MIAMI TOWNSHIP — Afterlast year’s heavy snows, offi-cials in Clermont County’s Mi-ami Township are taking stepsto ensure that township roadsare cleared this winter.

On Oct. 14, the Miami Town-ship Board of Trustees adopted

legislation on anemergency basisto allow town-ship officials todeclare a snowemergency. Al-though local gov-ernments inClermont Coun-

ty have the authority underOhio law to declare snow emer-gencies,most relyon thecountyto do so.

“In the past, the (ClermontCounty) sheriff has always de-clared snow emergencies fortheentirecounty,”MiamiTown-

ship Service Director MikeMantel said. “But the county isso large that the weather condi-tions in the northern part ver-sus the southern part could bedrastically different, so how doyou declare a countywide snowemergency?”

By giving Miami Townshipthe authority to declare a snowemergency, officialshope itwillgive themanother tool toensurethat the township’s 440 streetscovering 153 miles are clearedfasterthiswinter.Inthepast,ve-

Summerathome inLovelandturned into a unique reunion fortwo Loveland Primary Schoolsecond-grade teachers.

Lauren Brown never expect-ed to stay when she came hometo Loveland for the summer af-ter her final year studying edu-cation at the University of Ala-bama. It just happened therewas an opening for a second-grade teacher at Loveland Pri-mary. She applied for the joband met with a pleasant sur-prise at her second interview.The principal, Kevin Fancher,had explained there would be ateamofteachersconductingtheinterviewwith them.

“When I walked in, Mrs.Schulok was sitting there,” saidBrown,whowasa student in thefirst-gradeclassofLisaSchulokin1997. “I just feltmuchmoreatease. I felt that was a sign I wasmeant to be back in Loveland.”

For Brown, a 2009 LovelandHigh School graduate, seeingher first-grade teacher in thatinterviewfelt likea sign. Seeinga former student also touchedher former teacher. Schulok

recognized Brown’s name on abinder in Fancher’s office. Shelooked at it and immediatelyasked the principal “Do I knowthis name?” He confirmed itwas thesameLaurenBrownshetaught in first-grade.

“I said would it be appropri-

ate if I gave her a hug,” Schulokrecalled asking Fancher beforethe interview with her formerstudent. “He said yes.When shecame in, I gave her a hug. Shewas very impressive. She did agreat job.”

Imagine walking into an in-

terview for your first job out ofcollegeandbeinggreetedwithahug by one of the interviewers.

“It definitely mademe feel alot better,” Brown said. “I al-ready felt a littlemore comfort-able justbeingat theschool. It isa really nice place.”

The two are now teachingsecond-grade together. They’rein the second year of a three-year mentor program withSchulok as mentor to MissBrown.

“That just means I’m therefor her whenever she has anyquestions,” Schulok said. “Weplan together. We pretty muchtalk everyday about what we’redoing. We talk about our kids.We talk about their growth. Wemake sure she has everythingshe needs.”

Did Schulok ever think a for-mer studentwould teachnext toher at the front of the class?

“No, no, no I taught for 21years, 20 in Loveland, and no Inever really thought of that,”Schulok said. “Here she is.”

They tell their class thatBrownwasinherclass.Thekidslook at them like they reallymust be old. Schulok was in herthird year teaching when an“energetic and friendly”Brownwas a first-grader in her class-room.

“She’s the same person,”Schulok said. “Just a little tall-er.”

A man riding his bikeacross the country toraise awareness for a raredisorder made a stop anda connection in Loveland.

John Nightingale, ofChattanooga, Tenn., andhis wife, Susan, startedPedal for Pennies, a non-profit raising money forShriners Hospitals forChildren and raisingawareness for InfantileIdiopathic Scoliosis.

“Our daughter is a pa-tient at the hospital inGreenville, South Caroli-na. Only one in three kidsthat goes through thetreatment process thatshe is going through rightnowhave their spines cor-rected. The rest of thechildren end with spinesurgery and growingrods,” John Nightingale

said from the patio of Ju-lian’s Deli & Spirits along-side the Little Miami Sce-nic Trail.

