Interesting Facts About Winter
T
he winter solstice marks the first day of winter. . Though it’s common to think of the winter solstice as an event that spans an entire day, it actually occurs for just a moment — specifically when a hemisphere is tilted as far away from the sun as it can be. Winter is widely known as the coldest time of the year in most locales, but that’s not the only thing that makes the season unique. Explore these other cold, hard facts about wintertime. • The Earth actually is closest to the sun in December, even though the winter solstice is the shortest day of the year. The amount of daylight hours has to do with the tilt of the Earth on its axis rather than its proximity to the sun. • The Southern Hemisphere, due to having less land mass and a more maritime climate, tends to have milder winters than the Northern Hemisphere. • According to Smithsonian, ancient Romans used daylight and darkness to determine the
time. As a result, an hour in ancient Rome lasted 45 minutes in the winter and 75 minutes in the summer. • Two islands, called Big Diomede and Little Diomede, are located in the Bering Strait, which divides Alaska from Russia. Big Diomede is owned by Russia, while Little Diomede is owned by the United States. The 2.5 mile stretch between these two islands often freezes over in winter, technically making it possible to walk from the U.S. to Russia, according to Alaska Centers Public Land Information. • Snow is common in many areas during the winter. The highest snowfall ever recorded in a one-year period in the U.S. occurred at Mount Rainier, in Washington. Between February 19, 1971, and February 18, 1972, 31.1 meters (1,224 inches) of snow fell. • Russia remains the coldest country in the world during the winter. Canada and Mongolia are not too far behind.
• The largest snowflake ever recorded measured 15 inches wide. It was found in Fort Keogh, Montana. • A city in Sweden uses light therapy in bus stops to help combat seasonal affective disorder during winter, when 19 hours of darkness are common. • Unlike hurricanes and other summer storms, winter storms are not named by the National Weather Service. • Snowflakes are translucent, not white. • No country in the Southern
Hemisphere has hosted or applied to host the Winter Olympics. • Most weather-related crashes in the U.S. happen on wet pavement during rainfall rather than during snow or sleet, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation. Winter might be seen as a cold period marked by dark days, but there’s still a lot of interesting things going on between the winter solstice and the spring equinox.
Driving In A Winter Wonderland: 5 Safety Tips
T
hough the winter season has its joys, it also brings unique challenges – especially when venturing out in hazardous weather. According to the Federal Highway Administration, 24% of all weather-related vehicle crashes happen on snowy, slushy and icy pavement, while 15% occur during snowfall or sleet. Here are five tips to protect yourself, your loved ones and your vehicle this season. 1. Invest in winter tires. Snow and ice can turn roads
into a slippery nightmare, posing a real threat for drivers. Winter tires, also known as snow tires, are uniquely designed to increase traction in these conditions and can help avoid accidents. 2. Clear snow and ice before hitting the road. Though it can be tempting not to, especially when you’re in a rush, you should always fully scrape your vehicle’s windows and remove snow from its surface before driving. Leaving ice and snow to melt is more dangerous than you might think. It can slide

down the windshield and block your view of the road, or even fly into nearby traffic, causing damage or obstructing the vision of other drivers. 3. Keep your distance. Ever heard of the “three-second rule”? Experts recommend leaving three seconds of distance between your vehicle and those ahead of you. To do this, watch the car ahead of you pass a landmark, then count to three. It should be at least three seconds before your car reaches the landmark. When the roads are slick or icy, be sure to widen the gap. Should you need to stop suddenly, the extra space will lower your chances of a collision. 4. Slow down! A recent national survey by Erie Insurance found that one in 10 drivers admitted to driving at extreme speeds (20 mph or more over the speed limit) during the early months of the pandemic, and many respondents say drivers are still going way faster than normal. Speeding is always dangerous and can be even more hazardous

when roads are icy, making it harder to control the vehicle and avoid skidding. If your vehicle begins to skid, turn the steering wheel towards the direction you need to go. 5. Monitor and improve driving behaviors. Identify bad habits and become a safer driver year-round with a smartphone app like YourTurn from Erie Insurance. YourTurn analyzes behaviors such as hard braking, speeding and phone use, and offers incentives for safe driving through rewards that can be redeemed for gift cards or donated to charity. “It’s especially important to be mindful of your driving behavior in the winter time,” says Jon Bloom, vice president of personal auto at Erie Insurance. “By incentivizing safe driving habits, we hope to make the roads safer for everyone.” For safer driving experiences, be sure you and your car are prepared to handle road conditions, this season and beyond.

