MT. WASHINGTON — A re-quest to build a cellphone tow-er inMt. Washington has beendenied.

Verizon Wireless had sub-mitted a plan to construct a160-foot tall cellphone towerat2115BeechmontAve. The tow-erwouldbe in thebusinessdis-trict by Tom Roth Place.

According to a report filedby the The Cincinnati ZoningHearing Examiner, Verizondid not “demonstrate” why itcould not use a pre-existingcellphone tower in the busi-ness district.

Additionally, the reportsaid the proposed tower didnot incorporate a design “thatis least intrusive for the area.”

Use of thepre-existing tow-er locatedbytheDairyMartat2249 Beechmont Ave. hadbeen recommended by Mt.WashingtonCommunityCoun-cil members who attended theJan. 8 zoning hearing.

They also cited the resultsfrom a 2010 zoning case in-volving a request to build a150-foot tall tower in PleasantRidge. Construction of thetower was denied.

Thecouncilmemberssaidanumber of the conditions inthe case were similar to thosein Mt. Washington such as theaesthetic impact the towerwould have on the surround-ing community.

The decision was wel-comed by recently electedcouncil board member SueDoucleff, who attended thezoning hearing.

“This is good news for the

community,”said Dou-cleff. “Thisproves whatcan happenwhen you doyour home-work and

present a logicaland legally-

based argument.”Doucleff said thatwhileVe-

rizon mounted a strong casethe council members did aswell.

“Verizon did not prove (it)had investigated all co-loca-tion possibilities,” she said.

The cellphone tower was adiscussion topic during theJan. 15 Mt. Washington Com-munity Council meeting.

Council was considering itsoptions in the event the towerwas approved. The councilboard was leaning toward ap-pealing the decision if neces-sary.However, legal and filingcosts had been a concernamong some of the members.

Jo Ann Kavanaugh, a for-mer board member of the Mt.WashingtonCommunityCoun-cil who also attended the hear-ing, said even though the tow-er would not have been in aprominent location, it wouldstill be in full view of anybodydriving or walking throughMt. Washington.

Kavanaugh, though, felt thematter may resurface.

“There is a window inwhich Verizon can appeal (thedecision) so we will have towait and see,” she said.

Representatives for Veri-zonWirelesswereunable tobereached for comment.

A request by Verizon Wireless to construct a cell phone tower in theMt. Washington business district was denied. The Mt. WashingtonCommunity Council had objected to the potential installation ofanother cell phone tower in the community. A cell tower, shown inthis picture, is currently located at 2249 Beechmont Ave. FORREST

NEWTOWN —The village hasa problem of the prehistoricsort.

There are a number of Na-tive American artifacts and re-productions in the AmericanIndian Education Center thatNewtown recently opened inthe village’s new town hall at3537 Church St.

But it’s a wooly mammothtusk that’s long been displayedin the old town hall across thestreet at 3536 Church St. that iscausing a fossil fuss.

The 7-foot-3-inch tusk wasdonated to Newtown after itwas found inCampDennison in

1967.“It has been in our display

case for years,” said VillageCouncilman Chuck Short.

“We may have the Cincin-nati Museum Center do some-thing to help preserve it andthen put it in a different case.”

The reason?“The case is not museum-

quality,” said Councilman JoeHarten.

“So we are discussingwhether to have the CincinnatiMuseum Center conserve itproperly, and if so, what shouldbe done with it afterwards.

“It probably would not sur-vive moving to the new build-ing without some conservationwork and it might not surviveverymuch longer in its currentcase,” Harten said.

“So something needs to bedone.”

The Cincinnati MuseumCenter helped Newtown re-searchandput together sixdis-play cases in council chambersat the new town hall to show-case artifacts – some on loan

Newtown officials are trying to decide what to do with this wooly mammoth tusk.JEANNE HOUCK/THE COMMUNITY

Is there a phrase thatperfectly describes An-derson Township?

How about “Greenerthan Green?” Andersonwas, after all, Ohio’s firsttownship to implement aprogramdedicated topre-serving greenspace.

