Style Magazine - May 2023

With Mother’s Day upon us (May 14), we thought it timely to talk about the importance of self-care. Check out “Me Time Matters” (page 38) for actionable ideas all moms can, and should, take—like carving out quiet time, scheduling personal pampering appointments, and mingling with other mamas through community groups like The Mom Walk Collective. Side note: We have some great Mother’s Day gift ideas starting on page 68. (Hint, hint, husbands!) In addition to the full-time job of motherhood, more females than ever before have actual full-time jobs—many in management or CEO roles. Learn about some of our region’s incredibly inspiring “Women in Business” starting on page 44. This year’s spread is one of our biggest, best ones yet—an encouraging sign that the tide may (hopefully) be turning toward favoring women in the workforce. Finally, in our feature, “BBQ Bucket List!” we highlight some of the best barbecue in town. Whether you favor a specific style (St. Louis? Southern Texas?) or simply believe “the meatier, the messier, the better,” there’s a rack of ribs and a side of slaw you’ll certainly want to try. Dig in starting on page 81. Enjoy the issue and remember to do something that brings YOU joy today—and every day! Whether it’s heading out for a hike (page 42), meeting friends for tapas and tempranillo at The Vine (see page 94), or celebrating National Bike Month by riding on a new-to-you route (page 16), your body—but mostly your mind—will thank you. Cheers!

| editor’s letter |<br />

I’m pretty low-maintenance when it<br />

comes to Mother’s Day. My only ask?<br />

To start the morning on my mat (aka,<br />

attend a yoga class). Though I also crave<br />

quality time with my favorite people<br />

(family!) and appreciate a handmade<br />

card or fresh-cut flowers, spending 75<br />

uninterrupted minutes focusing on “my” breath<br />

and “my” body—without staring at a screen or<br />

listening to my daughters’ scream—is my kind<br />

of way to welcome the day.<br />

If every morning could begin with downward<br />

dogging, I’d likely be a more pleasant, present, and<br />

patient person with a less nervous nervous system;<br />

unfortunately, a regular yoga practice isn’t currently<br />

in the cards. And even if it was, as someone who’s<br />

prone to panic and anxiety, I need all sorts of assistance—beyond just breathwork—to manage<br />

my mental health.<br />

Apparently, I’m not alone either. According to the National Institute of Mental<br />

Health, more than one in five U.S. adults live with a mental illness. Turn to “Mind<br />

Your Mind” (page 20) to read about local resources aimed at helping those battling<br />

with everything from PTSD to postpartum depression heal and deal.<br />

Speaking of maternal mental health, with Mother’s Day upon us (<strong>May</strong> 14), we<br />

thought it timely to talk about the importance of self-care. Check out “Me Time<br />

Matters” (page 38) for actionable ideas all moms<br />

can, and should, take—like carving out quiet time,<br />

“What mental scheduling personal pampering appointments, and<br />

health needs is mingling with other mamas through community<br />

groups like The Mom Walk Collective. Side note: We<br />

more sunlight,<br />

have some great Mother’s Day gift ideas starting on<br />

more candor, page 68. (Hint, hint, husbands!)<br />

and more<br />

In addition to the full-time job of motherhood,<br />

more females than ever before have actual full-time<br />

unashamed<br />

jobs—many in management or CEO roles. Learn<br />

conversation.” about some of our region’s incredibly inspiring<br />

—Glenn Close<br />

“Women in Business” starting on page 44. This<br />

year’s spread is one of our biggest, best ones yet—an<br />

encouraging sign that the tide may (hopefully) be turning toward favoring women<br />

in the workforce.<br />

Finally, in our feature, “BBQ Bucket List!” we highlight some of the best barbecue<br />

in town. Whether you favor a specific style (St. Louis? Southern Texas?) or simply<br />

believe “the meatier, the messier, the better,” there’s a rack of ribs and a side of slaw<br />

Tacos<br />

or<br />

burritos?<br />

“Tacos for the win—especially fish tacos<br />

with loads of avocado!”—Bella Nolen<br />

“Although I’ve stuffed down many burritos,<br />

for me, the taco adventure will never end.<br />

It’s almost more of an experience or<br />

even a lifestyle. I love the simplicity and<br />

endless combinations. A fresh homemade<br />

tortilla, seasoned protein, onions,<br />

cilantro, and mouthwatering salsa. That’s<br />

what I’m taco’n about!”—Gary Zsigo<br />

“Street tacos! I love the fresh, simple<br />

ingredients and the warm corn tortillas.<br />

I usually go for grilled chicken, but<br />

sometimes it’s fun to mix it up, since<br />

they’re small and there are so many<br />

different kinds.”<br />

—Jennifer Maragoni<br />

“Tacos, because it’s all about the crunch!<br />

Plump shrimp and all the fixin’s in a super<br />

crispy shell.”—Suzie Moore<br />

“Tacos! Whether they’re from a street<br />

vendor or my own kitchen, the taco is<br />

simply superior. Though, it could also be<br />

because I still haven’t learned how to<br />

properly fold a burrito.”<br />

—Ray Burgess<br />

“Tacos all the way! A crunchy shell that’s<br />

fully loaded with protein (fish, chicken, or<br />

beef), lettuce, extra cheese, guacamole,<br />

sour cream, and pico de gallo. Yum!”<br />

—Debbie Juhos<br />

BETTER<br />

WITH<br />

AGE<br />

When it comes to wine, we’ve all heard the saying that it<br />

gets better with age. But according to Dr. Grover Lee of<br />

Wise Villa Winery and other vino experts, “only 5-10% of<br />

wine made worldwide improves after one year and only<br />

1% is made to age past five years.” Head to our website to<br />

learn more myths about aging wine.<br />

Celebrate National<br />

by CAITLIN MCCULLOCH<br />

Bike Month<br />

April (and all the winter months prior!) showers brought us flowers, so<br />

now's the prime time to enjoy the blooms with some fresh-air fun. In<br />

honor of <strong>May</strong> being National Bike Month, we put together 10 ways to get<br />

into the riding spirit all month long (and beyond) for every interest and<br />

skill level. Try just one thing from our list or set a goal to tackle them all!<br />