Why ‘Presidents’ Day’ Goes By Another Official Name
A
n official list of federal holidays in the United States won’t feature “Presidents’ Day” among the observed holidays. Some may say that’s preposterous, as they’re certain that post offices and other federal entities are closed on such a day each February. While the third Monday of February is commonly referred to as “Presidents’ Day” throughout the United States, the day is legally referred to as “Washington’s Birthday.” According to the U.S. Office of Personnel Management, this holiday is designated as “Washington’s Birthday” in section 6103(a) of title 5 of the United States Code, which is the law that specifies holidays for federal employees. Though other institutions, such as state and local governments and private businesses may use other names, it is OPM official holiday was signed into law in 1879 policy to always refer to holidays by the names by President Rutherford B. Hayes. Originally, designated in the law. the holiday only applied to the District of Columbia, but in 1885 it was expanded to the History of entire country. Abraham Lincoln, another revered American Washington’s Birthday The idea to give presidents a little extra president whose birthday was February 12, fanfare originally was established in 1885 also was largely celebrated during the month in recognition of George Washington. After of February as a state holiday, particularly in his death in 1799, Washington’s birthday on his home state of Illinois. In the 1960s, when February 22 became a day of remembrance, Congress proposed a measure known as the according to History.com. Its observance as an Uniform Monday Holiday Act that designated www.longislandmediagroup.com/seasons-magazine
EDITION SIX
Monday as the day to celebrate various federal holidays, the proposal also included a provision to combine the celebration of Washington’s and Lincoln’s birthdays to provide more equal recognition of these two influential leaders. The name Presidents’ Day was proposed at that time. However, when the bill moving the celebration of Washington’s birthday to the third Monday in February went into effect in 1971, Congress rejected the name change, so it remained Washington’s Birthday. That name stands to this day.
Why Presidents’ Day?
Even though federal calendars will list February 15 this year as Washington’s Birthday, it will largely be referred to as Presidents’ Day. This unofficial moniker developed in the 1970s due largely in part to retailer’s use of that name to promote sales and the proximity of the holiday to both the birthdays of Washington and Lincoln. Indeed, a Washington’s Birthday furniture sale doesn’t have the same ring to it as a Presidents’ Day sale. No matter what the holiday is called, Presidents’ Day offers citizens a chance to learn more about the history behind Washington and Lincoln — two pivotal statesmen in American history.

