If you are traveling east on Interstate 90 and get feeling a little hungry, the town of Luverne has a growing number of dining options to meet all tastes.
One of those places, just off the interstate, is The Bluestem, located in what many folks remember as the Magnolia Steakhouse.
With an updated, casual and comfortable atmosphere, The Bluestem prides itself in delicious food and exceptional customer service.
Skyler Hoiland is the Chef/Owner, and he doesnt hesitate in admitting there is nothing else that he would rather be doing.
Food is a real passion of mine, he says, and I love creating food that will take people back to their roots. We all remember something our moms or grandmas used to make. Thats the feeling we want to create here.
Hoiland says that in developing the look and feel of The Bluestem, he wanted to create an environment where everyone feels welcome and that they feel they can just come as they are.
Our family has roots that run deep in the Luverne area, he says. We are locals, so when customers come to The Bluestem, they can know they are among friends.
The local aspect is important to Hoiland, as he tries to keep their business local whenever possible, finding local ingredients for food, and local art and services for the restaurant. In the same way, he encourages people in the area to dine local instead of heading out of town.
The restaurant takes its name from a native prairie grass prominent at Blue Mound State Park, which is located just north of Luverne. Big Bluestem is called the king of prairie grasses because it sometimes grows to over six feet tall. Just as that grass
stands out among the rest, Hoilands goal is to make every diners experience one that stands out.
The Bluestem staff takes food favorites and adds their own unique twist, like the Bluestem Nachos that pair wonton chips with Italian sausage and queso blanco or the Pretzel & Minnesota Beer Cheese appetizer that features Grainbelt beer and a Nordeast cheese sauce.
Entrees range from hand cut, aged Angus beef, pan seared walleye and roasted chicken to house specialties like Grilled Sausage Fettuccine, Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta or Prairie Heights Bison Pot Pie made from locally raised bison stewed with vegetables and topped with puff pastry.
The Bluestem also offers a wide variety of sandwiches, burgers, salads with homemade dressings and homemade soups. Diners over age 60 or under 10 have special menu selections designed with their appetites in mind.
Be sure to save room for dessert, because The Bluestem has designed its own signature varieties of sweet favorites like bread pudding, carrot cake, chocolate torte and a mixed berry crumble that is made to order.
Looking for a place for a special event? The Bluestem has several party rooms available. They also host their own special events like holiday dinners or beer dinners where they pair hand-crafted foods with hand-crafted beers like local varieties from Take 16 Brewery.
A quote on the restaurants website seems to capture Hoilands passion and excitement for food. It originates from world-renown opera tenor, Luciano Pavarotti, who said, One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating.

The Bluestem
A Taste of Luverne
-
etc. for her | March 2015 11
There is a unique charm to Main Street in Luverne, Minnesota, a community that celebrates its past while progressing into the future. Many buildings are more than a century old and constructed with the Sioux Quartzite found throughout Rock County. One of those buildings is home to the newly-opened Sterlings Caf and Grille.
Owner Brian Sterling wasnt really thinking about Luverne when he first pondered opening his own restaurant.
He credits the idea to a couple he visited with at a Sioux Falls restaurant and bar where he was working at the time. Sterling told them he was thinking of opening a place on the east side of Sioux Falls.
They asked me if I had ever thought about Luverne, recalls Sterling, and they told me they had a beautiful building they thought would make a wonderful restaurant. So, I drove over to Luverne to look at it.
What Sterling found was a historic building with huge bay windows that had been restored, but an interior that had previously housed several different businessesand needed a lot of work.
It took substantial time, effort and resources, but eventually everything started falling into place. Now, Sterling says, he is proud that hes been able to create such a unique dining atmosphere.
The main level offers ample seating and a great view of Main Street through those bay windows. An upper level that seats 40 is available for daily dining, but is also the perfect space to reserve for special events.
Our restaurant concept was a farm-to-plate approach, says
Sterling, using ingredients youd get from local farmers, to create good food that is also good for you.
The breakfast menu includes classic breakfast options, gourmet breakfast sandwiches, omelets, yogurt bar and jumbo cinnamon rolls. If you need a good cup of coffee to get going in the morning, a cup of the gourmet coffee at Sterlings is only 25 cents during breakfast until 10 AM.
Options for lunch and dinner range from burgers and sandwiches, including a bison burger and a Cubano Panini, to steaks and pastas, their special lemon glazed salmon, Cajun fried catfish and shrimp tacos.
Sterlings offers a Sunday brunch from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Every week you can find favorites like eggs and bacon and fresh-off-the-grill French Toast. Then, they add in other specialties like salmon, broccoli penne alfredo and quiche. They also feature a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables at the salad bar.
The lounge area at Sterlings is a great place to unwind and relax with friends. There are plenty of large screen TVs to keep up-to-date on your favorite sports, and the full-service bar includes several beers on tap, including local varieties from Take 16 Brewery.
Sterling says he is grateful to everyone in Luverne and Rock County for the support. He is thrilled with the response to the restaurant, and the fact that he already has to recommend that diners make reservations for dinner, particularly for weekend dinners and Sunday brunch.
I couldnt have asked for a better place to open a restaurant, says Sterling. I am so happy to be part of the Luverne community.

