The Beaverton Resource Guide (BRG) is a free monthly community paper written, edited and published in Beaverton, by Beaverton residents and for the businesses and people of Beaverton, Oregon, USA. Cedar House Media published the first edition in April of 2011 featuring local businesses, community news, and the Farmers Market. That first issue was 16 pages. Today, the paper is 32 pages and sponsored by a diverse cross section of public and private community organizations.

Beaverton has so many positive attributes and many go unnoticed. The BRG is our way of giving back to the community by highlighting what makes our city a great place to live, work and shop. With a focus on small, local businesses, we’d like to encourage our neighbors to first visit nearby stores and give them a chance before moving on to businesses outside our community.

With our unique layout, colorful design and exclusive community content, our readers are beyond loyal. Not only do they want to know "What's Happening in Beaverton This Month" but they also agree with our philosophy of: "Shop Local - Give Local - Stay Local."

As a business in the Beaverton area, your ad will be seen by those who are most willing to go out of their way to keep their dollars close to home. These shoppers, your potential new customers, also happen to be our best readers! In addition, we don’t print massive quantities and mail them out to uninterested parties. Our papers are located in convenient and high traffic locations ready to be picked up by those who love Beaverton. With low rates, targeted distribution and a willingness to provide more value than what you pay for, you'll find that we're just as interested in stretching your advertising dollar as you are!

Message from the ChiefCitizens Academy

In 1993 the Beaverton Police

Citizens Academy. The Academy was designed to increase under-standing between the Department and its community through educa-tion and interaction. This has been accomplished by acquainting citi-zens, through a 12 week free class, with law enforcement, the commu-nity’s role in the criminal justice system and providing increased

understanding of the tasks police

We feel that with better under-standing, it becomes easier for

solutions to neighborhood prob-lems related to crime, fear of crime and neighborhood decay.

Currently, in its 47th session, the Beaverton Police Department Citizens Academy is one of the many ways in which we are striv-ing to develop a sense of coopera-tion to achieve our goal to provide a safe and security community for all Beaverton citizens.

If you are interested in applying for the next Citizens Academy, or would like additional information, please visit our website at www.beavertonpolice.org or contact

New Restaurant SpotlightSiam Lotus opens at The Round

YYou no longer have to hoof it to Portland's east side to enjoy the best Thai chicken wings in town, Siam Lotus has created the tasti-est wings right here at The Round. Along with this new treat, Siam Lotus offers something no other

Thai restaurant can -- Thai Street Food. Chef Sunitsa Sitticharoen says this fare takes more time and most people aren't willing to do it. She is meticulous about quality of the food, while her husband, Lek, is a stickler for a quality dining experience. Between the two of them, you will be impressed.

You may know of the famous

Siam Thai. Because of their great taste and reputation, many custom-ers asked them if they would ever open another location. The Round was a perfect location - not only for the residents and tenants, but for

over as well.Please join them in their new-

est adventure. Start with the Salmon Mango Salad and the BBQ

Chicken or Thai Chicken Wings, chose a tasty drink from their full bar and then ease into a rice or noodle dish before you top off with dessert and a cup of some of the

Check out their menus here: http://www.siamlotusoregon.com/ and their Facebook page for spe-cials and new items https://www.facebook.com/SiamLotusOregon

From My Kitchen to Yours, Neighborly Recipes by KimGrandma’s breaded and baked Italian meatball recipe

othing reminds me of my child-hood like my grandmothers

delicious pasta nights with home-made meat balls and homemade crusty Italian bread. Here is the recipe I got from my grandmother, tweaking it a little from how my family likes it over the years and I bet your family will love it as well.

Ingredients: 2 Large Eggs1/3 cup of balsamic and basil vinaigrette dressing (or you can substitute with tomato sauce)½ cup grated Parmesan Romano1 teaspoon Pepper (more or less depending on your taste)1 teaspoon Salt (more or less depending on your taste)1 teaspoon Garlic Powder (more or less depending on your taste)1 tablespoon Minced Garlic1-2cups of Seasoned Italian Bread Crumbs

to use ground turkey, but for your family dinner you can use beef)

Directions

Line Cookie trays with tin foil and spray with nonstick spray.

Step 1: Put ground meat into one bowl then add one egg, a couple of tablespoons of the vinegarette (or

sauce), your minced garlic, your garlic powder, your salt, pepper and a half of a cup of your grated parmesan cheese and a half of a cup of your seasoned bread crumbs. Mix all ingredients together well until all of your spices are com-pletely mixed throughout all of the chopped meat.