Anderson Township,like many communities,doesn’t have a motto orslogan, but many othershave adopted them. Bata-via’s is, “Historic Past,Bright Future.” Alexan-dria, Ky., is the place“WheretheCityMeets theCountry,” and Blue Ashwants to “Aspire.Achieve. Advance.”

ResidentDr. JohnWeh-by said it’s about time forAnderson Township tohave a slogan, andhe’s theonewhooffered“Greenerthan Green.”

“When you’re called atownship rather than acity, I think you lose rec-ognition a little bit,” hesaid. “I think AndersonTownship deserves tohave a slogan. I think it

will bring some prestige.”Resident Mary Bare

was a bit surprised whenshe learned AndersonTownship didn’t have aslogan. Bare liked“Greener than Green”and said even if it wasn’tthat, having a townshipmotto is a good idea.

“It would help attractpeople,” she said. “It doesfor other places.”

Margaret Kuebler wasalso unaware that Ander-son Township didn’t havea slogan. She agrees itmight help attract morepeople to the community,which could boost proper-ty values. Kuebler likesWehby’s suggestion butsaid, “I think it shouldalsofocus on the publicschools.”

Almosteverycompanyor association has somephrase that provides rec-ognition to a broad base,Wehby said, and he thinksthis would help make An-derson Township morevisible to those outsidethe immediate communi-ty.

“It’s an outstandingtownship, it’s run very

well and the quality of liv-ing is very good,” he said.“I think that (having a slo-gan is) way overdue.”

But resident Jim Coopsaid he’s not sure thetownship needs a slogan

or motto. “It doesn’t seemlike it’d help much,” hesaid.

If officials want toadopt one Coop said theyshould “make it a contest”and ask for suggestions.

Vickie Laumann saidshe’s indifferent abouthaving an AndersonTownship slogan. Lau-mann likes “Greener thanGreen,” but she also saidthe township should seek

other ideas from the com-munity.

The idea of having atownship motto wasbrought up at a meeting,but trustees haven’t actedon it.

Anderson Twp. considering a motto

Anderson Township has more than 700 acres of protected greenspace that will remain in a natural state. Because of this,and it being the first Ohio township with a dedicated greenspace program, resident Dr. John Wehby suggested “Greenerthan Green” as a newmotto for Anderson Township. PROVIDED

In a little more thantwo years Stonekry Re-sale Books did a world ofgood for the community.

The Anderson Town-

ship bookstore, 8523Beechmont Ave., closeditsdoorsSaturday, Jan.18.

“It’s sad we won’t havethe one-on-one with thefamilies who would comein … because it did be-come that neighborhoodgathering place,” saidKristaBastin,whostartedthe store in 2011 with herthen-husband, Troy.

“Many (customers) be-came friends and part ofthe family. It’s up to Godwhat the next directionis.”

Stonekry started as aband and evolved into anonprofitorganizationbe-fore the bookstoreopened. Bastin said herstepson, Caleb, who hasautism and is now 13, in-spired them to start theretail shop as a way tohelp increase autismawareness.

“There are so manyfamiliesbeingaffectedbyautism, and we thoughthaving a safe place thatwas family and specialneeds friendly with re-sources for people tocome get was probablythe best way to accom-plish that,” Bastin said ofwhy they opened thebookstore.

It was a difficult deci-

sion to close, but Bastinsaid she’s glad they wereable tomake a difference.Many people came to thestore and shared personalstories about how autismtouched their lives orasked questions about allaspects of autism spec-trum disorder.

“Seeing the progresswe’ve made in the under-standing and the aware-ness is incredible,”Bastinsaid.

And many Stonekrypatrons showed an out-pouring of support on

Facebook, after a notewas posted about thestore’s closing.

“This is sad news formany of us,” wrote MimiSinclair. “Thank you forall of your time and ef-forts in creating the spe-cialplace thatwasStonek-ry.”

AnnaKitaevichNaber-haus said Stonekry hastouched many people andthe nonprofit will con-tinue to have strong sup-port.

