Put A Little Library In Your Life:
Readers’ Advisory, Part 2
Dear Reader-Over the past week,
you’ve probably forgotten what readers’
advisory is, but Stephanie Anderson, whose
job has the enviable
title of Head of Readers’ Advisory at Darien
Public Library in Connecticut, had a method
for making the concept
stick: after the keynote
speech, she challenged
everyone in the audience to participate in
readers’ advisory. That
day. We would have to
find someone to talk
about books with, and
in the conversation
between readers the
vulnerable would be
laid out bare--interests,
tastes and themes of
the moment--in the
possible hope of finding a new connection
with an author, title, or
genre. I dreaded this,
to be honest. I looked
at this room of solid
readers and felt like a
comic with one joke at
a stand-up convention;
like a witch with one
spell at a packed coven
meeting--and what’s
worse, my one spell
had already been cast,
perfected, and even the
love of it had passed
mention. How would
I relate to a bona fide
reader? And more to
the point: what was I
going to recommend?
In between ses-
sions, and stewing with
expectations, I went to
the library computer
catalog and looked up
the last book I’d loved, a
book club pick by Adult
Services Librarian Lynette Olson, and hoped
that whomever I spoke
to hadn’t read it yet.
During the lunch
break, Molly, from
the Lawrence Public
Library, chatted with
me about the seminar
she had helped lead on
social media and the
library. Molly began as
a part-time teen assistant and now worked
full-time with various
aspects of the library.
She wore a red lanyard
around her neck, des-
ignating her a readers’
advisory mentor (there
were a team of them).
She read across genres
from graphic novels to
historical fiction, and a
blur of others in between. “Have you done
a readers’ advisory yet?”
she asked. I decided to
take off the kid gloves,
and tell her what I loved
to read.
To be continued. . . .

Coffey County Library Burlington Branch Offers
Free Classes Through a National Grant
The Coffey County Library Burlington Branch
has been invited to offer
a series of five classes
focusing on topics that
help inform and protect
consumers as they make
life-changing financial
decisions. Monica Mader, Interim Library Director, has developed the
classes in partnership
with the staff of Housing
and Credit Counseling,
Inc. (HCCI). Mader said,
“The library is very glad
to receive a small grant
that has let us develop
these free classes to assist people in managing
their finances and begin
planning for the future.”
Mader said “the classes
are designed to appeal
to people of all ages.”
A schedule is posted at
www.cclibraryks.org. No
registration is required,
but it is requested to help
plan the refreshments. The first class is
Thursday, May 7 from
6–7 p.m. and will focus
on how to get a free
credit report and dispute
errors that may be in a
credit report.
A class
scheduled
Thursday,
May 14
from 6–7
p.m., will
give options for
repaying student loans
that can include consolidation, deferment and
cancellation for extenuating circumstances. A
special class about how
reverse mortgages work
for people
age 62 and
older will be
presented
Thursday,
May 21
from 2–4
p.m. and
will give
examples of questions
consumers should ask
lenders when pursu-
ing a reverse mortgage
loan. On the same date,
HCCI will also present
a Homebuyer Workshop
from 5:30-8 p.m., that
will discuss credit-readiness, affordability, qualifying for a loan, and Fair
Housing Law, as well
as addressing the most
common concerns most
first-time homebuyers
experience. The final
class on Thursday, June
4 from 6-7 p.m., will
discuss how to develop
a spending and savings
plan that meets your
needs, how to plan for
non-monthly expenses,
and the importance of
paying yourself first each
month. All classes will
feature speakers from
HCCI who are Certified
Housing and Consumer
Credit Counselors and
Educators.

