Style Magazine - August 2021

The past 10 days I’ve been on a strict seafood diet. My family is traveling down the Oregon Coast, which means we’re determined to devour as much clam chowder and fish & chips as we can. Is it just me, or do road trips beckon you to eat more (a lot more) and worry less? Besides the lighthouses, stunning scenery, and cool coastal air, the seafood around these parts is reason enough to return. Luckily, going on an Oregon vacay isn’t necessary to snag an award-winning bowl of chowdah or fresh-caught crab with all the fixin’s. Our region has plenty of mouthwatering fish dishes—inspired from all cuisines and corners of the globe—that are sure to have you hooked. Turn to “Seafood Spectacular” on page 57 for over 31 of our favorites, including a stunning seafood platter for two, sticky-sweet honey walnut prawns, and an indulgent lobster risotto that’ll leave you oohing, aahing, and wondering why you didn’t discover it sooner. Something else I wish I discovered sooner? Backpacking. My husband and I went on our first foray earlier this summer, and—even though our meals were less than luxurious—the experience of wandering where the Wi-Fi was weak (actually, nonexistent), camping without another soul in sight, and witnessing the wonders of the night sky has me eager to explore more. If you, too, are interested in going off grid but clueless where to start, check out “Walk in the Woods” (page 42) for 13 backpacking must-haves and some beginner-friendly areas to explore, then turn to page 98 for 5 astronomical events happening this month like the “stellar” Perseids meteor shower from August 11-13. What else is tucked into these glossy print pages? A roundup of must-reads from accomplished area authors (“Book Club” on page 24); a guide to helping your kiddos return to the classroom (“Back-to-School Rules” on page 36); and 5 essential experiences in Edinburgh, Scotland (page 78), where I hear the seafood—particularly the cullen skink (smoked haddock soup)—is seriously scrumptious. Cheers! —Megan megan@stylemg.com @meggoeggowaffle

The past 10 days I’ve been<br />

on a strict seafood diet. My<br />

family is traveling down the<br />

Oregon Coast, which means<br />

we’re determined to devour<br />

as much clam chowder and<br />

fish & chips as we can. Is it<br />

just me, or do road trips beckon you to eat more<br />

(a lot more) and worry less?<br />

So far, our favorite spot was in Newport at<br />

an unassuming establishment on Highway 101<br />

called South Beach Fish Market. Luckily, the<br />

line out the door moved fairly fast, and the place<br />

proved to be busy for a reason. Their chowder<br />

was thick, perfectly seasoned, and packed to<br />

the gills with fresh-caught clams; while the light,<br />

crispy coating on the firm, flaky fish paired<br />

perfectly with our Rogue Colossal Claude<br />

Imperial IPAs. Based on the fact that our twoyear-old<br />

inhaled almost half the chips—she’s a<br />

French fry fanatic—those clearly were a win, too.<br />

Besides the lighthouses, stunning scenery,<br />

and cool coastal air, the seafood around these parts is reason enough to return.<br />

Luckily, going on an Oregon vacay isn’t necessary to snag an award-winning bowl of<br />

chowdah or fresh-caught crab with all the fixin’s. Our region has plenty of mouthwatering fish<br />

dishes—inspired from all cuisines and corners of the globe—that are sure to have you hooked.<br />

Turn to “Seafood Spectacular” on page 57 for over 31 of our favorites, including a stunning<br />

