September 18 – October 2, 2014

ON THE COVER–The Lemon Bucket Orkestra This balkan-klezmer-gypsy-party-punk-super-band, a fifteen-piece wave of sound, started as a quartet of buskers in Toronto in 2010.

LBO performances are more than just musical concerts: they are eruptions of wild joy, a celebration of tradition and culture expressed with explosive punk spirit … adventurously multicultural. In 2013, their debut full-length album “Lume Lume” was nominated for 4 Canadian Folk Music Awards. And Deep Roots audiences are in for an experience of their very own this year when LBO hit the stage.

Catch them during the Deep Roots Weekend (September 26 – 28) on: Saturday, Noon at Clockpark Tent & in the Parade Saturday, 2:30pm at Market Saturday, 10:30pm at Old O Sponsored by: Aaron Allen Web & Media Design For more visit: lemonbucket.com & deeprootsmusic.ca

Editor’s Note: This is the best time of year in the Annapolis Valley. The weather is still cooperating and the harvests are bringing together communities. There’s no better time to get caught up in the music and fun of Deep Roots! If you haven’t ever attended because you haven’t recognized too many of the performers, I advise you to simply trust those making the music decisions. Our Valley is about to be visited by an incredible array of talent, you won’t be disappointed.

Also, welcome to our first 24-page Grapevine! Your interest and support has made this possible, thank you so much. We love this growth, but there’s more that can be done with this lil’ arts & culture paper.

Random Acts of Kindness is Brought to you by Daniels’ Flower Shop Ltd. 40 Water St, Windsor | 798-5337 | www.danielsflowershop.net

In an absentminded stupor, I accidentally left my wallet on the top of my car while pumping gas. In it was a substantial amount of cash, as well as every ID I owned, and my residency card. Several hours later in a panic, I retraced my steps, but no wallet. I finally went to the police station. Lo and behold, some random honest stranger had brought

my wallet back, with its contents full and untouched! I wanted to offer a reward, but they left no information. Thank you random stranger, you reminded me that there are plenty of good and honest people out there!

THE CROSSWORD

Fall into Reading

F

aithful readers of my column, as well as friends and family, all know that this is my favourite time of the year. I love the autumn - its colors, its general feel, and its journey into the winter months where we get to have toasty fires, hot beverages, and snowy afternoons filled with long movies and great books. I love literature and promoting stellar reading material. For as long as I am on this planet, reading will not become a forgotten pastime. This article might seem seasonally early but you have to admit, that on these cold mornings, it’s beginning to feel pretty Fallish out there!

Using the shelves at the fabulous Box of Delights in Wolfville, the Book Review section of the Globe and Mail, The Atlantic Books magazine and my own know-how, here is a list of fantastic reads for the upcoming season. And remember to pass books and recommendations along to those nearest to you, as there’s nothing like sharing a book and then chatting about it over coffee and carrot cake at the Il Dolce Far Niente Espresso Bar in Wolfville (nice plug eh?)

Let’s start with local fare. Check out ‘Grey Eyes’ by Frank Busch, ‘Sweetland’ by Michael Crummey, and a wonderful collection of poetry by Acadia Professor Sylvia Hamilton called ‘And I Alone Escaped to Tell You’. A few more local selections that have peaked my interest for the autumn are Jan L. Coates’ ‘Rocket Man’, B.R. Myers’ ‘Butterflies Don’t Lie’, ‘Crimes Against My Brother’ by David Adams Richards and ‘How Loveta got her Baby’ by Nicholas Ruddock. For the history buff, check out ‘The Lynching of Peter Wheeler’ by Debra Komar - the true story of the murder of Annie Kempton in Bear River, Nova Scotia. It’s a very gripping novel.