Shovel Snow Safely This Winter
T
he beauty of freshly fallen snow is undeniable. Such beauty compels millions of people across the globe to ski and snowboard each winter, while millions more enjoy simply looking out their windows at snow-covered landscapes. If it was as convenient as it is beautiful, snow would likely be welcomed with open arms whenever the local weatherperson includes it in his or her forecast, but heavy snowfall can be inconvenient, making it difficult to travel and even creating more work for individuals responsible for shoveling their driveways and walkways. Shoveling snow can increase a person’s risk for injury, and some may be surprised to learn just how frequently such injuries happen. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission notes that, in 2018, more than 137,000 people needed medical assistance for injuries that happened while shoveling snow or using snowblowers. Sprains and strains in the back and shoulders are the most common injuries when shoveling snow, but people also can suffer lacerations and injuries related to belowfreezing temperatures when shoveling snow. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons recommends people keep these safety precautions in mind when shoveling snow this winter. • Stretch before shoveling. Just like you would do before exercising in a gym, stretch prior to picking up your snow shovel. Warm up your muscles with some light exercise for
10 minutes to reduce your risk of sprains, strains and muscle tears. • Stay hydrated and take frequent breaks. The AAOS notes that snow shoveling and snow blowing are aerobic activities. Such activities require participants to be hydrated. In addition, taking frequent breaks can help prevent injuries. • Avoid shoveling snow if you’re at risk for heart attack. Some people should avoid shoveling snow entirely. According to the Harvard Medical School, researchers correlated hospital admissions and deaths due to heart attack the day after it snowed in Canada between 1981 and 2014. Researchers found that the deeper the snow, the more men died of heart attacks. In fact, researchers found that there was a 34 percent increase in heart attack deaths the day after an eight-inch snowfall, and those rates increased when snowfall increased. Most deaths were men, but both men and women who are at risk of heart attack should avoid shoveling snow, particularly after heavy snowfall. Adults who are unsure of their heart health should consult with their physicians prior to shoveling snow. • Use the right equipment. Ergonomic snow shovels can make shoveling less taxing, reducing your risk for sprains and strains. Spacing hands on the tool grip can increase leverage, making shoveling easier and less likely to lead to injury. • Pushing snow instead of lifting it. The AAOS recommends pushing rather than lifting snow
when possible. If snow must be lifted, squat with your legs, knees bent and back straight. When lifting, lift with your legs and do not bend at the waist. Scoop small amounts of snow at a time and walk to where you want to dump. The AAOS warns against holding shovels full of snow with arms outstretched, as doing so puts too much weight on the spine. Snow should not be thrown over the shoulder, as such a technique requires a twisting motion that puts stress on the back. In addition, the AAOS notes that heavy wet snow should be removed in pieces and not all at once. Anyone can get injured while shoveling snow. Such injuries are preventable when certain safety measures are taken.
How To Plan For Medical Emergencies
M
edical emergencies pose a significant threat to human health. According to the National Center for Health Statistics, unintentional injuries accounted for more than 192,000 deaths in 2020. That marks a significant increase since 2015, when NCHS data indicates roughly 146,000 people died from unintentional injuries. Unintentional injuries are not the only situations that qualify as medical emergencies, which also can result from sudden, lifethreatening issues like heart attack or stroke. Knowing what to do in the wake of a medical emergency can reduce the likelihood that such instances end in tragedy. And though medical emergencies might be most often associated with aging men and women, such scenarios can affect anyone at any time. That means it’s in everyone’s best interest to learn how to plan for medical emergencies. • Document your medical history and keep printed documentation in an easily accessible place. Younger individuals likely won’t have as much documentation regarding their medical histories, including existing conditions, medications and even previous emergencies. But all individuals should print out a document that includes a brief rundown of their medical histories, and keep the document in an easily accessible place so caretakers, spouses or roommates can quickly find it and share all relevant information with first responders.
www.longislandmediagroup.com/seasons-magazine
• Pack an overnight bag. Aging men and women or young people with a history of illness and/or medical emergencies should pack an overnight bag or ask their caretakers to pack one for them. Include pajamas, personal toiletries and other care items, and even some books or activity books so you have something to do should you require an extended stay in the hospital. Include a spare phone or device charger in your overnight bag, as it’s easy to forget such items when you’re hurrying out the door in an emergency situation. • Become CPR - certified. The medical experts at MedStar Health recommend that individuals take classes for first aid and CPR. Such lessons can save lives and help anyone experiencing a medical emergency get immediate attention until first responders arrive to administer additional care. Some organizations may offer free CPR courses, while others, including the American Red Cross, offer training at affordable prices. • Map out the quickest route to the nearest emergency room. Modern drivers are accustomed to relying on their car’s GPS systems to get from point A to point B. However, during a medical emergency it’s ideal if individuals or caretakers already know where the nearest hospital is and how to get there. That removes uncertainties from the situation and ensures that precious seconds won’t be wasted trying to get devices to connect with automobiles.

