FORTTHOMAS—Elizabeth Farrisstarted writing crime fiction novelsbecause she wanted some happierendings than the in the books sheusually reads.
Farris’ first book, “The Water’sEdge,” is a 212-page murder mys-tery paperback set in Covington’sMainStrasse Village and a FortThomas home similar to . Tate Pub-lishingandEnterprises released thebook inOctober. Farris plans to signcopies of her book at 7 p.m.Tuesday,Jan. 21, at Joseph-Beth Booksellersin Crestview Hills.
Farris said shehasalways read crimenovels, but neverthought of writingone until a couple ofyears ago.
“I read a lot, and Ilike the kind of mud-dier, thriller,mysterybooks,” she said.
Farris said she de-cided she could prob-
ably write her own book, and overthe course of a year she wrote andhad the book published.
“I just thought, well I might justwrite one myself and make it endthe way I want because I like hap-
py,” she said.In the book FBI agent Jim Gard-
nergoesback tohis former lover af-ter a one-year interlude in the rela-tionship, only to find she is the nexttarget, Farris said.
“There’s a little bit of romance,not too much, but I think it's alwaysnice to have a little love interest,”she said.
Farris said her family moved to17th Street in Covington when shewas a teen after growing up on Co-vington’s east side on 21st Street,near the former St. Elizabeth NorthHospital. Locations in the book in-

FORT THOMAS —Council willvote Jan. 21 on whether to allowbusinesses to start selling alco-holic drinks at 11 a.m. – twohours earlierthan the existing1 p.m. time.
Thecity’spro-posedordinance,unveiled at theDec. 16 meeting,states business-es are at a disad-vantage becauseneighboring cit-ies allow earlier Sunday alcoholsales.
Mayor Mary H. Brown saidthe proposed ordinance will bevoted upon at the 7 p.m. Tues-day, Jan. 21, meeting.
The change to allow sales ofalcoholdrinksbytheglassearli-er onSundayswas requestedbyFort Thomas Pizza & Tavern,said City Administrator DonMartin.
“It will put us in line with the
other communities in theSouth-bank area,” Martin said.
The Ohio River cities ofBellevue, Covington, Dayton,Ludlow and Newport are theother member cities of South-bank Partners.
Fort Thomas’ alcoholic bev-erages ordinance also allowsbusinesses with liquor licensesto sell drinks from 6 a.m. to 2:30p.m. Monday-Saturday. Drinksales on Sunday are allowednow from1p.m. to 2:30 a.m.
The tavern lobbied for earli-er sales timebecause it opens at7 a.m. every day for breakfast,said Patrick Casey, owner ofFort Thomas Pizza & Tavern.
“And since we are allowed toserve alcohol during the weekand Saturdays, mainly for sec-ond and third shift customerswho are just finishing work, itmade sense to request that wecould offer the same on Sun-
Ft. Thomas mayOK earlier Sundayalcohol sales

The Carnegie’s 2013-2014 Gallery Season con-tinueswithsixexhibitions
on display through Feb.14.
On display in The Car-negie’s Ohio National Fi-nancial Services Gallerywill be“TakeItFromMe,”the first major retrospec-tive exhibition of work bylate local artist RonThomas. The body ofwork combines precisegeometry with a concur-rent interest in spiritual-ityandmysticism.Theex-hibition is the first to befully curated by The Car-negie’s ExhibitionsDirec-tor Matt Distel, who as-sumed the position thispast June.
The gallery is at 1028Scott Blvd.
“Ronwas an incrediblyprolific and meticulousartist,” said Distel. “How-
ever, his workwent large-ly unseen by the broaderpublic. Many factors con-tributed to this situation,but ultimately this is abody of work that is ex-tremely compelling anddeserves to be assessed inthe context of other paint-ers working in the re-gion.”
Opening reception at-tendeesare invited to takepart in a special previewconversation with Disteland the family of RonThomas from 5:30-6 p.m.about the late artist’s lifeand career. A complimen-tary cocktail will be pro-vided during the discus-sion.
