If you have ever driven by a home that was so special that
you wondered what it must be like to live in it or wondered
what the interior looked like, then you can appreciate why
so many people who drive by this particular Newtown
home slow down as they pass by.
Many residents consider the home of Charles F. Speidel
one of the most beautiful homes in Newtown. Built in 1934
on 16 sprawling acres, the house stands out because of its
three gables. Made of fieldstone and gorgeous chestnut
clapboards (the trees are now extinct), the exterior of the
house is uniquely beautiful year-round.
Mr. Speidel is the third owner of the house. He purchased it
in 1966, eventually adding the third gable. Oh, and theres
a barn on the property, as well. The house features eight
bathrooms, five bedrooms, a living room, a dining room,
two dens, two offices, a bar, a kitchen with sunken dining
area, a workshop, a two-level studio apartment complete
with a kitchenette, a cozy living room and a spiral stair-
case, which leads to a bedroom and bath, and a garage.
The interior design is absolutely stunning. It is a house that
never seems to end rounded doors open to unexpected
hallways and charming rooms.
The house of three gables
With its three gables, the architecture of this house is so distinctive,
and the fieldstone and chestnut clapboards only add to its beauty. Left,
throughout the home are many inviting places to stop and relax awhile.

As soon as you enter the house, you
notice the rounded archways, the wide-
plank wood floors and windows filled
with panoramic views, no matter what
room you are in. A stately grandfather
clock stands tall in the foyer, and the liv-
ing room with its pink- and dark-rose vel-
vet furnishings draws you into the heart
of the home.
Theres a story about everything in this
house, including the massive Steinway
piano that originally delighted audiences
at an opera house in Rochester, N. Y.,
where Mr. Speidel hails from. There are
also fireplaces everywhere with custom
ironwork, and some of the ceilings are 18
to 20 feet high, with skylights to a star-
splattered universe.
We did some major renovations in
1966, said Mr. Speidel, a perfectionist,
whose grown daughter playfully calls
him the Commander in Chief. When
his architect, Jim Hancock of Ridgefield,
contacted a builder to do the renova-
tion, the contractor was stunned by the
exquisite paint job Mr. Speidel had doneon one of the many glass-paneled doors
that lead from one room to another.
The builder was afraid to recommend a
painter for the rest of the work; it was
that impeccable. With architects, build-
ers, and painters paying close attention
to detail, the workmanship in the house
is beyond compare.
Then came the interior designers, friends
of Mr. Speidel and his late wife, Phyllis.
Only the finest wall coverings and area
rugs grace each of the rooms. Custom-
made bookshelves with rounded glass
inserts and bookcase-lined hallways lead
from one fascinating area of this invitinghome to another. What is so surprising
is that in spite of its 5,950 square feet,
there is a charm and warmth to the
place that beckons you to stay, relax and
be comfortable, no matter what room
youre in.
My favorite room in the house is my
office, said Mr. Speidel, a retired partner
of Qualitron Corporation, which designs
and fabricates quality-control equipment,
of which Photronics is a spin-off. Its
not a surprising favorite, since the room
is very masculine with a heavy wrap-
around desk, fine leather chair, custom-
made mahogany bookcases and antique
accents. An avid golfer and photographer,
he has decorated the office with photos of
favorite golf-course views. Not your week-
end golfer by any means, Mr. Speidel has
an elaborate setup of nine putting greens
on his property. In summer, the greens
are as smooth as velvet.
I hold an annual black-tie putting con-
test here, said Mr. Speidel, who has golf
trophies throughout the house. Off the
master bedroom, theres an overly large
two-story cedar closet with mahogany
counters, deep drawers, shoe racks, mir-
rors and dressing tables. Its bigger than
most average living rooms. On one of the
shelves, there are at least a dozen wide-
brimmed, floppy straw hats, reminiscent
of the ones worn by Scarlet in Gone with
the Wind. Said the considerate host,
Oh, those are for the ladies for the put-
ting-green contest.
With photography as a hobby, there are
collections everywhere. More than 30photos of family members are spread out
in an impressive display on of the grand
piano in the living room. Mr. Speidel
plays piano and, according to his daugh-
ter, he plays it very well.
While his office may be his favorite
room in the house, he also enjoys the
cozy lower level of the bleached-cedar
kitchen, where a huge fieldstone fireplace
would dominate the room if not for the
expansive window and window seat.