Rebecca Tian recentlyjoined a select group of stu-dents in the Forest Hills SchoolDistrict when she earned a per-fect score on her ACT - 36.

The Anderson High Schoolsenior secured her perfectscore on her first try at thetest.She said shewas both surprisedand pleased by her score.

“I did not expect to get a per-fectscore,”shesaid. “I feltpret-ty confident that I scoreda34ora 35.”

Rebecca attri-butes the gradeto a combinationof things includ-ing: great sup-port from herparents (BinyuTian and Meng-meng Jiang); theculmination of

her studies over the years, thepositive influence of her teach-ers from kindergarten to now,and preparation.

For threemonths prior to thetest, Rebecca adhered to asteadyACTpreparation regimeprescribed by her parents. Be-ginning three months prior toher ACT testing date Rebeccabegan taking practice tests. Shetook one test per week for twomonths, then one month out in-creased to two practice testsper week.

While many have asked Re-beccaabouther futureplans forcollege, the answer is not easy.

Her interests are many so nar-rowing down her focus is prov-ing to be a challenge. At thispoint, her options are open forboth her major and where shewill continue her education af-ter high school.

As she ponders her futureeducational options, she’s alsovery invested in enjoying hersenior year of high school. Re-becca will continue to workhard as a student and is lookingforward to participating in as

many after-school activities astime will allow.

One such focus will be thea-ter. She’s hopeful of taking aleadership role behind thescenes. She’s also interested inschool clubs. In the past she’senjoyed an art club and cookingclub. In addition, she has beeninvolved with Academic QuizTeam, orchestra (viola), LatinClub, National Honor Societyand more.

MT. WASHINGTON — FriarTuck would be proud.

Not only did several mem-bers of the Anderson HighSchool wrestling team imitatehis signature tonsure for the35th annual King of the Hillmeet, theyalso took their sixthconsecutive crown in theneighborhood rivalry Jan. 15.

OK, truth be told, Redskinwrestlers were more interest-ed in celebrating assistantcoach TimAllen than fictionalfriars.

Allen remains the onlycoach towinKingof theHill ti-tles at Anderson, McNicholasand Turpin. His androgenic al-opecia provided the inspira-tion for the squad – who nor-mally rock Mohawks for theKing of the Hill – to try a dif-ferent haircut in 2014.

While the look might havebeen bad – check that, the lookwas bad - the resultant wres-tling was not.

Anderson took 10 of the 13contestedweight classes on itsway to a 60-12 win over Turpin

and a 63-9 victory over hostMcNick. The Spartans beatMcNick 45-12 to take secondplace.

“It doesn’t get old,” headcoach Luke Cripe said of win-ning six in a row. “We’ve got agood group of kids who areworking really hard. We werein a few situations that couldhave gone either way tonightand our guys found a way towin.

“I have to credit our coach-es there. We have an incredi-ble staff and they do a greatjob getting us ready for everymeet, but especially this one.

“Our kids know about thehistory of the King of the Hill.We make a point of lettingthem know about that. Therearen’t many events like thisthat have lasted as long as thisone. We’re proud of how well

MT. WASHINGTON — Takeheart. Childrendo listen to theirparents.

Greg Kent lifted his rightarm - elbow cocked, wrist bentforward - and proved it.

“My dad taught me that, togoose neck it, to followthrough,” Kent said of his earli-est basketball memories. “Istarted playing at the YMCAwhen I was 4 or 5 and my dadwas my coach.”

A dozen years later the An-derson Township resident andImmaculate Heart of Maryalumnus is a junior point guardat McNicholas High School inhis first season starting for theRockets.

While he was taught to shootasa tyke,Kent ismakinganameforhimself asapasser.He leadsthe Greater Catholic LeagueCoed in assists at 4.6 per game,includinga seasonhighnine inaleague game against HamiltonBadin Jan. 10.

“I’m looking to pass,” Kentsaid. “As a point guard I’m look-ing to get my teammates in-volved as much as possible.

“When I’m driving I alwayslook for somebody to get theball to. When they collapse, Ican kick it outside. When theycome out on me, I look to thepost. If they don’t do anything,then I can go to the basket.”

