Pentimento will close Sept. 30 despite protests organized by customers BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM On Sept. 14, Pentimento owner Dennis Young was notified that the restaurant’s lease would not be extended, and they would have to vacate the premises as of Sept. 30, according to Pentimento’s manager Lisa Cusumano. “We walk away after 27 years with nothing,” she said, adding now they will concentrate on continuing to serve the community until the doors close and finding jobs for their employees. According to Gloria Rocchio, president of Eagle Realty Holdings which leases the space, Young and Cusumano were asked to stay on until an appropriate tenant could be found, but they declined. A full interview with Rocchio and some members of the board will be available on TBR News Media’s website and social media Sept. 17 and in next week’s paper. Cusumano said they informed the staff the morning of Sept. 15, before the public was notified, so the closure notice could be announced direct from her and Young. “We feel like we’re letting the community down by leaving,” she said, adding how the business has contributed to Ronald McDonald

House, sponsored Little League and more. She said that employees as well as their small vendors depend on the business. Just before the restaurant was notified, Sept. 10 and 12 found a few dozen people holding protests asking Eagle Realty Holdings to extend Pentimento’s lease in Stony Brook Village Center. Two other rallies were held during the last few weeks. On July 29, Pentimento Restaurant posted to their Facebook page that they were unable to extend the term of their lease. However, with the support of the community, which was overwhelming, Cusumano said, they found some hope. Young and Cusumano said in an Aug. 5 The Village Times Herald article that they forgot to inform the landlord that they wanted to renew their lease last year because they were busy trying to keep their business afloat during the COVID-19 pandemic. Young, who hopes to retire in the near future, had found a party who was interested in buying the business and recently asked if he could extend the lease. Rocchio said in a statement in August that in addition to not receiving notice about Young’s intention to renew the lease, the tenant failed “to comply with the requirement to maintain the

septic system” which is described in the lease. Young said he has kept up with all maintenance and has also renovated the business through the 27 years he has operated Pentimento. In 2009, he also bought a new cesspool. In August, Rocchio said Young’s suggested buyer and others were being interviewed to take over the spot. As for recent protests, the rally on Sept. 10

was held in front of the restaurant, according to participant Barbara Beltrami from Setauket, and the Sept. 12 protest took place in front of Rocchio’s home. “It was a very passionate, loud protest,” Beltrami said. In addition to the rallies, an online petition was started to save the restaurant on Change.org. More than 3,735 people have signed it as of Sept. 15.

SBU Class of 2020 gets their chance to shine On Sept. 10, Stony Brook University celebrated the graduating class of 2020, with an in-person commencement ceremony at Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium. When the class graduated last year, events were held virtually due to attendance restrictions at events during the COVID-19 pandemic.

More than 1,300 graduates took part in the celebration, including former TBR News Media intern Karina Gerry, lower right. Participants included graduates who received their degrees in December 2019, May 2020 and December 2020. — Lower right photo from Kara Hahn; all others from Stony Brook University

SBU president looks forward to future with community BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Stony Brook University’s new president wants to work with the community. At its Sept. 15 breakfast, the Three Village Chamber of Commerce welcomed SBU President Maurie McInnis. While the members had participated in a Zoom meeting with her last year, this was the first time they had the opportunity to meet her in person. The university president took over the position July 1, 2020, after the departure of Dr. Samuel L. Stanley Jr. McInnis said it was nice to be able to meet everyone during the breakfast instead of just seeing faces on a screen. “I’m really happy to get a chance to meet with all of you,” she said. “The relationship between the university and its community is so vital, really, to the success of both in an ideal world. We have this sort of mutually reinforcing and synergistic positive relationship, and I’ve heard how much work you all have done to help us get to that place.” After reviewing the history of SBU, the