Nightingale was 16days into his 45-day biketrip visiting seven Shrin-ers hospitals. He was onhis way from the one inCincinnati to the one inErie, Pennsylvania.

“We have had severalfundraisers and peoplecan go online and make adonation. It was a longprocess to fall under the501(c)3 status for theShriner’s Hospitals. NowI’m really just out here onmyownraising themoneyand then we give it tothem. Every dollar, everypenny,” he said.

Within the next threeyears, he plans to hit all 20Shriner’s hospitals in thecontinental United Statesin three trips. His currentjourney is the first cover-

ing 1,885 miles.“I’m averaging about

58 miles a day. On a goodday, I can do that in aboutfour hours. On a bad dayor in the Blue RidgeMountains that is 10hours,” Nightingale said.

Nightingale is makingthe journey alone and hehas been sleeping mostlyat campgrounds in a tenthe carries with him on hisbike.

“I have stayed at a lotof fire stations, which isgreat. They are greatguys. Their goal in life isto help other people andthey helpme too, which isgood,” he said.

After talking withNightingale about cyclingand his journey, Julian’sDeli co-owner RobertZins got fundraiser infor-mation from him.

“Maybe we could goanddo something. Iwould

like to be able to do some-thing for him,” Zins said,after offering to pack upextra food for Nightin-gale.

Nightingale said heand his wife decided to

name the nonprofit Pedalfor Pennies because ev-ery cent makes a differ-ence.

“Every penny counts,every penny saves a lifeand that is reallywhat it is

about. When penniesmake a difference be-tween a child’s recoveryand maybe not doing sowell that is thedifference.That is what it is about,”he said.

Nightingale said de-spite the hardships of hisjourney, including toughtrails through the moun-tains and being nearly at-tacked by dogs, he is trav-eling the distance andraising money as a thankyou to the Shriners.

“They will treat anykid,without regard if theywill be able to pay the billback. It is amazing to methat there are people outthere that do that. So whynot me?” he said.

Biking philanthropist stops in LovelandByMarika Leemlee1@communitypress.com

MARIKA LEE/ THE COMMUNITY PRESS

Tennessee resident John Nightingale is biking to 20 ShrinersHospitals for Children to raise money for the hospitals andawareness for a rare disorder. He stopped at Julian's Deli inLoveland and co-owner Robert Zins got information from himto hold a fundraiser for his nonprofit.

One way the depart-ment will be making upthe rest of the funds is byentering into the FireChiefs’ Alliance of Cler-mont CountyMutual AidAgreement.

Huber said in thisagreement, compared tothe one the departmenthas been in for severalyears, department canbill other communitiesfor use of services.

“We are now able tobill other communitiesand in turn they are ableto bill us. This keeps us

from the issue of subsi-dizing other communi-ties. It is to ensure ourneighborhoods are notusing and abusing ourservices to subsidizetheir services,” Hubersaid.

Huber said the de-partment agreed to asimilar agreement forWarren County earlierthis year and the agree-ment for HamiltonCounty is being rewrit-ten.

“I’m glad this billinghas been inserted intothe mutual aide agree-ment, however it is un-fortunate that it has to bethat way. I know that it isbecause other communi-

ties have not be able toraise their own taxes aswe have here. We sym-pathize with them, but to(Huber’s) point we can’tsubsidize them,” ViceMayor Mark Fitzgeraldsaid.

Loveland passed a1.75 mill fire and EMSlevy with 70 percent insupport in the May elec-tion.

The resolutions forthe new trucks and themutual aid agreementpassed by a vote of 6-0.Councilwoman PamGross was not at themeeting.

hicles have parked on bothsides of township streetsduring heavy snowfalls,making plowing impossi-ble, especially on cul desacs.

The township also is or-dering 200 signs prohibit-ing parking during snowemergencies. Mantel willstart posting them in town-ship neighborhoods next

month, and he expects tobe finished installing themin early December. Theprohibition against park-ing on a township streetduring a snow emergencywon’t take effect until asign is posted.

