    Best Vintage/Antique Shop  Porch Swing Pickings | 307 Lincoln Street

    On a quiet street in Old Town Roseville waits a shop withunique turquoise doors welcoming passerbys. Thismother-daughter owned boutique sells a rare collection

    of handmade and vintage items designed to put a personaltouch on décor.

    Known as Porch Swing Pickings, the new antique emporium isthe latest infusion of energy into the city’s most historic quarter.

    The Porch Swing is located at 307 Lincoln Street, beaconingto visitors with inviting blue doors that are hard to miss. In-side are work pieces on sale from local vendors. The shopis filled with painted furniture, floating shelves, rustic signsand other wood and glass touches. It was started by SallyLaVergne and her daughter, Jen. The two women were readyto become dealers of top-quality shabby chic treasures, butfound themselves being put on wait lists at every store theyapproached that hosted multiple vending agents. The Abei-

     jons decided to open their own shop, with their own assem-blage of creative personalities. Within 6 weeks, Porch SwingPickings was up and running.

    The shop currently displays pieces from 9 different vendorson the first and third weekends of every month, with itsdoors open from Thursday to Saturday during those time-frames. Its regular hours are Fridays 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Sat-urdays & Sundays 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The boutique also offersonline sales, with in-store pick-up.

    Old Town Roseville has seen what some view as a mini Re-naissance since 2015, after three controversial, rundown

    apartments were closed or sold to new owners and several

    new businesses opened. The arrival of Porch Swing Pickingscomes on the heals of Old Town Pizza and Four Score Coffeemoving into the neighborhood, as well as the continued pop-ularity of Pacific Street Café, the Opera House Saloon and theBoxing Donkey Irish Pub. For the owners of this latest creativeendeavor, the objective is highlighting local decorating talent.

    “I just think that the best part of it is that I get to showcaseother artists out there,” Sally Abeijon said. “That is, to me,such a blessing to be able to give them an opportunity toshow their beautiful pieces of artwork that they do, and thefabulous things they come up with.”

    And the small shop has more than just sought-after artwork;the owners have tried to imbue every inch of it with a stylish,welcoming atmosphere. The vibe is also boosted by howclose the mother-daughter duo is.

    “My favorite part would be that I get to work alongside mybest friend, who is also my mom,” Jen Abeijon remarked.“She’s an amazing person and example — I am so lucky to berunning a business with her.”

    La Provence is a French restaurant that backs

    up to acres of wild land. Dawn Wolf, manager

    of the establishment, said their setting for a

    wedding sets them apart from other venues.

    “I believe that we are a destination for a

    wedding where you can get married in

    beautiful scenery. The backdrop is beautiful

    nature which is something you can’t get at

    other places,” she said.

    Being chosen as best wedding venue isfulfilling, Wolf said.

    “We are very excited we put a lot of hard

    work making the day special and that is so

    rewarding,’ she said. “You build a relationship

    with the bride and groom and when all the

    work comes together for their special day it’s

     very rewarding.”

    Lisa Lees and her three sisters, Julie Jeffre,

    Tricia Lake, and Gina Sanders own Four

    Sisters Café and took two categories, bestbreakfast and best service.

    Lees said what sets their eatery apart is

    their caring nature.

    “I think we have a really personal style

    of service and get to know our customers

    really well. We kill them with kindness

    and it shows in our employees work ethic.

    And our food is incredible.”

    She said winning is “incredible.”

    “It’s our hard work that paid off,”

    she said. That’s our goal. We set our

    standards high and it’s nice to see it pay

    off and be recognized.”

    and she said the food really sets

    Chandos apart from other eateries.

    “We have great service and good

    food,” she said. “Our most popular

    dish is the mulitas. It’s similar to

    a quesadilla, but is made with two

    corn tortillas with melted cheese,

    onion, cilantro and salsa inside.”

    On behalf of the restaurant,

    Chandos, Amador said they

    are all very pleased to have won.

    The Roseville Theatre Arts Academy won in two

    categories, best non-profit and best kids entertainment.

    “We are so excited and amazed. There are so many

    amazing wonderful non-profits we are honored,” said

    Michelle Raskey.