Walk Kansas Halfway
Walk Kansas has
reached the half-way
point, we just finished
the 4th week. I am so
proud of our community! This year we have
105 teams in our county.
Actual total number of
participants is 613. That
is great! I am so happy
that so many people
have made the 8 week
commitment to take
some small steps to a
healthier lifestyle.
Why is a healthy lifestyle important? Many
Kansans are at risk for
chronic disease because
of physical activity and
nutrition choices- 37
% are overweight, and
an additional 27% are
obese (Lyon County’s
rate is 29.7 percent rated
as obese). Only 19% of
Kansans eat enough fruit
and vegetables, and only
48% of our population
in Kansas reaches the
minimum goal for physical activity (150 minutes
per week). We also were
ranked as county #46
out of 105 in the recent
health outcomes ranking
from the Robert Wood
Johnson Foundation. We
in Lyon County have a
ways to go to improve
our health. We all need
to take small steps to
become a healthier place
to live, work and play.
We need to make
half our plate fruits and
vegetables at every meal.
We should all try and eat
a rainbow of colors every
day. Nature created
fruits and vegetables in
a rainbow of colors. By
eating a variety of colors
you can get the best allaround health benefits,
including phytochemicals –natural compounds
that protect against
chronic disease. In their
natural form, fruits and
vegetables are low in calories and sodium, have
very little fat, and fruits
offer natural sweetness.
These foods are also
good sources of dietary
fiber. Fruits and vegetables provide a variety
of tastes and textures,
and consuming different
colors actually increases
your protection against
disease. Think about the
variety of colors represented in your daily diet.
It’s not enough to sip orange juice each morning,
have a salad with mostly
iceberg lettuce for lunch,
and eat a baked potato
and green beans for dinner.
In most cases, the
deeper the fruit or vegetable’s color, the more
powerful its diseaseprotection capabilities.
To eat a rainbow of
colors, start by adding
strawberries, blueberries or bananas to cereal;
or have an omelet with
spinach, mushrooms and
tomatoes. Build a salad
on leafy greens such as
Romaine lettuce and
spinach, and add at least
three other vegetables.
Include a variety of
veggies on your sandwich, and eat carrots or
an orange as a snack.
For dinner, fix a baked
sweet potato and broccoli. The key is to mix up
your food choices and to
try new vegetables.
Whole-grain foods are
also essential for good
health. They provide
energy, help promote
digestive health and reduce the risk of developing a number of diseases.
Whole-grain foods are
more satisfying. They
have great texture and
taste, provide a feeling of
fullness, and have staying power: You won’t feel
hungry as quickly. How
do you know if you are
choosing a whole-grain
food? Read the food label – specifically the ingredient list – to be sure.
The first item listed is
the ingredient highest in
quantity by weight. Look
for the word “whole” in
front of a grain, such
as “whole wheat.” If the
list starts with “wheat
flour,” it is not a whole
grain. Common whole
grains include brown
rice, oatmeal, popcorn,
wild rice and whole
wheat. Expand your
whole-grain choices with
quinoa, whole-grain
barley, whole-grain corn
or cornmeal, whole rye
and others. Quinoa (pronounced keen-wa), is a
grain that comes from
the Andes Mountains of
South America. Quinoa’s
origins are truly ancient.
It was one of the three
staple foods, along with
corn and potatoes, of
the Inca civilization.
Quinoa was known then,
and still is known, with
respect, as the mother
grain. Common serving sizes of whole-grain
foods include: a slice
of whole-grain bread, 2
cups of popcorn, ½ cup
of cooked cereal, 1 ounce
of ready-to-eat cereal, ½
cup cooked brown rice
or whole-grain pasta, a
small muffin or a pancake. You don’t need to
choose only whole-grain
foods. The dietary recommendation is to make
half your grain foods
whole-grain choices. Do
this when baking by substituting half the recipe’s
flour with whole-grain
flour. Have brown rice
and whole grain pasta
when possible.
I hope you are enjoying walking, the weather
has been pretty good