Step 2: After all of the ingredients are mixed together you can start to roll the meatballs. To roll the meat-balls you can take small handfuls of the meat into the palm of your hand and roll them using both hands. Personally, I like to go a little larger then golf ball sized meatballs so they hold up in the sauce or on the plate. Once you have all the meatballs made, you can then dip them into the bowl containing one egg beaten with a few drops of milk, make sure you cover the meatball completely in the egg wash. Once covered, then drop the meatball into your bowl of seasoned breadcrumbs. Make sure you roll it until it is completely covered in the bread crumbs. Then place the breaded meatball on your cookie tray.

Step 3: Place the tray into you’re preheated oven and let them cook

Step 4: After the meatballs are cooked, take meatballs out and cut through one of them to make sure they are cooked completely through. Once they are cooked to your satisfaction, you can throw the meatballs onto a dish or into your sauce and let your family enjoy!

The Care & Feeding of Your HomeMany store bought cleaners are simply overkill

Goo Gone, for instance, is a great product for removing adhesives – like the kind left behind when you remove product labels. It’s a great product, that is, unless the label was stuck to plastic – then the Goo Gone attacks the plastic as well as the adhesive.

For years, I’ve used a general purpose cleaner made of equal parts of clear ammonia, isopropyl alcohol, and water. This cleaner contains three of the best solvents available and they all work well together. I learned the hard way, though, that ammonia is also a great latex paint remover.

After I strip out old caulking from a kitchen or bath countertop, I frequently clean the surface using

acetone to remove any oils, so that the new caulking will stick real well. Again, experience was my teacher when I learned that acetone

Zoo News is Good News Zoo’s new ‘Small Actions’ guide connects everyday acts with wildlife conservation

Stop poachers with a smart-phone, save salmon with bak-

ing soda and protect penguins with a car key. This week, the Oregon Zoo launched Small Actions, an innovative digital how-to guide that empowers everyone to become a wildlife defender.

Small Actions, online at oregonzoo.org/small-actions, lets

users explore how everyday deci-sions about what to buy and do can help protect many threatened and endangered species. Users can also spread messages about protect-ing wildlife through a customized social media sharing feature.

“People can feel helpless when they read about species fac-ing extinction around the world and even in our own backyard, but there are simple things we

can do everyday to stop extinc-tion from happening,” said Grant Spickelmier, the zoo’s education curator. “For instance, Small Actions includes a guide to opting out of junk mail, which not only clutters up your mailbox, but also causes deforestation that leaves wildlife homeless.”

The Small Actions guide fea-tures 22 actions including how to make nontoxic cleaners, choose

-life-friendly volunteer opportuni-ties. Each action indicates which

“Saving energy around the house by adjusting your thermostat or switching to LED bulbs helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions,” said zoo conservation and research

“Most people know that saving

energy helps polar bears, but cli-mate change also affects bumble-bees, frogs and penguins.”

Beaverton’s Trees Put on Fall PerformanceAutumn colors are on display thought the city for FREE!

Beaverton’s trees are at their fall best and decorate our streets

with festive fall color. Fall is one of the fun times to watch and enjoy trees.

In Beaverton the fall color starts with the Ash trees. The Summit and Patmore Ash start off with vibrant yellow framing Sexton Mt. drive. Followed by the Ray wood Ash with its brilliant purple along Gleneden and Gearhart, the Green Ash is quick to follow with its iri-descent glow of greens and orange like a Jack o’ lantern.

The Maples are right behind with the Red Maples lighting up streets like Brockman and Allen

Sunset Maples are next. The

The Sweet gums are late to get stated but always put on a great show on SW Downing drive with

Food for ThoughtHealth through nutrition is a great concept.

Understanding why nutrition is so important could be

the fuel for change. According to the Surgeon General’s Report on

deaths in the United States. Cells are constantly regenerating, replacing, and repairing themselves.

So what does our body need to create healthy cells?

To clean the digestive tract and move the waste through more quickly, your body needs a scrub brush like

roughage. This action cleans the walls and lessens the bodies exposure to toxic gases due to the fermentation and putrefaction of foods.

If you want to look and feel healthier, you have to eat healthier. Generally speaking: more fruits and vegetables and less processed foods and animal proteins.