university president provided the attendees with some updates. McInnis said the university and hospital have become the largest single site of employment on Long Island. There are 15,000 employees at Stony Brook which serves 26,000 students. “That means we’re kind of a little city of 40,000 people right here in your backyard,” she said. “And, that means extraordinary opportunities for our community to be a really strong place working closely together.” McInnis added the majority of students, 12,000, come from Long Island as well as nearly 7,000 from the five boroughs and 2,500 from other parts of New York state. SBU gives out 40% of degrees to STEM students and another 20% who majored in health studies. “We were founded in many ways on the rise and excitement of science in the 1960s, and that has long been part of what this campus does,” she said. McInnis said one of the challenges SBU and other universities face is having enough funds to educate students. Institutions have

two primary sources, she said, tuition and — if it’s a public university — state support. For SBU, she said state support has been flat for the last decade and is significantly

lower from what New York provided before the 2008 recession. “It went down, and then it’s been flat ever since,” she said. “And for the most part, our tuition has been flat in that decade as well. So, we continue to face funding challenges and continue to try to work with our partners in Albany to help them understand, for us to be great, we’re going to need additional support.” During the presentation, McInnis announced that Dr. Harold Paz of Ohio State University has been named as the new executive vice president for Health Sciences and will start Oct. 4. She described him as “one of America’s leading health care experts.” “He will be a transformational leader for the next chapter of Stony Brook Medicine,” she said. During the pandemic, McInnis said, “Stony Brook really became the epicenter for COVID care in Suffolk County.” The university has also worked to help get Long Islanders vaccinated. “We have been all over Long Island trying to make sure that all communities have access SBU PRESIDENT CONTINUED ON A8

Three Village kids return to the classrooms Waiting patiently for buses in the rain — some on doorsteps hoping not to get wet — Three Village school district students from pre-k to high school seniors returned to school Sept. 9. Last year due to COVID-19, the Three Village schools opened with full-time, inperson instruction with a remote option. This

school year all students are required to attend school in the classroom. — Photos above, below and right center from the Three Village Central School District; upper center from Emily Barnes; upper right Tracy Harris;and below center and right from Christine Bausch

to vaccinations,” she said. “Not only did we run for this state one of the mass vaccination sites, which we did on our R&D campus — and in those early days when we still had a lot of people wanting to get vaccinations, we were vaccinating 3,000 people a day at the R&D Park — we’ve given over 350,000 vaccinations all over Long Island.” She added Stony Brook Medicine also provided pop-up vaccination sites all over the Island to not only help people get vaccinated but to educate them on the importance of vaccines. She said one comment people would bring up is that the COVID-19 vaccine was created quickly. “The technology for this vaccine had been in research and development at America’s

leading research universities for over a decade,” she said. McInnis said thousands of COVID-19 patients were treated at the hospital, and doctors continue to see people with the virus. “Unfortunately, it continues to be a pandemic of the unvaccinated,” she said. McInnis thanked community members who in the last year donated personal protection equipment, meals, iPads and more. She said on the SBU campus there were no major outbreaks last academic year, partially because fewer students were on campus and due to precautions taken by the school. She added the fall semester is pretty much back to normal but everyone is wearing masks inside. As of Sept. 10, 99% of campus residents and 88% of in-person commuters have been fully vaccinated. The percentage of university employees vaccinated is 70%, while 77% of medical employees have

received the full dose. A few attendees asked McInnis questions at the end of the presentation. Lee Krauer, chair of Friends of Stony Brook Road and a member of Stony Brook Concerned Homeowners, thanked McInnis for her presentation. “I think that the university really is a wonderful place and is a tremendous asset to all of Suffolk County,” Krauer said. She added that residents in her area off Stony Brook Road have had problems with traffic due to the university. In the past, the community groups have also cited issues with students living in houses and not taking care of them properly. She said residents between Route 347 and 25A haven’t felt heard by past presidents and asked McInnis if she would be open to meet with members of the committees. “People who live where I live can’t get

out of our blocks,” Krauer said. McInnis told Krauer who to contact to follow up so they could talk about the possibilities. Earlier in her presentation, McInnis touched on college housing. There are more than 10,500 beds on campus, which is more than other SBU campuses, according to the SBU president. Recently, after Hurricane Ida, two dormitories had 7 feet of water in the basements and 400 students were relocated to other beds on campuses, many in the dining halls. “I know that we will continue to work with you all to work with our community to make sure that for our students living on campus, that they are good neighbors,” McInnis said, “And, we will continue our partnership with the town and 6th Precinct and community leaders always to address any behavior or landlord issues that come our way.”