    The theater is a nonprofit children’s theater that teaches

    musical theater and acting. They also perform plays

    adults can enjoy, but their focus is on training youth in

    the arts.

    “This is a place for them to find their corner of the

    sky,” Raskey said.

    She said what makes her academy special is the sense

    of community.

    “We have a sense of family. It takes so many people tomake this place run. We are always getting new students

    and everyone is welcome. It’s everyone’s theater.”

    Kara Hoffman has been shooting for

    about four years. She is the offi cial

    photographer for Woodcreek High

    School’s football team, but her favorite

    type of photography is shooting teens.

    “Shooting senior portraits are my

    favorite,” Hoffman said. “They are

    fun to work with. They keep you

     youthful. We laugh and joke. It’s really

    relaxed and they have a good time. I

    like my sessions to be relaxed.”

    Hoffman said she was “humbled” at

    learning she won in her category.

    “I’m excited and was in shock. I

    thought when it came up, I’m never

    going to get this. I know a lot of

    photographers and was so shocked.”

    Marqueen Pet Emergency and Specialty is exactly what it sounds like.

    It’s an emergency clinic that offers specialty services for your pet.

    “Just like human medicine a lump on lymph node you go to see a

    specialist. We care for critical patients and are a 24-hour emergency

    clinic,” said Rick Miller, spokesman for the clinic.

    Marqueen won the best veterinary clinic award and Miller said the

    company’s attention to their client is one thing that sets them apart.

    “When we speak we are speaking to the clients and family veterinarians.

    I think it is absolute attentiveness,” he said. “The clients are paying for

    a service and it’s in a situation that’s an emergency or the condition of

    their pet is elevated where they need to see a specialist. It can be a very

    tense moments. Our attention to everything has to be heightened.”

    Miller said his offi ce is “completely humbled” to win the award.

    “In a situation where we are not regular veterinarians and these clientsare from our referring veterinarians and they have thought so much of

    us that they did that. That’s amazing.”

    upscale men’s barber shop that

    focuses on the whole package.

    “We do all male grooming

    services and cover all the

    bases from facials, scalp

    treatment, hair cut shaves and

    manicures and also waxing

     — above the belt only,”

    said Kelly Rogers owner of

    the salon.

    What sets her salon apart from

    the others is the experience.

    “Our goal and our mission

    statements is man at his best,”

    Rogers said. “If a guy looks

    good, he feels better and

    performs better.”

    From the moment a gentlemen

    walks through the doors of 18/8

    they are met by the concierge

    and offered a complementary

    beverage, she said.

    “All of our guest get change into

    a robe and leave with no hair

    on their clothes. These are all

    semiprivate stations,” Rogers

    said. “It’s really all about the

    experience.”

    Of winning the award after only

    being in business 14 months,

    Rogers said they are stunned.

    “Being able to take this honor is

    great and tells us we are doing

    the right thing and my team is

    awesome,” she said.

    comes out crisp, Navarro said.

    He said what sets the Green Bohemeapart is its intentions.

    preservation of the nutrients in thefood. In this world of fast food we are

    making things in the artisan by hand

    way,” Navarro said. “It’s doing it that

    way because there are nutrients and

    enzymes that are beneficial to the

    body that is missing in today’s culture.

    Our food is fuel.”

    He said the restaurant staff is thrilled

    to take top honors.

    “It’s awesome. We are just now cel-

    ebrating a year in Roseville. We feel

     very blessed to be in this communityand we have a lot of support. We

    know it’s just the beginning.”

    Pretty in Ink in the Historic District of Roseville has been open

    since January 2008 providing custom tattoos and artwork for

    both men and women.

    Owner Heidi Harrington said their shop is a bit unique in that

    they do all custom art work.

    “We don’t have the boards with the tattoos you can pick from,”

    she said. It looks like a gallery not a tattoo shop. We work with

    our customers to draw their design.”

    She said her goal is to get the clients idea on paper as they see it.

    “Our philosophy is the client is the one who will wear it

    for the rest of their lives so they have to be happy with it,”

    Harrington said.

    Of being named the best, she said she was excited.

    “We’ve been here eight years and there are other shops that

    have been here longer so we were not only surprised, but

    super shocked.”