In The Carnegie’s up-stairs galleries there arefive additional shows in-cluding the NorthernKentucky Printmakers(formerly the NorthernKentucky UniversityPrintClub)exhibition, “SoThey Say: Wisdom andFoolishness.” This groupexhibition is comprised ofwork by alumni, students,faculty and friends of theNorthern Kentucky Uni-
versity Print Depart-ment.
Inaddition to thegroupshow, a variety of soloshows will also be on dis-play including “GenusMachina“ byAndrewDai-ley, comprised of a seriesof drawings depicting fic-titious animal/machinehybrids that reflect therelationship between na-ture and the man-made;artist Trish Weeks’s“Speaking of Color”which displays her signa-ture work portraying ex-pressionist views of na-ture created by combin-ing simple compositionsandcomplex layers of col-or; David Hartz, whose“drawings”weremadebyburning the paper to cre-ate images and are pairedwith playful sculptures.
Gallery hours arenoon-5 p.m. Wednesday-Saturday until Friday,Feb. 14.

The documentary film“Last Call at the Oasis”about the impending riskofwater shortage becamethe inspiration for a re-cent cooking class at theBoone County Coopera-tive Extension Service.
“Although there arewater issues in otherparts of the world, thisdocumentary brought adifferent perspective be-cause it’s talking aboutAmerica,” explainedDianeMason of theBooneCounty Extension Ser-vice.
At least 36 states ex-pected local, regional orstatewide water short-ages this year, even undernon-drought conditions,according to the U.S. En-vironmental ProtectionAgency.
Mary Ann Wolfe ofBurlingtonrecommendedthe documentary for theclass. “I have conservedall my life,” she said. “I
collect water off the roof,and that’swhat Iuse inmyhouse.”
What does a documen-tary film have to do withcooking?
The program is called“Cooking theBooks.” Par-ticipants read a book orwatch a film before com-ing to the class to preparefoods inspired by what
they’ve read or watched.The monthly programusually focuses on cul-tures on different coun-tries, but it’s also open tobring in other issues.
“I call it ‘buildingbridges of shared under-standing,’” Mason ex-plained. “It’s sort of ‘Let’scome together and let’scook and talk about is-
sues.’”“The best part of this
programis listeningto theparticipants’ insights,”Wolfe said, “becausemanyofthemhaveactual-ly lived in the countries.”
“Is it a book club or acooking club? It’s both,”Brenda Hilger of Flor-ence said laughing. “It’san international cookingexperience. Some peoplehave never traveled out-side of Boone County, andthis provides them a glob-al experience.”
“I don’t think you’reever too old to learn,” add-ed Mary Jo Moore of Ft.Wright. “I’ve eaten thingsthat I would’ve nevertouched before.”
“Today’s focus is waterissues, so I tried to comeup with a menu that in-volved foods that don’ttake quite as much waterto grow as other foods,”Mason said.
Anyone interested canregister atwww.ca.uky.edu/boone.There is no fee.

ThomasMoreCollegehostedKentucky Commissioner of Ag-riculture JamesComerat itsBi-ology Field Station in Nov. 21 atthe invitationofStateSen.ChrisMcDaniel (R–23rd District).
“Iwashonored tobringCom-missioner Comer to NorthernKentucky to tour Thomas Mo-re’s Ohio River Field Station.Dr. (Chris) Lorentz and his staffleftme inspiredbothpersonallyand professionally by all of thegreat research and monitoringthat they are doing on the OhioRiver. I lookforward toworkingwith them in the future,” saidMcDaniel.