Recognizable names have new novels out for your pleasure including Margaret Atwood’s new collection of short stories called ‘Stone Mattress’. Ian McEwan, one of my favorite authors of all time (he wrote ‘Atonement’, ‘Saturday’, ‘Amsterdam’ and ‘Sweet Tooth’), has a new novel out called ‘The Children Act’, which is easily at the top of my reading list. Stephen King has released a great novel recently called ‘Mister Mercedes’, and Ken Fol-

lett has put out the third novel in his Century Trilogy called ‘Edge of Eternity’. And you should all definitely add Mette Jakobson’s ‘The Vanishing Act’, Alissa York’s ‘Fauna’, Ania Szado’s ‘Studio Saint-Ex’ and Neil Gaiman’s ‘The Ocean at the End of the Lane’ to your reading lists for this fall!

If you are looking to introduce young adults to great novels, I recommend S. E. Hinton’s classic ‘The Outsiders’, Jonathan Swift’s ‘Gulliver’s Travels’, Daniel Dafoe’s ‘Robinson Crusoe’, Jules Verne’s ‘Around the World in Eighty Days’, Betty Smith’s ‘A Tree Grows in Brooklyn’, Harper Lee’s ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’, John Steinbeck’s ‘Of Mice and Men’, or try Neil Gaiman’s ‘The Graveyard Book’!

Other selections for the chilly months ahead are ‘Bleeding Egde’ by Thomas Pynchon, ‘The Lewis Man’ by Peter May, ‘Gone Girl’ by Gillian Flynn, ‘The Long Way Home’ by Louise Penny, ‘The Bone Clocks’ by David Mitchell, ‘Strangers on a Train’ by Patricia Highsmith, or ‘The Paying Guests’ by Sarah Waters.

Recommendations that have come my way from friends include ‘The End of Your Life Book Club’ by Will Schwalbe, ‘The Far Side of the Sky’ by Daniel Kalla, ‘Spanish Fly’ by Will Ferguson, ‘The Marlowe Papers’ by Ros Barber, ‘Transatlantic’ by Colum McCain, and the newly discovered and released ‘The Fall of Arthur’ by J.R.R Tolkien (Thanks Ian!).

Besides novels, I am guilty of reading Plays!

It’s a lot of fun to grab some friends and read a classic stage play out loud and play out (no pun intended) all the classic characters of the stage. Pick up a Tennessee Williams classic like ‘Streetcar Named Desire’ or ‘Cat on a Hot Tin Roof’, a Neil Simon comedy like ‘The Sunshine Boys’ or ‘The Goodbye Girl’, Edward Albee’s ‘Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf’, Oscar Wilde’s ‘Importance of Being Earnest’ or a Shakespeare play like ‘The Tempest’, ‘The Taming of the Shrew’ or ‘Romeo and Juliet’.

One more grouping of considerations include ‘The Garden of Letters’ by Alyson Richman, ‘Big Little Lies’ by Liane Moriarty, ‘Upside Down’ by Fern Michaels, ‘The Goldfinch’

by Donna Tartt, ‘Sycamore Row’ by John Grisham, ‘We Are Not Ourselves’ by Matthew Thomas, and ‘Orphan Train’ by Christina Baker Kline.

We are lucky to have THREE stores in Wolfville that sell new and used books and I spread the wealth to all of them. Enjoy these selections and others you come across. Have an incredible experience of opening your mind, expanding your imagination and welcoming new characters into your life. Enjoy!

AND A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY NEPHEW TANNER (SEE PHOTO!)

Some Novel Ideas for the Months Ahead!

brought to you by:

6

September 18 – October 2, 2014

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The old

Latin motto Gradu diverso, via una can be translated as either “Continuing on the same road, but with a different stride” or “Going the same way, but changing your pace.” I think this is excellent advice for you, Taurus. By my reckoning, you are on the correct path. You are headed in the right direction. But you need to shift your approach a bit — not a lot, just a little.

You’ve got to make some minor adjustments in the way you flow.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): For years,

Donna and George Lewis used a 33-pound, oval-shaped rock as a doorstop in their Tennessee home. Later they moved it to their garden. Then one day George analyzed it with his metal detector and realized it had unusual properties. He took it to scientists who informed him it was a rare and valuable four-and-a-half-billion-year-old meteorite.

With this as our subtext, Gemini, I’m asking you if there might be some aspect of your life that is more precious than you imagine.

