Q:
What does it mean to strengthen your “core” and how does it help?
ADVERTISEMENT
NEW TO THE COMMUNITY INTRODUCING
Photo by Dante Fontana.
A: Your core encompasses the muscles from your hips to your shoulders—basically the trunk of your body. Strengthening your core has a tremendous impact on the overall health and alignment of your body. A strong core is the basis for your body functioning properly. When you’re properly aligned, you drastically decrease your chance of injury. It also alleviates and prevents back injury and offsets the aging process by assisting you in maintaining proper posture. Having a strong, healthy spine will also increase the efficiency of your body sending messages to your brain. You will also look better, by standing taller, and obtain a flatter waistline by strengthening the four layers of your abdominal wall. —Sandra Lemos, Owner The Dailey Method Downtown Sacramento/Folsom/Roseville 916-351-8361, thedaileymethod.com June 2015 - stylefedh.com 9

hen Ernie Sheldon was just 17 years old, he asked his mother for permission to enlist in the military. This was in 1952, during the peak of the Korean War, and the decision proved life-changing. While he never saw combat firsthand, Sheldon ended up spending over three decades in the United States Air Force. He traveled all around the world, and lived through some of the most tumultuous periods in U.S. history. After retiring from the military and moving to Folsom in 1985 with his wife and daughter, Sheldon found that he missed the community spirit he’d experienced during his years of service. He started attending city council meetings, and soon became increasingly involved in community 14 stylefedh.com - June 2015
groups, particularly the Folsom Parks and Recreation Commission. Over his tenure with the commission, he helped build over 45 parks in the area, including one that still carries his name (the Ernie Sheldon Youth Sports Park on Natoma Station Drive). In 1992, Sheldon lost his wife to cancer, but found solace in his community activities. Since 2008, he’s served on the Folsom City Council and is especially passionate about supporting area veterans through activities such as the Wayne Spence Veterans Day Parade. Although he’s now 80 years young, Sheldon has no plans to slow down. “I’m healthy. I’m in good shape,” Sheldon shares. “As long as I can keep working and giving back, I’m going to do it.” — Amber Foster

Public Art Gets a Facelift
F
olsom has a diverse collection of public art for everyone to experience and enjoy. Many of the works are located in Folsom neighborhoods and help create a unique identity for the spaces where they’re installed. The Natoma Station Landscape and Lighting District has 21 public art pieces within the neighborhood. Most were installed more than 25 years ago and created by 14 artists, some of whom have since become internationally recognized. The various artworks are made of steel, bronze, resin, metal, ceramic and stone; some feature recognizable animals—whimsical, oversized ceramic mosaic rabbits, steel statues of deer and bronze stylized monkeys—while others feature human shapes or images from the environment, and some are purely abstract. Over the years, the artworks have endured normal wear and tear from exposure to the elements, plus some unfortunate incidents of vandalism and vehicle collisions. All of the public art pieces were evaluated to assess the repairs that were needed, and last fall the restoration process began. Two of the original 14 artists who created the Natoma Station artworks—Yoshio Taylor and Donna Billick—agreed to restore their own pieces (the remaining works were restored by art conservator Gary Dinnen). The project was funded by combining savings achieved through water conservation, postponement of some landscape renovations, and a donation from an arts advocacy group. Restoration began in spring and will be completed this summer, ensuring the longevity and enjoyment of the works for decades to come. Folsom’s other public artworks include installations at the Palladio at Broadstone, pieces honoring veterans in Folsom City Lions Park, works at some of the public schools and others. — Lesley Miller To see all of the public art and locations, visit folsom.ca.us.

pon entering Folsom Quickly, the bright, clean interiors of orange and green instantly woke me up after a somewhat dreary day. I felt a sudden surge of energy—isn’t it amazing what color can do to your mood? Wanting something between a sweet treat and a pick-me-up, I ordered a Taro Milk Tea with tapioca pearls (my favorite part!) and a serving of their Oreo Egg Puff. The lavender-colored tea was fragrant and refreshing, and I thoroughly enjoyed chewing on those tapioca pearls long after the tea was gone. The egg puff arrived hot and steaming; mildly sweetened, it was crisp on the outside and soft and light on the inside, with bits of crushed Oreo in each bite. I found myself reaching for the waffle-like delicacy every 12 seconds to tear off a piece and have it melt in my mouth. The next time I’m hungry and in a hurry, I’m going back to Quickly to try the other umpteen flavors of tea and grab another egg puff…or two.

