A: When someone passes me on the freeway and then slows way down in front of me. Q: Biggest life inspirations? A: My Great-Uncle Alex. He was an extremely successful businessman with only a third grade education. He always stressed the importance of getting my college degree, which when I was younger baffled me. He inspired me to always do my best in each class and to apply what I learned. My starting point doesn’t decide where I end up in life. Another is my bride; she’s my “why” for everything that I do.

WHAT’S IN

SEASON? Pumpkins

they became jack-o-lanterns. Pumpkin pie is thought to have originated when colonists sliced off the pumpkin top, removed the seeds, and then filled it with milk, spices and honey; the pumpkin was then baked in the hot ashes of a dying fire.

SELECTION AND STORAGE The pumpkin is a winter squash, known for its thick, hard skin. Look for mature pumpkins that give a woody note when tapped (like a hollow log), feel heavy and have a sturdy stem. Leave the ones with wrinkled surfaces, cuts or bruises behind. Uncut, pumpkins and other winter squash will keep for months when stored in a cool, dark ventilated place and on straw or cardboard (not on the cement floor or your nice rug). Cut jack-olanterns will last longer if soaked in a solution of one teaspoon of bleach per one gallon of water overnight (cover the whole pumpkin in the solution, then invert it the next morning to drain and dry). Spray the same formula on the cut pumpkin daily to prolong its time on your porch.

ask the expert Q:

I’m looking for a stable, helpful environment for my mother. What are the advantages of assisted living?

A: Depending upon your mother’s individual needs, assisted living can be an excellent choice to enhance the quality of her life. In addition to the provision of support services su ch as h ealth a n d we ll - b eing monitoring, medication support and healthy meal choices, assisted living provides a social and interactive environment—one of its primary benefits. Assisted living is licensed by the State Department of Social Services, which requires staffing and amenities to ensure safe and stable surroundings. Isolation and loneliness are quite prevalent in older adults living alone, and assisted living provides just the right environment to feel secure and happy. —Betsy Donovan, Chief Operating Officer Eskaton 5105 Manzanita Avenue, Carmichael 916-334-0810, eskaton.org Additional locations in Roseville, Granite Bay and surrounding areas

2. Women with dense breasts have a higher chance of getting the disease, and their cancer may not be visible on a mammogram. 3. One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, with a mean age of 61 at diagnosis. 4. There’s no evidence that hair dye or antiperspirant increase your risk. 5. Growing evidence suggests that women who get regular physical activity have a 10-25-percent lower risk. Avoiding weight gain and obesity and minimizing alcohol intake may also help to reduce one’s risk. 6. Research shows—and all the national health organizations agree—that the most lives will be saved if women begin mammogram screening at age 40 and have one each year. 7. Recent research indicates that long-term, heavy smoking may increase breast cancer risk, particularly among women who start smoking before their first pregnancy. 8. For women at 20 years of age, the risk is 1 in 1,674. At 30, it’s 1 in 225, increasing to 1 in 69 at age 40, 1 in 44 at age 50, 1 in 29 at age 60, and 1 in 26 at age 70. 9. Breast cancer typically produces no symptoms. 10. Although there is a small amount of radiation with a mammogram, many women get exposed to the same amount each year walking around from environmental radiation. — Compiled by Megan Wiskus

Garden of Eat’n

hat do you order here?” a returning customer asks me. “This is my first time,” I tell her. “It’s addicting!” she assures. This was the most promising first impression I could have received at Garden of Eat’n, Roseville’s latest lunch spot. A compact of franchises and superstores hides the healthy haven, whose name toys with the biblical Garden of Eden. A fitting allusion, actually, as the fresh and bright ingredient selection, minimalist interior and young atmosphere are probably as divine as Eden itself. The lively location contrasts with the relaxed vibe and offers customers a reviving break from the surrounding bustling business plazas. Guests enter, choose between a “build your own salad/wrap” and begin crafting their meal from the ground up: starting with the tortilla flavor, dressing, vegetable and fruit ingredients, and finishing with a choice of protein. I created a wrap with a tomato and basil tortilla, chipotle dressing, olives, red peppers, onions, kidney beans, romaine lettuce and tri-tip. Being my first time, I winged it on the selections, but my wrap tasted and felt as fresh as it looked, and I’m sure the same could be said for any other combination. And if you aren’t confident in your building abilities, the fixed-recipe wraps and salads are equally—if not more—delicious. In a time where fast food dominates on-the-go dining, Garden of Eat’n truly is a refreshing and guilt-free reminder of what food should taste like.

