Arecentaccident thatkilledamomandherdaughter, outonan evening walk in ColerainTownship, serves as a remind-er of the importance of pedes-trian safety.

Jessica Lutz, 29, and hermother, Patricia Lutz, 65, diedafter being struck by a carwhile they were out walkingnear their home Oct. 12. An in-vestigation is pending.

According to an April 2014report by the U.S. Departmentof Transportation’s NationalHighway Traffic Safety Ad-ministration,4,743pedestrianswere killed and about 76,000were injured in traffic crashesin the United States in 2012.

One hundred fifteen ofthose deaths occurred in Ohio.

That’s one pedestrian killedevery two hours, and one in-jured every seven minutes.

The NHTSA reported that70 percent of the fatalities didnot take place at intersections,and the vast majority, 89 per-cent, happened when theweatherwas clear, not raining,snowing or foggy.

The majority, 70 percent,also took place at night.

Municipal law typically re-

flects Ohio Revised Code4511.50, which requires pedes-trians towalkon the left sideofthe road, facing traffic, if nosidewalk is available.

If there is a sidewalk, how-ever, pedestriansare supposedto walk on it and not in thestreet, according to ORC4511.50.

Pedestrians, which includewalkers and runners, must

cross the street at a crosswalk,and if none is available, mustyield to traffic.

The Indian Hill ExemptedVillage School District doesnot have a problem with stu-dents walking to and fromschool since it is largely dis-couraged.

“Because Indian Hill does

FORREST SELLERS/THE COMMUNITY PRESS

Students at Indian Hill Primary School board buses at the end of the day. The Indian Hill Exempted VillageSchool District encourages most of its students to ride the bus or ride with their parents as opposed to walkingto school or home. This is primarily because of the lack of sidewalks near the schools.

PEDESTRIANS,how safe are you?By Kelly [email protected] STEPS FOR SAFETY

The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway TrafficSafety Administration offers theses reminders for pedestrians:»Walk on a sidewalk or path whenever one is available.» If there is no sidewalk or path available, walk facing traffic, on the

left side of the road, on the shoulder, as far away from traffic as pos-sible.» Keep alert at all times; don’t be distracted by electronic devices,

including radios, smart phones and other devices that take your eyesand ears off the road environment.» Be cautious night and day when sharing the road with vehicles.

Never assume a driver sees you.» Cross streets at crosswalks or intersections whenever possible.» If a crosswalk or intersection is not available, locate a well-lit area,

wait for a gap in traffic that allows you enough time to cross safely,and continue to watch for traffic as you cross.» Stay off freeways, restricted-access highways and other pedestri-

an-prohibited roadways.» Be visible at all times. Wear bright clothing during the day, and

wear reflective materials or use a flashlight at night.

Charles Spence Faxon IIIwas feisty and competitive, thekind of guy that would drop tothe floor and do 100 push-ups ata moment’s notice, wore a cow-boyhat everywhereandwasev-eryone’s best friend.

Faxon, the co-founder andpresident of the Cincinnati en-ergybrokeragefirmEnergyAl-liances Inc., died Oct. 16 aftersuffering complications from aheart attack. He was 63.

“He was one of the all-timecharacters I ever met, he wascompletely unique,” said hisfriend, Dan Deters.

Faxon,ofBatavia,woreasig-nature Paladin hat straight outof old Clint Eastwood movies.

He was a music lover whowent toWoodstock; sawElvis inLasVegas; and tookhis youngerbrother to theBeatles inCincin-nati.

“There were 150 people atthe funeral who lost their bestfriend,” Deters said. “I havenever met anyone like that.”

Faxon co-founded the Syca-more Township-based EnergyAlliances with brother JohnFaxon and partners Bill Grafeand Mark Bishop in 1985. Themultimillion-dollar business of-fers lower-cost energy prices.

Under his watch, the firm –which hasmore than100,000 ac-counts mainly in SouthwestOhio – focused on putting cli-ents first.

Spence Faxonwas proud andoften proclaimed: “We’ve beenable to saveourcustomers tens-of-millions of dollars since westarted.”

Deters worked for Faxon,but described him as a mentor,more than boss.

Faxonwasborn inCincinnatiin 1951 and grew up in IndianHill. After graduating from theUniversity of Cincinnati, hewent into real estate.

