Maple Knoll Village hasteamed up with the Public Li-brary of Cincinnati and Hamil-ton County in a pilot program toloan iPads and iPad minis togroup of residents.

The seniors attended a train-ingsessionNov.12, learninghowto navigate the lightweight com-puters.

“It allows 20 of our residentstest and see how comfortablethey are with technology andbring them up to date with ad-vances that are out there.”

The library has set up theiPads and iPad minis with theability to remotely update appli-cations and troubleshoot prob-lems, though they won’t be ableto access e-mail or read pass-words.

The devices came with in-structions for use, though resi-dents participated in a trainingsession when they picked uptheir iPads.Along with the pro-tective cover and carrying casecame a warning about the inter-net as a vast, unregulated medi-um, and urged responsible use.

While the portable tabletswerenewtotheMapleKnoll res-

idents, computers aren’t.Bill Ostrander received an

iPad mini. He already owns lap-top desktop computers, and aKindle.

“I use it for getting librarybooks, and I do a fair amount ofmy reading now on the Kindle,”he said. “I prefer reading on aniPadorKindlebecause the light-ing is better and it’s easier toread (than a newspaper).”

Connie Smiley enjoys fea-tures such as e-mail and the cal-endar.

“Iwas playingwith the calen-dar thismorningand Iputting intoday’s activities to see,” Smiley

said. “It just beeped and toldmeI have a meeting today in mar-keting.”

Dick Haley would considerbuying one after learning to usehis loaner.

“We do a lot of reading whenwe travel, we always take 8-10paperbacks with us,” he said. “Ithought it would be great do dothat on something like this.

“It’s easy to carry, it’s simple,it’s lightweight,” Haley said.“We have a carrying case that itfitsright in to,andyouhaveyourtrainingmaterials in the case.

“This works exceptionallywell.”

Mix a bushel of person-ality, a peck of energy, andscads of imagination andyou have Wyoming’s Car-rie Short-Lippert.

Her mom, Kay (neeSears), grew up on BurnsAvenue and Carrie stilllives in the same house. InCarrie’s words, “Whywould anyone want to liveanywhere else? Cincinnatihas everything.”

Carrie wants to tell youabout the longstanding na-tivity scene at FriendshipUnited Methodist Church.Her mother started theiryouthgroup in1979andbe-gan this drive-throughevent in December 1982.The ideacameafter sheat-

tendedThe Sta-tions oftheCross ata Catho-licchurch.Carrie’sgrand-motherhadhada

stroke and couldn’t attendthe nativity at Krohn Con-servatory, so Kay decidedto present it at Friendship.

After Kay’s 1993 death,youth directors, includingCarrie’s sister Cady Short-Thompson and her hus-band, Steve, took over theproduction.Carrieassisted

them. Carrie has been do-ing the event for 14 years.

Using live animals,there are 10 scenes, eachdepicting scripture fromSt. Luke’s Gospel, writtenon old barnwood. Carrie isso excited, because thisyear she finally got herwish to have a camel pro-vided by Honey HillFarms. The Magi will bedressed in vibrant jewelsandrobesofgreen, fuchsiaand sapphire.

Scenery, costumes,etc... are depicted as accu-rate to the period as possi-ble. The first scene is verycolorful with hand maid-ens and a Roman soldierguarding Caesar Augustus

as he issues the census de-cree for individuals to re-port back to their hometowns.

High schoolers portrayMary and Joseph with adonkey in front of Bethle-hem. This breed of donkeyhas a natural cross on itsback. Shepherds guardtheir sheep against a back-drop of trees and, weatherpermitting, warm them-selves before a fire pit.Girls have always por-trayed Gabriel, and a spot-light illuminates the angel.

King Herod’s palace isthenewestscene. It fits theterrain at the south end ofthe church. Middle schoolkids typically portray the

Roman soldiers. Foreshad-owingChrist’scomingasinthe book of Isaiah, hungrypeasantsgatheraroundthefire. Mary, Joseph andtheir donkey are refusedaccommodations by theinnkeeper. Then a heaven-lyhostof five tosevenhighschool “angels” sings “Glo-ry to God.”

It takes a ton of plan-ning and Carrie begins inSeptember: schedulingabout 200 children andadults (every 20minutes isthe optimum time for thekids to change shifts),props, costuming, refur-bishing scenery, and ofcourse, the unexpected.Oneyearher fatherplayeda centurion because chil-dren had strep and fevers.Thunder and lightningmade themclose early lastyear.

