from the 

editor 

Ahhh October… 

Iabsolutely love this month! 

As a huge fan of pumpkin everything (who isn’t?) I have 

shared some of my favorite pumpkin recipes – from a martini, 

to soup and more! There are also spooky inspired recipes to fill 

a goblin’s belly before heading out to trick-or-treat. Inside this 

issue we also have the CDC guidelines for a safe Halloween. 

Downtown Delray Beach is having some great (and safe) Halloween 

Festivities for all. Whether you choose to participate live or virtual, 

the Achievement Centers for Children and Families has great events 

planned – Witches Brew, Quiz Ride, a Witches hat decorating contest, 

and more! Read all about it in Gotta Know. 

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month - a cause near and dear 

to me. Early detection saves lives. The Mammo Van will be in our 

town on the 29th offering low cost mammograms, as well as financial 

assistance, and they accept insurance. Read about the details in Locals 

Only – appointments are necessary. 

We are very lucky to have no shortage of incredible people to feature 

as our City Person. Every month I say, “this human is my favorite,” only 

to be blown away by the next – and Roy Simon is no exception. He is 

Delray Beach. His grandfather immigrated here from Lebanon in 1911 

when the population was a mere 2000 people. Since then, he has built 

many of the buildings and homes in our beloved Village by the Sea, and 

tirelessly serves our community. Amazing. 

Do you dress up your pet for Halloween? Send your photos 

to info@atlanticavemagazine – subject line Pet Pix and 

make your furry friend a star! 

We all go a 

little mad 

sometimes. 

Haven’t 

you?

from Morikami Museum and 

Japanese Gardens 

Morikami Museum and 

Japanese Gardens has 

announced it will not be 

hosting its annual Lantern 

Festival this year on October 17 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The museum understands how meaningful and magical this 

holiday is to their guests and will be offering beautiful Lanternat-Home 

Kits to light up at-home celebrations and welcome 

home beloved ancestors’ spirits in honor of Obon. 

To participate, Morikami invites the public to purchase the 

Lantern-at-Home kits (online or in-store) for $20 and take 

photos of their toro nagashi (literally, flowing lanterns) in a 

pool, lake/ocean, bathtub (get creative!) and share them on 

Instagram using the hashtag #lanternathome and tag @morikamimuseum. 

All participants who share a photo submission 

by October 12, 2020, will be entered for a chance to win admission 

for two to Lantern Festival 2021. Ten winners will be

Arts Garage Resurrects Live 

Local Theatre with BUNKER 

The Arts Garage is announcing Theatre At Home: Live From 

Arts Garage with a live and simultaneously live-streamed 

performance of BUNKER, a one act play directed by and starring 

South Florida actor and writer Jonathan David Kelly. The 

timely and thought-provoking production will have one performance 

on Saturday, October 24, at 7 pm. 

continued page 12 




BUNKER dramatizes the story of Khalan 

and his mother as she finds herself becoming 

the very thing from which she is 

trying to protect him. This story of love reveals 

how wars may unintentionally start 

at home and the journey back to peace. It 

asks the demanding question: “How do you 

raise a Black Boy with no manual?” 

Kelly co-stars with performance poet, 

novelist and playwright Sharonda Eccentrich 

Richardson and librarian-turnededucator 

Shanteala Mash, both based in 

Broward County. 

The price for a live-streamed performance 

is $25, and $150 per table for in-person 

tickets. They can be purchased online 

at: https://artsgarage.org/event/theatreat-home-live-from-arts-garage-bunker/ 

For the in-person audience, Arts Garage 

is selling tables of 2, 4 and 6 that will be 

placed six feet apart. Concessions will be 

served table-side or chair-side, and—to reduce 

crowded common spaces—there will 

be no intermission. 

Arts Garage is located at 94 NE 2nd Avenue 

in Pineapple Grove. For more information, 

call 561.450.6357 or visit www.

Witches of Delray 

Charity Bike Ride 

Takes Different 

Kind of Flight 

The 9th Annual Witches of Delray charity 

bike ride to benefit Achievement 

Centers for Children & Families in Delray 

Beach will take a different kind of flight 

this year due to concerns over COVID-19. 

In place of a group bike ride, the Witches 

of Delray will hold various opportunities 

to “get wicked” both in person and virtually 

throughout Downtown Delray Beach 

throughout October. 

Participants can receive access to live and 

virtual experiences, including a Witches Quiz 

Ride, Witches Plates & Potions Hospitality 

Bingo, Best Virtual Cackle and Best Decorated 

Hat for a $20 donation. Participants will 

also have a chance to win a new bike at the 

Witches Brew held at Tim Finnegan’s with 

a special appearance by John Brewer of the 

Delray Beach Socially Distance Supper Club 

who will DJ. Participants will receive the 

“spell” to unlock all the “Ways to be Wicked 

with the Witches of Delray” via a private 

Facebook page after they sign up. 

“This year, we hope you will continue 

to support our annual Witches of Delray 

event with all the ways to be wicked! See 

you in October 2021 when we ride together 

again!” said Alpha Witch, Andie DeVoe.

Milagro Center 

Partners With 

Joshua’s Heart 

Foundation To 

Distribute Food To 

At-Risk Youth And 

Families Hit By 

Covid-19 Crisis 

If you’re familiar with Milagro Center in 

Delray Beach, you’ve undoubtedly heard 

the words “teach” and “inspire” as part of 

their mission of providing after-school academic 

and cultural arts programming for 

at-risk children and teens. But since the 

Covid-19 crisis hit last March, this landmark 

organization has added another key 

element to helping local youth and their 

families: “feed.” 

That word began reverberating early in 

the crisis when Milagro Center partnered 

with Hospitality Helping Hands and Living 

Hungry to provide 100 hot meals, three days 

a week, to families hit hard by job losses. 

That commitment continued through 

a partnership in August with the Joshua’s 

Heart Foundation when families in Boca 

atlantic ave magazine on vacation 

Raton and Delray Beach were provided 

with fresh fruits and vegetables, pasta, rice 

and other provisions. A total of 165 participants 

received nearly 4,116 lbs. of food or 

the equivalent of 3,430 meals were served 

over the course of two distributions.

Center, visit www.MilagroCenter.org or call

Achievement Centers for Children and 

Families (ACCF) and Healthier Delray 

Beach have established the “Love Matters 

Fund in Memory of Monica Herring,” 

an employee who served the ACCF for 16 

years. The fund will assist a child or children 

in the Delray Beach community to 

attend the Centers’ summer camp or after 

school programs. 

Over Ms. Herring’s tenure at the Achievement 

Centers for Children and Families, 

she worked in a variety of positions, most 

notably as its dance instructor. She passed 

away last month in a car accident. 

“She touched many lives through her 

kindness and soft-spoken manner and 

her passing is devastating to the staff and 


children,” said Stephanie Seibel, Chief Executive 

Officer of the Achievement Centers. 

“To carry on her mission of educating 

our youth is fitting and will help keep her 

memory alive. The Love Matters Fund in 

Memory of Monica Herring truly captures 

the love she gave to our kids.” 

