By S.D. ShapiroAs much of our holiday
cheer in the form ofwrapping paper andcardboard boxes, headsoff to the recycling cen-ter, we’re faced with awhole new year. Thepromise of the new yearcomes with all the reso-lutions we’ve failed withbefore; save money, loseweight, get healthy.
The advent of socialmedia has sprouted upwith a myriad of helpfulhints for making suc-
cessful resolutions. Your svelte beach body
is right around the cor-ner. Except that foodtastes good. Here’s afailsafe diet plan; if ittastes good then spit itout because it can’t begood for you.
One of my favoritemoney saving systemsis, what I like to refer toas, the “double downsystem.” During weekone of the new year takea dollar and put it away.The next week, save $2.
Week 3 sees you saving$3. The simple, expo-nential saving systemadds a dollar to theamount saved eachweek. By the end of theyear you’ll have saved$1378.
One helpful suggestionwas to take some notepaper, on a weekly basiswrite down all the “good”things that happen, andput them in a jar. At theend of the year, open thejar and read all the goodthings that happened
throughout the year.Brilliant. Except thatyou have to keep thenote writing up all year.And, God forbid youhave a stretch of badluck. That could leaveyou with a half full jar.What if one of your reso-lutions was to be lesscluttered? Now you havejars of notes layingaround.
Skip the weight loss,the money saving, thenote writing. One of theeasiest resolutions is to
just, simply, be a nicerperson. Try not to com-plain. Try to be a betterneighbor. Take sometime and contact an oldfriend. There’s no costfor these resolutions andjust by trying them youare already successful.
When it comes down toresolutions sometimeswe get so caught up in
making them that weforget that making a res-olution is supposed tomake us a better person.Simply trying is half thebattle. Stop and think,“What would my mothersay?” She would say,“Should auld acquain-tance be forgot, and nev-er brought to mind?”

What would yourmother say?!
ResolutionsIn the fast paced 21st century we’ve traded
common sense for the ability to quicklylook up information on the internet.
We’ve forgotten our manners and civility.How do we get back to our roots? Can we get back?
Food for thought...
By Melissa Piper Nel-son
It is that time again –time to make our NewYear’s resolutions!These are the importantdecisions we make withstrength of conviction,deep determination andpious undertakings.
We drive to the mall topurchase exercise cloth-ing, treadmills, dietfoods, vitamins and oth-er items that will help usachieve what we have re-solved to do. We makelists, write down goalsand tell our friends andfamily how we will, thisyear, do the impossibleand yes, succeed!
That is until about ear-ly spring, when market-ing experts say the bot-tom tends to fall out ofour plans and our re-solve is not quite as de-termined. What hap-pened, we ask ourselves?When did the gruelingstuff of our convictionsmeet with the physicalchallenge of achievingour goals? Did it comewith the muscle aches,pulled tendons, achingbacks, or goals thatseemed a bit too far off?Did we bite off more thanwe could actually chew?
As the new year be-gins, we feel that familiarpull to start over, to be-gin again, and we do itwith courage! We are apeople of full expecta-tions – we can do it, we
really can. That is whatis great about makingresolutions. We are filledwith a great big dose ofpromise and the abilityto soar above all obsta-cles.
That many of us willnot achieve all we resolveto do in reality makes lit-tle difference. Maybe theencouragement and de-termination we developeach year at this time
does indeed serve agreater purpose thanlosing stubborn poundsor trying to be somethingother than what we arenow.
If we have the courageto set resolutions, we atleast, have taken a steptoward acknowledgingthat there are changeswe feel necessary tomove toward. And, thatis a beginning in itself.
Okay, for those of youwho set your resolutionsand achieve them all, wecongratulate you on ajob well done! And, forthe rest of us, mostly themasses of “under achiev-ers,” there is still time toregain that floodgate ofdetermination and beginagain! Have faith and re-solve to make new reso-lutions all year long!