Five gentlemen and a lady — The Culper Spy Ring BY BEVERLY C. TYLER DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM “... by the assistance of a 355 [lady] of my acquaintance, shall be able to outwit them all.” (Abraham Woodhull to BenjaminTallmadge 15 August 1779 — The Washington Papers, Library of Congress) BENJAMIN TALLMADGE, organizer and leader of the Revolutionary War Setauket spies, was born in Setauket in 1754. He was the son of the minister of the Setauket Presbyterian Church. The home where he was born is still standing in Setauket at the end of Runs Road. Tallmadge grew up in Setauket and attended school here with his close friend Abraham Woodhull. When the Revolution began in 1775, Tallmadge enlisted in the Continental Army and by February 1777, he had been promoted to the rank of major. In the summer of 1778, General Washington appointed him head of his secret service and tasked Tallmadge with establishing an espionage network against the British in New York City. To conduct this vital undercover operation on Long Island, Tallmadge chose his boyhood friend Abraham Woodhull. Tallmadge and Woodhull chose other friends and neighbors from Setauket to assist them; men and women who could be trusted and who would prove to be so discreet in all their contacts that many of their identities would never be discovered. ABRAHAM WOODHULL was a descendant of Richard Woodhull, an early Brookhaven Town leader and magistrate. He was born in 1750 on his family’s farm in Setauket, and he was a farmer by occupation. From the beginning of the Setauket Spies in 1778, Woodhull was in charge of dayto-day operations. His code name was Samuel Culper, and the spy operation came to be known as the Culper Ring. Woodhull was referred to as Samuel Culper Senior after he recruited Robert Townsend, who was given the code name Samuel Culper Junior. Not only did Woodhull direct field activities, but he also risked his life countless times by personally collecting information in New York and on Long Island. Woodhull was responsible for evaluating the reports received from all sources, determining what was to go forward to Washington’s headquarters and seeing that the dispatches were carried across the Sound by Caleb Brewster. Woodhull’s health was poor, and he lived in constant fear of discovery. Despite his fears, Woodhull carried on his duties as a Patriot spy and in a 10 April 1779 letter to Tallmadge wrote, “… and rest assured that I endevour to collect and convey the most accurate and explicit intelligence that I possibly can. And hope it may be of some service toward alleviating the misery of our distressed Country, nothing but that could have induced me to undertake it. . .” (The Washington Papers, Library of Congress) CALEB BREWSTER was perhaps the most bold and daring of the spies. After the August