The Benefits of Exercise
A
ccording to the National Institutes of Health, exercise is an effective way for individuals to reduce their risk for heart disease. Exercise strengthens the heart and improves circulation, an increase in blood flow that raises oxygen levels in the body. That's a significant side effect, as it helps lower an individual's risk for various types of heart disease, including high cholesterol, coronary artery disease and heart attack. Exercise also is an effective way for individuals to maintain a healthy weight. That, too, benefits the heart, as the American Heart Association reports that people who have excess body fat - especially if it is at the waist - are more likely to develop heart disease and stroke, even if they have no other risk factors.

Flowers And Their Various Meanings
Givers’ Guide To Valentine’s Day Jewelry
V
alentine’s Day is a great opportunity to bring a little sunshine into a special someone’s life. Nestled between the end of the holiday rush and the beginning of spring renewal, Valentine’s Day occurs at a time of year when days are short, weather is chilly and people might be looking for an excuse to celebrate. Gifts that accompany romantic sentiments expressed on Valentine’s Day can make the holiday that much more memorable. The National Retail Federation says that around 20 percent of Valentine’s celebrants are expected to buy jewelry as gifts. Jewelry is a personal gift and one that should be presented with care. These tips can help Valentine’s Day celebrants as they give that special someone jewelry. • Opt for jewelry only if you’re in an established relationship. Roma Designer Jewelry says jewelry can “speak” commitment without saying a word. Those who are living together, have been dating for some time or married couples are good candidates for exchanging jewelry, which can reinforce couples’ commitment to one another. • Mark milestones. Use jewelry to celebrate not only Valentine’s Day, but also milestone events. Jewelry can be given on a special birthday or anniversary in commemoration of children being born and other special moments. • Take note of style. Scour social media posts or peek inside an existing jewelry box to use as a visual guide for clues regarding the style of jewelry your partner prefers. This makes shopping easier and increases the chances the item will be a hit.

• Pay attention to allergies. Metal allergies are a consideration when purchasing jewelry. Earrings tend to be the biggest culprits for allergic reactions because posts are inserted into the earlobe. If you’re unsure if your partner has a metal allergy, stick to sterling silver and 14k gold. Always opt for nickel-free materials. • Plan in advance. Many jewelry stores run sales throughout the summer and the fall, so shoppers can get jewelry at a discount at these times. Zales recommends staying informed of special deals through a favorite jewelry retailer by signing up for emails. Engraving time may be longer around Valentine’s Day, so plan accordingly. • Stick with simple classics. Those who are unsure what to buy can opt for simple, classic items. Stay away from anything with a lot of color or beading. Small, delicate items tend to have universal appeal. Jewelry is a popular Valentine’s Day gift. When buyers put the time in to find the right piece, they can be confident knowing they’ve given that special someone an item they will cherish for years.

lowers can represent various emotions. Flowers play a prominent role in many and holidays, perhaps none more than Valentine’s Day. Valentine’s Day is a busy day for florists. ProFlowers says it accounts for most of the industry’s fresh flower sales. Around 78 percent of the flowers purchased for Valentine’s Day are cut flowers, and men are the top consumers. Roses are the go-to flower on Valentine’s Day, but shoppers can look to various blooms to send the right message to that special someone in their lives. In fact, each type of flower conveys its own unique message. ProFlowers and Pickup Flowers note that the following are some popular blooms and the messages those flowers are traditionally associated with. • Amaryllis: This flower is symbolic of splendid beauty and can be used to indicate worth. • Aster: The aster symbolizes patience, elegance and daintiness.
EDITION SIX
• Calla Lily: This bloom symbolizes magnificence and beauty, as well as purity and innocence. That is why Calla lilies are often the flower of choice in wedding bouquets. • Carnations: These are one of the most popular flowers in the world and are generally symbolic of love and fascination. • Daffodil: Daffodils symbolize regard and chivalry. They also can be indicative of rebirth, new beginnings and eternal life. A single daffodil can signal misfortune, while a bunch expresses joy and happiness. • Gerbera Daisies: With large, beautiful blooms in a wide assortment of vibrant colors, gerbera daisies are a favorite flower for cheerful sentiments. • Gladioluses: These tall, striking flowers are eye-catching and make great gifts for significant others. The gladiolus symbolizes honor, infatuation and strength. • Iris: Irises represent faith, hope and wisdom and are cherished for their big, beautiful blooms. • Peony: This flower, which resembles a rose, symbolizes a happy life, happy marriage, prosperity, and good health. • Rose: Roses symbolize love in its various forms, and different colors of roses symbolize different things. For example, yellow roses represent care and friendship, while pink roses are given as a token of admiration. Flowers are popular gifts come Valentine’s Day. Choosing a flower that best represents the feelings gift-givers want to convey can incorporate even more meaning into a bouquet or basket.