When Trustee MaryMakley Wolff asked howthe townshipwould handlevehicle owners who don’thave anyplace to parktheir car other than thestreet, Mantel and MiamiTownship Law DirectorJoe Braun said a common

sense approach would beused in enforcement aswell as in deciding whereto post no parking duringsnow emergency signs.

Next month, MiamiTownship will start run-ning public service an-nouncements on TimeWarner Cable notifiyingresidents of the changesand recommending thatthey sign up for twitter ifthey haven’t done so to getupdates from the servicedepartment when snowfalls. Information also will

bepostedonthetownship’swebsite and facebookpage. Residents on twittercan follow the service de-

partment@miamitwpserv.Despite recent salt

shortages, Mantel said heshould have 2,700 tons ofsalt in the township’s saltdome when winter begins.That’s more than the 2,500

tons the township uses inan average winter to treatroads. However, duringlast year’s bad winter, thetownship used 3,700 tons.

Mantel said he has an-other 3,000 tons of salt onorder that should arrivebetween late Decemberand late January, but heisn’t counting that until itarrives.

“Until that salt’s in ourdome, we’re going to bevery efficient with our useof salt,” he said.

Brown grew up inLovelandandmetherbestfriend and current room-mate Katie Linz in Schu-lok’s first-grade class-room. Now they’re bothteaching in the Lovelandschools.

“I always just remem-ber how caring and com-passionate she was,”Brown said sharing hermemory of Schulok then.She recalled how herteacher made a difficulttime easier for her whenshe had foot surgery andhad to wear a cast back

then. The mother-likecare Schulok gave herthen left a lasting impres-sion.

“I will always remem-ber that. I can still pictureher right there with mewhile I was wobblingaround.”

Brown feels like she’sgone back in time to acomfortable place whereSchulok is still looking outfor her. It was like a signfor her, a sign for whichshe is very thankful.

“It’s obvious she has abankofknowledge I couldnever have right now,”Brown said. “She’s anamazing teacher. Watch-ingherwith theotherkidsis inspiringtome.Herout-

look on teaching is amaz-ing tome.”

“I always wanted to bea teacher,” Schulok said.“Hearinghersaythat, thiskind of confirms this iswhat Iwassupposed todo,and continue to do.”

It’s not just learningthe things you can’t pickup in a college classroom,but the way Schulokshows such love and com-passion for her kids. Thatcompassionandlove isex-actlywhatBrownhopestogive the kids in her class-room. Schulok is no lessthankful, and no lessproud to be working withher former student.

“I am so proud,” Schu-lok said.

Football» Loveland scoredon its first

four possessions and sopho-more running back Luke Wad-dell scored three rushing touch-downs in the gameas theTigerscruised past Eastern CincinnatiConference rival Walnut Hills,45-0, Oct. 18at Walnut Hills.

It was the fifth win in sixgames for the defending Divi-sion II state champions sinceopening the season with back-to-back losses. Waddell had 208yards rushing and three touch-downs. 5-3 Loveland will hostTurpin Oct. 24.

The Tigers have been play-ing for their playoff lives moreor less since Week 3 and eachwin is important these days.

“You have to go out and takecare of the things you have con-

trol over,” Loveland coach FredCranford said. “Wehaveno con-trol over the Harbin (computerpoints) and what other peopleare going to do in front of us. Soas long aswe go out oneweek ata time, I’m pleased with that.”

The Tigers, ranked No. 6 inthe Enquirer Division II areacoaches’ poll, improved to 5-3overall and 4-1 in the ECC to re-main in a second-place tie withGlen Este and in the hunt forthat Division II, Region 6 play-off berth. Loveland’s only losssince the second gamewas a 31-13 Week 5 loss at Kings, thefirst-place team in the ECC.

“As a head coach, I’ve sathome at 8-2 and 7-3, so I knowwhat it’s like to be on that flipside,” Cranford said. “That’swhy it’s a privilege to coach inOhio because it’s anhonor to getin.You’ve earned it. SoTurpin isnext (Friday at Loveland). If wetake care of these next couple

weeks, we’ll hope for the best.That’s allwewant is an opportu-nity toplayagain inDecember.”