Now is a favorable time to find out, and make appropriate adjustments in your behavior.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): I’ve got a radical

proposal, Cancerian. It might offend you.

You may think I’m so far off the mark that you will stop reading my horoscopes. But I’m willing to take that risk, and I’m prepared to admit that I could be wrong. But I don’t think I am wrong. So here’s what I have to say: There is a sense in which the source of your wound is potentially also the source of the “medicine” that will heal the wound.

What hurt you could fix you. But you must be careful not to interpret this masochistically.

You can’t afford to be too literal. I’m not saying that the source of your pain is trustworthy or has good intentions. Be cagey as you learn how to get the cure you need.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The prestigious New England Journal of Medicine published a study with a conclusion we might expect to see in a tabloid newspaper or satirical website. It reported that there is a

correlation between chocolate consumption and Nobel Prizes. Those countries whose citizens eat more chocolate have also produced an inordinate number of Nobel laureates. So does this mean that chocolate makes you smarter, as some other studies have also suggested? Maybe, the report concluded. Since it is especially important for you to be at the height of your mental powers in the coming weeks, Leo, why not experiment with this possibility?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I rarely waste

my time trying to convert the “skeptics” who attack astrology with a hostile zeal that belies their supposed scientific objectivity.

They’re often as dogmatic and closedminded as any fundamentalist religious nut.

When I’m in a tricky mood, though, I might tell them about the “Crawford Perspectives,” a highly-rated Wall Street investment publication that relies extensively on astrological analysis. Or I might quote the wealthy financier J. P. Morgan, who testified that “Millionaires don’t use astrology; billionaires do.” That brings us to my main point, Virgo: The astrological omens suggest that the coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to put in motion plans to get richer quicker. Take advantage!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): When Libraborn Mohandas Gandhi was 19, he moved to London from his native India to study law. Soon he got caught up in the effort to become an English gentleman. He took elocution lessons and learned to dance.

He bought fine clothes and a gold watchchain. Each morning he stood before a giant mirror and fussed with his hair and necktie until they were perfect. In retrospect, this phase of his life seems irrelevant. Years later he was a barefoot rebel leader using nonviolent civil disobedience to help end the British rule of India, often wearing a loincloth and shawl made of fabric he wove himself. With this as your inspiration, Libra, identify aspects of your current life that contribute little to the soul you must eventually become.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): This might

be controversial, but I suspect that for now your emphasis shouldn’t be on sex, drugs, and rock and roll. Instead, your specialties should be hard-earned intimacy, altered states that are solely the result of deep introspection, and music that arouses reverence and other sacred emotions. You are entering a phase when crafty power is less important than vigorous receptivity; when success is not nearly as interesting as meaningfulness; when what you already understand is less valuable than what you can imagine and create.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You are entering a phase when you will reap rich

A bsolute NonScents ECONOMY

SOCIETY

ENVIRONMENT

rewards by nurturing the health of your favorite posse, ensemble, or organization.

How is the group’s collective mental health?

Are there any festering rifts? Any apathetic attitudes or weakening resolves? I choose you to be the leader who builds solidarity and cultivates consensus. I ask you to think creatively about how to make sure everyone’s individual goals synergize with the greater good. Are you familiar with the Arabic word taarradhin? It means a compromise that allows everyone to win — a reconciliation in which no one loses face.

TRIVIA

360 Main St.,Wolfville | 697.3009

By Jake Rideout | Inquisitive Toy Company facebook.com/inquisitivetoys

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The good

news is that America has more trees than it did a hundred years ago. Aggressive efforts to replace the decimated old-growth forests have paid off. The bad news is that the new forests have a far less diverse selection of tree species than the originals. The fresh batches are often crowded into smaller spaces, so wildfires are more massive and devastating. And because so many of the forests are young, they host a reduced diversity of plant and animal life. All in all, the increased quantity is wonderful; the lower quality not so wonderful. Is there a lesson here for you? I think so. In your upcoming decisions, favor established quality over novel quantity.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If Pope Francis isn’t traveling, he comes out to meet the public in St. Peter’s Square every Wednesday. During one such event last January, he took a few moments to bestow tender attention on a talking parrot that belonged to a male stripper. I foresee a comparable anomaly happening for you in the coming days. A part of you that is wild or outré will be blessed by contact with what’s holy or sublime. Or maybe a beastly aspect of your nature that doesn’t normally get much respect will receive a divine favor.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “My definition

