave in the cemetery. Sun Valley has a vibrant arts community, and downtown Ketchum is filled with galleries and public art projects. Internationally known contemporary artists, traditional western painters, and even indigenous Australian artists are all well represented here. Sun Valley Center for the Arts and the NexStage Theatre offer a continuous stream of exhibits, plays and cultural events that will appease even hard-core culture vultures. If you’re looking for bargains and vintage treasure, several consignment stores and the Gold Mine Thrift Store are filled with quality clothing and household goods. Deja Vu specializes in estate jewelry and vintage couture, but be prepared to pay top dollar. Get a massage or any other service at Zenergy, and the place is yours for the day, including a heated swim-out saltwater pool, eucalyptus steam room, indoor tennis, and drop-in yoga and fitness classes. Zenergy recently doubled their size, and with 48,000 square feet of health and wellness treatments, you could spend your entire trip blissing out. 58 stylemg.com - January 2014

CARB UP Shorty’s Diner. Packed with Beatles, Elvis and other ’50s memorabilia, this Hailey breakfast and lunch spot serves everything from huevos rancheros to lox and bagels. Try the cinnamon French toast with a corn flake crust, and don’t leave without tasting Shorty’s thick, but very tender bacon. CK’s Real Food. Chris Kastner already had a large Sun Valley following when he opened his own space Bald Mountain, a.k.a. “Baldy” in Hailey. Combining his love of world cuisines with locally sourced ingredients, Chef Chris keeps his menus fresh and eclectic. Snake River Kobe beef, antipasti hummus, and lamb vindaloo are just a few of many surprises in his constantly growing repertoire. Enoteca. Modern industrial décor creates an intimate dining space in Ketchum’s historic mercantile building. Have fun pairing wood-fired pizzas, small plates of house cured meats, or Idaho trout and lamb entrées with a spectacular selection of Northwest, California, French and Italian wines. Michel’s Christiania. Ernest Hemingway had his own table in this cathedral of French cuisine. The menu offers classics like escargot and foie gras, as well as local lamb, trout and beef dishes. The wine list here is staggering, but the friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere will convince you to stay and try a few varieties.

Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you? My salon and spa found me. The location was a collaboration of a few wonderful people in my life. What was the first job you ever had, and what did you learn from the experience? I graduated from business school and learned right away that I was meant to be of service to others and at the same time use my business skills. How are you involved with both the community and your customer? I have been a search and rescue volunteer (canine unit) for more than 25 years. The sheriff’s department voted me “Volunteer of the Year” and “Professional of the Year.” Last year, I served as president of the Broadway Village Association. My passion is animal rescue—working with many organizations fostering dogs until they find their forever home. What life accomplishments are you most proud of? I’m most proud of my daughter and how she is raising socially and environmentally responsible children. What’s your hidden talent? Dancing. What’s your favorite place to eat out locally? We have several places that I really enjoy—Smith Flat House, Bricks, and Cascada for their great food and friendly service. What’s your favorite childhood memory? Sled riding with my dad and then cooking great food with my mom. What’s your favorite local business other than your own? The Lighthouse for gifts and jewelry; Foothill Printing and Design for all of my business needs. If you could be any other profession, what would it be? A wildlife photographer. And finally, customer service is…? Simple—be kind and caring. Serve like you would want to be served.

Describe your business. Happy Tails is a professional pet sitting company that specializes in boarding, inhome visits, overnights and live-in/extended stays, from Folsom to Placerville. Three years ago we established Happy Tails Petsitting; in November 2013 we purchased Waggy’s Pet Sitting. Why is your staff the best in the business? Our staff has gone through an intensive interview process to include background and reference checks. Our sitters were chosen based upon their attention to detail, Tamara professionalism, customer service and prior experience with animals. You won’t find Holt-Loeffler more loyal or compassionate pet sitters than ours. and Jerry Loeffler with What’s your biggest job perk? Sedonah and The satisfaction of knowing that our clients’ pets are being well cared for in a safe, Rhegan relaxed family environment. The biggest perk would be having the opportunity to get to know so many wonderful pets and establish a lasting relationship with both the HAPPY TAILS pets and their families. PETSITTING What’s your favorite local event that you go to? Cameron Park We really enjoy getting out in the community and participating in local events. One of our 916-628-5543 favorites is Pooch Plunge and Laps at the Lake, an annual event that allows the community happy-tailspetsitting.com to bring their dogs to swim in the lagoon at Cameron Park Lake. Everyone has a great time! And finally, customer service is? Service that leaves the customer fully satisfied with their experience. A big characteristic of superior customer service is the willingness to go above and beyond to fulfill the customers’ needs or requests.

Tom’s on Fire by Tom Mailey

hat’s it. I’m done wallowing in relative anonymity. No offense to Style or my main employer, Sacramento’s finest country radio station, KNCI, but there is a whole other level of notoriety out there and I think I want in on it. So, after much careful thought over the last 10 or 15 minutes, I’ve decided the quickest and easiest way to “grow my brand” is to pretty much create a scandal. In fact, it’s my New Year’s resolution. See, spectacle is the new spectacular. Shock, the new awe. The straight and narrow has worked fine for me to this point but I can’t help thinking there’s a whole other level out there...a new altitude with a better view. And by that of course, I mean your view of me. This is going to be great because in 66 stylemg.com - January 2014

the old days, creating success required genuine talent; plus you had to be hard working, charming, driven and lucky. But what worked for Tom Hanks isn’t going to work for Tom Mailey—mostly because Tom Mailey lacks every single quality that Tom Hanks has. But thankfully, there’s a whole generation of celebrities who have shown that all you really need to create is controversy. Just commit a few undignified offenses, preferably within shooting distance of a reality TV camera or a telephoto lens, and you should be good to go. If you can just shed self-consciousness like an old bathrobe, before you know it you’ll be streaking down your own personal street of dreams with ev-

eryone watching…and Tweeting about it. Of course, this formula isn’t anything revolutionary. It’s been going on since Elvis’ hips got a little too out of control for The Ed Sullivan Show. But thanks to the Internet and reality TV, it’s all so much more incendiary now—just what you need to ignite your own flash in the pan. There are several approaches one can take. You can go the “what the hell happened to him?” route and Botox your face until the skin’s so tight every time you sneeze you sound like a kazoo. If you’re trying to forever shatter an innocent image, start by going on national TV and shattering the innocent image of something like a “number one” foam finger. Tired of not being taken seriously as a badass, even if your face still has more peach fuzz than whiskers? Smoke weed on Instagram, then take a whiz in some janitor’s mop bucket and in no time your name will be soaring into the troposphere on gossip’s humid updrafts. And there’s more: public drunkenness, filing ridiculous lawsuits, filing ridiculous lawsuits while publicly drunk, punching out cameramen, divorcing to marry, marrying to divorce, naming your kid after a tropical fruit, going on social media and being stupid, mean or Charlie Sheen; wearing clothing made of raw meat, cooking that meat then wearing it again…the possibilities are endless. The only limit is how far you’re willing to go. So if over the course of the next year I get slugged in the mouth by Kenny Chesney for asking him when he thinks he’ll be tall enough to go on all the rides at Disneyland, or I “accidentally” forget to put on shorts when I go for a jog, or I spend a weekend downing boxed wine and then sue our cat for being emotionally distant, don’t sweat it. It’s just me, working on my brand.