Considering that the ceiling in this part
of the kitchen reaches a height of 20 feet,
its almost an oxymoron to call it cozy,
but the warmth of the deep rose- coloredfabric covering the padded window seat,
the gorgeous antique chairs, the vintage
area rug and fireplace make you want to
snuggle up close by the fire and look out
at the woodlands winter scenes.
What is so special about this house of
three gables is that it is as inviting and
charming on the inside as it is on the
outside. No wonder people driving by
drive more slowly as they pass by this
grand home.

While many local mothers must cajole their
youngsters into eating organic, healthy
meals, Margherita Aloi, executive chef and
owner of two premier Italian restaurants in
Fairfield County Aloi in New Canaan and
Il Palio in Shelton isnt faced with this
problem. In fact, three-year-old Ariannas
first foods were a variety of bite-sized por-
tions of vegetables, fruits and even seafood.
Shes a very, very good eater, Margherita
said.
When Arianna was nine months old,
Margherita fed her broccoli rabe, a some-
what bitter and pungent-tasting green that
even many adults dont find palatable. I
would boil it first, she said, then chop it
all up and saute it with olive oil. I ts still one
of Ariannas favorite things to eat.
As a mother, she also proudly pointed out
that Arianna loves to consume seafood. Her
favorite fish, she said, is a special kind of
cured salmon she, herself, created. I give
her small pieces and she absolutely loves
it, she said.
Snacks for daycare are typically cheese and
crackers. However, the cheese is not pro-
cessed and the crackers are not filled with
corn syrup and other unhealthy ingredients.Arianna loves Manchego cheese, which is
a Spanish cheese made from sheep milk,
Margherita explained. She also brings tar-
alli with her. This is a special kind of cracker
from Puglia, a place located in Italys south-
ern region. Unfortunately, taralli is difficult
to find locally, so she relies on friends to
purchase them for her family at specialty
Italian food shops in Manhattan.
Operating two restaurants with her hus-
band, Cliff Pereira, Margherita struggles
to juggle work and family life. However,
they agree that eating dinner together, atleast during the weekdays, must be a prior-
ity. Margherita said that when they return
from the restaurant, they always make a
home-cooked meal. I dont care how late
it is sometimes its nine or 10 oclock
at night we sit down with Arianna, she
said. Coming from Italy, its how I was
brought up. Last night we had steak and
asparagus.
During the week, Arianna assists her moth-
er in preparing the food. She sits on the
kitchen counter while were cooking, and Ilet her put the salt and pepper in the salad,
she said. If theres something that needs
stirring, I let her do that, too. This is time
that we spend together.
Although she spends her days and night
creating menus, cooking and preparing
fine Italian cuisine at two restaurants,
Margherita is never too tired to turn on the
stove in her own kitchen. After all, it was in
her own familys kitchen, in the hills of the
Piedmont in the small town of Tucci, Italy,
that her passion for cooking was ignited.
While attending Italys prestigious Culinary
Institute of Barolo, she was recruited by
Pino Luongo, a prominent New York restau-
rateur and owner of Le Madri, to be part of
a program featuring specialty cooking from
different Italian regions. At the age of 18,
she started working for Mr. Luongos cor-
poration as a fresh pasta-maker and moved
up to become executive chef in 1998. A
few years later, she opened her own Italian
bistro, Arezzo, with Christopher Mazzilli.
The way I cook is very simple, Margherita
explains. I use only the freshest ingre-
dients. For example, I am very particular
about where our cheese comes from. We
import it all from Italy.
Asked to work as a part-time consultant by
the owner of Bel Mare restaurant (which
she later bought and renamed Aloi) in New
Canaan, she vividly recalls her first visit
there. While riding in a car sent by the
restaurants owner, she was impressed by
Connecticuts lush scenery. She called her
husband and told him, Honey, I think we
have to move here.
A talented painter, as well as chef, Margherita
is drawn to beautiful colors. This is evident
in the array of colors and textures that
comprise her creative menus for the two
restaurants, and her cooking at home. I
like to be creative, and its important for me
to present dishes that are visually appeal-
ing, she said.
And, as a mother, Margherita feels that this
is the key to her daughters willingness to
try a variety of foods. Those who share
a meal at Aloi or Il Palio might suggest,
though, that the quality of the cooking also
has much to do with it, too.