Head coach Tim Monahansaid that’s impressive early inhis varsity career.

“We knew he could be a veryspecial player. It’s been nice tohave a point guard who distrib-utes like he does, but he canscore and he can defend, too.

“He’s got those big shouldersand he’s physical. He uses hisbodywell.Hecanget to the rim,buthecanshoot the three, too, ifwe need him to do that. Westress patience and he usuallymakes pretty good decisionswith the ball.”

Kent – who also pitches andplays outfield for the McNickbaseball team–saidhis favoritebasketball memory was win-ning a CYO city title as an IHMfourth-grader. On the high-school level, he hit a half-courtshot as a garbage-time sub in alosing effort against Taft as asophomore, but believes bettermemories lie ahead.

Heading in to the secondhalfof the basketball season, he’slearned a few lessons fromMcNick’s three losses.

“When things get tough youhave to keep your composure,”he said. “If I’m not in control,

A publication of

The Anderson Parks popularDaddy Daughter Dance is com-ing up on Feb. 7 and 8. Accord-ingly, I prepare to answer thefrequently asked questionassociated with this delightfulprogram…why isn’t the Dancein Anderson Township?

The short answer is becausecurrently there is no facility inAnderson that can feasiblyaccommodate this Valentineevent. In recent years, theBallroom at Northern Ken-tucky University (“NKU”) hasbeen the closest, nicest, mostaffordable, and available facil-ity capable of hosting our 1,200guests over two nights.

The long answer is thatAnderson Township needs arecreational facility upgrade.Lacking gym/event space has

been an issuefor the An-derson Parkssince we start-ed our firstyouth sportsprogram in1983 with thir-ty girls in abasketballleague.

We havesince grown to

offer decades of basketball andvolleyball for girls and boys;summer camps; events in-cluding Santa’s Workshop,Mother Son Dance, Jr. HighPark Parties; adult leagues andclasses; and much more, sevendays a week.

We’ve always made the bestof what we’ve had to work with

and we are proud of our re-sourcefulness. We are gratefulfor our community partnerswho enable us to function byrenting us their facilities, in-cluding: the Forest Hills SchoolDistrict; Beech Acres Par-enting Center; Anderson SeniorCenter; and area churches.

The Anderson TownshipPark District is working on aplan to add a recreation facilityin Anderson. We are talkingjust the basics: multiuse court/event space and a walking trail,bringing indoors the best ofwhat we do outdoors.

No pools, no fitness equip-ment, just what we know weneed from our 10 years of expe-rience leasing the RecPlex andnearly 40 years of being in theactive recreation business.

Why do you upgrade a com-munity? To keep it relevant. Sopeople will choose AndersonTownship over other communi-ties to buy a home or locatetheir business.

Adults want programs andleagues, too, and today’s sen-iors are more active far laterinto life than ever before. It’stime to take our community’sfacilities lid off so our pro-gramming can grow to servethe year-round recreationalneeds of residents of all ages.

Clean, neat, and safe recrea-tion facilities add value to acommunity. The economicimpact our Daddy DaughterDance has on the area is exten-sive, even when held at NKU.

Area florists, shoe stores,restaurants, and salons con-

firm our event date each yearso they are prepared for thefrenzy for patent leathers,tights, dry cleaning, bouton-nieres and corsages, hair andnail services, dresses, dinner,and ice cream.

Our vision is to have theindoor space to run moreleagues and programs for ourresidents and to one day holdour Daddy Daughter Dance inAnderson Township.

Until then, Northern Ken-tucky will likely continue to bethe home of this event tradi-tion, a highlight of the year formany area dads and daughters,including my daughter and me.

Ken Kushner is executive direc-tor of the Anderson TownshipPark District.

Why isn’t dance in Anderson Twp.?

KenKushnerCOMMUNITY PRESSGUEST COLUMNIST

Last week’s questionDo you think school officials

made the right decision recentlyby canceling classes because ofcold temperature? Why or whynot?