SIGN UP FOR A RACE (OR JUST<br />

JOIN THE AFTER-PARTY)<br />

Serious bike riders are invited to race<br />

in Mother Lode Epic (clippedinforlife.<br />

org/our-races/mother-lode-epic)—an<br />

endurance race on June 17 that spans<br />

California’s gold discovery route from<br />

Magnolia Ranch Trailhead in Coloma<br />

all the way to Historic Folsom (with a<br />

boat transfer across Folsom Lake between<br />

the last two stages!). If that’s not your speed,<br />

buddy up for the two-person relay or simply celebrate<br />

with participants afterward at the post-race party, where<br />

promises of a beer garden, live music, and an award<br />

ceremony await at Zittel Family Amphitheater.<br />

GO CAR-FREE<br />

FOR A DAY<br />

It may be National Bike Month,<br />

but did you know <strong>May</strong> 19 is<br />

specifically National Bike to Work<br />

Day? Join in on the adventure and<br />

pedal to your destination instead<br />

of driving. If you work from<br />

home—as many do these days—<br />

challenge yourself to run your<br />

errands using two wheels instead<br />

of four, or cycle with your kiddos<br />

to school. The date falls on a<br />

Friday, so perhaps you’ve earned<br />

a ride to happy hour, too!<br />

CHECK OUT<br />

A NEW-TO-<br />

YOU TRAIL<br />

Explore the heart of Lincoln on<br />

the easy four-mile Rock Island<br />

Trail; challenge yourself with<br />

Roseville’s Secret Ravine Trail,<br />

a moderate and often less<br />

crowded 4.6-mile journey that<br />

includes a 154-foot elevation<br />

gain; check out Pheasant Trail in<br />

Auburn’s Hidden Falls Regional<br />

Park for a half-mile point-topoint<br />

route; or venture to Folsom<br />

Lake’s Pioneer Express Trail if<br />

you’re seeking a moderately<br />

challenging 14.1-mile adventure.<br />

Wherever you are, and whatever<br />

length or level of difficulty you’re<br />

looking for, visit alltrails.com to<br />

Occasional guests from the<br />

cycling world pop on, too.<br />

TAKE A SPIN CLASS<br />

Is biking indoors more your speed? Enjoy some cool A/C and less allergies<br />

while you pedal at Folsom’s TrueNorth Cycle + Strength (truenorthcycle.<br />

Practical Cycle (practicalcycle.com) in Historic Folsom and<br />

take on the American River Parkway in style (and increased<br />

speed). You can choose if you’d like to pedal or not, which<br />

is a super fun feeling on a bike if you’ve never experienced<br />

it. Rentals come with helmets and locks. For just a little<br />

extra cash, you can also rent a tandem e-bike!<br />

WILL BIKE FOR BEER<br />

(OR WINE)<br />

If you’re looking to balance weekend treats with<br />

some exercise, load your bikes in the car and head<br />

to the Placer Wine & Ale Trail (visitplacer.com/<br />

the way to Meadow Vista, the area has multiple<br />

tap rooms, wine bars, wineries, craft breweries,<br />

areas that are bike-friendly ahead of time and<br />

remember to ride (and imbibe!) responsibly.<br />

Mental Health Resources<br />

by JENNIFER MARAGONI<br />

More than one in five U.S. adults suffers from a<br />

mental illness, according to the National Institute<br />

of Mental Health (NIMH). This includes anxiety,<br />

depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder,<br />

among other conditions. The numbers for youth<br />

are especially sobering, with one in six kids<br />

experiencing mental illness, and suicide ranking<br />

as the second leading cause of death among<br />

10-14-year-olds and third leading cause of death<br />

among those 15-24, according to the National<br />

Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).<br />

Everyone has bad days, but mental illness affects a<br />

person's thoughts, feelings, behavior, or mood such<br />

that it deeply impedes their day-to-day life and<br />

often their ability to relate to others, NAMI explains.<br />

The pandemic further fueled demand for mental<br />

health treatment, including therapy, support groups,<br />

and medication for people of all ages. Although life<br />

is returning to normal in many ways, there is still an<br />

overwhelming need for care.<br />

“Mental health challenges tend to lag events,”<br />

explains Beatrix Hurley, LMFT (beatrixhurley.com).<br />

“During the pandemic, we did our best to handle it<br />

in real time, but we continue to see more [issues]<br />

developing over time. I haven’t seen a slowdown,<br />

especially with teenage mental health needs.”<br />

<strong>May</strong> is Mental Health Awareness Month, an opportunity<br />

to promote understanding of mental illness and<br />

reduce the stigma often associated with it. So we’re<br />

highlighting some of the region's incredible nonprofits<br />

dedicated to helping those struggling. “There is a very<br />

large need across the board for mental health care<br />

that can’t be met with the resources we have now,<br />

but these nonprofits are essential in helping meet<br />

demand in the community,” says Hurley.<br />

Read on to learn about these organizations and the<br />

important work they do.<br />

The Infant Parent Center<br />

(infantparentcenter.org)<br />

offers pregnancy and<br />

postpartum support, baby<br />

wellness programs, and<br />

therapy for young children.<br />

The organization, which<br />

recently moved its main<br />

office from Cameron Park to<br />

Shingle Springs, also offers<br />

support services for foster<br />

care and adoptive parents.<br />

IPC was founded in 2008<br />

by Ron Henke, the first child<br />

protective services officer<br />

in El Dorado County and<br />

a longtime champion for<br />

children.<br />

New Morning Youth<br />

for similar services among<br />

first responders, FSP launched<br />

Placer Reset to serve law<br />

FSP turned a dirt lot into an<br />

armed forces pavilion and<br />

community garden where<br />

veterans and others can<br />

Spotlight on Abstract Artists<br />

by JENNIFER MARAGONI<br />

Artist Jackson Pollock described his work as “energy and motion made visible.”<br />

Best known for his “drip technique,” in which he poured and splashed paint on<br />

canvases laid on the floor, Pollock became an icon of the abstract expressionist<br />

movement of the mid-20th century. But abstract art is as unique as the artists<br />