of a devil is a god who has not been recognized,” said mythologist Joseph Campbell. “It is a power in you to which you have not given expression, and you push it back. And then, like all repressed energy, it builds up and becomes dangerous to the position you’re trying to hold.” Do you agree, Pisces? I hope so, because you will soon be entering the Get Better Acquainted with Your Devil Phase of your astrological cycle, to be immediately followed by the Transform Your Devil into a God Phase.

To get the party started, ask yourself this question: What is the power in you to which you have not given expression?

answers:

horoscopes I write for you aren’t primarily meant to predict the future. They are more about uncovering hidden potentials and desirable possibilities that are stirring below the surface right now. When I’m doing my job well, I help you identify those seeds so you can cultivate them proactively. Bearing that in mind, I’ll pose three pertinent questions. 1. What experiments might stir up more intimacy in the relationships you want to deepen? 2. What could you change about yourself to attract more of the love and care you want? 3. Is there anything you can do to diminish the sting of bad memories about past romantic encounters, thereby freeing you to love with more abandon?

Brief Recap: Maritime Metal & Hard Rock Festival 2 We had a killer time at the festival and I'm very grateful for all the support we received. It was a loud and wonderful weekend. Only ONE issue really ticked me off. So, of course, Jim Lahey got shittered and could not drive home. I was kind enough to offer him a place to stay in my cabin, which is small, but at least it’s a place for him to stay. What happens???

I wake up to discover ALL of my underwear was stolen… including the pair I was wearing.

Never again Jim Lahey... never again.

CURRENTLY BLOOMING AT THE HARRIET IRVING BOTANICAL GARDENS: Perhaps we can call it What's Growing this time instead of What's blooming because we have a pineapple growing!

Locally grown pineapples come to Wolfville! We've grown 4 pineapples in the greenhouse at the KC Irving Environmental Science Centre this year. All of the plants were started by community members from the tops of fruit they had eaten. Our first pineapple to fruit was from Rick MacNab. One day Rick ate a pineapple, cut the top off and convinced it to grow into a healthy pineapple plant, it outgrew his house so he donated the plant to us. Several years later it bloomed and much to our excitement fruited! The pineapples donated to us by Fred Chipman are now fruiting in our greenhouse. If you've never seen a live pineapple growing, stop by our greenhouse to see it before the last one gets eaten! The greenhouse and gardens at the KC Irving Environmental Science Centre and Harriet Irving Botanical Gardens are free and open to the public 7 days a week dawn to dusk.

Keir Pothier-West of Wolfville, NS

Keir works in production at Just Us Coffee and has aspirations to become a writer and/or a musician. He got his first, and so far only, tattoo, seven years ago when Colin’s shop was still in Wolfville. Keir found a design he liked on the internet – a tribal art piece symbolizing a dragon – but wanted something more unique. So he asked his oldest brother Nathan, who is an artist, to take a look at it. They worked together to come up with a different and original image that incorporates Nate’s particular style of art. For Keir, the design represents loyalty (through family & friends), strength, and bravery.

September 18 – October 2, 2014 Cheri Killam is happily married to Michael Caplan and the proud mother of Max, Solomon, and Clara. After several university experiences, she made the massive decision to go to law school at age 37. She is an Associate at Nathanson Seaman Watts. When not blogging or lawyering, Cheri reads like a fiend and runs.

She also loves all things local! Obviously.

A

lthough I think I should be famous by now…or at least, RootLocal should be famous, the most common response to “I write RootLocal” is “Root what?” or “um, that’s nice.” Not so, with this week’s vendor. I approached Ironworks Distillery and was greeted by the lovely Amber with warm enthusiasm.