Foundations Combine For Philanthropy Education
Continuing education credits and a special
course for non-profit
agencies will be offered
at no cost next month
by the Consortium for
Continuing Education,
a newly formed partnership among the Emporia
Community Foundation,
the Emporia State University Foundation, and
the Flint Hills Technical
College Foundation.
“I think that it makes
great sense for us to partner on this,” said Shirley
Antes, ECF executive
director. “While each of
the foundations involved
in this partnership has its
own role and mission, as
partners in this consortium we are all about
providing the tools and
information individuals,
families, businesses and
organizations need to
make informed decisions
regarding their philanthropic decisions now
and in the future.”
The three foundations
are sharing the cost of the
event through cash or inkind services with partial
funding being provided
through a technical assistance grant from the
Kansas Health Foundation, Antes said. The
presentations are open to
anyone.
“This partnership
makes it possible for
communities to benefit,
grow and prosper with
the increased number of
professionals who fully
understand the role of
educational and community-based philanthropy,”
said DenaSue Potestio,
president/CEO of the
Emporia State Foundation and vice president
for university advancement. “What better way
to carry out our shared
missions than to partner
with one another to raise
up the next generation of
philanthropists?”
Mike Crouch, executive director of advancement for FHTC, said the
college’s Foundation is
proud to be a partner in
providing educational
opportunities for professionals in this area.
“Flint Hills Technical
College plays an integral
role in economic development in our community, and we are excited
to share that message,”
Crouch said.
Two sessions will be
offered at the inaugural
event, which will begin at
7:30 a.m. May 7 at FHTC,
with a breakfast catered
by the tech college chef
and culinary arts students. The cost is $10 for
the meal, which will be
followed by introductions
and opening remarks at
8 a.m.
Attorneys and certified
public accountants will
receive continuing education credits for completing the class. Financial
advisors and insurance
agents also can benefit
from the sessions.
Anyone who wants
to attend either or both
sessions needs to register
in advance. Registrations may be submitted
by registering online at
www.flinthillsphilanthropy.org. For more
information, please call
(620) 341-5400 or e-mail
flinthillsphilanthropy@
emporia.edu.
The first presentation,
“Creative Charitable
Planning with Non-Cash
Assets,” will be from 8:20
to 10 a.m.
“The first presentation
will focus on non-cash
types of gifts that people
can give, like land or
commodities, those types
of things,” Antes said.
“While it’s primarily for
the professional advisors, it could certainly
be a valuable workshop
for interested parties that
are considering non-cash
gifts to any one of the
foundations.”
The second session,
“Powerful Planned Giving with a Shoe-String
Staff and a Shoe-String
Budget,” will be from
10:30 a.m. to noon. It is
intended for representatives of area non-profit
organizations.
Both classes will be
taught by Bryan Clontz
of Charitable Solutions
LLC of Jacksonville,
Florida. Clontz described
the professional-advisor
portion of the programs
as a case study approach
to help clients who want
to donate assets that
may include traditional
non-cash gifts such as
real estate, or unique
items such as boats, race
horses, art collections or
beach houses.
Clontz said the session
for non-profit organizations will be “highly
interactive,” with participants learning how to
create a robust planned
giving program with no
money and only two to
three hours per month.
Clontz will discuss ideas
for deeper prospecting
and give examples of
“making the ask,” as well
as guiding participants
to work on component
parts of a planned giving
program. Allspice: All-purpose but not all spices
By Daniel Neman
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Allspice is a victim of
its own name.
You can't blame someone for seeing the word
"allspice" and thinking
that it is a blend of many
spices _ or even all spices.
It's a natural assumption.
But allspice is just one
spice, a dried berry from
a broadleaf evergreen
tree that grows primarily
on the islands of the Caribbean Sea and Central
America. It got its English name, according to a
book published in 1736,
because it tastes like "all
the other spices."
Usually when people
today try to describe the
taste, they limit the mixture of spices it resembles
to cinnamon, cloves and
nutmeg. Sometimes they
also add juniper, ginger
and black pepper.
What this means to
the home cook is that
allspice can be counted
on to add an extra kick
to practically everything.
Whatever tastes good
with cinnamon, cloves or
nutmeg tastes even better
(or at least just as good)
with allspice. And it is
great in the sort of things
you don't necessarily
associate with cloves or
cinnamon too, such as
soups and stews and
vegetables.
The next time you
make a chicken soup _
or beef soup, or tomato _
add a little allspice. Four
or five berries will do for
a gallon of soup, or one
berry for every quart
of liquid. Or if you are
making a pot roast, stew
or other braised dish,
try three to five allspice
berries for a lovely hint of
the flavor of the islands.