A home fireplace conjures images of cozi-
ness on a cold winters day, where warmth
and relaxation is provided away from the
stresses of the world outside. But fireplaces
can also be sources of destruction, injury
and, in extreme cases, death. This I know
first hand.
A few years ago, I had embraced the winter
fun of a frigid January day. After skating on
a frozen pond, my husband and I made a
fire, warmed our feet and drank hot choco-
late. It had been a perfect way to spend a
chilly winter day. Perfect until our garage
burned down two days later.
A woman who cleaned our house swept the
ashes from the fire two days after the fire
had burned out into a garbage bag and
discarded it in a plastic garbage bin next
to our detached garage. I hadnt thought to
tell her to not clean the fireplace, and she
wanted to do a thorough job.
Five hours later, a neighbor, looking out a
window, saw our garage on fire and called
the fire department. I came home from
work to a charred garage. But everyone
was safe, and while flames had come close
to our house, the fire department had been
called quickly enough to prevent damage toit. Needless to say, I thanked our neighbor
profusely.
The simple, preventive measure of not
removing the ashes would have changed
the outcome. I am aware of how fortunate
we were that my dog had not been locked
in the house, and our neighbor had ran-
domly looked out a window she seldom
uses. For many people, the result of not
practicing basic fireplace safety can have
devastating consequences.
According to Greenwich fire chief Peter
Siecienski, there is an average of 300 calls
per month during the winter, most of which
are related to heat sources and are prevent-
able.
People need to be cautious with the ashes
from fireplaces, said Chief Siecienski.
Weve had calls from people who have
vacuumed ashes and, days later, the vac-
uum cleaner is on fire. Ashes should be
brought directly outside and put into a steel
container.
Just because a fire is out doesnt mean the
ashes are out, added Greenwich deputy
fire marshal Rob Natale. Even if the ashes
are not glowing and are not warm, they
need to go into a steel container. The times
weve responded to a homeowner wakingup to find the side of their house on fire
because of discarding ashes in the trash can
are too numerous to count.
The type of wood used in the fire and what
materials are put into the fireplace can lead
to unsafe conditions.
During the holiday season, we have calls
from people who have started fires by
putting wrapping paper or parts of the
Christmas tree in the fire, said Chief
Siecienski. Pine trees have sap, and the
needles burn quickly and become hot fast.
Chimney fires can spread horizontally into
the walls and create house fires.
Newspaper can be used to start the fire,
just dont continue to add paper because
this can lead to other areas outside the
fireplace catching on fire, said Fire Marshal
Natale.
Carbon monoxide and smoke detectors are
essential when using a fireplace. We have
been vigilantly working to let the public
know the hazards of carbon monoxide.
When wood is burned, carbon monoxide is
produced, which is odorless and colorless.
Carbon monoxide can leak into the house
if the chimney flue or damper is blocked or
there is a cracked brick or fire liner.
Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning
can be similar to the flu or can be just a
slight headache felt over a few days. The
carbon monoxide levels can go up quickly,
and people have died in their sleep, said
Chief Siecienski. Look to see the life span
of the sensor on carbon-monoxide detec-
tors and change batteries on both carbon-
monoxide detectors and smoke detectors
every time the clocks change. And keep the
carbon-monoxide detector outside the liv-
ing area in the hallway, not directly next tothe fireplace, to be accurate.
Hiring a licensed and certified chimney
cleaner for an annual inspection and clean
can prevent many problems. Creosote
is produced when wood is burned, said
James Ball of James Ball Chimney Service in
Stamford. This is a substance resembling
roofing tar. When it builds up to an eighth
of an inch, it needs to be cleaned. When
creosote builds up, it catches on fire. Loose
debris starts shooting out of the chimney,
and your chimney will resemble a roman
candle.
Warning signs that your chimney needsto be cleaned include water dripping inside
the chimney, and when fires are smoky and
have an odor, said Mr. Ball. Once a maxi-
mum of a half a cord of wood has been
burned, the fireplace should be inspected.
And always burn good, hard wood, such as
oak and cherry that has been seasoned out-
side for at least a year. Softer woods such as
pine create more creosote.
For care of ashes, Mr. Ball recommends
allowing a bed of ashes to build up to one
inch, as this helps insulate the floor of the
fireplace and makes the next fire easier to
start. Once over an inch, ashes should be
swept into metal containers only.