Ironworks makes an impressive array of alcoholic beverages. In fact, I would actually call it a dizzying array as I am not generally one to partake in spirits. Nonetheless, I was game to try and Amber is not only friendly and engaging, but she is also incredibly conversant in all things Ironworks.

One of the most interesting products Ironworks makes is their Pear Eau de Vie. I first “heard tell” of this inspired creation a couple of years ago. My parents live in Woodville and they are neighbours to the farmers (Boates) who grow the pears for this creative fruit brandy. They were the talk of the town as folk had seen bottles hanging from the trees! Ironworks comes and installs bottles on the wee pear fruitlet and lets it hang there until the pear is fully ripened, at which time the bottles are removed and the spirits begin to flow. Amber tells me that last year some 300 bottles were placed and there were 100 bottles of Pear Eau de Vie at the end of the entire process. She told me they are harvested before hurricane season. I did not even know we had a hurricane season, but then neither did Arthur.

OUTDOOR MARKET

The amazing part of the Pear Eau de Vie, though, is not the story or the presentation: it is the taste. I had one small mouthful of it two weeks ago and I can still recall the flavour precisely, I kid you not. It is fiery and smooth, clear and full, specific to the back of the throat and juicy to the entire mouth. It’s like the pear has transcended its pear-ness and become the very essence of pear at the same time. I may need to buy

a bottle of this nectar and have a mouthful every two weeks, just to remind myself of the joy of pear.

And now I’ve devoted two paragraphs (pearagraphs?) to rhapsodizing about a swig of one offering, and I’ve not yet told you what I took home to sample!

Lest you are afraid of spirits, like me, Ironworks provides cunning little bottles available in trios. At first I was afraid I would have to choose 3 options from the aforementioned dizzying array, but Amber informed me that there were 3 groupings: a rum package, a brandy package, and an Apéritifs package. Given that I’m a very junior consumer of spirits, Amber recommended the Apéritifs.

This lovely trio contained one blueberry, one raspberry, and one cranberry liqueur. I cannot even tell you which I liked the best.

All I know is I am not a fan of fruit wines, and I am not crazy about fruit-infused beers.

These are not either of those. I do not like sweet alcohol. These are not sweet. There is just enough sweet in the cranberry to take the tartness down to a drinkable level. They are all complex and wonderful and absolutely delightful to imbibe. They are very much meant to be savoured…and they’re spectacular drizzled over vanilla ice-cream.

So the moral of the story is: do not be scared like me. Go see Amber at the Wolfville Farmers’ Market and she will give you a sample that will blow your mind. Then take some home and enjoy it all over again. My brother also tells me the distillery offers a spectacular tour. Their website is glossy and informative: http://www.ironworksdistillery.com/. And I ran out of space to tell you about how crazy they are about sourcing every single thing as locally as possible.

The WHO’S WHO: ROBERT LEE:

The General Consultant invaluable experience. After 45 some years of combined experience in the building industry, Robert and Steve met and were discussing their stories. They consistently discovered that a large number of homeowners wanted a different approach to building their own homes. This is when they had a light-bulb moment - knowing that trust, transparency and value were of high importance, they realized they could create a system that would empower consumers to build their own homes with confidence and ease, all the while having a positive impact on the industry as a whole.

Hence, 2Consult was created and the adventure began.

Well, writing this Who’s Who is going to make a colonoscopy seem like a light-hearted treasure hunt. I am kidding of course! Part of that first sentence was the opening of a play I did a few years back called The Long Weekend by Norm Foster, a delightful comedy about two couples who swap truth, lies and each other over the course of two weekends.

Robert Lee took on the lead role (his first) of Max Trueman and blew it out of the water (after A LOT of rehearsing) and he was such a delight to partner up with during that play that I wanted to introduce you all to him and his new business venture. Enter The General - Robert Lee! Robert Lee is originally from England, which would explain the accent (only on certain words though) and after he completed carpentry apprenticeship chose to move to Canada in 1995. A funny story Robert told me was that he got off the plane and the first place he went to was a Pub and it was there, that same day, that he met his future wife Lisa. Talk about getting things done! Robert and Lisa have two beautiful girls, Olivia and Siranda.

