When Cupcake A La mode’s owner and
executive pastry chef Lisa Clark made
her first foray into the world of the bak-
ing arts, her equipment consisted solely of an Easy
Bake Oven. That attempt may have been less than
a success, but nearly 30 years and three locations
later, it’s safe to say Clark has made her playtime
make-believe into a full-blown career. I popped by
her Roseville cupcakery on a recent afternoon to see
(and taste) for myself how this Midwest-based enter-
prise fared in a competitive West Coast market. After
making my selections, I settled down and gazed at
my little works of art: marshmallow Fondue and the
aptly named Chocolate Obsession. First, the Marsh-
mallow Fondue—a chocolate cupcake sprinkled with
semisweet chocolate, a swirl of marshmallow buttercream, graham cracker crumbs
and topped with a chocolate-covered graham cracker. It is, after all, summertime,
and with no campsite in my foreseeable future, this s’more-like confection was a deli-
cious substitute to my lack of available bonfires. The Chocolate Obsession featured a
chocolate cupcake topped with rich, chocolate buttercream and was covered in dark
chocolate shavings. Ah-mazing. I skipped out with my leftovers, sticky-fingered and
nostalgic for the Easy Bake Oven that dominated the imagination of my own youth,
when any and all dreams were possible. Cupcake A La mode, 1455 Eureka road, Suite 120, roseville. 916-788-1911, cupcakealamode.com.

artbeatJuly 12 – Campfire Crooners at the
Owl Club. See and hear the Crooners

The show starts at 9 p.m. For details

In Stephenie Meyer’s book New Moon,
she writes: “Sometimes, kismet hap-
pens.” And that is just what happened
when Carl Salmonsen and Tim Onorato
met for the first time. Strangers at the
time, these two accomplished musicians
were attending the same camping trip
about six years ago. Onorato arrived at the
communal campfire with a mandolin and
Salmonsen brought his guitar. They both
just started playing and the result was im-
pressive. Three years later, fate intervened
again when another chance encounter
brought keyboard player Mark Siefert on
board and they became a trio. More band
members joined along the way. “We have
a dozen plus people that come to just jam
with us sometimes,” Salmonsen says.
The award-winning Campfire Croon-
er’s tag line says it all: “Have fun. If we are
not having fun, we are doing something
wrong.” And fun is what this group and
any listeners within earshot have. Their
love for performing live really comes out
while they’re on stage. “We are a live band,”
Salmonsen explains. “Our online and studio
stuff doesn’t do us justice.” Their musical
repertoire includes covering country favor-
ites from artists like Johnny Cash and Hank
Williams, to rock and roll classics from Elton
John and the Rolling Stones and everything
in between.
Bandleader Salmonsen also writes orig-
inal songs that express the joys and pains
of everyday life. When he is finished with a
song, he gives it to the other band mem-
bers. “We then add our own flavor to it and
it becomes a ‘Crooner’ tune.” Siefert adds,
“We Croonerize it!” The group is named to
honor their first gig—around a campfire—
and what they feel is their singing style.
Life changes made the band possible.
Both Salmonsen and Siefert are now self-
employed and have time to dedicate to
their music. “It all came together,” Salmon-
sen says. “Everything aligned as our careers
changed and time loosened up.” Whether
it’s the trio or the entire band playing, the
group seems to have a psychic connection.
“We have great band ESP,” Siefert admits.
“We play what feels right and keeps the
audience engaged.”
The Auburn-based trio plays at local
farmers’ markets while the entire band per-
forms at larger venues. The acoustic nature
of the farmers’ markets is really appealing
to the musicians. “Music is a payback in
both ways,” Salmonsen says. “The audi-
ence gets to hear our music…and we get
to have fun.”
Siefert describes the group as his sec-
ond family. “Music is my meditation, my
prayer and my solace,” he shares. Salmon-
sen feels similarly. “I used to be tickled pink
to just play alone and let the stress of the
world drop way,” he explains, “[and] now I
get to play my own music with a bunch of
really talented guys.”
He hopes the music he writes and plays
will be remembered for a long time. “It is my
child, my legacy” Salmonsen says. “When
I’m gone, it is what I will leave behind.” •

Yountville is the foodie destination of wine country: French Laundry, Bouchon, Bistro Jeanty, Redd Wood, and Bottega all sit shoulder-to-shoulder in this pictur-
esque town. Oh, and there’s all that delicious wine too.
Breathtaking coastlines, jaw-dropping mountains and cities like San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland and Seattle. On paper, these define the West Coast. But it’s the hidden gems dot-ting the coastlines and tucked in the valleys that really capture the spirit and charm of the West Coast. We picked 10 of our favorite West Coast “wallflowers,” small towns with populations under 10,000 that are just waiting for someone to ask them to dance. Some are well known, others less so, but all are guaranteed to open your eyes to the riches within California, Oregon and Washington, and show you why the West Coast is the best coast.