Comer and McDaniel touredthe facility, including the newlyconstructed education lodge,constructed wetland, researchlabs and outdoor classrooms.Lorentz, biology professor and
station director, provided infor-mation about the unique oppor-tunities the field station offersits students in undergraduateresearch as the only workingfield station on the Ohio River,as well as partnerships devel-oped with entities such as theUSEPA,DukeEnergy, theNew-port Aquarium, Sanitation Dis-trict Number 1 and more. Thetwo also learned of the STEM(science, technology, engineer-ing andmath) outreach that hasbeen developed with several lo-cal high schools as a result ofthe support of Toyota USAFoundation and the James Gra-ham Brown Foundation.
Following the tour, a behind-the-scenes look at the researchin progress was provided, in-cluding: water quality monitor-ing, invasive species research
and the station’s status as aunique breeder and supplier offathead minnows used by aca-demic, private and governmen-tal laboratories for aquatic re-search.
“I was blown away duringmy tour of Thomas More Col-lege’s Ohio River ResearchLab,” said Comer. “Like mostKentuckians, I was unaware ofthe cutting edge research thatThomasMore is doingonbehalfof all Americans right here inKentucky. Thomas More is tru-ly a Kentucky jewel.”
Following the tour and pres-entation, Comer and McDanielmet with college President Da-vid Armstrong, Matthew Web-
ster, vice president for opera-tions, andLorentz to discuss thestation’s importance to the col-lege, the region, and the Com-monwealth.
“We strive to transform stu-dents’ lives, and this one-of-a-kind facility truly accomplishesthat,” Armstrong said. “I lookforward toworkingwith today’sdistinguished guests to buildpartnerships thatbenefit there-gion and all Kentuckians.”
The Biology Field Station(also known as the River Sta-tion) is a one-of-a-kind centerfor applied biological researchwhose reach is aswideandpow-erful as the Ohio River and allits tributaries. Located just 30
minutes from themain ThomasMore campus, the station isperchedon theshoreof theOhioRiver, one of the original U.S.thoroughfares of commerceand transportation. Workingclosely with federal, state, andlocal authorities to monitor andimprove water quality in theOhio River, the staff and stu-dents at the Station are dedicat-ed to improving water condi-tions, education and preservingthe rich heritage this and otherwaterways have to offer.

ALEXANDRIA — Spreadingcheer to troops in themilitary isa holiday tradition at CampbellRidge Elementary School.
The elementary scho-l sentthemost letters to troops of anyKentucky elementary school in2012 through the the Friends ofOur Troops Mail for the TroopsCampaign.
Stacey Arnold, a third gradeteacher at Campbell Ridge, saidshe starts asking other teachersand students to begin writinglettersandcreatingcards inOc-toberfor troops toreceive in themail in time for the holidays.
This year’s total of about 300letters was less than the 2012count of 500 letters, she said.Students in each class decide ifthey want to participate.
Arnold saidMarietta Knuehlof Alexandria, a member of theCampbell County Veterans ofForeign Wars Post 3205 LadiesAuxiliary in Alexandria, firsttold her about the holiday mailfor troops campaign in 2011.Seeing a neighbor away fromhome around the holidaysmadeArnold act.
“Myneighborhad just joinedthe Air Force and she was sta-tioned inJapan,andfeelinga lit-tle homesick of course,” Arnoldsaid.
The cards and letters have tobe positive and not about war,she said. Arnold said she re-views the cards before they aresent to the VFW.
“They can write letters andtheycandrawpictures,”Arnoldsaid. “The biggest thing is noglitter.”
Glitter makes too much of amess for the members of theVFW ladies auxiliary, she said.The auxiliary members collectand mail the letters and cardswith care packages they makefor the troops.
Student and teacher cardscan be store bought or made byhand.
“One little girl in fifth grade,I can’t remember who, broughtmeastackof50cardsshedidonher own at home,” Arnold said.
Arnold said she puts mes-sages including Merry Christ-mas, sending prayers, and tell-ing the soldier she is thinking ofthem in the cards she writes.
Kennedy Johnson, a thirdgrader, said she wrote four let-ters to the troops this year anddrew her own art work.
“I put Christmas trees on thecards,” Johnson said. “I hadvery big Christmas trees.”