South Dakota Soybean has announced a kitchen and grocery giveaway as part of the organizations Hungry for Truth initiative.
The kitchen has a tradition of being the place where family and
friends gather to cook meals together and share in fellowship
and conversation. It is the place where people gather to make
connections to each other and to their food., which is why the
kitchen and dinner table serve as the Hungry for Truth symbols of
open dialogue about food and farming.
To encourage these conversations, Hungry for Truth has
partnered with Karls Appliances to give away a grand prize of
$25,000 toward new cabinets, counters and premium KitchenAid
appliances, including a bottom-freezer refrigerator, a convection
range, an over-the-range microwave and a built-in dishwasher.
In addition, South Dakota Soybean will give away $250 worth of
groceries each month in 2015, courtesy of Hy-Vee and Family Thrift.
South Dakota Soybean launched Hungry for Truth in early
January to give people across the state opportunities to share
their questions about food with farmers and to learn how farmers
raise their food and work to keep it safe. The initiative includes
the Hungry for Truth website, social media and special events
throughout the year.
To enter the giveaway sweepstakes, visit www.hungryfortruthsd.
com. Watch a quick video about food and farming, and then enter
for your chance to win. While on the website, visitors are urged to
explore the hottest topics in food and farming from food safety to
biotechnology. Entries are limited to one per person, per day.
We want to thank our sponsors for their involvement in this
initiative, said Marc Reiner, farmer from Tripp and chairman of the
South Dakota Soybean Research and Promotion Council. Through
their partnership, Karls Appliances and Hy-Vee have shown their
commitment to open conversations about food production and
safety.
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. The Hungry for Truth Grocery and Kitchen Giveaway starts 1/1/15 at 12:00:00 a.m. CT and ends
12/13/15 at 11:59:59 p.m. CT. There will be 12 separate drawing periods during the Promotion. Open only to eligible, legal residents

The South Dakota sky has a different look out in the country. You can see for miles. The Rollag family enjoys the view all around their home in the country northwest of Sioux Falls.
Jeremy and Brooke Rollag built the home in 2013 on land that
had been in Brookes family. Their particular spot is where Brookes mom grew up, and her grandfather owns land around them.
While they were excited about the idea of living on this land and building their home and family there together, Brooke

mentioned that it was bittersweet, because they first had to take down the original early-1900s house.
It was a wonderful old house, says Brooke, but when we started adding up what would need to be done to restore it,
building became the more practical option.But, the Rollags were able to take many things from the old
house to incorporate into the new one. Brooke describes the style as urban country.