who create it, and one need only look around our region for proof.<br />

Above: Eclipse;<br />

Right: Escape,<br />

Skies Delight, and<br />

Purple Fury<br />

Conni Jo Hardie<br />

connijohardie.com<br />

Born and raised in<br />

Placerville, Conni Jo<br />

Hardie has been winning<br />

awards for her art since<br />

she was seven years<br />

old. “My grandmother<br />

entered my oil painting<br />

into the county fair—in<br />

the adult division—and<br />

I won second place.<br />

Since then, I’ve enjoyed<br />

every aspect of the art<br />

world,” including acrylic<br />

and watercolor painting,<br />

photography, and<br />

ceramics. Hardie says<br />

abstract art allows her to<br />

apply her artistic abilities<br />

“in the most imaginative,<br />

experimental way.”<br />

How do you define<br />

abstract art?<br />

Altering reality in the<br />

mind’s eye. It expresses<br />

freedom of thought,<br />

feelings, experiences,<br />

movement, and objects<br />

in an interpretive style. It<br />

wakes up the imagination<br />

of the artist and the<br />

viewer. Exploring the<br />

unexpected.<br />

Where do you seek<br />

inspiration?<br />

I’m inspired by how color<br />

theories relate to nature.<br />

Magnificent sunsets,<br />

beautiful ocean waters,<br />

breathtaking tropical<br />

flowers, and glowing<br />

volcanic eruptions create<br />

my palette.<br />

What do you<br />

wish more people<br />

understood about<br />

abstract art?<br />

The more often you look<br />

at abstract art, the more<br />

you will see, especially<br />

when viewing it from<br />

different distances. It’s<br />

OK that one person sees<br />

something different than<br />

another person.<br />

realism turns a great artist<br />

into a printer and kills what is<br />

so great about art itself—the<br />

uniqueness we get from each<br />

artist’s perspective. Abstract art<br />

allows for pure creativity with<br />

no rules.<br />

Describe your artistic<br />

process.<br />

When I paint, the art usually<br />

comes out very fast and<br />

effortless. If I make a mistake,<br />

it usually becomes part of<br />

the painting. When creating<br />

abstract art, there really is no<br />

telling exactly what it’s going<br />

to look like, so you have to let<br />

the painting speak for itself by<br />

not micromanaging every bit of<br />

color on the canvas.<br />

Zachary<br />

Nicholson<br />

zjnart.com<br />

As a kid, Folsom artist<br />

Zachary Nicholson spent<br />

hours at a time sketching<br />

pictures to show his mom.<br />

For many years, he used<br />

only charcoal and graphite,<br />

and had what he now calls<br />

a “blind deterrence” to<br />

color. “Through schooling,<br />

I was forced to expand<br />

my choice of mediums,<br />

which introduced me to the<br />

world of color and, in turn,<br />

abstract art.”<br />

How do you define<br />

abstract art?<br />

There really is no concrete<br />

definition of art itself, only<br />

“genres” and “mediums” but,<br />

in my opinion, abstract art<br />

breaks the most rules and<br />

lacks the most definition.<br />

Abstract art is, by far,<br />

the most intriguing and<br />

persistently fascinating style<br />

of art.<br />

What appeals to you<br />

about creating abstract<br />

art?<br />

For years I believed realism<br />

was the most impressive,<br />

intriguing type of art, but<br />

then I realized the artist is<br />

limited by the reference<br />

photo. In my opinion,<br />

challenging time.<br />

A few years later,<br />

while remodeling his<br />

home, he decided<br />

to experiment with<br />

art on the newly<br />

blank walls. “With<br />

the support of my<br />

inner circle, my<br />

experiment led to a<br />

passion, to sharing<br />

my passion publicly,<br />

to exhibitions and<br />

sales, and—just<br />

recently—to winning<br />

my first award!”<br />

How do you<br />

define abstract<br />

art?<br />

Abstract art is the<br />

manifestation of<br />

artistic expression<br />

affecting and<br />

connecting the artist<br />

and viewer amid<br />

indeterministic<br />

imagery.<br />

Where do you<br />

seek inspiration?<br />

I’m particularly<br />

curious about<br />

life within the<br />

metaphysical<br />

universe, in its<br />

“quantumness” and<br />

totality. I strive to<br />

bring these concepts<br />

into the visual realm<br />

and realization of<br />

anyone with likeminded<br />

curiosity.<br />

What do you<br />

wish more people<br />

Above (top to bottom):<br />

Overfed Long-Haired Leaping<br />

Gnome, Mad As Hell, and<br />

Wavey Daze<br />

understood about<br />

abstract art?<br />

That you don’t need to<br />

understand abstract<br />

art; abstract art is not<br />

an understanding;<br />

it’s a feeling, an<br />

expression—energy<br />

being conveyed<br />

between the artist and<br />

onlooker, and no two<br />

people experience<br />

this energy alike.<br />

Sondra Hersh<br />

sondraart.com<br />

Sondra Hersh has been creating<br />

art from her Auburn studio in<br />

a yurt for 30 years. Previously,<br />

she ran a design studio in<br />

Southern California, where she<br />

commissioned herself to create<br />

a small painting for a client. The<br />

client loved it, prompting her<br />

to pursue her passion. Hersh<br />

currently creates sculptures in<br />

wood, copper wire, and faceted<br />

precious and semiprecious stones,<br />

and recently returned to painting.<br />

How do you define<br />

abstract art?<br />

It’s characterized by a lack of<br />

recognizable images or objects and<br />

often uses nontraditional materials<br />

or techniques. The emphasis is<br />

on expressing emotions and ideas<br />

using shapes, colors, and lines.<br />

Where do you seek<br />

inspiration?<br />

From an active dialogue with spirit<br />

and my love for humanity and all of<br />

God’s creations. My process always<br />

starts with a spiritual impulse. For<br />

example, my latest series, Love<br />

Nests, started as small, intimate<br />

meditations on love during the<br />

pandemic and has grown into large<br />

communal nests. I believe my<br />

work is a material expression of<br />

a holistic life; my goal is to create<br />

work that is true and touches<br />

humanity in a way that creates a<br />

vibration of healing and peace.<br />

What’s the best compliment<br />

you could get about your<br />

art?<br />

That the viewer feels held in love<br />

and that this feeling is now held<br />

inside them, something they can<br />

take with them.<br />

Want to know more?<br />

Call us today and schedule an appointment to discover if<br />

any of these new medications are right for you.<br />

What’s all the chatter about?<br />

They’re in the news, mentioned at the Academy Awards, by<br />

talk show hosts, articles in The Washington Post, New York<br />

Times, and Wall Street Journal. Perhaps this will be the year<br />

that more people recognize that obesity is a disease and that it<br />

can and IS being treated successfully.<br />

Semaglutide, the medication marketed as Wegovy for obesity<br />

and Ozempic and Rybelsus marketed for diabetes, and the<br />

newest, tirzepatide marketed as Mounjaro are proving to be<br />

a game changer for the treatment of obesity. Word has been<br />

spreading like wildfire and they are flying off the shelves! It’s<br />

no wonder when people are achieving 15-20% of total body<br />

weight loss with continued use.<br />

We are very excited to offer these medications at Hendricks for<br />

Health and to safely use them (*marketed name brands only)<br />

combined with our proprietary Hendricks Method program.<br />

“Me Time”<br />

Matters<br />

Self-Care for Moms<br />

by MELISSA STRAND<br />

We see your strength,<br />

Mama. Navigating<br />

the ups and downs<br />

of motherhood with<br />

herculean mental<br />

and physical power,<br />

often neglecting<br />

your own needs,<br />

while attempting to<br />

juggle work, a mileslong<br />

checklist, and<br />

everything else life<br />

throws your way. But<br />

maybe it’s time to put<br />

yourself first—time<br />

to start seeking help<br />

for your physical and<br />

mental well-being.<br />

Making time for you<br />

may feel selfish but<br />

giving yourself the gift<br />

of self-care will make<br />

you stronger, happier,<br />

and a better mom and<br />

partner. Here are some<br />

tips to ensure you’re<br />

filling yourself up with<br />

the same love and<br />

attention you give so<br />

willingly to others.<br />

Feel-Good Endorphins<br />

Moving your body can do wonders for your<br />

mind—especially if you’re moving with other<br />

moms. Check out the local fitness group<br />

Fit4Mom (fit4mom.com), which offers workouts<br />

for every stage of motherhood and level<br />

of fitness, including “Stroller Strides” and a<br />

prenatal “Fit4Baby” program; or The Mom Walk<br />

Collective (themomwalkcollective.com), which<br />

encourages moms to walk while sipping coffee<br />

and building community at their bimonthly<br />

events hosted locally in Folsom, El Dorado<br />

Hills, Roseville, Rocklin, and Lincoln.<br />

Reset With Rest<br />

It’s no secret that your sleep changes after<br />

becoming a parent. Navigating the newborn<br />

stage, early mornings, and unpredictable<br />

nights can all bring a host of sleep difficulties.<br />

Rebecca Barlow, a certified nurse midwife<br />

at Marshall Medical Center, reminds us that<br />

“sleep deprivation is not only a miserable<br />

state but can also be a catalyst for postpartum<br />

depression and anxiety and the difference<br />

between normal postpartum blues and a<br />

mental health condition requiring further<br />

treatment.” Make sure to prioritize sleep, even<br />

if it’s just taking a short rest during your child’s<br />

naptime. Your body will thank you.<br />

It's Ok To Seek<br />