1916

The year a tragic double murder shocked Roseville. Clotide Paolini and her two-year-old son Marino were discovered in a ravine, both shot. The murderer was never found, and local police at the time suspected organized crime group The Black Hand. The two were buried in Roseville Cemetery, if it’s not already spooky enough for you.

“Land Ocean New American Grill has a yummy vegetarian frittata with eggs, country potatoes, Gruyere and Cheddar cheeses, sautéed spinach and mushrooms; plus, it’s served with sourdough toast and jam.

The number of children who died at the historic Auburn White House during the late 1800s, at the time owned by Walter Lyon and wife Mary. Four of their children died between February and March 1866. Then, in 1874, their seven-year-old daughter died. Rumors of phantoms walking the halls of the home persist to this day.

1930s

When the Ku Klux Klan is rumored to have met near Dyer Lane in Elverta. Between the KKK meetings and the many rumored mysterious deaths near Dyer Lane (a police officer and a high school student), it’s all the perfect kind of nightmare fuel that’s helped create one of Sacramento’s “most haunted” sites. If you don’t believe all the rumors, you’re more than welcome to go check it out. No, it’s fine, we’ll wait here…

“Paul Martin’s American Grill is an obvious choice for Happy Hour or a nice dinner, but their brunch is equally fantastic! Served Sundays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., the prix fixe menu includes your choice of entrée, beverage (yes, mimomas are included!), seasonal fruit and fresh-baked blueberry bread with honey-lemon butter.

4 Yoga Practices to Try //

oga does every body good. Internally and externally, from your head to your toes, it works wonders on the mind, body and spirit. So it’s no surprise yoga is just as popular as golf. Whether you have yet to find yourself in downward-facing dog or you can hold a headstand for a couple minutes, both beginners and yoga experts can reap the rewards of the many different styles available. Read on to learn which types are offered around the region (only a small

3 / Ashtanga This style of yoga was codified and popularized by K. Pattabhi Jois during the 20th century, and is often promoted as a modern-day form of classical Indian yoga, Devine says. “Ashtanga means eight limbs or branches, of which asana or physical yoga posture is merely one branch, breathing (or pranayama) is another...These two, along with six other branches of study, make up all eight limbs.” According to Gretta Smith, owner of Ohana Moon Yoga in Cameron Park, ashtanga classes feature the basic dynamic recurring vinyasa flow, as well as the stillness and precision of Bikram (hot yoga). Health benefits: Ashtanga helps to detox the body and is great for yogis looking for strength and discipline. You’ll become stronger, have a calmer mind and improve circulation.

1 / Restorative Also known as yin yoga, this style is soft and gentle, says Christian Devine, a yoga instructor at Roseville Health and Wellness Center. “It is simply a centering of your breath and body, aligning your physical and mental functions by practicing stillness or gentle movement for extended periods of time,” he says. Health benefits: Anyone—beginner to advanced, younger to older adults—can benefit from a restorative yoga class. “It slows down the pace of life,” Devine says. “It’s soothing to the nervous system, encourages mindfulness, cultivates heightened body awareness, deepens self-awareness and introspection, strengthens acceptance and detachment, helps you feel safe and more.”

2 / Vinyasa Referring to a flow or “arranging something in a special way,” vinyasa is an arrangement of yoga poses that flow together. “Students coordinate movement with their breath to flow from one pose to the next,” Devine says. Vinyasa is a great complement to other sports or activities, such as running, cycling, swimming, etc. “It’s more than a workout—it’s about connection to your mind and body, along with a community connection,” says Ronda Kamka, co-owner of Zuda Yoga Folsom. Health benefits: During a vinyasa flow, students will improve blood circulation, help their lungs work more efficiently, improve cardiovascular health, promote healthy

Hatha yoga refers to the practice of physical yoga postures, meaning your ashtanga, vinyasa, iyengar and power yoga classes are all hatha yoga, Devine says. “The word ‘hatha’ can be translated as ‘sun’ (ha) and ‘moon’ (tha), or the yoga of balance,” he adds. Health benefits: Just a few of the perks include improved flexibility, focus and balance; building muscle strength, perfecting posture and protecting your spine; and increased blood flow.

uhammad Ali was one of the best-known faces of Parkinson’s disease (PD). His death earlier this year raised anew our awareness that PD can—and does—happen to the greatest of champions. Ali’s passing was also an urgent reminder to keep fighting for a cure. Parkinson’s Association of Northern California (PANC) has been supporting the fight since 1996. The organization is based in Folsom and works on behalf of those with PD, along with their families and care partners. One of its many functions is to oversee more than 30 support groups throughout the region that meet monthly and are led by dedicated volunteers.