Ideally, 5-6 servings daily of fruits and vegetables, both cooked and raw:

As a graduate of the Le Cordon Bleu Program in Culinary Studies, I enjoy experiencing the fine dining available at so many of our local eating establishments. Beaverton has such diversity to offer the curious palate that it’s hard to know where to begin. Well, now you can start your month off right here with me and my 3 Dishes Review.

3 Dishes Neighborhood Restaurant ReviewBootleggers Whiskey Bar

If you want to watch the latest ballgame and sink a few singles

into a slot machine, Bootleggers is not for you. Heck, owners Doug

will happily refer you next door to the Broadway Saloon for that kind

-ing for a place to get great mixed drinks and nosh on some high-end bar food, feel free to walk into Bootleggers Whiskey Bar.

Here is what’s unique about Bootleggers. As the name sug-gests, this bar pays homage to the Prohibition Era: that unfortunate time in America, under the Volstead Act, where it was illegal to sell, produce, or transport alcohol (from

in spite of this act, would produce alcohol (bootlegging) and open up secret bars to sell their hooch.

But enough of the history lesson, let’s get to the fun part. Doug credits

mixed drinks that were popular dur-

authentic, the methods behind the libations are also true to the bar-tending crafts of yesteryear. In fact, the art of frothing a drink using egg whites does not go ignored by these Bootlegger mixologists.

In addition to the tasty drinks

Gerald Jeppesen to handle the cooking duties. The menu is simple, comprising of small plates and entrees all made from scratch using local ingredients and local vendors. As a testament to Chef Gerald’s hard work and skill, he has turned bar food (which is normally a bunch of bland fried, greasy fare) into a respectful portfolio of carefully, thought out delicious cuisine:

��Bacon & Jalapeño Wrapped Shrimp and Stuffed Mushrooms/$9(Paring: Pendleton Manhattan/$10)

This is a great little combo of an appetizer. The bacon wrapped

kick to it. Dip it into the maple bour-bon glaze to add a little sweetness

provide the delicate relief from the hard-hitting jalapenos. Stuffed with Italian sausage, cream cheese and chives, each bite challenges you to not let the succulent juices drip down your chin. This dish is paired with a Pendleton Manhattan, made with Pendleton whisky, sweet ver-mouth, bitters and garnished with a cherry. It is smooth like the city it is named after.

��Italian Meatball/$11Paring: Blood Orange Bourbon/$8

Homemade meatballs, stuffed with mozzarella cheese, served with tender penne pasta and an Alfredo sauce made to order. The meatballs are super tender. When cut into, the mozzarella just oozes out. Surprisingly, you do not see more eateries attempt this style of meatball. The Alfredo sauce is creamy and smooth, appropriately portioned where the penne pasta is not swimming in a moat of sauce. As a reward, I had a Blood Orange Bourbon, prepared with Buffalo Trace Bourbon, blood orange soda, and simple syrup. It is sweet, tangy, followed with a nice kick from the bourbon.

��Cardamom Cake/$7Paring: Blackberry Bramble/$12

This delicate upgrade to the boring coffee cake is moist and rich, with seams of cinnamon and walnuts and drizzled with a whis-key-butter sauce. Chef Gerald uses sour cream in his recipe to make this dessert extra moist. To balance the sweetness of the cake, I was prepared a Blackberry Bramble, made with Pendleton

lemon juice, Maraschino liquor, club soda and a sprig of mint. It is crisp and tart. The fresh blackber-ries just complements the fresh-ness of the drink.

Bootleggers serves a classic atmospheric vibe, transforming you to the days when bars were a place to have great drinks and chum it up with good friends. Come here, relax, eat some great food and have a well-made drink. Prohibition may be over but it’s alive and kickin’ here in old town Beaverton.

These were my 3 dishes, which ones will you try?

Washington County Sheriff’s OfficeHow to avoid a ticket this holiday season

Deputies are on the lookout this holiday season and they

are focusing on aggressive driv-ing behaviors on highways and freeways. Our goal is safe driving, not ticket revenue, so please check your driving habits to see where you can improve without being pulled over.

Focus on Safe Passing When you change lanes, the

vehicle you pass should not have to hit the brakes to avoid hitting you. Check your distance this month to

see if you are inadvertently cutting off other drivers with abrupt lane changes. When passing a large vehicle, you should see the entire cab of the truck or bus in your rear view mirror before changing lanes.

Avoid Following Too CloselyA safe following distance

vision of the road ahead and that you can stop within four seconds if needed. For instance, if the car in front of you passes a certain point (say a road sign), then you should pass the same point about four or more seconds later. This is because

it generally takes 3 seconds to stop or take other action to avoid a crash, leaving only 1 sec-ond for the driver to make a decision. The number one cause of crashes is following too closely. Try timing yourself next time

and at different speeds until your habits adjust.