Warm Up With Stew On Cold Winter Nights
H
earty meals are best on cold nights, when food can provide a warming effect after coming in from the cold outdoors. This recipe for “Boeuf Bourguignon” from Jill Lightner’s “Edible Seattle: The Cookbook” (Sterling Epicure) is sure to provide such an effect.
Boeuf Bourguignon Serves 6 generously 2 pounds beef shoulder, cut into 2-inch pieces (see note) 1 onion, cut into large dice 2 carrots, cut into large dice 2 stalks celery, cut into large dice 2 dried bay leaves 4 sprigs fresh thyme 7 sprigs fresh flat-leaf parsley 1⁄4 teaspoon black peppercorns 1 bottle red wine Salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 tablespoon canola oil 1⁄4 pound slab bacon, cut into large dice 1⁄2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter 1⁄4 cup all-purpose flour 4 cups beef stock 2 large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into large dice 1 pound pearl onions, blanched and peeled 1 pound button mushrooms, diced
Directions: 1. Put the beef chunks in a large bowl and add the onion, carrots and celery. In a piece of cheesecloth, tie together a bouquet of garni of the bay leaves, thyme, parsley, and peppercorns and add to the bowl. Pour in the bottle of wine. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator overnight, stirring the mixture once or twice over the course of the evening. 2. The next day, remove the meat from the marinade and dry the pieces in a shallow pan lined with several layers of paper towels. Remove the vegetables and reserve them separately, along with the bouquet garni. Reserve the wine. Season the beef with salt and pepper. 3. In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, warm the canola oil. Add the bacon and cook until browned and the fat is rendered, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon from the pot and set aside. In single-layer batches, brown the beef chunks on all sides, then set aside. Brown the reserved onions, carrots and celery, about 10 minutes. Add additional canola oil to the pot if there is not enough bacon fat to brown all of the beef and vegetables. 4. Return the beef to the pot with the vegetables and add 3 tablespoons of the butter. Sprinkle with the flour and cook, stirring, for about 3 www.longislandmediagroup.com/seasons-magazine
minutes. Add the reserved wine and deglaze the pot, scraping up all the browned bits from the bottom. Add the bacon and stock and bring to a boil. Skim off the scum that rises to the top; once the scum is removed, add the bouquet garni. Simmer, covered, over medium-low heat until the beef is very tender, about 11⁄2 hours. Remove the bouquet garni. 5. Toward the end of the beef’s cooking time, bring the potatoes to a boil in a separate saucepan covered generously with salted water. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes. 6. In a medium sauté pan, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter over mediumhigh heat. Add the pearl onions and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms to the onions and cook until both onions and mushrooms are golden brown, about 5 minutes longer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. 7. Serve the stew in bowls, garnished with the pearl onions, mushrooms and potatoes. Note: When shopping for beef, you won’t find a cut labeled “beef shoulder” — what you want is either a chuck roast of some sort or, from a bit lower on the shoulder, a cut labeled either “arm roast” or “round bone roast.”