Scenery is set up theSaturday before. They putup the lights after churchon the Sunday of the nativ-ity, give everything theonceoverandmom’sapplymakeup, and costume thechildren.

Carrie says this is nother show. John Beesonknows how every set issupposed to look; Ken

Rominger lights thescenes; CarolBeeson, JoanKrieg and Carolyn Randmake the kids’ favoritepart – donuts. This is a giftto the community, so comeby from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.Dec. 8.

PRESS PREPS HIGHLIGHTS

By Scott SpringerandMark [email protected]@communitypress.com

The balls were officiallyrolled out inNov.1, but prepara-tion began way before that forboys high school basketballteams in the Tri-County Presscoverage area. The following isa rundown of the local squads.

PrincetonThe Vikings went 13-11 last

season, finishing second in theGreater Miami Conference af-ter their late-seasonwinagainstSycamore forced a four-way tieat the top of the league.

Head coach Mike Andersongraduated seven players fromthat club, including four start-ers.

The lone returning starter isRyan Bricking, a senior shoot-ing guard who shot 58 percentfrom the field last season, in-cluding 39 percent from three-point range.

Seniors Elijah Abrams andAntonio Crawford at forwardand Josh Jasper at guard bringvarsity experience. Sodo juniorpoint guard JordanBradley andclassmate D.J. Lewis

Keep an eye on junior VonnyIrvin – one of the top-rankedAAU players in the state – whoprobably won’t start, but whocould log more minutes thananyone.

“He can play any positiononethroughfourandhe’llbe thefirst guy off the bench,” Ander-son said. “And he might notcome off, he’s so versatile.”

Anderson said his team willget up and down the floor in ahurry.

“Ourtallestguy is6-foot-2, sowe can’t sit in the half court andtry to guard people,” he said.“We want to put people throughwhat we call 32 minutes ofPrinceton basketball. We’ll runand we’ll guard and we’ll gohard all the time.”

Anderson said the GMC willbe its usual challenging self,with teams like Lakota West,Fairfield, Sycamore and OakHills vying with the Vikings forthe top spot.

“The league is so good and sodeep,” he said. “We’ll probablyend up beating each other up.But you know with the talentand the coaching staffs wehave, there are going to be a lotof quality teams.”

Princeton opens the seasonTuesday, Dec. 3, at Elder andhosts Colerain Dec. 6.

Wyoming

Several players return fromyearoneof theMattRooksWyo-ming boys basketball regime.Asarookiecoach,Rookswas13-11 (6-8 Cincinnati Hills League).

From that squad, startersAhmad Frost, Marc Akinbi andMasonRogers return.Frost andAkinbi are seniors and Rogersis a sophomore.

Frost averaged more than 16points per game as a junior andwas CHL first team. He beginstheseason320pointsawayfrom1,000 for his career. ForwardAkinbi averaged 9.0 points and6.7 rebounds and was CHL sec-ond team.

Addingdepth to theCowboysare 6-foot-5 senior center Grif-fin O’Gara, and juniors WalkerLewis and Duke Brunke.Rounding out theWyoming ros-ters are seniors Will Marty, No-lan Prevish and Joel Weis, ju-nior Nate Lowe and freshmanJake Edmonds.

“We have a lot of experiencefrom last year and are lookingto build on what we did,” Rookssaid. “Wehavea lotofdepth thatwill help us with our style ofplay.”

Wyoming begins the seasonon the road at Monroe Nov. 30.The Cowboys are “road war-riors” until they return homeDec. 13 for a CHL tilt with Tay-lor.

MoellerThe Crusaders lived up to

their typical standards last sea-son by winning the GreaterCatholic League-South at 10-0and finishing 23-3 after a toughloss at theUniversity ofDaytonArena lastMarch to Springboroin the tournament.

Carl Kremer took anotherGCL-South Coach of the Yearaward and could be in line foranother as first-teamer GrantBenzinger returns for his sen-ior season.

The Wright State commitwill be joined by senior TreyHawkins and junior Nate Fow-ler, who made GCL-South sec-ond team last winter.

Benzinger was third in theleague in scoring last season at12.9 points per game; Hawkinswas the league assist leader at4.8 per game; and the 6-foot-9Fowlerwassecond in the leaguein shooting percentage and re-bounding.

Seniors Jack Anton andAdam Gigax at 6-foot-8 and 6-foot-6will provide added lengthon the Crusader frontcourt. An-

ton has committed to Elon Col-lege. Junior Fowler has a varie-ty of offers including somefrom the SEC and Big 10.

