Mercy Health — Eastgate Occupational Health and Urgent Care “Eastgate Boulevard is ef- fectively complete.” That’s something Union Township Administrator Ken Geis was pleased to say at a re- cent township trustees meet- ing and something members of the motoring public will be pleased to hear. “The entrance ramp to east- bound state Route 32 should open up sometime before Thanksgiving, and we believe that the tunnel is going to also open then as well,” Geis said. “That will be an exit ramp from northbound Interstate 275 from (state Route) 125 if you wanted to head eastbound on state Route 32 east of the Jungle Jim’s (International Market at 4450 Eastgate South Drive) area.” Geis cautioned that it will not be until sometime next year that a lot of other road- work in the Eastgate area of Union Township will be fin- ished. “The Ivy Pointe Boulevard extension to Ai- choltz Road is underway,” Geis said. “The utilities are being in- stalled this year and the road will be complete next year. “Aicholtz underneath the interstate will really begin in earnest next year and they will begin tunneling under the in- terstate to complete that road all the way to Mt. Carmel,” Geis said. “The improvement there should take about two years and that will extend into 2016. “I’m not sure if it’s going to be the summer of 2016 or later, but at some point you’ll actual- ly be able to go from this loca- tion in the civic center (at 4350 Aicholtz Road) all the way to Mt.

There’s also the ripple effect, the additional jobs creat- ed, the need for banks to make deposits and houses that are built.” Van Sant described Mercy Health, with its economic im- pact and number of volunteers in Clermont County, as “a key ANDERSON FACILITY EXPANDING Mercy Health - Anderson Hospital recently celebrated its 30th anniver- sary. The hospital, which is at 7500 State Road in Anderson Township opened its doors August 1984 as an extension of Our Lady of Mercy Hospital in Mariemont. While the Anderson location celebrated three decades of operation, the Mercy Health - Rookwood Medical Center celebrated its one-year anniversary. The facility, which is at 4101Edwards Road in Oakley, began operation in the summer of 2013. Both facilities have had an impact on their respective communities. “The hospital is a viable part of the economy and (the) sustainable growth of a community,” said Jeff Graham, president of the Mercy Health east market. Mercy Health - Anderson Hospital is in the midst a $70 million expan- sion that began in 2013. The project includes expanded parking at the facility, atrium renovations and construction of a new five-story patient tower that will house 90 private rooms and incorporate 69,327 square feet of renovations to the existing hospital. The project, which will be completed in 2016, also involves expansion and renovation of the intensive care unit as well as renovation of the obstetrics and family birthing center. Graham said Mercy Health has had “a long-running partnership” with Anderson Township and the Forest Hills Local School District. Students at Nagel Middle School helped in the design of both the parking lot as well as a family waiting room, that is also part of the expansion project. “The impact of that facility and the medical office buildings have been tremendous,” said Steve Sievers, assis- tant administrator of operations for Anderson Township. “The hospital was a springboard for many of the developments along the Five Mile corridor.” Sievers said the hospital is one of the largest employers in the area. “It has been a development and quality of life driver (in the township),” he said. Nanette Bentley, director of public relations for Mercy Health, said the Mercy Health - Rookwood Medical Center was built to meet needs at that specific location, which serves the communities of Oakley, Hyde Park, Mt. Lookout, Norwood and Mariemont. “There wasn’t any conveniently located health care (facility) there, so we built the emergency department to meet consumer demand,” said Bentley. The facility is 24,000 square feet and houses an emergency department, physician offices and an imaging department. - By Forrest Sellers PROVIDED A rendering of the expansion at Mercy Anderson.

Last year, the MercyHealthClermontHospitalundertook a $2.5 millionexpansion and renovationof its emergency depart-ment. That project wasdesigned to improve effi-ciency and treat patientsfaster at a high level ofcare.

In June, the MercyHealthClermontHospitalopened an 18,000-squarefoot newly renovated be-havioral health facility.The 24-bed facility is de-signed to offer a compre-hensive approach to be-havioral health care thatpreviously didn’t exist. Itoffers acute care, partialhospitalization and inten-sive outpatient programsin a safe setting that pro-motes healing.

Clermont County Sher-iff A.J. Rodenberg saidthe latter project has like-ly helped his deputies be-cause more patients withmental health issues canbe held for observation sothat they’re not out wan-dering about the commu-nity.