Take a Break from TrafficOur best advice is to drive when

you are not rushed or stressed out. If you start to feel frustrated or angry behind the wheel, pull over and give yourself a break. Stop at a store, grab a soft drink, or just take a short walk to cool off. Attitude is everything when you’re behind the wheel.

One of Washington County’s

most serene and picturesque locations, Jenkins Estate on Cooper Mountain in Aloha has long been a destination for weddings.Now it is a destination for urban gardeners as well.A new 15,000-square-foot “learning garden” was planted in a meadow at the estate this year by the Master Gardeners of Washington County, a nonpro t organization that provides horticultural and pest control advice to any community member in need.“It gives patrons a new resource,

utilizes the space, and promotes sustainable behavior,” said Mike Fontenot of Maintenance, THPRD’s liaison with Master Gardeners. “You can come up here and get tons of ideas.”Master Gardeners, an Oregon State University Extension Service, approached THPRD last year in search of a park site to host a proposed new garden. Jenkins Estate was identi ed as an ideal location because the required space was available and the learning garden could attract new visitors to the site.THPRD provided labor – including Washington County Corrections crews – to help build out the garden and its irrigation. The district also lends tools to assist Master Gardeners at the site and makes the Gatehouse available for weekly meetings.

Sandy Japely is the garden’s coordinator. She said the garden is funded primarily by grants and the fundraising efforts of volunteers, for whom the garden is a labor of love.Anyone interested in learning more about sustainable gardening

can visit the garden any Thursday, from 10 am - 1 pm, when volunteers host work hours at the site. Additionally, classes and demonstrations – most of them free – are often scheduled on Thursdays and Saturdays. The garden is composed of several sections, each with a speci c purpose. Among them are “Urban Edibles,”

“Water Wise,” “Companion Garden,” and “Northwest Natives.”These displays and others – including spiral herb garden, vegetable garden, composting station, and a bee habitat – provide tangible examples of thriving

gardens meant to inspire novice gardeners. The next step, Japely says, is to put in learning stations for self-guided instruction.“It’s a beautiful space, with incredible people to work with, and you’re going to learn a ton about how to garden sustainably,” Japely said. “Everybody who takes a class arrives thinking they know some things about gardening; afterwards, they go, ‘I don’t know anything!’”

Q: My son broke his leg and is in a cast. Can I pull into a disabled parking

space and just drop him off?

A: Yes. Oregon Revised Statute 811.615(2a): Momentarily parking a vehicle in a parking space marked or signed for persons with disabilities for the purpose of allowing a person with a disability to enter or leave the vehicle is permitted.

Q: Are all yellow lights the same length in seconds?

A: The yellow change interval is set using a formula from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE). The formula takes into account the posted speed and the grade of the street. On streets with different posted speeds the yellow time will be different. The higher the speed, the longer the yellow time. Also if the intersection is on steep grade the yellow time at that intersection will be longer than other intersections on a flat grade with the same posted speed limit.

Q: My friend wants to modify his car, a sedan, so that he can remove the doors, hood and trunk

in the summer time, as if he were in a strange looking jeep. Is any part of this illegal?

A: Yes its legal. The only requirements is that you have seat belts and windshield wipers.

Q: At what cross street does Canyon Rd officially change to TV Hwy? Is it the same for Farmington

Rd and Beaverton Hillsdale Hwy?

A: Canyon Rd and TV Hwy officially change names at SW Hocken. East is Canyon Rd and West is TV Hwy. Beaverton Hillsdale Hwy changes to Farmington Rd at Lombard Ave.

Q : Is it legal to change lanes in the middle of an intersection?

A: No lane changes can take place in the middle of an intersection.

A True Story about Neighbors helping NeighborsPre-owned Cars are Never Perfect

During the months of August and September, I’ve received calls,

as well as emails, from our readers here in Beaverton and here is one I’d like to share and not because I felt compelled to help a person in need, but because it’s an example of what you can do after buying a pre-owned car that still has some issues.

The story of Mrs PThe reader (I’ll call her Mrs.

pre-owned Acura RDX SUV. The

it was purchased from a local non-Acura dealership.

Mrs. P asked a number of ques-tions via telephone about what would be covered under the new vehicle warranty. The vehicle had some paint damage from bird droppings as well as a couple of scratches. The vehicle manuals and

bluetooth and the voice command buttons on the steering wheel were not working.