The funds from donations received will 

provide financial assistance for families 

who cannot afford the full cost of ACCF’s out 

of school and/or summer camp programs. 

Donations can be made to (https://

locals only | delray under $50 

By Darien Davies 

Delray Under $50 

Most Fun Small Town, Most Crazy Small Town, Most Small Town that Feels 

Like a Big Town. Delray has it all. With a bustling downtown, Pineapple 

Grove area, and little nooks and crannies in between, there’s more 

to do in Delray now than ever, with events and happenings 

spanning from daytime to nighttime. While it can 

seem expensive at times, there’s a great 

opportunity to enjoy all the City has to offer 

without breaking the bank. Here’s what you can 

do in Delray Beach in October for $50 or less. 

We can all agree that 2020 has thrown us all for a loop. No 

one saw a pandemic coming, much less all the fire and ice 

natural disasters spreading across the nation. However, 

something that we can all learn from is that this has given us some 

perspective. October is Positive Attitude Month and instead of focusing 

on the negative, let’s all find the positive in the situation and be 

solutions oriented in our future mindset. In an effort to help, the City 

of Delray Beach and several local organizations have partnered to 

create the RISE: Climate & Art Weekend. This annual event expresses 

science through art to better connect people to imperative environmental 

challenges of this century, such as climate change and rising 

tides affecting our community. Held virtually from October 1 to 4, 

registered viewers can watch artistic discussions, see art exhibits, 

and hear from regional experts and City staff about climate change 

and impacts and resilience efforts that effect our community. You can 

expect to enjoy discussions about the roles of women in the state’s 

modern conservation and environmental movements, how regions 

of Florida are preparing for climate change and sea level rise, and the 

need to preserve our ocean ecosystems. Visit resilientdelray.com/ 

RISE for more information and to register for the event. 

spicy buffalo with blue cheese, birthday cake, dark chocolate caramel 

sea salt, salt and vinegar, smokey bacon cheddar, and more. Buy 

a small bag, get yourself a tin, or go all in with a sampler box. There 

are no wrong options when it comes to this “pop”ular delicacy. The 

Original Popcorn House is located at 10 N.E. Fifth Ave. Visit originalpopcornhouse.com 

or call (561) 865-7300 for more information and 

to plan an online order. 

Even though we can’t head out and experience live shows how 

we once did, we can still do our best to not only enjoy as much 

live action as we can, but also support our local creatives and 

local businesses as much as we can. October is National Field Trip 

Month and you’re invited to take a field trip via your Wi-Fi and check 

into the Arts Garage events this month where they’re hosting live 

events that you can enjoy from your home. They’re offering a Music 

at Home with artists such as JD Danner, Ann Hampton Callaway, the 

While it’s super fun to pop bottles, balloons 

and bubbles, it’s all eyes on the 

kernel prize this month. October is National 

Popcorn Poppin’ Month and there’s no need 

to try and perfect the popcorn pop at home because 

we have The Original Popcorn House right in our own 

backyard, and these professional people are popcorn 

magicians. They pop all of their mushroom-style popcorn 

in 100% pure coconut oil, and use only the finest ingredients, 

including Belgian chocolate and premium white and 

gold cheddar cheeses. They also remove as many of the unwanted 

hulls as possible, which ensures only the best handfuls 

of popcorn for each mouthwatering bite. Their delectable 

flavors blow past the average butter option (which they have 

and is amazing), and include dill pickle, loaded baked potato, 


Chris Thomas Band, and PIECE: An Instrumental Tribute to the 

Beatles, as well as Comedy Night, Poetry Night and Theatre at 

Home: Bunker. The best part is that if you wanted to brave the 

elements, you can still purchase a reserved table at the Arts Garage 

to experience the event in actual live fashion, just as long 

as you adhere to socially distanced and COVID-responsible protocols. 

It’s the best of both worlds, and a great way to get back 

out there at the level you feel most comfortable. The Arts Garage 

is located at 94 N.E. Second Ave. Ticket prices range from 

$5 to $150 for the aforementioned events, and you can find 

more information and purchase tickets by visiting artsgarage. 

org or calling (561) 450-6357. 

COVID-19 or not, the landscape of the world makes it okay 

to indulge in the seafood diet: when you see food, you eat 

food. In an effort to not go totally calorie crazy, stick to 

the theme of the month and at least you’ll be getting your fix 

of the freshest fish in town. October is National Seafood Month 

and couldn’t be a better time to sink your teeth into flavorful 

dishes while we’re in the Florida season of post-summer and 

pre-whatever. Whatever you do, make sure you indulge in the 

blackened fish tacos from City Oyster. Made with pico de gallo, 

cilantro, lime crema and flour tortillas for $17, these tacos are a 

prime example of how delicious, fresh fish is supposed to taste. 

You can also stop in J&J for some fine and fancy fish options 

like their Pan Seared Snapper with shrimp and lobster sauce 

over champagne risotto for $34. Or, head to RACKS Fish House 

& Oyster Bar and order literally everything from their raw bar 

including shrimp cocktail, half shell clam, fresh oysters, fish dip 

and seafood tower (market price), or go straight for the classic 

Lobster Roll with Old Bay aioli for $29. So go on, Poseidon, and 

rule the sea of Atlantic Avenue, you deserve it. Visit downtowndelraybeach.com 

for more downtown restaurant menus and 

location information. 

Did you know that eating a meat-free diet is one of the 

biggest actions you can take to stop climate change? 

Eating a veggie diet means 2.5 times less carbon emissions 

than a meat diet and could save the same amount of emissions 

as taking a small family car off the road for six months. 

October is Vegetarian Month so do the Earth and your fellow 

planet-conscious friends and animals a favor and say sayonara 

to meat for a little while. Good news is that there are tons of restaurants 

on the Avenue that are dishing out delish veggie-based 

meals that this will make this an easy transition for you. Stop by 

Whole Green Cafe and try their quinoa bowl, made with quinoa, 

tomato, cucumber, purple cabbage, carrots, avocado, roasted 

vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus and squash) and a 

cilantro-lime-yogurt-garlic dressing for $11.95. Or, dig into the 

whole wheat vegetable pizza from Pizza Rustica and savor the 

mountain of vegetables including roasted peppers, Roma tomatoes, 

sweet red onions, broccoli, garlic and button mushrooms 

over plum tomato sauce and mozzarella for $6.15 for a slice. 

You can also elevate your lunch meal and order the Thai and 

Japanese Lunch Box No. 5 from Ziree Thai and Sushi and enjoy 

a vegetable roll, three pieces of vegetable sushi, and tofu mixed 

vegetable for $12.95. With options like these, you won’t be 

missing meat all month long. Visit downtowndelraybeach.com 

for a complete list of downtown restaurants offering vegetarian 

dishes to help you with your Earth-friendly goals.

Here is a list movies scheduled to be released this month… 

With some theaters open, and more to follow, soon we will 

be enjoying popcorn, soda and a movie on the ‘Big Screen.’ 

October 2 

► Wonder Woman 1984 – Fast forward to the 1980s as Wonder 

Woman’s next big screen adventure finds her facing an all-new foe: 

The Cheetah. Principal photography is underway on Warner Bros. 