Rodenberg said his de-partment gets calls “fromtime to time” when some-

one acts out at the hospi-tal’s emergency depart-ment. But overall, he saidhis agency has not seenany increased calls forservice with the expan-sions, and he said the hos-pital has benefited thecommunity.

Batavia Township Ad-ministrator Rex Parsonssaid the townshipdoesnotreceive tax dollars fromthe hospital because thatfacility, as a nonprofit, istax exempt. However, by

employing township resi-dents in theClermonthos-pital it has provided indi-rect economic benefits.

“Hopefully, during therenovations, they used lo-cal contractors too,” Par-sons said.

Although the hospitalhas no direct economicimpact on the village ofBatavia, Village Adminis-tratorDennisNicholssaidit offers employment op-portunities for residentsand has benefited the vil-

lage’s aging population.HeaddedabouthalfofBa-tavia’s 1,509 residents areretired.

Nichols also has a per-sonal connection to theMercy Health ClermontHospital. OnAug.15, 2011,hospital staff saved hislifewhenhewent intocar-diac arrest at his Bataviaoffice.

“Only 25 percent whogo through what I didmake it to the hospitalalive,” Nichols said. “Af-ter that, the next problemis brain damage.”

Nichols was back towork in six weeks and onfull-time duty withinthree months.

“I guess you could saythat I’m a very big fan ofClermont Mercy,” Nich-ols said.

TROY—Whenyouadvance toa district tournament at Felici-ty-Franklin, you can bank on alengthy bus ride.

The comfort of a Croswell isnot in the budget for a small,public school and the only wayyou can “go Greyhound” is ifyou bring the dog to hang out ofthe window.

On Oct. 25, the destinationwas Troy, north of Dayton,where the regional cross coun-try and volleyball gatheringsoccurred. Jared Boeckmannand Kaitlin Sharp tackled thecross country course outdoors,while the Lady Cardinals’ vol-leyball teamwas in the spaciousgym across the street.

Facing one of the betterteams in Division IV, JacksonCenter, Felicity-Franklin fellshort against one of the tallerteams theyhad facedall season,25-9, 25-8, 25-5.

Jackson Center had a decid-ed advantage in height and dis-tance.

“They’re 30 minutes awayand we’re two hours,” Smithsaid. “We had maybe 25 peopleand they had 500. The crowd

makes a difference.”Smith doesn’t blameayellow

busonthe loss.Thetruthwasaf-ter tournament wins againstCincinnati Country Day andFayetteville-Perry, the bar wasraised substantially with Jack-son Center.

“We ran into a wall,” Smithsaid. “They were a good team.Theywere better than us.Whenyou short, you try to improvise.We didn’t play like I thought wewould.”

Playing in the larger Troygym covered in orange-cladJackson Center fans, the veter-an coach thought his girls werestar struck at first.

It would be understandable.Even in years when they had abig hitter like Amber Lawrence(now at UC Clermont) the LadyCardinals weren’t able to ad-vance as far.

“Sectional is as far as we’vebeen,” Smith said. “This is the

TROY — It’s not an easydrive from Newtown to Troywith the construction in Day-ton, but after11yearsa fewde-lays don’t seem to matter.

That’s how long Amy Gillhas been at Miami ValleyChristian Academy coachingvolleyball. She came to the vil-lage when former AndersonHigh School principal MikeHallwasat thehelmofthenewschool that occupied the for-mer Newtown Elementary.

Since then, MVCA’s grownin students and facilities.

When Gill started the pro-gram she had freshmen andsophomores competingagainst full varsity squads.From there, she grew a gradeeach year until they finallyhad a senior class.

Now, in theirfirstyearbackin theOhioHighSchoolAthlet-ic Association, the Lady Lionshad a historic season that cul-minated in making the Divi-sion IV district final in TroyOct. 25.

“What a great way to comeback in, right?” Gill said.

After early tournamentwins against Xenia Christianand Lockland, the Lady Lionsran into a squad a little closerto the top of the net thanmanyof their Cincinnati competi-tors.With a decided height ad-vantage, Springfield CatholicCentral was able to defeatMVCA 25-10, 25-14, 25-14.

Gill’s girls wrapped up theseason 22-3.

“I would say we prettymuch dominated Division IVin Cincinnati,” Gill said. “Youcan’t ask for more than that.It’s awesome. These schoolsare big. It’s hard to competewith they have the size thatthey have. It was an honor toplay them, they did a greatjob.”