In Beaverton, we help neighbors because that’s what we do here

Learning that Mrs. P was a recent widow and had never purchased a vehicle without her husband, I was compelled to help her out in any way I was able. And it’s not necessarily because it’s the dealership’s way or even my way, but rather it’s what I’ve found to be

the Beaverton way. In this city, I’ve been on the receiving end more times than I can count and so when an opportunity comes along to give back, it’s what makes this city a great place to call home. I really liked this person and how they had asked for help so had them drop by.

When we met, I found out where they purchased the vehicle. I quickly put in a call to the detail shop of that dealership and after a little conver-sation, I was able to retrieve all the manuals as well as the all-season

I then inspected the vehicle to see what part of the voice command and bluetooth buttons on the steer-ing wheel we not operating. After a quick call to the Acura dealer Mrs. P had an appointment. The Acura Dealer asked that we drop off the vehicle and after doing so found that the electrical control module was at fault but would be replaced within 24 hours. This was great news and a simple repair. We retrieved the vehicle the next day and the voice command and bluetooth were now in working order.

and scratches. These items were actually normal wear and tear and not something that is covered by any warranty from any manufac-

vehicle to my work and personally ran the buffer over the damage on the hood from the bird droppings, then buffed a couple of smudges off of the front and back bumpers. One of my staff even helped her with some touch up painting for a couple of the larger scratches.

Lastly was a crash course on how to operate the vehicle. I explained when the warranty started and when

this lady had ever made on her own, I felt that helping her was more about doing the right thing. Everything I did for Mrs. P was complementary and took less than an hour of my time because I knew where to go, who to talk to and how to get results. Left on her own, Mrs. P could still be looking for answers.

Pre-owned cars are never perfectPre-owned cars are never per-

fect and often simple problems like missing manuals aren’t noticed until after it’s been driven off the lot. But follow my lead as I did with Mrs. P and your pre-owned car can be the best move you ever made. If not, don’t hesitat to give me a call!

A True Story about Porch Package TheftAnd holiday safety tips from BPD

A recent arrest related to porch package theft was a gentle

reminder that it’s not too early to be talking about holiday safety. As a mat-ter of fact, with the increase in online shopping it makes perfect sense to cover the topic since more purchases are ending up on door steps.

In the October incident, the sus-pect saw a package being delivered to a central Beaverton home. The homeowner caught the suspect in the act of taking the package

the suspect auto. The homeowner followed the suspect long enough to get a license plate number and observe the cars occupants throw mail out of the window. The plate led authorities to a Beaverton home and eventually to a local hotel where the package was discovered and the suspect arrested.

According to detectives who conducted follow up on the case the

suspects actions were guided by a drug addiction which is very often the case with people who commit such crimes. That connection alone can make the perpetrators a scary bunch of people to deal with.

So, what do you do? Packages need to be delivered.

First, check with your carrier to see if the delivery can be made dur-ing the time you are home. If you work during the daytime consider having the package delivered there. Check with a trusted neighbor who works out of the home and/or is a stay at home parent to see if they would be willing to accept packages on your behalf. Purchase space at a mail drop service where delivered packages are supervised. Alert a close neighbor and have them peri-odically check for the delivery.

Stolen packages are not the only crime to be on your radar but it seems to be a popular trend lately.

If you’re shopping:Stay alert and be aware of what’s going on around you.Take time parking your car

looking for well lighted areas as close to the main doors as

of cash. Using plastic may make you less of a physical tar-get for opportunistic criminals.Don’t overburden yourself with packages that limit your vis-ibility or ability to move freely in an emergency situation.If you are using plastic (credit cards) make sure you check your statements frequently to ensure purchases noted are cor-rect and you haven’t become an identity theft victim. Experts also suggest that you are “better protected” using a credit card versus a debit card.Awareness, not falling victim to scams, target hardening and ID protection are some of the keys to not becoming a crime victim.

Musings of a Beaverton TeenThe pros and cons of being a teen

Everyone says that being a teen is hard and most teenagers

would agree. We have to deal with the stress of high school, responsi-

the anxiety of becoming an adult and being responsible for oneself. Even though teenage years may suck, it can also be the best years of your life. So which is it?

Since there is a lot of debate going on with teens about if its the best or worst time of their lives, I’ve decided to make a pros and cons list about our teenage years.