    “Famine ships” took the Irish to the East Coast beforelaying rail lines brought them out West, and in Ros-eville their immigrant dream settled into a vision of

    squealing boxcars, secret saloon tunnels and overworkedmen hiding from the Women’s’ Temperance League. TheBarker Hotel is a survivor from those days, and the BoxingDonkey Irish Pub in its belly is a popular tribune to the sham-rock side of Roseville’s memories.

    Today, “the Donkey” is one of the only Celtic havens in greaterSacramento where patrons can drink Guinness while listeningto Irish-punk and Gaelic-roots music on the radio. It also servespub cuisine so in-demand it might be, as the Irish say, “a dou-ble-dose of original sin.”

    It’s long into a midweek afternoon and daylight pours throughthe high, arched window that was once the doorway to CharlesBarker’s hotel. The sun creeps from a framed Roseville fire-man’s jacket to a green flag for Jameson Irish Whiskey: The en-

    gine jacket — hung across the bar from

    an emerald fireman’s helmet — has thewords “Boxing Donkey” em-broidered across

    its back.

    Not far from the window, novelist Nancy Lee Woody sits drink-ing a Blue Moon. Woody just returned from Ireland and thelively vibe in the Donkey reminds her of pubs she visited inBelfast and Galway. The establishment is thoroughly Califor-nian but it does stick to some Irish classics: Banners for Smith-wick’s ale drape down from its ceiling; hard apple cider han-dles are on-tap; an array of Paddy’s whiskey bottles line thewalls. Old Town Roseville faces a railroad largely built by Irish

    immigrants in a valley once dominated by an Irish newspaperbaron. The memory of that world was still alive when theBarker Hotel was built in 1910. The Boxing Donkey projectsthus legacy both through the pub’s spirit and the enduringplaster and wood of Old Town itself. The Boxing Donkey alsohas a modern Irish-Yankee feel that includes its stereo blastingthe Celtic crunch of “Streams of Whiskey” by the Pogues or theroving, renegade touch of “Whiskey in the Jar” by the Dub-liners. On this late afternoon, Woody sips her beer as the pub’sspeakers play “Shipping Up to Boston” by Dropkick Murphys.

    “I just loved how in Ireland there’s music everywhere, just

    like in this place,” Woody remarks as the manic marching ofScruffy Wallace’s bagpipes goes honking through the bar’scavern. “The pubs are like this — full of friendly people talkingand music is a part of everything.”

    But while fans of rocking jigs can get their fill at the BoxingDonkey, the real draw for foodies is what chefs MichaelReese and Melyssa Tucey are cooking in the back kitchen.One of the bar’s most valued dishes is its Saint Patty’s Melt, a

     AN IRISHSTAPLE: 

    The BarkerHotel building

    was constructedin 1910 by

    Charles Barker.It was a

    familiar site toIrish immigrants

    in Roseville.

     Roseville needed a goodneighborhood pub in Old Town.

     And I think that’s what we’ve

    done here. It’s a laidback place

    where everyone knows each other.

     It’s a pub where friends are

     family, and family are friends.”

    burger on thin, toasted Rye, covered in hot jack and cheddarcheese, caramelized red onions and a splattering of Thou-sand Island dressing. A bite reveals how its beef juices flowinto tangy accents, pops of cloying onion and the dressing’ssweet and sour pinch, all held together by the counteringdryness of the Rye. It’s a true taste sensation.

    Another hit at the Donkey is the Pork N’ Cheese, a bowl withhoney chipotle glazed pork shanks centered in homemade

     jack and parmesan pasta, topped with fresh micro greens. Thepork stands out with a cinnamon-and-sugar touch on crispyskin, and the dark meat underneath balances the hints ofsugar with silky, salty highlights. The plate only gets better as

    it stands, with the sweetened pork drippings being absorbedinto the ropey bubbles of cheese on the macaroni.

    The Boxing Donkey is also infamous for its Spicy Buffalo Macand Cheese. More Irish in attitude than heritage, this bowl ischalked full of cavatappi pasta piled in hefty Buffalo chickenchunks, large bacon bits and sharp globs of blue cheese. Itdares anyone looking down on it with its massive corkscrewnoodles glowing titian with spices, and one fork motionshows how drenched it is in clinging, stringy layers of cheese.The whole concoction looks dangerous but is mixed to perfec-tion in a gradation of tastes and textures.