Faxon entered the energybusiness in the early 1980s asco-owner of Energy Cost Ana-lysts, a Cincinnati energy man-agement and consulting firm,and also served on the Mayor’sEnergy Task Force under for-mer Cincinnati Mayor DavidMann.

Faxon’s utility market know-ledge was a game changer onthe regulatory front.

not have sidewalks lead-ing up to the schools, weencourage all of our stu-dents to take the bus be-cause we want to keepthem as safe as possible,”said Andrea Brady, direc-tor of communications forthe district.

“Almost all of our stu-dents take the bus or aredriven.”

However, when stu-dents do find it necessaryto potentially face traffic,for example those who arein athletics, they are suffi-ciently prepared.

Susan Savage, crosscountry coach at IndianHill High School, said shefrequently reminds herstudents about road safe-ty.

“(While running) weface traffic whenever pos-sible, and there are certainroads where we run singlefile,” she said via email.“We try to run as much aspossible on the bike trailandsideroadswhere thereis less traffic.”

TIPS FROMWALKERSThe Community Press, in its Oct. 22 Cha-troom question, asked readers for safewalking tips. Email your thoughts to [email protected]:“Walk/run facing traffic – and step asidewhen you see traffic coming. Wear brightcolored clothing (even reflective clothing)to assure you are easily seen by oncomingvehicles.”

C.G.“When walking along any roadway I al-ways, always, always walk on the left sideagainst traffic. At least that will give me afighting chance to see if someone in a caris drifting onto the shoulder and righttoward me. If a person is walking on theright side of the road, the only warningthey have of imminent death or maiming isthe fateful and oh-so-painful feel of metalon skin and bones. When walking in ornear an active roadway I assume that I aminvisible to the car and take the personalresponsibility to get out of their way. If it isdark or dusk I wear reflective clothing or avest. I also keep in the forefront of mybrain the simple fact that in a car vs. pedes-trian contest, the car (or truck) will alwayswin.”

M.J.F.“I really like to walk and consider it aperfect non-damaging, low cost, exercise.After leaving a job that provided me withthe opportunity to frequently take verylong walks in new places, I tried severalways to use our public roadways and side-walks to see Anderson from a new per-spective. Now, I have a volunteer positionthat can keep me on my feet for hours,

and, so far, help me keep those ‘unemploy-ment inches’ from requiring a new ward-robe.“I don’t know what time of day this tookplace, but obviously, if it was at night, wehave all seen pedestrians who seem cluelesswhen it comes to wearing highly visibleclothing or reflective belts if walking atnight. Walking on the side of the road,facing traffic, in most cases allows the walk-er to determine an oncoming threat. Ihaven’t mastered selecting routes at alltimes without sharp bends in the road, butam extra cautious if there is not enough sidearea to allow me to move out of the way,on the side upon which I am walking. InAnderson Township, many of our subdivi-sion streets have sidewalks, for which wehomeowners pay extra taxes. I have a ques-tion for all those who seem to feel thatwalking in the street, even when there aresidewalks, is somehow a pedestrian preroga-tive. Why?“By the way, as winter approaches, walkingbefore sidewalks are cleaned, or using theplowed streets because someone hasn’tcleaned their sidewalk, is a really good wayto put a driver in an awkward and undesiredposition in already hazardous driving condi-tions.”

Don Brown“I walk a lot but I always walk in daylightfacing oncoming traffic. I move off the roadwhen a car approaches. I prefer to walk onside streets where there are sidewalks.Walking at dusk or later scares me. Thereseems to be more cars (rush hour) and fasterdrivers at that time of day.”

VETERANS DAY EVENTS

Tempers flared at theMadeira City Councilmeeting Oct. 27 as thecouncil voted to send Is-sue 13 to the ballot withunanimous opposition.

Issue13wason thebal-lot Nov. 4 and if passedwould add an amendmentto theMadeira City Char-ter that would make thetrain depot, HosbrookHouse and MuchmoreHouse part of a “historicdistrict.”

Many members ofcouncil havebeenagainstIssue 13 being on the bal-lot since it was firstbrought before council.The council approvedplacing it on the ballot asa “matter of procedure.”

“How can we addsomething to somethingwe don’t have defined byour city?” Councilman

Kenneth Born said at theOct. 27 meeting. BecauseMadeira does not have ahistoric district, theamendment gives thecitynothing that it canen-force.