SHORT HOPS

By Scott Springersspringer@communitypress.com

LOVELAND — As coach MikeDunlap read his texts from anassistant coachscoutingWalnutHills and Milford Oct. 9, he hadhopes of an Eastern CincinnatiConference title.

Unfortunately (for Love-land)Milfordwasunable toholda short lead against Walnut andthe Eagles of Victory Parkwayprevailed in the final minute ofthe game. Walnut Hills finishedwith a league mark of 6-0-1 andthe Tigers were 6-1.

“I thought overall 6-1 wasgood for our squad this year,”Dunlapsaid. “I thoughtourboysstepped up. I didn’t think com-ing into the season we would beas quality as we ended up. Theguys really put in a lot of effortthis year.”

Though the Tigers had a su-perlative ECC record, theiroverall regular season tallywas8-7-1. On the other hand, thenon-conference schedule wasloadedwithGreaterMiamiCon-

ference and Greater CatholicLeague talent.

“Weplayed the top five in theGMC and Moeller and St. X,”Dunlap said. “Our schedulewaspretty demanding.”

Like several coaches in thearea, Dunlap takes on all com-ers to toughen his squad up forthe postseason run. It also pre-pares him for the tournament

drawwhen selecting a path thatmay extend Loveland’s season..

“It’s allowed us to have tapeonevery teamthatwe thinkwillbe deep in the tournament,”Dunlap said. “That gives me agood idea going into the tourna-ment seedsonwhichway Iwantto go.”

During the season, the Ti-gers beat Indian Hill of the Cin-cinnati Hills League and LakotaEast of the GMC. They tiedMa-son and had narrow losses toFairfield, Lakota West, Syca-more and Lebanon (of theSouthwest Conference).

Senior Ryan Melink had avery successful season by lead-ing the ECC in scoring. Melinkhad 13 goals and four assists.

“Ryan’s been a very valuableplayer for us, whether scoringgoals or drawing double and tri-ple teams which allows us tofind other guys open,” Dunlapsaid. “He was an absolute valu-able asset this year.”

KENWOOD—They arrive inColumbus in the fall just as thebuzzardsreturneachspring toHinckley, Ohio.

Well, almost.By finishing second to St.

Xavier at the Division I dis-trict tournament at Weather-waxOct. 9, coachRickBohne’sMoeller High School golfersqualified for the state tourna-ment for the 12th time in 13years.

There was no second placethis time.

After 28 years of coaching,Bohnewasable toridehomeinthe van with a championshiptrophy as the Crusaders fin-ished a gray day on OhioState’s Scarlet Course with asunny smile. Over the week-end of Oct. 17-18, Moeller wasnine strokes better than Co-lumbus St. Charles and UpperArlington.

A year ago, the Crusadersfinished fifth overall. Four ofMoeller’s starting 2013quintetreturned in seniors Ben Sat-tler, Nick Gruber and QuinnSullivan and junior Jake Fox.

Junior Michael O’Brienjoined the march to Columbusthis season.

Ondayone,Oct.17,Moellerblitzed out early and held an11-stroke lead. Sattler led thewaywitha76,Grubercardeda78, Sullivan and O’Brien 79and Jake Fox checked in at 80.

Day two saw the Crusaderstie for the third-best tally, butfinish on top overall. Sattlershot 78, Fox 79, Sullivan 83,Gruber 84 and O’Brien 85 inblustery conditions. Not badconsidering the first hole

startedpar, triplebogey, triplebogey, par, double bogey.

“I guess if you do it longenough, (you win),” Bohnesaid of Moeller’s first golf ti-tle. “It’s their accomplish-ment, not mine at all. It wasfun to see their smiles.”

Now, when he walks intothe gym off MontgomeryRoad he will see “State Cham-pion Golf 2014” in the raftersalongwith the29other state ti-tles on display.

