Happy Easter While bunnies are associated with Easter, the meaning behind the holiday is the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus. Easter, unlike many holidays, is movable, not falling on a fixed calendar date each year. This year Easter falls on April 5, and in the days before, children across the country will spend their time perfecting a beloved Easter tradition — the art of dyeing hard boiled eggs. Many organizations and municipalities in Bureau and Putnam counties will host Easter egg hunts this weekend for local children. Area churches will have special Easter services planned to celebrate the true meaning of the holiday. IV Scene photo/Terri Simon

It almost scared you to death. That’s what it seemed like: Heart pounding, palms sweaty, legs weak — but still in one piece, breathing again, thankful Terri that you Schlichenmeyer only had a near-miss. History, however, is not so benign, as you’ll see in “Dead Wake” by Erik Larson. William Thomas Turner “excelled” at his job. Though no one would call him charming — he hated pretending as such — Turner had steadfastly worked through the ranks to become Captain of the Cunard Steam-Ship Company’s Lusitania, a premiere ocean liner. With over 200 successful trips across the Atlantic Ocean, “The ship endured.” That record was important to her 1,265 passengers. Each of them appreciated the luxury (lengthy menus, gardens, and “20 cubic feet” of luggage allowed), and speed (up to 25 knots) that the Lusitania promised. And since Germany had issued warnings to all ships entering British waters, passengers appreciated the ship’s safety, and they scoffed. “The Lusitania was simply too big and too fast” for any real threat. In Washington D.C., President Woodrow Wilson was doubly-bereft: with his wife Ellen dead not quite a year, he’d fallen in love again. Edith Bolling Galt gently discouraged him as was war waged between Britain and Germany, but Wilson would do “all he could to keep America neutral” … and to get Edith to marry him. To those who served with him, Kptlt. Walther Schweiger was a conundrum: known for his sense of humor with those aboard Unterseeboot-20, Schweiger was also renowned for his “callousness.” Life aboard a German U-boat was not pleasant, but Schweiger ensured that his men were happy. He had much less compassion for anyone on a ship in his sights. On May 1, 1915, the Lusitania prepared to leave New York City en route to Liverpool, but
Cliffnotes “Dead Wake: The Last Crossing of the Lusitania” by Erik Larson. 2015, Crown. $28/$32.50 Canada. 431 pages. first, it had business to tend to: a nearby British luxury liner had been conscripted and its passengers re-assigned. Getting them aboard took an extra two hours; the Lusitania, therefore, was late getting out to sea. Says Larson, “Even the briefest delay could shape history.” So you think you know what happened nearly a century ago. So did author Erik Larson but as he researched, he “quickly realized how wrong” he was about the Lusitania. And so will you, as you immerse yourself inside “Dead Wake.” This story of a ship, however, wouldn’t be nearly as fascinating without the story of those hating it, in charge of it, on it, and not on it. Indeed, as Larson tells a thousand tiny stories of passengers and foes, bravery and duty, we become wrapped up in each tale, needing to know each individual fate. It’s also, therefore, easy to become uneasy: menace is like fog here because we know. Larson’s account of this historic event made me want to scream “Watch out!” loud enough to be heard 100 years ago. While it’s a sure-bet for historians, I also think thriller fans will love this book, too. If your heart doesn’t pound while reading “Dead Wake,” in fact, get it checked. You might be dead, too.

It won’t be long until the Easter season will be upon us. I’ve got a few recipes you can serve to company or to your own family.
Judy Dyke
Flavorful Lamb Chops 1/2 cup orange juice 1/2 cup lime juice 2 tablespoons caraway seeds 2 teaspoons grated orange peel 6 lamb loin chops (about 1 3/4 pounds) 1 tablespoon canola oil 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper 1/2 cup chicken broth Fresh orange slices and parsley sprigs, optional In a small bowl, combine the orange juice, lime juice, caraway seeds and orange peel. Pour half of the marinade into a large resalable plastic bag, add lamb chops. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade. Drain and discard marinade from lamb. In a nonstick skillet over medium high heat, brown chops on both sides in oil until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Season with salt and pepper. Remove chops and keep warm. Add broth and reserved marinade to the skillet.; bring to a boil. Return chops to pan; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Uncover and simmer 10 minutes longer. Serve chops with the pan juices. Garnish with oranges and parsley if desired.

for friends or a family dinner, celebrate the holiday by creating a beautifully set table. For the centerpiece, create a handmade “nest” out of branches or crinkle paper and place it on top of a cake plate – this is the perfect place to showcase your children’s beautifully decorated eggs. Complement the “egg nest” with small bud vases of single blooms and pastel napkins to create pops of color around the table. Party treats Easter wouldn’t be Easter without delicious treats! To show you are the host with the most, consider setting up a candy buffet and invite guests to pick a selection of their favorite sweets. Keep in mind that not everyone has the same tastes, so be sure to offer an assortment of treats, like a selection of milk and dark chocolates, lollypops, springtime truffles, and sour bunnies for pucker-up fun. Always make sure