Pictures’ follow up to the Superhero’s first outing, last summer’s 

record-breaking “Wonder Woman,” which took in $822 million at the 

worldwide box office. “Wonder Woman 1984” will also be helmed by 

acclaimed director Patty Jenkins, and star Gal Gadot in the title role. 


► Honest Thief - When experienced bank robber Tom Carter 

(Liam Neeson) meets Annie (Kate Walsh) and falls in love with her, he 

resolves to change his ways and start anew. First on his to-do list is to 

turn himself in for the $7 million loot he has been hiding at the storage 

facility where he works. He, however, quickly realizes that the FBI isn’t 

as pristine as he thinks it is and that crooked and corrupt officials litter 

its ranks. Soon, he finds himself having to fight to clear and protect his 

name. Directed by Mark Williams. 

► The War with Grandpa - Sixth-grader Peter (Oakes Fegley) 

is pretty much your average kid - he likes gaming, hanging with his 

friends and his beloved pair of Air Jordans. But when his recently 

widowed grandfather Ed (Robert De Niro) moves in with Peter’s 

family, the boy is forced to give up his most prized possession of all, 

his bedroom. Unwilling to let such an injustice stand, Peter devises a 

series of increasingly elaborate pranks to drive out the interloper, but 

Grandpa Ed won’t go without a fight. Soon, the friendly combatants are 

engaged in an all-out war with side-splitting consequences. 


► Candyman - For as long as residents can remember, the housing 

projects of Chicago’s Cabrini-Green neighborhood were terrorized 

by a word-of-mouth ghost story about a supernatural killer with 

a hook for a hand, easily summoned by those daring to repeat his 

name five times into a mirror. In present day, a decade after the last 

of the Cabrini towers were torn down, visual artist Anthony McCoy 

(Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) and his partner, gallery director Brianna 

Cartwright (Teyonah Parris), move into a luxury loft condo in Cabrini, 

now gentrified beyond recognition and inhabited by upwardly mobile 

millennials. With Anthony’s painting career on the brink of stalling, a 

chance encounter with a Cabrini-Green old-timer (Colman Domingo) 

exposes Anthony to the tragically horrific nature of the true story 

behind Candyman. Anxious to maintain his status in the Chicago art 

world, Anthony begins to explore these macabre details in his studio 

as fresh grist for paintings, unknowingly opening a door to a complex 

past that unravels his own sanity and unleashes a terrifying wave of 

violence that puts him on a collision course with destiny. 

► The Trial of the Chicago 7 (Netflix) What was intended to be a 

peaceful protest at the 1968 Democratic National Convention turned 

into a violent clash with police and the National Guard. The organizers 

of the protest - including Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin, Tom Hayden and 

Bobby Seale - were charged with conspiracy to incite a riot and the 

trial that followed was one of the most notorious in history. 


► Connected - When Katie Mitchell (voiced by Abbi Jacobson), a 

creative outsider, is accepted into the film school of her dreams, her 

plans to meet “her people” at college are upended when her natureloving 

dad Rick (voiced by Danny McBride) determines the whole 

family should drive Katie to school together and bond as a family one 

last time. Katie and Rick are joined by the rest of the family, including 

Katie’s wildly positive mom Linda (voiced by Maya Rudolph), her 

quirky little brother Aaron (voiced by Mike Rianda), and the family’s 

delightfully chubby pug Monchi for the ultimate family road trip. 

Suddenly, the Mitchells’ plans are interrupted by a tech uprising: all 

around the world, the electronic devices people love - from phones, to 

appliances, to an innovative new line of personal robots - decide it’s 

time to take over. With the help of two friendly malfunctioning robots, 

the Mitchells will have to get past their problems and work together to 

save each other and the world! 

► Death on the Nile - Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot’s Egyptian 

vacation aboard a glamorous river steamer turns into a terrifying 

search for a murderer when a picture-perfect couple’s idyllic 

honeymoon is tragically cut short. Set against an epic landscape of 

sweeping desert vistas and the majestic Giza pyramids, this tale of 

unbridled passion and incapacitating jealousy features a cosmopolitan 

group of impeccably dressed travelers, and enough wicked twists and 

turns to leave audiences guessing until the final, shocking denouement. 

► Those Who Wish Me Dead - A teenage murder witness finds 

himself pursued by twin assassins in the Montana wilderness with 

a survival expert tasked with protecting him - and a forest fire 

threatening to consume them all. Starring Angelina Jolie, Nicholas 

Hoult, Jon Bernthal, Tyler Perry. 



► Come Play - Newcomer Azhy 

Robertson stars as Oliver, a lonely 

young boy who feels different from 

everyone else. Desperate for a friend, 

he seeks solace and refuge in his everpresent 

cell phone and tablet. When 

a mysterious creature uses Oliver’s 

devices against him to break into our 

world, Oliver’s parents (Gillian Jacobs and 

John Gallagher Jr.) must fight to save their son 

from the monster beyond 

the screen. 

► Fatale - In this 

suspenseful and provocative 

psychological 

thriller, a successful 

sports agent, Darren 

(Michael Ealy), watches his 

perfect life slowly disappear when 

he becomes entangled in a police investigation 

led by a discredited, disgraced and determined detective 

(Hilary Swank), with whom he had a wild 

one night stand.

The Searcher 

by Tana French 

Released October 6 

Cal Hooper thought a fixer-upper in a bucolic 

Irish village would be the perfect 

escape. After twenty-five years in the Chicago 

police force and a bruising divorce, he just 

wants to build a new life in a pretty spot with 

a good pub where nothing much happens. 

But when a local kid whose brother has gone 

missing arm-twists him into investigating, 

Cal uncovers layers of darkness beneath his 

picturesque retreat, and starts to realize that 

even small towns shelter dangerous secrets. 

“One of the greatest crime novelists writing 

today” (Vox) weaves a masterful, atmospheric 

tale of suspense, asking what we sacrifice 

in our search for truth and justice, and 

what we risk if we don’t. 

Survival Clause 

By Jenna Bennett 

36 | october 2020 | www.AtlanticAveMagazine.com 


Savannah’s friend Tamara Grimaldi was 

fourteen when her mom was murdered, 

and the body dumped along the side of Interstate 

65 in Indiana. Since then, Grimaldi has 

kept an eye out for her mother’s killer, first 

as a homicide detective in Nashville, and now 

as the Chief of Police for the city of Columbia, 

Tennessee, a few miles off I-65. 

When a new body with the old MO shows 

up along I-65 in Maury County, it looks like 

there might be a break in the case. But trying 

to find a serial killer who has been active for 

two decades, along an interstate that stretches 

from the Gulf of Mexico to the Great Lakes, 

is easier said than done. 

Even though this time, there are indications 

that the culprit might be found closer 

to home... 

Invisible Girl 

by Lisa Jewell 


Owen Pick’s life is falling apart. 

In his thirties, a virgin, and living in his 

aunt’s spare bedroom, he has just been suspended 

from his job as a computer science 

teacher after accusations of sexual misconduct, 

which he strongly denies. Searching for 

professional advice online, he is inadvertently 

sucked into the dark world of incel—involuntary 

celibate—forums, where he meets the 

charismatic, mysterious, and sinister Bryn. 