Robert has always had a knack for building, creating and constructing things. And it was only natural that this would be a huge part of his life that fueled his career and some of his extracurricular activities. Robert, with his business partner Steve Lockhart, owns and operates 2CONSULT, a business designed to help new homebuilders and renovators have the very best experience with their projects from the starting plans to the finished product.

Over the years Robert and Steve worked individually with some of the best builders in the industry and both were fortunate to be part of great teams, resulting in multiple awards and Who's Who is Brought to you by T.A.N. COFFEE www.tancoffee.ca

Robert is quite passionate about this company and its high standard of quality and customer care. Having worked with Robert in theatre and seeing his drive for perfection, I can only imagine how meticulous he is with his 2Consult clients.

2consult is a company that acts as your own personal consultant and helps you navigate through the process of building a home, resulting in savings of thousands of dollars and giving you pride in your accomplishment.

2Consult caters to any level of experience you may have in home building, from the complete beginner to the very experienced, they provide a service that adds value through efficiency, durability, quality, price and timesaving.

Where Nature, Research & Technology come together Open to students, visitors, community, and faculty 8am - 10pm every day

Robert says, “The valley is full of community spirit and there is a vibrant group of energy-conscious, innovative and creative people.

It's great to be able to help people who are seeking better options in lifestyle and home building.” You can visit www.2consult.ca for more information. Find the company on Facebook and email Robert with questions at robert@2consult.ca.

Now, on to NON-WORK stuff. When Robert is not hanging out with those scuba diving, Pina Colada-drinking Germans in Martinique, he is on the board of directors for Quick as a Wink Theatre, in Windsor, and helps with the set building. He enjoys kayaking, swimming, playing the guitar and hanging out with the family. Besides “The Long Weekend”, Robert had a small part in Quick as a Wink’s “Glory Days” and hopes to get back on stage in the future (those leading man looks and that quick wit should be experienced by all!) Well, no matter what he’s constructing, be it a home or an in-depth theatrical performance, Robert can be counted on for quality and excellence. Trust me, it would assuage you greatly to use his services! They don’t call him The General for nothing!

Mortiscycle,

The Edible Sideshow What is your Business? We started a donut company in Victoria, BC and when we moved to Wolfville we brought it with us. We make hand-formed donuts using all natural, and as local as possible, ingredients. We then expanded to Wolfville’s first food truck and specialize in Mexican street food.

What inspired you to start your business? Donuts!

When I was little, my mom used to take my brother and I to Dotties Donuts while she was doing the laundry. We could each pick two donuts; my brother ALWAYS got the biggest ones, and I always got the party sprinkles. My nickname was Binky then and so when we decided to make donuts, we made a Binky! Mexican food is in Kevin’s family heritage. He is half Mexican from Los Angeles, and is also a chef. He brings his background and love of Mexican food to the truck.

What do you love best about coming to Market? We love meeting new friends and supporting local food producers. We get our fish every week from Eric and Sandra and it is great! We enjoy shopping for ingredients and the community of the vendors. Coming from Victoria and only being here a year, it has been a wonderful way to meet people and share our experiences. We also love the diversity of the vendors and what they are passionate about sharing.

Butternut Squash Soup Dave Smart, Front & Central | www.frontandcentral.com

W

orking in the herb garden this past weekend, I came across my planting of sage. Waiting patiently all summer. Now with the cooler nights upon us, a hearty warming bowl of butternut squash soup is in order….garnished with, as you may have guessed, fresh sage.

Bigger and badder every year! Want to Volunteer? smokinbluesfest@gmail.com

Ingredients • • • • • • • • • • • •

1 large butternut squash (3 ½ lbs) 2 cups onion – diced medium 2 cups diced carrots – diced medium 1 cup celery - sliced 5 sprigs fresh thyme 1 bay leaves 1 can coconut milk Salt White pepper 2 tbsp Lemon juice ½ cup maple syrup ¼ cup fresh chopped sage

THURSDAYS: Edible Art Cafe (New Minas): Brett Pierce (18th, 25th, 2nd) 12pm-3pm Angles Pub (Windsor): Adam Cameron (18th, 25th), Guy Paul (2nd) 7pm

Method

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Clean the squash and remove the stem.