If the amendmentwere to pass, the citycould clarify or nullify itwith another amendmentor through legal action,City Solicitor BobMalloysaid.

Resident Doug Oppen-heimer, a member of thecitizens’ group behindthe amendment, said hehas plans for anotheramendment that wouldcreate a historic districtandacommission toover-see it.

During the publiccomment portion of themeeting, resident ToddWoellneraccused thecityof hiding documentsabout how the city ob-tained the historic houses. Woellner has ob-

tained five letters abouthow the city got thehouses from CleoHosbrook, which he saysshow she was forced todonate them.

“I was under the im-pression that we werecollectively seeking thetruth. I will simply notcontinue to be part of aprocess designed bymembersofcouncil tode-liberately mislead ourcommunity,” Woellnersaid.

Oppenheimer alsospoke against the resolu-tion.

“The (resolution) isthe absolute most shame-ful resolution that I haveseen in almost 45 years inthis community,” he said.

Oppenheimer accusedMalloy of hiding the rec-ords about thehouses andwriting false informationinto the resolution.

“You are making per-sonal attacks on people.This is not the forum forthat, Mr. Oppenheimer,”Vice Mayor MelisaAdrien said, after othersfailed to subdue the yell-ing.

Oppenheimer movedon to point out more falseinformation in the resolu-tion.

“It is entangled withmistruths. It is mislead-ing. It contains someone’spersonal fantasies. It iswritten in the hope thatthe Madeira electorate isstupid. The author of thismisleading and obnox-ious document shouldstand and be identifiedfor authoring such ashameful document,” hesaid.

Born and Mayor MikeSteur said they asked forthe resolution opposingIssue13 to be added to theagenda.

Footballpairings

SYMMES TWP. — Football coachEric Taylor remembers the dayword got out about Prince Sam-mons, a highly recruited 6-foot-8junior two-way lineman playingfor unbeaten Cincinnati HillsChristian Academy. It happenedwhen Sammons was a freshman,before he played a single down onthe field.

“A football scout that I knowwas interested in some of ourguys. Prince kind of stands out,and he caught the attention of thescout,” Taylor said. “He askedmewhohewas. I said itwas ourwaterboy; he wasn’t eligible to play yet.And we laughed about it. So hestarts texting that you need towatch out for CHCA’s water boy.”

Sammons’ improbable risefromwater boy to one of the mostsought-after college footballrecruits in the country is merelythe latest twist in a tale that beganin Nigeria, where Sammons wasknown as the tall one namedPrince Micheal, a manchild in theLagos region whose heart was asbig as his frame.

Sammons, anatural athlete andnimble for his size, has a 7-footwing span andweighs 268 pounds,according to Taylor. He has morethan 100 tackles and nearly 10sacks in two seasons for the 10-0Eagles. A second-team all-MiamiValley Conference selection as asophomore, he is a national top-50prospect in the 2016 class with

scholarship offers fromAlabama,Auburn, Georgia, Ohio State,Penn State, Tennessee and others,17 in all.

“Football is fun,” Sammonssaid. “It’s great to be around otherkids like me and be part of theteam.”

He’s been playing football twoyears for the two-time MVC co-champions. Prior to that, he hadnever heard of the sport, thinkingthe subject was soccer when itwas first introduced in conversa-tion.

In Nigeria, he was very famil-iar with soccer, a first sportingpassion that he never outgrew.Healso loved basketball.

At home, he had his favoritefoods, including curry chicken.He had two parents, who lovedhim. He had a way of life whichwas the only thing that he knew.He had a way out of Nigeria, if hewanted it, through an Americanbasketball scout who connectedhimwith a high school in theUnit-ed States where he could furtherhis education, learn skills andplaybasketball. TheyoungPrincewanted it.

But he lost all of it, includingboth parents.

Coach Taylor said Sammons’mother and father died in sepa-rate events as he was in the proc-ess ofmoving to theUnited Statesin searchof abetterwayof life forhis family including nine siblings.All the original plans fell throughwith the high school in Marylandwhere he was planning to attendclasses and play basketball.

“He’s apparently been througha lot,” coach Taylor. “And hewound up with us.”

The journey started inWiscon-sin, where he lived temporarilywhile experiencing difficultywith the enrollment process. Itended at CHCA after arriving inCincinnati by bus.