Across the street from Owen lives the 

Fours family, headed by mom Cate, a physiotherapist, 

and dad Roan, a child psychologist. 

But the Fours family have a bad feeling about 

their neighbor Owen. He’s a bit creepy and 

their teenaged daughter swears he followed 

her home from the train station one night. 

Meanwhile, young Saffyre Maddox spent 

three years as a patient of Roan Fours. Feeling 

abandoned when their therapy ends, 

she searches for other ways to maintain 

her connection with him, following him in 

the shadows and learning more than she 

wanted to know about Roan and his family. 

Then, on Valentine’s night, Saffyre Maddox 

disappears—and the last person to see her 

alive is Owen Pick. 

Return to Virgin River 

by Robyn Carr 


Kaylee Sloan’s home in Southern California 

is full of wonderful memories of the 

woman who raised her. But the memories 

are prolonging her grief over her mother’s 

recent death. A successful author, Kaylee 

hoped she could pour herself into her work. 

Instead she has terrible writer’s block and a 

looming deadline. 

Determined to escape distractions and 

avoid the holiday season, Kaylee borrows a 

cabin in Virgin River. She knows the isolation 

will help her writing, and as she drives north 

through the mountains and the majestic redwoods, 

she immediately feels inspired. Until 

she arrives at a building that has just gone 

up in flames. Devastated, she heads to Jack’s 

Bar to plan her next steps. The local watering 

hole is the heart of the town, and once she 

crosses the threshold, she’s surprised to be 

embraced by people who are more than willing 

to help a friend—or a stranger—in need. 

Kaylee’s world is expanding in ways she 

never dreamed possible. And when she rescues 

a kitten followed by a dog with a litter 

of puppies, she finds her heart opening 

up to the animals who need her. And then 

there’s the dog trainer who knows exactly 

how to help her. As the holidays approach, 

Kaylee’s dread turns to wonder. Because 

there’s no better place to spend Christmas 

than Virgin River.


health & beauty | pain relief 

By Dr. Safranski 

The Importance of Time 

Before sitting down and deciding on a topic for this month’s 

article, I had a conversation with a patient. This patient is a 

sweet woman in great shape and full of life, but today she had 

a “knot” in her shoulder that was causing her pain. During our 

conversation, I began to realize that she was impatient and 

really didn’t understand the importance of her diagnosis and 

the amount of time it would take to actually treat. 

When she hopped off the table she said “That’s it, I’m fixed 

right? You put it back in place?” For the sake of time, I’ll 

keep my answer short. I said, “No ma’am that’s not exactly 

how it works.” 

Let us dive into what we have been tiptoeing around for the past 

few articles. Simply put - YOUR BODY WILL ADAPT TO THE EN- 

VIROMENT YOU EXPOSE IT TO DAILY. If you sit at a desk in poor 

posture looking at your computer all day, your body will slowly 

(time reference) turn into the positions you are in for long periods 

of time repetitively. For example, let’s say a person that works all 

day sitting at a desk on a computer comes into the office for neck 

and upper back pain. The pain is just the symptom caused by prolonged 

poor posture. This can lead to rounded shoulders, forward 

head posture, TMJ-Disorder, headaches, vertigo, and even radiating 

pain down the arms and hands. Chiropractors use your symptoms 

to trace your pain to the root cause - which could be something as 

simple as a muscle strain secondary to posture related issues. In severe 

cases, due to the decrease in proper cervical and thoracic biomechanics, 

muscles become retrained to protect the spine, causing 

improper loading of the spine which increases the predilection for 

a disc related injury, all from bad posture. 

What does this have to do with time? Time is the driving factor 

in injuries such as these. These injuries aren’t traumatic, they are 

slow degenerative injuries. Time is also the driving force in treating 

and restoring proper posture to these patients. There is no onetime 

adjustment, there is no “It’s back in place and I’m good to go” 

treatment. These injuries take time to manifest and they also take 

time to correct. 

There are three stages to soft tissue injuries and reformation - 

each having their own layers of complexities. 

1. The inflammatory stage - with chronic injuries we tend to see 

this when we start doing soft tissue work like myofascial release, 

stretching the tissue, or during the acute exacerbation of the chronic 

injury. This can last about 72 hours and is common after an injury 

to be sore after treatment. 

2. Repair phase - in this phase the inflammatory response has 

subsided, and the tissue is starting to heal. During this phase it is 

important to break bad habits, so the tissue starts to heal properly. 

A diet rich in collagen, vegetables, and being well hydrated are important 

to create new healthy tissue. This phase can take anywhere 

from 72 hours to 6 weeks depending on the severity of injury. 

3. The remodeling phase - with the formation of new collagen, 

it’s time to mold and reshape the tissue. This is where we introduce 

exercise to strengthen and reshape the tissue. This process can take 

three weeks to 12 months, again, injury dependent. Most chronic 

injuries, or posture related injuries tend to take anywhere from 4 

months to a year to see a full transformation. 

Remember, when you are with a health care professional, listen 

to them. Ask questions about the duration of care. Your doctor 

should make you feel empowered in your care. We can help you get 

better. It just takes time!

By dr. thomas c. balshi, m.d. 

The Liquid Face Lift 

During the anti-aging and wellness revolution, 

ultramodern aesthetic techniques have evolved 

to restore youth and vibrancy back for millions of 

people, without surgery. In fact, gentle face lifting 

and volume restoration can be obtained painlessly 

for some patients in less than 45 minutes and 

without general anesthesia or IV sedation. 

Several factors cause aging of the face. The loss of elastic tissue 

and collagen causes the skin to sag. Environmental damage 

and UV light often cause age spots and wrinkles. The 

most significant culprit to age the face is loss of volume. Atrophy 

(loss of plump baby fat) develops in the nasolabial folds, lips, and 

lower face. The hollow below the eyes grows deeper and the 

plumpness of ear lobes diminishes as we age. Some of the 

facial muscles lose their volume and even cheek bones undergo 

resorption. 

A “liquid face lift” is a nonsurgical procedure which involves 

the use of cosmetic fillers (Restylane, Juvederm, 

Sculptra, Voluma, and others) and Botox to restore volume 

and soften wrinkles thus rejuvenating the face. 

The safest preferable fillers are of the hyaluronic acid 

family. The molecule is a sugar-based gel that naturally 

supports the cells in skin; it is the major component in 

the fluids that lubricate joints. These “injectables” are 

placed under the skin to instantly restore skin volume and 

smooth away facial wrinkles and folds, adding and restoring 

the natural contour of the cheeks and even re-plumping 

the lips and ear lobes. These injectables look and feel totally 

natural. Everyone will notice, but no one will know. 

Results from liquid face lift procedures are usually gradual and 

can range from subtle to astonishing. Patients may return to most 

normal activities almost immediately. 

A liquid face lift procedure is tailored to each individual, so 

pricing depends upon a number of factors, including the extent 

of loss of collagen, skin laxity, skin damage, color and thickness, 

individual health, and goals. This enables 

your dermatologist to make your personal 

renaissance as unique and special 

as you are, and as comfortable 

and rewarding as possible.

