“

Most doctors do not educate their patients about taking care of their bodies mechanically. As with all mechanical things that are neglected, there is a point of no return with our human bodies. Physical disabilities and many organ malfunctions (dis-ease) are a direct result of past trauma to the body’s biomechanical frame, often culminating in spinal stenosis. Like a car, once the mechanical parts are worn out completely, the result is failure to function. It is imperative to be proactive about your body’s biomechanical structure to maintain or regain good health. Visiting a proficient, specificallytrained Biomechanical Chiropractor when you’re feeling pain is a positive regimen to correct failure to function.

Should I Repair or Replace My A/C Unit? An air conditioning unit is generally the 3rd largest purchase a homeowner will make, so I wanted to share some expert advice on determining when you are spending good or bad money when it comes to your air conditioning unit. Many of the older units were built to last. You could just keep replacing major components and keep your AC running, so the decision to not bite the bigger expense was always justified. After all, a $3,000 repair still sounds better than a $6 to $8,000 new unit. But the best decision that pays off in the long run comes from evaluating several factors.

The Main Factors

I always tell people than when you start to spend more on repairs than you do on maintenance, it is a good time to at least start gathering A/C replacement quotes. Continual problems and repairs are the first sign your unit is creeping towards “end of days”. So at least having time to prepare and not make a hasty and expensive decisions will save you money and stress. Each repair might just be money wasted to buy you more time.

Age is a Key Factor

Next, look at unit age. I talk to people all the time who still have AC units from the 90s and 2000s. Those 20-30 year old units initially were built with a 6-8 SEER, but with age is maybe operating now at a 2-3 SEER. If you were to replace it with a new 14 SEER unit you just gained 7x the energy efficiency. Your AC unit accounts for about 50% of your energy consumption, so that hefty of a SEER increase could easily save around a$1,000 a year on utility bills. Now that $3,000 repair bill doesn’t seem like such a good return on investment anymore, right? Instead you could replace your unit and have the utility savings now and they also pay you more over the next decade. Not to mention you won’t have the headaches and hot house stress with no working AC for a period of time. About the author: Erik Bryan is the owner of Precision Air & Heating, the #1 ranked AC company in the state. Erik has been an HVAC contractor for more than 25 years serving the Valley. “Make the Precision Decision” and get a NO COST estimate on AC replacement.

IN-HOME EYE CARE IS COMING TO PARADISE VALLEY Dr. Eric Buensuceso had a vision: to bring eye care to those who could not readily access it. Working with nursing homes and prisons, he decided to take it a step further and deliver mobile eye care to people who couldn't make the time to receive it. Think those with odd shifts, busy schedules or those that are housebound. As a licensed, practicing optometrist for the last 24 years and a mobile eye care practitioner for 10 years, Dr. Buensucesco decided to follow his passion and move from the East Coast to Arizona. After doing much research, he decided the Valley was a great place to start this journey, bringing his "office" to you, offering the same services as a brick-and-mortar location. "We offer after-hours eye care for eye exams, eyeglass prescriptions, diabetic eye exams and much, much more," Dr. Buensucesco says.

Apple Annie’s has long been the ideal road trip for Phoenicians to participate in all things fall including a festival, delicious seasonal foods, fruit picking and choosing the perfect pumpkins. “Apple Annie’s can be found at our three distinct locations in Willcox. For pumpkin picking, you can visit our Williams Road location. Our Harvey Road spot is for apple and Asian pear picking, and we have our retail store off the freeway for jarred goods, pies, apple bread and much more. That location is open year-round to share our goodies with you,” says owner Mandy Kirkendall.

CHEF PAUL VENEZUE L A LINCOLN AT CAMELBACK INN

Creative freedom and a flair for simplicity in his dishes are what make chef Paul Venezuela unique in his craft. “My motto is, if it looks good and tastes good, it should be good, right? That is the standard I teach my staff and that I stand by myself. It’s that easy,” he says. With a history in banquets and the cruise industry, Paul feels he has found his niche with the Camelback Inn and Marriott in general. “I feel it is an honor to live up to brand and hotel. We have a great culture and company. That helps with food creation and preparation because we are all on the same team, and that’s when good things happen.” Paul has brought a menu to Lincoln at Camelback Inn that makes guests feel comfortable, not intimidated. With delicious ingredients that are universally recognized and appreciated, he feels that keeping customers in mind is the key to success. “People should know their food and know what they’re ordering. We offer an array of options all made with the freshest ingredients, and we’re good at how we use our purveyors. We know where our seafood and meat comes from, and you’ll taste the quality,” he says. Paul’s favorite dish at Lincoln is the rib-eye, served

with king crab legs, bearnaise and butter. He suggests a lobster baked potato as an accompaniment, which is a loaded baked potato served with 1 1/2 pounds of lobster meat atop. Brussels sprouts are also coming into season, and Lincoln offers a version that blends cherry vinegar and pine nuts with this popular vegetable side. “Anyone who enjoys meat will love this offering. It is a meal in and of itself,” he says.