Last season, Moeller cameout tightondayoneof the tour-nament. On the second day,they had the second lowestscore and Bohne said it be-came a springboard for 2014.

Going into weekend,Bohne’s bangers and puttershad a little “chip” on theirshoulder anyway. Sure, theyqualified for state, but it wasslightly behind GCL-South ri-val St. Xavier.

“They lost theplayoff in thedistrict and they didn’t feelgood,” Bohne said. “That’ssomething I like about them.”

He also likes not having torely on one player. All ofMoeller’s starters have shotmemorable rounds.

Thosewho don’t shoot at allwere on the course supportingthe blue and gold. Some teamsonlybringfive;Moellerbringsa gallery. Several Crusadergolfers joined the group whohad adapted themantra, “Whynot us?” all season.

The title match was thegrand finale for senior tri-cap-tains Quinn Sullivan, Ben Sat-tler and Nick Gruber.

“Quinn (Sullivan) is goingto finish in the top three orfour in career average forMoeller golfers,” Bohne said.

THANKS TO OHSAA

INDIAN HILL — Cincin-nati CountryDay’s volley-ball team wrapped up its2014 season with second-round loss in the DivisionIV sectional tournamentOct. 13. The Indians fin-ished the season with a 6-11record, but returnnear-ly intact next year.

CCD graduates justone senior, albeit an im-portant cog in the lineup.The Indians must replacesetter Hayley Shepard.The team’s three juniorsand two freshmen whocomprised the remainderof the starting lineup willbe back. Also returningwill be the team’s substi-tutes, who played well inspot duty.

“They’re full of poten-tial,” said headcoachAsh-ley Snell of her returningstarters. “We just to needto find the right setter andput the right lineup to-gether.”

The season-ending lossto Felicity-Franklin, athree-game sweep, putthis season in perspec-tive.TheIndianswillhavean experienced squadnext year, but have theirwork cut out for them.The juniors have wastedno time, already organiz-ing summer workouts.They are determined toearn better results in2015.

“It showed the girlshow much more focusedthey need to be,” saidSnell. “This year’s juniorsrealized how much more

they have to step up.”JuniorsHavenWatson,

Kayla Chisholm, and Em-ma Rust will inherit theleadership role fromShepard. Freshman Alay-na Odom acquitted her-self well in her first sea-son on the varsity, start-ing at middle hitter.

“It was great to haveher on varsity this year,”said Snell. “It was defi-nitelybeneficial forher toplay against this level ofcompetition.”

The Indians struggledagainst the better teamsin the Miami Valley Con-ference Scarlet Division.

CCD was swept in its sixmatches against Cincin-nati Christian, SummitCountry Day, and Cincin-nati Hills Christian Acad-emy. Against all othercompetition, includingthe postseason, the Indi-ans finished above .500.

“We won the games weshould have won,” saidSnell. “I would have likedto see us play betteragainst the tougher teamson our schedule.”

Despite the losses, theIndians showed somepromise. After a string ofearly-season losses, theycould have packed it in

this season. Instead, theteamrallied,buildingcon-fidence with victories inthemiddle part of the sea-son before strugglingagain down the stretch.Even in defeat, the Indi-ans showed that they arecapable of competingwith the upper echelonteams of the MVC.

“We did volley verywell several times againstour tougher competition,”said Snell. “I was proud ofour girls for that. I knowit’s there.”

Snell hopes to see thatuntapped potential sur-face consistently in 2015.

Oct. 8 questionAre you worried about the

Ebolavirus?Whatprecautionsareyou taking and what should pub-

lichealthofficialsbedoingtopre-vent an epidemic?

“I am not worried about theEbolavirus. .. yet.Certainly thisvirus is not something withwhich any of us want to trifle.Unfortunately, the countries inAfricawhere ithasrunrampant(multiple times) do not have thesophistication, full understand-ing or control of their popula-tion to properly contain such avirulent monster as Ebola andthat is why it has killed morethan 4,000 people in that regionin a short period of time.We do.I hope.