The loss didn’t stop the La-dy Lions from smiling andmany proud parents fromsnapping photos afterward.Muchof the school hadmadeaday of it in Troy asMVCA run-nersBradGrosjean andLauraVilardo competed in the re-gional cross country meet ad-jacent to the gym that morn-ing.

In addition to her distancerunning, freshman Vilardoplaysa little libero inhersparetime for Gill.

“We all came and cheeredfor her before the match andshe was able to make it over,”Gill said.

From this group, the veter-an coach loses just two seniors

UC Clermontvolleyball tied for 2ndin national tourney

McNicholas HighSchool’s volleyball teamfell short in its quest torepeat as Greater Catho-lic League Co-ed CentralDivision champions, butthe Rockets still hadplenty to celebrate aboutthe 2014 season. TheRocketswonanotherdis-trict championship be-fore falling to rival Alterin the regional tourna-ment. The team ralliedfrom late-season set-backs to play some of itsbest volleyball of theyear when it matteredmost.

Against a challengingschedule, the Rocketsstumbled down thestretch. McNick lostthreeof its final four reg-ular season games, andfour of its last seven. Theteamralliedtogetherandbounced back in time tomake a dominant runthrough the district tour-nament. The Rocketsswept their first fourpostseason opponents enroute to claiming the ti-tle.

The GCL Co-Ed Cen-tral Division crown wenttoRogerBacon this year.The teams played twohotly-contested five-gamematches.TheSpar-tans came out on top inboth to secure the title.

“We had an opportuni-

ty to win both,” saidRockets head coachDen-ny Murphy. “They werescrappy and came upwith some big plays.”

The Rockets, rankedsecond in the final En-quirerDivision II Coach-es’ Poll, lost to third-ranked Alter in the re-gional tournament. Thefuture looks promisingfor the program, whichwill graduate just threeseniors.While the contri-butions of Emily Bloem-er, Gabbie Latreille, andMorgan Cox will bemissed, the Rockets willreturn an experiencedsquad in 2015.

SophomoreAdrianEll

wasthird intheGCLCen-tral in kills with 196. Ju-niors Hannah Wuerfel,Sara Crooker, and Lau-ren Schmalz each fin-ished with over 142 killsand ranked in the topeight in the division.Wuerfel led the teamwith 249 digs. The Rock-ets must replace Bloem-er, the team’s top distrib-utor with 358 assistsfrom her setter position.Six-footers Schmalz, Ell,Carley Scales, and Bren-na Yanetti will give theRockets a formidable de-fense at the net next sea-son.

“We have a lot of kidscoming backwith a lot ofexperience,” said Mur-phy.

McNick finished theseason 17-9 overall, fall-ing toAlter in the region-al semifinal. It was thefourth straight seasonthe Rockets fell justshort of the state tourna-ment. The Rockets havewonfourstraightdistrictchampionships. Theteam will be expected tokeep that streak intact in2015. The goal will be tobreak through to the re-gional final, and beyond.

“For this team nextyear to get over thehump, I think it just takesexperience,” said Mur-phy.

furthest we’ve been in 20years. We can’t seem towin a district.”

With the loss of fourseniors, Smith hopes tobuild aroundmany of thegirls that walked off thecourt that Saturday nightin Troy. Playing their fi-nal game for the LadyCardinals were BethanyPerkins, MiKayla Hamil-ton, Allie Rodriguez andMarissa Cochran.

Among those sched-uled to returnarecurrentjuniors Ashley Moore,Brittany Drake, TaylorHowerton, Paige Cum-mins and Morgan Smith;current sophomores Lau-ren Mitchell, BrittanyStutz and Tia Louiso andcurrent freshmen ErinJennings, Raina Presly,Grace Kirkham-Hartley,

Kortnie Bradburn andFaith Howes.

Many of them have al-ready switched sneakersand are back on the hard-wood dribbling a basket-ball. Again, what theylack in size, theymake upfor in heart.

“We are a scrappyteam; solid and athletic,”Smith said. “JacksonCenter is a good ballteam. We just need tostretch some of them.Weneed some 6-footers.”

For the athletes of Fe-licity-Franklin, if theyend the season on the out-skirts of Dayton, they’vedonewell. In the last yearalone, the girls basket-ball team made the re-gional at TippecanoeHigh School (a littlesouth of Troy) and thesoftball team has madeseveral trips over theyears.

Most Cardinal fanscan tell you where to eat

in Tipp City or the finerpoints of Troy. The girlsprobably have the con-struction areasmemoriz-ed and have seenmore ofnorthbound I-75 than oneneeds to see in a lifetime.