seafood platter for two, sticky-sweet honey walnut prawns, and<br />

“Being kind<br />

is always<br />

more<br />

important<br />

than being<br />

right.”<br />

some beginner-friendly areas to explore, then turn to page<br />

“stellar” Perseids meteor shower from <strong>August</strong> 11-13.<br />

return to the classroom (“Back-to-School Rules” on page 36);<br />

and 5 essential experiences in Edinburgh, Scotland (page<br />

78), where I hear the seafood—particularly the cullen skink<br />

(smoked haddock soup)—is seriously scrumptious. Cheers!<br />

literally, and figuratively, turned<br />

into a hotbed for curiosity. One<br />

silver lining of the situation?<br />

The surplus of treasures that<br />

the waters: bridges, rock walls,<br />

In this month’s “The Road Beat”<br />

review. “A luxury, decently priced,<br />

seriously good-looking SUV that<br />

does lots well but rarely anything<br />

amazing” is just a sneak peak of<br />

what he has to say about it.<br />

walk, run, and/or hike fundraiser whose goal<br />

was to bring awareness to domestic violence<br />

and raise funds to help those affected by<br />

it. In total, the group raised $1,877 for The<br />

Center for Violence-Free Relationships’<br />

Second-Generation Program and the<br />

Hands4Hope Education Program.<br />

According to a recently released article by<br />

U.S. News & World Report, Placer County<br />

ranks 35th (the highest in California) and El<br />

Dorado County 284th on a list of the “500<br />

Healthiest Communities” nationwide. The<br />

rankings were based on factors like public<br />

health, equity, education, and infrastructure.<br />

THE CLASS<br />

4 A+ Teachers<br />

by TARA MENDANHA<br />

Amid the excitement of back-to-school<br />

month, we’re taking a moment to cheer the<br />

champions of classrooms: teachers. Here are<br />

some of the most hard-working, dedicated,<br />

and creative among them.<br />

Daniela<br />

Solley<br />

6th<br />

Grade<br />

English<br />

Teacher<br />

at Glen<br />

Edwards<br />

Middle<br />

School,<br />

Lincoln<br />

A<br />

business major in college, Daniela Solley<br />

struggled to find macroeconomics and<br />

taxation interesting. That’s when a friend<br />

suggested she change her major to education. “I<br />

instantly loved my new classes and when placed<br />

in a classroom for field work, I knew I was in the<br />

right place,” she says.<br />

Armed with a Master of Education in Curriculum<br />

and Instruction from Portland State University,<br />

Solley moved to the Western Placer Unified School<br />

District in 2003 and has worn many hats since—<br />

from elementary and middle school teacher to<br />

assistant principal and principal. She currently<br />

serves on the Leadership Team, Positive Behavioral<br />

Intervention and Supports Committee, as the<br />

English Department Curriculum Lead, Confidence<br />

Club Advisor, and as the newest girls’ golf coach<br />

at Lincoln High School. She’s also been an Area<br />

3 Writing Project teacher consultant since 2007<br />

and devised the two-sided writer’s notebook,<br />

which has helped countless teachers and students.<br />

What’s more, Solley was selected as the <strong>2021</strong><br />

Placer County Teacher of the Year, Middle School<br />

Teacher of the Year, and Western Placer Unified<br />

K-8 Teacher of the Year.<br />

Describe yourself and your teaching style. I’m<br />

focused, organized, and flexible with a heart<br />

of empathy and patience. My teaching style is<br />

student-centered. As soon as students enter the<br />

door they are warmly welcomed, seen, heard, and<br />

respected.<br />

What are your hopes for your students? I hope<br />

they see their strengths, develop confidence in<br />

their abilities, and are willing to take chances to<br />

learn from mistakes/failures. Along with selfadvocacy,<br />

I hope students leave with a few golden<br />

nuggets to carry with them in the years to come.<br />

What's the biggest lesson you've learned so far?<br />

Balance. As educators, we tend to try and be all<br />

things to all people, which is unrealistic and<br />

unhealthy. I remind myself I can only do the best I<br />

can with the time and resources I have and accept<br />

that it is good enough.<br />

Part of your day: Greeting students at the<br />

dinner with my husband.<br />

Way to unwind: Lots of golf, listening<br />

to vinyl while cooking dinner, pedaling on the<br />

stationary bike, and reading/writing.<br />

Rachel Stewart<br />

Special Education Teacher,<br />

Transition Program at<br />

Woodcreek High School,<br />

Roseville<br />

W<br />

hen Rachel Stewart got a fullride<br />

scholarship for basketball<br />

to UC Berkeley, her goal was to<br />

become a child psychologist. So, what<br />

changed? In her final semester, she<br />

became a teacher’s assistant for an<br />

adaptive PE teacher and got to work<br />

with a student with spina bifida. “I<br />

loved seeing his infectious smile as he<br />

let his body float carefree in the pool.<br />

He was my first experience working<br />

with students with disabilities and I<br />

loved every minute,” she shares.<br />

After graduating, Stewart moved back<br />

to Roseville and became a substitute<br />

teacher for students with disabilities.<br />

“I saw the light in their eyes as they<br />

attempted to make connections and<br />

thought, ‘How lucky am I to be in their<br />

lives?’ That thought…motivates me<br />

daily. I am beyond blessed,” she says.<br />

Eventually, Stewart became a<br />

basketball coach and special<br />

education teacher. She currently<br />

teaches transition-age special<br />

education students and helps<br />

coordinate Unified Sports. As of this<br />

past year, she’s also assistant athletic<br />

director at Woodcreek High School.<br />

Describe yourself and your teaching<br />

style. I teach independence and<br />

self-growth at the highest level<br />

through love, care, and support. Our<br />

classroom is safe, welcoming, loving,<br />

fun, and engaging.<br />

What are your hopes for your<br />

students? My students’ motto is<br />

“Our potential is LIMITLESS,” and it<br />

is this motto that drives my vision<br />

for teaching and maintaining high<br />

expectations academically, socially,<br />

behaviorally, and emotionally.<br />

What's the biggest lesson you've<br />

learned so far? When I first started<br />

teaching students with emotional<br />

disturbances, I quickly learned<br />

valuable lessons. I learned how to<br />

sit still, listen, and allow for silence<br />

and emotional release no matter how<br />

hard it was.<br />

Favorites<br />

Teaching tool/<br />

resource: My students love<br />

posting videos for educational<br />

questions on Flipgrid.<br />

Quote: “You never fail until<br />

you stop trying.” It reminds me<br />

of my dad’s endless support.<br />

Part of your day: Seeing<br />

my students’ smiling faces<br />

followed by coming home to<br />

my wife.<br />

Way to unwind: Driving<br />

A<br />

s a child, Valerie Owens spent<br />

hours in her room lining up<br />

dolls and “teaching” them how to<br />

read and spell. It’s no wonder then<br />

that she got her master’s degree in<br />

Valerie Owens<br />

Kindergarten & 1st Grade Teacher at T heodore Judah<br />

Elementary School, Folsom<br />

“What inspires me most are the<br />

conversations we have as a class<br />

throughout the year where you see<br />

students learning life lessons—like<br />

honesty, empathy, and kindness—and<br />

putting them into action in class, at<br />

lunch, or on the playground,” she says.<br />

Describe yourself and your teaching<br />

style. My teaching style is largely<br />

filtered through the lens of: "How<br />

would I want my own child to<br />

experience this lesson?"—whether<br />

it be academic or otherwise. I’m a<br />

huge believer in Gardner's Theory of<br />

Multiple Intelligences—the belief that<br />

each human has their own unique<br />

learning strengths and styles, and that<br />

as a teacher, it is my goal to build a<br />

relationship with each student and<br />

learn how they each learn best.<br />

What are your hopes for your students?<br />

I want each of them to leave my<br />

classroom knowing they are worthy<br />

and loved just as they are; that being<br />

kind is always more important than<br />

being right; and that the brain and<br />

bravery are muscles—the more you use<br />

them, the stronger they become!<br />

What's the biggest lesson you've<br />

learned so far? From my students,<br />

I’ve learned that family is more than<br />

just who we’re related to. I love my<br />

students deeply and unconditionally.<br />

I’ve also learned that children learn<br />

best when they know they’re loved<br />

and valued. From my coworkers, I’ve<br />

learned that we are best when we<br />

work together.<br />

Larry Bryant<br />

Science Teacher, Science Department Head,<br />

& Peer Advocate Advisor at Golden Sierra<br />

Junior Senior High School, Garden Valley<br />

L<br />

arry Bryant first dabbled in marketing<br />

and distribution for a pet food<br />

company after getting his degree in<br />

biology from UC Santa Cruz. Upon hiring<br />

young college students, Bryant opened his<br />

office after hours to enable them to finish<br />

their schoolwork on office computers. “I<br />

liked helping them and realized I enjoyed<br />

teaching and missed science, so I went<br />

back to school and got my teaching<br />

credential,” he says.<br />

Ever since, Bryant’s focus has been on<br />

the youth. He’s even taken classes in<br />

youth development, neurology, trauma<br />

informed teaching, and adverse childhood<br />

experiences—all of which he employs<br />

as advisor at the Peer Advocate Program<br />

where student advocates help other<br />

students resolve problems, manage conflict,<br />

and deal with stress and emotions.<br />

Favorites<br />

Teaching tool/resource: I love sharing my<br />

wildlife, astronomy, and geology photos for science<br />

lessons. It creates a personal connection to concepts<br />

beyond the classroom.<br />

Quote: “One child, one teacher, one book, one pen can<br />

change the world.”—Malala Yousafzai<br />

Part of your day: Starting it with my peer<br />

advocates. Their energy and spirit keep me going all day.<br />

Way to unwind: Strategic board games and card<br />

games that challenge me to think critically and plan<br />

carefully. I also enjoy photography, especially of wildlife<br />

and unique geology/landscapes.<br />

Bryant has also led students on trips to<br />

Mongolia, Russia, and Costa Rica, and<br />

has worked for almost 20 years with<br />

Watershed Education Summit where local<br />

high school students do hands-on science<br />

and water quality studies for the El Dorado<br />

National Forest.<br />

Describe yourself and your teaching style.<br />

I’m a nerdy science guy. I especially love<br />

astronomy and biology. As for my teaching<br />

style, I'm interested in what my students<br />

like to do and have to say. I try to connect<br />

science to their lives and interests.<br />

What are your hopes for your students? That<br />

they become happy and healthy adults—<br />

physically, mentally, socially, and emotionally.<br />

What's the biggest lesson you've learned<br />

so far? That everyone has a story and if<br />

you take the time to listen, you’ll find many<br />

amazing people. Over the years, I’ve learned<br />

as much from my students as they have<br />

from me.<br />

The Total Package<br />

6 BOTTLE LABELS WE LOVE<br />

by NELLY KISLYANKA<br />

When it comes to beer and wine, what’s on the inside<br />

really counts, but there’s no denying eye-catching labels<br />

are what initially lure you in. A few local visionaries<br />

create packaging that’s not only informational but<br />

artistic, too—think bold lettering, distinct designs, and<br />

pretty pictures with soulful stories. Keep reading for a<br />

look behind six labels we love.<br />

Pinot Meunier, for example, was made<br />

with organic fruit sourced in Sonoma County by<br />

Eric’s brother James. For their Zinfandel, Emily<br />

and Eric chose to feature their nephew, Zander,<br />

because they enjoyed the alliteration of Zander<br />

Zinfandel. Eric’s favorite portrait, however, is his<br />

grandmother gracing the Dolores Pinot Noir. “I<br />

think it really captures not only her image but also<br />

her personality,” he says.<br />

Once Eric has decided what family member to<br />

paint for a bottle, he starts his artistic process<br />

by browsing old photo albums and digital artwork<br />

to create a vision. Next comes Eric’s greatest<br />

hurdle—starting to paint. But once he does, it<br />

becomes a form of meditation to him. “It helps<br />

me release my creative energy,” he says. Eric<br />

exclusively paints his label portraits using oils<br />

on wine barrel caps, except for some of the<br />

original labels that came from older paintings<br />

using mixed media. Once the painting is complete,<br />

it’s photographed and handed off to Emily, who<br />

designs a coordinating back-of-bottle label<br />

complying with TTB (Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and<br />