Cheesecake Makes A Decadent Valentine’s Day Treat
A
cheesecake recipe can be useful on any special occasion, and especially so on Valentine’s Day. For many people, cheesecake is not cheesecake without the addition of ricotta cheese. While ricotta is included in savory dishes like lasagna or manicotti, it is at home in desserts like cheesecake as well. Ricotta means “recooked” in Italian, and its production involves reheating the whey left over from making other cheeses, like mozzarella. Its texture is like a creamy/ grainy, thick sour cream. Ricotta is included in this recipe for “Ricotta Cheesecake With Coffee and Chocolate” from “Nick Stellino’s Family Kitchen” (G.P. Putnam’s Sons) by Nick Stellino, but it is not the only flavorful ingredient in this decadent dish. Coffee liqueur, chocolate and lemon zest add to the complex profile — which only get more pronounced if you prepare this cake a day in advance.
Ricotta Cheesecake With Coffee And Chocolate (Tortino al caffè e ciccolato) Serves 8 to 10 1 cup graham cracker crumbs 2 tablespoons butter, melted 2 tablespoons sugar, plus 1⁄2 cup sugar 2 lbs. ricotta cheese, drained of excess liquid 8 eggs, separated 1/2 cup cream 1/4 cup espresso or extra strong coffee, cooled 1/4 cup coffee liqueur 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate morsels (optional)
Directions: Preheat the oven to 325 F. Make a graham cracker crust by mixing together the melted butter with the crumbs, and sugar. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Mix together the ricotta, sugar, egg yolks, cream, espresso, coffee liqueur, lemon zest, and salt until creamy. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Carefully fold the egg whites into the ricotta mixture. Stir in the chocolate morsels and pour onto the prepared crumb crust. Bake the cake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until just set in the middle. The cake will still seem wobbly, but will be lightly browned and cracked around the edges. Remove the cake from the oven and cool on a rack for 30 minutes. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 6 hours or overnight before running a sharp knife along the edge of the cake and removing the pan. Cut into wedges to serve. Garnish with shaved chocolate and strawberries, if desired. www.longislandmediagroup.com/seasons-magazine

A Taste Of Traditional Irish Cooking
S
t. Patrick’s Day is an opportunity for the world to celebrate Ireland’s patron saint and Irish culture with family, friends, food, and fun. Many St. Patrick’s Day traditions have been passed down through generations. This includes various foods and recipes that are native to Ireland that have spread around the globe thanks to the vast Irish diaspora. When dishing up new traditions at home, try this recipe for “Traditional Irish Colcannon” courtesy of Kerrygold, producers of Irish butters and cheeses. Colcannon is a mashed potato recipe made even more savory with the inclusion of cabbage and other ingredients. Serve with corned beef, Irish bacon or Irish stew.
Traditional Irish Colcannon Serves 8 2 pounds red potatoes, cut into large chunks 3⁄4 cup milk 3⁄4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
6 tablespoons Kerrygold Salted Butter, plus additional melted butter, if desired
Cook potatoes in boiling water about 20 minutes or until very tender; drain well and mash with skins on, adding milk and salt.
1 cup chopped onion
While potatoes are cooking, melt butter in a large skillet.
6 cups finely shredded green cabbage (or one 10-ounce package)
Add onion; cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until very soft.
Add cabbage; cook and stir for 5 minutes more or until very soft. 1 cup (about 4 ounces) shredded Kerrygold Dubliner® Cheese or Blarney Stir cabbage mixture and Kerrygold cheese into hot potatoes and season with pepper.