1776 Battle of Long Island in Brooklyn, Brewster joined the Continental Army with the rank of a lieutenant of artillery. In spite of his service designation, one of Brewster’s tasks throughout the war was to command a fleet of fast-sailing whaleboats, operating from the Connecticut shore against British and Loyalist shipping on Long Island Sound (known as the “Devil’s Belt”). Each whaleboat was about 30 feet in length, equipped with sails and oars, and with 12-15 fully armed men. This, together with his knowledge of the Long Island shoreline, his work as a mate on sailing ships, and his boyhood association with Benjamin Tallmadge, made him an ideal choice to carry intelligence back and forth across the Sound. ANNA SMITH STRONG, great granddaughter of Setauket’s Lord of the Manor William “Tangier” Smith, devised a wash line signal system, according to Morton Pennypacker in his book “George Washington’s Spies on Long Island and in New York,” published 1939, to identify for Abraham Woodhull the whereabouts of Caleb Brewster’s whaleboats, so Woodhull could find him and pass along messages for General Washington. As detailed by Pennypacker and embellished by Strong family historian Kate Strong, to avoid detection by the British it was necessary for Brewster to hide his boat in six different places, each identified by a number. Nancy Strong, as she was known by friends and family, hung her laundry from the line in a code formation to direct Woodhull to Brewster’s location. A black petticoat was the signal that Brewster was nearby, and the number of handkerchiefs scattered among the other garments showed the meeting place. Using the most ordinary of personal items and improvising on the most ordinary of personal tasks, she made an extraordinary contribution to the Patriot cause. Kate Strong’s True Tales indicate her information was corroborated by scraps of paper, deeds and letters in her possession, as well as documents she saw or was told about by Pennypacker (True Tales, “In Defense of Nancy’s Clothesline,” 1969). CAPTAIN AUSTIN ROE, as the courier later known as Long Island’s Paul Revere, was the member of the Setauket Spies most visible to the British and Tories in Brookhaven. Roe ran a tavern in East Setauket where food and drink were served and where travelers could stay overnight on their way to or from the east end of Long Island. The original location of the tavern (it was moved in 1936) was along what is now Route 25A, just west of Bayview Avenue. The site is marked by a state road sign which details a few of the most important facts about Austin Roe and the tavern. Austin Roe used his position as a tavern owner to justify his 110-mile round trips. While in New York, Roe gathered supplies he needed for the tavern, and expensive materials and goods for Nancy Strong. These trips provided the cover he needed to obtain spy messages. Roe made

Abraham Woodhull and Caleb Brewster meet to convey intelligence for General Washington. (Locke mural Setauket Elementary School)

numerous trips to Manhattan, sometimes as often as once a week. The roads were heavily traveled by British and Loyalist troops and by highwaymen (thieves and robbers). Roe would receive intelligence directly from Robert Townsend, the messages written in code or invisible ink. He would ride back to Setauket and pass the information to Abraham Woodhull. ROBERT TOWNSEND (code name Samuel Culper, Jr.) coordinated the efforts of the spy network in New York. We will probably never know all the spies who contributed information on British movements, but we do know that Townsend, a resident of Oyster Bay before and after the Revolutionary War, was the principal contact in New York for most of the period between June 1779 and November 1783. The valuable intelligence transmitted by the spies led to the capture of Major Andre, who was

hanged as a spy on orders of General Washington, and the discovery of Benedict Arnold’s plot to turn over West Point to the British. The Culper Spy Ring also supplied Washington with information that enabled him to prevent the British from attacking the French army and navy after they arrived in Newport, Rhode Island, in July 1780 to support General Washington. The most important contribution of the Culper Spy Ring was to provide General Washington with accurate and detailed intelligence. In many instances, Washington was able to check the veracity of information received from other sources by comparing it with intelligence received from the Culper Spy Ring. Beverly C. Tyler is Three Village Historical Society historian and author of books available from the society at 93 North Country Road, Setauket. For more information, call 631-7513730 or visit www.tvhs.org.

Ward Melville 3 Smithtown East 2

Ward Melville boys volleyball win season opener after five sets BY BILL LANDON DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM On Sept. 9, Smithtown East led 20-11 in the first set and let Ward Melville right back in it when the Patriots rallied to win 25-21. The Bulls answered in the second set squeezing out a two-point win to tie the match at one all. The Patriots countered in the third set edging the Bulls by four, but Smithtown East dominated the fourth set winning by 10 to force a game five. The Patriots picked their spots and took the deciding final set 15-11 to win the match 3-2 on the road. Jaron Popp, a junior, led the Patriots with 22 kills, and senior Timmy Chu notched 51 assists followed by Dylan Fagan who killed 14 and had 18 digs in the contest. Both teams returned to the court Sept. 14 where the Patriots hosted West Hampton where they lost, 3-2. The Bulls hit the road to take on Comsewogue, and Smithtown won, 3-0.