We also provide subsidies for respite support of those who care for persons with PD.” Kretz became involved with PANC after being invited to sit in on a board meeting two years ago. “Many, if not most, of our volunteers are either a person with PD or a spouse or family member of someone with PD, but that wasn’t what brought me to PANC,” she says. “As a retired nurseattorney, I felt a need to contribute time and energy to an organization that enhances the quality of life for those dealing with a chronic disease.” One way PANC improves quality of life is with a new program called ParkinsonWISE. “Ron, with PD, was hoping to find a workout program that was in synch with his PD challenges,” Kretz recounts. “So

6 / Don’t be afraid While a fall may not result in a physical injury, it can be emotionally traumatic. “This fear may cause an elder to disengage from the space or the activity that caused the fall,” says ten Brinke, warning that resulting social isolation and community disengagement can “increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, cognitive change, infectious illness and mortality.”

FALL PREVENTION DAY Learn more about reducing fall risks at Fall Prevention Day on October 18 from 1:30-4 p.m. at the Placerville Senior Center (937 Spring Street).

id you know that one in three Americans over the age of 65 falls each year? The National Council on Aging also reports that an older adult dies every 19 minutes from a fall, and every 11 seconds an older adult is seen at an emergency department because of one. The biggest risks include biological problems, like balance and vision; behavioral issues, like inactivity and alcohol use; and environmental factors, like ill-fitting shoes. “The great news is that the majority of all these risks can be reduced,” says Therese ten Brinke, project coordinator for Strategic Initiatives at Eskaton. “Sustaining a fall in the past year is the most important predictor for future falls,” says Ashkan Javaheri, MD, CMD, division head of the Geriatric Division at Mercy Medical Group, explaining contributing factors include gait and balance impairment, arthritis, vision impairment, foot problems, and neurological diseases like stroke and

4 Crown Molding Myths, Debunked by Kerrie L. Kelly, ASID

ne of the most beautiful details you can add to your home’s existing architecture is crown molding. If your abode is already decorated with it—awesome! However, there are many ways you can update it to match your style more closely. And if your space isn’t already decked out in beautiful molding, we’ve come up with a few ways you can change that, including four myths that should be dispelled around the architectural detail. Partnering with local expert, Steve Menez, out of Folsom, we help you decide whether or not crown molding is right for you. (Hint: It’s right for everyone!)

Myth #1 / Ceiling height definitely matters In short: No, it doesn’t. Resident crown molding expert Steve Menez explains: “Typically ceilings as low as eight feet can be crowned. Crown molding can be stacked with other moldings to achieve a larger

profile on higher ceilings, too. Many homes built in the 1970s and earlier had lower ceilings and a much simpler architecture, with fewer angles than you see in more modern built homes from the 1980s to the present. Those older, smaller homes have a ton of character in them already, and crown molding simply brings out the beauty of the architecture all the more.”

Myth #2 / Only one molding style should be used in a home Definitely not. However, uniformity is often better. “I’ve found in the 650 homes I have installed in that most people want a traditional and simple profile, sometimes referred to as ‘colonial crown,’” explains Menez. We suggest doing a bit of research before opting for more than one molding type throughout your space.

Myth #3 / The home’s style matters when selecting crown molding

This one rings true. “Most homes lend themselves to the beauty and elegance that crown molding gives a home. However, there are a few homes where the architecture has too many transitions in the ceiling (especially true with some vaulted ceilings), so the crown would tend to lose the flow in those rooms, as opposed to a room where all walls have continuous crown molding on them.”

Myth #4 / White is the most popular color for crown molding True again. “Ninety-nine percent of what I see painted on all moldings, including crown, is a semi-gloss white. Swiss Coffee by Kelly Moore is being widely used as the most popular shade of white,” says Menez.

20+ must-try local libations

by Megan Wiskus photos by Dante Fontana

It’s not breaking news that our region is rife with award-winning wineries and breweries—with even more places slated to open soon. From well-established and nationally known locales, to the new kids on the block, no one’s going thirsty here. The hardest part is deciding just what offering to quench your thirst with. Luckily, we’ve compiled a list of the best local libations available— complete with a quick description of each, pairing suggestion and its ABV. We invite you to read through the list, tear it out or take notes, and head out on your very own sip trip through the region. In no particular order… The Monk’s Cellar Hop Shoot, 4.5% ABV

This is a beer we make in early spring to celebrate the first growth of the hop plant. This particular beer was aged in a barrel and had a secondary fermentation with Brettanomyces. It has a very dry, earthy hop nose and flavor, with notes of peach and pepper. Rustic, dry and quenching, it goes great with a farmhouse lunch of cheeses, salami and olives.