    “I think the food has really been a pleasant surprise to thepeople,” notes the Boxing Donkeys co-owner, Joe Tucey. “Youcan sum-up what our chefs doing in three words fresh: fresh,fresh. That means that everything from the kennebec potatoeswe use to cut our fries, to the fish we’re battering in Guinness— it’s all coming to us fresh. I don’t mind paying a little extra toget quality.”

    Tucey opened the Boxing Donkey in 2008 and runs it with

    co-owner Kendl Schubert. Schubert has proven to the pub’s

    fans she has an uncanny ability for remembering local facesand their favorite orders. She’s also the master at mixing upthe Donkey’s signature cocktails, like “the Old Irish ‘Ass,” aswirl of Tanqueray Old Tom Gin, fresh lime juice, Cock n’ Bullginger beer and hard apple cider, or “the Boxing Burro,” ablend of Tequila Cabeza, Triple Sec, fresh lime juice, acridelements and orange juice. The Donkey’s other bartendershave also been with the pub long enough to know the all thepersonalities flowing in from the city. From auto mechanicsin their work shirts to lawyers in full suites, the clientele maybe diverse, but it always centers on smiling in the pub’srelaxed atmosphere as the libations flow. This part of Rose-

    ville’s been a rail-side bar center since the 1880s, and somethings never change.

    “I think this part of town adds a certain charm to an Irishpub,” Tucey reflects. “It’s the old brick buildings and all thehistory that’s behind all of these walls down here. Rosevilleneeded a good neighborhood pub in Old Town. And I thinkthat’s what we’ve done here. It’s a laidback place where ev-eryone knows each other. It’s a pub where friends are family,and family are friends.”

    Lyndon Johnson was our president, a gallon of milk was

     just 31 cents and Sonny and Cher had little hit song ti-tled “I Got You Babe.” The year was 1965 and something

    new was coming to life in El Dorado County, the sport of auto

    racing. Fifty-one years later, the roar of engines and the cheerof a wide-eyed crowd is commonplace on Saturday nights atthe El Dorado County Fairgrounds in Placerville.

    With the spring season upon us, the green flag has flownonce again at Placerville Speedway. What started as a commu-nity football field back in 1956 and transformed into a quar-ter-mile dirt race track in the summer of 1965, is now knownas one El Dorado County’s hot spots for family entertainmenton Saturday nights between the months of April and October.

    For anyone who has never been to a dirt track race, it’s an

    experience to behold, with several classes of cars and bothmen and women behind the wheel from all walks of life. Teen-agers to seniors and everything in between; all from differentprofessions, living as weekend warriors or choosing to raceprofessionally.

    Some of the thrills include winged sprint cars boasting over700 horsepower traveling sideways at extreme speeds, ridingon the narrow edge of triumph and disaster, often navigatingtheir way through fields of 20 cars or more. This class of car has

    berthed a handful of drivers that from the likes of PlacervilleSpeedway to the sports highest levels. Current NASCAR starKyle Larson of Elk Grove cut his teeth in the sport of racingat this facility, earning his first win aboard a sprint car here in2007 before advancing in the sport. Others include Paul Mc-Mahan, an Elk Grove native and Brad Sweet of Grass Valley

    who honed their careers here and today compete in the na-tionally known World of Outlaws tour that travels the countryand returns to their home track one time annually.

    If that’s not entertaining enough, there’s fire-breathing latemodel stock car with colorful sheet metal bodies that quivereven while at idle speed due to the extreme power beneaththe hood and enough torque to lift a front wheel off theground as they accelerate out of the corners. Add to that visual,

     AND THEY’RE OFF : Pure stock cars are among the classes of racers at Placerville Speedway. Photo by Donna Peter.

    these wicked-fast machines racing side by side, three abreaston a surface barely wide enough for two.