A Walk Down Memory Lane with the Maileys by Emma Mailey
S
ometimes you’re with your family and you have a nice time. You build snowmen, roast marshmallows, swap stories and share a laugh by a cozy fire while the snow falls outside, Hallmark style. Other times, you crash a sled into a storm grate or nearly vanish looking for bargain purses. Most of the memories I share with my family are a cold, hard, occasionally uncomfortable blend of the two. When my dad first asked me to
write this, he wanted something about a favorite summer vacation and time spent together as a family from one of the kids’ points of view. You have to understand, in our family, Dad, more than anyone else, is famous for his rose-colored nostalgia, so much so that I sometimes wo n d e r wh at my early childhood was really like. For example: He’ll remember taking a five-year-old me fishing on the shores of a beautiful mountain lake. I remember that day too, but I’ll also remember we were nearly bitten to death by swarms of flies

as big as blackbirds. A game called “Top Five Favorite Memories” is one he likes to play whenever he has us trapped on a long car ride to somewhere/anywhere. My brother, Joe, usually gives eight, and they’re usually all pleasant, highly detailed recollections of events that took place when he was an infant...to which I usually argue something like, “You were literally two months old when that happened—you don’t remember that,” and he responds with something like, “Shut up, idiot.” The youngest, Sam, excuses himself from the game by calmly stating that it’s “stupid.” And then it’s my turn, and I let fly my favorites. “That time on the sled hill when I couldn’t stop and almost slid into an open storm drain”...“That time Mom and I followed a gal into a shady New York warehouse to look at designer purses”...“That time in San Francisco when a hobo wanted to fight Dad.” Clearly, my glasses are of a slightly different shade. Last Labor Day weekend we took a trip to the North Shore of Lake Tahoe. My dad had planned the entire thing around this majestic fireworks show that would happen the last night across the lake from us in South Shore. “It’ll be great,” he said. “No crowds…just the lake, the fireworks and us!” It was late summer, so the mountain air was already cooling at night, but we’d forgotten that. In T-shirts and shorts we trudged down to the beach, ready to “ooo” and “ahh” at all the bombs that would soon be bursting in the air. Cold, cold air. Soon my teeth were chattering loud enough to wake the nearby bears. One brother clutched his camera for whatever warmth it could provide. My other brother folded himself inside a thin sweatshirt, not moving, possibly dead. But all that was forgotten when suddenly we heard a faint “POP” and there, on the lake’s far shore, was the tiniest firework we’d ever seen, followed by several more just as tiny—their delayed reports as loud as a mouthful of Pop Rocks. Yep. Dad had failed to account for the fact that a fireworks display just isn’t going to have the same kind of majesty from 20 miles away. The cold returned, we resuscitated my brother and returned to our room to thaw. And that was it. It’s also one of my new “Top Five Favorite Memories.” After my turn, he always gets slightly flustered and asks if I have any good memories. I tell him no, he’ll shake his head, and the game abruptly comes to an end. The truth is, of course I have “good” memories with my family, but they don’t quite capture our essence as much as the other ones. We’re far from a picture-perfect family—even when we try to be—and I want to remember us exactly the way we are. Because

thearts HLB: Why classical guitar? DR: I find it to be complete in and of itself—it has melody, harmony, bass lines and rhythm. It’s intimate, enchanting, fascinating to watch, and there are some universally appealing pieces almost everyone immediately responds to. Chopin himself said: “There is nothing more beautiful than the guitar, save, perhaps, two.”
HLB:
What inspires you when creating music? DR: I’ve had a lifetime of training and practice. I started when I was six, and I’m older than dirt—kidding—but I’ve never stopped playing so it’s kind of my voice. I can express so much that can’t be captured any other way.
HLB: Why did you choose to teach? DR: I learned that most great musicians are at least part-time teachers. Teaching has turned out to be immensely rewarding. I’ve done big college classes, adult education, high school and elementary, but private lessons are the best because you get to tailor your teaching to an individual. I’ve met so many great people along the way.
HLB: What do you enjoy about your community? DR: Where to start—first and foremost, my wife and son are happy

aniel Roest fondly remembers when he was 11 years old and first heard legendary Spanish guitarist Andrés Segovia perform at UC Berkeley. That moment sparked a lifelong passion and career surrounding classical guitar. Now teaching both privately and at several colleges, Roest is the founding president and artistic director of the Sacramento Guitar Society and still manages to play at private events and local venues such as Bacchus House Wine Bar & Bistro.
HLB: What about Segovia caught your attention? DR: After five years of guitar lessons, I knew enough to appreciate the magnificence and beauty of what my mom and I were witnessing. [Segovia] was genuinely pleased to greet me backstage and took my small hand in his, smiling. I immediately began lessons with his California-based protégé Bunyan Webb,in Palo Alto. 28 stylefedh.com - June 2015

