WALL OF FAME ...helping you is what I do

To truly understand a neighbourhood, it is important to immerse yourself in the community. The quintessential Canadian experience is early morning at the local hockey rink, supporting the youth – chatting with friends and neighbours.

Thank You For The Opportunity!

Buying or Selling a home is a very personal decision. It involves weeks, even months, working with your real estate representative, building a relationship based on trust, confidence and exceptional service.

Thank you for the Opportunity!

NA SANTOS SOLD OUR HOUSE. That’s the important part of the story, but what might interest Ana’s prospective clients is what went on before our happy ending. Ana came through our home, a home we have loved and lovingly decorated, a home we thought was perfect in every way. We expected Ana would arrange photography, post the listing online and within a week or so our home would have a SOLD sticker plastered diagonally over the Harvey Kalles sign on the front lawn. That is not what happened.

11 Berl Avenue • Lease $1,450

Ana suspected that we needed to freshen up the house, especially the kitchen — a partial overhaul, she said. Ana verified this by having an agent open house.

She met with us and delivered the news — what was needed was two weeks of being without a kitchen, and within that time, Ana’s painter would paint the entire main floor and her kitchen people would revamp the kitchen — we would pay the bill, of course, but the sale price would reflect the investment. We also needed to remove much of the art that hung on so many of the walls. This was an artist’s house and a place to show paintings between exhibitions but now it was a house for sale.

Ana is a brave soul — and she does not mince words; here is how I remember the conversation. “If you want others to see this house and to value this house as we know it should be valued, you are going to need to do the work. Bring this 14-year-old house up to the standards of a new house and do it fast.” Three weeks later, the house was so lovely we wondered why we hadn’t done this work ourselves, for ourselves, years ago. It turns out, Ana is not only a top notch real estate agent, she also has a great aesthetic sense - her second career could be as an interior designer, but she is too busy selling and buying homes for her clients.

30 Old Mill Road Suite 405 • $1,398,000

One week after listing, our house was sold at a very fair price. The new people have a young family, just as we did when we moved into that same house.

We are all happy with the deal that was struck. I attribute the process and the outcome to Ana Santos. I recommend Ana without hesitation if you are selling or purchasing a home.

dding pesto to the turkey adds a quick and easy punch of flavour.

You can use regular pesto or I use store bought no-cheese, no-nut pesto from my favourite local pasta shop. Try to get the “fresh” pesto from the refrigerated section rather than the pesto in the jar on the shelf, it is much better! This dinner comes together in well under 1-hour.

SERVES: 4

INGREDIENTS FOR THE TURKEY BALLS

• 1 pound ground turkey* • 2/3 cup bread crumbs • 1/2 cup store bought pesto or homemade • 1 tsp kosher salt • Plenty of freshly ground pepper • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil FOR THE SAUCE

• 2 large cloves garlic, minced

DIRECTIONS • In a large mixing bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, pesto, salt and pepper. Add the turkey and mix well. Prepare a parchment-lined tray. Roll the mixture into 1” balls. You should have about 25-30 balls.

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil. Brown the meatballs all over for about 8-10 minutes, transfer to a clean surface (I use a plate).

• Add the garlic to the same pan, cook for 30 seconds, add the tomatoes, crush the larger pieces, add the salt, pepper and sugar and let bubble over medium high heat for 5-8 minutes. Add the turkey balls back into the pan, cover, turn heat to low and cook for another 5-10 minutes.

• 1/2 tsp sugar

• In the meantime, bring a large pot of water to boil, add 1tbsp salt, and boil the noodles according to package direction, keeping them al-dente. Reserve 1-cup of pasta water and then drain the noodles, put the pasta back into the pasta pot and add the sauce to the pasta. Add the pasta water a small amount at a time if needed to finish cooking the pasta or to thin the sauce (you may not need it). DELICIOUSDISH

• 12 oz spaghetti noodles**

* Don’t use white meat turkey, use the regular ground turkey.

• 1 (28 ounce) can of San Marzano tomatoes, crushed with your hands • 1 tsp kosher salt • Plenty of freshly ground pepper

• 6 basil leaves, shredded, optional • Grated parmesan reggiano, optional • Red chili flakes, optional

** 12oz or 340gm is 3/4 of a bag of pasta. I don’t use the whole bag because, the ratio of meatballs to pasta is perfect and 12oz serves 4 perfectly!

HOW TO GET YOUR KIDS

Out of the House

GARDEN

24

L

ook up the positive effects of gardening and you'll find a wealth of studies from educational and government institutions that support its impact on your physical and mental well-being. But it's not just adults who benefit from time in the garden. It's a great way to spend time with your kids while teaching them about biology, food and geology.

Here, garden guru FRANK FERRAGINE, aka Frankie Flowers, shares his tested and true techniques to get your kids in the garden.

G IVE TH EM A P LOT O F E D I B LE S “Letting the kids pick out and maintain edible plants or grow them from seed in their own plot will help foster ownership in the garden.”

Your backyard garden can be a fantastic source of delicious edibles like tomatoes, carrots and berries. “If you're looking for something that will really get the kids and their tastebuds excited, the geniuses at President's Choice have put together a strawberry trio that contains framberries, pineberries and seaburst strawberries.”

G IVE TH EM TH E I R OWN TOO L S “Their own set of tools will make them feel more grown up and more responsible.”

“A watering can, trowel, gloves and kneeling pad may be all it takes to get your son or daughter in the garden with you,” claims Frankie. >>>

outdoor living

C R E ATE A M I N IATU R E GAR D E N “Hanging baskets are a great choice for smaller spaces, and the bright colours that are trendy this year will captivate your kids.”

Condo or apartment living shouldn't keep your kids from learning about gardening. “PC Garden Centres have tons of fun planters and colourful pots for the balcony. Planting some microgreens or seasonal flowers in them is a wonderful way to teach your young ones about planting and watering,” says Frankie.

G E T CO N N EC TE D “Kids love taking photos, so why not give your little ones an assignment to take some gardening photos to share with you or their friends?”

For younger generations who engage each other on social media, showing them gardening has its place online can go a long way.

“It's likely to spark more interest in the work you're doing out there and you'll make some memories to last a lifetime.” THN www.newscanada.com