“He’s really playing well,”Kremer said of Fowler. “He’s ahigh character kid. I thinkschools are waiting to see howhis athleticism develops. Bigguys really develop late.”

Kremer also has some “newnames” to varsity that shouldcontribute in former junior var-sity point guard Kevin Kerley.From the football team, GusRagland andNoah Able will seeminutes once they hang up thepads for the year.

Moeller recently tested theirskills against a number of goodteams in Canton. They also willparticipate in a holiday tourna-ment once again by attendingtheBeachBallClassic inMyrtleBeach, S.C., Dec. 27-31.

“If we can get by the bestteam out of Toronto, then welikely play this teamout of Flor-ida that has a Duke commit,”Kremer said. “Theyhaveanoth-er kid who won the ‘dunk of theyear’ this summer and it wentviralonESPN. I thinkwe’ll com-pete. We have the kind of sizethat we can playwith anybody.”

Even outside of the presea-

son and holiday trips, Moeller’sschedule is frightening.

“It’s the best schedule we’veever had,” Kremer said. “We’vegot schools like Centerville andTaft and Aiken.We think it’s go-ing to help us through the tour-nament.”

The Crusaders open at Cha-minade-Julienne Nov. 30. Thehome opener features Coving-ton Catholic Dec. 6.

Cincinnati HillsChristian Academy

The Eagles went 12-11 lastseason, including an 8-5 recordin theMiamiValley ConferenceGrayDivision, onegamebehind9-4 league champion CincinnatiCountry Day.

Head coach Andy Keimergraduated three all-league hon-orees from that team, but re-turns four players who startedat least part time. Among themare senior fourth-year pointguard Evan Glaser and seniorwingMatt Overstreet.

Also back are junior wingJohnDrosos and 6-foot-8 sopho-morePrinceMichael Sammons,who started at the end of theseason.

Senior forward Chris Zhengadds experience to the mix

while junior guard Ryan Smithreturns after missing last sea-son with an injury.

A solid sophomore classcould be the difference for theteam. Among them are guardsErikKohlan andBlake Souther-land, 6-foot-3 wing Sean Eslickand 6-foot-2 post player NickHarker.

“We like our depth,” Keimersaid. “It’s the best numberswe’ve ever had. The competi-tion in practice has been great,seeingwho is going to step up tostart or get minutes. They’reworking for it.

“There are some questionswith the sophomores. Are theyready to step up to the varsityand contribute orwill they needa year?

“We want to push it up thefloor, so we want that depth. Ifyou’re really good in transitionyou can score a lot of points, butwe also want to be a team thatcan make six, seven, eightpasses in a possession and bepatient if we have to.”

CHCA opens the season withthree straight homegames, fac-ing Cincinnati College PrepNov. 30, New Miami Dec. 3 andSt. Bernard Dec. 6.

A publication of

Nearly 24 years ago, Amer-ican leadership helped bringdown the Berlin Wall withoutfiring a shot. Now, our servicemembers and veterans are upagainst a new wall, a wall ofbureaucracy.

This wall complicates near-ly every facet of life as theytransition from active dutyservice to veteran status. ThisVeterans Day, we must renewour commitment to those whohave served us. Our task be-gins by ensuring that theirmedical records, which docu-ment years or decades of ser-vice, seamlessly follow themfrom uniformed to veteranstatus.

The House of Representa-tives is taking action to pushboth the Departments of De-fense and Veterans Affairs torealize this goal. Our troopsface numerous challengesafter they serve: transitioningto civilian life, finding a ca-reer or continuing their edu-

cation, toname just afew. Our vet-erans shouldnot have toserve as couri-ers betweenthe DoD andVA too. It’s anadditional andunnecessaryburden.

Our twobiggest departments are stillnot fully capable of digitallycommunicating in the 21stcentury. Early in his presi-dency, President Obamacharged these two depart-ments to “build a seamlesssystem of integration with asingle goal: when a member ofthe Armed Forced separatesfrom the military, he or shewill no longer have to walkpaperwork from a DoD dutystation to a local VA healthcenter; their electronic rec-ords will transition along with

them and remain with themforever.”

This vision has devolvedinto a series of missed mile-stones, shifting priorities andballooning budgets. TheHouse Veterans’ Affairs Com-mittee learned earlier thisyear that these failures haveled President Obama and bothdepartments to abandon theoriginal goal of one system,and instead plan continuedreliance on separate systemsintegrated together to connectelectronic health records.