    While the high-end divisions populate the headlines during aracing season at this facility carved into a hillside in the heartof the area’s business district, one grassroots division draws

    astonishment from some of the youngest fans, known as purestock race cars. While still very much enhanced for speed andperformance, these machines are the closest thing to an actualstreet car in a class that is populated by entry-level drivers andveterans of the sport. Don’t let the term “pure” be deceiving,these door-donning machines are known for putting on quieta performance week after week.

    These are just sampling of what can be experienced every Sat-urday at Placerville Speedway. The facility hosts 24 events in2016. In addition to the three weekly divisions, many travelinggroups complete the program throughout the year, providing

    entertainment on a given race night from 6 p.m. until approx-imately 10 p.m., a value considering an average big screenmovie is two hours in length for nearly the same investment.

    This year, Placerville Speedway begins a new era in track man-agement with local residents Scott Russell and Kami Arnoldtaking the wheel of operations under the banner of RMI Incorpo-rated. This duo has deep roots in the local sport and are lookingto continue traditions while improving many aspects of theweekly program to focus on strong family entertainment value.

    “The previous promoters of this track went to great lengths tobuild a strong foundation centered around families,” Arnoldsaid. “Our goal is to continue those long-standing traditionsand provide great, affordable family entertainment.”

    One such tradition at Placerville Speedway is their famedhandmade corn dogs that have been a fan favorite over the

    last 50 years. Hand dipped in freshly made corn meal battereach race night, these piping hot treats are sold as fast as theycome out of the fryer and are equivalent to that you wouldfind at a country fair in the heart of the mid west.

    In addition to the well-known corn dogs, PlacervilleSpeedway offers a menu to delight all palettes with itemsthat the new management has taken the time to taste testwith staff to insure its quality and desirability from the tra-ditional flame broiled hamburgers, hot dogs, spicy nachosand fried chicken, to new items like the homemade Tri TipSandwich, Frito Pie and Garlic Fries. Pair this menagerie of

    items with one of their many ice cold brews or ice cold sodason tap and it makes for a great evening of family dining andentertainment on a Saturday night.

    The new season has begun at Placerville Speedway and theschedule of events includes many special nights includingthe annual Fourth of July Spectacular and the famed KidsNight among many. Ticket prices vary according to the eventon tap and details can be found on the track website atplacervillespeedway.com with the complete season schedule.

    New indoor skydiving

    center iFly goes live

    R

    oseville residents with the thrill-seeking instinct will fi-

    nally have a new option. iFly, the international indoorskydiving venture, will start taking party and group res-ervations for its Harding Boulevard location May 15.

    iFly broke ground on the one-story facility across the streetfrom Roseville Square last year, marking it first arrival inthis part of Northern California. Construction is almost com-pleted and its wind tunnel is fully operational.

    “There are multiple designs,” said Cameron Cole, generalmanager for Roseville’s iFly. “I’m actually really excitedabout the one that we’re building here because it’s a one-story design, unlike (San Francisco), where it’s two stories …

    when you walk through the door of our particular location,you can look to the right, and, ‘Boom,’ there’s the tunnel. It’sthe first thing you see when you come through the door,which is really unique … they dim down the lights in thetunnel, so it’s like this glowing becon of awesomeness.”

    Many of the iFly-trained staff are actually skydivers and say theexperience is quite similar, aside from the lack of a parachute.

    Flight times vary, as customers can choose a verity of ex-periences, including corporate parties and STEM (ScienceTechnology Engineering Math) programs for kids and local

    students.

    “It includes your class, gear, training and everything priorto actually getting inside the tunnel,” Cole explained. “Theactual flight time per person can vary. Our most boughtpackage is actually four-minutes of flight time. The alterna-tive is a two-flight package.”

    As summer approaches, iFly will make locals aware ofsummer programs available at the wind tunnel.

    “We also offer kids camps,” Cole added. “In the summer, if kids

    come in and latch onto an instructor, we try to keep the sameinstructor. That way they can build rapport and know where thekids are at, so we can continue building. We definitely do our duediligence and put the right person in the right spot for them.”

    Such programs do have opportunities for older participantsand student as well.