Professional Help<br />

How do you know when baby blues are getting<br />

serious? According to Therese Sorrentino,<br />

LMFT (theresesorrentinomft.com), “Postpartum<br />

depression is common, and many new<br />

mothers experience it due to the change in<br />

hormones and lack of sleep. In addition to<br />

losing rest, it's a big adjustment to navigate<br />

this new and overwhelming responsibility.<br />

| health & wellness |<br />

Sometimes mothers can have obsessive thoughts that they might<br />

hurt their baby or extreme fear of being separated from their<br />

child. When you have that kind of fear and anxiety, it’s time to call<br />

a therapist. Trying therapy first is the most conservative approach,<br />

as it can help you understand what’s going on and give you tools<br />

to cope. If depression or sadness persists, it’s best to see your<br />

medical doctor to determine if medication is recommended.”<br />

Prioritize Health & Well-Being<br />

In between school and daycare drop-offs and pickups,<br />

extracurriculars, and making appointments for your kiddos, it’s<br />

easy to neglect your own health and well-being. But putting off<br />

self-care while you care for others leads to burnout. Be sure to<br />

book appointments for yourself, too (mammogram, physical,<br />

dental cleaning, eye exam, etc.)—no matter how full your<br />

calendar may be. And don’t forget to pamper yourself every so<br />

often with a massage, facial, haircut, pedicure, or solo shopping<br />

trip to purchase a new (for you!) outfit; after all, looking good<br />

makes you feel good!<br />

Remember Who You Are<br />

What were your passions and interests before you took on the<br />

role as a mom? Rediscover them in a way that fits your lifestyle.<br />

Betty Murray, DO, internal medicine physician with Dignity<br />

Health Mercy Medical Group, suggests “taking an hour, one or<br />

two nights a week, to do something you enjoyed in the past but<br />

haven't been able to do recently. After spending time on yourself,<br />

you’ll likely be more relaxed and [able to] put your full focus onto<br />

your family's needs, [making for a] stronger, happier [household].”<br />

We’re All In This Together<br />

It’s comforting when you can rely on a community of people<br />

who have been through what you’re experiencing. Having a<br />

judgment-free mom tribe takes away the isolation moms can<br />

sometimes experience and makes motherhood feel more<br />

manageable. Dedicate some time to reconnecting with your<br />

girlfriends—whether it’s happy hour, brunch, a park hang, or<br />

going to see a play—and catch up for a therapeutic moment of<br />

rejuvenating adult interaction.<br />

Carve Out Some Quiet Time<br />

Find a realistic amount of time that you can commit to daily,<br />

just for you, and make it non-negotiable. “Self-care is often<br />

overcomplicated, but [even waking] up 20-30 minutes prior<br />

to your family [can be beneficial],” says Ashlee Janzen, LMFT<br />

(ashleejanzenlmft.com). Whether you wake up and stretch, read,<br />

meditate, or simply sit on the couch alone with a hot drink, let<br />

this time serve as your valuable reset button.<br />

Take a Hike<br />

| health & wellness |<br />

Fairy Falls Trail to Beale Falls<br />

by RYAN MARTINEZ<br />

LOCATED IN:<br />

Beale Air Force Base (near<br />

Marysville and Yuba City).<br />

DISTANCE:<br />

5.3-mile loop.<br />

DIFFICULTY LEVEL:<br />

Easy.<br />

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO:<br />

The trail is kid- and dog-friendly<br />

(pups must be leashed) with<br />

little shade and no bathrooms.<br />

The access road is bumpy at<br />

the end and has free parking.<br />

Wear shoes with traction, sun<br />

protection, and your bathing<br />

suit (there are some great spots<br />

for swimming!). Bring plenty of<br />

water and, as always, leave no<br />

trace.<br />

WHY WE LOVE IT:<br />

There’s a variety of scenery<br />

and little elevation gain on this<br />

hike where you pass through an<br />

abandoned mine, grasslands,<br />

woodlands, swimming holes,<br />

and creeks before finally ending<br />

at a 100-foot waterfall.<br />

FUEL UP:<br />

Old Town Pizza (otpizza.net)—<br />

whose original Auburn outpost<br />

was established in 1999—is a<br />

fan favorite for good<br />

reason. Stop by<br />

their Lincoln<br />

locale to enjoy<br />

delicious pies<br />

(served whole<br />

and by the<br />

slice), salads,<br />

sandwiches, craft<br />

beer, wine, and/or<br />

gelato on their rooftop patio.<br />

Who was<br />

Beale?<br />

We've all heard the<br />

name—Beales Point,<br />

Beale Air Force<br />

Base—but who was<br />

"Beale," and why do<br />

we see the name<br />

everywhere?<br />

Edward Fitzgerald<br />

“Ned” Beale was a<br />

pioneer in the mid-<br />

1800s—a military<br />

general and explorer<br />

who fought in the<br />

Mexican-American<br />

War. Known as a<br />

war hero, he then<br />

became nationally<br />

famous after carrying<br />

the first gold samples<br />

east of California,<br />

contributing greatly<br />

to the Gold Rush.<br />

Beale curiously led a<br />

military experiment<br />

using Army camels.<br />

Yes…camels. Being<br />

able to carry heavier<br />

loads than mules and<br />

traveling days without<br />

water, the thought<br />

was to replace mules<br />

with camels. Sounds<br />

crazy, right? Well,<br />

it worked, but the<br />

camels scared horses<br />

and mules, so the<br />

Army decided to<br />

forego the venture.<br />

Of course, there’s<br />

much more to be said<br />

about this man, but<br />

this is a sneak peek<br />

into who he was and<br />

the unusual times he<br />

pioneered.<br />

WOMEN<br />

your goal, here are just a few of<br />

the many available resources you<br />

the area’s best and brightest<br />

women business owners on<br />

<strong>May</strong> 12 at the Sacramento<br />

Women’s Conference. bbb.org/<br />

HER (Folsom Women’s<br />

Conference) is sponsored<br />

by Folsom Chamber of<br />

Commerce, among other<br />

local businesses, and features<br />

This century is an exciting one for<br />

women in business. Never before<br />

have women enjoyed so many<br />

opportunities to succeed as<br />

entrepreneurs—whether they’re looking to<br />

make an impact in corporate board rooms<br />

or to establish a business or professional<br />

practice. Our area is teeming with female<br />

go-getters—ladies who lead, stand out in<br />

their fields, and stand tall on the shoulders<br />

of the women who blazed trails before<br />

them. In this special section, you’ll meet<br />

some of these foremost females whose<br />

stories of accomplishments and journeys to<br />

success are bound to inspire.<br />

A century ago, only 15% of women worked<br />

outside the home, mostly as domestics.<br />

By 1960, a third of women were employed.<br />

That decade gave rise to two important<br />

laws: the Equal Pay Act of 1963, which<br />

began closing the salary gap between<br />

the sexes, and a ruling in 1968 that job<br />

ads could no longer be segregated<br />

by gender. Yet it took until 1988 and<br />

the passage of the Women’s Business<br />

Ownership Act before women-owned<br />

enterprises could get business loans<br />

without male co-signers.<br />

Today, more than three-quarters of workingage<br />

women are employed, and women<br />

are filling career opportunities once virtually<br />

closed to them: More than a third of doctors<br />

are women, up from 6%—not a misprint—in<br />

1950. Lawyers’ Wives groups have given way<br />

to women lawyers associations. And more<br />

than a third of STEM workers are women;<br />

only 8% were in 1970. Not to be overlooked:<br />

Our country has its first woman vice<br />

president, and next year for the first time a<br />

woman astronaut will fly to the moon.<br />

Some achievements still seem elusive.<br />

Women don’t yet own as many companies<br />

as men do—42% vs 58%—but the growth<br />

of women-owned businesses is increasing<br />

exponentially: 16.7% between 2012 and<br />

2019, compared to 5.2% for male-owned<br />

businesses. Women entrepreneurs’ gross<br />

earnings rose by more than 50% compared<br />

to just over one-third for men. And most<br />

notably: While women helm fewer than<br />

10% of S&P 500 companies, their rates of<br />

return have outperformed the men-run<br />

corporations by 384% to 261%.<br />

One key to women’s success is that<br />

traditionally they network, support<br />

speakers, lunch, networking,<br />

giveaways, and shopping.<br />

This year’s event is October<br />

5 at the Harris Center.<br />

humble beginnings, LDP has grown to be a<br />

The Gift of Kids Daycare and Preschool<br />

5130 Golden Foothill Pkwy. // El Dorado Hills // Business Park 1<br />

916-521-1835 // www.TheGiftOfKids.net<br />

Serving infants to private kindergarten<br />

Infant Lic. 093616199 // Pre-School Lic. 093616198<br />

My name is Jennifer Tommasini, the owner/director<br />

of The Gift of Kids Daycare and Preschool. I’ve<br />

lived in El Dorado Hills for 19 years and I have<br />

four children.<br />

My journey into the childcare field began in 1999 when I was<br />

left disappointed in my search for ”the right” childcare for my<br />

son. After going through many programs and with my daughter<br />

on the way (now attending Chico State), I began to reflect<br />

upon my family’s needs. It was then that I changed my career<br />

focus and ventured into childcare. My mission is to provide a<br />

nurturing, loving, safe and educational environment for every<br />

child.<br />

In September 2000, I opened my home to three newborns,<br />

two 2-year-olds and a 3-year-old. I immediately knew that<br />

this was my calling. Everything felt so natural. I went back to<br />

school full time for early childhood education and started my<br />