HLB: How do you find that work/life balance? DR: They say if you do what you love you’ll never work a day in life. I love my work, but I have a mortgage to pay and my family and friends are getting older and I want to spend more time with them, so it’s a challenge to achieve balance, because I work a lot. Since I work from home, however, I see my family more than many dads do. We eat dinner together every day, watch movies with each other and stay very close. After they go to bed, I’ll practice and handle business until well past midnight.

what a pain Understanding Migraines by Kristen Castillo
J
une is National Migraine Awareness Month, bringing attention to a condition the World Health Organization lists as one of the 20 most disabling illnesses on earth— one that affects 36 million Americans.
What is a migraine? “[A] migraine is one of the most common types of headaches,” says Dr. Asad Chaudhary, MD, neurologist with Mercy Medical Group. “It occurs three times more commonly in females than men,” and lasts between 4-72 hours. It has at least two of the following symptoms: “Pain on one side of the head, throbbing sensation, moderate to severe intensity, nausea/vomiting, sensitivity to light or sound and pain [that] worsens with routine physical activity,” says Nancy J. Coombes, RN, BSN, neurology/ neurosurgery manager at Kaiser Permanente, Sacramento and Roseville Medical Centers. While they typically don’t occur every day, migraines tend to be recurrent over time.
“Migraines often have certain triggers that set them off, such as eating or drinking a specific item, weather or altitude change, lack of sleep, stress or exhaustion,” says Dr. Amer Khan, MD, pediatric neurologist and sleep specialist with Sutter Medical Group. “Hormonal changes, puberty, pregnancy and menopause are often implicated in women.” Other triggers can include exercise and caffeine overuse. Coombes cites processed meats, ripened cheeses, avocado, breads made with yeast and chocolate as possible food triggers; eliminating these foods one by one may help determine which, if any, are triggers.
Explaining the Aura Before migraines start, during the “prodrome” stage, many patients may experience moodiness, fatigue and changes in taste or smell. Some patients experience symptoms that are similar to strokes, such as difficulty speaking, weakness or numbness, an upset stomach or a feeling of a heavy head or confusion. Others see flashing lights and have tunnel vision. “These symptoms are often considered to be ‘an aura’ of the migraine and can occur just before or after head pain appears, and only last a short time,” Dr. Khan says.
Treatment Headache expert Dr. Marc Lenaerts, MD, FAHS, and associate professor of clinical neurology at UC Davis, says there are four pillars of migraine treatment: proper lifestyle, abortive therapy,
rescue therapy, and prophylactic therapy. He says migraine sufferers need regular sleep, regular physical activity, avoidance of weight excess, stress management and avoidance of food triggers. Abortive therapy refers to medications that can be taken up to two days per week to relieve symptoms. “Triptans are the mainstay of such treatment and specific for migraines and may reduce the pain, nausea and vomiting, and sensitivity to light and noise,” he says, explaining patients can also take “any medication that reduces inflammation or pain in a less specific way” such as Ibuprofen. “Combination medications like Excedrin, Fioricet and Fiorinal can also be used,” says Dr. Chaudhary, cautioning patients not to use abortive medications more that 8-10 days per month “to avoid development of medication-overuse headaches.” If abortive treatment doesn’t work, rescue therapy, or the use of a stronger painkiller such as opioids or IV treatment, may be used once a month or so, according to Dr. Lenaerts. Prophylactic therapy, which is typically done for a few months until the patient has one or fewer weekly migraines, includes taking medications daily to reduce the frequency of symptoms. “Multiple Botox injections in the scalp have also been found to be effective,” says Dr. Khan, noting, “Anti-anxiety medicines are sometimes used to help with the severe distress caused by the pain, and may help the person ‘sleep the headache off.’”