    “We’ve been doing a lot of outreach to schools,” said SamanthaSt. Thomas, a regional sales manager. “Elementary, middleschool, high school, we’re at Sac State today … They’ll comein the wind tunnel, do an experiment portion, which is really

    fun for the kids, then get to fly and they’ll have an educationportion that relates to physics and how the wind tunnel works.Depending on what curriculum they’re at in their school age,we can relate it back to what they’re learning in school.”

    iFly will also run competitions through its new Roseville fa-cility. The company is associated with the IBA, a national sky-diving league that plans to host an event in Roseville annu-ally. Parties interested in contacting iFly can call (916) 836-4359or visit iflyword.com/Sacramento

    “People can look forward to being outside enjoying a goodmovie, if the weather is nice,” he said. “It’s like the drive ins,but you get to enjoy it out there with other people close by.”

    During the free event, there is a vender that comes out andsells movie-type concessions such as kettle corn, candy, chipsand soda, he said.

    Eggs are in plentiful supply in Placer County, andthere are many protein-packed options you canuse to add diversity to your diet. Chicken eggs

    are the most common choice, but our region alsooffers tasty quail and duck eggs for a more well-rounded experience. However you choose to enjoyyour egg dishes, each type provides a low caloric

    count with a high amount of protein, vitamins,minerals and carotenoids (which reduce the riskof age-related macular degeneration, the leadingcause of blindness in older adults).

    Quail eggs have a rich taste thanks to a greaterconcentration of fats, proteins, vitamins and min-erals. Often regarded as a gourmet food, theirsmall size is perfect for preparing hors d’oeuvres,and their speckled shells can serve as great tabledécor. Duck eggs, meanwhile, have larger andthicker shells that allow for a longer shelf life. If

    you’re looking for more of a yolk taste, duck eggsare perfect because they have a large yolk-to-white ratio.

    Whichever eggs you choose for your next dish,be sure to gather them from your local PlacerGROWN producer — such as Laughing DuckFarm and Neilson Family Farm— because farm-fresh eggs typically provide better taste andcreate better baked products. The images below

    showcase the difference between an angel foodcake made with store bought eggs on the left andfarm-fresh eggs on the right.

    PREPARATION

    There are many different ways to prepare eggs,including hard boiled, scrambled, sunny side

    up, poached, baked and basted. One of the mostscrumptious ways to enjoy this delicious dietarystaple is by preparing the attached recipe, AngelFood Cake with Strawberries.

    STORAGE

    How you store and prepare your eggs is keyto maximizing their nutritional value. The fullhealth benefits of eggs can only be realized if youstore them properly in the refrigerator and cookthem thoroughly to kill any potential bacteria.Store eggs in the main body of the refrigerator

    to guarantee that they keep a consistent and cooltemperature.

    Also, keep eggs in the egg carton to prevent themfrom absorbing strong odors and flavors of otherfoods within your refrigerator; keeping them inthe carton also showcases the “Best Before” dateto confirm freshness and ensures that they’ve beenstored in the correct posture (large end up), to helpthe yolks remain centered.

    Angel Food Cake

    with Strawberries

    Preheat oven to 350ºF.

    INGREDIENTS

    1 cup sifted cake flour

    1 ½ cups sugar

    ½ teaspoon salt1 ½ cups egg whites (about 12 large)

    warmed to room temperature

    1 teaspoon cream of tartar

    1 tablespoon lemon juice

    1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract

    DIRECTIONS

    1. Sift the flour, then measure and place in

    a bowl. Add ½ cup sugar and salt to the

    sifted flour and sift again, twice. Set aside.

    2. Beat the egg whites in a very large, very

    clean bowl. When the whites are foamy,

    add the cream of tartar and lemon juice.

    When the bubbles are uniform, startadding the remaining cup of sugar a few

    tablespoons at a time. Add vanilla extract.

    Beat the eggs until they form stiff peaks

    and the sugar is dissolved (when you lift

    the beaters a peak will form and hold).

    3. Fold in the flour using a clean rubber

    spatula, using a down-the-side-and-

    up-through-the-batter motion. Do not

    over mix. When the flour is thoroughly

    combined, turn it into a very clean,

    grease-free 10-inch tube pan.

    4. Bake 50 minutes. Test for doneness by

    pressing lightly in the center; if it springs

    back, the cake is done. Remove from oven

    and invert the pan until the cake is cool

    5. The cake must be lifted an inch off the

    counter during the cooling process. This

    can be done by inverting the cake over abottle.