I served as an Army com-bat surgeon in Iraq and stillserve as a Reservist. I knowthat my fellow military mem-bers, when they retire, shouldnot have to continue to wagewar at home against bureau-cracies and paperwork. Andyet, a doctor treating veteranscannot seamlessly access themedical history of their pa-tient because that history ishoused in a separate Defense

Department system. VA doc-tors report that initial stepsare improving this digitalsharing, while still on sep-arate systems.

The House of Representa-tives is working to tacklethese issues through the bi-partisan H.R. 1960. Importantsections call for basic interop-erability capabilities within ayear, meaning that doctors onboth sides will be able toreadily view medical historyfiles.

By 2016, we are demandingfull system integration be-tween the two departments.These are essential steps to-wards realizing a system thatseamlessly communicatesmedical history files betweenthe departments, withoutforcing the burden on to theshoulders of our transitioningveterans. Ultimately, I believeone system will best serve ourtroops and veterans as theyseek care, and full integration

is steering the departments inthe right direction. Fully in-tegrating these electric healthrecords isn’t just about help-ing transitioning veterans, it’salso essential to reducing ourveterans’ disability backlog.

We know that fully devel-oped disability claims, thosewith complete medical historyfiles, take half the amount oftime to complete compared toclaims filed with incompleteor missing data. It’s discou-raging for our troops, ourveterans, and our doctors toface a wall of bureaucracythat hinders care. They de-serve a lasting solution thathonors their legacy and ser-vice.

I lived inWyoming45plusyears and due to health is-sues I had to leave that goodtown seven years ago.

I was very surprised thatVickiZwisslerdidn't finish inthe top three for WyomingCity Council. Sometimes itisn't who goes in, but the peo-ple who are left out thathurts.

Nov. 20 questionDo you think President Oba-

mawillbeabletokeephisprom-ise that Americans will be ableto keep canceled health insur-ance policies for a year as com-panies and consumers adjust tothe new demands of the healthcare law. Why or why not?

“If you go back in history,Social Security was estab-lished for when those reachedretirement there would besomemoney there for you, notan amount to support you but,to have something. This Oba-ma Care is the politicians an-swer to the problem with SS,thegovernmentwilldecideforyou if you need heart surgeryor just let you die off. Therewas money in SS and the poli-ticians saw all this money andstarted all kinds of welfareprograms with this money,now that SS is in trouble this ishow your elected officials an-swer to the problem.

“Thehardfactof thematteris if you die because you didn’thave the heart surgery thenthe government doesn’t haveto pay out SS to you or yourfamily! Think about it, doesWashington, D.C. really careabout your retirement years?Theanswer isno!Dotheyhavethe same health insurance youare going to get?No! Theywillhave a separate insurance

than you and I! Think aboutthiswhenyougo tovote! Ifyoudon’t vote then shut up!”

J.M.B.

“Can we all stop and take abreath right now? There hasbeen so much bashing of thepresident that I don’t want tohear it any more.

“I recognize that the newsystem is not working. Manytimes in my life I have experi-enced a computer programneeding time to actually work.

“I also recognize that manypeople are waiting to enroll inhealth care and thatmanypeo-

ple cannot afford to lose thehealth care they currently en-joy. I do believe this situationwill improve, the president’spromise will be kept and wewill all getwhatwe need. Cool-er heads must prevail.”

E.E.C.

Nov. 13 questionSeveral major retailers and

malls will be open for holidayshopping throughout Thanks-giving Day. Is this a good ideaand do you plan to plan to takeadvantage of the extendedhours? Why or why not?

“There is no way I will doany shopping onThanksgivingDay. I think people should beoff and have the time to spendwith their families. The own-ers and execs of the big chainstoreswon’tbeworking.Beingclosed a few days during theyear won’t bankrupt them. Ifnobodywould shop onThanks-giving the storeswould get themessage. But with the bigsales going on I’m sure thestores will be packed. I’m inmy 60s and would like to seethings the way they used tobe.”

CH@TROOM

NEXT QUESTIONThe Ohio House has passed abill which would redefineself-defense and circumstanceswhere the use of force trumpsthe duty to retreat to publicsettings, such as stores andstreets. Under current law,residents need not retreatbefore using force if they arelawfully in their homes, vehi-cles or the vehicle of an imme-diate family member. Is thisgood legislation? Why or whynot?

Every week we ask readers a questionthey can reply to via e-mail. Send youranswers [email protected] Chatroom in the subject line.

The Fisher decision in Tex-as has caused me to do addi-tional thinking about educa-tion.