Actually, I don’t wear glasses. I don't even wear contacts. It surprises some that I am an eye doctor yet have no eye problems. But I like to help people and from an early age, I always found ways to help and care for others. As a child, I would nurse my favorite stuffed Teddy back to good health, or I would heal my doll’s “broken leg”. Today, my focus is eyes. I love to help my patients see clearly so they can fully engage in their lives, the people that they care about and the things they love to do. What this looks like every day varies; some days, it means my patient gets his first pair of glasses and no longer struggles to see in the classroom. On occasion, it means monitoring the cataract that has started to cause vision loss in my patient. Some days, it means evaluating the health of my diabetic patient’s eyes to ensure they wont lose vision. I enjoy connecting with my patients, building relationships and meeting their individualized vision needs. I want my patients to look good and see better.

5 Wrong Ways to Raise a Leader by Janet Scherr
W
ise words like “Follow the Golden Rule” or “Practice what you preach” have been passed down from generation to generation. We heard these sayings from our parents, who heard them from their parents, who heard them…well you know how it goes. Ancient wisdom aside, parenting is more stressful today than ever. We asked two local professionals to weigh in on the mistakes parents sometimes make that could keep children from becoming leaders when they grow up.
1 / Allowing technology to interfere with healthy social interactions. “Oftentimes the whole family spends nights with their eyes glued to their devices, so parents are modeling a social disconnectedness to their children,” says Christopher Taylor, a licensed marriage and family therapist (MFT) in Folsom who counsels clients with parenting challenges. “Parents should be encouraged to set ‘no technology’ zones and times, because it’s important for children to develop strong interpersonal skills. Leadership involves having a high level of aptitude in relationship-building and communicating with others.”
2 / Defining a child’s interest without first exploring what the child identifies as their interest. It’s common to see parents push an activity that is not the child’s choice, such as when a father insists his son be a football player, yet the boy is interested in art. Taylor urges parents to patiently explore their children’s ideas and strengths. “The better approach for parents is to walk their kids through the steps necessary to reach success in their own area of interest,” he advises. “This can help children develop strategic planning skills at a young age and learn to take responsibility for their choices.”
3 / Failing to teach kids how to handle their feelings. Children should
4 / Empathy vs. entitlement. Another challenge that today’s parents face, according to Dr. Brunner, is developing a child’s sense of compassion while avoiding an attitude of expecting special treatment or status without earning it. Effective parenting practices such as listening, nurturing and noticing good behavior can prime the child’s developing personality to feel empathy over entitlement.
5 / Do as I say, not as I do. Case in point: Parents who text while driving with kids in the car. Remember, the kids are watching you and will ultimately copy your behavior. Teach your children by word and example that when you drive, you drive—no talking 38 stylefedh.com - June 2015
on the phone, no texting, and no checking email or social media statuses. This is a parenting rule that will help them grow into leaders by saving their lives, as well as help them to garner respect from their peers when they do what they say.

develop the ability to deal with feelings that may be uncomfortable or unpleasant, says Patricia Brunner, Ph.D., a psychologist in Roseville who specializes in child therapy (she also works with teens and adults). “While we are striving to raise kids’ self-esteem, there are missed opportunities to help them learn to cope with the bad stuff—stress, disappointment, sadness, worry and just plain old bad things that happen,” cautions Dr. Brunner. She suggests two approaches. “First, parents should model a healthy way to handle the negative events that happen in our own lives. Secondly, don’t rescue kids too quickly—being cut from a team, getting a bad grade, etc.—instead, help them identify their feelings and move through them with actions toward better coping next time.”