own preschool program that incorporated home-cooked meals,<br />

planned outings, and practiced an advanced curriculum with<br />

structured activities that fostered learning.<br />

In 2007 I opened a small pre-school with 60 families while<br />

continuing my in-home daycare. In 2010 I expanded again,<br />

bringing my preschool and in home-daycare under one roof-<br />

The Gift of Kids and Preschool is now located off Labrobe<br />

Road in Business Park 1. It has been a dream to serve so many<br />

children and give families the satisfaction I never felt when my<br />

son was in daycare. I pride myself on offering a safe place for<br />

families to bring their children.<br />

The Gift of Kids currently has 32 wonderful, loving,<br />

professional teachers and over 200 children. We provide care<br />

for infants, preschoolers and private kindergarten. Although<br />

the size seems large, the classrooms have a homey feel where<br />

the teachers truly care about each child’s development. We<br />

work together on communicating with parents and developing<br />

each child’s individual needs. It delights me that so many<br />

children have the opportunity to experience our program.<br />

We are proud that we remained open during the pandemic and<br />

have taken all protocols to the highest level with the kids and<br />

their families in mind.<br />

508 Gibson Dr., Ste 290 // Roseville<br />

916-781-4300 // bogardhealth.com<br />

Dr. Bogard has a long history in the health<br />

field. From an RN to a nurse anesthetist<br />

to an anesthesiologist, she spent almost<br />

40 years in the operating room. She was<br />

exposed to critical care, trauma, obstetrics, lots of on<br />

call hours and sleepless nights. As she entered her<br />

50's she found her own health starting to decline<br />

and sought out a healthy aging physician. After<br />

experiencing the benefits she sought out the fellowship<br />

of regenerative and healthy aging through the<br />

American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine.<br />

She opened an office in 2014 and continues to grow<br />

and expand her knowledge into this evolving field of<br />

medicine. Rather than prescribing medications and<br />

bandaging diseases she looks for the "root causes"<br />

and integrates each system in the body together. She<br />

also looks at environmental, genetic and lifestyle<br />

factors which result in "dis-ease". Her continued and<br />

expanding practice utilizes bioidentical hormone<br />

replacement, thyroid and adrenal optimization, GI<br />

healing, peptide therapy, ozone therapy, PRP hair<br />

therapy, as well as body contouring and weight<br />

management.<br />

With a career spanning over 40 years in the finance<br />

and wealth management industry, Christeen Reeg<br />

joined CAPTRUST in 2021. Her passion lies in helping<br />

layers. The Halo laser restores the glow that the sun, time, and stress<br />

have depleted from the skin. It effectively treats hyperpigmentation,<br />

uneven texture, enlarged pores, scars and fine lines and wrinkles<br />

with minimum down time. This may be used in conjunction with the<br />

Morpheus 8 for accelerated tightening and collagen stimulation.<br />

Claudia Cummings and a River District Plan for Folsom<br />

The City of Folsom is home to more than six miles<br />

of frontage on the American River and Lake<br />

Natoma. According to a recent City of Folsom<br />

Newsletter, our waterfront areas are poorly<br />

identified with limited access. Among her many other civic<br />

activities and contributions, Claudia Cummings responded<br />

to this problem and worked to organize a community<br />

group known as the Folsom River District Organizing<br />

Committee in early 2018. Under Claudia’s leadership as<br />

Chair, the Committee began work to develop a vision for<br />

the appropriate enhancement of the City’s riverfront areas<br />

for current and future residents. Later that year, the City<br />

Council approved an updated General Plan which included<br />

language regarding development of a River District<br />

Master Plan and the Organizing Committee conducted a<br />

visioning effort resulting in a Community Outreach Report<br />

discussing options for a plan going forward. Since then,<br />

the Committee has continued its effort to support a River<br />

District Master Plan and the City has begun the process<br />

of developing that plan for a waterfront that is widely<br />

recognized as an underutilized amenity for City residents<br />

and tourists alike. Claudia continues to remain involved in<br />

this important effort and a final Master Plan is expected to<br />

be completed by the end of next year.<br />

COOL STUFF<br />

Backyard<br />

BBQ<br />

Essentials<br />

by TERRY CARROLL<br />

It’s grilling season! Impress<br />

your nearest and dearest by<br />

purchasing these top tools that<br />

are functional and fun.<br />

Drip EZ Prep Tub<br />

If you like grilling, this<br />

tub—that also collapses<br />

for easy storage and<br />

doubles as a cutting<br />

board—is a must. Marinate<br />

any type of protein or<br />

veggie mess-free and<br />

store it without spillage. Need a place to chill<br />

some beer or soda? Yep, it does that too! $39.99<br />

at BBQGuys, bbqguys.com<br />

Rolling Grill<br />

Baskets<br />

I found these a while<br />

back, and here’s the<br />

bottom line: If I’m<br />

wanting to cook veggies<br />

or other small items on<br />

the grill without food<br />

falling through the grates, nothing else comes<br />

close. Add oil and seasoning, put your goods into<br />

the baskets, roll them around the grill, and you’ll<br />

be serving evenly cooked veggies like a pro in no<br />

time. $15.95 at Walmart, walmart.com<br />

Monogrammed<br />

Forged Steak Brand<br />

After a long day of<br />

wrangling cattle (grocery<br />

shopping!), you want to<br />

get home, get the grill<br />

going, and start cooking<br />

like you mean it. I can’t<br />

think of a better way to let the cowboys and<br />

cowgirls pulling up to your chuckwagon know who<br />

made the steak! Choose from single, double, or<br />

triple initials, and let the searing (and branding!)<br />

begin. $69.95 at Williams Sonoma, williamssonoma.com<br />

Q: What are the benefits of<br />

choosing a health and wellness<br />

center over a standard gym?<br />

A: The concept of wellness has<br />

evolved as a focus of optimal<br />

health. People want to be fit, but<br />

more so, they want to be wellrounded<br />

in their overall approach<br />

to health. Enter wellness. In<br />

addition to all the traditional<br />

offerings of a well-equipped gym,<br />

[wellness centers often] include<br />

medical-fitness components<br />

that utilize research on healthy<br />

aging with a focus on fitness<br />

biomarkers, functional strength,<br />

balance, athletic pursuits, bone<br />

health, disease prevention,<br />

recovery, and joint preservation.<br />

Physical therapists, strength<br />

and conditioning specialists, and<br />

trainers specializing in women’s<br />

health and the aging population<br />

may be available to help members<br />

achieve superior wellness, too.<br />

T<br />

rends come and go in home<br />

design, but one thing that never<br />

goes out of style is being ecofriendly.<br />

Whether it’s inside or outside,<br />

there are a variety of ways to keep your<br />

home looking cool while keeping the<br />

environment in mind.<br />

INSIDE<br />

It can be exciting to refresh your home’s<br />

interior with new furniture and décor;<br />

luckily, new and sustainable often go<br />

hand in hand. “Sustainability in furniture<br />

manufacturing can include using FSCcertified<br />

(Forest Stewardship Council)<br />

woods, textiles made from responsibly<br />

harvested and manufactured fibers, or<br />

recycled packaging, and reducing one’s<br />

overall carbon footprint in operations and<br />

manufacturing,” shares Christin Balzer,<br />

owner and principal designer at Haven<br />

Studios (haven-studios.com). Furniture<br />

Sustainable Design Solutions<br />

by EMILY PETER-COREY<br />

purchases often carry a hefty price tag,<br />

so choosing companies that align with a<br />

vision of protecting our planet goes a long<br />

way in making an impact.<br />

Balzer chooses to work directly with<br />

companies that produce home goods<br />

in a responsible way, including recycled<br />

materials. “These are not DIY but can be<br />

high-end artistic pieces that discerning<br />

homeowners invest their money in. It’s<br />

the perfect fusion of sustainability and<br />

a circular solution,” she explains. Haven<br />

Studios recently installed the chandelier<br />

pictured here from sustainable brand<br />

Kooij (dirkvanderkooij.com) in a Loomis<br />

home. It’s meticulously built from ribbons<br />

of molten recycled plastic.<br />

Eco-friendly can be budget-friendly<br />

as well. If new purchases aren’t an option,<br />

trips to local thrift stores are a simple and<br />

great way to purchase small and big home<br />

décor items. Plus, you’re often giving back<br />

when you spend your dollars at places like Snowline Thrift (snowlinehospice.<br />

org/thrift), Roseville Discovery Shop (facebook.com/discoveryshoproseville),<br />

and ReNew Boutique (acresofhopeonline.org/renewstores).<br />

For those who are also watching their heating and air conditioning bills,<br />

consider investing in a smart thermostat like Google Nest. Smart home<br />

devices can learn your habits and set a schedule accordingly to maximize<br />

your dollars. The best part is that you can adjust your thermostat from<br />

your phone so when you’re on your way home, you’ll be welcomed by a<br />

comfortable temperature.<br />

OUTSIDE<br />

Starting at the top, solar panel maintenance is key to getting the most<br />

out of your investment. Meghan Stimmler, certified solar sales professional<br />