Trade Bureau) guidelines and sends it off to their<br />

label printer.<br />

Chateau Davell’s family and friends gather<br />

quarterly to hand-bottle every wine—lovingly<br />

filling, corking, and waxing each one. Their final<br />

step is adhering the portraits to them. According<br />

to Eric, “Emily likes to complain about how tedious<br />

these days are, but she secretly loves spending a<br />

day laughing and catching up with our loved ones.”<br />

3020 Vista Tierra Drive, Camino, 530-644-2016,<br />

chateaudavell.com<br />

Chateau Davell<br />

The labels of Chateau Davell’s wines<br />

are a physical representation of their<br />

guiding principle: family. In fact, owners<br />

Emily and Eric Hays chose to name<br />

their inaugural wine after their firstborn<br />

child Charlotte. When she was<br />

born, Eric painted her newborn portrait<br />

on a wine barrel cap. When it came time<br />

to create a label for Charlotte’s Cuvée,<br />

they chose to feature her portrait as<br />

a loving tribute. Since then, every label<br />

has been adorned with one of Eric’s<br />

paintings.<br />

“There’s usually a correlation<br />

between a wine and the family<br />

member on the label,” says Eric. The<br />

Findleton Estate Winery<br />

A vineyard owned by a family of artists is bound<br />

to forgo bland labels and produce exquisite works<br />

of art for their wines. Pamela, the matriarch of<br />

the Findleton family, is the artist responsible for<br />

the stunning labels that adorn her namesake<br />

winery’s bottles. Working with watercolors, she<br />

creates a custom piece for every bottle. “Each<br />

painting tells a story and has a relationship with<br />

the varietal we pair it with,” Pamela says. Her<br />

personal favorite, 20 years and 36 varietals<br />

later, still remains the Carignon label—“a spiritual<br />

collaboration” with her late grandmother who<br />

was also an artist. While cleaning out her artist<br />

studio, Pamela found an old painting created<br />

by her grandmother, only to have it crumble in<br />

her hands when she picked it up. “Saddened at<br />

the loss, I immediately glued it to a canvas and<br />

started painting using water media.” This piece,<br />

still featuring her grandmother’s signature beside<br />

her own, now adorns the Findleton Carignon.<br />

After a painting is selected for a particular<br />

wine, a high-quality image of it is sent to Pamela’s<br />

daughter Jeanetta, who has a background in<br />

fashion and graphic design. Jeanetta places it<br />

on the signature dark green Findleton label and<br />

Loomis Basin Brewing Company<br />

The original labels that graced Loomis Basin’s bottles<br />

emulated fruit packaging labels—a nod to the city’s<br />

history as an orchard town. As the brewery has grown<br />

and switched to cans, however, they’ve updated their<br />

labels, holding tight to their roots by keeping the frame<br />

border, reminiscent of fruit crate labels from the turn<br />

of the century.<br />

Having worked with a variety of designers over the<br />

years, the brewery recently decided to try their hand at<br />

original designs with a collaboration between brewers<br />

Ben Allgood and Brady Jones and taproom manager<br />

Clancy McCrory. The process has been an adventure for<br />

these first-time designers, requiring them to test their<br />

creative juices and pick up new skills like Photoshop and<br />

Illustrator. They have enjoyed digging into original designs<br />

and revamping them for current use, as well as coming<br />

up with new puns for the bottom row of text found on<br />

every bottle. Something else the design team considers a<br />

must-have for every bottle? Color. “We like our labels to<br />

be bright, bold, and illustrated!” says Clancy.<br />

Loomis Basin designs their labels by first selecting a<br />

central focus feature, such as the throwback ’90s shapes<br />

found on their Allgood IPA. In some cases, Clancy even<br />

draws her own central feature, such as the sword-wielding<br />

woman on the Nemesis Imperial IPA. Next, they decide<br />

on a coordinating background. For Clancy, “It’s really<br />

incredible to see a sketched-out design come to life.”<br />

Charles Spinetta<br />

Winery<br />

Charles Spinetta has always<br />

enjoyed wildlife art. After<br />

meeting accomplished wildlife<br />

artist and graphic designer Joe<br />

Garcia on a hunting trip, he commissioned Garcia to<br />

create the winery’s first art labels, which also became<br />

the first full-color wine labels in the U.S.<br />

Each label, either designed by Joe Garcia (joegarcia.<br />

com) or Sherrie Russell Meline (wingbeat.com), features<br />

wildlife in a different setting unique to Northern<br />

California wildlands. “Our labels evoke memories of<br />

enjoying wild spaces, and each painting shows an<br />

appreciation for wildlife,” says Charles’ son Anthony.<br />

The artists begin their process with a sketch and<br />

then paint the animal—its pose, gaze, and the setting—<br />

with their choice of colors and technique, but it’s<br />

Charles who chooses which image belongs on which<br />

wine label. The artist’s images are then handed off<br />

to Paragon Label, who have won numerous printing<br />

awards for said labels.<br />

Charles Spinetta’s labels are works of art in muted<br />

colors and intricate detail. Due to their<br />

popularity, the Spinetta family have also<br />

screened the paintings onto T-shirts. “We’ve<br />

[also] issued a limited-edition print for each<br />

of our wine labels, and they seem to pop up<br />

everywhere. Walking into a restaurant, office,<br />

or lodge and seeing one of our label prints on<br />

the wall is always a treat,” says Anthony.<br />

Lone Buffalo Vineyards<br />

When Phil Maddux told his wife Jill that he was<br />

launching his passion for winemaking into a<br />

micro-brewery and that she was responsible for<br />

naming the wines, she was excited to bring their<br />

story to life. Jill told Phil they weren’t going to<br />

have “boring” names that only stated what the wine was, but<br />

instead names that would reflect the vineyard, buffalo, and the<br />

wine itself. This determination to tell a story is embedded in all<br />

that Lone Buffalo Vineyards does, especially their labels.<br />

The original Lone Buffalo labels boasted a modern design,<br />

but 10 years into the vineyard’s success, the Madduxes decided<br />

they needed new labels more representative of the vineyard.<br />

In collaboration with designer Darcey Self (galfridaycreative.<br />

com), who stayed with the family to get a feel for what they’re<br />

all about, they chose to keep their buffalo logo and bring<br />

Native American inspiration to the labels. Nicknamed “Buffalo”<br />

for his burly build and collection of buffalo art, Phil visited a<br />

Santa Fe art gallery with Jill at the start of their venture and<br />

were stopped in their tracks by artwork featuring a buffalo<br />

walking “backwards” (from left to right), striking Jill as a<br />

symbol of holding back time. Jill knew then that this buffalo<br />

was the perfect logo for their vineyard—especially considering<br />

Phil’s love for history, traditional winemaking techniques, and<br />

naturalist lifestyle, and Jill’s studies in cultural anthropology.<br />

Every bottle of Lone Buffalo’s wine has three components:<br />

their trademark buffalo, a unique name, and a Native American<br />

symbol. For example, their signature wine, a Rhône blend, is<br />

named Where the Buffalo Roam and features a lodge. The lodge<br />

symbol, which looks like a wagon wheel, stands for “permanent<br />

home” in Native American culture. The Madduxes found it<br />

fitting for their signature blend, because they had uprooted the<br />

vineyard from South Auburn in 2013. Settling in North Auburn,<br />

where they had more land to expand their operations, Lone<br />

Buffalo Vineyards found its permanent home.<br />

New Glory Craft Brewery<br />

What steers New Glory<br />

Craft Brewery’s design and<br />

marketing team when creating<br />

fresh labels is the company’s<br />

fun and lighthearted culture.<br />

Within their designs, they achieve this through bright colors<br />

and abstract patterns.<br />

One of the team’s design goals is to create labels that catch<br />

the customer’s eye when perusing shelves of beer. “We want<br />

our cans to be Instagramable and expressive,” says marketing<br />

manager Stephanie Lewis. The hope is that each can is easily<br />

recognizable as a New Glory brew. The team is careful to avoid<br />

customer confusion amongst the bold designs though; the last<br />

thing they want are labels that force customers to hunt for<br />

information about what is within the can, says Stephanie. By<br />

keeping a few key design elements—like logo placement, color<br />

blocking, and type size—consistent across all designs, they<br />

achieve both clarity and branding.<br />

To create new labels, the design and marketing team<br />

meets with the brewery’s production team to understand the<br />

brew’s flavor profiles, special processes, and the brewing<br />

team’s inspiration. With this information in hand, they can<br />

create labels that accurately represent the beer. Since 2016,<br />

they’ve collaboratively created 300 labels, with many more<br />

in the works.<br />

disease and damage that make repairs necessary.<br />

At Aloha Family Dental our focus is not to fix problems as they develop, but to prevent<br />

them. We want to keep your teeth in the healthy, natural state they were born to be<br />

in. Our goal, is for you to have a healthy smile-for life.<br />

Everyone wants to have a smile that they’re confident in. Understanding that, has<br />

allowed Dr. Ricardo Macasaet, DDS and Dr. Christopher Macasaet, DDS to provide<br />

amazing results, while treating every patient as a new member of their family.<br />