Teen Pros

Most teens can say that being a teen is great since we get more responsibility than when we were kids. We have more freedom too. We get to make adult decisions which means being treated as an adult. Being a teenager means we’re “growing up” and almost into the adult world, so many parents lighten up to allow us more freedom.

We get to go out with friends and

go shopping and go places without our parents hovering over us. We get the responsibility of driving (yeah!). We get to make resumes to land jobs so we can make money to

start to fending for ourselves. All these things seem so excit-

ing. It means you’re practically an adult and doing almost everything by ourselves. Don’t get me wrong,

teen. Its like playing adult without all taxes and money problems. But there are also some downsides to being a teenager in today’s world.

Teen ConsOther teens say that being a

teen sucks sooo much because of the stress that goes along with the added responsibility. Teenagers have high school and most every-one hates school. High school is worse to us now. When we were little, we were all excited to get into high school to go to prom and have money and have responsibilities and stuff like that. But then when we get to high school, we experi-ence the reality of so much work to do and all the stress that goes along with it (it kinda sucks).

Plus, teens have the chore of keeping track of all our school work ourselves. When we were younger, our parents always made sure we had everything and our teachers caught us up on work we missed if we missed school for

track of it ourselves, and when we miss school we have to get all the work we missed by asking the teachers or friends.

And then there’s the whole dat-ing scene, alcohol, bullying and more.

ConclusionEven though being a teenager

sounds like a lot of stress and work, it’s not all that bad. Teens have some stress to deal with because we’re heading towards the scary town of adulthood. Teenage years are a rollercoaster of ups and downs, both pros and cons. Ups being free to do what you want and downs being all the stress of school

how you look at it, being a teen can be either scary or thrilling. It all just depends on how you look at the current situation you’re in.

16 year old Miranda Thornton is a junior at the Health and Science High School. Although she has a passion for writing, Miranda hopes to study psychiatry in college.

Hey man, now that we’re teens, we get the responsibility to

act irresponsibly!

Busy Beavers at Beaverton HighIntroducing Senior Atelaite Fusitua

It’s the classic sitcom parents threat: “Shape up or I’ll send you

to military school!” For Beaverton senior Atelaite Fusitua, however, the threat became a reality. Due to a lack of credits in school, Fusitua

Even after all the obstacles she faced, the vigorous training improved her well-being over all, and Fusitua accomplished things she had never thought possible for her, including running twelve miles in the thin mountain air.

OYCP has left a great impact on Fusitua. She claims the program has left her more focused and posi-tive about life. She is also a more healthy person, both mentally and physically. “Before I really didn’t care about anything, to be honest,” stated Fusitua. It even inspired her

Fusitua went into the program prepared for the worst, and instead

found a world of rewards despite all the challenges. “I expected it to be

just crying and unhappiness. What surprised me was I really enjoyed it and I feel like I found my sense of purpose. I found myself.”

Speeder Spotlight for Seniors3 simple tips for moving

Just the other day a friend asked me for tips about moving since

I had helped seniors move from houses to apartments for so many years. She was moving across town and would be hiring movers. The conversation got rolling and I real-ized that I should share these tips with you all too.

Tips #1When hiring a moving company

be sure to do your research. All mov-ing companies are required by law

number. Be sure to ask what their number is and check with Oregon Department of Transportation to be sure it is accurate. ODOT has a list

If the moving company does not

use them.

Tip #2As for the week of moving,

be sure to keep a box or folder separate from what will go in the moving truck. In that box, it is good to keep any moving related paperwork, including paperwork about the moving truck. Other important documents like birth

keep in the box and then move that box yourself in your car.

Tip #3As you are packing up your

clothes, pack a suitcase witha week or two of clothing that you will also move in your car, not the mov-ing truck. Think of it as packing for vacation. What items will you need while you are packing and unpacking the truck? Prescriptions, toiletries, etc. That way when you get to your new home won’t need to rummage through boxes trying

These are just a few tips to help make moving a little easier and

possibly a little more bearable. Remember to check your speed

and enjoy the ride!

Heavens to Murgatroyd, Don’t Touch That Dial!Words we seldom hear anymore

Every generation has phrases and slang words that are popu-

lar for a few years, then disappear as language evolves. Their origins are often murky and imprecise. Each, however, tells a story and enriches the way we communicate. Here are a few gleaned from past Beaverton High School yearbooks, local newspaper archives and other historic texts.