itself when making the choice to head to the Wrigley Mansion for dinner and ambiance. “What’s really wonderful about the Wrigley Mansion is the restoration we are completing of this beautiful and historic building. We offer one of the best views in the city, with the largest wine list and a variety of dining options," chef Christopher Gross says. Christopher was at the Biltmore for 21 years before making his move to the Wrigley Mansion. It was a perfect fit, as renovations have led to impressive kitchen spaces that he notes are "a chef’s dream come true." Between Christopher’s, which will be a tasting menu dining option, and Geordie’s, Christopher believes he can appeal to all tastes and make the evening an experience, not just a meal. “Our new kitchen at Geordie’s will house a special table that will be available to reserve. You will be able to enjoy your meal while gazing out the picture window. After your meal, you can enjoy a drink from our wine cellar and find retreat on our terrace with a cigar or dessert,” he says. Christopher is most excited for a dish that pays homage to renowned chef Michel Richard, who recently passed away. The dish mirrors a Kit Kat but is a foie gras dish which is fun and playful, yet savory, not sweet. He often adds root vegChef Christopher Gross, Wrigley Mansion Homage to chef Michel Richard's Le Kit Cat Bar at Wrigley Mansion

etables to give the plated dish a polished look. “Our fall menu will be created with local farmers. All our meals will be staple-based while incorporating seasonality.” A visit to the Wrigley Mansion is an experience—the art and architecture coupled with the fantastic food mean seeing Arizona all in one magnificent location.

Beyond earning countless local awards and recognition for his talents in Arizona, including winning the 2013 Ripe Award, Bernie has also cooked at the James Beard House and been featured in Bon Appetit and Food & Wine Magazine. Bernie has been honing his craft since he was a young boy in upstate New York. “Having grown up in one of the most bountiful areas in the country for vegetables and freshwater fish, with a family whose gatherings revolved around food, it was inevitable that I would grow to love entertaining and cooking,” he says. After attending Scottsdale Culinary Institute, Bernie rooted himself in the Valley and opened The Gladly in 2013. The concept is creative, with globally inspired New American fare joined with a menu of 200-plus whiskeys, all in a stylish bistro setting. Perhaps most famous of his dishes is the original chopped salad. It features chopped arugula, smoked salmon, freeze-dried corn, marinated Roma tomatoes, Israeli couscous, black currants, toasted pepitas, ground-aged asiago cheese and a special buttermilk dressing. Bernie’s salad has amassed such a dedicated following that it now has its own Facebook page.

GROWING UP IN THE MIDWEST, CONNIE KIRCHNER, CREATOR AND OWNER OF LOVE'N THE KITCHEN, WAS TAUGHT THAT THE KITCHEN WAS THE HEART OF THE HOME. Her mother and grandmother prepared delicious meals from scratch, and that was a mindset that stuck with Connie. "The kitchens in Scottsdale and Paradise Valley are breathtaking yet seem to be

thought of as more of a showcase. My goal became wanting to teach others how to enjoy the art of cooking at home with their families," she says. Connie started small. She began teaching moms at her child's preschool how to make easy meals. Before she knew it, the Arizona press was writing stories about her, and Love'n the Kitchen was born. With the help of local superstar chefs like Kevin Binkley, Beau Macmillan, Lee Hillson and Vincent Guerithault debuting as her first guest chefs, Connie gained credibility in the Valley foodie scene. Thirteen years later, Connie has built a thriving business that offers guests a large array of options in the cooking realm. "We are the only cooking school in Arizona to be sponsored by Sub-Zero,

Wolf, Challenge Dairy and more. We offer cooking clubs, guest chef events, private/custom classes and seasonal a la carte classes. In 2019, we hope to add International Food Tours and Culinary Adventures to our menu of opportunities for clients. Creating a homecooked meal really is the best way to share Love’n the Kitchen, and we make it easy and fun," she says.

Connie shares her kitchen must-haves: 01 | LOVE SPICE: A wonderful, all-purpose spice which has a base of Sea Gris French sea salt, is sugarless and hosts other proprietary blended ingredients.

02 | SPAGHETTI SQUASH: Abundant in fall and easy to prepare, this squash just

needs a few cuts and ten minutes or so in the microwave. Combine with your favorite pizza or pasta ingredients, or choose brown sugar and cinnamon for a fiber-rich breakfast or sweet treat.

03 | SILICONE-TIPPED TONGS: This versatile gadget won’t damage cookware and helps with even cooking.

04 | KITCHEN SHEARS: Specifically designed to come apart for easy cleaning, (most

are dishwasher-safe), this tool trims meats, debones poultry, snips herbs and much more.

05 | PAMPERED CHEF GARLIC PRESS: No need to peel the cloves of garlic; this press is so simple and fast, you can mince without any chopping. Tip: Always use fresh garlic for optimal taste and freshness.

06 | MICROPLANE: Perfect for zesting any citrus, shaving hard cheeses, grating chocolate, fresh nutmeg and even garlic, this gadget easily replaces or compliments a garlic press.