WhatchamacallitsThis week’s Whatchamacallit may
be familiar as far as the item and its purpose goes, but you may not be fa-miliar with its name. This is referred to as a Housewife and is in fact a traveling sewing kit. These have been used by and given as mementos to soldiers and other military personnel for centuries, both here and abroad.In Great Britain it was called a
“Hussif” – probably a slang or con-traction of the word “Housewife”.Women would make these kits for
mending and sewing. They were usually made from scraps of materi-al, perhaps from favorite patterns or a sentimental garment. When they were made for men, the Housewife would be of sturdier, plain (unorna-mented) fabric and possibly mono-gramed or embroidered with a mas-culine motif.During the Civil War, these kits be-
came a valued possession for the soldier, as they did not have many extra items of clothing and had to mend their uniforms in the fi eld. They contained essential sew-
ing supplies such as needles, pins, thread, buttons, extra scraps of fab-ric, and possibly a thimble. Scissors (especially small ones) were not con-sidered a necessity in those days and the soldier would have had a pocket-knife handy for cutting thread and trimming material. All these items would be inserted into the pockets and then rolled up and tied with a rope or fabric tie to secure it and carried either in the pocket or haver-sack (backpack).Our example could have been made
for a man, since the outer material is plain, although the interior pockets are of a decorative material.

As midnight approaches on NewYear’s Eve, revelers anxiously antici-pate toasting the arrival of a new yearwith a glass of something bubbly. Oncethe cork is popped and the drinks arepoured, the party can truly begin. Al-though revelers may assume any fizzybeverage they are served is cham-pagne, by the true definition of the
word, they actually may be drinkingsomething else - one of many varietiesof sparkling wine.True champagneAu-thentic champagne is named afterChampagne, France, the region wherethe grapes used to make it are grown,fermented and bottled. According toEuropean law, the only labels that areallowed to include the name “Cham-
pagne” must be bottled within 100miles of this region, which is close toParis.
The taste of champagne is uniquethanks to the soil in which the grapesare grown. It is a mineral-rich soiland imparts that flavor into the bev-erage. Champagne is made from aunique base of grapes that includePinot Noir, Pinot Meunier andChardonnay grapes. Experts withWine Country also say that roughly90 percent of all blended cham-pagnes use a ratio of 2/3 red and1/3 Chardonnay mixes.
Another component that setschampagne apart is the process bywhich it is made. It is strictly con-trolled by the Appellation d'originecontrôlée. This certification dictates
how a producer may grow the grapesand how the grapes can be harvestedand processed. Champagne is pro-duced by méthode champenoise, aprocess that is said to have been in-vented by a monk named DomPerignon. This procedure involves dou-ble fermentation in bottles and createsan earthy, yeasty flavor.SparklingwinesChampagne is sparkling wine,but not all sparkling wines are cham-pagne. Other notable types ofsparkling wine include Italian Proseccoand Spanish Cava. Sparking wine isproduced in regions of France as wellas in the United States and Canada.But sparkling wine can be made justabout anywhere grapes are grown.Sparkling wines are often double-fer-
mented in steel containers instead ofbottles.
People are drawn to other sparklingwines besides champagne for variousreasons. For some, cost is a heavy con-sideration, as authentic champagnecan be considerably more expensivethan sparkling wine. In addition, somepeople find less expensive champagnesare not as palate-pleasing as sparklingwines.
Few things are more universally as-sociated with celebrations than a bot-tle of bubbly. Subtle differences setsparkling wines apart from cham-pagne, but personal preference is of-tentimes the deciding factor whenchoosing which beverage to choose fora special occasion.