etty January had lived in El Dorado County for years before she’d ever heard of Clarksville. “I had no idea there was a town here long before El Dorado Hills,” she says. “And the more I learned about it, the more I realized that this whole area is rich with local history that’s crying out to be recorded and remembered.” That discovery launched January and a group of local citizens to form the Clarksville Region Historical Society in 2006. Hal Erpenbeck served as the first president with Betty as VP; collectively, they set about uncovering and preserving the history of the area. The 60-second story on Clarksville is that it was started around 1850, the height of the Gold Rush, when the population of El Dorado County was around 40,000. One of them was a man named Clarkston—he was credited with establishing “Clarkston’s Town” on what is today the southern portion of El Dorado Hills, near Town Center. It wasn’t as much 40 stylefedh.com - June 2015
a population center as it was a center of commerce for people going to and from the gold fields. It became such a popular stopping place that the U.S. Postal Service built a post office there in 1855, and renamed the town “Clarksville.” It might still be thriving today if it hadn’t been on the losing end of decisions to move the railroad—and later Highway 50—away from it. It started a slow descent into obscurity and ruin; by the 1970s, there wasn’t much left but a few foundations and walls overgrown with weeds, and the town was almost lost to history. In its heyday, however, it was one of the most popular stopping places in the world. There are stories of lines of covered wagons going through town that were literally “all day long.” “I wholeheartedly believe this area has the most unique history on earth,” January says. “When gold was discovered, people came from all over the world to find their fortunes, and most of them came through here.” Many of them arrived and stayed—
people with names like Kybruz, Tong and Joeger, among others. Many of them are buried in the Clarksville cemetery and their descendents still call the area home. It’s from these descendants, and others who’ve gleaned nuggets of the region’s history, that CRHS accomplishes its mission. On the fourth Wednesday of every month, they hold a free public meeting at the El Dorado Hills Library with guest speakers talking about the railroad years, the Pony Express Station, or the vigilante justice that led to 13 hangings in the 1850s. “Our actual history can be so much more exciting than anything you can make up in a story,” January says. “The stories of the people who came through and lived here—how they lived, fought and struggled for what they wanted—it’s really a study in the stamina and dedication of the people who brought us to who and where we are today.”

4 / BLINDS AND SHUTTERS
6 Energy-Efficient Window Treatments by Kerrie L. Kelly, ASID
B
esides contributing to the design and coziness of a room, window treatments—whether drapes and blinds or shutters and shades—help block sunlight from heating up the house on hot days and keep warm or cool air from escaping through leaky windows. Some materials do a better job than others. Here are six ecochic treatments that may work for you.
By definition, drapes are pleated panels that hang from hooks and attach to small slides on the rod. When it comes to choosing to drape, a layered look delivers the most options for light control and energy efficiency. According to energy.gov, should you choose to line a medium-toned drapery with a white plastic backing, you could save up to 33 percent on heat gain in the summer and 10 percent on heat loss in the winter.
1 / CURTAINS Curtains consist of panels of fabric that are gathered on a rod attached by tabs, ties or rings. Eco-friendly fabrics such as organic cotton and hemp are available in a growing number of colors and patterns for custom window treatments. Our current quick and organic curtain solution is to buy readymade linen drapery, as it’s grown without pesticides for flax.
2 / DRAPES These are a mainstay of window treatments.
3 / SHADES Shades are one of the most practical and hard-working window treatments; they offer easy light control, instant privacy and a clean, tailored silhouette in a wide range of colors and materials. Options include simple roller shades, insulated honeycomb shades, woven shades, wooden shades and soft fabric shades like Roman and balloon styles. Naturally woven shades made of bamboo, reeds and grasses have a handmade feel and an organic texture. For the most efficiency,
5 / VALANCES These top treatments provide the crowning glory for a window. Valances are generally shortened versions of curtains, drapes or fabric shades, 12-18 inches long. Used alone, they bring style to an otherwise plain window. Place over another treatment and they can seal the heading and add a flourish. The extra layer sitting atop the face of the window will capture any cool air that may seep in.
6 / CORNICES Because their edges are so clearly delineated, cornices add architectural interest. Like valances, they can be used alone or paired with other window treatments. When covered in batting and fabric, cornices soften the overall look of the window and absorb extra heat and chill. Wood cornices can mimic the look of deep crown molding and should coordinate with the other woodwork and trim in the room. Here again you will want to use FSC-certified woods and low-or no-VOC stains and paints to finish the wood. What will you choose for your home’s window treatments to be both beautiful and energy-efficient? Send your photos to info@ stylemg.com.

cover up
Blinds and shutters have adjustable louvers and veins that can be tilted to filter the light, leveled to reveal the view or shifted to completely block the view. Blinds can be used solo, or—for a layered look and extra insulation—under top treatments made of fabric. These types of coverings are reported to reduce heat gain by up to 45 percent; just be sure to look for shutters made of FSC-certified hardwood and finish them with low-or-no VOC stains and sealants. Also, avoid plastic shutters and blinds, as well as polyester fabrics that won’t biodegrade.