It’s the price of suc-cess.

There are many advantagesto this mail-in method such asno lines, weather concerns ordriving and parking concerns.Thebest part is I can sit at homewith all the information in frontof me and take my time intelli-gently filling out the ballot andmail it in early.

“I have never understood

early voting. I worked as a pilotfor 46 years, and never had aproblem with getting an absen-tee ballot. Early voting made itpossible for me to go down tothe Board of Elections ratherthan mail in the ballot, andwatch the lines of people beingbrought in with people to ‘help’them get registered and vote.Manywere quite open about be-ing students not from the area,and quite possibly registered tovote elsewhere. Made me wish

for a purple inkwell, where peo-ple could receive a mark thatsaid they had already voted, butcould only be used once. I be-lieve voter fraud is one of thelargest issues facing our Re-public this election cycle.”

D. B.

“I did already vote throughan absentee ballot. I started thisone year when I knew I was go-ing tobeout of town. butwhen itbecame available as a means ofearly voting I opted for thismethod in almost every elec-tion. It givesme time to sit withthe ballot and then take time todo some research on the candi-dates and issues so I can makeas informed a decision as possi-ble.

“Also, I can then ignore allthe negative ads, mailers andsuch that seem to inundate theelection as the actual in personelection grows closer.”

C.S.

“Idonotbelieve there shouldbe the option of voting early. Ifyou trulycareabout theelector-al process and value the resultsof your choices then you willmake this day and your vote apriority, not an inconvenience

so easily replaced.“We’ve created an entire

generation of people (yes vot-ers)whoreallydon’t carewho iselected unless they (the voter)can somehow get more publicassistance. But they’ll vote to-day because they saw a bill-boardorgot apostcardorheardany one of a dozen TV or radioadds every half hour, on thesame day they decide to casttheir early ballot.

“Election day is always thefirst Tuesday in November, andwe have from 6:30 a.m. until7:30 p.m. (13 hours) to get to ourpolling places to cast our votes.Is this really so hard that wedon’t evenneed adecent excuseany more (i.e. military duty)?And by the way, check my IDand everyone else’s too. As a le-gal citizen of these UnitedStates I have a right to votehere, a right to choose my rep-resentation, anda right to shapemy future.”

Early voting in Clermont Countystarted Sept. 30 for registeredvoters.

Grandma said, “Whenyou’re dead, you’re dead for a

long time.”Well, maybenot all thetime.

I was deadonce and need-ed two back-to-back openheart surger-ies as doctorsmassaged myheart until itfinally re-started amidst

some very tense momentsabout 10 years ago. I was,needless to say, extremelyelated when they started meup again as I had a secondchance to do a few things dif-ferently before I'm dead again.

Lying in the hospital in-tensive care unit with moretubes coming in and going outthan I could count, I started tohave these flashbacks into mylife. I remembered when I wasa kid and I felt life was ... al-most forever, as 70 to 90 yearswas a long time. Plus, I hadmore important things like

girls and sports, along withwhat I was going to do thatweekend, to think about. Im-portant things!

Besides I had life alreadyfigured out: I was going tofinish high school, go to col-lege, get a good paying job,and get married. I would helpraise the family and retire...th-en travel before they handedme a cane, a walker or awheelchair. That was it!

I remembered going to aworkshop after college onhuman relations, and one ofthe exercises that we had towrite was what we wanted toput on our tombstone after wedied. That was the start of myown self-discovery of what mylife was going to be. What did Iwant people to rememberabout me? That question hasalways stayed with me overthe years. I’m lucky that my“tombstone” hasn’t needed tobe carved in stone yet.

As you know or have expe-rienced by now, life changes soquickly and like a sail boat youeither wait for whatever cross-wind comes your way to move

you on your journey or youcan actually decide where youwant to go and use the ship’sengine to stay on course.

I believe you can either bedown on the field with a foot-ball in your hands playing, orsitting up in the bleacherswaiting for the game to end. Ihave an old football sitting onmy computer desk that is areminder that I’m not watch-ing the game, but actually onthe field as the quarterbackcalling the plays. Admittedly,as quarterback in my owngame, I have lost concentra-tion on what was importantand have fumbled the ball afew times.

Hopefully, your game planincludes scoring touchdowns,but either way you shouldkeep your eyes on the gameclock. Remember...whenyou’re dead, you’re dead for along time.