Johnson hand wrote a letterin each card beneath her draw-ings.

After rolling a 198 inthe first game of a matchlast Thursday against Co-vington Latin at La RuLanes in HighlandHeights, Highlands soph-omorebowler JakeFarleyswitched balls in hopes itwould better suit the laneconditions for his secondgame.
It certainly did, as Far-ley proceeded to roll the
first 300 game of his highschool career.
“I knew it was just amatter of time,” saidHighlands coach GlennSchmidt, who is also theproprietor ofLaRuLanes.“I knew he was close. Ithought the way he’s beenthrowing the ball he had achance to get one thisyear.”
Farley, who has beenbowling for eight yearsand threw a 300 in a prac-
tice game, according toSchmidt, carries a 228 av-erage this season and isextremely dedicated tothe sport.
“He bowls for the highschool, our travel leagueteam (out of LaRu), in ourSaturday youth leagueandwe run an all-you-can-bowl special on Sundayand he’s always up hereduring that,” Schmidtsaid. “The kid just has agreat work ethic.”
Schmidt said hewatched every frame ofFarley’s 300 and madesure not to say anything tohim during it. Schmidtsaid another high schoolmatch was taking place atthe same time and every-one stopped to watch thelast couple of frames.
“Everything gets quietand that puts a lot morepressureonyou,”Schmidtsaid.
Farley’s last strike
came into the 1-3 pocket alittle high, according toSchmidt, but it was stillsolid enough to scatter the10 pins.
“When he got done Iasked him, ‘What wasyour thinking?’ and hesaid the only thing he wasthinkingwas thathedidn’twant to tug the ball,”Schmidt said. “He pulledit a little high, but the oilheld. Thewhole gamewasprettysolid.No ‘Brooklyn’
shots (where the ball goesto the opposite side of theheadpin)andacouple thathehit light andgot themtoscatter, but that’s usuallythewayhethrowstheball,because he puts a lot ofhook on it.”
Farley, who averaged212 last year and had ahighgameof279, followedhis performance by roll-ing games of 243 and 205at Walt’s Center Lanes inNewport Dec. 17.

A8 • FORT THOMAS RECORDER • DECEMBER 26, 2013
What often sets the North-ern Kentucky region apart isour willingness to collaborateto solve common problems.When the region was facedwith an astounding rise in thenumber of people addicted toheroin, we came together onceagain.
The result was the NorthernKentucky Heroin Impact re-sponse group’s plan, “NorthernKentucky’s Collective Re-sponse to the Heroin Epidem-ic,” released in mid-November.
The plan was the product ofmore than a year of work bythe heroin impact group. Webrought together experts fromlaw enforcement, local govern-ment, mental health/substanceabuse providers, health careand the business community.
The group pulled togetherdata on the impact of heroinabuse. We saw how drug over-dose deaths in Kentucky qua-drupled between 1999 and 2013.The estimated economic im-pact of heroin abuse in ourstate is $6 billion each year.Northern Kentucky’s rate ofhepatitis C, a common diseaseamong IV drug users, is twicethat of the state and 24 timesthat of the United States.
Then, we researched solu-tions to the problem. We gath-
ered informa-tion fromacross thecountry, ana-lyzed it andbrought forthrecommenda-tions for whatwe think canwork in North-ern Kentucky.Those strate-gies arespelled out inthe plan, which
can be downloaded athttp://www.drugfreenky.org.
The plan outlines five areasof response. Think of these aspieces of one big pie – all arenecessary to successfully ad-dress heroin abuse in NorthernKentucky.
First, we must reduce sup-ply. Under the leadership ofthe N.Ky. Drug Strike Forceand local law enforcement, weneed to decrease the availabil-ity of heroin and other drugson our streets.