What better way to while away a sweltering summer afternoon than sipping (responsibly) on craft brew with your comrades? Whether it’s visiting a microbrewery and imbibing in a flight, or attending a local beer fest, there’s more than one way to get your brew on. El Dorado Hills-based Mraz Brewing (mrazbrewingcompany.com) already expanded into a new 3,000-foot brewing and tasting area, in addition to their Francisco Drive facility. If you like a bit of old with the new, head to downtown Sacramento and drop in Oak Park Brewing (opbrewco.com) or New Helvetia (newhelvetiabrew. com)—both are (ahem) tapping into the history of Sacramento in exciting ways. And, if you want to talk brand spanking new, Jackrabbit Brewing Company (jackrabbitbrewingcompany. com) in West Sacramento just wiped the sawdust off their expanded brewery and shiny new taproom the first week of April—you can’t get much newer than that! If that’s not buzz-worthy enough, than get your tickets to Folsom Rhythm & Brews (folsomrhythmandbrews.com). Taking place June 20 at the Palladio from noon to 6 p.m., over 40 breweries will be on tap (pun intended) serving samples (until 4:30 p.m.) as you enjoy the sound of music from six bands on two stages. Save the date for Tap Folsom (tapfolsom.com) on July 31 at Lake Natoma Inn, featuring some of the best breweries in America along with food and music.

5Submitted SWIMMING SAFETY TIPS by Steve Wallen Swim School, Inc. in El Dorado Hills, wallenswim.com 1/Enroll your kids in swim lessons. 2/Never use flotation devices or water wings when swimming or when teaching kids to swim. (Always make sure your kids wear life jackets on boats, personal watercrafts, and in open bodies of water.) 3/Make sure your kids learn to swim without goggles and are comfortable opening their eyes in the water. 4/Keep your kids under constant supervision when swimming. 5/Install pool fences and barriers.

If you can, try to hit around sunset for some gorgeous views. 3/Miner’s Ravine in Roseville winds from Sierra College Boulevard to Folsom Road through wooded greenbelts and suburban neighborhoods (approximately four miles one way; eight miles round-trip). Whether on foot or two wheels, you’ll get a whole new appreciation for Roseville when you view it from this vantage point. MINER’S RAVINE IN ROSEVILLE

New Music For a Summer Party
Music is a swimming pool, and the best way to get wet is to dive on in. Here’s a sampler from the year so far to keep you afloat.
10 CAMPING HACKS The great outdoors is a great place to show off your urban MacGuyver skills (aka hacks). Here are 10 that will impress your friends. 1/Tic-Tac Containers These handy containers make great spice holders for camping trips! And if you don’t want to eat 15 containers of Tic-Tacs, just dump them into a Ziploc bag and voila: road-trip candy. “Little Red Wagon,” Miranda Lambert “Only One,” Kanye and Paul McCartney “Hurricane,” MisterWives “Style,” Taylor Swift “Doing It,” Charlie XCX “In Love With Fire,” London Richards “Take U There,” Missy Elliot remix “Colors,” Genevieve “Bad Believer,” St. Vincent “Stitches,” Shawn Mendes
2/Doritos They can double as kindling. According to the Internet and a number of YouTube videos, you can start a fire with Doritos if you don’t have kindling. Is it great or disturbing that they’re also edible? 3/Crisco This makes a tidy everlasting candle! Poke four small holes in the center of a can of Crisco, cut four small strips off a cotton shirt for your wick, coat them in Crisco, poke them in the holes, and voila.
AWAYS T E G & G AMPIN
,C CAMPS
4/Lip Balm Waterproof your shoes with lip balm! Definitely don’t use your sister’s favorite Kiehl’s lip balm and obviously use a pair of shoes you won’t want to wear again. They won’t replace a good pair of rain boots, but they will keep your feet dry in a pinch. 5/Gallon Water Container #1 Freeze the full containers and put them in your cooler: They’ll help keep your food cold, and you can drink the water once they thaw.
All other photos courtesy of their respective companies.
6/Gallon Water Container #2 Point a flashlight directly at a full (thawed) container of water for a terrific mega-lantern. 7/Gallon Water Container #3 Cut the empty container in half and use the handled end as a handy scoop. (Perfect for putting sand on the campfire when you’re leaving.) 8/Belt Loop it around a tree, and attach a couple of S-hooks (or you can fashion a couple out of wire or coat hangers); use this rig for hanging pots and pans. ABC ZOO CAMP
Summer Camps for All
There’s plenty of summer camp fun in Folsom this summer! Talk to the animals during one of the Folsom Zoo Sanctuary camps—choose from the ABC Zoo Camp (ages 4-7) or two Zookeeper Camps (one for ages 8-11 and the other for ages 1215). Your budding scientists will react (get it?) to camps like Crazy Crime Lab and Robotics; there’s also Lego Camp, art camps, and a whole range of sports camps
9/Instant Coffee Avert your eyes, coffee purists. Instant coffee will save you some time in the morning, and if you grab some of the small pre-packaged tubes (like Starbucks’ VIAs) they won’t take up any room at all…and you’ll still get your morning buzz. 10/Pantyhose Wear them under your pants to help prevent hypothermia, or as a barrier for ticks.