Throughout the county there are probably places where isolated burials took place long ago. For instance,
on Road F north of highway 56 where the parallel makes the road jog east, there is a single grave where a
dragoon from the Civil War (or before) is buried. This grave was almost lost in history until someone discovered it and fenced it off. Another burial location is on land owned by Lloyd Brown’s sister. Here, perched
on the very edge of a creek leading into the Neosho River west of Americus are three large gravestones bearing the names of people whose names are found nowhere else in Lyon County history. Perhaps they were
simply passers-through who died enroute to somewhere else.

Withington’s graveyard has no markers at all, but, thanks to Don Schiesser and his son who discovered it,
this graveyard appears to circle around the hill north of Old Allen on the east side of 142 Mile Creek. Mostly
covered by soil these days, the graves are topped by large, flat stones. So many people traveling west along
the Santa Fe Trail were exposed to a variety of diseases caused by the hardship of travel: dysentery, typhoid,
cholera. They may have stopped at Withington’s while their loved one succumbed to his or her illness. He
provided the final resting place, but no records have ever been found to identify who was buried there.

ALLSPICE
I needn't have worried.
It eventually unclumped
(a fair amount of stirring was involved) and
became a recognizable
muffin batter. They baked
with no problem.
And the taste? Superb.
It tasted just like carrot
cake, only one in which
the carrots had been re-
From PAGE 11
And don't forget to use
it in desserts, too. Allspice is like cardamom; it
is just as happy in sweet
dishes as it is in savory.
Cookies, cakes, oatmeal
and even applesauce
all perk up a bit when
sprinkled with ground
allspice.
I decided to use it in
three distinctly different
ways: as part of a flavorful rub on roast chicken,
in a spicy marinade
inspired (and perhaps
used) by the indigenous
people of the Caribbean
islands and in muffins
made, surprisingly, with
sweet potatoes.
Sweet potatoes? Yes,
allspice also pairs well
with all of your most
popular orange vegetables _ carrots, squash and
sweet potatoes.
I made the chicken
first, and I'm glad I did
because as it was baking
a marvelous aroma of
allspice permeated the
kitchen. Cumin and paprika are also major parts
of this dish, but the spice
that you smell is allspice.
And it is sublime.
The dish is wonderfully easy to make, too.
You simply combine the
spices (including garlic
and onion powders and
salt and pepper) with just
enough olive oil to make
a wet paste. This you rub
all over the chicken _
it's fun to play with your
food _ and then roast it
in the oven.
You don't even have
to wait. With most rubs,
you want to let the spices
sit on the meat for a
while to let the flavors
permeate the food. But
this dish cooks so slowly
that the meat has the
chance to absorb the flavor from the spices while
it cooks. It only roasts
at 375 degrees, rather
than the 425 degrees or
so usually used to cook
chicken, and the chicken
winds up being surprisingly tender and moist,
redolent of all the good
things smeared on it.
The marinade I made
is more old school,
meaning that the meat
has to soak up the flavor
before it is cooked. This
is especially true because
I used it to make London
broil and, as with other
tough cuts of meat, London broil needs a good,
long marination to make
it tender.
The great thing about
this marinade is that it
could be used for any
kind of meat or fish. But
try it with a London broil
and let the meat marinate
overnight. It is astonishingly good. Your family
or guests will go crazy for
it _ as long as they like
their food spicy.
A version of the recipe
apparently originally
comes from the Arawaks,
an indigenous people of
the Caribbean islands
and South America. The
recipe has it all: It is a
little sweet (brown sugar,
molasses), a little salty
(soy sauce), a little spicy
(cinnamon, nutmeg and
ginger along with the
allspice), a little aromatic
(onions, shallots, garlic),
a little fruity (orange
juice, red wine) and
perhaps more than a little
hot (scotch bonnet chile
peppers).
I couldn't find scotch
bonnets locally, so I used
habaneros instead. They
are closely related and
pack the same amount
of fierce heat, but scotch
bonnets are said to taste
a bit fruitier. Because of
the wallop of fire that
these peppers contain, I
removed the seeds before
chopping them. But the
meat did not turn out
to be as spicy as I feared
because the heat was
limited by the marinade.
If you like it extra hot, try
keeping the seeds in the
sauce.
Ready for dessert, I
also made sweet-potato
muffins. I was a little
uncertain about these as
I was making them because the shredded sweet
potato clumped together,
making the batter a bit
weird.

sweet potatoes.
You know that carrot
cake flavor. It tastes like
cinnamon. And cloves.
And maybe just a hint of
nutmeg.