“We have all seen themoviesthat portray what can happenwhen a highly contagious ‘bug’

gets lose and the mass hysteriait can quickly create. Sure,those movies are fiction, andone would hope that is ever thecase, but how many times havewe seen fiction from years pastbecome a current reality? Cellphones, Dick Tracy watches,heck even indoor plumbing atone point was a mere dream offascination. With a modicum ofcommonsense, theUSandmostFirst World countries should besafe from Ebola, but it onlytakes a mutation or two by thevirus and stupid people doingstupid things to forever changeour well ordered world. I hopenever to see that day.”

As a resi-dent who hasspent the ma-jority of mylife in Hamil-ton County, Ibelieve we areblessed with awealth of greatneighborhoodsthat appeal toalmost everyinterest.

We have seen exciting de-velopment on The Banks, alongthe I-71 corridor and GreenTownship just to name a few.

Many of these communitiesare experiencing new devel-opment, attracting new resi-dents and adding jobs. We havemany unique neighborhoodsthroughout Hamilton Countythat offer great amenities, withreasonable housing, shortercommutes and a modest cost ofliving compared to other partsof the country.

We don’t hear enough goodnews about Hamilton County,but we actually had an in-crease in population over thepast couple years, the largestof any of our surrounding

counties. Along with a net in-crease in jobs, I am very opti-mistic that this trend will con-tinue.

As our nation’s economyimproves, Hamilton County iswell positioned to prosper, ifgovernment listens to its resi-dents and business owners.One key priority of mine isreducing government red tapeand regulation, so people withnew ideas can succeed.

Change needed inauditor’s office

The thing that upsets me themost is when a politician saysone thing then does another.

That’s what we have withDusty Rhodes. For years hecriticized elected officialsabout “double dipping” – thenstarted double dipping himself.He’s promoted himself as pro-citizen, but actions earlier thisyear prove otherwise.

TheOhioLegislatureaddedareview council to the require-ments to form a JEDZ tax, in aneffort to curb abuse by localgovernments. The purpose: toreview development plans pro-posed by the township. Rhodeschaired the Symmes council,but didn’t appear to know whyhe was there. He rambled onabout needingmoremoney, andliking local government, withno comment on the develop-ment plan which he was

charged to review. Then he vot-ed against workers and busi-nesses, taxing them. Not tomention the huge fines his of-fice (the taxpayers) incurredfor failing to submit filings re-quired by the state in a timelymanner.

I’m voting for Mike Mezher

for Hamilton County auditor.Mezher has ideas to bring theoffice into the 21st Century,with technology, streamlining,and revamping an office thathas been stagnant over 20years.

As a tax-payer andvoter, whatdo I wantfrommyelected offi-cials?

The an-swer is “com-mon sense.”That doesn’tseem toomuch to ask.

Too often we are disappointedby those we elect. In contrast,I have tried to live up to thetrust Hamilton County votershave repeatedly placed in me.

Immediately on takingoffice I stopped the long-standing practice of deduct-ing political contributionsfrom employee pay checks.Most other county officesfollowed my lead about ayear later.

After that, my first taskwas to restore confidence inproperty valuations. I did thatby removing political consid-erations from setting values,by setting training and certi-fication goals for our apprais-al staff and by holding neigh-borhood conferences acrossthe county during the six-year reappraisals so propertyowners could review theirtentative new values.

Then I established ourFinance Department as anhonest, independent checkand balance on every countydepartment for which wemake payments. By writingthe county’s checks we canspot questionable vouchers.

And we did. In one instanceour refusal to pay for a re-ported 650-mile round trip toCleveland (which is about 250miles from here) broughtsignificant, lasting changes incounty travel policies.

Ours was one of the firstmetropolitan areas in thecountry to have a propertysearch website. By makingpublic records available wehave reduced the opportunityfor corruption and savedcountless trips to our officeby professionals who needand use our information ev-ery day. The website allowsus to communicate with citi-zens and even provides esti-mates of individual costs ofproposed tax levies. Our ITDepartment is one of the bestin the region, constantly up-dating our service and oftencalled to assist other countyoffices.