Make the Grade<br />

5 BACK-TO-SCHOOL RULES<br />

after more than a year "is going to be really<br />

awkward." Lily Beach, 13, entering eighth grade<br />

in Roseville, is an honors math student who<br />

worries distance learning wasn’t rigorous<br />

enough “to let me stay in advanced classes.”<br />

by LINDA HOLDERNESSCue the cheers. California schools are<br />

finally opening. And with the good<br />

news, pandemic-weary students and<br />

their parents welcome a return to<br />

normal. But don’t breathe a sigh of<br />

relief just yet. More challenges lie<br />

ahead. The new normal won’t look like the old,<br />

and the changes, even if for the better, may be<br />

stressful, too. After a year and a half of adapting<br />

to distance learning and missing friends, students<br />

will need to readjust once more.<br />

Consider: The time of Covid was more than 20%<br />

of a seven-year-old’s life and 10% of a 15-yearolds.<br />

Most students look different now and<br />

may have lost confidence in their social skills<br />

or worry they’ve fallen behind academically.<br />

Akkshey Vikram Raj, a Folsom 12-year-old,<br />

missed sixth grade, the year he would have<br />

transitioned to a new school with multiple<br />

classes. "I’m going to be lost all over the place,"<br />

he says, adding that seeing his friends again<br />

The pandemic caught us by surprise, but this time<br />

parents can plan. These tips from local therapists<br />

and educators may help.<br />

1 Encourage your child to talk about concerns<br />

then listen reflectively, urges Lauren Simas, a<br />

licensed marriage and family therapist in Folsom.<br />

Respond with statements that show you<br />

understand your child’s emotions—"So you feel …"<br />

or "You’re wondering if …"—without adding your<br />

own perspective. Reflective listening offers<br />

empathy without judgment and helps your child<br />

clarify conflicting feelings.<br />

2 Reassure your child she is safe. Young people<br />

are least likely to catch the virus. With<br />

precautions, like masks, which are still required<br />

in school buildings, and measures to combat the<br />

virus—powerful disinfectants, air filtration, hand<br />

sanitizers, distancing—the chance your child will<br />

become sick at school is very low. The good news<br />

is there is almost no risk out of doors so masks<br />

aren’t needed at recess.<br />

3 Let your child know they will be<br />

fine academically. Even though<br />

students may have missed some<br />

information last year, they will catch<br />

up. Placer County uses an accelerated<br />

learning program that research shows<br />

works. With accelerated learning, the<br />

schools keep kids at grade level no<br />

matter what they missed. "We see a<br />

high degree of achievement with<br />

acceleration rather than pausing for<br />

remedial instruction," says Placer<br />

County Superintendent of Schools<br />

Gayle Garbolino-Mojica. "We will make<br />

sure we are able to bridge any gap the<br />

pandemic may have created."<br />

4 Help your children acclimate<br />

gradually. "We haven’t been in<br />

social situations for a long time, in kid<br />

time—make sure you don’t overconnect<br />

them," says Nancy Ryan,<br />

licensed marriage and family therapist<br />

and owner of Relationship Therapy<br />

Center in Roseville and Fair Oaks.<br />

“<br />

We haven’t<br />

been in<br />

social<br />

situations<br />

for a long<br />

time, in kid<br />

time—make<br />

sure you<br />

don’t overconnect<br />

them.<br />

”<br />

Also, with parents and children both<br />

working from home, children have<br />

gotten used to being with their<br />

parents and they like it, even if they<br />

pretend they don’t, Ryan says.<br />

Continuing family time is valuable as<br />

the kids readjust.<br />

5 Be alert to signs of anxiety.<br />

Watch for isolation, irritability,<br />

difficulty sleeping, lack of motivation,<br />

and concerns about safety. To help<br />

ease stress, Ryan suggests boxbreathing:<br />

Breathe in for four counts,<br />

hold four counts, breathe out four<br />

counts, then hold again for four<br />

counts. Repeat five times. Older<br />

students may be helped by visualizing<br />

a beach or field of flowers.<br />

“There is great excitement in the<br />

school community to resume ‘normal’<br />

operation,” says Garbolino-Mojica.<br />

“We are working hard this summer to<br />

make sure we do just that.”<br />

STRETCHING<br />

PRE-HIKE<br />

STRETCHES<br />

Stretching is<br />

a key factor<br />

in preventing<br />

injuries. Here<br />

are a few easy<br />

options before<br />

hitting the trails.<br />

Leg Swings.<br />

Lock one leg,<br />

hold onto<br />

something for<br />

balance, and<br />

swing the other<br />

leg.<br />

Benefits:<br />

Stretches your<br />

hamstrings and<br />

engages the<br />

quadriceps.<br />

Calf Stretch.<br />

From standing,<br />

step one leg<br />

back into a lunge<br />

position. Bend<br />

your front knee<br />

and straighten<br />

your back leg,<br />

keeping your<br />

back heel on<br />

the ground. The<br />

more distance<br />

between your<br />

legs, the deeper<br />

the stretch.<br />

Benefits: Warms<br />

up and stretches<br />

calves.<br />

Services or products you offer: Think Big Little<br />

People is a thoughtfully designed, organic, smallbatch<br />

line of children's clothing borne of the idea<br />

that “little people” are naturally “big thinkers.”<br />

To design clothes that kids love, they must be<br />

comfortable and able to stand up to the rigors of<br />

childhood.<br />

What you enjoy most about your profession: I’ve<br />

always enjoyed working with children and love<br />

that I can use my creativity to design pieces kids<br />

love to wear.<br />

being a volunteer summer camp counselor at the<br />

El Dorado Hills Community Services District.<br />

Favorite food: Anything from Karen's Bakery<br />

(though I might tell you her apple walnut muffin is<br />

my absolute favorite!).<br />

Last big purchase: As a family, we've really been<br />

conscience of living a more eco-friendly lifestyle.<br />

For us, that means consuming less, so we haven't<br />

made any large purchases for quite some time.<br />

When not working, you can be found: At the<br />

river or exploring any of the beautiful, quaint,<br />

and unique downtowns Northern California has<br />

to offer.<br />

ASK THE<br />

EXPERTS<br />

by EMILY PETER-COREY<br />

Q: WHAT ARE SOME OF THE<br />

LONG-TERM BENEFITS OF<br />

GETTING REGULAR MASSAGES?<br />

A: Relaxation is one of the most<br />

loved benefits of massage therapy;<br />

long-term, however, your wellbeing<br />

is improved through regular<br />

massage by reducing physical and<br />

emotional stress. What’s more, it<br />

provides relief from depression<br />

and anxiety by promoting the<br />

release of dopamine and serotonin.<br />

Long-term massage therapy also<br />

relieves muscle pain; eases joint<br />

pain by increasing blood flow to<br />

sore and stiff joints; and improves<br />

mobility, posture, and your health.<br />

Regular massage therapy is<br />

beneficial to support a healthy,<br />

active lifestyle.<br />

Q: HOW OFTEN SHOULD I GET<br />

FAMILY PORTRAITS DONE?<br />

A: I encourage families with<br />

children under 10 years old—<br />

especially those with babies and<br />

toddlers—to book twice a year,<br />

so they can reflect upon how<br />

much (and how quickly!) their<br />

kiddos change over the years. The<br />

majority book in late summer or<br />

early fall for holiday cards, but I’m<br />

able to accommodate whatever<br />

works best for each family.<br />

Retreat to Bliss<br />

WHOLE HOME RENOVATION<br />

by KOURTNEY JASON<br />

B<br />

ona Sinor, founder of<br />

Ironhorse Interior<br />

Design (ih-id.com),<br />

has nearly two decades of<br />

design experience, including<br />

home remodels and<br />

redesigns. Since launching<br />

her full-service firm, Sinor<br />

has been involved in every<br />

project—working closely with<br />

clients to achieve their<br />

desired goals.<br />

Focusing on design<br />

excellence and outstanding<br />

service (much of her business<br />

is from repeat customers and<br />