A New Way to Look at
Landscaping Your Yard
by
Travis Carmichael,
Lyon County Extension
Everywhere you go
you can see and hear that
spring is finally here. For
many people, including
myself, spring has been
a long time coming. If
you are like me, you have
been itching to go outside
to start working in the
lawn and planting flowers to spruce up your
outdoor spaces. This can
be a daunting task for
many, so where do you
start? The best thing to do
is pick just one area and
focus only on that to start.
Many of us have a patio
or deck area that is used
for entertaining in our
backyards and this could
be the first area to focus
on since this is the first
thing many of your guests
will see. For the purpose
of this article and for the
sake of space and time we
will just discuss the patio
and/or deck area.
So we have identified that the deck and/
or patio area needs to be
spruced up. Now think
of this area as one of the
rooms in your house.
These outdoor living areas
can be an extension of
our indoor living areas.
Once you think of the
deck and/or patio area as
a room of your house, it
will make the decorating,
also known as landscaping, easier to handle. Any
plants that are planted in
flower beds help form an
outline and transform the
area into a room by creating the illusion of walls.
Now I am not saying
put in some of the tallest
plants you can find, you
will want some shorter
plants included in the
landscape so you do not
obstruct any views you
may like to keep. Use container planters as your accent pieces (i.e., pictures,
wall art, furniture pieces),
like you would have in
your house. Use bright
colors to add interest to
these accent pieces. Since
the patio and/or deck is
your entertaining area,
make sure you include the
different items you want
or need to entertain your
guests.
Over the years as we
have now turned our
outdoor spaces into an
extension of our inside
living spaces, new terms
have been created in to
the landscape world. We
are no longer considered
landscapers, but landscape designers. Plants
now create more of the
different textures than

The idea of painting a room can sometimes be intimidating, but with
these 5 easy steps, you’ll see how simple it is to get great results.
The correct sequence
of steps is the key to
giving any room a quick
and refreshing paint
makeover. Tip: Start
with the ceiling first and
then paint the walls.
Step 1 — Clean Ceiling and Walls
Remove dust, dirt,
and grease spots (which
can ruin a smooth finish) with water, a little
mild dishwashing detergent, and a cellulose
sponge. Rinse ceiling
and walls with clean wa-
ter to remove the soap
residue.
Step 2 — Cut in
Around Edges
Beginning at the
corner of the room, use
a two-inch or 2.5-inch
trim brush to “cut in,”
applying a three-inch
strip of coating along
the perimeter where
the wall and the ceiling
meet.
Cut in a section at a
time, alternating between cutting in and
painting the ceiling to
maintain a wet edge
and prevent a visible
line between the cut-in
area and the rest of the
ceiling.
Step 3 — Rolling the
Ceiling
Before you begin
painting the ceiling, remove excess paint on the
roller by slowly rolling it
back and forth over the
ridges of the paint tray.
Start painting near
the corner of the room,
blending the coating
into the ceiling line
painted previously. Paint
across the width of the
ceiling, rather than
the length, and make
sure to roll in a motion
across your body, rather
than along your body,
to avoid straining your
neck and back.
Step 4 — Painting the
Walls
Once your ceiling is
dry, return to the spot
where you began painting. Use a trim brush to
carefully cut in along the
wall-ceiling line. Extend
out two to three inches
from windows, doors,
and moldings. Once
you’ve cut in around an
entire wall area, use a
roller to fill in the field.
For efficiency, start in
the corner of a wall and
roll on a three-by-threefoot W pattern, then
fill it in without lifting
the roller. Continue in
sections until you’re
finished. Paint one wall
at a time.
Step 5 — Painting the
Trim
Once the walls are
completely dry, place
painter’s blue tape where
the trim meets the wall.
Paint the moldings,
baseboard and the door
and window frames with
a two-inch angled brush.
When painting your
trim, paint the tops of
the doors and windows
first and work your way
down so that you can
remove any runs as you
go. Paint your baseboards last.