Setauket fire department holds annual 9/11 ceremony Community members, local legislators and Scouts joined Setauket firefighters to honor those lost on September 11 with a candlelight vigil on the night of the 20th anniversary of the tragic event. The vigil took place at the district’s 9/11 Memorial Park, adjacent to the firehouse located at 394 Nicolls Road in Stony Brook. Attendees gathered in the park that includes a pond and waterfall. Three pieces of steel from the World Trade Center in the park are featured and were obtained by Setauket Fire Department worker James Hubbard, who worked at the cleanup site. The 9/11 Memorial Park also includes two trees planted in 2016 that were seeded from the 9/11 survivor tree located at the National

September 11 Memorial and Museum at the World Trade Center and a stone monument inscribed with the names of those lost on 9/11. Pictured clockwise from above, three wreaths placed at the memorial during the ceremony; Setauket FD member Corey Gallagher and his son; the Stony Brook Fire Department assisted Setauket FD in raising the flag in front of the Nicolls Road station for the 9/11 Ceremony; fire department members entering the 9/11 memorial site; members wore masks due to the closeness during the ceremony; and Asst.

Obituary

Make a Statement...

Barbara Graner

A loving wife/mother/grandmother, Barbara Graner passed away peacefully in her sleep on the morning of Sept. 1. She had been in declining health over the past few months. Born in Brooklyn on Oct. 16, 1939, to Katharine and Leo Schrafel, Barbara grew up in Floral Park and graduated from Sewanhaka High School where she participated on the twirling team, yearbook committee and numerous other clubs. After graduation, she worked several jobs as an executive secretary, including at General Electric and Sperry Corporation on Long Island. She met Bill Graner in 1961 at a cousin’s wedding, and they were married on Aug. 31, 1963. A few years later, they settled in East Setauket where they lived for more than 45 years. Barbara was an avid bowler, baker, member of the Three Village Homemakers Club, had many friends and was involved in her children’s school activities. They were also former members of both the Setauket Presbyterian and Setauket Methodist churches. In 2011, to escape the cold and snow, they moved to Sun City in Bluffton, South Carolina, where Barbara was also involved in many clubs including In-Stitches, Sew What, Dine-Around, Long Island Group and Church of the Palms. Always well-dressed with a pretty smile, Barbara was known to be friendly, well-meaning and kind. She enjoyed crochet and knitting,

music, playing the piano, going to movies and theater, exercising, reading, dining out, going to church, watching “Blue Bloods” on TV (her favorite), playing board games, and spending time with family/friends. Barbara is survived by her husband Bill of 58 years, their daughters Patty and Sue (Tom) Raedeke, grandsons Tyler and Sean Raedeke, sister Kay (Paul) Kiefer, numerous cousins, and many longtime friends who she kept in touch with regularly.

Holly Signoretti picks out a book at the Book Revue in Huntington village. Photo by Kimberly Brown

Ode to Book Revue

People are continuously told that change is inevitable but sometimes those changes can hit a human right in the heart, especially if it involves a goodbye. Many residents along the North Shore of Suffolk County and surrounding areas were saddened to hear of the closing of Book Revue in Huntington Sept. 10. After more than 40 years of being the go-to place for book lovers, like many other businesses, the owner struggled during the COVID-19 pandemic. The store had to shut down for three months during the pandemic, and once the owner reopened the doors, the Book Revue struggled to get back on its feet. Despite talking with the building landlord to come to a compromise, in the end the back rent was impossible to pay back, and it was initially announced last month that the store would close Sept. 30. With inventory starting to thin out, the store was closed Sept. 9 for employees to organize the shelves, and on Sept. 10 people were invited to come in and take books for free. By the afternoon, the store was cleaned out and Book Revue doors were closed for business permanently. Its owner Richard Klein posted on Facebook that while the store was now closed to the public, he would be in touch soon. Customers hope so. Not only was Book Revue the place to go to pick up some literature, but it was also a social center. Many residents remember going to the store as a child or a parent to enjoy Toddler Time with stories, live music and dancing. There were groups to discuss favorite reads, and celebrity book signings with authors such as Alan Alda, Hillary Clinton, Whoopi Goldberg, Clinton Kelly and more. The store also offered a diverse selection of books with extensive arts and music sections as well as a section dedicated to local subjects written by Long Island authors. More than a place to shop or socialize, the Book Revue also drew people to Huntington village. When people come to shop at an iconic store, they usually will stay a while in the area and stop by other shops or get a bite to eat. The closing of such a business could lead to a domino effect in the village. Our communities need more independent book stores like this former Huntington staple, ones that flourish and elevate the quality of life in a village. It’s a shame that the landlord and Klein couldn’t come to an agreement. However, the community will be forever grateful to Richard and his brother Bob, who retired from the business earlier last year, for their service to the community and providing years of happiness to Long Islanders. Here’s hoping that another vibrant business that hosts events will come into the building to keep one of our bustling villages alive with the excitement Book Revue once did.