at Solar Hut (solarhut.org), recommends monitoring your solar panels for<br />

when they produce power via an app connected to your system. “By doing<br />

this, you can set your appliances to run at<br />

[optimal] times,” she explains. Additionally,<br />

tree maintenance allows panels to soak<br />

up the sun the way they are intended to,<br />

so be sure to prune any trees close to<br />

your house annually. Lastly, cleaning your<br />

panels regularly is important. “Luckily,<br />

solar panels are angled when installed<br />

so most debris will slide right off, but<br />

leaves, bird droppings, pollen, fire soot,<br />

and even dust can block the sun’s rays<br />

from hitting the panel cells so keeping it<br />

clean will help improve your solar power<br />

generation. Usually a spray from your<br />

garden hose will do the trick,” Stimmler<br />

says.<br />

Returning to ground-level,<br />

consider drought-resistant and native<br />

landscaping. The heat we receive<br />

during summer can be brutal on heavy<br />

and even moderate water-use plants.<br />

Although a lush, green yard looks<br />

idyllic, there are many plants that create<br />

an attractive space while also saving<br />

on water and maintenance. California<br />

Haven Studios<br />

Native Plant Society’s online Calscape<br />

Sea Ranch Collection from<br />

Terra Outdoor Living<br />

tool (calscape.org) is a great resource<br />

for figuring out which plants should<br />

go in your yard. Type in your address<br />

and you’ll discover a variety of plants,<br />

from easy maintenance and partial<br />

shade, to ground covers and trees.<br />

What’s better than enjoying<br />

your sustainable outdoor space on<br />

sustainable furniture? Terra Outdoor<br />

Living (terraoutdoor.com) carries<br />

multiple products that are recycled<br />

or reclaimed and is committed to<br />

finding eco-friendly materials that<br />

meet their standards for durability,<br />

according to the company’s creative<br />

director, Whitney Critchley. Their<br />

Sea Ranch Collection is made<br />

from reclaimed teak and brings a<br />

streamlined and sleek look to outdoor<br />

spaces. For a more traditional look,<br />

consider the Woodside Collection<br />

that is crafted out of Envirowood, a<br />

durable, no–maintenance resin made<br />

with post-consumer recycled plastic.<br />

If you’re a fan of mid-century design,<br />

the ReCLIPS Collection is a perfect<br />

“nod to the past while embracing<br />

the future,” says Critchley. ReCLIPS<br />

seating is crafted from sturdy plastic<br />

lamellas made from 97% recycled<br />

household trash. Choosing highquality,<br />

eco-conscious furniture for<br />

your outdoor space is an investment<br />

in not only helping our planet, but in<br />

durable pieces that are built to last.<br />

Barbecue is like football: Some folks are born into a regional fandom<br />

they identify with and worship their whole lives. And then there are the<br />

onlookers who say, “Calm down, it’s just meat.” So, let’s get one thing<br />

straight: When it comes to barbecue, it’s never just meat. Whatever (and<br />

wherever…Kansas City, Hawaii, North Carolina, Memphis, South Texas,<br />

Central Texas, East Texas, West Texas, etc.!) your style may be, we can<br />

all agree that barbecue is delicious…and fundamental.<br />

In that spirit, we prepared a bucket list of the best barbecue in town.<br />

Pour yourself a glass of something cold, grab a big stack of napkins,<br />

and get ready to taste a carnivore’s rainbow of brisket, ribs, pulled pork,<br />