To reduce the demand forheroin, we need to focus onprevention, treatment andsupport in recovery. We needprograms that promote socialand emotional health. We needto learn how to use prescrip-tion drugs wisely, so their use
doesn’t lead to heroin abuse.Wemust expand and improvetreatment options for peoplewho are addicted. This in-cludes long-term residentialtreatment for adults and teens,as well as outpatient programs.When a person is undergoingtreatment, we need wrap-around services, like housingand job programs, to help indi-viduals focus on lifelong recov-ery.
Until people with heroinaddiction obtain treatment fortheir condition, we must de-crease the risk of transmittingdiseases and prevent themfrom dying from an overdose.We need to keep used needlesand syringes from our streets,parking lots, and other placesin the community and be ableto help people with heroinaddiction stop sharing theirdevices and get in to treat-ment. Wemust make the medi-cation naloxone more widelyavailable so that overdoses canbe quickly reversed and livessaved.
Fourth, we must advocatefor changes in legislation, edu-cation and programs that willenable Northern Kentucky toeffectively banish heroin fromour neighborhoods and com-munities and care for our
friends and family membersliving with addiction.
Lastly, we must have thecapacity to manage the changewe seek. We need to build onthe work of the heroin impactresponse group with the infra-structure needed to move theplan forward, implement strat-egies, ensure accountabilityand measure progress.
There is no turning back –this problem will not go awayon its own and we cannot af-ford to stay as we are. We havea plan now and wemust con-tinue to move forward to carryit out. For the sake of our chil-dren, our families, our neigh-borhoods, our businesses andour communities, we mustsucceed. And wemust do thiswork together.
Accomplishing these taskswill not be easy, and will re-quire numerous resources.But, our communities will bebetter, stronger and healthierif we can get those in needback on track and on a healthi-er, productive path. All of usbenefit.

doing a book toteach capital-ism. What arepeople doing toAmerica?”
I asked himwhat he meant.Dmitriy lit upat the invita-tion to discusscapitalism,explaining thathis family“fled” the
Soviet Union to escape of gov-ernment control. He describedgovernment mandated wagesand benefits as robbing thehuman spirit. He then beganasking me a series of ques-tions.
Dmitriy – What do you sayto people who think capitalismis all about greed?
Rob – I’m concerned about
greed. I’m not sure capitalismworks well when greed is theprimary motivation.
Dmitriy – There are greedypeople in any economic sys-tem. I lived in it in the SovietUnion. Greed does not go awaywith communism or socialism,trust me.
Dmitriy – It’s far worse thanthat. If you move to socialismor communism, things happenthrough a series of govern-ment favors and pay-offs.Graft becomes the currency ofcommerce, not freedom andmerit.
Dmitriy – There are havesand have nots, far worse thanin America. When it’s all aboutwho you know, hard work andeducation don’t matter much.Eventually, it ends up bringingthe country down.
Dmitriy – I’m a software
engineer and executive in NewYork. What do you think myco-workers think of me?
Rob - If you’re this vocal, Ibet it’s tough.
Dmitriy – The young work-ers think I’m stupid. I lived inthe world they want and Ithank God every day that weescaped it. I earned three de-grees here and lived the Amer-ican dream. Yet I’m the stupidone.
Most of us in America haveso much about which to bethankful and to celebrate, par-ticularly at the holidays. May-be it takes a person from theformer Soviet Union to fullyunderstand all of our country’smany blessings.

Holiday lessons of gratitude from Dmitriy

It may seem strange to bereading about a dog’s passing,but Greta was no ordinary dog.
She wasmy loyal companion;she was smart and sensitive;she wasmy pride and joy; shewasMs. Greta. She was afriendly little dog who lovedchildren. The kids would see uswalking down the street andyell, “Greta!” Her ears would goback, her tail would wag likecrazy, she would smile, and runtoward them, draggingme be-hind her.
Greta won the 2003 and 2008Wiener DogNationals at RiverDowns. She was10-years-old in2010 whenwon the “Running oftheWieners” on FountainSquare. Greta did a 20-yarddash in 3.48 seconds wearing ahot-dog bun! In 2011, she wonthe wiener dog races on the ice
at the Cy-clones’ hockeygame.