And in the spring, old ashes can be sprin-
kled onto garden beds and lawns for fertil-
izer, he said.
James Ball Chimney Service offers free
inspections and can be reached at 203-975-
9242. Chief Siecienski said there are no
foolish questions, and encouraged residents
to contact their local fire departments with
any concerns.

A gifted chef, Brian has reinvented the
classic cheesecake recipe, creating cheese-
cakes with such sublime texture that the
sensational creaminess could make one
swoon with pleasure. The menu is like a
diary of decadence deep, dark German
chocolate, luscious Irish cream, lively
lemon, spicy, sweet apple cinnamon. There
are at least 45 delectable interpretations of
cheesecake, each one more enticing thanthe next, including lavender honey, ama-
retto, mocha, double chocolate, pineapple
swirl, sweet potato, and, perhaps, the most
perfect of all combinations white choco-
late raspberry.
The original home of Stockbridges Gourmet
Cheesecake and Delectables is in Shelton.
When Brian and Lisa opened this store,
they created a charming cafe-like atmo-
sphere, where patrons could enjoy not only
the excellent cheesecake and other sweets
but wonderful quiches, soups, sandwiches,
salads, coffee and tea, with a unique spe-
cials list of lunch and dinner dishes offered
every day.
We love what were doing, says Lisa.
This is our passion; we really enjoy all of
it creating the custom wedding cakes,
serving delicious dishes. This business is
almost like Im entertaining in my own
home. I think its important to note that
while we are known for our cheesecakes,
Brian prepares the greatest food as well.
His breakfast specials are wonderful; he
makes awesome Caribbean French toast,
inspired by our trip to Disneyland!
Brian adds, We really do have some nice
choices: our freshly-made lentil burgers are
very popular, and people seem to love our
Stockbridge pasta. I make it with bowtie
pasta, sundried tomatoes, goat cheese,
portabella mushroom and grilled chicken.
Lisa chimes in Its so good; but you
should taste his fried chicken and the beef
Wellington!
Its funny, muses Lisa. We werent plan-
ning to open another store, but fate kind
of intervened, and, now, here we are about
to open in our beautiful new location in
Woodbridge! Jim Urbano came into our
Shelton store and liked everything that we
were doing. He asked us to consider open-
ing a second location in his building in
Woodbridge. Jim felt our operation would
go over very well in this area.
Jim and his wife, Diane, are such great
people, adds Brian, They welcomed usinto their building and have helped so
much in creating a really gorgeous space.
We call it Stockbridges Cheesecakes New
England Bistro and Bakery. Our plan is to
open in February, and we are so excited!
Brian continues, saying, Jim had so many
ideas how we could make our new location
be like a comfortable, yet elegant, upscale
home. The dining room will be called The
Woodbridge Room, and Jim found these
amazing, huge oak doors that were sal-
vaged from one of the buildings at Yale.
We can slide these doors to close them,
creating a beautiful private space for any
type of function.
I really think this room is so warm
and welcoming, adds Lisa, like a New
England Colonial home! Its a wonderful
spot to enjoy any of our breakfast dishes,
which will be served all day, meet friends
or business associates for lunch, bring the
family for dinner or enjoy something sweet
with a cappuccino or espresso. We will do
many of the entrees offered in Shelton, but
Brian is going to work his magic creating
signature dishes for this location with a
New England flair. One of his specialties is
a really wonderful New England-style clam
chowder. We have a liquor license for this
location, so that will allow us to have fun
creating new desserts!
The entire space gleams and glows with
natural light. The bakery is cozy and invit-
ing, with a beautiful shade of terra cottadrenching the walls, and cozy tables for
settling in and savoring a luscious scone,
muffin or cookie, or, of course, a slice of
the celebrated cheesecake with a cup of
coffee, tea or freshly made juice. Well
be baking more breads here in the new
location, says Brian, which will be a nice
addition to our menu, along with the birth-
day and wedding cakes and cheesecakes.
And at some point, we hope to have drive-
through service, adds Lisa, which will be
a nice convenience for our customers.
We will do off-site catering for our cus-
tomers, as well as having The Woodbridge
Room available for parties, says Lisa. Weare just so thrilled to be opening here in
Woodbridge, and expanding on what we
love to do, making delicious food and mak-
ing our customers happy. We cant wait to
welcome everyone to the new location!