Some people may take whatI am going to say as preju-diced or against social pro-gress. That is certainly not myintention. There are seriouswrongs in our education sys-tem. The use of affirmativeaction to level college enroll-ments is a serious mistake.Inner city schools are failingtheir students by not givingthem standards equal to saidbetter schools in suburbia.When a future student is se-lected because he or she wasin the top 10 percent of one ofthose failing high schools, thatstudent may be at a seriousdisadvantage when comparedto the other students.

I have great admiration forthose few who recognize thisfailure. It was not of theirmaking and they must acceptthe challenge to perform toacceptable standards. Selfesteem and hard work alongwith encouragement from thefaculty will work wonders.

When I was teaching at asmall rural community col-lege, many of my studentswere from low income homesand were juniors and seniorsat the local high school. Theywere given the opportunity togo to college by the schoolboard and encouraged bytheir parents to take this chal-lenge.

As a volunteer, my rewardwas to see them succeed. Itwas with great pleasure that Isaw them go on to bachelor’sand higher degrees. Writing aletter of recommendation forthem was not a task, but anaffirmation that educationwas a cooperation between thestudent, their family and ateacher who prized their fu-ture. It was there that I be-came aware that it is not whatgoes into the college thatcounts, but what comes out ofit.

For everyproblem therehas to be asolution. Hereis mine. Everyapplicant tocollege shouldbe given arandom appli-cation numberthat has noidentifiers.

The only qualifier should be inthe case of an all male orfemale institution. A stan-dardized test should be usedfor qualification.

Certain allowances may bemade for children of alumnior donors. But, those allow-ances should require advancenotice to all applicants. Accep-tances would then be madebased on the scores on theadmission test. If dormitoryspace is limited, then adjust-ments would be made forproper sleeping arrange-ments. Then, a final admissionadjustment could be made byselecting the next best appli-cants by sex.

The advantage to this typeof system is that it wouldcause public education in theinner city to actually teach thestudents. Each system wouldbe graded by the percentageof students that applied andwere accepted into college.Those schools would have astrong incentive to see thatthe parents are involved in theeducation of their children.

My final qualification isthat each college would haveto make public the percentageof students that graduate andthe number of graduates thatfound employment withinfour months of graduation. Itis time to make college worththe increasing price.

Wyoming has recognizedseven homeowners fortheir efforts in land-

scaping, gardening and urbanforestry issuing awardsthrough the annual Beautifica-tion Awards.

The awards, determined bycommittee members EthanPagliaro, Bobbi Strangfeld,Gail Bason, Thayne Bedenkop,Corrie Carswell, Tracy Dean,Maureen Geiger, Alex Teass,Tim Timberman, ToddWales,Lynn Crider andMike Lippert,were presented during CityCouncil’s Oct. 21meeting.

» 1045 Burns Ave. Thishome, owned by Joseph andAnneWhaley, was renovatedby contractor Jeff Meyungwhen it was owned by Tim andCassie Cottrill. The updatedhome features two spaciousbeds and baths, with a mosaic-tiled kitchen and French doorsoff the master suite.

» 272 Compton Road. As abed and breakfast, this houseis also home to Anne Black,who renovated this propertywith new electric, plumbing,trim work and painting. Twins’House Bed and Breakfast in-cludes solar panels and geo-thermal HVAC and was deco-rated by Peppercorn Interiors,with landscaping design byWyoming resident Saira Shaha-ni.

» 217 Crescent Ave. Home-owner Anita Rudy rebuilt herfront porch, widened the stepsand matched new railing spin-dles to the originals. Windowboxes were installed to thesecond story, and with thesummer annuals, she addedtropical indoor plants on theporch, where she placed wick-er chairs to add to the countrycottage effect. The improve-ments are enhanced by solarand electric lighting.

» 904 Oak Ave. This housewas chosen for its star magno-lia, nurtured by homeownerCynthia Davis. She learnedgardening tips from her neigh-bor, who also has a star magno-lia in her yard, and now, thetree at 904 Oak has surpassedher mentor’s, 10 years later.

» 551Tohatchi Drive. BobandWynema Hess were recog-nized for the landscaping atthe home they’ve owned fordecades. Noted were the brightshrubs, perennials and colorfulannuals of the tidy yard, whichwas transformed from an over-grown collection of plants.