smoked chicken, and more, along with some seriously scrumptious<br />

sides. It’s time to get your grub on. Finger licking encouraged!<br />

J Wild’s Livery brings Texas-style<br />

barbecue to Historic Folsom with prime<br />

brisket from Creekstone Farms, half<br />

chickens, succulent ribs, and a whole mess<br />

more. The brisket is moist and juicy and a<br />

fan favorite for good reason. Get in early to<br />

get your fill! And don’t sleep on their sides;<br />

offerings like cowboy cornbread, charro<br />

beans, and slaw guarantee you’ll be too big<br />

for your britches by the time you leave! 614<br />

treasured foothills landmark and not just<br />

because the historic bar and restaurant<br />

serves up delicious barbecue (but it’s a<br />

surefire way to win hearts and stomachs).<br />

Set yourself down for a tasty half- or<br />

full- rack of ribs rubbed with 12 spice and<br />

served sauced with Red's own creation. Feel<br />

empowered not to share—it's your right to<br />

enjoy a tasty mess of ribs all by yourself.<br />

Hog Wild Bar-B-Que specializes<br />

in “low and slow” Texas-style barbecue,<br />

seasoned, and cherrywood smoked with<br />

sauce on the side (of course). The baby<br />

back ribs with a sweet rub are a clear winner<br />

and while their original sauce is the go-to,<br />

you also can’t beat their spicy or chipotle<br />

sauces. Oh, and don’t forget to sample<br />

Quick Dish specializes in authentic Brazilian<br />

barbecue (churrasco) and the BBQ plates don’t<br />

disappoint. Choose from picanha (Brazilian cut of<br />

steak), homemade sausage, tri-tip, salmon, chicken<br />

breast, or their latest (and dare we say greatest)<br />

offering: costela (Brazilian-style beef ribs that are<br />

seasoned with rock salt and cooked low and slow<br />

until they melt away from the bone). Whichever<br />

plate you pick, it comes with rice, French fries, black<br />

beans, and salad. For a meal to (really!) remember,<br />

make sure to order one of their refreshing<br />

beverages like mint pineapple juice, passion fruit<br />

juice, or cashew juice. 322 East Bidwell Street, Folsom, 916-<br />

Smokey Pit Barbeque has been quietly<br />

serving up delicious Texas-style ’cue for 10 years.<br />

Die-hard fans fight it out over the pulled pork<br />

nor can the chopped brisket. Oh, but the smokey<br />

chicken! You see the dilemma here. But tying it all<br />

together is the sauce—sweetly spicy and so good<br />

they sell it by the pint—and the quart! Note to self:<br />

my personal food pyramid. Just remember to<br />

Don’t be surprised to see a line of cars<br />

surreptitiously following Buckethead BBQ<br />

And you should see their trailer: It’s like a shiny<br />

RV buffet table of meat. Fans are all about the<br />

tender juicy brisket and killer pulled pork. Did<br />

we mention the sandwiches are BIG, the<br />

pickled onions are pink, the baked beans are<br />

ribs that are full of flavor. Sides? Try the baked<br />

beans—made with four kinds of beans, bacon,<br />

and chuck, and finished on the smoker—and<br />

triple-smoked macaroni and cheese. Honestly,<br />

why are we still talking? Clearly, they’re<br />

Hawaiian barbecue with a traditional style that<br />

hits you like a tidal wave. Starting with the classic<br />

plate lunch, take your choice of kahlua pork,<br />

chicken katsu, kalbi short ribs, or loco moco<br />

(white rice topped with a hamburger patty,<br />

fried egg, and brown gravy) and pair it with a<br />

couple scoops of rice, a scoop of Hawaiian mac<br />

salad, and shredded cabbage. Is that the ocean<br />

I hear? Bonus: Spam musubi is on the menu (if<br />

GRILLING<br />

TIPS<br />

The heart of grilling lies in the<br />

technique—it’s what separates the master<br />

grillers from the masses. Sure, recipes are<br />

important but skills matter most. Thus,<br />

here are nine tips for better BBQ.<br />

• Preheat your grill<br />

Preheat your grill with the lid closed<br />

for 10-15 minutes. With all the coals<br />

glowing red, or all the gas burners on<br />

high, the temperature under the lid<br />

should reach 500 degrees. The heat<br />

loosens any bits and pieces of food<br />

hanging onto the grate, making it easy<br />

to brush them off. Preheating your grill<br />

also helps prevent food from sticking<br />

to the grate and gets the grate hot<br />

enough to sear properly.<br />

• Keep your grill clean<br />

When bits of food are stuck to your<br />

cooking grate, and the grate is hot,<br />

clean it with a stainless-steel brush. This<br />

step is not only for cleanliness; it also<br />

prevents your food from sticking.<br />

# Keep the grill lid down<br />

Here are four important reasons why<br />

your grill lid should be closed as much as<br />

possible.<br />

• It keeps the grates hot enough to sear<br />

the food.<br />

• It speeds up the cooking time and<br />

prevents the food from drying out.<br />

• It traps the smokiness that develops<br />

when fat and juices vaporize in the grill.<br />

• It prevents flare-ups by limiting oxygen.<br />

• Grilling time and<br />

temperature<br />

By monitoring your time and grilling<br />

temperature you avoid overcooking<br />

your food. Use a timer! If you’re grilling<br />

in a colder climate or in a higher<br />

altitude, the cooking times will be<br />

longer. If the wind is blowing hard, it will<br />

lower a gas grill's temperature and raise<br />

a charcoal grill’s temperature.<br />

• Direct vs. indirect heat<br />

grilling<br />

Direct heat (when the fire is directly<br />

below the food) is best for relatively<br />

small, tender pieces of food that<br />

cook in 20 minutes or less. Indirect<br />

heat (when the fire is on either side of<br />

the food) is best for larger, tougher<br />

cuts of meat that require more than<br />

20 minutes of cooking.<br />

• Maintaining grill<br />

temperatures<br />

Most grills are designed to give you<br />

complete control over the heat inside<br />

of the grill. By having consistent,<br />

reliable heat source and proper<br />

venting, the grill can maintain low or<br />

high temperatures effectively. The<br />

dampers on the top and bottom of<br />

the grill control the airflow inside<br />

the grill. The more air flowing into<br />

the grill, the hotter the fire will<br />

grow and the more frequently you<br />

will have to replenish it. To slow<br />

the rate of your fuel burning, close<br />

the top vent as much as halfway<br />

and keep the lid on as much as<br />

possible. The bottom vent should be<br />

left open whenever you are grilling<br />

so you don’t kill your fire.<br />

Under normal circumstances, a<br />

typical charcoal briquette fire will<br />

lose about 100 degrees of heat<br />

over 40-60 minutes. A typical lump<br />

charcoal fire will lose heat even<br />

faster. Gas grills have individual<br />

control knobs so that you can easily<br />

regulate the heat, create different<br />

grilling zones easily, maintain heat<br />

levels as low as 200 degrees to over<br />

550 degrees, and shift from direct to<br />

indirect in minutes.<br />

• Tame the flame<br />

Too many flare-ups can burn your food.<br />

Keep the lid on as much as possible<br />

to limit the amount of oxygen inside<br />

the grill, which will help extinguish any<br />

flare-ups. If the flames are getting out<br />

of control, move the food over indirect<br />

heat temporarily, until they die down.<br />

Then move the food back.<br />

• Caramelization is key<br />

One of the biggest reasons for<br />

the popularity of grilled food is its<br />

seared taste. To develop this taste for<br />

maximum effect, use the right level of<br />

heat and resist the temptation to turn<br />

food often. Your patience will allow for<br />

caramelization, or browning, creating<br />

tons of flavors and aromas. As a rule,<br />

turn food only once.<br />

• Lighter fluid: no way!<br />

It's a liquid product that evaporates.<br />

Who wants that and its foul chemical<br />

fumes under their food? Chimney<br />

starters and lighter cubes are much<br />

cleaner and much more effective.<br />

Caramelized Onion &<br />

Goat Cheese Flatbread<br />

Cookie Skillet<br />

Baked Brie in Puff Pastry<br />

For a moment,<br />

albeit a brief<br />

one, you may<br />

feel like you’re in<br />

a Spanish tapas<br />

bar, enjoying a<br />

glass (or two) of wine while<br />

indulging in perhaps just<br />

one more small plate before<br />

exiting stage left and leaving<br />

the music behind. This<br />

was my experience at The<br />

Vine—the self-proclaimed<br />

“sassy sister” to Citizen Vine,<br />

a Historic Folsom favorite<br />

since 2016.<br />

Their motto, “pouring<br />

for the people,” means The<br />

Gambas al Ajillo<br />

“<br />

The ahi crisps were<br />

a highlight and<br />

far surpassed our<br />

expectations on<br />

flavor; the shoyu<br />

glaze, sriracha aioli,<br />

and sake avocado<br />

cream exploded in<br />

taste while the ahi<br />

melted away.<br />

”<br />

Vine certainly follows suit with an<br />

unpretentious ethos that makes<br />

both places great to sip and<br />

sample from a simple yet diverse<br />

menu. They also boast live music<br />

on Friday and Saturday evenings.<br />

What more could you want on<br />

date night?<br />

The wine list was expansive<br />

with international offerings from<br />

Chile, Argentina, France, and Italy,<br />

in addition to some local favorites.<br />

My plus-one and I deviated from<br />

our classic choice of Rombauer<br />

Zinfandel to try the Michael<br />

David Earthquake Zinfandel, a<br />

surprisingly tasty option out of<br />

Lodi. If you like full-bodied zins<br />

with flavors of dark plum, spicy<br />

clove, vanilla, and strawberry jam;<br />

a slight brown sugar nose; and a<br />

long finish, give it a try. Not a wine<br />

fan? Not a problem. The Vine also<br />

serves soju-based cocktails, beer,<br />

and mocktails, so everyone can<br />

enjoy a tasty sip.<br />

For tapas, we went all over the<br />

globe, including choices inspired<br />

by Europe, Mexico, and Asia.<br />

Deciding was difficult, but we<br />

opted to begin with the baked brie<br />

in puff pastry. Accompanied by fig<br />

jam, cranberry, and spiced nuts, it<br />

was easy to put in and hard to put<br />

down. You would not be wrong in<br />

Ahi Crisps<br />

thinking this would pair better with a glass of<br />

white wine.<br />

The caramelized onion and goat cheese<br />

flatbread was also enjoyable, with a drizzle of<br />

balsamic that pulled the flavors together.<br />

The ahi crisps were a highlight and far<br />

surpassed our expectations on flavor; the<br />

shoyu glaze, sriracha aioli, and sake avocado<br />

cream exploded in taste while the ahi melted<br />

away. Rest assured—this will be repeated.<br />

Finally, we tried the gambas al ajillo: large<br />

shrimp served in a cast-iron skillet with<br />

garlic, olive oil, and just a touch of spice. With<br />

warm crostini to dip, this was also a tasty<br />

choice.<br />

While enjoying our food and wine, the<br />

sound of live acoustic favorites filled the<br />

restaurant (perhaps just a micro-decibel<br />

too much), setting the tone for a relaxed,<br />

romantic evening. While this made it slightly<br />

hard to hear my date, who doesn’t love a live<br />

musician?<br />

Overall, The Vine stays true to the casual<br />

yet upscale vibe they’re known for. If you’re in<br />

the mood for good food and wine in a cozy,<br />

classy atmosphere with attentive service and<br />

live tunes, look no further.<br />

branched out and opened another café in Roseville: Julian’s<br />

Pastry Nouveau. If you enjoy pastries and desserts, you must stop by and try a few<br />

(or more!) of their house-made treats. A friend and I went for lunch and ordered<br />

the chicken salad (for me) and the ham & Swiss (for her)—served on freshly baked,<br />

flaky croissants. Savory and flavorful, with the perfect amount of seasoning, my<br />

chicken salad sub paired perfectly with the caramel macchiato (made using<br />

from-scratch vanilla syrup, locally roasted java from Folsom favorite Kingdom<br />