Dear Helaine and Joe:
My beautiful 93-yearold auntie gave me this
bowl that was her mother's. It is marked on the
bottom with either an "N"
or a "Z" in a circle. Can
you provide some information on this piece? It is
in perfect condition and
has one pattern on the
inside and another on the
outside.
Thank you,
B. F. J., Naples, Fla.

Dear B. J. F.,
Both of us hate looking
up carnival glass patterns
because it can be a long
and tedious task.
After spending about
an hour looking through
books on the subject, a
friend walked up, saw the
photo and said, "Oh, that
pattern is wishbone with
a basketweave exterior."
We could have clobbered him for being such
a smarty pants _ but since
wishbone is almost the
last pattern in the books,
we were happy for the
heads-up.
Starting about 1905,
carnival glass was made
by a number of companies, and it continues to
be produced right up to
the present day. Carnival glass is an iridescent
pressed glass _ i.e. not
hand-blown _ that comes
in a variety of colors such
as marigold, blue, amethyst, green, white, red,
smoke and many others.
Carnival glass started
out being cheap _ so
cheap that it was given
away as prizes and premiums at such venues as
movie theaters and yes,
Page 19
carnivals. We believe
there is so much of this
type of glass out there
that it must have been
sold in outlets such as the
ubiquitous 5 and Dime
as well.
Today, carnival glass
is not quite as collectible as it once was, but
rare pieces can still bring
prices at auction in the
low thousands. Value
generally depends on
three factors _ rarity of
the pattern, rarity of the
form (plates and whimsy

SWEET-POTATO
MUFFINS
Yield: 15 servings
2 eggs
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons packed brown
sugar
1 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
extract
2 cups all-purpose
flour
2 teaspoons baking
powder
1 teaspoon ground
cinnamon
1 teaspoon freshly
grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon ground
allspice
1 teaspoon salt
4 cups peeled, shredded sweet potatoes
(about 2 large)
1 cup raisins
1 cup chopped walnuts
1. Preheat oven to 350
degrees. Grease muf-
fin tins to hold about 15
muffins.
2. Crack eggs into a
small bowl and beat well.
Add brown sugar, oil
and vanilla, and whisk
together until smooth.
3. In a large bowl, mix
together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon,
nutmeg, allspice, salt
and grated sweet potato.
Make a well in the center
and pour in the egg mixture. Stir the egg mixture,
gradually incorporating
it into the sweet potato
mixture. Stir in the raisins and walnuts.
4. Spoon the batter
into the muffin tins; filling them to the rim will
result in large caps. Bake
25 to 30 minutes, or until
a toothpick inserted into
the middle comes out
clean. Use a paring knife
around the edges of each
muffin, if needed, to help
pop them out of the tin.
Best when served immediately.

Arawak Marinade
Yield: About 2 cups
6 green onions,
chopped
3 tablespoons minced
shallots
Tuesday, April 21, 2015
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground
ginger
1 tablespoon ground
allspice
1 teaspoon ground
black pepper
1 teaspoon ground
cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground
nutmeg
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon brown
sugar
1 cup fresh orange
juice
1 cup cider vinegar
1 cup red wine
1 cup soy sauce
1 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon molasses
2 scotch bonnet chile
peppers, see note
Note: Scotch bonnet
peppers are closely related to habaneros, which
you can substitute if you
cannot find the scotch
bonnet. Both are among
the hottest peppers in the
world, so be very careful.
1. In a medium bowl,
combine the green
onions, shallots, garlic,
ginger, allspice, ground
black pepper, cinnamon,
nutmeg, salt, brown
sugar, orange juice, vinegar, wine, soy sauce, oil
and molasses.
2. Chop the peppers
and add to the mixture.
If you want it a little less
hot, remove the seeds
before chopping. Wash
your hands thoroughly,
then wash the knife and
the cutting board.
3. Mix well, cover, and
allow to sit for 1 hour.
Stir again before using
to marinate fish or meat.
Marinate fish at least 30
minutes, chicken or pork
at least 1 to 2 hours, or
beef (such as for London
broil) at least 4 to 6 hours
or overnight. Discard
marinade after use.