“Yes, I work in a school dis-trict that has cut busing so stu-dents would have to walk twomiles to school. Those same stu-dents are often underdressedwithout proper coats, hats, orgloves. Twodayswithout schoolfor safety is not that awful.”

K.S.

“I have every confidence inCPS to make the right call.There are so many movingparts in that decision it iswrongto second guess. I know I didn’twant to be out in that danger-ously cold weather.”

Terry Garvin

“Yes. Some children ride theschoolbusorwalk toschool, anditwas so cold thatwithin15min-utes there was a chance forfrostbite. Not worth risking in-jury to have our little ones out-side when it is that cold.

“Also, older children oftenareunderdressedfor theweath-er, and somemay not even haveappropriate coats, hats orgloves. I was happy to see thateven the universities kept thestudents inside on those days.”

D.P.

“As a school teacher, I hatehaving snow days because itreally messes up what I have

planned to teach any givenweek.

“However, with our overlypaternalistic society in whichkids are rarely never made todeal with any personal chal-lenges not on the athletic field,it seemed pretty ridiculous tocancel school because of the po-lar vortex drivingwind chill be-low zero for two days.

“I know there are studentswho have towait outside for thebus, walk to school, or walkacross big campuses – and thismay lead to frostbite; andschools also had problems withburst pipes andboilers not com-ing on to heat buildings.

“It ends up a judgment call;in that case, the school authori-tieserron thesideofcautionforstudents’ perceived safety; andthey always will, so they don’tget sued.”

TRog

“I don't think kids today areas tough as kids in the old daysso I see why they closed theschools.

“Personally I have a grand-daughter in the third grade andI am glad she wasn't out in thethis weather. If they miss toomany days these days will beadded to the endof theyear so itis really no big deal.”

Dave D.

“Yes, this was the right deci-sion. Most parents, myself in-cluded, longed to see the end ofChristmas break as the kidswere starting to bounce off thewalls at home. However, wewere approaching record lows.

“If frostbite orworsewere tooccur as kids waited for busesschool administrators wouldhave had a heavy burden toshoulder. Make the days upwhen the weather is better -kids first!!”

T.B.

“This time I agree with whatthey did for the sake of the kids.I know therewill be a lot of peo-ple thatwill say theyhadtowalkto school in zero degree or lesstemps., but even back in the’50s, ’60s, and ’70s there wereschools cancelations.

“I'm sure that when the win-ters of1977and1978hit their lit-tle buttswerewarmathomebe-cause everything closed down.Now don't lie, even the express-ways were shut down.

“Oh yes, more than 10,000people claimed that theywalked on the Ohio River andmore than 100,000 claims thattheyattendedthegreat 'FreezerBowl' in a stadium that held

50,000 plus.“Give thekids and teachers a

day off for the adverseweatheras I'm sure itwill notmake a bigchange in the students grade,but I'm sure the teachers willwant their pay plus the extradays for the make-up days, ifthey occur.

“My only gripe is – wherewere the kids when the snowfell and neighbors needed theirdriveways and walks shoveled.Oh yes, I forgot, our parentsbought us an iPad, iPhone, etc.for Christmas so we can sit onour butts and talk to our friendsin the warmth of a home by thefireplace.”

D.J.

“It was a great idea! Not foronly the students, but for theopening and closing doors onschool buildings stressing theheating system, less wear andtear on school buses, personalvehicles, and not to mentionroad conditions.”

O.H.R.

“Asa37-year-oldIdon't thinkI should be saying back whenwe were kids...but we did notget school called off because itwas cold. (And we went toschool during the last -30 freezeout.) Or tomorrow morning itMIGHT snow let's call school at4 p.m. the day before...youwentto school every single day.

“We also did not have amini-van caravan at the end of everystreet to stay warm. Youlearned to dress appropriately

for weather and if you stayedhome you may have missed atest, things didn't change be-causeof theweather.Thesekidsand people making the deci-sions need to toughen up.”

Angie Nordheim

“This wasn't just 'cold tem-perature' that arrived in theTristate, itwasseverelydanger-ousforanywarm-bloodedbeingto be exposed for even a fewminutes.