Trick or Treat? 

Deciphering between healthy foods 

and “fake” healthy foods 

If you are overwhelmed or confused by all the proclaimed 

“healthy” foods that are out on the shelves today, you are not 

alone! Unless you are super knowledgeable on nutrition it is 

hard for the average consumer to really know what is good for 

them and what is just another “fake” healthy product! It is easy to 

be tricked with savvy labeling and marketing. Let’s take a look at 

some of the trickiest misleading “healthy” foods on the market! 

1. Protein/Energy Bars 

Although there are some good ones out there (shout out to my 

beloved FroPro), most are full of tricks. Added sugars, sugar alcohols, 

preservatives, food dyes, chemicals… the list goes on. The other 

issue with these bars is that some of them are advertised as having 

minimal ingredients, which is great but, the sugar content is through 

the roof! At that point you could be eating the sugar equivalent to 

a candy bar. On the contrary, if the bar has “no sugar” which a lot 

of people would naturally see and think, “Oh this is great!” it’s most 

likely filled with sugar alcohols which can cause bloating and some 

other unwanted side effects. 

2. Veggie Patties 

“It’s all veggies, no meat…what could be bad about mashed up 

veggies!?” A lot! Most of these patties are loaded with sodium, fillers, 

and chemicals to bind the veggies into a burger like consistency. Not 

so healthy after all! 

3. Veggie Chips 

Speaking of veggies, let’s talk about veggies in chip form! Just 

because they are made from veggies does not mean they 

are good for you! It is the oils and saturated fats they 

are fried in where this goes wrong. Not to mention, 

most veggie chips have potatoes listed as their first 

ingredient and contain the same amount of calories 

as regular potato chips. That’s definitely a “trick!” 

You are better off making kale or sweet potato 

chips, which are easy and delicious, without all 

the extra added oils and calories. 

4. Juice/Smoothies 

These are a huge culprit and can be so misleading 

to the average consumer. “Eat your fruits, eat 

your veggies” is what we are used to hearing. Getting 

your daily intake of greens and veggies all at 

once sounds like a great idea, but before picking up 

your next juice, take a close look at the sugar content. For example, 

let us take the “Original Superfood 100% Juice/Puree Blend.” This 

brand has a whopping 51 grams of sugar! Yikes! Sadly, there are 

many other brands just like this or worse. A healthy green juice drink 

is one with less than 15 grams of sugar per serving, saving yourself 

from unnecessary sugar and calories. 

5. OrGAnic Snacks 

We assume that anything labeled “organic” would naturally be 

better for you…fewer calories, less fat, less processed than non-organic 

foods. “Organic cheese balls must be better than non-organic 

right!?” Yes, but processed foods are still processed. Organic may 

mean slightly better ingredients but that doesn’t give one free reign 

to chow down. Just remember to treat these “snacks” like you would 

anything else and don’t over-eat just because it’s “organic.” We have 

all used that excuse now and again! 

6. Skinny Lattes 

I could not believe how many clients I’ve met with recently are 

drinking these. I think the word “skinny” throws a lot of people off. 

These coffee drinks are not so “skinny” after all. One 16oz skinny 

latte from Starbucks contains 16 grams of sugar compared to a 

regular coffee with almond milk and stevia which has 0 grams. Stick 

with the latter! 

7. Zero Calorie Foods 

Here is another item that tricks many people. Zero calorie foods 

can come in the form of drinks, salad dressings, sauces, syrups, 

etc. But if this amazing salad dressing has zero calories, 

then what are you really ingesting? The answer is chemicals, 

sugar alcohols, and preservatives. Gross! But it’s 

zero calories, right? Wrong! A better choice is having 

a small serving of the real deal than eating chemicals. 

These are a few examples of tricky healthy foods 

out there, but there are many more. Think twice before 

buying something labeled “healthy, skinny or 

calorie free.” Paying extra attention to the nutrition 

label could potentially save you from extra 

unwanted calories, chemicals, and junk.

Delray Dermatology + Cosmetic Center 

Get Back to 

Health and Wellness 

By nicol jenkins | photos by Allison Embry 

This year has been challenging for all of us, and 

now more than ever is the time to take care of 

yourself and get back to feeling like your best self. 

Dr. Francesca Lewis, Dermatologist & Owner Jules Reardon, Medical Aesthetician Lorraine Kryvicky, Physician Assistant 

The first priority at Delray Dermatology + Cosmetic Center is 

maintaining your health and wellness. They aim to address 

all of your skin health needs including: General Dermatology, 

Cosmetic Dermatology, Laser Services, Aesthetician Services, 

Coolsculpting and more. 

They are a boutique full-service Dermatology practice in the 

heart of East Delray Beach combining excellent medical and surgical 

Dermatologic care with exceptional cosmetic treatments. Dr. 

Francesca Lewis, a board certified general and cosmetic Dermatologist, 

opened Delray Dermatology + Cosmetic Center three years 

ago to provide the highest quality dermatological care in the area. 

Dr. Francesca Lewis and her team specialize in skin cancer diagnosis 

and treatment and comprehensive medical Dermatology. 

They pride themselves in offering the latest cosmetic treatments 

and personalized treatment regimens from a compassionate medical 

team in a beautiful, comfortable environment. 

Delray Dermatology is practicing all recommended safety protocols 

to keep their office sanitized and their patients safe. At appointment 

confirmation, patients are screened for any symptoms or potential 

exposures to COVID-19. Upon entry for all, temperatures are 

taken, screened for a fever, and asked if they have been in contact 

with anyone who has COVID-19. Every day, they take the temperatures 

of staff members, and ask if they have any symptoms or have 

been in contact with anyone who has COVID-19. At all times, staff 

members are wearing masks, and during any procedures they are 

wearing a double mask or an N95 mask with a face shield. Botox, 

fillers, lasers and facials are being performed with heightened precautions, 

with aestheticians and staff sanitizing before and after ev- 


ery visit. They are also minimizing the number of patients allowed 

in the waiting room area and patients may elect to wait in their car 

until they are called for their appointment. They also continue to 

offer virtual tele-dermatology appointments for patients who do 

not yet desire to come for an in-person appointment. 

Instead of in-person events, Delray Dermatology is hosting online 

events on social media. Their Virtual Anniversary Open House 

Event will be held live on their Facebook and Instagram on October 

22nd from 4 to 6pm celebrating their 3rd year in business! When 

you purchase tickets online for $25 through Eventbrite, you receive 

an equivalent credit to use on any skin care or service purchase the 

day of the event. You will also receive a party box with champagne, 

treats and skin care samples in the mail! 

The most popular procedures post COVID-19 have been Botox 

and fillers. With the uptick in Zoom meetings and Facetime, more 

people are noticing their forehead lines, crow’s feet and other facial 

lines prompting them to seek Botox treatments. Coolsculpting 

has also been popular to combat the dreaded COVID-19 pounds. 