We wanted it to feel warm and welcoming, she says. There is a lot of wood. I think wood is really timeless.
While both Jeremy and Brooke love the look of a full log home, that wasnt in the young couples price range. So, they were able to bring in wood from Baker Timber Products in Rapid City to create the atmosphere they wanted. Tall logs form columns on the front porch, and smaller logs were used to form the railing around the staircase to the lower level. The ceiling is covered in pine boards, and the effects of the Black Hills Pine Beetles on the trees can be seen in the color variances of the boards.
Throughout the upper level, the Rollags used wood laminate for the flooring.
It looks just like wood and its easy to take care of, which is great with the boys, says Brooke, referring to Knox and older brother Sutton, 8. Plus, it was in our budget. When you are building, you really have to make a lot of choices about where you want to spend your money.
Thats one thing Brooke has a little experience with, as a mortgage originator with Home Federal Bank in Dell Rapids. She says making decisions about financing is equally as important as choosing your builder in a construction project.
The bank was such a help, she says, and it had nothing to do with being an employee. They offer great products and service, including financing up to 90% on construction projects. We couldnt have built our home without having such a great financial partner.
Lantern-style light sconces frame the large living room window which is big enough, and low enough, for 18-month-old Knox to look out and see the familys dog playing in the yard. The furnishings are comfortable and inviting, and they include many pieces the couple refurbished or finds from auctions and
rummage sales.On one wall of the living room is a large portrait of the two
boys right after Knox was born. It is the perfect picture of rural South Dakota country boys with Sutton in a cowboy hat sitting down holding his baby brother.
The couple created a display piece out of old pallets on the opposite wall. They stained the wood and used a larger pallet as a frame for a family picture, set outdoors, and a second half-pallet has a series of phrases stenciled down the boards, including, Be Kind, Speak Truth, Love Others, Show Grace, Work Hard and Love Christ.
Brooke says she saw that idea, and several others for the house, on Pinterest, and is thankful for her husband and other family members who helped to make all those ideas a reality.
In the kitchen, tall red chairs stand at the angled island. They didnt start out as tall red chairs, however. What the Rollags originally found at an auction were short, oak-finished chairs. Jeremys grandfather took them to his wood shop and extended the legs, and then Brooke painted them red.
Above one of the kitchen cabinets sits a framed picture saved from the original house. Its a print of the well-known picture Grace, showing an elderly man with head bowed in a mealtime prayer.
A door in the corner opens to a spacious pantry, which is one of Brookes favorite parts of the kitchen. This was our builders idea, says Brooke, referring to Jim Clark Construction in Colman. I am so glad he thought of this. It provides great storage and saves on cupboard space. Jim did an incredible job giving suggestions throughout the building process. You can tell he has years and years of experience in this trade. We couldnt be more happy with our builder.

A hallway leads from the kitchen to the familys bedrooms. On the walls of the hallway hang four multi-paned window frames saved from the old house, now also painted red.
The brothers share a room, with Sutton in a captains bed with storage drawers, and Knoxs crib on the opposite wall. The dcor is all cowboy, with a western-print quilt on Suttons bed made by members of Jeremys family and colorful cowboy art on the walls.
I am obsessed with quilts, laughs Brooke, they are all made with love by Jeremys aunts & grandmathey are simply amazing. We have several handmade quilts, and I just love them. It is a real gift they have. Maybe someday Ill pick up on this family tradition.
Across the hall from the boys is a guest room where Brookes grandpa stays when he comes back after wintering in Arizona. Her

grandma passed away, so Brooke says they are glad that Grandpa can come home to the land where he lived and be with them.
The boys bathroom doubles as the laundry room, and having a main floor laundry was another must-have on their design list while building. The turquoise walls and wood cabinets and wood-framed mirror match the homes urban country style.
In the master bedroom, the headboard of the bed takes center
stage. The Rollags took the old oak pocket doors from the dining room of the old house and paired them together to create the headboard. They havent changed a thing about them, leaving the beauty of the original finish and tarnished brass hardware.
Another unique feature of the master bedroom is a door leading out to the front porch.
I really wanted access to the outside from here, says

Brooke. When the boys are outside, I have quick access to them from here.
Another suggestion from their builder was designing the bedroom windows to be tall, which lets in plenty of South Dakota sunshine and gives them that unhampered view out into the yard.
Above the dual-sink vanity in the master bath hangs a light fixture made of several hanging mason jars. Brooke admits she saw the idea on Pinterest and made a first attempt at making it herself, but decided it was probably better to just go ahead and purchase it from Pottery Barn.
The lower level of the house is unfinished for the moment, so a farm-style swinging gate that Jeremy built keeps young Knox from venturing downward. Instead, he can busy himself at his mini-kitchen that stands next to the island.
The Rollags vision was to create a comfortable home that would be for a lifetime.
In coming home to this land, we wanted to create a forever place, says Brooke. We put a lot of thought into a design that would be big enough as we had a family, but not too big that we cant grow old here.
Talking about the door from their bedroom to the porch, Brooke was thinking about their future here, as their boys grow up.
Maybe someday, well put a porch swing out there, and spend many mornings watching the sun come up curled into a blanket enjoying Gods Grace.