referrals), Ironhorse Interior<br />

Design’s high-end residential<br />

project services include<br />

conceptual architectural<br />

“<br />

We more than doubled our money and created a space<br />

that an active family of five is now enjoying.<br />

”<br />

layouts; new construction<br />

(exterior and interior);<br />

3D and hand renderings;<br />

custom designs, furniture,<br />

and accessories; conceptual<br />

landscape design, and more.<br />

“The collaboration of genuine<br />

hands-on hard work and the luxury<br />

of high-end style is the philosophy<br />

that every one of our projects is<br />

based on,” she says.<br />

For a recent home renovation<br />

project, she and her company<br />

flipped this house in a fourmonth<br />

renovation (after the<br />

design was finalized) with a<br />

$100,000 budget. “Our design<br />

goals—to develop a high-level<br />

design style and make a nice<br />

profit—were achieved,” Sinor<br />

The number<br />

one<br />

question<br />

homeowners<br />

should ask<br />

themselves<br />

is where<br />

they will<br />

be living<br />

during the<br />

renovation.<br />

“<br />

”<br />

says. “The house sold for more<br />

than a home down the street that<br />

was 1,000 square feet larger.”<br />

For this flip, the kitchen was<br />

fully renovated. And with such a<br />

big project, problems are likely to<br />

occur. “The most challenging issue<br />

that arose was moving plumbing<br />

in the concrete slab so we could<br />

put the sink and dishwasher in the<br />

island,” Sinor says. “It cost around<br />

$6,000, but it was money well<br />

spent to achieve the layout.” As a<br />

solution to save money elsewhere,<br />

they used the existing kitchen<br />

cabinets and repurposed them.<br />

Additional projects included<br />

renovating the bathroom finishes<br />

and adding faux beams in the<br />

great room. All new wood flooring,<br />

window treatments, and fresh<br />

paint and texture were also added<br />

throughout the house.<br />

While this was an in-house<br />

project for Ironhorse Interior<br />

Design, the team was very happy<br />

with the outcome and finished<br />

It’s important<br />

to have your<br />

team lined<br />

up prior to<br />

starting any<br />

construction.<br />

“<br />

”<br />

home. “We more than doubled our<br />

money and created a space that an<br />

active family of five is now enjoying.”<br />

If you’re thinking about your own<br />

home renovation, Sinor has two<br />

tips for all homeowners to think<br />

about. “The number one question<br />

homeowners should ask themselves<br />

is where they will be living during<br />

the renovation. Dust, noise, and other<br />

inconveniences can add stress to a<br />

household,” she says. “Although we<br />

take all precautions to make our<br />

renovations be as pleasant as possible,<br />

the fact is, there is no way around<br />

having to deal with these factors.”<br />

Having a plan is just as imperative,<br />

too. “It’s important to have your<br />

team lined up prior to starting any<br />

construction. Having a budget, a design,<br />

and a project calendar will ensure<br />

your remodel runs smoothly and your<br />

budget stays intact,” she says.<br />

Scallops call for delicate handling,<br />

and no one knows that better than<br />

Bacchus House Bistro. Their Fresh<br />

Day Boat Scallops are fine dining<br />

at its finest. Pan-seared to perfection,<br />

they’re served with a vibrant Meyer<br />

lemon beurre blanc on a bed of the<br />

restaurant’s signature risotto alongside<br />

organic micro greens.<br />

FUN FACT: Searing scallops enhances<br />

their sweetness and makes them a<br />

surefire match with chardonnay—of<br />

which Bacchus House has plenty.<br />

You may have heard seafood and cheese<br />

are an unsavory combo, but one bite of<br />

the Garlic Shrimp Pizza at Iron Horse<br />

Tavern and you’ll realize some rules are<br />

meant to be broken. The hand-crafted pie<br />

boasts a delightfully chewy crust with just<br />

enough crispness, plus parmesan cream<br />

sauce, fontina, chili flakes, cilantro, red<br />

onions, and the namesake garlic shrimp.<br />

For fans of fish and pizza, it’s a match<br />

made in foodie heaven.<br />

FUN FACT: In Italy, fish is a somewhat<br />

common pizza topping—particularly<br />

Italian tuna packed in olive oil, along<br />

with anchovies, shellfish, and shrimp.<br />

Folsom Palace’s Hong Kong-<strong>Style</strong><br />

Bird’s Nest is essentially a work of art. A<br />

fried noodle “bowl” is loaded with seafood<br />

(scallops, prawns, calamari, and crab meat)<br />

and vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, snow<br />

peas, chayote, carrots, shiitake mushrooms,<br />

celery, and green onions)—all flavored with<br />

aromatic garlic and ginger and tossed in a<br />

house-made white wine sauce.<br />

FUN FACT: Bird’s nests are usually served at<br />

high-end Chinese restaurants specializing in<br />

Cantonese cuisine and may also be seen at<br />

traditional 10-course Chinese banquets for<br />

weddings or other special occasions.<br />

Hot days call for cool dishes, like the<br />

refreshing El Rey Ceviche—served<br />

tostada-style with shrimp, cucumbers,<br />

onions, cilantro, and tomatoes in a<br />

citrus marinade—at Granite Bay’s El<br />

Rey. With three to a serving, it’s the<br />

perfect shareable and satisfies without<br />

completely stuffing you.<br />

FUN FACT: Ceviche is a Latin American<br />

recipe for raw fish and seafood<br />

marinated in citrus juice (mainly lime<br />

and lemon). The juice’s acidity breaks<br />

down the protein in the fish and<br />

replicates the process of heat being<br />

applied to the meat.<br />

Cascada’s Camarones Sante Fe<br />

has all the celebratory flavors of our<br />

neighbors down south. Shrimp is<br />

sautéed with butter, garlic, and spicy<br />

Southwest seasonings, and sprinkled<br />

with parmesan cheese. This fiery<br />

fiesta is served with cilantro rice<br />

and vegetables (zucchini, snow peas,<br />

broccoli, and red bell peppers) for a<br />

non-boring nosh.<br />

FUN FACT: A decadent dinner calls for<br />

dessert, and Cascada has it all—from<br />

churros and cheesecake chimichangas<br />

to sopapillas and flan.<br />

Plank Craft Kitchen + Bar is still<br />

relatively new to the block, but their Cedar<br />

Plank Salmon guarantees they’re here<br />

to stay. A gorgeous fillet of North Atlantic<br />

salmon is cooked to perfection on a cedar<br />

plank, absorbing the flavors and moisture<br />

of the warmed wood. In case that isn’t<br />

enough flavor, the salmon is given a crust<br />

of Japanese panko crumbs, spicy chorizo<br />

sausage, Italian parsley, and tangy lemon<br />

zest, then drizzled with a buttery lemon<br />

beurre blanc. Served with your item of<br />

choice from Plank’s “Marketplace Sides”<br />

menu, you’re in for a memorable meal.<br />

FUN FACT: The Marketplace Sides menu<br />

features chilled, lighter fare, like an<br />

avocado, cherry tomato, and pine nut<br />

salad tossed in lime vinaigrette.<br />

Crispy Calamari is a perfect seafood<br />

starter—especially at Wally's Pizza<br />

Bar. Lightly battered and fried,<br />

allowing the flavor of the fish to shine,<br />

it's served with fresh-cut lemons and<br />

zesty marinara dipping sauce. Tender on<br />

the inside with a golden-brown crust,<br />

this must-order appetizer is always a<br />

crowd-pleaser.<br />

FUN FACT: Calamari is the Italian<br />

word for squid. It originated in the<br />

Mediterranean and quickly spread into<br />

North America as a popular deep-fried<br />

dish in the mid-'80s.<br />

Hisui Sushi’s Chirashi<br />

Don is a treat for the senses.<br />

Donburi is typically a rice<br />

bowl (akin to deconstructed<br />

sushi) and a serving of it<br />

promises the chef’s choicest<br />

fresh fish and complimentary<br />

accompaniments artfully<br />

placed over sushi rice.<br />

FUN FACT: Chirashi might<br />

sound like a poke bowl, but<br />

there’s a difference. Poke<br />

bowls tend to be one or<br />

two types of fish (tuna and<br />

salmon) marinated in a sauce<br />

and served on white rice,<br />

brown rice, or salad; chirashi<br />

has no sauce and uses several<br />