Knee Deep Brewing Company Stoutella, 6% ABV

Flavors of roasty, sweet cocoa and hazelnut make this beer taste like Nutella in liquid form! It’s full-bodied and has a lingering sweetness that pairs nicely with rich desserts or Italian food. Knee Deep Brewing Company, 13395 New Airport Road, Auburn, 530-7974677, kneedeepbrewing.com

GoatHouse Brewing Co. Ménage, 6.9% ABV THE MONK’S CELLAR

Secret Ravine 2015 Gold Fever Sauvignon Blanc, 14% ABV This California State Fair gold medal winner and “Best of Class in Region” winner is a delightful, refreshing wine that’s brilliant in color, providing aromas of grapefruit and tart apple that’s well balanced with flavor and acidity. Chill and serve with fish, cheese, fruit or holiday turkey and ham. Secret Ravine Vineyard & Winery, 4390 Gold Trail Way, Loomis, 916-652-6015, secretravine.com

This Belgian tripel is brewed with 40 pounds of fresh mandarins (satsumas, honey mandarins and clementines from GoatHouse’s onsite orchard) and toasted spice. It was recently named one of the “Top 25 Beers” in Sacramento and is always a hit at the agriculturally based brewery, which grows 80 percent of their own hops. GoatHouse Brewing Co., 600 Wise Road, Lincoln, 916-740-9100, goathousebrewing.com

Dragas Brewing Gizmo IPA, 7.2% ABV

Gizmo is boldly hopped with First Gold and Mosaic hops late in the boil, providing a juicy yet bitter profile. At 7.2-percent ABV and 77 IBU, it’s definitely something you could drink after midnight…but it may transform you. The unfiltered, fruity body provides the perfect vessel for this West Coast hop bomb. Try pairing it with a spicy Pad Thai dish; just don’t forget a bit of lime juice squeezed over the slightly sweet shrimp and chili rice noodles. Dragas Brewing, 5860 Pacific Street, Rocklin, 916-905-7710, dragasbrewing.com

Moonraker Brewing Company YOJO, 6.9% ABV

This unfined, unfiltered beer is a favorite among all and uses a proprietary English yeast strain. Apricot, peach and pineapple hop flavors come from the use of Mosaic, Galaxy, Simcoe and Citra hops. It pairs well with fish tacos. Moonraker Brewing Company, 12970 Earhart Avenue, Suite 100, Auburn, 530-745-6816, moonrakerbrewing.com 38 stylergbr.com - October 2016

Boeger 2014 Barbera, 15% ABV

This wine—a gold medal winner at the El Dorado County Fair—features aromas of fresh tobacco, browned butter and toasted sugar, sweet red pepper, ripe cranberry and pomegranate. The mouthwatering palate has vibrancy and zip! It also has great tannins for cutting through rich foods. Try it with a hearty stew or creamy tomato-based pastas. Boeger Winery, 1709 Carson Road, Placerville, 530-622-8094, boegerwinery.com

EDH Brewing Co. Big Red Pig Red Mosaic Ale, 6.5% ABV

This exquisitely balanced wine is feminine in nature with flavors of fresh raspberry and ripe cherry. From start to finish, this Sierra foothill beauty cries elegance in a glass. The tannins are soft and silky with tones of black pepper that linger playfully on the tip of your tongue throughout the finish. This wine is very foodfriendly and is a perfect pairing to tomato-based Italian dishes. Rancho Victoria Vineyard, 16920 Greilich Road, Plymouth, 209-6002557, ranchovictoriavineyard.com

Rancho Roble Vineyards 2012 Estate Barbera, 13.9% ABV

Estate grown in Placer County, this Barbera is well balanced, with a mellow start and lingering finish of dark red fruit notes such as cherry, plum and blackberry. Pair with tomato-

PaZa 2013 Petite Sirah Reserve, 14.3% ABV

Passionately known for its inky dark purple color, mild tannins and aromas of fresh herbs and white pepper overtones, this wine is not Syrah and is also not petite! It aged for three years in a combination of new and used barrels, and was a silver award winner in the 2015 Consumer Wine Awards and a bronze award winner in the 2014 Sunset International Wine Competition.