Seventy-five miles up Highway 101 from Coos Bay, not far from rugged Cape Perpetua, is the tiny little coastal town of Yachats. Hugged by the breathtaking Or-egon coast and a stone’s throw from not one but three state parks, it’s little sur-prise that Yachats regularly makes top 10 lists of “favorite small towns.” Whether tide pooling, whale watching, hiking or just relaxing to the sounds of the ocean, the living is easy in Yachats.

What do you do with a struggling, once-proud rail and timber town nestled in the Cascades? Do what
the locals did with Leaven-worth in 1964: Take a leaf out of Solvang’s playbook and transform the town into a mock Bavarian village. Instant Alps! Located two
hours east of Seattle, Leavenworth is, after almost 50 years, still an oasis of Bavarian-themed fun…unless you hate fun. But how could you when they have a Nutcracker Museum?

Just 10 minutes up Highway 1 from Mor-ro Bay is the charming old-world beach town of Cayucos. Yes, they still exist! Simple, rustic and free of the souvenir-laden tourist traps that clog the coastline, Cayucos has kept its charm remarkably in tact. Whether it lures you in with its rolling surf or antique stores, Cayucos will catch and keep you—hook, line and sinker.

National Geographic named Oregon’s Hood River one of “100 Best Adventure Towns.” Just one hour east of Portland on the mighty Columbia River, thrill seek-ers have long been harness-ing the bracing Westerlies, pounding the flowing river and carving it up on the towering cliffs. Don’t be in-
timidated though—Hood River is also beer country. Between the beer, the food and the scenery, relaxing is in no way frowned upon in Hood River.

(whoopemuphollowcafe.com). Pacific Northwest Cajun? Laissez les bons temps rouler! Go on now and get you some, cher.
Don’t miss Jimgermanbar (jimgermanbar.

Less than an hour from Santa Barbara, Ojai is an artist colony doing double duty as a peaceful town. It’s also a hippie mec-ca. Many come to witness the rare phe-nomenon known as the “pink moment,” when the sunset turns the surrounding Topa Topa Mountains a brilliant shade of pink; tourists come in search of it and locals move here because of it. Ojai has a magnetic pull that defies cynicism.

Astoria is the grand dame of the Oregon Coast. With a rich 200-year history, the town
is the oldest American settle-ment west of the Rockies. Once a thriving industrial port, Astoria now thrives on tourism by embracing its rich maritime history, in a region so ship-wreck prone that it was known
as the “Graveyard of the Pacific” for a century. From the port and the river to the surrounding forest, Astoria’s charms are hard to resist.

to the activity along Columbia River.
An archipelago of 172 individual islands in the Puget Sound 80 miles north of Seattle, the San Juan Is-lands were voted the third best travel destination in the world by National Geographic. They recently received of-ficial status when in March President Obama signed a proclamation creating the 955-acre San Juan National Monu-ment. A mecca for whale watchers and kayaking, the San Juan Islands are an idyllic escape from mainland life. But we’re done giving you reasons. Just hop on a ferry!

lavender-festival), held July 20-21 at
Orcas Island. If you need another reason
to visit the islands, the sight of fields of
lavender in full bloom surely would be a good
enough reason!
Rest your head at Bird Rock Hotel
(birdrockhotel.com). Located in Friday

Family time…you can’t replace it! They say families who play together, STAY together! And nothing gives families the opportunity to play together more than motorsports products from Yamaha and Kawasaki!
Since April of 2003, Roseville Yamaha Kawasaki has been selling “family time.” The dealership is now celebrating its 10th year in business and sales have propelled the dealership to #2 in California (out of some 64 dealerships) and #6 in the country (out of some 1,600 dealerships) for Yamaha nationwide.
Of course, a lot has to do with the many “fun-hungry” residents of Placer County who have grown to love the dealership and have rewarded it with repeat sales over the years. But it is also Roseville Yamaha Kawasaki’s commitment to Customer Service that has made this dealership a huge success. Roseville Yamaha Kawasaki boasts some of the highest Customer Satisfaction Index rankings in the country and has received numerous such awards during its 10-year history.
Roseville Yamaha Kawasaki2014 Taylor Rd. | Roseville916-784-2444 main916-784-2440 faxwww.roseville-yamaha.com
Owners Sean and Audrey Coplen have always tried to replicate the shopping experiences of the most successful “customer-focused” retail businesses. When asked what sets them apart, Sean said “We offer Nordstrom customer service at a WalMart price. Today’s consumers are more experienced than ever and these families expect the very highest standards in Customer Service and flexibility. An example is our “no questions asked” return policy and “price match” guarantee. We know that our customers have many choices when shopping, so we remove any concerns by staying flexible with our returns and pricing to match customer needs.”
The strategy is apparently working because as many retail businesses have struggled over the past several years, Roseville Yamaha Kawasaki has begun to grow rapidly again having added two new brands (Kawasaki and Ural Motorcycles) in December of last year. Sales are currently up 15% over last year.