Letters to the Editor Families teaching virtues via real life lessons

The family unit has very successfully, for many generations, taken the lead teaching their children the importance of living a virtuous life. Moms, dads, grandparents, aunts and uncles have taught the importance of eliminating unfair policies and biased practices based on race, gender, religion, ability or sexuality. Those critical “golden rule” lessons have come courtesy of real-life examples, in both words and deeds, from our family elders. They talked the talk and walked the walk. The results over the last 60 years have been remarkable. We’ve gone from a segregated Washington, D.C., in the 1950s, to Martin Luther King Jr.’s 1963 “I Have a Dream” speech, to historic civil rights legislation. Some 50 years after our capital city was stained by segregation, former President Barack Obama [D] was serving the first of two terms in the White House. It’s hard to imagine that kind of dramatic, positive change could have taken place without many millions of families, over multiple generations, actively promoting a sense of “do unto others as you would have them do unto you” fairness. We’ve had some of the same parental concerns regarding Three Village Central School District students essentially being unprepared to enter a multiracial world. So, I’d like to offer some suggestions that have proven very successful and, more importantly, can make material differences in the lives of minority kids. Have students of all ages sort through books that might be enjoyable reading for minority youngsters in other districts. Collect and donate them. Ask for volunteers to do tutoring. Groups focusing on reading and writing could be formed. The benchmark I used when teaching at risk, individualized education programs (IEP) kids was they

reach a functional literacy level. That basically allowed them to read interesting articles, which encouraged them to read more. Students sharp in math and science could work with out-of-district children lagging in those areas. Whether it’s reading, writing or STEM subjects I would stress not to treat pupils as victims. Barring developmental or neurological issues, hold high expectations for all. Moms and dads can set the ultimate example by registering to become foster parents. Suffolk County is starving for good homes to place boys and girls of all ages. The process, with paperwork, screening and home visits, may take up to eight months, but can be extremely rewarding. In all likelihood you’d not only be giving that child an education upgrade but introducing your kin to a whole new universe. If you’re truly looking to prepare TVSCD children for a different kind of world after graduation, give them a preview by introducing them to real life experiences in that world. They’ll also be improving the lives of those they’ve touched. It’s a win-win situation. Jim Soviero East Setauket

Happy 111th anniversary to the East River Tunnels

On Sept. 8, 1910, there was a celebration for the first day of direct Long Island Rail Road service to Penn Station. This was a great day for transportation history. Prior to this, LIRR riders had to transfer to ferries from Long Island City to access Manhattan. The date represents the 111th anniversary of direct LIRR service from Queens, Nassau or Suffolk County to Manhattan. Fast forward to 2021. Ongoing cancellation and combining of trains due to signal and other problems in the East River Tunnels, along with other locations on all nine branches of the LIRR system