types of fish, including<br />

tuna, salmon, yellowtail, eel,<br />

shrimp, and roe.<br />

a refreshing Skuna Bay<br />

Salmon Tartare marinated<br />

in a citrus ginger marinade<br />

with capers, cucumbers,<br />

green onions, avocado, and<br />

atop a toasted baguette. It’s a<br />

perfect, not-too-heavy starter<br />

to prepare your palate for<br />

one (or more) of Heyday’s<br />

exceptional entrées.<br />

FUN FACT: Skuna Bay<br />

salmon is a sustainably<br />

farmed food that’s not only<br />

good for human health but<br />

kind to the health of the<br />

environment, too.<br />

Based on the beautiful hue and aroma of the<br />

Prawn Red Curry from Thai Paradise, you<br />

know you’re in for a treat before you even take a<br />

bite. Red chili curry paste gives the rich coconut<br />

milk base of this dish its eye-catching color, to<br />

which green beans, eggplant, bamboo, red bell<br />

peppers, and fresh Thai basil are added. Mixed<br />

into this medley are a generous portion of<br />

large prawns. Ladled over a soft bed of rice, it’s<br />

Thailand’s take on savory comfort food.<br />

FUN FACT: Thai Paradise’s co-owner and head<br />

chef, Jarunee Fleming, earned her culinary<br />

skills working in a five-star hotel in Bangkok.<br />

Soak up the suds at Bricks Eats<br />

& Drinks with their hearty Tuna<br />

Melt. Layered with cheddar, onions,<br />

savory house-made tuna salad, and<br />

a hefty helping of creamy avocado<br />

on grilled marble rye bread, it puts<br />

tinned tuna subs to shame and is<br />

the perfect midday meal—especially<br />

alongside one of the eatery’s<br />

seriously scrumptious salads or an<br />

order of sweet potato planks.<br />

FUN FACT: Instead of reservations,<br />

Bricks has a “fast pass” that allows<br />

you to get the first available table<br />

ahead of any walk-ins.<br />

The Macadamia Nut Crusted Pacific<br />

Halibut from Scott’s Seafood<br />

Roundhouse is an elegant dinner perfect<br />

on a night out. Beautifully flaky halibut<br />

is dressed in a crunchy macadamia nut<br />

crust, cooked to perfection, and finished<br />

with browned butter. Served alongside<br />

the fish are the season’s ripest veggies and<br />

the kitchen’s unusual but oh-so-satisfying<br />

coconut-cilantro rice topped with mango<br />

chutney—a savory condiment slow-cooked<br />

to sweet, spicy, and tangy perfection.<br />

The Cioppino from Visconti’s<br />

Ristorante takes fish stew to luxurious<br />

levels with top-tier seafood—calamari, jumbo<br />

prawns, New Zealand green-lipped mussels,<br />

and last but certainly not least, Day Boat<br />

scallops. The latter are nicknamed “jewels of<br />

the sea,” because being harvested by small<br />

fleets, packed on ice, and never treated with<br />

preservative chemicals guarantees the most<br />

delicate texture and flavor. The shellfish are<br />

prepared in an aromatic broth of white wine,<br />

garlic, Italian herbs and spices, and marinara<br />

reduction sauce, then served with salad and<br />

house-made garlic bread.<br />

FUN FACT: Legend has it that New<br />

Zealand green-lipped mussels are packed<br />

with health benefits and can even be<br />

found in supplement form.<br />

When you think of the coast, great<br />

seafood comes to mind, of course.<br />

The Coastal Rice from Mezcalito<br />

Oaxacan Cuisine invokes the best<br />

of coastal cuisine with fresh salmon,<br />

mussels, and prawns lavishly decorating<br />

soft rice. Fresh, seasonal veggies—like<br />

garlic, onions, tomatoes, spinach, and<br />

Fresno peppers (a mildly hot and smoky<br />

chili pepper)—are added then mixed<br />

with a touch of cream sauce. One<br />

bite and you’ll be transported to your<br />

favorite seaside bistro.<br />

FUN FACT: Oaxaca, one of the 32<br />

states that make up Mexico, is known<br />

bistro overlooking the vineyard<br />

piles tender Atlantic salmon (the<br />

4200 Wise Road, Lincoln, 916-543-0323,<br />

wisevillawinery.com<br />

Hawks—one of our region’s most wellreceived<br />

restaurants—has been at the<br />

forefront of farm-to-fork fare since opening<br />

in 2007. From plates that change based<br />

on what produce can be picked, to their<br />

chef’s immaculate attention to detail,<br />

and sophisticated-without-being-stuffy<br />

ambiance, it’s the perfect place to celebrate<br />

a special occasion and enjoy dishes like<br />

Wild Alaskan Halibut. Fresh-caught and<br />

butchered in-house, then skillfully seared<br />

and pan-roasted, it’s served with baby<br />

butter beans, roasted red peppers, and a<br />

rich Romesco sauce.<br />

FUN FACT: The largest flatfish within the<br />

flounder family, male halibuts typically won’t<br />

grow to be over 100 pounds whereas the<br />

females can live longer and grow to 600<br />

pounds or more.<br />

The Prawn Chow Fun from<br />

Lotus 8 is just that—FUN! Chow<br />

fun is a popular Cantonese stir-fried<br />

rice noodle, flat and wide in shape,<br />

with a delightfully chewy texture.<br />

Lotus 8 stir-fries their noodles in a<br />

sweet and savory brown sauce with<br />

crunchy bean sprouts and green<br />

onions, but the real fun of this dish<br />

are the large, fresh prawns.<br />

FUN FACT: Lotus 8 was strategically<br />

named by combining two traditional<br />

symbols of beauty and luck within<br />

Chinese culture—the lotus flower and<br />

the number 8.<br />

Relish Burger Bar wanted to bring<br />

some California flair to a Louisiana<br />

classic when creating their EDH Po’<br />

Boy. All-natural shrimp are dipped in<br />

seasoned tempura batter (lighter than<br />

most other batters because it contains no<br />

breadcrumbs, which means it requires<br />

less oil) and fried to a beautiful golden<br />

brown, then sandwiched in a roll with<br />

crunchy cilantro lime slaw, tart pickled<br />

jalapeños, and house-made roasted garlic<br />

aioli. This seafood sandwich is served with<br />

your choice of salad or French fries.<br />

Exploring Edinburgh<br />

5 ESSENTIAL EXPERIENCES<br />

by TOM MAILEY<br />

Edinburgh Castle<br />

It was February, pre-pandemic, and we didn’t<br />

know what to expect in Edinburgh, Scotland.<br />

To be honest, we picked this city (pronounced<br />

ED-in-burrah) as our first place ever to visit<br />

abroad because, well, an acquaintance owns a<br />

flat there and offered it at an off-season price<br />

we couldn’t refuse. Thus, winter weather kept<br />

us ducking in and out of doorways all week.<br />

Snow, wind, cloudbursts…we were hit by all<br />

of it, often all within minutes. But there is<br />

no bad weather, just bad gear, right? So, we<br />

came prepared, and the upside was crowds<br />

were light, lines were nil, and the pubs all felt<br />

that much warmer when we stepped inside.<br />

Our flat was in the “new<br />

town” part of Edinburgh<br />

(meaning it was built<br />

a mere two and half<br />

centuries ago, after<br />

the “old town” became<br />

impossibly overcrowded<br />

(more on that later). But<br />

we found both sections<br />

to be vibrant and incredibly walkable for anyone<br />

in reasonably good shape; we crushed our<br />

10,000 Fitbit steps every day we were there.<br />

Part of our pre-planning was to sketch out a<br />

game plan, and we were glad we did, especially<br />

since we were only there a week. We arrived<br />

with a good basic idea of Edinburgh (I’m a<br />

dork for history so did a pretty deep dive<br />

into the city’s rich and storied past; my wife<br />

researched shopping, dining, and modern points<br />

Edinburgh Castle<br />

Governor's House, aka Calton Jail<br />

Victoria Street, just off the Royal Mile<br />

of interest). Even though we knew<br />

what we wanted to see, do, and<br />

experience, we still left room for<br />

some improvisation—like spending<br />

an unplanned afternoon in an old<br />

pub drinking cider and listening to<br />

Scottish folk music after stumbling<br />

on an impromptu jam session (the<br />

upright bass player was working a<br />

crossword puzzle between songs).<br />

Or the day that, on a whim, we<br />

caught a train two hours north to<br />

the beautiful riverside village of<br />

Pitlochry at the doorstep of the<br />

Cairngorm mountains.<br />

Our take away (which is also what<br />