We all know about St. Patricks Day, celebrated every year with a parade downtown, meals of corned beef and cabbage, and way too much green beer. Legend says Ol Patty drove the snakes out of Ireland and we honor that noble (if historically inaccurate) task each year on March 17 or a Saturday around that date to allow for more people to drink more beer. This year the city will rally and become Irish for a day on Saturday, March 14. Thats about all we need to say about Saint Patty.
But there is another Saint whose day is celebrated in March; St. Joseph. His day of feast falls on March 19 and is celebrated by the Italians instead of the Irish. The legend of Joseph (or San
Giuseppe, as hes known in Italian) begins as the spouse of the Virgin Mary. But it was in the Middle Ages that the people of Sicily prayed to him to end a severe drought. Their prayers were answered and they thanked St. Joe with a huge feast. Hundreds of years later, Sicilians still build elaborate alters and wear red clothing to celebrate his day.
Not being Catholic or Italian American, I really didnt know about St. Joseph until a few years ago. My beloved and I were in New Orleans for a visit one March and in addition to the Irish-American parade for St. Patricks Day, we found ourselves in the middle of an even bigger, more elaborate parade for St. Joseph. As Kara said I
-

thought he was just a name on the bottle of aspirin! But there is so much more to St. Joseph than a pain reliever, although you may want to keep a bottle handy for the morning after.
St. Josephs Day is celebrated in many American cities with large populations of Italian-Americans, but New Orleans has earned its reputation as a city that is always looking for a reason to party. The port of New Orleans was where many immigrants from Sicily landed during the 19th and 20th centuries, and they have found a way to keep their traditions alive and thriving in their new home city. There, the Italian-American Marching Club puts on a series of parties and parades followed by feasts and parties and more parties in the name of St. Josephs Day.
In New Orleans, the Feast of St. Joseph has flourished into a city-wide event, and the tradition of building alters is still active and the altars welcome anyone wishing to pay homage. Every altar is filled with food, including bread, soups and sweets like zeppole and cookies. The fava bean was the crop that saved Sicily from starvation, so the altars often include dishes with the fava as the star. Candles are lit, prayers are prayed, and food is shared with friends, family and the less fortunate. Then they have a parade through the French Quarter and the real parties begin. Beads are tossed and much wine is consumed. And since its New Orleans, plenty of beer and hurricanes are served up and down Bourbon Street.
Unfortunately, the St. Josephs Day celebration has yet to take off in Sioux Falls. But seriously, wouldnt you rather celebrate with pasta and wine instead of green beer and cabbage? I sure would. So this year, when the St. Pattys Day celebrations wind down and youve had enough beer, change your green shirt for a red one, start a big pot of Maccu di San Giuseppe (a soup of dried fava beans) and open a bottle of red wine in honor of St. Joseph. Or maybe we could start our own parade, but instead of going down Phillips Avenue well go up Louise Avenue from Spezia to Carinos. Lets start a new tradition right here in South Dakota! Whos with me?
Do yourself a favor, eat something good today.
When hes not looking for a reason to celebrate, Jim runs ADwrks, an advertising agency in downtown Sioux Falls.
For a great introduction to the New Orleans tradition of St. Josephs day celebrations, I recommend reading Sara Roahens Gumbo Tales: Finding My Place at the New Orleans Table, a sweet series of stories about the Wisconsin natives years living, cooking and eating in New Orleans. .