    6. When cool, remove the cake by

    running a serrated knife around the edges

    of the pan.

    Serve with strawberry sauce.

    Strawberry Sauce

    INGREDIENTS

    2 pints strawberries, one pint diced, the

    other sliced

    1/3 cup sugar

    1 tablespoon lemon juiceDIRECTIONS

    1. Cook the diced strawberries, sugar and

    lemon juice in a small saucepan over low

    heat until the sugar dissolves.

    2. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and

    cook for 3 minutes. Add the sliced

    strawberries. Remove from heat, place in a

    covered bowl and chill for 2 hours.

    Serve over angel food cake

    40/60 May 2016 

    January has come and gone and thousands of

    Americans are stepping on scales, looking inmirrors and having conversations with doctors

    wondering what happened to that New Year’sResolution. Summer is coming and as we try andsqueeze our way into shorts, tank-tops and thedreaded swimsuit, we can’t help but notice anotherfitness failure. We become frustrated, discouragedand in some severe cases, depressed. We have somany rational excuses such as family, career, timeor even injuries that we can point to but at the endof it all, we are stuck in the cycle.

    As a wellness professional for over 16 years, I havelearned several realities and how to break past thecycle of fitness failure. The foundational truth issimply: decide to make a lifestyle change, committo it and take action. Unless you make that com-mitment then each attempt is doomed before youbegin. Avoid resolutions, crash-diets or falling intothe fitness trend trap of fad-food plans or gimmicks.These do not provide a basis for a life change andare all part of what creates perpetual fitness failure.

    Here are five specific actions you can take to make

    the health and physique transformation you seekattainable and permanent:

    SELECT AND HIRE A PERSONAL TRAINER

    Without question, the fast track to success is in-vesting in a certified personal trainer. And yes, youcan afford it if you truly want to make a permanentlifestyle change. Money is important but not ascritical as your health and safety. A personal trainerwill design a comprehensive program based onyour current condition and ultimate goal. Theywill structure workouts in a progressive manner

    and evaluate progress periodically to measure re-sults. All you have to do is show up to the appoint-ment two or three times each week and executethe workout under their guidance and performany other exercise or programs they prescribe tocomplete on your own. However, be very selectiveabout who you hire and where you train. Be surethe trainer you select is certified and experienced.Also, you get what you pay for in both facilities andtrainers so budget a clean, well-maintained fitness

    facility and expert trainer into your life. There areso many options available so take some time andresearch facilities. In most cases, I suggest skippingthe big brand gyms as they are simply machinesthat chew through members and typically hireyounger less experienced trainers. More often, ahigh level personal trainer will work in a boutique,contract independently or own a studio. For anexcellent personal trainer, be prepared to pay be-

    tween $60-$100 per hour.

     JOIN A SMALL GROUP TRAINING PROGRAM

    Aside from private personal training, working ina group is an excellent way to get involved witha community of others seeking the same changeas yourself. This gives you a network of supportersand a strong degree of positive accountability. Notto mention, small group training can be very af-fordable and allow you to maximize your budgetand time. Keep in mind, small group trainingshould have less than 10 participants in order to

    be optimal. Too often, fitness clubs try and cramas many people into a “small” group as possibleto drive revenue. I find this unacceptable as a fit-ness professional and encourage you to seek outprograms with integrity and solid programming.In a small group setting, a professional trainer willbe able to give you a good deal of attention andkeep you working safely and effectively. Again, aworthwhile trainer or fitness facility will charge afair price and you get what you pay for. Find a com-pany offering groups of 6-10 that run classes twoor three times per week and be prepared to spendbetween $11- $22 per session.