will continue for years to come. Amtrak will not initiate decades overdue major repairs of the East River Tunnels until 2025 — two years after East Side Access to Grand Central Terminal begins. They will be 117 years old. This work on all four tunnels, including two that suffered significant damages from Hurricane Sandy in 2012, may not be completed until 2029. Amtrak has previously gone on record that these two tunnels will require a minimum of one year each for completion. It will require one of two tunnels damaged by Sandy being out of service at a time for one year to support this work. The other two tunnels will need similar work. With only three of four tunnels available, there will be a reduction in Penn Station access and capacity. To preserve existing service, many LIRR rush hour trains will be canceled or combined. Until this work is over, it will be impossible to guarantee safe and reliable on time service to Penn Station for LIRR commuters. Reduced East River Tunnels capacity may also make it very difficult to add new services previously promised by former Gov. Andrew Cuomo [D]. This includes East Bronx Metro-North New Haven line access to Penn Station, increased Port Washington branch service to support the LaGuardia AirTrain via MetsWillets Point Station, new Elmont Station service to support the Islanders Belmont Park arena and 50% overall increase in reverse peak service after opening of East Side Access to Grand Central Terminal. Both Amtrak and NJ Transit need access to the Queens Sunnyside Yard via the East River Tunnels to support their own respective planned service increases. Going from four to three available tunnels results in a significant capacity reduction. This translates to no increase in existing or new services until work on all four East River Tunnels is completed by 2029. Larry Penner Great Neck

Opinion On second thought, I will take that senior discount

oe, the gentleman at the supermarket register, asked me the routine questions. “Did you find everything okay?” “Do you have a rewards number?” I nodded and typed in my cell phone number. At the end of the order, I carefully watched the total, waiting for the moment he asked me whether I wanted to donate a dollar or round up my total. Instead, it looked D. None like the cost declined, even after applying all of the above the discounts. In order BY DANIEL DUNAIEF to be sure, I had to remove my glasses, which allow me to see at a distance, but not to read. Yes, the total decreased by 5%. Just as I was about to thank him, I went slack jawed

behind my mask. Staring closely at the total in the register, I realized he had given me the senior discount. I pondered what to do. I could tell him I’m not a senior. Then again, maybe anyone over 35 was a senior. Okay, fine, 40. Alright, 50. Anyway, I thanked him for ringing me up, told him to stay safe and headed to the car, where I promptly checked the age for a senior discount at my supermarket. Yup, just as I suspected. He gave me the discount well before I was eligible. As I loaded the groceries in the car, I wondered whether this was a freakout midlife crisis moment. Maybe this was the universe’s way, through Joe, of reminding me that I’m not a kid anymore. Then again, I thought, steadying myself behind the wheel, maybe Joe had just typed that senior discount button by mistake. Maybe he felt generous or, perhaps, he was giving everyone a senior discount, just to stick it to his bosses. I have an image of myself that doesn’t

align with what other people see, or even what I notice in the mirror. Somewhere along the lines, my brain imagined that the younger, fresher, more energetic version of me continued to type on my computer, yell at the TV when the Yankees lost, and maneuver through my life. My body, and the unwelcome hair that seems to wave from my ears, has offered reminders about the passage of time. Recently, my son, who is still waiting for his freshman year to start in earnest after New Orleans recovers from Hurricane Ida, asked me if I wanted to have a catch. Excited for some father-son bonding that doesn’t involve electronics, I readily agreed. Besides, it’s been a few years since he asked. I am no longer his coach and he has numerous athletic friends and former teammates who can launch balls across a field. The first few throws felt comfortable, as my fingers reached for the familiar seams and tossed the ball back at his chest. “Okay, move back,” he instructed.

A few throws later, he asked me to move back again. “Wait, what?” my arm begged, to a brain that tried to hit the mute button on muscles, tendons, bones and rotator cuffs begging me to stop engaging in such unaccustomed activity. Pretty soon, he was throwing lasers from the next county and I was trying to figure out if I could strap the ball to a nearby bird to return it to him. Instead, I ran 20 steps, rotated my hips and snapped my shoulders in an effort to minimize the strain on my arm. “Good idea,” he yelled. “You should soft toss it back to me.” Soft toss? That was one of my hardest throws! Two days later, we repeated the same routine. The second time, my arm instantly hurt. I might imagine that I’m 25 or even 35, just as I might imagine I can fly. I can enjoy some consolation: the senior discount saved me enough money to buy an ice pack for my throbbing shoulder.