“Having been in the educa-tionbusinessforover30years, Ihave witnessed firsthand thecountless times large numbersof students arrive to school inthemiddle ofwinternot proper-ly dressed for the weather.

“The fault of the parents?Sometimes, but children, nomatter the age, will wear whatthey like,what is in fashion, andnotwhat theyneed tokeep fromexperiencing severe cold andpossibly frostbite. Often, thosewinter hats, coats and gloveswill find their way to a back-pack,assoonas theparents turnaway.

“Noteverybodycanaffordtodrive their kids to school, notevery child has warm enoughclothing, so every effort mustbemade to keep them safe. Theschools made the correct deci-sion to close the schools, andsurely would have faced law-suits had any child come toharm because of the inclementweather.”

J.B.

tions with easy vision key-boards and special adaptationsthat can adjust the desk heightand move or tilt keyboards andscreens,” said Kay.

The new building also has akitchen designed for peoplewith mobility challenges andlarge accessible individualrestrooms with special lifts tohelp people who use wheel-chairs or have mobility chal-lenges.

In the expanded Adult Ser-vices Program, participantscan choose from five interestareas: Computer Technology,Art, Continuing Knowledge;Recreation and CommunityOutings.

All individuals participatein Health andWellness, whichincludes exercise and nutri-tion, health education withcommunity health profession-als, safety and personal re-sponsibility.

Stepping Stones will con-tinue its Adult Services pro-gram at the Batavia site. Par-ticipants of both programs willhave access to the Norwoodfacility’s amenities.

Adult programs run 9 a.m.to 3 p.m. Monday through Fri-day and are designed to helpadults with disabilities buildconfidence and independence,improve health and fitness,and recognize and celebratetheir abilities, said Kay.

“Many people go to work-shops. We want to be an al-ternative to a workshop. Thefun place, offering recreationand social activities,” Kay said.Some participants come fivedays a week. Others may splitthe week between SteppingStones and a workshop or otheractivity.

“When people come here, Isee them light up socially. We

Stepping Stones will ex-pand its programs foradults with disabilities in

the new year as part of themerger of United CerebralPalsy of Greater Cincinnatiwith Stepping Stones.

The new programming willinclude computer technology,art programs including paint-ing, weaving and photography,and expanded communityexploration outings whereadults with disabilities caninteract in the community.

The expansion is the resultof combining resources of bothagencies, said Stepping StonesManager of Adult ServicesAmanda Kay, of Withamsville.

The larger Stepping Stonesnow has three program loca-tions: Indian Hill, Batavia andthe newly renovated UnitedCerebral Palsy site in Nor-wood.

Stepping Stones and UnitedCerebral Palsy are both UnitedWay partner agencies andmerged in November, recog-nizing their commonmissionto serve individuals with awide range of disabilities.

Stepping Stones continuesto serve children, teens andadults in day and overnightcamps, respites and education-al programs at the Indian Hilland Batavia sites.

In January, the adult dayprograms at Indian Hill willmove to the Norwood site,where United Cerebral Palsyhas conducted a similar pro-gram.

“This is an exciting move,”said Kay. “The new building isspecifically designed for thetype of programs we offer. Wenow have an art studio withlots of natural light and colorand space.

“We have 14 computer sta-

have a laid-back pace thatinvites people to participate infun programs,” said Kay. “Peo-ple who otherwise might feelshy or reserved feel comfort-able making relationships.They find their way to fit in.”

A key component of everyactivity is choice. The art pro-gram is a dramatic example.

“Art is not only a way tocommunicate and express yourfeelings,” said Art ProgramCoordinator Katie Brenner of

Northside. “The whole processis making decisions andchoices – what color to use?What do I want on this side? Isit finished? They are in con-trol. So many of the people weserve rely on a lot of otherpeople to do things for them.Here they can make their owndecisions,” said Brenner.

Some art activities willresult in a finished piece, oth-ers are about the art experi-ence. “Wemight put paint in a

salad spinner and see whathappens. We’ve takenMatch-box cars and driven themthrough the paint to createpatterns.”