» 38 West Mills Ave. Thisproperty, owned by DonnaWales, was recognized for thebald cypress tree in the yard.The deciduous conifer hasneedle-shaped leaves similarto most evergreens, though thebald cypress drops its leaveseach fall, producing new onesin the spring. The tree’s pyra-mid shape lends itself to neatshedding of leaves, makingcleanup easier, and that’s whyher father, ThomasMacFar-land planted the tree in 1977.The tree, as a memory of Don-na’s father, was noted for itsframing of the house and pro-portional size for the property.

» 422 Worthington Ave. Thisyard was recognized for itslandscaping by owner MaryBeth Fischer. It features win-dow boxes, wildflowers andaccessories brought back fromtravels to other towns.

NOVEMBER 27, 2013 • TRI-COUNTY PRESS • B3LIFE

I got some unexpectedexercise today. The windwas blowing so hard

when Ihung upthe clothesthat itliterallyblewmostof them offthe lineright afterI put theclothespinson the lastof the

socks. Now I didn’t mindchasing the dish towelsacross the field, but itwas a little embarrassingto see my “unmention-ables” flying freely to-ward the road. My girl-friend called me laterand said she was drivingby when all this hap-pened. “Made mechuckle,” she said. Iguess it’s what we call acloud with a silver lining.

Giovanna’sgluten-freemeatballs andspaghetti

You know her as Jo-anne Trimpe, author oftwo Holy Chow cook-books, the first of whichis “Holy Chow” and the

second, new one is “HolyChow Gluten Free.” Youmay recognize her as atelevision personalityand personal chef toArchbishop DennisSchnurr. I know her asGiovanna, and we havebecome friends and col-leagues. Giovanna decid-ed to write another cook-book with gluten-freerecipes because Arch-bishop Schnurr is glutenintolerant, yet enjoysgood food.

“I was nervous atfirst. I didn’t knowmuchabout gluten intoleranceso I knew I needed tolearn how to cook glutenfree, but with all theflavor of my originalrecipes,” she said. Well,Giovanna has nailed it.Her book has really good,doable gluten-free reci-pes, from appetizers likecrab cakes that startyour meal with flair todinners that are enter-tainment worthy. Hereggplant Parmesan isunbelievably good.There’s a special sectionfrom friends and family.I contributed recipes forthe dessert section. Ev-ery recipe has a photoalong with a Bible quoterelating to it, so you are

feeding both body andsoul.

I chose Giovanna’smeatball and spaghettirecipe since that’s a uni-versal favorite and a nicechange from all the tur-key we eat this time ofyear. Check out her web-site http://holychow-book.com/ for informa-tion to purchase the book.Also available at Joseph-Beth Booksellers inRookwood and sells for$16.95.

Preparemeatballs

11⁄2 pounds of ground chuck1 teaspoon kosher salt1⁄2 teaspoon ground pepper1 egg white11⁄2 tablespoons choppedfresh parsley or 1teaspoon dry

1⁄2 cup soymilk or any typelactose-free milk

11⁄2 cups bread crumbs

Now, this is where it isimportant to use gluten-free bread crumbs. Youcan buy frozen gluten-free bread and, usingyour food processor,make 11⁄2 cups.

Work the meatballmixture with your hands.Keep hands wet whilerolling meat into abouttwo-inch meatballs. Placemeatballs on a large plate

while you finish. Thisshould yield about 18-20meatballs.

Prepare simple toma-to sauce

Put 1⁄4 cup extra virginolive oil in large saucepan on medium heat. Stirin 1⁄2 cup chopped onionsand cook for 3 minutes.Add 3 cloves mincedgarlic and cook for only 2or 3 minutes and be care-ful not to burn garlic.Add 2 teaspoons Koshersalt and 1 teaspoon pep-per and simmer for an-other 2 or 3 minutes.Then add two 32 oz. canswhole tomatoes, crushedwith your hands (or freshtomatoes that are equalto the same amount).

Cook for 5 minutes. Add 1teaspoon dry basil orabout 8-10 fresh basilleaves. Now add two 15oz. cans tomato sauceand two 6 oz. cans tomatopaste. Rinse out cans toget the most of the sauce.Measure out two cups ofthe juice/sauce water andadd that to sauce. Sim-mer on low for 20 to 30minutes for marinarasauce only, or 45 minutesto an hour if you areadding uncooked meat-balls.

Instant vanilla saucefor bread pudding,cake, etc.

OK, trust me on this

one. Instead of makingvanilla sauce with eggs,etc. from scratch, justmelt good quality vanil-la ice cream slowlyuntil it’s slightly warm.What you’ll wind upwith is a not-too-thicksauce that is deliciouson bread pudding ordrizzled into hot choco-late.