Irish vs. Italianby RiccaRdo TaRabelsi
I remember getting picked on in second grade by Joe Flaherty, Jimmy Fitzpatrick, and Breen Mahoney, no lie. Luckily, I had kids like Frankie Valentino and Tony Scarfo on my side. It was all about pride: you see theres always been this feud, this rivalry between the Irish and the Italians in Boston that dates back to ever since I can remember. If youve never been to Boston, heres a quick geographic tip: If you want good wine, go north; if you want good beer, head south. The North End of Boston is lined with cobblestone streets, narrow alleys, and Italian family-owned businesses like restaurants, cafs, barbershops, and bakeries. South Boston, or Southie (refer to the movie Good Will Hunting for a better picture of this neighborhood) is heaven for pub-seekers and bar-hoppers. Again, most are owned by Irish families because these families in Boston have been around forever, and the rivalry is pervasive. So what do you do when youre an Italian on St. Patricks Day?
St. Patricks Day always reminds me of this old guy I used to work with in Boston his name was Gino Porzio, no lie. Gino was rough around the edges and grew up in the old neighborhood:
tough as nails, proud to be an Italian, and very outspoken. Without fail, every year on St. Patricks Day, he would never wear anything that even remotely resembled the color green. And again, without fail, an unsuspecting victim wearing a Kiss me, Im Irish button on her green sweater would innocently ask, Gino, why arent you wearing green today? Gino would smile a little smile, tilt his head sweetly, and then unleash his rant about the Irish getting a holiday while the Italians never get any recognition for all of their accomplishments. And Ill never forget this: he would always end it with, Ill wear green on St. Patricks Day, the day everybody wears green, white, and red on Columbus Day! Luckily, everyone would laugh at these tirades because of how ridiculous he sounded, but he did teach me one thing: we should all be proud of where we come from.
Theres this story about a proud Texan who was traveling through Italy and made a stop in Rome. He hired a private tour guide to drive him around Rome and point out some of the landmarks. Driving by the Vatican, the proud tour guide told the Texan, The Sistine Chapel took 10 years to build. The Texan responded, Thats really
-
etc. for her | March 2015 53
nice, but it only took us 3 years to build the Astrodome. The guide, slightly annoyed, kept driving to the next famous destination, the Trevi Fountain. La Fontana di Trevi: It took almost 30 years to build this masterpiece. The Texan retorted, Thats really big, but it only took us 4 years to erect a 71-story skyscraper. At this point, the Italian tour guide was getting aggravated with the Texans lack of respect for Romes historic sites. But as the Italian drove by the Coliseum, the Texan piped up, Look at that! Thats one of the most awesome structures Ive ever seen! How long did it take yall to build that? The Italian casually replied, What? That? It wasnt there yesterday.
There is no one more proud than the Irish, on March 17th, who include the whole world in their celebration. This March, I
will celebrate the pride I have of my Roman lineage through my maternal grandfather, Umberto. Some of the greatest architecture, art, history, and, of course, wine and cuisine live on in Italys capital, Rome, which also is the capital of the region of Latium, south of Tuscany. Memorable meals in the region of Latium include antipasti like frittata (Italian omelette) with potatoes and onions or pasta like spaghetti alla carbonara, a dish whose sauce is made with egg yolks and cream, and is topped with pancetta, a fancy word for Italian bacon. Another favorite is Penne Allarrabbiata: pasta tubes with a hot sauce of tomatoes, garlic, and chili pepper. Arrabbiata literally means angry, and they say that when the Italian farmers go home for dinner, the hotter the Arrabbiata sauce, the angrier the wives are with their husbands.

OUR MISSION IS TO ENRICH THE LIVES OF FAMILIES AND INDIVIDUALS THROUGH GOLF, FITNESS AND HEALTHY LIFESTYLES.
White wines dominate Latiums production, whose 23 D.O.C.s are led by the versatile Frascati and Marino from the Castelli Romani and the mythical Est! Est!! Est!!! from Montefiascone to the north. The Est! Est!! Est!!! di Montefiascone is one of the few wines of ancient origin whose date of creation is known: the year 1000. Up until that time, the wine produced from grapes grown on the slopes rising from the shores of Lake Bolsena to the town of Montefiascone was appreciated only locally and praised by travelers. However, in the year 1000, the Holy Roman Emperor Henry V marched on Rome at the head of a powerful army to settle some controversy with Pope Pascal II. Bishop Johan Defuk was one of the followers of the expedition, but he apparently was more interested in the sightseeing of the excursion than the politics. He instructed his cupbearer, Martin, to go ahead of him on the route, keeping always one day in advance, and to select the inns where good wine was to be had by marking the word Est! (meaning: it is) next to the door. When he reached Montefiascone, Martin found that the usual Est! chalked next to the door of this one particular inn would not do it justice because the wine in this town was truly excellent. Since he had not arranged any other signal with his master, he decided to communicate his appreciation of the wine by writing Est! Est!! Est!!! on the door. The reputation of the wine was made on the day Bishop Defuk tasted the Est! Est!! Est!!! di Montefiascone. Captivated by the wines smoothness, the Bishop stayed in the town for three days. After completing his imperial mission, he returned to Montefiascone and remained there until his death. Buried in the towns church of San Flaviano, the Bishop has been honored for centuries by the pouring of a barrel of wine over his tombstone every year.
The saying, When in Rome, do as the Romans do, is one tha