He was dropped off at a streetcorner andpicked upbypeople hedid not knowwhowere connectedto the private Christian academy.

At that point, he had a schoolwilling to take him but no home tohouse him, until the couple thatpicked him up eventually decidedto take him into their home.

The Indian Hill girlshave collected CincinnatiHills League and districttitles in recent years buthad to settle for second-place at the district meetOct. 18. At the regionalrun, IndianHill were11th.

“The girls have beenleague champions four ofthe last five years,” Sav-age said. “This year wewere plagued with someinjuries. We lost (senior)Kelli Gerlinger to a stressfracture.Shewasour two-three runner.”

Things started to getdicey for Mount NotreDame midway throughthe third set when Ursu-line surged toa four-pointlead at 20-16.

That’s when senioroutside hitter SydneyMukes sandwiched twoof her 14 kills around anacebysenior setterJessi-ca Towle to trim the def-icit to 20-19.

“Just confidence,”Mukes said. “That’s beenmymotto all year and ourteam’smotto. Confidenceand don’t stop believing.All the time. Believingthat we’re in it.”■

The Cougars finallytied thegameat 23-23andjunior outside hitter ErinMcCarthy put MNDahead for good with anace. Junior middle block-er Dani Szczepanski thenended thematchwith herfifth kill.

That had a lot to do withit.”

Mount Notre Damecontrolled most of thefirst two games after Ur-suline raced to a 4-1 leadin Game 1.

“Our coaches pre-pared us so well for thisgame,” Towle said.“They’re always givingus the best criticism theycan this whole week andthey’ve really been on usabout doing the littlethings right and I reallythink we managed to dothat this game.”

COLUMBUS—Asit triedto hang on to a one-goallead in a state semifinal,the Mount Notre Damefield hockey team wasmade painfully aware ofthe talent of ShakerHeights’ Kasidy Ander-son during the game’smost crucial momentsFriday at Upper Arling-ton.

The two-time all-stateplayer, who will play forNortheastern University,setup thegame-tyinggoallate in the second half andscored the game-winnerwith 3 minutes, 5 secondsto go in the first overtimeas Shaker Heights beatthe Cougars 2-1.

The Cougars, who alsowere state semifinalists ayear ago, finish 14-6.

“(Anderson) made agreat play at the end,”coach Beth Vonderbrinksaid. “Overtime it’s any-one’s game. Our biggestadjustment was in tryingto be able to stop (Ander-son). At the same time, it’shard to mark her up.”

Mount Notre Dametooka1-0 leadwith20min-utes, 15 seconds left in thefirst half. Sophie Sikora

passed it in on a penaltycorner to Caroline Warn-ing, who got it back to Sik-ora. Sikora then knockedit past goalkeeperAudreyAnderle for the goal.

The Cougars had fewopportunities throughoutthe remainder of regula-tion, but a defense led bysenior goalkeeper AllyBenz, senior defendersTess Meyer, AbbySchwarz and Sarah Pis-ciotta and juniordefenderMadison Titus helpedthem keep the lead untilthe 57th minute.

Benz,whowas all-statea year ago, finished with13 saves.

Shaker Heights had 15penalty corners com-pared to just one forMount Notre Dame.

“It’s not the first timethe other team has had itdown in our end a lot,”Benz said. “We’ve beendown the overtime roadbefore, too, but we defi-nitely all workedwell as aunit to get this far.”

Mount Notre Dame,which lost to Gahanna Co-lumbus Academy 1-0 inovertime in a state semifi-nal a year ago, seemed onthe verge of hanging onbefore Shaker Heights fi-nally broke through.

With 3:50 to go in thesecond half, Andersontook a pass from MarciaBrown off a penalty cor-ner and passed it to Jessi-caMorford, who smashedone past Benz to tie it at 1.

With 4:25 to go in over-time, Mount Notre Damehad its best opportunity toscore since its first goal,but Anderle and the Shak-er Heights defensethwarted the scoringchance.

On Anderson’s game-winner, she dribbleddown the left side of the

field, moved around a de-fender and shot it pastBenz.

“Our goalkeeper madesome great savesthroughout the game,”Vonderbrink said. “Weheld them until there wasabout three-minutes andsomething left. Theyplayed their hearts out.”

Notre Dame Academyhas made five appear-ances in the state tourna-ment, with its best finishcoming in 2004 when itwas the state runner-up.