they call “take out,” fyi)…? Our<br />

brief visit was a fulfilling first<br />

glimpse of a friendly, thriving city<br />

and country we cannot wait to go<br />

back to and explore more deeply.<br />

These highlights were part of our<br />

basic outline.<br />

1VISIT EDINBURGH CASTLE<br />

Edinburgh’s past is present,<br />

always and often literally, starting<br />

with this ancient fortress built atop<br />

the plug of an extinct volcano. It can<br />

be seen from nearly everywhere in<br />

the city and is impossible to ignore.<br />

In fact, it’s where the city began.<br />

That Mary Queen of Scots gave<br />

birth to her only heir here is just one<br />

of its many fascinating stories. In<br />

summer, lines can be long, so buy<br />

your pass ahead of time—or do like<br />

we did and visit in a snowstorm.<br />

TAKE A HIKE<br />

2 The weather was too blustery<br />

for us to conquer Arthur’s Seat,<br />

another extinct volcano rising above<br />

the Palace of Holyroodhouse, but<br />

we did hit Calton Hill. This 338-foot<br />

knob just off the urban buzz of the<br />

Royal Mile is a great place for views:<br />

“<br />

Even though we<br />

knew what we<br />

wanted to see, do,<br />

and experience, we<br />

still left room for<br />

some improvisation<br />

like spending<br />

an unplanned<br />

afternoon in an old<br />

pub drinking cider<br />

and listening to<br />

Scottish folk music.<br />

with several time-worn monuments,<br />

including a tower that looks like a<br />

telescope and an old jail that looks<br />

like a castle.<br />

3NATIONAL MUSEUM OF<br />

SCOTLAND<br />

A beautiful, mind-blowing place<br />

that we visited twice…and still only<br />

saw maybe a quarter of. Learn<br />

the history of Scotland, including<br />

drama from royal families that<br />

makes the Kardashians seem like<br />

the Waltons. Plus, there’s so, so<br />

much more. And, it’s free.<br />

4PALACE OF<br />

HOLYROODHOUSE<br />

Completed in the 17th century (but<br />

with some parts of the grounds<br />

dating back much further), the<br />

palace anchors the lower end of<br />

the Royal Mile. It is the “Official<br />

Residence of the Queen,” and she<br />

still visits annually. Of course, it<br />

too is steeped in royal history<br />

but also features changing<br />

exhibitions; we took in a visiting<br />

collection of original drawings<br />

from Leonardo Da Vinci (he was<br />

pretty good).<br />

5THE ROYAL MILE<br />

All of it. Travel writer Rick<br />

Steves describes this street as<br />

“one of Europe’s best sightseeing<br />

walks” and, indeed, it is packed<br />

with pubs, shops, five-star<br />

restaurants, pubs, ancient<br />

churches, tearooms, pubs, whisky<br />

tasting, hotels and, did I mention<br />

pubs? But don’t just eat, drink,<br />

and shop; take time to learn the<br />

street’s backstory. We hired a<br />

guide and were glad we did: At<br />

one time Edinburgh was one of<br />

the most densely packed cities in<br />

the world, with tens of thousands<br />

living along this one stretch of<br />

commerce. That overcrowding<br />

led to the building of some of the<br />

world’s first high-rise buildings,<br />

many of which became, over<br />

time, squalid tenements for the<br />

poorest residents. It’s fascinating<br />

and reminds you that while royals<br />

may have done some high living<br />

here, the bulk of the residents<br />

who helped create this beautiful<br />

city did not.<br />

Plank Craft<br />

Kitchen + Bar<br />

Dre's BBQ Burger<br />

Burgers<br />

are a<br />

mainstay<br />

at<br />

Plank,<br />

and they<br />

do them<br />

well.<br />

“<br />

”<br />

You never know what<br />

it’s going to take for a<br />

restaurant to be successful<br />

these days. Ever since Covid,<br />

the old standards have gone<br />

by the wayside and forced<br />

new models of operation. It seems more<br />

and more of us are looking to make our<br />

dining experience simpler and more<br />

comfortable—hence the popularity of<br />

comfort food.<br />

Michael Sanson, restauranteur and<br />

owner of Historic Folsom’s newest<br />

eatery, Plank Craft Kitchen + Bar, has<br />

acknowledged and embraced that<br />

concept. His remodel of the building<br />

at 608 Sutter Street is a relaxed<br />

atmosphere of wood and warmth,<br />

including the bar that he painstakingly<br />

refinished by hand.<br />

I sat at said bar and sampled a few<br />

items from the lunch menu. First, I went<br />

82 stylemg.com | AUGUST <strong>2021</strong> | /stylemediagroup /stylemediagroup /stylemediagroup /stylemags

Buttermilk-Baked Chicken Sandwich<br />

Southern comfort—as in Nashville hot<br />

chicken wings. Having sweated my<br />

way through the original (reputedly)<br />

at Prince’s in Nashville, I was hoping<br />

these were a bit tamer. They were even<br />

possibly a bit too tame for chicken<br />

bearing the “Nashville hot” moniker.<br />

Plank bakes their wings (fine with me),<br />

unlike the deep-fried version doused<br />

with cayenne that Prince’s lover served<br />

him the morning after he cheated on<br />

her in the 1930s. The rest is chicken<br />

history.<br />

Next up, a tasty rendition of one of<br />

my favorites: roasted beet salad. Spring<br />

mix, roasted beets, toasted walnuts,<br />

green onions, and goat cheese with<br />

honey dijon vinaigrette combined for<br />

a refreshing, healthy starter—or an<br />

entrée with the addition of one of five<br />

available proteins. Either way, you can’t<br />

go wrong if you like roasted beets.<br />

Burgers are a mainstay at Plank,<br />

and they do them well. I got the<br />

Dre’s BBQ burger at the risk of being<br />

redundant, because that’s what I<br />

like on a burger. A 1/3 pound of beef,<br />

lettuce, tomatoes, cheddar cheese,<br />

zesty BBQ sauce, applewood smoked<br />

bacon, and a crunchy, fat, onion ring<br />

on brioche proved to be as good as<br />

it looked. I could’ve opted for their<br />

panko-crusted, buttermilk-baked<br />

chicken sandwich with fried green<br />

tomatoes, cheddar cheese, bacon aioli,<br />

and bourbon-bacon slaw, but that will<br />

be a must-try on my next visit.<br />

Another forward-thinking idea<br />

from Mike and his team is the<br />

“Marketplace Sides”—four lighter<br />

additions that take the place of the<br />

usual fries, tots, or rings. I ordered<br />

Roasted Beet Salad<br />

avocado, cherry tomatoes, and pine nuts<br />

in a lime vinaigrette to accompany my<br />

meal. Though a small upcharge, it was<br />

well worth it, in my opinion.<br />

To finish, I went with a velvety crème<br />

brûlée and had to stop myself from also<br />

ordering the cheesecake (both are made<br />

There’s a new sandwich shop in town, and if you’re a fan of quality<br />

subs or sarnies or sangwiches or hoagies (whatever you call them),<br />

then Timmy Ginger’s is the place to try. Located on the corner of<br />

Pleasant Grove and Foothills Boulevard, TG’s serves up 32 specialty<br />

sandwiches (16 meat and 16 vegan), as well as build-your-own options, salads,<br />

sides, and a kids’ menu. It was nice to see a line of folks ordering (including some first responders) and<br />

dining both inside and out on the patio. I ordered a #2: brisket with creamy horseradish,<br />

coleslaw, bacon, and house dressing on a sweet roll (they offer seven bread options). I<br />

sat indoors and watched my beloved San Francisco Giants on the TV while uptempo music played<br />

over their sound system. The brisket was lean and flavorful, and the house-made coleslaw added a<br />

freshness to the meaty behemoth. The next day, I returned for another round, this time opting<br />

for one of the intriguing vegan options, the #18, with a decidedly un-vegan name: Hot<br />

Chicken. The menu lists it with hot chicken, bacon, avocado, provolone,<br />

house slaw, and “kicken sauce”—all of which are plant-based and decidedly<br />

delicious…easily one of the better vegan sandwiches I’ve had. Owner Tim, aka<br />

Timmy Ginger, goes the extra mile by not using things like prepackaged shredded<br />

lettuce and cheap cuts of meat. What’s more, he makes all the sauces in-house,<br />

including vegan mayonnaise. When the sandwich craving hits, stop by and grab one<br />