Everyone needs to hug a redwood tree at least once in their life.
JUNIOR GOLF CAMP
(from flag football to basketball). Big or small, active or reserved, there’s a camp for every kid this summer (folsom.ca.us/ depts/parks_n_recreation/guide). In El Dorado Hills, your little ones (ages 3-6) will be well taken care of at the Lil Campers Day Camp at Froggie Frontier Preschool beginning June 1; creatively
Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 8:30-10:30 p.m.). Bring the kids for an unforgettable evening with the night sky (communityobservatory.com)! 2/Explore beautiful underground caverns at the Black Chasm Cavern in Volcano, a national natural landmark (caverntours. com/blackrt.htm). 3/Visit one of the best-maintained gold mines in the area and check out the working stamp mill at the Kentucky Mine Museum, near Sierra City off Highway 49.

4/ Celebrate the history and continuing role railroads play today in moving passengers and freight in the Placer MUIR WOODS NATIONAL MONUMENT
Bring a can of crescent roll dough, wrap the dough around a stick and put it over the campfire or better still, wrap that dough around a hot dog on a stick for a “crescent dog.” Take a can of cinnamon roll dough, put rolls in hollowed out oranges, cook over the coals and then put them right in your face. Grab a can of biscuit dough, cut a hole in the middle of the biscuit, dust with cinnamon and powdered sugar and fry in a skillet; voila, campfire donuts! If you’re above “cans of dough” or you don’t understand what a “can of dough” even is, try fancy glamping fondue: grab a wheel of your favorite brie or camembert, poke holes in it, pour brandy over the top, wrap in foil and stick in the coals until you have drunken melty cheese. Instead of a marshmallow, you can try roasting Starburst on a stick (warning: molten!); or just stick with marshmallows. Let’s not reinvent the wheel here, people. However, “campfire cones” are the best thing ever: Fill a sugar cone with chocolate pieces, marshmallows, whatever you want, wrap in foil and cook until deliciously melty and then top with whipped cream. I guess you could put Starburst in there, too? Not so much a recipe as a neat breakfast party trick, try campfire bacon, aka artfully weaving bacon onto toasting forks and frying over the campfire. The Venn diagrams of “Camping Food and College Dorm Food” intersect at omelet in a bag: Dump all of your omelet ingredients into a Ziploc bag, put it in a pot of simmering water, and then question your life choices. Or ditch the bag omelet and eat a campfire apple filled with Nutella with a big old smile on your face. Yes, it’s a thing…a beautiful, beautiful thing.

O
ne of these warm evenings you should cruise over to The Kabob House and grab a seat on the enclosed patio. Here’s what awaits you: the sun softly filtered by dense foliage of grape leaves overhead, and as day fades, the gentle glow of lights strung throughout the vines. Greek folk music floats in the background while a friendly, poised server brings a glass of water (or
Take gastronomic inspiration from the vines overhead and order dolomathes, grape leaves stuffed with seasoned ground lamb and rice. wine). The world outside the walls slowly drifts away as you sip some Savatiano (“My Big Fat Greek Wine”) or Retsina, a uniquely Greek white wine that’s traditionally stored in containers sealed with pine resin. Take gastronomic inspiration from the vines overhead and order dolomathes, grape leaves stuffed with seasoned ground lamb and rice. This dish (and nearly every other one) is accompanied by tzatziki, a yogurt-based sauce dotted with dill and cucumber. As an entrée, you could try the garlic chicken or the lamb souvlaki. The chicken is grilled over hot coals and served on a bed of rice with pita triangles and garlic mayo, making for a toothsome and filling meal; the souvlaki consists of marinated lamb skewered with just-seared bell peppers and onions, plated over rice with pita and tzatziki. You can’t go wrong with either offering. Next time I think I’ll order the moussaka or pastitso—two types of casserole that sound like something a Greek grandma would make from scratch on a Sunday afternoon. As you finish off the last of your pita and tzatziki (and trust me, it’s so good you will finish it!), don’t forget to save a tiny corner of your stomach for dessert. I recommend the baklava—which is a square of flaky and buttery filo pastry on top of 54 stylefedh.com - June 2015