Cincinnati’s Union Terminal,which houses the Museum

Center, hasbeen men-tioned a greatdeal lately.

Although itis an architec-tural landmarkfull of interest-ing exhibitsand a must seesight for out-of-town visi-tors, for fam-ilies it is also a

place to share memories ofearlier days and make plansfor future outings.

The Cincinnati HistoryMuseum has Cincinnati inMotion, sometimes called thetrain display. However it isCincinnati in miniature whichfeatures models of CrosleyField, Union Terminal andmany neighborhoods as theylooked in the early 20th centu-ry.

On a family visit, tell aboutvisits made to the CincinnatiZoo in its earlier days and, if

old enough, trips to CrosleyField, Coney Island or LunkenAirport when it was the mainairport for Cincinnati. Near theend of the museum, there isPublic Landing, a reproducedriver town including the Queenof the West riverboat. Cos-tumed interpreters may bethere to add information.

In the Museum of Scienceand Natural History are oppor-tunities to plan for future out-ings. The mound builder exhib-it could lead to a visit to theintriguing Serpent Mound or toFort Ancient to see NativeAmerican earthworks about2,000 years old. A good oppor-tunity to share thoughts andmemories is at the space agedisplay.

It is small and an excellentopportunity to expand on itsince it occurred during ourlife time. That could lead to afuture visit to the Neil Arm-strongMuseum.

Next, there is the popularCave and Ice Age that couldlead to a visit to MammothCave. The cave has a wheel-

chair accessible path. Ofcourse, Dino Hall is popularand it is near the exit to themuseum.

Duke Energy Children’sMuseum, in the lower level, ismeant for those 10 and under.Energy Zone andWater Worksare popular areas as well asTheWoods, an area for chil-dren 8 and above which fea-tures a new aquarium. It may alead to a trip over to Kentuck-y’s Newport Aquarium.

In addition to its three mu-seums, it contains the five-story Robert D. Lindner Fam-ily Omnimax Theater, specialexhibits and Tower A, the orig-inal main control tower. Forthe train fan of all ages, TowerA is like a train museumwherethey can get a view of thetracks still in use today, andexplore the artifacts showingUnion Terminal’s rich history.

On Nov. 7, the annual Holi-day Junction will open. It willhave the large, popular, modeltrain display, part of which wasthe Duke Energy display for-merly located downtown. Holi-

day Junction also has a kids'train ride and Santa Claus.

If there are visiting Reds orbaseball fans, as you leave theUnion Terminal, you can pointout that the 1869 Red Stock-ings, the first, openly, all pro-fessional and best team of its

time, played near the bottom ofthe fountain. There is a markerat the bottom of the fountainnear the north parking lot thatgives more detail.

I lost my brother-in-law atmidnight last month. As one

of his grand-childrenwrote onFacebook,“Pa-Pa wentto Heavenlast night.”

The ironyof his deathfrom Alz-heimer’s wasthat Ron wasone of the

brightest men I knew. He wasan auditor for a Fortune 200petroleum company; and,when he retired, he decidedto go into the insurance busi-ness, as he loved sales. Hewas very successful.

His progression throughthe many stages of this dis-ease was a five-year night-mare. At first, it was just aslowing of his activity level,and later, a slowing of hisspeech. This was most unusu-al, as Ron would always “talkyour right arm off” to getacross his point of view.

We watched and listenedas his cognitive abilityslowed. Slowly, he began toforget recent events. Hewould repeat his conversa-tions when he forgot that hehad already had that dis-cussion.

Eventually, he would beginto ask how we were related tohim, and where we lived.Much later, he would repeatthese questions over andover. I always listened, andslowly answered each of hisquestions each time it wasasked; not to do so wouldhave been an insult to hisdignity.

“You’re one of the goodguys,” he would say, and hewould pat me on the shoulder.

Death did not come easily.He knew he was losing con-trol of his destiny. He wouldbecome angry and lash out.

“I don’t know what iswrong with me,” he wouldcomplain.

Cincinnati Nature Centerhas launched the “Milkweed toMonarchs” initiative in effortsto raise awareness for theplight of the Monarch butter-fly.

Once commonly founddancing over our fields, themonarch butterfly populationis in jeopardy. The past dec-ade alone witnessed a 97 per-cent decrease in the monarchpopulation. A petition wasfiled by a group of environ-mental organizations askingthe U.S. Fish andWildlifeService to declare the mon-arch butterfly a threatenedspecies.