Test Your Culinary Chops With Quiche
C
heese is a comfort food that boasts a sizable fan base. There are all sorts of appealing cheeses to cater to any craving, ranging from soft varieties like ricotta or brie to hard cheeses like Pecorino Romano or gorgonzola. Cheese features prominently in many dishes, including quiche. Quiche is a rich, cheese custard tart that originated in France. While there are many varieties of quiche, Quiche Lorraine is perhaps the best-known and the blueprint upon which all other quiches are based. Individuals who want to try their hand at crafting this beloved dish can utilize this recipe for “Quiche Lorraine” from “French Classics Made Easy” (Workman Publishing) by Richard Grausman.
Quiche Lorraine Serves 6 to 8
Tart pastry 1 1⁄3 cups all-purpose flour 8 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into eight pieces 1 egg 1⁄8 teaspoon salt 1 1⁄2 tablespoons cold water
Filling 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 2 eggs plus 1 egg yolk 1 1⁄2 cups milk 1⁄4 teaspoon salt 1⁄8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg 1⁄4 pound ham (boiled, baked or smoked), diced or 8 strips of cooked bacon, crumbled 1⁄4 pound Swiss-style cheese, such as Gruyère or Emmentaler, diced, sliced, or grated (about 1 1⁄3 cups)
Directions: 1. Preheat the oven to 475 F with the rack set in the middle position. 2. Place all of the tart pastry ingredients into the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade and process until the mixture blends together to form a mass, about 20 seconds. If it doesn’t form a mass after 25 seconds, add another teaspoon of water. 3. Turn the pastry out onto a lightly floured work surface, dust the pastry lightly with flour and begin the blending or kneading process known as “fraisage”: With the heel of your hand, push the pastry down and away from you a little at a time and repeat this process three or four times or until the pastry is smooth and does not stick to the work surface. 4. Lightly dust the pastry with flour and shape into a flat round, much like a thick hamburger. The pastry can be used immediately, unless it is too warm and soft. In which case, wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10 to 20 minutes. 5. Line a 91⁄2- or 10-inch tart pan with removable bottom with the pastry. 6. Prick the pastry, line it with aluminum foil, and weight it with 1 pound of dried rice or aluminum pie weights. Bake until the edges of the pastry begin to color, about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and remove the foil and beans from the pan. Spread the mustard over the bottom of the pastry. Lower the oven temperature to 425 F. 7. In a bowl, beat the eggs and yolk lightly. Blend in the milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. 8. Spread the ham and cheese evenly over the bottom of the tart shell. Pour the custard into the tart shell to within 1⁄8-inch of the top of the crust. Holding the tart pan by the outer rim (so as not to dislodge the bottom), place the pan in the oven. 9. Bake until the custard puffs, 25 to 30 minutes. 10. Unmold as soon as possible. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting into wedges and serving. The quiche is delicious served at any temperature. www.longislandmediagroup.com/seasons-magazine

Tips To Lower Your Home’s Heating Bills This Winter
A
frosty winter wonderland is fun to experience -- outside. Inside is another story. By keeping your home heating system running at peak performance, you'll lower your winter utility bills and experience increased comfort. According to North American Technician Excellence (NATE), here’s how to stay toasty this winter without breaking the bank. Get the Right Equipment It all starts with the right heating equipment. Choosing a furnace with an ENERGY STAR logo is important, however, it’s also a good idea to understand standard efficiency ratings so you can easily compare the performance of different systems. When you need to measure the thermal efficiency of your furnace or water heater, Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) helps determine the actual, annual, average efficiency of that piece of equipment. It measures the amount of heat delivered to your house compared to the amount of fuel that you must supply to the furnace. The U.S. Department of Energy determined that all furnaces sold in the U.S. must have a minimum AFUE of 78%. The Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) is the most commonly used measure

You can help your technician diagnose a potential problem with your heating equipment by being prepared to share important information, such as the age, brand and model of your furnace and whether it’s been leaking, making unusual noises or emitting odors. With a combination highefficiency equipment, a little DIY and the help of professional expertise, you can stay warm and cozy on-budget, all season long. (StatePoint)
Work With Experts Be sure all work performed on your heating equipment is carried out by a trustworthy, NATE-certified technician. Even the most efficient system can suffer if it’s not properly maintained. NATE-certified technicians have demonstrated knowledge of today’s heating and cooling systems.