In Decem-ber 2005, manywondered ifGreta wouldwalk again, letalone run. Shehad a collisionwith an Englishbulldog on theplayground atdoggie day-
care and broke her back rightleg just above the knee. Gretarequired surgery and two pinsto repair the broken leg. Shewas doing great until April 2006when she started limping. X-rays revealed that one of thepins in Greta’s leg hadmovedandwas jabbing her right knee.The pin was surgically removed
May 2, 2006, andmy happy,playful Greta was back!
Greta trained for her raceswith the help of neighborhoodchildren. The kids would taketurns racing against Greta onthe sidewalk. Katy, Ally andRylee Keller and ColbyMischhad a lot of fun helping to keepGreta in shape.
WhenGreta was not runningraces, she was training to be atherapy dog and often accompa-niedme to visit patients at areanursing homes to fit hearingaids and custom earmolds.Greta was just long enough toplace her front paws on the sideof a wheel chair and receivepats on the head from thoseinterested in greeting her. Myofficemanager once took her tovisit a friend in a nursing home.She toldme howGreta’s demea-
nor seemed to change as soon asher orange therapy dog vestwas slipped over her head. Shewas an amazing ambassador ofgood cheer. She performedsimple tricks and enjoyed thepraise she got from thosewatching. Hermost impressivetrick was using her front paw to“makemusic” on a xylophone.
Greta loved to go for walks.She kept pace with her favoritecanine friend year after year atvarious charity walks. Dashielwas a Signal Dogweighing 60pounds to Greta’s 12; they werethe same color with soft, red-dish fur. As they walked side-by-side wearing their orangevests identifying them as“working dogs,” they were trulyan odd couple. People oftenpointed and chuckled at howfunny the pair looked.
Greta possessed amischie-vous sense of humor. Althoughreliably trained to give kisses oncommand (which the childrenloved!), she turned the tables onme at a “Bark in the Park” Redsgame.When the Kiss Cam ze-roed in on us during a slowmoment of the game, I askedGreta for kisses. She alooflyturned away, makingme giveher a kiss instead. The crowdwent wild with laughter, recog-nizing whowas boss of ourrelationship.
Greta died the day afterThanksgiving. She lived13 won-derful years. Her life left pawprints on the hearts of many.Greta, you will bemissed!

Snow didn’t delay Point’s fun eveningThe 43rd annual Joy to the
World benefit of The Point/Arcof Northern Kentucky was un-precedented. Expecting the sec-ond largest crowd ever – in ex-cess of 800 people – the Dec. 6fundraiser at Horseshoe CasinoCincinnati was directly impact-edbyanuninvitedguest.MotherNature pounded the area withsnow and paralyzed local trafficfor hours. Even so, more than400 supporters braved the ele-ments and helped raise morethan $100,000 for people with in-tellectual/ developmental dis-abilities.
Those able to attend enjoyeda holiday evening, which includ-ed welcoming Sinatra songsfromDon Fangman, dinner, andthe auctioning and raffling ofmore than 200 items. ShereePaolello of WLWT-TV newsagain served as master of cere-monies, and was able to keepthings on schedule despite thedelayed arrival of many guestsdue to the snow.
A highlight of the eveningwas the presence of TeddyKremer, theReds’ honorarybat-boy whose story appeared onESPN’s “E:60” show after being
featured in an Enquirer story.After working at Redsfest, Ted-dy was one of the few celebrityauctioneers able to make thateveing. Teddy and Sheree auc-tioned off his limited editionTopps baseball card, given toThe Point by Teddy’s parents,and generated $900.
“While the snow storm pre-vented us from having a fullhouse,” said Judi Gerding, ThePoint’s president. “Thanks to thesupport of our sponsors, guests,and volunteers, The Point wasstill dealt a winning hand.”