Although New Year’sEve parties tend to besimilar from year to year,hosts can explore themany ways to make theircelebrations stand outfrom those of years past.This handy guide pro-vides ideas to get yourget creative juices flow-ing.
* Establish a colorpalette. Many peopleequate New Year’s Evewith the gold and silverhues of champagne.However, you can useany festive color for yourparty. Use the same col-ors on everything frominvitations to dinnerwareto take-home favors.
* Encourage guest in-put. Guests understandthe cost of hosting andthe amount of planningnecessary to throw a fes-tive party, and many will
likely reach out to askwhat they can do orbring. Figure out in ad-vance which aspects ofthe party you want yourguests to take care of soyou have a ready answerwhen the inquiries startrolling in.
* Keep musical tastesin mind. A fun partyusually includes an ar-ray of familiar songs andmusic that appeals tothe masses. When com-piling a party playlist,choose songs guests aresure to know and love.Mix these in with a few ofyour favorites. You caneven ask guests to pro-vide the names of threefavorite songs when theyRSVP.
* Dim the lights. Brightlights can make guestsfeel intimidated andawkward. Set the mood
by turning off overheadlights, opting for ambientlighting instead. For afun effect, string holidaylights around the roomor use a portable discoball to spread sparklingcolors on the floor andceiling. Candles are an-other option for intimateaffairs, but should beavoided as a safetymeasure if you’re havinga large crowd.
* Set out New Year’sfill-in-the-blank cards.Encourage guest partici-pation with an entertain-ing idea. Print out smallcards that guests have tocomplete. Phrases like,“The bad habit I want toquit is ___” or “____ wasthe silliest thing I didlast year,” can be fun todo and share. Guestscan take turns guessingwhose card is beingread.
* Have the partycatered. Unless you wantto spend the evening inand out of the kitchen,invest in catering.Guests of a late party
won’t expect a three-course meal. However,platters of sandwiches,appetizers and other lit-tle munchies will fit thebill. Remember, caterersmay book up fast thistime of year, so be sureto reserve service well inadvance of your party.
* Create a specialtydrink. In addition totoasting champagne orsparkling wine, serve as p e c i a l t ydrink cre-ation. Thiscan be a bev-erage thatties into yourcolor schemeor the themeof the party.D e s s e r tdrinks, suchas chocolatemartinis orvanilla cake-flavored vod-ka mixers,may be theright flavorfor your af-fair. As thehost, you
should remember to pro-vide non-alcoholic alter-natives as well.
* Consider more sub-stantial food after mid-night. Encourage gueststo eat more and drinkless once the clock hasstruck midnight.Casseroles and otherbaked dishes are easy tomake in advance andhave on hand. A break-fast buffet of pancakes,
toast and omelets alsowill fill guests up withsomething more sub-stantial than chips anddips.
New Year’s Eve partiesare a great way to reflecton the last year and lookforward to a new one,and hosts can take stepsto make their partiesmemorable for all theright reasons.

by Pastor Dan WestHave you ever had
trouble understandingsomeone who speakswith “flowery” language?Or maybe someone whohas a habit of exaggerat-
ing? Exaggerating is re-ally a lie used in an at-tempt to make the usersound more convincing.Do you really think any-one could be hungryenough to “eat a whole
horse”?The Apostle James
tells us in James 5:12that our yes should be“yes”, and our no, “no”.What James is saying isthat we should say whatwe mean, and meanwhat we say. EvenSolomon in Proverbs26:18, 19 says a personwho deceives his neigh-bor and says, “I was just
joking” is as dangerousas a man who shootsdeadly flaming arrows.
Paul tells us in Eph-esians 4:29 that every-thing we say to othersshould build them upand “minister grace” tothem.

Ring in the New Year with festive party ideas
10 • January 6, 2017 COUNTRY EDITOR
New Year’s celebra-tions wouldn’t be thesame without food and,of course, drinks. Butwhile you may alreadyhave the champagne onice for when the clockstrikes 12, you may notalready have plans inplace with regard tofeeding your guests asyou ring in a new year. Ifyou really want to sendthe year out in flavorfulstyle, consider the fol-lowing recipe for “Cock-tail Dates” from BobBlumer’s “Surreal Gour-met Bites: Showstoppersand ConversationStarters” (ChronicleB o o k s ) . C o c k t a i lDatesYields 12 bites12large dried Medjooldates1 4-ounce chunk
Parmigiano-Reggianocheese6slices bacon, cutin half widthwisePreheatoven to 350 F.Insert abamboo skewer or a sim-ilar facsimile in the bot-tom of the date until thepointy tip rests on thebottom of the pit. Pushthe pit out of the stemside. Reserve dates.
Using your sharpestknife, cut Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese into1/4-inch slices. Cutthose slices into 1/4-x-1-inch pieces (the result-ing 1-inch pieces shouldbe approximately thesame diameter as a pen-cil). Cut the tip of eachpiece at a 45-degree an-gle.
Leading with thepointy end, stuff a stick
of Parmigiano-Reggianocheese into the pit holeof each date.Wrap eachdate with a slice of ba-con. Set dates on a bak-ing sheet, seam-sidesdown, and skewer eachwith a toothpick to holdbacon in place.
Bake for approximate-ly 20 minutes, or untilbacon is crispy. Caution:These cocktail dates arelike molten lava whenthey come out of theoven. Let cool for a fewminutes before serving.
Note: Mejdool dates orany other dried date canusually be found inMediterranean stores orspecialty food stores.
Note: Dates can bestuffed and wrapped upto 24 hours in advance.