Everhart Cellars 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon, 14.5%

Everhart’s very low-yielding vines at their Pilot Ridge vineyard produce wines of deep color concentration, good acidity, tannins and rich flavors. This wine is no exception, with its dark ruby color and nice extraction. Aromas of black cherry, berry pie, and hints of green tea and tobacco are complemented by sweet, toasted oak aromas of graham cracker, coffee and spice. On the palate are flavors of red fruit, rich and full, with toasted oak adding complexity without taking away from the core of fruit. The awardwinning wine (it took a gold medal at the Orange County Fair Wine Competition) is balanced and has nice tannins that are firm yet not overpowering, making it a perfect pairing for most red meats or all by itself. Everhart Cellars & Hart 2 Hart Vineyards, 5821 CA State Highway 49, Pilot Hill, 530-885-9463, hart2hartvineyards.com

Helwig 2014 Barbera, 14.5% ABV

This Barbera explodes on the nose with notes of black cherry, cedar and subtle hints of lavender. The palate is rife with blueberry and gooseberry, rounding out with ample vanilla and cardamom spice. When pairing with food, consider traditional staples such as spaghetti and meatballs or lasagna. If it’s meats you desire, try braised lamb dishes or hanger steaks. This Barbera’s versatility makes it a welcome guest at any table! Helwig Winery, 11555 Shenandoah Road, Plymouth, 209-2455200, helwigwinery.com

a little patience and it’s happy to complement any meal. It’s also known to pair perfectly with an empty glass. PaZa Estate Winery, 3357 Ayers Holmes Road, Auburn, 916834-0565, pazawines.com

Auburn Alehouse Gold Country Pilsner, 5% ABV

This American-style pilsner has won three Great American Beer Fest medals—the nation’s most prestigious beer competition. Safe to say, it’s widely considered one of the best beers made in the region. It boasts a brilliant clarity, pale straw hue, with a sturdy white head. Up front, the beer has a biscuit, almost honey-like sweetness, but it finishes bone dry with a snappy, hop character. Although it pairs well with a variety of dishes, it works best with herb-roasted chicken, and is a great match to fatty fish dishes, like salmon, plus creamy pastas, an assortment of cheeses and cured meats. Auburn Alehouse, 289 Washington Street, Auburn, 530-885-2537, auburnalehouse.com

River Rock Ranch Lindemann 2014 Sauvignon Blanc, 13% ABV

The unusually sweet yet tart flavor of this wine wakes up your taste buds and is very refreshing to sip on a warm afternoon. The best food to serve with it is a spring salad with melons and fruit alongside a fresh croissant. River Rock Ranch Lindemann Winery, 6024 Prairie Way, Lincoln, 916-408-3855, riverrockranch.co

Loomis Basin Brewing Company Vindicator IPA, 6.5% IPA This flagship ale is a classic California IPA—extremely drinkable and not an over-the-top-hop-in-your-face IPA. Aromas of tangerine, grapefruit and a hint of pine fill the nose, and caramel and Munich malts balance out the beer by adding a full body and touch of sweetness. You can pair it with any great BBQ dish, but it’s particularly good with Asian-style foods and a good spicy taco. Loomis Basin Brewing Company, 3277 Swetzer Road, Loomis, 916-259-2739; LBB GastroPub and SmokeHouse, 3640 Taylor Road, Suite C, Loomis, 916-824-1527, loomisbasinbrewing.com

Braising Sauce • 1 oz. prosciutto, chopped • 2 med. onions, thinly sliced • 1 carrot, finely chopped • 2 tbsp. minced garlic • 1 cup red wine • 1 ½ cups tomatoes (fresh or canned), peeled, seeded and diced • 2 cups lamb, beef, or chicken stock • 2-3 small strips of lemon peel • 1 bay leaf • 1 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary (or ½ tsp. dried) • 1 tsp. chopped fresh thyme or oregano (or ½ tsp. dried) • Salt and freshly ground black pepper • Basil Gremolata (recipe follows) Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a large skillet or a Dutch oven, heat the oil over high heat. Add the shanks and brown them on all sides, 5-7 minutes. Remove the meat and set aside. To make the Braising Sauce: Pour off all but 2 tbsp. of fat from the pan. Turn the heat down to medium, add the prosciutto, onions and carrot, cover, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring often, until the vegetables are quite soft. Put in the garlic and cook for 1 minute more. Add the wine, tomatoes and stock and bring to a boil. Put in the lemon peel, bay leaf, rosemary, thyme or oregano, and the shanks. Cover the pot and put it in the center of the oven. Bake for 1.5-2 hours, or until the meat is quite tender, turning it from time to time during cooking. Remove the shanks and cover them loosely to keep warm. Degrease the sauce and discard the bay leaves and lemon peel. Reduce the sauce by half over high heat. Taste for salt and pepper. Serve the shanks on a bed of risotto or polenta. Pour over some of the sauce, sprinkle the gremolata generously over the top and serve.