Half the squash lengthwise and remove the stringy fibers and seeds.

Transfer fibers and seeds to a pot with half of the chopped celery, carrots, onion, thyme sprigs, and bay leaf. Cover with water and simmer for 30 minutes. Strain, reserving the squash stock for soup.

Lightly oil squash halves and place face down on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 45 minutes or until very soft. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. When cool enough to handle scrape out cooked flesh and transfer to a bowl.

In a large stock pot, heat vegetable oil over

medium high heat. Sweat remaining onions, celery, carrots until slightly softened, about 7 minutes. Add cooked squash and cook for another 2 minutes. Cover with squash stock (and additional vegetable stock if necessary).

Simmer soup until carrots are soft.

Transfer to a blender and puree in batches until very smooth. Adjust consistency of soup with additional vegetable stock (if required).

Return soup to a clean pot and heat over medium heat. Add coconut milk, seasoning (salt & pepper), lemon juice, and maple syrup.

Garnish with fresh chopped sage.

HUMANS OF THE

ANNAPOLIS VALLEY Collected by Linnea Swinimer

OPINIONS Dear Students, September 7, 2014

I like Wolfville because I get to ride the bus with my mom whenever I want!

As I write this it is 1am on Sunday morning and for the fourth night in a row I am awake - my heart beating too fast, my stomach in knots. I cannot sleep because on my street there have been 200+ people walking by this evening. Many of you are quiet and respectful. Many others feel the urge to scream as they walk by. This wakes us up....me, my husband, and sometimes our two children. To say that it is frustrating is an understatement. It has been like a jungle the last four nights and we feel like we are going out of our minds.

Tonight I reached a low level and ran out into the street to confront a screaming young woman who woke me up. It was about the fifth time I was woken up in an hour and I was losing my patience. I ran behind the group and asked them to be quiet. I actually said “could you please shut up”. This person replied “what the ‘f***’ do you expect, you live in a university town!”

Judy and Alan, 66 and 67 respectively

essarily reflect the views and opinions of the Grapevine staff, our advertisers, or our other contributors.

I would like to introduce you to your neighbours. It’s an interesting, diverse mix of people from all walks of life who choose to make Wolfville home. We love the community where we live, the music, farm-fresh produce, valley summers, scenery, opportunities, and yes, we love you, Acadia students. Welcome back to another year of learning and growing.

Cole, age 6

The opinions found within these pages do not nec-

Yes, it is a university town. One that needs to find some harmony between students and permanent residents....this harmony seems to be slipping away over the years. Does that student mean that it would be better if we (the non-student population) didn't exist?

Does she want students to be in a town all by themselves with no grocery store, bank, bars, restaurants? No professors either? No neighbours to pull you out of a snowbank if your car gets stuck? I know this is not true, and I know there are many of you who are respectful, who work and volunteer in our town, and who participate positively in our community.

Students, please remember we are also here.

Please be quiet when you are walking our streets at night and be reasonable when you have social gatherings. Some of us live in the outskirts of town and some of us live in the downtown core. We are young, old and in-between. As a matter of fact, we are YOU in 10, 20, or even 50 years. When you have a job, maybe some kids, and a home, or when you are the age of your grandparents, will you want to be woken up in the middle of the night repeatedly by drunk people? Shouldn't you have the right to live in a town or other location of your choice - a university town even? Shouldn't you have the right to raise your kids near their own elementary school without them stepping on broken glass?

We just sold our house in the city and so now we are simply being retired and starting a new adventure.

Nova Scotia has so many wonderful places to visit!

The Annapolis Valley is a gem in the province.

Grapevine Follow Up: Did the real estate agent not disclose all the info about your neighbours?

Response: We knew the neighbourhood was mixed. As I said, I went to Acadia, so it wasn't a blind decision; we just hoped it could work. Some years have been better than others. When we moved in I was pregnant with our 13 year old....