Bee’s knees: Meaning awesome and sweet or new and stylish. It may come from the nectar that sticks to

similar to the cat’s pajamas. In the

Morning Oregonian newspaper in June of 1922, a popular English author/screenwriter and part-time Hollywood resident Elinor Glyn would write a column on what

authority on style and moral issues, her regular feature would appear in the Sunday paper and ask “It’s the bee’s knees?”

Jake leg: This medical term describes a loss of voluntary movement and damage caused by drinking impure or contaminated alcohol. It originated in Oklahoma during the last days of Prohibition,

was a patent medicine, also known as “jake”. Overindulgence caused a partial paralysis that resulted in the inability to walk normally.

23 skidoo: American slang for leaving quickly, either on your own

or being forced to go. Accounts of its origin vary and there seems to

dirived from the number 23 which was associated with bad luck and “skedaddle”, meaning to leave.

Heavens to Murgatroyd: The Hanna-Barbera cartoon studio created

on TV’s The Yogi Bear Show. The pink mountain lion popularized this

the 1944 movie Meet The People.

Zoot suit: A man’s suit that has a high waist, wide legs, tight cuffs, a loose, knee-length coat with padded shoulders and wide lapels, it was popular in the United States

broad-brimmed hat, adorned with a feather, and a key chain that reached to the knees completed the unmistakable look.

Don’t touch that dial: Uttered by an announcer just before a TV program took a commercial break, it reminds us of the early days of television before wireless remote controls were everyday items. The sentence has been reimagined in recent years to a song, collection of classic commercials, book, and a wide variety of other applications.

Marcel Wave: A women’s hairstyle

named for its creator, French hair stylist and salon owner Francois Marcel (or possibly Marcel

Enterprise informed readers, “The Beauty Box has put in a new line of cosmetics and on Mondays and Fridays they will give a free facial demonstration with each marcel, good only for the month of May.”

Tips for Giving the Gift of JewelryAlways be prepared

The scene: A young couple standing in front of a waterfall.

She is focusing her new camera, trying to compose the perfect pic-ture. He opens the box and slides it in front of the lens. In the box- his great aunt’s engagement ring. He places it on her hand. As she admires the beautiful art deco ring. She runs her hand across the top - and the center falls off!

They were lucky. The center dropped into the camera bag. But it is a good lesson: always be prepared!

A few tips for giving a gift of jewelry:

If giving a vintage or fam-ily jewel make sure you have it reviewed by a jeweler for wear and

stability. The jeweler should clean the piece and review the prongs, stones and metal for signs of wear and previous repair. Repairs ide-ally should be completed before you present the piece.

jewelry should be reviewed, appraised and insured before it’s

appraiser will describe in detail the gems and metals and photograph the piece. They will produce a document that will value the piece for replacement. One copy will go to your insurance company and one should be held along with any

receipts for the piece in a secure place like a safety deposit box.

Contact your home owner’s or renters insurance company about insuring the pieces. They will most likely require a ‘rider’ on your policy. In addition, there are com-panies like Jeweler’s Mutual that

every piece of jewelry is unique. Our jewelry insurance experts note every detail of your jewelry so that if you need a repair or replacement, you receive the same kind and quality as your existing item.

Smith & Bevill, your local family jewelry store, has AGS certified appraisers on staff as well as master gold smiths and factory certified watch makers. We are buy gold, silver and platinum jewelry.

Message From the Market MasterFinally, dog food that humans would beg for!

About 7 years ago, our beloved Golden Retriever, Lucy, was

diagnosed with stomach cancer. As she became increasingly hard to feed, we learned a lot about dog food and how much garbage most brands contained. Many of them were little more than shred-ded cardboard full of sub-standard ingredients. It was then that we decided to start making our own dog food using people grade, sus-tainable ingredients. I’ll admit that it is a big commitment and I realize that many people don’t have the time to put that much effort into feeding their pets. For those peo-ple, I am excited to introduce a new vendor to the market – Portland Pet Food Company.

and her son Matt, PPFC strives to make “human-grade, artisan dog food” from natural, local ingre-dients, including free-range beef

They never use chemicals or addi-tives. Currently they make two

Yams.

of dog food, they also make doggy treats known as Portland Beer Biscuits. They are made from spent brewing grains obtained from local brewers which are low in wheat, wheat-free rye, peanut butter and egg. They also make gluten free biscuits.

“locally-sourced, sustainable dog food” sounds like material for a Portlandia skit and I wouldn’t be surprised if it wasn’t worked into an episode or two. If that is the case, I hope that Portland Pet Food Company gets a cameo on the show, because they have made a case for feeding our pets with the same care and commitment in which we feed ourselves.