A publication of

I was recently listening to aradio show that featured one ofthose “If you don’t love Amer-ica, then leave” types.

Superficially, every Amer-ican – or person of any nation-ality really – can identify withthe sentiment on a superficiallevel. However, let’s dig a bitdeeper and ask ourselves, isunconditional love for ournation really patriotic?

Sure we should love ourcountry. Does that mean it isperfect? Absolutely not. Doesit mean it is wrong to criticizethe government? Absolutelynot. Does it mean we shouldagree with all things that hap-pen in our society, or that thegovernment does, just because

we feel that toquestion isunpatriotic? Ihope not!

When I wasgrowing up inBrazil, themilitary dicta-torship used toencouragepeople to putjingoistic win-dow stickers

on their cars. One of themwas“Brazil: Love it or Leave It”.My Aunt, who lived in Englandand was no fan of the regime,once went to a Brazilian TradeFair near Oxford and, chilling-ly, found that sticker pasted tothe inside of the window of her

car. She joked that the SecretPolice were not so smart, be-cause she had in fact left Bra-zil some time before!

Of course, it was an inter-esting message: Dissent is notallowed, so if you disagree, welabel you as someone whohates the country – more thanunpatriotic –– and you shouldleave.

In the United States, wewere given freedoms by theConstitution, which allow us tospeak our minds, and disagreewith the status quo. I might notagree with your point of view,but I will fight for you to beable to present your ideas inpublic. In fact, I know thatmany of our active military

and veterans feel the sameway, because they are, in fact,spilling blood to defend thatvery freedom of speech andthe freedom to think and ex-press our ideas, as well asfreedom of religion and otherAmerican ideals.

My point, then, is this: neverconfuse dissent with lack oflove for our nation, nor dis-agreement with governmentpolicy with unpatriotic behav-ior. Blind belief in governmentand blind acceptance of policyis what lead to Hitler’s Germa-ny.

If you live in a Democracy,and you love your country,participation, discussion, dis-sent and agreement all form

the fabric of our society.As long as we share the

common goal of making thingsbetter – for as many of us aspossible – then we share thelove of our nation. It is tooeasy, and the tactic of tyrants,to label those with whomwedisagree as lesser patriots thanus. We are a society with greatintentions and a great future.

As soon as we legislate forthe benefit of narrow interests,and tell people who disagreewith us that they are unpatri-otic, we have are less than wecould be. And we are weakeras a result.

Cincinnati’s Union Termi-nal, which houses the MuseumCenter, has been mentioned agreat deal lately.

Although it is an architec-tural landmark full of interest-ing exhibits and a must seesight for out-of-town visitors,for families it is also a place toshare memories of earlierdays and make plans for fu-ture 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, ifold enough, trips to CrosleyField, Coney Island or LunkenAirport when it was the mainairport for Cincinnati. Nearthe end of the museum, thereis Public Landing, a repro-duced river town including theQueen of the West riverboat.Costumed interpreters may bethere to add information.

In the Museum of Scienceand Natural History are op-portunities to plan for future

outings. Themound builderexhibit couldlead to a visitto the intrigu-ing SerpentMound or toFort Ancientto see NativeAmericanearthworksabout 2,000years old. A

good opportunity to sharethoughts and memories is atthe space age display.

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-strong Museum.

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 and Water Worksare popular areas as well asThe Woods, an area for chil-dren 8 and above which fea-tures a new aquarium. It may

a lead to a trip over to Ken-tucky’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, theoriginal main control tower.For the train fan of all ages,Tower A is like a train mu-seum where they can get aview of the tracks still in usetoday, and explore the arti-facts showing Union Termi-nal’s rich history.

On Nov. 7, the annual Holi-day Junction will open. It willhave the large, popular, modeltrain display, part of whichwas the Duke Energy displayformerly located downtown.Holiday Junction also has akids' train ride and SantaClaus.

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 itstime, played near the bottomof the fountain. There is amarker at the bottom of thefountain near the north park-ing lot that gives more detail.

Oct. 30 questionDid you or will you vote

early this year, or will youwait until Election Day? Why?

“I have voted via the mailon absentee ballots for thepast 8 years or so. The ballotis available ahead of timefrom Hamilton County viaphone or www.votehamil-toncounty.org.