TOP COOKING TIPS + FOOLPROOF RECIPES<br />

by MEGAN WISKUS<br />

Cooking, for many, is cathartic. No matter your comfort level<br />

in the kitchen, we have some tips and tricks to ensure every<br />

meal you make is mouthwatering.<br />

TASTE YOUR FOOD AS YOU GO.<br />

Ingredients vary in flavor depending<br />

on the season, ripeness, or (if not<br />

fresh) brand. Tasting your food as you<br />

go ensures you can adjust for all these<br />

variables every time.<br />

DON’T BE AFRAID OF HIGH HEAT.<br />

Seems obvious but so much flavor<br />

comes from searing and sautéing at<br />

those high temperatures. You may<br />

have been burned in the past by high<br />

heat, but with the right cookware<br />

for the task at hand, those high<br />

temperatures are the key to building<br />

flavor without overcooking your<br />

ingredients.<br />

LEARN THE “WHY”. We often get<br />

tripped up by thinking that if we’re<br />

missing an ingredient for a recipe,<br />

we can’t move forward, which is<br />

almost never the case! Learning<br />

why an ingredient is there and what<br />

it’s adding (sweet, salty, umami,<br />

leavening) can open you up to a world<br />

of substitutions (like when<br />

making chimichurri). When<br />

in doubt? Ask the Internet!<br />

—Megan Kessenich,<br />

@makingmeggs<br />

Chimichurri<br />

1 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley (about 1 bunch)<br />

1 cup fresh cilantro (about 1 bunch)<br />

1/2 cup red onion, diced (sub: 1 shallot)<br />

3 tbsp. fresh oregano (sub: leave out)<br />

3-5 cloves of garlic, peeled<br />

2 tbsp. fresh lemon or lime juice (sub: orange juice<br />

with an extra splash of vinegar)<br />

2 tbsp. red wine vinegar (sub: champagne or apple<br />

cider vinegar)<br />

¼ tsp. salt (or more to taste)<br />

¼ tsp. freshly ground black pepper<br />

1 jalapeño, stems and seeds removed to reduce<br />

spice, as desired (sub: red pepper flake or a few<br />

dashes of your favorite hot sauce)<br />

1/2-3/4 cup high-quality olive oil<br />

Add all ingredients except the olive oil<br />

to a food processor; pulse a few times<br />

until chopped. Slowly stream in the olive<br />

oil, while pulsing the mixture a few more<br />

times until the olive oil is combined,<br />

stopping to scrape down the sides of the<br />

food processor if needed. Add olive oil<br />

until sauce reaches desired consistency.<br />

Serve immediately or refrigerate in a<br />

sealed container for up to 3 days.<br />

Wondering what to do with leftover<br />

chimichurri sauce? Get creative! Try<br />

stirring it into soups, pasta dishes,<br />

dolloped on top of a baked potato, or<br />

over your morning eggs to add a bright,<br />

fresh, and flavorful punch.<br />

Cranberry, Pistachio, & Honey Energy Bites<br />

1 cup dried cranberries<br />

1 cup pistachios<br />

ADDING A SQUEEZE OF ABOUT HALF<br />

A LEMON to roasted or sautéed<br />

vegetables helps to brighten the flavors.<br />

Make sure to add it toward the end once<br />

the vegetables are cooked.<br />

WHEN A RECIPE CALLS FOR MELTED<br />

BUTTER, BROWN IT in a saucepan on<br />

your stove instead to create a more<br />

deliciously rich flavor.<br />

PICKLE YOUR EXCESS PRODUCE! Don't<br />

let it go to waste. Cauliflower, radishes,<br />

rainbow chard stems, carrots, asparagus,<br />

green beans, onions…the list is endless.<br />

Make sure to scale the liquid, depending<br />

on how much you’re pickling and the size<br />

of the jar.<br />

Rough chop the dates. Add all ingredients to<br />

food processor. Pulse until well mixed. Roll<br />

into small balls. Makes 20 balls.<br />

Quick Pickled<br />

Veggies<br />

4-6 tbsp. sugar<br />

2 tbsp. kosher salt<br />

2 cups hot water<br />

2 cups vinegar (rice wine or<br />

apple cider)<br />

Veggies of choice (cauliflower,<br />

radishes, carrots, green beans,<br />

etc.), cut into 1-inch pieces<br />

Optional ingredients to add<br />

additional flavor: rosemary,<br />

thyme, red pepper flakes, or<br />

peppercorns<br />

Dissolve sugar and salt in hot<br />

water; add vinegar and stir. Prep<br />

veggies and add them to a glass<br />

jar. Pour liquid mixture into the<br />

jar, ensuring it covers the top of<br />

the vegetables and none float<br />

past the surface. Place the lid on<br />

top and allow it to cool before<br />

refrigerating. They taste best<br />

after about 2 days and will keep<br />

up to 1 month in your fridge.<br />

PREPARATION IS KEY. Keep a bowl of<br />

salt and pepper blend on your counter<br />

for basic seasoning needs. Instead of<br />

grabbing the salt and pepper separately,<br />

it’ll save you time and a step.<br />

USE SQUIRT BOTTLES FOR YOUR OILS.<br />

Forget messing with a lid—just grab and<br />

squirt! I cook mostly with avocado oil<br />

and olive oil, so those two are always on<br />

my countertop.<br />

BUY A GOOD CHEF'S KNIFE AND<br />

KEEP IT SHARP. My favorite one is<br />

the Wusthof Grand Prix (Hollow Edge<br />

Santoku), which you can sharpen with a<br />

stone soaked in water.<br />

LET MACHINES DO THE WORK! Using<br />

tools like food processors make recipes<br />

like my homemade cranberry, pistachio,<br />

& honey energy bites<br />

easy peasy.<br />

PAT THE FLESH ON FISH COMPLETELY DRY AND SEASON WITH<br />

ONLY SALT AND PEPPER. Then get a cast iron or heavy pan very<br />

hot with a little bit of canola or other high-temp oil and place<br />

the fish flesh side down. Once there’s a golden-brown crust,<br />

flip; the fish is finished once it's flaky.<br />

WHEN ENTERTAINING, PICK A DISH THAT HAS AT LEAST ONE<br />

DO-AHEAD COMPONENT, such as a sauce that can<br />

hold well and is interesting like blistered pepper &<br />

heirloom tomato sauce. It pairs well with proteins,<br />

elevates any dish, and makes final preparations<br />

easier to pull off and less stressful.<br />

Blistered Pepper<br />

& Heirloom<br />

Tomato Sauce<br />

1 Anaheim chili pepper, stems &<br />

seeds removed, cut lengthwise<br />

1 Fresno chili pepper, stems &<br />

seeds removed, cut lengthwise<br />

1/2 yellow bell pepper, stems &<br />

seeds removed, cut lengthwise<br />

1 yellow onion (approx. 2 cups),<br />

chopped into big pieces<br />

4 large garlic cloves, whole<br />

3 lbs. heirloom tomatoes (mostly<br />

red but any variety)<br />

1/4 cup loosely packed basil<br />

2 tbsp. unsalted butter<br />

2 tbsp. olive oil + more to cook<br />

Salt and black pepper<br />

Line a sheet pan with parchment<br />

paper. Lay peppers down, skin<br />

side up, along with the onion and<br />

garlic. Drizzle with olive oil, season<br />

with salt and pepper, and broil until<br />

the skin on the peppers is blistered or<br />

blackened. You may need to rotate the<br />

pan under the broiler to achieve this.<br />

Move peppers to a bowl and cover<br />

with plastic wrap. Wait 10 minutes and<br />

remove the skin from their flesh.<br />

Core the tomatoes and cut into large<br />

pieces. In a large pot, heat olive oil, and<br />

add the chopped tomatoes, salt, and<br />

pepper. Cook over medium heat until<br />

the tomatoes start to break down.<br />

Add the peppers, onions, and garlic<br />

into the tomatoes and cook for 10-<br />

15 minutes. Add the mixture to a<br />

blender. Add butter and basil. Blend to<br />

combine and then turn speed to purée.<br />

Pour sauce into glass jars or freezer<br />

containers, if storing, and use with<br />

your favorite recipe.<br />

Where We Live<br />

“It’s a priceless privilege living where I’m able to easily get away from the<br />

hustle and bustle of everyday life and find solitude outside. Gazing at the<br />

stars puts things in perspective and makes life seem so simple.”<br />

REACH FOR<br />

THE STARS<br />

As if you needed<br />

another reason<br />

to get outside,<br />

<strong>August</strong> marks one<br />

of the best months<br />

for stargazing.<br />

Don't miss these<br />

astronomical events.<br />

<strong>August</strong> 1, Saturn at<br />

Opposition<br />

During this once-a-year event,<br />

Saturn will be closer to Earth<br />

and its face fully illuminated<br />

by the sun, making it appear<br />

about 40% larger than usual.<br />

A medium-sized (or larger)<br />

telescope will allow you to see<br />

the planet’s rings and a few of<br />

its brightest moons.<br />

<strong>August</strong> 8, New Moon<br />

The first phase of the lunar<br />

calendar, new moons occur<br />

when the sun and moon are<br />

aligned—making the moon<br />

invisible from Earth and<br />

creating the darkest sky of the<br />

month. This is the prime time<br />

to observe star clusters and see<br />

the Milky Way.<br />

<strong>August</strong> 11-13, Perseids<br />

Meteor Shower<br />

Regarded as one of the best<br />

meteor showers of the year,<br />

you can witness up to 60<br />

shooting stars per hour (that’s<br />

one per minute!). To maximize<br />

the number of meteors you see,<br />

try watching after midnight but<br />

before dawn.<br />

<strong>August</strong> 19, Jupiter at<br />

Opposition<br />

During this once-a-year event,<br />

Jupiter and the sun are in<br />

opposite directions, meaning<br />

the planet is closer to Earth<br />

and appears about 70% larger<br />

than usual. A medium-sized<br />

telescope will allow you to see<br />

some of the details in Jupiter's<br />

cloud bands, while a good pair<br />

of binoculars should allow you<br />

to see its four largest moons<br />

(appearing as bright dots on<br />

either side of the planet).<br />

<strong>August</strong> 22, Blue Moon<br />

Since this is the third of four<br />

full moons this season—a<br />

rare calendar event that<br />

only happens once every few<br />

years—it’s known as a blue<br />

moon (hence the term “once in<br />

a blue moon”).<br />