See you at the Market!

Recipe of the MonthRicky’s Delectable Delicata Soup

Fthe BRG, we’ve got a great Delicata Squash soup recipe sub-mitted to us by Gathering Together Farms. Sorry I don’t have a photo

to take a couple photos of Delicata Squash at the Gathering Together booth. Here’s a little background about this amazing winter squash (from Wikipedia):

Delicata squash (Cucurbita pepo var. pepo ‘Delicata’) is a win-ter squash with distinctive longitu-dinal dark green stripes on a yellow or cream colored background and

also known as the peanut squash, Bohemian squash, or sweet potato squash. Although considered a winter squash, delicata squash belongs to the same species as all types of summer squash known in the U.S.A. (including pattypan squash, zucchini and yellow crook-neck squash).

Delicata squash is most com-monly baked, but can also be microwaved, sautéed or steamed. It may be stuffed with meat or vegetable mixtures. The seeds of

the squash are also eaten, usually after being toasted. This squash is not as rich in beta-carotene as other winter squashes, but is a good

-sium, as well as smaller amounts of vitamins C and B, magnesium, and manganese.

Here’s the recipe, enjoy!

Vendor SpotlightProFarm Produce

ProFarm Produce is a wholesale fruit and produce company

that was founded by two brothers, Ryan and Shane Stonemetz, in the

are fourth generation farmers that had no desire of taking over the family business. They grew up watching their father and grand-father work hard every minute of everyday just to stress and wonder if the fruit warehouses controlling the market would pay enough to not only cover the expenses for the previous year, but also enough to provide for their family! So, Ryan and Shane both went to college

Ryan living in Portland, and Shane living in Seattle, couldn’t believe the markup in prices of fruit from what the farmer got to what it was sold for in the stores. They were distraught knowing that their family puts in all the hard work, the expenses, the stress and pressure of growing high-quality fruit just to be underpaid and unap-preciated by the “middle-man” and retailers! This is when ProFarm Produce was born.

Ryan and Shane left everything they had going for them, bought a little 12-foot reefer truck and loaded it up with organic cher-ries. They took off to Portland, OR with no wholesale clients, but had a goal and were determined to succeed. They knew if they can just get the consumer to try their

product and see the price, they’d be hooked. They joined a few local farmers markets in Portland, OR. The response they got from cus-tomers on the quality of their fruit and the prices they sold them at, Ryan and Shane knew they were on to something. Gradually they picked up a few wholesale clients that then referred other clients and ProFarm Produce began to grow!

in the Portland area, more whole-sale clients, and expanding to the Seattle market. They started with a dream and goal of cutting out the middle man and being a direct wholesaler to the retailer and con-sumer. They knew that not only would the fruit be fresher, but they would have the capability of sell-ing their product at a MUCH lower cost. Thus far, we’re on our way to reaching our goals, and we’ve become a dream come true for our customers.

The notebook containing the two novels was preserved by her daughters but not examined until 1998. In 2004, the two books were published in a single volume.

Come to the Artisan Fine Arts Sale and exhibition/demo at Elsie Stuhr Center (503-629-6342), Fri-Sat, Nov. 14-15, Artists Reception Friday, Nov. 14. 2:30-4pm.

Synopsis: Based on the beloved, timeless film, this heartwarming musical adaptation features 17 Irving Berlin songs. War veterans Bob Wallace and Phil Davis have a successful song-and-dance act after World War II. With romance in mind, the two follow a duo of beautiful singing sisters en route to their Christmas show at a Vermont lodge, which just happens to be owned by Bob and Phil’s former army commander. White Christmas is an uplifting musical for the whole family.


Synopsis: This show is for anyone who finds the holidays more than a little stressful. Armed with a copy of “A Christmas Survival Guide” the characters search for the true essence of Christmas. In songs and vignettes, they learn to cope with the season in ways that are both hilarious and heartwarming. Spiked with comedy, tempered with tender reflections, and infused with some favorite seasonal tunes, this light-hearted revue will de-stress and refresh one and all with holiday cheer!

Synopsis: Follow the adventures of Jo, Meg, Amy, and Beth, as they grow up during the Civil War era. Starting out in poverty, a Christmas-time let- -ter from their absent father serves as inspiration for a posi-tive out- -look, and leads to the intertwining of their lives with their wealthy neighbor and his grandson, Laurie. Despite the petty sibling rivalries, illness, blossoming love interests, and travel, the family re-mains thankful for their blessings and each other.