DECEMBER 26, 2013 • CCF RECORDER • B3LIFE
I’m going to have tomake sure I put makeupon before going out to thegrocery or retail store.The past couple of timesI was at these places,readers stopped me tochat. Both times I wasplanning on running in
and outquickly soI didn’tbotherwith make-up, only abit of lip-stick. Well,I had tolaugh af-terward atmy vanity.(Why did I
think no one would rec-ognize me “au naturel”?)
It’s times like thosethat keep me humble! Iwanted to let each of youknow howmuch I’veappreciated the caringand sharing that happenseach week through thiscolumn. Happy NewYear! I hope 2014 bringsmany blessings to yourhome.
Bob and John’seggplant casserole
Reader John Pancoastsent this, which is now afavorite for entertainingat his and wife Priscilla’shome. “From friend BobMartin of Loveland,”John said. John addedfresh, coarse driedbreadcrumbs on top forextra crunchiness. I’mlooking forward to mak-ing this myself. John saidif you use a 9-inch by13-inch pan, you’ll getmore crunchy top sur-face area.
1 large eggplant, peeled andcut into 1⁄2-inch cubes
1 sleeve of Townhousecrackers (about 40crackers), crumbledcoarsely
1 cup whipping cream8 oz. shredded extra-sharpcheddar
1 tablespoon lemon juice(optional)
Preheat oven to 350degrees. Heat six cupswater to full boil in largepot. Add lemon juice ifdesired (some think itkeeps eggplant fromdarkening). Add eggplantto boiling water. Stireggplant frequently, itwill be floating on top ofwater. Cook just untilwater starts to return toa boil, about three min-utes. Do NOT overdo thisstep or eggplant willbecome rubbery! Drainand transfer to sprayedtwo-quart casserole.Sprinkle crackers on top.Pour in cream and addcheese. Stir until blend-ed. Bake uncovered for 1hour or until it starts tobrown on top and gets alittle crusty aroundedges.
Priscilla Pancoast’seasy corn pudding
Another Pancoastfavorite. Let me know ifyou want this recipe.“Everyone who tastes itwants the recipe,” Pris-cilla told me.
No-fuss standing ribroast
One of the meat cut-ters at the grocery toldme he has success withthis holiday roast everytime he makes it. Gosh, a
pretty good testimonialcoming from him. Sear-ing the roast on the out-side at a high temper-ature insures a moistinside. Preheat oven to450 degrees. Season rawroast as desired. Placerib side down in a panand roast 10-15 minutes.Careful here, you mayget some splattering.Reduce oven temper-ature to 250 degrees androast until thermometerreads about 125 for rareor up to 145 for medium.The roast continues tocook at least 5 degreesmore when it’s out of theoven. Let it rest, tentedloosely with foil, forabout 20-30 minutes be-fore carving.
Caribbean citrussalad dressing
I really like this for aholiday buffet. Let guestsdrizzle on top of saladmade with mixed greens.This can be made severaldays ahead. If you havesome fresh parsley, tossa bit in. Taste beforeadding salt and pepper.Whisk together:
1 cupmayonnaise1⁄2 teaspoon garlic or to taste1 tablespoon honey1 tablespoon Dijonmustard2 tablespoons olive oil1⁄3 cup orange juiceconcentrate, thawed, or totaste
Brunch eggcasserole withsausage, potatoesand cheese
Nice for that NewYear’s day brunch. Sautésausage ahead of time
and bring to room tem-perature before continu-ing.
1pound hot pork sausage oryour favorite, cooked
3 cups frozen hash browns,thawed completely
12 oz. shredded cheddar12 large eggs, lightly beaten2 cups 2 percent milk orwhatever you have
Salt and pepper

It is a time of yearwhen family membersmay gather from hitherand yon. Stories andmemories will most likelybe shared. Somemay beembarrassing while oth-ers uplifting and joyful.This may be a great timeto record or write a chap-ter of your life story.