But most important to mein keeping faith with thevoters was my promise tooperate the Auditor’s office ina professional, business-likeway. I did that by reducingour staff from174 employeeswhen I took office to 79 today.

I have been honored byyour support over the yearsand ask for your vote againthis year. I look forward tothe challenges ahead and tomeeting themwith “commonsense.”

Well, it’s done. Theentire veggiegarden is now

nothing but a flat field,ready to be plowed under

for thewinter.Pumpkinsand gourdshave re-placed thepots ofherbs andflowersnear thedoorways.Just forfun, I put a

little pumpkin display bythe chicken coop. It willbe interesting to see howlong it’s undisturbed bythe nightly four-footedmarauders.

I’m hoping to get toour local farmers’ mar-ket this week to makethis really good and well-tested recipe for applebutter. What I love aboutthis apple butter is itspurity, just apples, juice,sugar if you like, andwarming spices. Butthere is a secret ingredi-ent…

Crockpot applebutter

Wow, this recipe hasbeen making the roundslately. My oldest and bestfriend, Carol Spry Vanov-

er (you probably feel likeyou know her, I’ve men-tioned her that much!)first told me about this.Carol received a bunchof apples from a friendand made apple butter.Except for her “secret”ingredient, I couldn’tbelieve Carol’s is thesame recipe I used yearsago when we had an ap-ple orchard. Wonderfulfor sharing with familyand friends. One otherthought: I don’t add asmuch sugar as it calls for.

14 nice sized apples2 cups apple juice or

pure apple cider1 cup sugar or howev-

er much you want, foreach pint of sievedcooked fruit (see below)

1 teaspoon cinnamon,1/2 teaspoon each groundallspice and cloves foreach pint of sievedcooked fruit (see below)

1/2 cup “secret” ingre-dient: sweet white wine -Carol usedMoscato (op-tional)

DirectionsCore and quarter ap-

ple (do not peel). Com-bine with juice insprayed crockpot. Coverand cook on low for 10-12hours or high for 2 - 4hours. When fruit is ten-der, you’ve cooked it longenough. Put through food

mill to remove peel.Measure cooked fruit

and return to crock pot.For each pint of fruit,add up to 1 cup of sugaror other sweetener, 1teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2teaspoon allspice and 1/2teaspoon cloves. Stirwell. Cover and cookagain on high for 6 - 8hours, stirring aboutevery 2 hours.

Remove cover after 3hours or more to allow tocook down to a very thickpuree. Add wine duringlast hour of cooking.Spoon into hot sterilizedjars and process accord-ing to boiling water bathcanning method or coolcompletely and store infreezer up to 1 year orfrig up to a month. Makesclose to 6 cups.

Tip from Rita’skitchen

Use a combination ofapples if you can, somesweet, some tart. Theonly one I’d steer clear ofis red delicious since theflavor doesn’t carrythrough.

Readers want to know:Floating “severed hands”for Halloween punch.

Fill clear plasticgloves (not powdered)with your favorite bever-age. I like red fruit punch

or something clear. Ifdesired, before pouringinto glove, stir in a fewdrops of red food col-oring. Tie gloved handwith a rubber band, se-curely tightened. Placeon cookie sheet. If youlike, place over a smallplastic bowl to create a“clutching” hand. Freeze

until hard. To removefrom glove, cut belowknot and peel back glove.To assure you don’t breakoff fingers, use scissorsto cut around fingers.Place in punch rightbefore serving.

The Ultimate MeatResource: Cook’s Illus-trated Meat book. No

kidding, put this hardcover beauty on yourwish list, or grab a copynow. This comprehensive“bible” of meat cookeryis just what I’d expectfrom Cook’s. You’ll feellike you’re in a cookingclass with each recipe,they are that detailed andtested umpteen timesuntil the word that de-scribes the recipe is“perfect”. From slowroasted bone-in porkroast to the perfect roastturkey and everything inbetween, nothing is leftto chance. There’s also awealth of tips through-out.