Some advice on how to live a saucy life

ere are some ways to spice up our lives. I’ve done this all my adult cooking life, and I recommend the concept. I have added store-bought sauces to otherwise bland foods, like eggs, chicken and some fish. Please read on as I explain. How did I happen upon this technique, you might wonder? It was a solution born of desperation over 50 years ago. I was to be married in two weeks, and my roommate at the time asked me what I was going to cook for my new husband the first night. Cook? I only knew how to boil water. It hadn’t occurred to me, although tradition Between at the time had it, that you and me I was to be the cook in BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF this pairing. When I panicked, she calmed me down by asking what my fiancé’s

favorite meal was. “Breaded veal cutlet,” I remembered, and for the next 10 days, at dinner, she tutored me on the fine art of making that, along with a salad of greens with store-bought dressing, and spaghetti with some bottled red sauce. I then sailed into marriage prepared and duly impressed my groom with my culinary skills. Soon enough, we came to the menu for the second night. Again panic. I had to sit down and figure this one out. I was working and didn’t have time to digest the thick book, “Joy of Cooking,” that some kind soul had given us as a wedding present — at least not yet. Prepared foods for takeout were not invented. There were Swanson frozen dinners, but that suggested I was really inadequate. What to do? I thought about how I had made that first meal. I used bottled dressing to flavor the salad and also bottled sauce for the spaghetti. I wondered what other sauces might be available on the supermarket shelves. That’s when I found duck sauce. Reading the label, I saw their suggested uses; one was with chicken. Inspired, I rushed to buy a whole chicken that I brought

back to our new apartment, poured all the duck sauce over it, and popped it into the oven at 375 degrees as instructed by the amused man behind the supermarket meat counter. I kept checking it, and when it looked like it was done, I served it, along with more salad. “Wow!” my new husband exclaimed. “I didn’t know you could cook!” I was launched. I will confess to having learned a few more things about cooking since then, including how to read a recipe, but my affection for bottled sauces continues to this day. To further my repertoire, I have gleaned the following information from a consumer publication called, “Bottom Line,” that has proven its value sufficiently to earn my ongoing subscription dollars. The article, written by Jay Weinstein, a member of the Institute of Culinary Education, is headlined, “Make Mundane Meals Instantly Exotic, with these international bottled sauces,” offers nine suggestions, and pretty much all of them appeal to me. First, there are some Asian possibilities: banana sauce, “the ketchup of the Philippines, … usually sweet, with subtle tropical flavors,” good on any foods from omelets to whatever

comes off the grill. Anther is gochujang, a dark red paste made of red chili peppers, rice powder and fermented soy beans — tangy, spicy, salty & slightly fruity — good added to eggs, noodles, dumplings or ham. Then there is kecap manis, “an excellent marinade or glaze for meat, seafood or vegetables.” Oyster sauce will add “an unmistakable Asian flavor” and will transform hamburger. Ponzu is tangy and bright and offers “a lively citrus note” to dishes. Thai peanut sauce is a particular favorite of mine. It is a good marinade, and I happen to like it on noodles. Then there are what the author classifies as European Sauces: aioli, “a Mediterranean mayonnaise with garlic … drizzled over vegetables or seafood”; ajvar (pronounced “ayevar”) of “roasted sweet red peppers, eggplant and … tomato.” Use atop baked potato, meatloaf and pasta or for potato salad; and Maggi seasoning, for noodles or roast chicken “or mix a little into soup.” There are lots more, but I think I should stop. While I probably have incurred the wrath of gourmet cooks, who make everything from scratch, perhaps I have helped some new brides … or grooms.