Memories can be verypowerful and remind usof life’s ups and downsand times of growth,maturity and happiness.Do you remember whatyour first job was like?What was the make andmodel of your first car?How did you feel whenyou held your first child?What events have hap-pened that have shapedwho you are?
Your special memoriesmay not only be impor-tant to you, but they couldbe important to family
and friendsas well.Many peo-ple wishthey knewmore abouttheir fam-ily history.Writingyour lifestory canhelp. Theaccount of
the series of events andexperiences that makeyou the person you aretoday can be written,recorded or both.
Life stories includeinformation about familyand friends, the differentlocations and dwellingsthat you’ve called home,your education, work,hobbies, spirituality andhow you were affected byimportant world events,such as the end of theVietnamWar or 9/11. Lifestories should also in-clude family medicalhistory as this can pro-vide useful informationfor both you and future
generations. Knowingyour family medical his-tory can encourage pre-ventative measures andeven lead to early detec-tion of certain healthproblems or disorders.
Documenting andsharing a life story hasmanymental and socialbenefits. The processcontributes to overallmental healthiness, rein-forces a sense of purposeand strengthens familyand caregiver relation-ships. In addition, thelegacy of a life story andfamily history influencesfuture generations.
Photographs, memen-tos and talking to otherscan be helpful tools to jarmemories. Nomatteryour age this might bethe time of year to writeor record a chapter ofyour life story.

Telling your life story
DianeMasonEXTENSIONNOTES
Question: My lawn,garden and landscapeall seem to be goingdownhill. Even with allthe rain, several plantsdied this fall, and I didnot harvest much pro-duce from the gardeneither.
Answer: Plant roots,then branches, die backduring dry years, andthen further declineoccurs in wet years like2013, from root rot dueto sitting in water-logged clay soils withlow oxygen. Add to thisthe ravages of variousair-borne and soil-borneplant diseases, and at-tack from various in-sects, including thou-sands of emerald ashborers now in NorthernKentucky, and it be-comes clear why somany plants are dying.Because of all these“natural factors” thatbring down plants, itbecomes essential thatwe do “our part” as“plant managers” tokeep the plants fromgoing into stress. There-fore, as we approach thenew year, let’s makesome resolutions.
» I will never toptrees, or pay someoneelse to do it, because itshortens the life of thetree, makes it weakerand more apt to breakapart, and causes sun-
scald,frostcracks,and attackfrom in-sects anddiseases.
» Whenpruning atree, I willneverleave abranch
stub, but will cut back toanother side branchthat’s at least one-thirdthe diameter of what it’sattached to, or cut backto the main trunk, leav-ing only the “branchcollar” or swelling nearthe trunk (usually sticksout only a quarter- to ahalf-inch for smallbranches, or one inchfor larger branches). Ifa longer stub is left, itwill die, and will eventu-ally rot out the largerbranch or trunk belowit.
» Whenmulchingaround trees, I willmulch only three inchesdeep, and I will never letthe mulch touch thetrunk of the tree, andcertainly I will never do“volcano mulching,”piling the mulch high upon the tree trunk, sincethis causes the tree barkand trunk to rot slowly,since the mulch trapsand holds too muchmoisture during the wet
seasons, and it also en-courages moles andfield mice to chew offthe bark of the treetrunk, killing the tree.
» I will always obtainlists of disease and in-sect-resistant plantsfrom the local Coopera-tive Extension ServiceOffice before planting,especially for disease-susceptible plants likeapples and crab apples,where many resistantvarieties exist.
» I will always sub-mit a soil sample beforeapplying lime to my soil,and before planting alawn, flowers, fruits,vegetables, trees orshrubs, since a soil test(free through your localNorthern KentuckyCounty Extension Of-fice) is the only way toknow if you need lime,sulfur, phosphorus orpotassium. Applying toomuch or too little of anyof these will be harmfulto plants. Each plant hasa unique requirementfor desirable soil pH andnutrient levels. Onceyou know your soil pH,the Extension Officealso has lists of whichplants like acid soils oralkaline soils.