There are many advan-tages to this mail-in methodsuch as no lines, weatherconcerns or driving andparking concerns. The bestpart is I can sit at home withall the information in frontof me and take my time in-telligently filling out theballot and mail it in early.Every year I see that hun-dreds of people stand in linedowntown for early votingat the board of elections.They are in line and myballot has already beencounted.”

T.D.T.

“I do not believe thereshould be the option of vot-ing early. If you truly careabout the electoral processand value the results of yourchoices then you will makethis day and your vote apriority, not an inconve-nience so easily replaced.

“We’ve created an entire

generation of people (yesvoters) who really don’t carewho is elected unless they(the voter) can somehow getmore public assistance. Butthey’ll vote today becausethey saw a billboard or got apostcard or heard any one ofa dozen TV or radio addsevery half hour, on the sameday they decide to cast theirearly ballot.

“Election day is alwaysthe first Tuesday in Novem-ber, and we have from 6:30a.m. until 7:30 p.m. (13hours) to get to our pollingplaces to cast our votes. Isthis really so hard that wedon’t even need a decentexcuse any more (i.e. mil-itary duty)? And by the way,check my ID and everyoneelse’s too.”

CH@TROOM

THIS WEEK’SQUESTIONThere is a proposal in the Ohiolegislature to keep schoolsopen year-round. Is this agood idea? Why or why not?

Every week we ask readers aquestion they can reply to via email.Send your answers tormaloney@community press.comwith Ch@troom in the subject line.

Here’s a fact:Government is too big

I read with interest BruceHealey’s article, “The factsand just the facts” in refer-ence to my article, “What haschanged” about the size ofgovernment.

Mr. Healey failed to men-tion some facts that havecaused the growth of govern-ment and are paid for by thetaxpayer.

A few examples are: cronycapitalism, Solyndra solarreceiving $535 million, Telsaelectric cars $465 million,Fisker Motors $529 million,123 Battery Co. $249 million,Abound solar $400 million,Beacon Power $43 million,and 50 other crony compa-nies, most of which have gonebankrupt or are close tobankruptcy.

Government bailouts likeFannie May $93 billion, Fred-die Mack $51 billion, GMunion bailout $30 billion,

streetcars where bus trans-portation exists like Cincin-nati $105 million and manymanymore. Earmarks neverdiscussed for bridges to no-where and billions more paidfor by the taxpayer.

Government entities thatshould not even exist like, theDepartment of Educationwith common core $70 billiona year, Federal college loans$1 trillion, all of this extragovernment money is builtinto our telephone bills, ourelectric bills, our grocerybills, our maintenance bills,fuel bills, hotel bills, taxibills, hospital bills, and everyother thing that we buy.

This means that we paydouble for everything wepurchase and that we receiveonly half of our pay checks topay the visible and hiddentaxes to pay for government.

Wemust cut the size ofgovernment and our deficit.

Weight loss seminars coming to Mercy

Yesterday my throatand head were stuffed upand the last thing I want-ed to do was work in theherb garden. MotherNature was cooperatingwith the weather, so Iknew I had to start get-

ting thegardencleaned upfor winter.I wasgrumblingsince mytaskseemed toloom solarge. Theweeds hadsprung upjust about

everywhere. 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.Not only that, but when Icut back the eucalyptus,thyme and horehound,those powerful herbsthat help with respira-tory ailments, my headand throat cleared upnicely. Lesson learned!

Helen Sarky’sLebanesevegetarian 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.and the menu will alsocontain kibbee (the mainmeat dish of Lebanon),hummus, vegetarianfalafel, stuffed cabbageand grape leaf rolls,among other traditionalfavorites. These are gen-erations-old recipes,treasured heirlooms.They’ll also have dancingand music and carryout,as well. Check out thesite www.stanthonyofpaduachurch.com orgive them a call at (513)961-0120. I’m alreadyhungry…

1pound fresh or fro-zen green beans, cutinto 2” lengths

2 tablespoons oliveoil

1/2 cup sliced thinlyonions

1 tablespoonmincedgarlic (opt)

1/4 teaspoon groundcinnamon or to taste

Salt and pepper totaste

2 teaspoons choppedfreshmint

1-1/2 cups diced to-matoes

1 cupwater or chick-en stock

1 tablespoon lemonjuice

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 puree

According 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 to

tasteChopped parsley for

garnish

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.