dinner date Food and Wine for the Season over medium-high heat. Grill the bell pepper until charred on all sides. Place in a small paper bag and set it aside to rest. Take the squash and zucchini from the marinade and place them on the grill cut-side down. Reserve the marinade. Add the slices of onion to the grill. Cook everything for 3-4 minutes, until it is golden brown on the bottom. Flip over the squash, zucchini, and onion and cook them for another 3-4 minutes, until they are golden brown on the bottom and just tender. Remove everything to a cutting board. As soon as it’s cool enough to handle, cut the squash and zucchini into bite-size pieces. Chop the onion. Peel the charred skin from the bell pepper. Core, seed, and cut it into 1-by-1/4-inch strips. In a large bowl, combine the squash, zucchini, onion, bell pepper, garlic, tarragon, 1 teaspoon of salt, pepper, and the reserved marinade. Toss it all well to mix. Taste for salt and add more if necessary. Transfer the mixture to a shallow serving bowl and top it with the Parmesan before serving. Serves 6.

Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you? My business evolved through my love of the barre workout. It found me due to injuries— which caused me to change my workout routine—and the need to find an exercise method that was gentle on my body. Why is your staff the best in the business? Each member of my staff is so passionate about the fitness industry, and they’ve all been meticulously trained in the fundamentals of the barre workout. Our instructors are friendly, personable, and love what they do...and it shows! What life accomplishments are you most proud of? I’m most proud of putting myself through college and graduate school, and earning a master’s degree in education. I’m also proud of my 16-year marriage and my two wonderful daughters. Finally, I’m proud to have built a successful small business in such a great community. What’s your favorite place to eat out locally? Aji Japanese Bistro—their Tsukiji Maki Roll is the best. Where do you and your family go locally to have fun? We’re definitely summer people, so you can usually find us on Folsom Lake tubing or wakeboarding. We love the sun! If you could be in any other profession, what would it be? I would probably go back into teaching. I love working with children and find teaching to be such a rewarding profession. What is your opinion of Style Magazine? Style Magazine is a great resource for finding out what’s going on in our local community. I love it, and never miss a publication! And finally, customer service is…? Listening to your clientele, never becoming complacent with the service you’re providing, and constantly striving to create a fun and friendly environment where people feel comfortable and welcome.

Answers by Mark Distefano Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you? We have been building custom cars and bikes for the last 10 years under the name Daddy-O Customz, but moving to the Folsom area provided us with the opportunity to open a retail location using the Sutter Street Cruisers name. Why is your staff the best in the business? Our staff is the best because we know bikes. Old to new, custom to cruiser, we have built (or ridden) them all! We strive to get to know our clients and personalize the build to their personal specifications, integrating a bit of their personality into each build we complete. Where do you go when the going gets tough? I ride my bike! Whether it’s good times or bad, and whether I’m stressed or want to celebrate something that recently happened, there’s no greater place to be than Kim and Mark Distefano with daughter Kaya “behind bars” enjoying the outdoors and getting a little exercise along the way. What’s your biggest job perk? SUTTER STREET Getting to be creative, using the “other side of the brain” and drawing out the characteristics CRUISERS the customer wishes to see come to life. There’s no better feeling than seeing them ride 813-C Sutter Street away for the first time on their newly built bicycle! Folsom What is your opinion of Style Magazine? 916-355-9968 We believe Style Magazine to be a staple in the community, and evaluated utilizing it for sutterstreetcruisers.com marketing services prior to being included in this segment. We have actively used it since relocating to the area last July and find it a positive resource for the local community. And finally, customer service is…? It’s of utmost importance. Even if we can’t help you on your next build, we will gladly research and recommend others who may be able to assist. Cruise in, pick our brain, and let us know how we can help! We love all things bicycle and encourage you to stop in and see what we have to offer.