Coffee Roasters, and caramel drizzle). My friend ordered an affogato (house-made<br />

vanilla gelato drowned with fresh-pulled espresso) and quickly devoured her ham<br />

sandwich with béchamel (a creamy form of Swiss cheese), but not before she<br />

let me try it. Twice. (It was really, really good.) We couldn’t leave without<br />

having some sort of dessert, so we shared a few: the big-as-your-face<br />

chocolate chip cookie (fabulous!); and the torsade, which looked like<br />

a twisted breadstick and was filled with chocolate and a little custard<br />

(yummy!). There’s seriously something for everyone: tarts, brownies,<br />

scones, muffins, cinnamon rolls, breakfast sandwiches, avocado toast,<br />

and more. Order more than one thing; you’ll thank me later.<br />

Top Spots to Sip & Play<br />

by PAULINE ARROYO | photos by TAYLOR GILLESPIE<br />

One of the best ways to slip into the summer<br />

mindset is with a cold beverage, pub grub,<br />

and fun games. We scoped out the region’s<br />

top spots to eat, drink, and partake in some<br />

friendly competition—whether you’re with<br />

friends, family, or riding solo. Keep reading<br />

for 10 recommendations.<br />

Arcade Amusement <br />

Ready to kick your nostalgia into overdrive?<br />

Then grab your buds and head to Out of<br />

Order Arcade. This “beer-cade” is the ideal<br />

all-ages weekend spot with a jam-packed<br />

bar and by-the-hour gameplay. You’ll<br />

find old arcade favorites like Paperboy,<br />

a Star Wars Trilogy Deluxe restoration,<br />

Super Mario Bros., and more. Want a<br />

recommendation for the ultimate drinking<br />

game pairing? Order a round of 2 Towns<br />

Ciderhouse BrightCider and hit up the<br />

four-person Pac-Man game. Between<br />

gobbling up on-screen cherries and the<br />

refreshing hard apple cider, you’ll feel like<br />

you’re getting your daily dose of fruit in.<br />

13320 Lincoln Way, Auburn, 530-888-8081,<br />

Flippin’ Fun with Pinball<br />

Is there any greater thrill than when you<br />

save your pinball from game over with the<br />

perfect flipper maneuver? Add a thirstquenching<br />

beer served “das boot style”<br />

(aka, in a boot-shaped glass), and you’ve<br />

got Rocklin’s pinball wizard paradise: Das<br />

Flipperhaus. Warm up those thumbs for<br />

a retro revival, and order a stack of tokens<br />

alongside a local pint for a family-friendly<br />

escape from the heat. Though their tap<br />

offerings rotate regularly, you’ll likely find<br />

picks from local go-tos like Movement<br />

Brewing Co., Solid Ground, and Loomis<br />

Basin. If all that high-scoring works up your<br />

appetite, worry not! They have crave-worthy<br />

bar snacks like chili cheese dogs and mini<br />

pizzas, too. 4835 Granite Drive, Rocklin,<br />

Drinking<br />

Games<br />

Axe to the Max<br />

Become an axe-throwing legend at Rancho Cordova’s<br />

The Smart Axe. Invite a couple of your close pals and sign<br />

up for a throwing session. A professional axe tender will<br />

show you the ropes and guide you through all their safety<br />

protocols, so you have the best (and safest!) time. Or, if you<br />

want to tap into your inner Thor, join the club’s eight-week<br />

throwing league to sharpen your skills and win prizes. No<br />

matter your target, you’ll have fun testing your aim and<br />

enjoying a drink. The bar offers soda, rotating and canned<br />

beers, and wine. Take a break from target practice with a<br />

plate of savory teriyaki skewers, nachos, or ooey-gooey<br />

cheese curds. 11151 Trade Center Drive, Suite 106, Rancho<br />

Cordova, 916-389-0178, thesmartaxe.com/rancho-cordova<br />

On Your Marks, Get Set, Go-Kart<br />

Skip the sunburn and just burn rubber at The Apex (part<br />

of Red Hawk Resort + Casino). The all-electric indoor<br />

go-karts on a multi-level track will fulfill any thrill-seeker's<br />

need for speed. After passing your friends and battling for<br />

the fastest time, do a victory lap at the Apex Grill where<br />

you’ll find domestic draft beer staples like Space Dust from<br />

Elysian Brewing, 530 by Farmers Brewing, and Golden<br />

State Cider. Or, if you need a little pre-track supercharge,<br />

swap the alcohol for a Red Bull power-up. Whichever<br />

you choose, save room for the kitchen's injected donut<br />

holes—deep-fried bites of dough and crème, chocolate,<br />

or caramel-filled goodness that’ll certainly take you to the<br />

winner’s circle. 1 Red Hawk Pkwy, Placerville, 530-677-7000,<br />

redhawkcasino.com/apex-at-red-hawk-casino <br />

Ready Fore Par-Tee Time?<br />

Want all the fair weather of a fairway but with great<br />

drinks, tunes, and plenty of shade? Then there’s<br />

no better way to beat the heat than with a Topgolf<br />

adventure. For first-time Topgolf duffers, this controlled<br />

golfing game gives you all the fun of hitting a hole-inone<br />

without the legwork. Head up to your designated<br />

table overlooking an enclosed green and swing away<br />

at electronically tracked golf balls. You can play for<br />

who can shoot the farthest, the most accurately, or try<br />

your luck at puzzle-themed games. Just make sure to<br />

order one of their seasonal spring drinks, like the Key<br />

Lime 'Tini, Sunset Marg, or non-alcoholic Mango Cooler,<br />

alongside a burger and tater tots. 1700 Freedom Way,<br />

Roseville’s Final Gravity isn’t just a great brewery<br />

to sample over 400 unique brews, including ondraft<br />

refreshments and canned delights, it’s also<br />

the ultimate watering hole to chill out with a few<br />

board games. Ask Final Gravity’s knowledgeable<br />

bartenders for their weekly arrivals or<br />

recommendations based on your palate. Once<br />

you’ve found your perfect pint (like the crowdpleasing<br />

“Mexican Cutie” by Nitty’s Cider), head<br />

to the fully stocked game shelf. Challenge your<br />

bar mates to anything from a Jenga battle to<br />

chalk up your pool stick and bring the heat to<br />

the Placerville Public House. This home-grown<br />

regional spot is ideal for a filling lunch or latenight<br />

last call. Here you’ll find no shortage of<br />

craft beers, ciders, kombucha, and rare brews<br />

beyond what even the menu tells you. But if<br />

you’re looking for something outside the box to<br />

grease up your pool shot, go for the Hakutsuru<br />

“Junmai”—a full-bodied, crowd-pleasing<br />

sake with a smooth taste and easy finish. Don’t<br />

Powerhouse Ministries in Folsom (center).<br />

For over 30 years, Powerhouse<br />

Ministries in Folsom has been serving<br />

families and individuals struggling<br />

with addiction, abuse, and poverty with love<br />

and grace.<br />

The nonprofit is made up of several programs<br />

meant to inspire and empower people to rise<br />

above their circumstances, change their lives,<br />

and impact their community.<br />

• Powerhouse Women and Children’s<br />

Center is a two-year, no-cost, residential<br />

recovery program that provides women<br />

and their children the opportunity to leave<br />

addiction, abuse, and homelessness behind.<br />

• Powerhouse Community Care Center<br />

exists to assist individuals and families<br />

who need immediate resources, such<br />

as homeless prevention, medical care<br />

from the nonprofit’s free medical clinics,<br />

referrals to treatment centers, job readiness<br />

training, temporary and permanent<br />

housing, and more.<br />

• Powerhouse Leadership College is a twoyear<br />

residential internship program for<br />

men and women ages 18-24 that’s<br />

dedicated to presenting hope, healing,<br />

and on-the-job training to equip<br />

young leaders to impact generations.<br />

• During the week, outreach programs<br />

are available to the community,<br />

including Sunday night church,<br />

youth and children’s ministry, men’s<br />

and women’s small groups, and<br />

special events and activities designed<br />

to enrich the lives of those the<br />

nonprofit serves.<br />

“<br />

It’s the support of advertising<br />

partners like European Sleep<br />

Design that help give us the<br />

opportunity to give back to<br />

the communities we serve.”<br />

—Terry Carroll & Wendy Sipple<br />

our 20th year in<br />