COUNTRY EDITOR January 6, 2017 • 11
By Terry BerksonAny day now I’m ex-
pecting a call from myson, Jonathan, tellingme he’s coming up fromNew York City to huntdeer with me. Knowingour history, I have mixedfeelings about the call. Ilike the idea that hewants to be with me,that he wants to fill in forthe loss of my life longhunting partner, Gerard,who passed away morethan twenty years ago. Itis good to know that my
son is concerned aboutmy hunting alone andthat he wants to team upwith me.
Over the years, thingsseemed to get in the wayof our hunting together.One time Jonathan ar-rived late at night afterthe long trip from thecity and in the morningslept through his alarm.I didn’t have the heart towake him, so, instead, Islipped out of the housequietly knowing that in acouple of hours he would
appear on The Point,which is one of the betterdeer watches on ourplace. From my watch, Iwould just barely be ableto make out his figurestanding next to a big oldcherry tree. Though itwas far away, it would bea comfort to know thathe was there and that wewere hunting together.That’s the way Gerardand I used to hunt, faraway from each other.Sometimes I’d be in aswamp and he’d be in
the high country. Even-tually, at a set time, we’dmeet up and do sometwo man drives.
One year, my son and Iwere all the way over toAllen’s Lake. It was stilldark when, while walk-ing in, he somehowjammed a slug into thebreach of his gun. “Howdid you do that?” Iasked.
“It just happened,” hereplied.
Maybe Jonathan didn’twant to be out therehunting, maybe he wasjust doing it for me. Itried to get the slug outbut it was forced in tightand I was worried abouttriggering the round withthe knife I was using topry it out. It put an endto the morning’s hunt.We left the woods andheaded back to town insearch of a friend whohad worked for Reming-ton for many years. Inshort order he clearedthe breach.
A month earlier, I wasin the kitchen swattingbuckwheat flies whenJonathan said, “Youdon’t have to kill them.”At the same time hequickly scooped one upfrom a windowsill,walked to the door andlet it go free outside.
“He’ll be back,” I said.“No big deal,” my son
answered.“It’s a buckwheat fly!” I
said trying to justify theslaughter.
“It’s a life,” Jonathancountered.
So far my son hasn’tshot at a deer. He’s seensome while standing onwatch but they didn’thave horns. I know hewouldn’t have troublehitting anything becausehe’s a good shot withclay birds. By now I’mconvinced that he would-n’t shoot, even if he sawa buck. He’s just beencoming up to keep mecompany. Often hishalf-hearted gesture has
cost me some good hunt-ing time. What he does-n’t know is that I don’tneed company. I’m okayhunting alone. In thesolitude of the hunt I of-ten rehash memories tomake them meaningful.It’s ironic. I don’t want tohurt his feelings bytelling him not to comeand he doesn’t want tohurt my feelings by notcoming.
This summer, together,we built a new deck onthe camp. At one pointhe grew impatient and abit irritable with my in-decision on which way toproceed. I said,“Jonathan, I’m having agood time.”
“I’m sorry, Dad,” hesaid sincerely.
“I think he realized thathe too was enjoying thework. Now that he’s aman, I’m no longer thechief and he’s no longerthe Indian. I don’t decidewhat we’re going to do.We decide what we’re go-ing to do. This takes alittle getting used to. Iknow his not shooting is-n’t a matter of nerve. Myson’s a daredevil. Sever-al years ago he droppedoff a bridge that claimedthe highest bungee-jumpin Europe. In spite ofthat I don’t expect him toreally get into hunting.But, there are some ad-ventures we can share.In mid-October we took aplunge into a coldCanadarago Lake. It wasthe first time we swam solate in the year. Now he’stalking about us joiningthe Polar Bear Club andtaking the traditionalocean dip at Coney Is-land on New Year’s Day.Well, I don’t know if I’ll beup to that but at least itdoesn’t conflict with deerseason.

Winter is the king of showmen,
Turning tree stumps into snowmen
And houses into birthday cakes
And spreading sugar over lakes.
Smooth and clean and frosty white,
Th e world looks good enough to bite.
Th at’s the season to be young,
Catching snowfl akes on your tongue.
Snow is snowy when it’s snowing,
I’m sorry it’s slushy when it’s going.