They are also one of the first practices in Florida offering Cooltone, 

a revolutionary body contouring device made by the same company 

as Coolsculpting which offers immediate, painless, long-lasting 

muscle definition for the abs, arms and glutes. Now, in combination 

with Coolsculpting for fat removal, Exilis Ultra 360 for skin tightening 

and Cooltone for muscle contouring, Delray Dermatology can 

offer the complete non-invasive body sculpting package. 

“Everyone is feeling out of shape right now. Coolsculpting gives 

a permanent fat reduction in just 1 to 2 treatments,” said Dr. Lewis. 

“We also offer a new device called Cooltone, a muscle toning device 

which can be used on the abdomen, thighs and buttocks. It tones the 

muscle, with a series of 4 to 6 treatments and no downtime.” 

Due to mask usage, the Delray Beach office has also seen an increase 

in medical conditions including eczema, perioral dermatitis, 

Willa Tuggle, Front Desk Coordinator 

Leah Nieves, Medical Aesthetician & CoolSculpting Specialist 

and acne for which there are many medical treatments. In addition, 

increased sun exposure over the last few months have led to more 

accumulated sun damage. They also offer IPL photofacials, a laser 

that treats brown spots and redness. 

For flawless and youthful looking skin, Clear and Brilliant is 

still the most loved laser treatment on the market and most popular 

in the practice. Made by the same company that makes Fraxel, 

it helps resurface the skin with no downtime in just four to 

six treatments. It gives amazing results treating pigmentation and 

melasma, shrinking pore size and fine lines and helping the skin 

achieve overall radiance. 

“We continue to offer new technologies and improve our existing 

treatments for our patients to continue to get maximal results,” 

said Dr. Lewis. “Our philosophy is complete correction with a comprehensive 

arsenal of industry leading devices to combat signs of 

aging, and reverse common concerns such as skin elasticity, wrinkles 

and cellulite to maximize the best results for patients.” 

Delray Dermatology + Cosmetic Center also offers general dermatology 

in addition to cosmetic procedures and treatments. Dr. 

Lewis specializes in skin cancer diagnosis and treatment and is 

board certified in comprehensive medical Dermatology. 

“Remembering it is important as the pandemic stretches on that 

we need to care about preventive health and continue to be evaluated 

for skin cancer,” said Dr. Lewis.

Thermae Retreat 

Detox the Old and 

Change Your Perspective 

By nicol jenkins | photos by melissa korman 

Things may appear not to be going in your favor… Perhaps you 

feel unfulfilled in your work or your relationships, you feel anxious 

all the time and tired. Life has become something unexpected. 

Shaman Debra Kelly 

But what if you could improve your relationships in all areas 

of your life with co-workers, your significant other, family, 

and most importantly with yourself. 

All you have to do is release the old and bring in a new perspective. 

That’s what Kelly Doyle, owner of Thermae Retreat, has been instilling 

in her members and guests. She leads by example. When she 

changed her thoughts, her entire life went on a new path. 

Knowing something in her felt off, there was a yearning for 

change, but she had no idea what that meant. While spending a 

month alone at a wellness spa in Holland, she cleared her mind in 

the saunas by simply being quiet, still. One day in the garden she 

was asked ‘what are you thinking about’ and her answer was… 

‘nothing.’ It was the first time Kelly’s head was quiet, not thinking 

about work, family, the past or what was happening next. 

Her awakening prompted a passion to help others live a more 

fulfilling life in the present out of ego and in gratitude and joy. The 

concept of Thermae Retreat in Delray Beach and Fort Lauderdale 

provides an organic, wellness space centered around relaxation, 

detoxing saunas and holistic therapies. 

“If you change your perspective on how you see something, it 

opens up so many avenues. This year, people started to ask themselves, 

‘am I being responsible with my own health,’ and most 

realized the answer was no. This goes beyond what we consider 

“healthy” which is typically determined by weight or sickness. We 

now know true health is determined by what we call “whole system 

health.” How is your body doing? How are you mentally? How is 

your emotional state? And how is your spirit? 

The moment guests walk through the doors of Thermae Retreat, 

they are greeted with tranquility. The retreat spa is a no cell phone 

zone. A safe space to release and renew. 

Kelly and her team help guests to detox mentally and emotionally 

through various treatments. One method is EFT-Tapping which 

helps people release old programming and in turn see things from 

a new perspective. 

“All of this programming is instilled from childhood and becomes 

our story; how we look, act, feel or not feel, walk, talk and what 

we believe and think. We make decisions through this web of programming 

and for so many this does not fit with whom we truly 

are or what we really want. With experiences like EFT, we are releasing 

those thoughts that continuously loop in our brains subconsciously,” 

said Kelly, adding, “The idea is to have people change 

Floresta Organic Cafe in large garden 


their perspective. It allows you to see things for how they really are 

instead of the old story we automatically give to it. We can let it go 

or change how we perceive it. It’s life changing.” 

To assist with helping clients detox physically and strengthen 

their immune system, they offer a dual black detox clay, an earl grey 

detoxifying scrub, relaxing hot stone Finnish barrel sauna, and detoxing 

infrared saunas with chromotherapy and ozone, all located 

in the private back garden. You can enter the second garden and enjoy 

a cleansing smoothie at the organic Floresta Café. Thermae also 

offers Cupping Therapy, which moves and pulls toxins out from the 

body and opens the muscles, and a hydrotherapy tub in a private 

room in their Fort Lauderdale location offers detoxing mustard 

seed soaks and ACV soaks for joint pain. 

Find inner peace and detox spiritually with Thermae’s sound 

baths. Private or small groups of up to 8 can have a custom journey. 

Relax the body at the same time with a combination of massage 

therapy and singing bowls, gongs and chimes. Partner, Shaman 

Debra Kelly takes this experience to the next level with Sacred 

Bodywork, and assists you in re-centering, finding a sense of peace, 

and releasing energies that no longer serve you. She taps into the 

negative emotions that settle in your body causing pain, imbalance 

and disease. 

Thermae offers 1-3 day retreats for up to 12 guests, which focus 

on detoxing emotionally, physically, spiritually or mentally. The 

Amo journey offers customized couples’ massage and sound bath 

with a beautiful meditative ceremony. The Shaman and energy 

workers have been able to help couples mend broken relationships 

Hot Stone Finnish Sauna in private garden 

or discover new ways to connect on deeper levels. 

“Thermae Retreat exists to give people a place to come and be 

still for an hour or afternoon. The most important thing you can do 

is go inside yourself and get rid of what you don’t need and make 

room for what is to come. When your mind is not focused on the 

story or what you need to do later, and you’re able to be present 

with a fresh perspective on everything, you feel a new kind of joy 

and peace. We are here to help you find that.”

of our latest program “New Member Spotlight” is that open 

window. Planned each Thursday, our “New Member Spotlight” provides 

a small group zoom call for new members to share their story, 

their business and their needs with a few of our Ambassadors. The setting 

is casual, the questions are warm and we are back to being a Chamber 

where “Welcoming Works”. By the end of the call everyone leaves 

with a sense of community and care.

the Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce – COVID may have closed the

totally secure—if only for a day.

During the month of October, The Seagate Spa is offering a

enticing spa package gives you an additional reason to enjoy some

That’s more than $100 off the usual $525 price. 