Every activity in the AdultServices program expandsexperience, which builds confi-dence and independence, saidKay.

A couple of weeks ago,Linda Vaccariello ofCincinnati Magazinecalled and asked if Iwould share some tips onmaking goetta for anarticle she was writing. Itold her I had just made abatch since I wanted toshare my latest recipewith you.

Goetta, as many of youknow, is a Cincinnati andNorthern Kentucky spe-cialty. Goetta has Ger-manic origins, but mostpeople who live in Ger-many have never heardof it. Inge, my Germandaughter-in-law whogrew up in Germany, saidshe didn’t have a clueuntil she moved to Cin-cinnati. Yes, it’s definite-ly a Cincinnati andNorthern Kentucky“thing.”

A possibility about thename is that it comesfrom the German word“gote” or “gotte,” whichmeans peeled grain. Theword became American-ized to mean “goetta,”since the ingredient youcannot do without forauthentic goetta is pin-head oats (also calledsteel-cut oats). Dorsel’sand Bob’s RedMill arecommon brands.

Goetta is a “hand-me-down” recipe and eachfamily’s is a bit different.It’s a ritual in my familyand I even use mymoth-er-in-law Clara’s speciallong-handled spoon thatshe inherited from hermother.

Jon Peters, a WesternHills reader, makes hisfather-in-law Bill Sand-ers’ recipe.

“I even use his panand really enjoyed mak-

ing it thisyear.There’ssomethingspecialabout us-ing a fam-ily recipeand mak-ing a bigbatch thatyou’re

going to share with fam-ily and friends,” he toldme. Jon and Ellen’s kidsget to help, as well. Joncalls his loaves of goetta“bricks,” and his family’srecipe is on my blog.

Rita’s goettaI’ve been making my

mother-in-law Clara’sgoetta for years withpork shoulder, just as shemade it when theyslaughtered hogs in au-tumn. I used to cookgoetta from start to fin-ish on top of the stove,but my sister-in-law,Claire Yannetti, gave methis tip: Cook meat andveggies on top of thestove and cook oats in theslow cooker. Much easi-er! Stovetop cookingrequires frequent stir-ring and careful watch-ing so oats don’t stick.Here’s my latest and, Ithink, best version.

3 pounds fresh porkshoulder, bone-in ifpossible, cut in half to fitpan

3 cups each: chopped onionsand celery (include celeryleaves)

4 dried bay leaves2 tablespoons salt, or moreto taste

1 tablespoon black pepper,or more to taste

8-10 cups water or more if

needed5 cups pinhead oats

Put meat, onions, cel-ery, bay, salt and pepperin large stockpot. Covermeat with water by aboutan inch or so. Bring to aboil, cover, lower to asimmer and cook untilmeat falls from bone, 3hours or so. Add water ifnecessary to keep meatjust under liquid. Re-move meat and let coolbefore chopping finely.Save liquid. (You couldalso cook meat and veg-gies in slow cooker andyou probably won’t needto add more water).

Spray a 6-7 quart slow

cooker and turn on high.Put liquid in and addoats, stirring to blend.Put lid on and cook twohours or so, stirring occa-sionally, until oats arethoroughly cooked andtender, and mixture isvery thick. If necessary,add more water as oatscook, but be careful. Themixture, when cooked,should be thick enoughfor a spoon to stand up inwithout falling over andbe difficult to stir. Addmeat and continue tocook, covered, for about45 minutes, stirring occa-sionally. Add more saltand pepper if you want –don’t be shy about adding

them. Remove bayleaves.

Line bread pans withwrap or foil. Put goetta inpans, smoothing tops. Letcool, cover and store inrefrigerator for 12 hoursor so to set up. Store inrefrigerator a week orseveral months in freez-er.

To serve: Fry withbacon until both goettaand bacon are crisp onboth sides. Or in bacongrease.

Tip: Quick-cookingpinhead oats now avail-able. I just found this outand have not tested therecipe with these, so Ican’t recommend the

substitution yet.