Pistachio-crusted Goat cheese with French Beans, radicchio, endive, red GraPes and sherry vinaiGretteFrom The New Wine Country Cook-
book: Recipes from California’s Central
Coast by Brigit Binns
(Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2013, $35)
• 1/4 cup shelled pistachios
• 1/3 cup panko (Japanese bread
crumbs) or fine dry bread crumbs
• 3 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 3 (3 1/2-oz.) rounds fresh goat cheese,
very cold, sliced crosswise through
the center to create 6 disks about 1-1/4
inches thick
sherry vinaigrette
• 2 tbsp. sherry vinegar
• 1 shallot, minced
• 1 tsp. Dijon mustard
• 1/2 tsp. fine sea salt
• 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
• 6 tbsp. pistachio oil or fruity extra-
virgin olive oil
• 6 oz. fine French green beans,
trimmed
• 1 medium head radicchio, quartered,
cored and slivered
• 2 medium heads Belgian endive,
quartered lengthwise, cores trimmed
away and slivered lengthwise
• 2 cups red grapes, halved
In a food processor, pulse the pistachios
into a powder (don’t overdo it, or you’ll
end up with nut butter). In a small,
shallow bowl, mix together the ground
pistachios and panko. Place the ol-
ive oil in another small, shallow bowl.
Gently turn each disk of goat cheese
in the olive oil to coat all sides, then
dredge through the crumb mixture,
patting the crust gently to help it
adhere. Place on a baking sheet
and repeat with the remaining
disks. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
To make the vinaigrette,
in a large bowl, combine all of
the ingredients and whisk until
smooth. Set aside.
Preheat the oven to 425 de-
grees. In a small saucepan of rap-
idly boiling, lightly salted water, Recip

dinner dateFood and Wine for the Season
blanch the green beans for 2 to 3 minutes, depending on their size. Drain immediately
and refresh under cool running water until no longer steaming. Drain on a clean kitchen
towel. Transfer the baking sheet of coated cheese to the oven and bake for 5 minutes, or
until the disks are just beginning to soften and collapse slightly.
Add the green beans, radicchio, endive and grapes to the bowl of dressing. Toss
thoroughly, until everything is evenly coated with the vinaigrette. With a metal spatula,
transfer each goat cheese round to the center of a plate. Mound the salad over and
around, and serve at once. Serves 6 as an appetizer.
KendaLL-JacKson vintner’s reserve chardonnay 2011Kendall-Jackson Chardonnay has been America’s number one selling Chardonnay
for 20 years. Whether or not you know (or think you know) what it tastes like, you
should try it again. It’s everything you’re looking for in a Chardonnay—great taste
at a nice price.
The grapes for Kendall-Jackson Vintner’s Reserve Chardonnay 2011 are grown
in cool coastal vineyards, thus making it fruit-forward, divinely complex, approach-
able and very food friendly. You’ll taste tropical flavors of pineapple, mango and pa-
paya with notes of citrus; a hint of toasted oak completes the long, lingering finish.
My customers love it and at approximately $15 a bottle, it’s a great wine for any
occasion that pairs perfectly with this month’s pistachio-crusted goat cheese salad
with sherry vinaigrette. •—richard righton

Answers by Camelia Miller
Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you?
Orchard Delights is a farm within a farm (Twin Peaks Orchards). Twin Peaks has
been in the family since 1912, and I am fourth generation. I grew up on the farm and
returned to it with my husband, Justin Miller, and my four children in 2007. We felt
that it was time to offer organic fruit to our customers. In 2008, we planted nearly
1,000 fruit trees and became certified organic with CCOF in 2011. We now have
peaches, plums, nectarines, cherries, apricots, persimmons and citrus available.
The orchard also offers a seasonal on-site farm stand where customers can come
directly to the farm and pick up fresh produce, jams, eggs, honey and more. Some
other farm events include an open house in the summer and farm-to-table dinners.
How are you involved with both the community and your customer?
In addition to running Orchard Delights, I do all of the sales and marketing for Twin
Peaks Orchards. I attend several different farmers’ markets within the community
and host an open house at the orchard, which is open to the public and includes
many local agricultural groups and businesses. This allows me to get constant feedback
from the customers directly. We also donate fruit to food banks, youth groups and other
non-profit organizations.
Where do you go when the going gets tough?
To the orchard—just to walk amongst the trees throughout the seasons is very calming—or
the dance studio.
What’s your biggest job perk?
Access to all the best local food in our beautiful area!
Where do you and your family go locally to have fun?
Usually to one of my children’s football games or daughter’s dance performances.
And finally, customer service is…?
A happy customer returning for their second box of peaches!

Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you?
I started my business in May of 2012 while I was running for Miss California USA 2012.
When a local gun shop gave me a wonderful sponsorship, I decided to get women
actively involved in self-protection and awareness. I realized very quickly that women
had no interest in the matter, so I thought to myself, “What do we, women, love?” And it
came to me—we love fashion, accessories and style! So that’s where I came up with the
concept of Safely Sexy (designer pepper sprays). I developed and manufactured the
product during the early months of 2012 and launched the product in May. We are
currently in more than 200 stores nationwide—including many locations here in
our hometown—and growing.
How are you involved with both the community and your customer?
For each pepper spray sold, Safely Sexy makes a monthly donation to Our
Wounded Warriors. I’m a strong believer in helping those who fight and help
us. We always support local events and do numerous donations—small to big—
including silent auctions, golf tournaments, Women’s Business Success, Placer
County Realtors and more.
Why is your staff the best in the business?
We are extremely hard working, strive to give the best customer service, know
what needs to get done, and handle business.
Where do you and your family go locally to have fun?
We love to stay fit, and I tend to go to California Family Fitness for great classes and
swimming; also, we like the three movie theaters around town.
And finally, customer service is…?
Making customers your family. How would your family and/or you want to be treated?
It’s going above and beyond to make someone feel that you care.

Answers by Jeff Pudewell
Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you?
After working at Cal and Stanford for 21 years, I decided to go into business for
myself. Mathnasium is a wonderful little business with an extremely effective product,
and it’s still in education.
How are you involved with both the community and your customer?
When your business involves other people’s children, you find out a lot about their
lives, and sometimes little things can make a big difference in a kid’s life.
Why is your staff the best in the business?
They are young, energetic, attractive, kind, well trained, highly skilled and very, very
smart. A basic requirement is that they be able to teach calculus on a drop-in basis.
What life accomplishments are you most proud of?
Raising a family with four amazing children, now grown, and my lovely and charming
wife of 33 years.
Who is your role model in business or in life, and why?
I am a lot like my parents—good, bad or indifferent—so I pay very close attention to what
they do, either to copy them or to do the opposite!
Where do you go when the going gets tough? Prayer.
What’s your favorite place to eat out locally?
Chantara Thai Cuisine—a beautiful restaurant by the water at Town Center in El Dorado Hills.
What’s your favorite local business other than your own?
Summit Dental in Folsom—Dr. Moussavi is the best dentist in the area.
if you could be any other profession, what would it be?
A fighter pilot.
And finally, customer service is…?
Everything. Make your business work for your customers—they’ll love you for it, and you’ll be
in business for life.
Describe your business. Did you find it, or did it find you?
We specialize in placing seniors into assisted living and residential care homes, and provid-
ing in-home care for seniors who choose to stay at home. I think we found each other.
What was the first job you ever had, and what did you learn from the experience?
My first job was working at McDonald’s in Rancho Cordova. I learned respect and respon-
sibility and how not to hurry along too fast.
How are you involved with both the community and your customer?
My company donates back to low-income seniors who have no one, and during
Christmas we adopt low-income seniors and low-income board and care homes.
Every senior gets a complete outfit and a warm blanket; as well, we donate time
at skilled nursing facilities during Halloween and carve pumpkins with them. We
give clients our undivided attention and make everyone feel special, because
they are.
Who is your role model in business or in life, and why?
My mom. Her strength as a single mom is phenomenal. She taught me to be
strong, to always count on myself, and to never give up on my dreams.
Where do you go when the going gets tough?
I don’t escape anywhere when the going gets tough; instead, it makes me be
tougher and handle the challenges set forth. I don’t know how to run away from
challenges; instead I deal with them, resolve the issues, and then move on.
What’s your favorite local business other than your own?
I love to try new restaurants, and shopping at the Fountains at Roseville’s boutiques.
And finally, customer service is…?
Very important to me. If I receive good service, I will promote that business to everyone
and become the best customer. I truly believe in treating all customers with respect.