“The No. 1 reason we arewitnessing such a dramaticdecrease in the monarch pop-ulation is due to the loss ofhabitat,” said Jason Brown-

knight, Cincinnati NatureCenter’s director of conserva-tion and stewardship.

“More specifically, it is theloss of the milkweed plantrequired by the monarch lar-vae to feed upon,” he added.

Cincinnati Nature Center isleading the efforts to informthe Greater Cincinnati regionof both the critical story of theMonarch and what actionspeople can take to make adifference. Through the“Milkweed to Monarchs” ini-tiative, Cincinnati NatureCenter is encouraging individ-uals and organizations to plantmilkweed, offering education-al and stewardship programsto increase the monarch’shabitat, and providing oppor-tunities to learn more and getinvolved.

“The monarch has beenstudied universally – from itscaptivating metamorphosis toits amazing 2,500-mile migra-tion, this important pollinatoris an indicator species thatmust be saved,” said Bill Crea-sey, Cincinnati Nature Cen-ter’s chief naturalist. “We arereaching out to individuals,business, schools and otherorganizations to help make adifference,” he said.

Brownknight encourageseveryone to get involved byplanting native milkweed andnectar-bearing flowers, usingpesticides responsibly, sup-porting organic gardening,agriculture and landscapingand to learn more.

Yesterday my throatand head werestuffed up and the

last thing I wanted to dowas work in the herbgarden. Mother Nature

was coop-eratingwith theweather, soI knew Ihad to startgetting thegardencleaned upfor winter.I wasgrumblingsince my

task seemed to loom solarge. The weeds hadsprung up just abouteverywhere. I was takingmy garden plaque downwhen I stopped to reallyread it once again. Myattitude changed immedi-ately. I thought you’denjoy seeing the verse Iread that put me in apositive frame of mind.

Lebanesevegetarian greenbean stew

I love this recipe fromLebanese friend, HelenSarky, an AndersonTownship reader. A ver-sion of these beans aregoing to be served at theupcoming “A taste ofLebanon” held at St. An-thony’s of Padua churchon Victory Parkway. Thefeast is on Sunday, Nov.23, from noon to 6 p.m.These are generations-old recipes, treasuredheirlooms. They’ll alsohave dancing and musicand carryout, as well.Check out the sitewww.stanthonyofpaduachurch.com or givethem a call at (513) 961-0120. I’m already hun-gry…

1pound fresh or fro-zen green beans, cut into2” lengths

2 tablespoons olive oil1/2 cup sliced thinly

onions1 tablespoon minced

garlic (opt)1/4 teaspoon ground

cinnamon or to tasteSalt and pepper to

taste2 teaspoons chopped

fresh mint1-1/2 cups diced toma-

toes1 cup water or chicken

stock1 tablespoon lemon

juice

Heat oil over mediumheat until hot. Add onionsand sauté until cara-melized (3 minutes); addgarlic and sauté another2 minutes. Stir in cinna-mon, salt, pepper andmint and keep stirring.Add tomatoes, water andlemon juice and keepstirring. Add beans andbring to a boil. Reduce toa simmer, cover pan andcook until tender, about20 minutes. Serve over abed of cooked rice.

Cauliflower pureeAccording to the foo-

dies, cauliflower is thenew kale. I just harvest-ed some Jerusalem ar-tichokes from the gardenand roasted those withsome cauliflower andBrussels sprouts. Theywere a delicious anddifferent side dish. Butyou know what? Cauli-flower can stand on itsown as a nice puree to goalongside that Thanks-giving turkey. Lower incarbs than potatoes, thispuree can be done sever-al hours ahead and re-heated.

2 heads cauliflower,stems and leaves re-moved, florets cut up

Lemon juice to taste1/2 stick butter or

substitute or more totaste

Half & half or whip-ping cream - can be lowfat half & half

Salt and pepper totaste

Chopped parsley forgarnish

Either steam the cauli-flower or cook in boilingsalted water until softbut not mushy. Drainvery well, return to potand shake over high heatto get rid of any excessmoisture. Now either putit in processor or beatuntil smooth in mixer. Ifusing processor, pulseuntil it’s smooth as youlike. Beat in lemon juice,butter and half & halfuntil it’s the consistencyyou want. Usually 1/2 cupof liquid is sufficient, butit depends upon the sizeof the cauliflower. Sprin-kle with parsley for col-or.