Just as important, the Awaken Your Spirit Package comes with 

the “Seagate Safe” promise. Working in partnership with Ecolab, 

The Seagate Spa has undertaken extreme safety measures to

from start to finish. In fact, the precautions extend not just to the 

spa, but to all Seagate properties, through a comprehensive, sitewide 

program. 

Seagate Safe includes more than 150 additional procedures to 

ensure the safety of every guest. From staggering spa appointments 

30 minutes apart to allow additional time for hospital-grade 

sanitization, to placing all linens in sealed bags before removing 

them from treatment rooms, to requiring masks, gloves, caps, and 

eyewear on all spa technicians, to carefully screening each new 

guest for any sign of illness, The Seagate’s safety precautions are 

nothing short of extraordinary. 

Guest lockers are spaced in accordance with social distancing 

guidelines and locked to avoid accidental contamination postdisinfection. 

Each spa guest handles their own credit card 

transactions and payment processing on the day of their visit, signing 

with a pen presented for their use only, throughout their stay. 

Rest assured, The Seagate Spa has taken care of every minute 

detail, making certain that your day-long retreat remains both safe 

and stress-free. All of which leaves you free to focus on feeling the 

tension melt away. 

You’ll start with a totally decadent, 50-minute Aromatherapy 

Massage for mind and body. Afterward, you’ll partake in an equally 

relaxed and decadent, 50-minute Optimal Skin Hydrating Facial, 

which will leave your skin glowing and feeling deeply rejuvenated. 

Finally, you’ll end the day with an Advanced Ritual Manicure and 

Pedicure that stretches for another unrushed 130 minutes, allowing 

you plenty of time to finish off your complimentary Pinot Noir. 

By the time your spa day is complete, you’ll feel ready to face the 

world again—renewed, relaxed, and revitalized from head to toe.

Roy Simon 

The city of 

Delray is 

always in 

Roy’s heart. 

He never 

gives up and 

is always 

working hard 

for people..

A Delray Beach Treasure 

To newcomers in Delray Beach 

the name Simon may not ring 

a bell. There are no buildings 

with their name and no 

monuments that tell their story. 

Yet, the Simon family has roots that run as deep as the oldest 

banyan tree. Their story is one of Delray Beach lore and civic 

responsibility. 

In 1911 Alexander Abraham moved from Lebanon to Delray 

Beach. In 1920 he brought his son Alexander. The rest of the Simon 

clan and their relatives followed. In those days Delray was a farming 

town (hard to believe now) and the total population was about 2000. 

Roy Simon was one of them. 

As the son of Alexander, Roy learned that honesty and integrity 

were as important as the land you stood on. Deals were done on a 

handshake and if you needed money, the Simon name was as solid 

as the words American Express. 

“My father built a reputation on ethics and trust. You could go into 

any bank and do business if you were the son of Alexander Simon.” 

Roy has stayed true to his fathers’ reputation and dedication 

to hard work. The elder Mr. Simon sold and shipped produce and 

farmed on 25 acres of land he owned in Boca Raton. 

His son Roy took a different route. He went to Georgia Institute 

of Technology and got a degree in Architecture. He also served as 

an officer in the Air Force in Scotland where he got instant on the 

job training. 

“I was fresh out of college and was involved in building dormitories, 

mess halls, a chapel, bowling alley and more. We built 135 

buildings in two years. It was my first job out of college,” said the 

architect with the biggest resume and quietest persona in town. 

Though he is low key Roy is a giant when it comes to historical 

and factual information about Delray. He can tell you about any 

building and its historical reference point. “Did you know we had 

three grocery stores on Atlantic Avenue and a fish market?” he asks. 

Roy’s architect friend Roger Cope calls him a living legend and an 

architectural treasure. 

“I bought a historic home in Delray and the archival documents 

were drawn by R.S. When I called Roy, I found out it was his signature. 

He was an intern at the time with Kenneth Jacobson and 

he drew the plans by hand. Roy also knew the family history of my 

house. He’s the Godfather of architecture here.” 

You bet he is. 

“The city of Delray is always in Roy’s heart. He never gives up and 

is always working hard for people. You couldn’t ask for a nicer man 

and a nicer family,” said former legislator Richard Machek. 

Roy’s office is a museum and homage to Delray Beach. There are 

black and white photographs of the shoreline and Atlantic Avenue’s 

former less developed self. There are also photos of buildings he 

built in his storied 62-year history as an architect. 

But self-interest is not what Roy Simon is about. Quite to the contrary 

his true love (aside from his family) is Delray Beach. He has contributed 

to the evolution and constitution of Delray since he was a lad. 

He was President of the Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce 

twice, founding member of Delray Historical Society, founder of 

Downtown Development Authority and Trustee of Old School 

Square Historic Preservation. 

Roy received the Rotary Club “Service Above Self” Award for Outstanding 

Service in the community, the Jaycees Distinguished Service 

Award and the Delray City Commission Award for 40 years of 

service on city advisory boards. 

He also co-founded the Delray Affair and Initiated the Pro-Am Golf 

Tournament benefitting Bethesda Memorial Hospital for 40 years. 

But that’s only half of his civic engagement in a city that reigns 

supreme in his consciousness. “My father loves this town more than 

anyone and is the official historian of Delray. His grandfather, uncles 

and cousins settled here; and to establish a life in Delray for his family 

is something he holds onto dearly. He is a great leader. When he 

saw a need, he always found solutions for Downtown Delray to be 

sustainable throughout history,” said daughter Laura Simon, Executive 

Director of the Downtown Development Authority. 

Not only is Roy a vital part of the sociological infrastructure of Delray, 

he is also a renowned architect. He designed Delray Community 

Center Pompey Park, Trinity Lutheran School and Church, Atlantic 

Plaza, St. Vincent Church and hundreds of other buildings and homes. 

Mark Denkler has seen Roy’s architectural genius up close. “Roy 

uniquely designs properties in Florida. He uses building designs 

that allow sunlight, while reducing cooling costs. He also knows the 

history of Delray, so when he remodels a home (like ours) the addition 

flows with the original property. Roy and his family are the 

foundation and soul of the city,” said the owner of Tootsies Shoes. 

Roy’s architectural philosophy was ingrained in school. “We were 

taught to think of ourselves as doctors. People come to us with a 

problem and we solve it. The end result is that we create something 

that people will enjoy.” 

That mission has been accomplished. Roy’s churches, homes and 

offices have the Simon sentiment. They allow for pleasant public 

spaces while enhancing South Florida’s inherent beauty. 

Despite his amazing career, Roy is most proud of his family. Michael 

is Director of the Boynton Beach CRA, son Christopher is a 

landscape architect and daughter Laura is with the DDA. He’s been 

married to Beth for 59 years and has five grandchildren. 

Longevity is also what defines him. Roy has been a member of St. 

Paul’s Episcopal Church for 85 years and has played an active role 

in many capacities. 

Serving others before self is a biblical yet profound accomplishment. 

Roy Simon has a lifetime of doing just that. 

“My father has made a tremendous impact on me and my family, 

as well as thousands of business owners, visitors and property 

owners in Delray Beach. It’s an honor to work and walk in his 

shoes,” adds Laura.