    GET INVOLVED WITH GROUP EXERCISE CLASSES

    Not to be confused with small group training, aGroup Exercise class is a regularly scheduled andpre-formatted fitness class led by an instructor.Classes like these are a great way to get connectedinto the fitness community, make acquaintancesand enhance your enjoyment of working out.Group classes are a fantastic way to supplementa workout program or personal training sessionby adding variety and some social components.Fitness is a journey and having others around

    you sharing positive energy and enthusiasm goesa long way toward sustainability. Most nationalbrand gyms offer these classes yet I am inclinedto seek out smaller or boutique programs as theytend to have a very high level of quality control andinstructor oversight. Not to mention, large chaingyms tend to pack members in by the dozens andthe program can be diminished by overcrowdingor become uncomfortable. There are several excel-lent studios in the Roseville area so take some time

    and seek out the right fit. A good fitness companythat offers quality group classes will likely chargeanywhere from $60-$130 per month but again, ittends to be worth the extra investment when com-pared to the environment and results.

    HIKING, WALKING AND OUTDOORS

    One of the outstanding benefits of living in theRoseville area is the easy access to parks, trails and

    outdoor activities. There are dozens of options forthe outdoor enthusiast or a person looking to addthis component to their lifestyle. There are count-less beginner trails in the area and the majesty ofthe Sierras is a short drive for those seeking a chal-lenge. Moreover, the cost of enjoying a long hike isnegligible and aside from time and transportation,there is little cost associated with getting outsideand exploring the beauty of our state. Hikes andlong walks can be enjoyed with partners, familyand pets so plan some time outdoors and makea day of it. While getting outdoors may seem

    overly simple, it is about creating a sustainable lifechange. In my experience, most people who startconnecting with the outdoors this way tend to stickto their nutrition and workout plans during theweek so they are ready for the weekend hike.

    GET INVOLVED WITH TEAM OR INDIVIDUAL SPORTS

    Organized team sports or adult leagues are a fan-tastic way to bring fun and focus to a workout pro-gram. Not only are some sports inherently active,they all require some kind of fitness training or con-ditioning. If you have a team sport that you enjoy,Roseville has dozens of leagues available for you

    to explore. Personally, I enjoy individual challengesports like the difficult mud and obstacle runs orextended back-country kayaking, snowboarding ormountaineering. These passions fuel my personalfitness programs and keep me focused on morethan just sets, reps and meal planning. Again, yoursport or physical activity should be woven into thefabric of your life to be more than just somethingyou do. Because you are making a lifestyle changetoward a fit body and strong discipline, addingthese athletic options are all part of the structurethat fortify your resolve and results.

    Remember, there is no silver bullet for fitness. In-stead it is a combination of components and man-aging your food intake. Plain and simple, you haveto get your nutrition under control and ensure yourenergy expenditure and food consumption is appro-priate for your goal. I hope you take these sugges-tions seriously and move your mindset to programsand activities that enhance the quality of your lifeand bring long-lasting health and wellness!

    COASTAL BEACON: The PointCabrillo Lighthouse with itsrestored British built Fresnellens is a popular sight to see

    when visiting Mendocino.

    A trip to Mendocino will find visitors

    enjoying a variety of opportunities fromdeep sea fishing, whale watching andabalone diving to activities of the drierfashion such as hiking along the trailsof the ragged, seaside cliffs, enjoyingthe scenic wildflowers that separate thetrails from town and of course, shoppingand dining in the village where galleriesand unique gift shops are abundant asare book stores and fine eateries.

    Main Street in Mendocino offers manygreat places to dine, stay and shopfor unique gifts, while still offeringthe convenience of everyday itemsin a well-stocked market where everysquare foot is packed with the freshestof foods and must-have items for thosestaying long term.

    One of the most well-known lodgingdestinations is right on Main Street,

    the Mendocino Hotel. This inn was builtback in 1878 and still serves the samefunction today that is did over a cen-tury ago. Its rooms are furnished withantiques, fireplaces and memorabiliaabove a full restaurant and bar that iswell populated by both travelers andlocals each evening.

    When it comes to Bed and Breakfastsin Mendocino, all of them have greatamenities. On our trip, we stayed at the

    When the door opens, you're greetedby a welcoming foyer with several di-rections to choose from.

    The color of the walls throughout thecommon area are calming as onemoves seamlessly from one room tothe next. Among them is a large octag-onal-shaped formal dining room with

    a vaulted tray ceiling adorned with aclassic chandelier.

    Nearby, the large but cozy family roomhas a fireplace and wall of windows wel-coming in tons of natural light.