1 1/2 c. marinara, warmed 

Mozzarella cheese, cut into rounds 

Black olives, sliced crosswise into rounds 


directions 

1. Preheat oven to 400° and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment. 

2. In a large bowl, add beef, onion, Panko, garlic, parsley, and egg. Season 

generously with salt and pepper. Mix ingredients together with a rubber 

spatula or your hands until well combined, then shape into 1” balls. Place onto 

baking sheet. 

3. Bake for 13 minutes, then to each meatball, add a piece of cheese and olive to 

resemble eyeballs. Bake until cheese is melty, 2 minutes more. 

4. Meanwhile, in a large pot of salted, boiling water, cook spaghetti according to 

package directions until al dente. Drain and transfer to platter. 

5. Pour warm marinara sauce over spaghetti, then scatter with meatballs. 

Witchy Finger Cookies 

INGREDIENTS 

1 egg 

1 cup butter, softened 

1 cup confectioners’ sugar 

1 teaspoon almond extract 

1 teaspoon vanilla extract 

2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour 

1 teaspoon baking powder 

1 teaspoon salt 

¾ cup whole almonds 

1 .75 ounce tube red decorating gel* 

directions 

Combine butter, egg, sugar, almond and 

vanilla extract in a mixing bowl. Beat 

together with an electric mixer, gradually 

add flour, baking powder and salt and 

continue beating. Refrigerate for 20-30 

minutes (do not skip this step!). 

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Light grease 

baking sheets or line them with parchment 

paper. Remove dough from refrigerator in 

small amounts. Scoop 1 heaping teaspoon at 

a tine onto a piece of waxed paper. Use the 

waxed paper to roll the dough into a thin 

finger-shaped cookie. Press one almond into 

one end of each cookie to resemble a long 

fingernail, Squeeze cookie near the tip and 

again near the center to mimic knuckles. 

With a sharp knife, make lines in the dough 

(without cutting completely through). Place 

cookies on baking sheets. 

Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies 

are slightly golden in color, about 20-25 

minutes. 

* This next step is optional. Remove the 

almond from the end of each cookie; 

squeeze a small amount of red decorating 

gel into the cavity; replace the 

almond to make the gel 

ooze out around the 

tip of the cookie. 

Additional tips: Add 

green food coloring 

to the dough for green 

monster hands. Add 

chocolate chips to 

resemble warts. 

Also note, the 

cookies enlarge 

when baked!

of pumpkin puree 

2 medium onions, sliced 

2 cloves of garlic 

3 cups chicken or vegetable stock 

1 cup milk - for vegan see Note 2 below. 

Salt and pepper 

directions 

Combine all ingredients (except salt and pepper) in 

a saucepan and bring to boil, then reduce heat and 

let simmer until pumpkin is tender.

until smooth. If you don’t have a stick blender, use a 

blender (see Note 3 below). 

Season to taste with salt and pepper, then serve with 

crusty bread. 

Variations: For a richer finish, substitute the milk with 

cream, but add after blending and do not bring to boil.

fraiche goes wonderfully. 

Notes 

1. ~2.5lb pumpkin before peeling and removing seeds. 

2. To make it vegan, substitute with almond or soy milk. 

3. If you don’t have a stick blender, you can use a blender 

BUT you must make sure that the soup is cooled 

slightly before blending it, otherwise you will find out 

the hard way that hot soup + blender = soup explosion 

(literally, the lid will blow off the blender when you 

start blending it).

heat. Cook the sausage until it is almost done - about 8 minutes. 

Remove the sausage from the pan, increase heat to medium, and 

add the onion and 2 cups of the chopped pumpkin. Sauté until the 

pumpkin begins to soften - 5 to 7 minutes. Add the chopped apple 

and sausage and sauté for 3 minutes. Add the wine, cook for 2 minutes, 

remove from heat, and set aside. Combine the couscous, dried 

cranberries, olive oil, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper in a large

the stuffing mixture and place the pumpkins in a shallow baking 

dish. Cover the dish with aluminum foil, bake for 25 minutes, remove

Do I Need to Detox My Pets and How? 

The key to optimal health and the prevention of disease is proper 

nutrition and remaining toxin free. Easier said than done in 

today’s environmental condition. Much of our food sources are 

grown on poor quality land containing many synthetic chemicals and 

toxic fertilizers. Pet food specifically, is mass produced, highly processed 

and can contain additional chemicals, preservatives, hormones, appetite 

enhancers and more. While we recommend avoiding these commercially 

toxic, processed foods, we realize that many pet owners are 

unaware of the truth about pet foods. We constantly explain it here and 

you can find much more information throughout our archives. 

Let’s address the need for detoxifying your pets with how, why, and 

how often. 

We know from our ongoing research that there are numerous issues 

and repercussions from those commercially “balanced diets” for our 

pets. Many contain synthetic compounds and some even contain toxic 

ingredients that the body accumulates daily. 

We know of the daily exposure if we walk our pets outdoors. Like us, 

our pets are exposed to the daily chemtrails above. Above, you can see 

strange cloud trails and patterns in the sky that look unnatural. The 

government sprays to protect us all from mosquitoes, Zika, Encephalitis, 

West Nile and an ever-expanding list of viruses. The method used 

is done with aerosols that all eventually settle to the ground where our 

pets walk with unprotected feet daily. Add that to all the lawn chemicals 

they are also exposed to that also percolate those chemicals back 

up into their surroundings with every rain. Inside, think about the 

products you use to clean your floors and carpeting. We never think 

that our pets are exposed there as well as when toxic cleaners are 

used. We wouldn’t want our babies to crawl around on those areas. 

Isn’t your pet important too? 

If the above exposures aren’t enough of an assault, add on what we 

are told is “modern medicine.” This consists of flea, tick and heartworm 

drugs, a barrage of vaccines and boosters (sold as preventatives), as 

well as medications for every minor ailment and symptom. Technically, 

we are creating a toxic soup within our pet’s body. Do you have any clue 

what is happening inside your pet’s body? Have you ever had a drug or 

food reaction? Your pet can’t tell you what is going on. 

It is imperative that we need to get all these harmful chemicals out 

of our pets’ bodies on a regular basis and limit their initial introduction. 

Research and consult with a natural health provider, whether a 

naturopath, homeopathic or nutritional and herbal specialist. Since are 

pets are experiencing a daily assault as we all are, the effort to avoid and 

eliminate these toxins is paramount. 

We have discovered and advanced food, herbs and botanicals that 

will not only aid the body’s detoxification efforts, but also rebuild the 

system with micronutrients and antioxidants. It’s truly a gift that we 

have rediscovered these foods in nature that will correct the manmade 

mistakes that are flooding our environment. Plants such as Milk Thistle, 

Chlorella, Dandelion, Spirulina, Wheat Grass, Moringa, and so many 

more have proven themselves as the natural fighters to save our pets. 

A balanced approach is to limit as many toxins as possible from our 

pets. Detoxify on a daily basis with the proper foods and build their immune 

system with appropriate clean diets, clean water and a clean environment. 

Our pets CAN live longer healthier lives and we are here to help.
