Fountainhead R&M meeting The Fountainhead R&M board met
September 21, 2020 to review and count the proxies that had been
turned in for the annual meeting. There were 40 votes and that is
not a quorum, therefore the board installed June Marshall and
Benjamin Johns. Each will serve a three year term as new board
members. June will be secretary and Benjamin will oversee the
playground. We want to thank those residents that took time to turn
their proxy in and be interested in our subdivision. The meeting
adjourned at 8:15
Trick or Treating is fun.
While out there please remember to still honor the social
distancing and wear
your mask. Thank you!

Trash cans, curbsides and roofs, with all the needles on it, are
an ongoing issue.
Make sure to clean your curbsides and if you have a corner lot,
clean around the corner as well. Trash cans are to be out of sight
and not to be put out other the evening before the pick up day and
not left
out there after the pick up day.
Constables Stats Report To review the Constables Stats report
please visit our website fountainheadrandm.com. There you will find
a link on the home page.
Emergency Service
House numbers need to be bold and visible. Emergency services
depend on these numbers. Remember, you might be the one who needs
help.
To get your street numbers re-painted call 832.236.4886
ACC Concerns Clean the street curb in front of your house.
Keeping trash out of storm drain will
help prevent your street from flooding. Trash cans are to be out
of sight and put out either the evening before pick up day
or the day of it. After pick up trash cans need to be moved out
of sight again.
Please be aware on Trash Days: Our subdivision is being
frequented by flocks of big black buzzards on trash days. They like
to tear into garbage bags and are not good about cleaning up after
themselves! Please try to put all garbage in cans covered with a
lid to help with this problem.
Safety Please park in your driveways. Children at play and
people walking on the street present a safety concern.
THE ACC COMMITTEE
We thank those residents who are doing a good job caring for
their yards by mowing, edging, trimming bushes & trees and
keeping curbs clean from grass clipping and trash. There are still
some who lack this basic tenant of home ownership – taking care of
your property. Those who make an effort to maintain their yards (or
have it done) are not amused & rightfully so, when they have to
look at a yard next door or down the block that is unkempt. If your
mailbox needs repairing please do so. Please honor our Deed
Restrictions.
Loud Music in our Subdivision
Refer to your guidelines, which are online and in the green
Fountainhed Architectural Control Guideline booklet.
Speakers are not allowed outside code 3.84. If there is an issue
with loud music after 12am please call the constable at
281.376.3472.
ANY IMPROVEMENT TO YOUR HOUSE/PROPERTY NEEDS TO BE APPROVED BY
THE HOA BOARD.
PLEASE REFER TO THE ACC GUIDELINES, which you can find either on
the fountainheadrandm.com website or in your Fountainhead ACC green
booklet.

As Fire Prevention Week™ approaches, Champions ESD reminds
residents: “Serve Up Fire Safety in the Kitchen!™
Champions ESD is teaming up with the National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA)—the official sponsor of Fire Prevention Week for
more than 90 years—to promote this year’s Fire Prevention Week
campaign, “Serve Up Fire Safety in the Kitchen!” The campaign works
to educate everyone about simple but important actions they can
take to keep themselves and those around them safe. According to
NFPA, cooking is the leading cause of home fires and home fire
injuries in the United States. Almost half (44%) of reported home
fires started in the kitchen. Two-thirds (66%) of home cooking
fires start with the ignition of food or other cooking materials.
“We know cooking fires can be prevented,” said Lorraine Carli,
NFPA’s vice-president of outreach and advocacy. “Staying in the
kitchen, using a timer, and avoiding distractions such as
electronics or TV are steps everyone can take to keep families safe
in their homes.” Champions ESD encourages all residents to embrace
the 2020 Fire Prevention Week theme. “The most important step you
should take before making a meal is to “Serve Up Fire Safety in the
Kitchen!”, said Fire Chief Dan Shelor. “A cooking fire can grow
quickly. I have seen many homes damaged and people injured by fires
that could easily have been prevented.” Champions ESD wants to
share safety tips to keep you from having a cooking fire.
• Never leave cooking food unattended. Stay in the kitchen while
you are frying, grilling,or broiling. If you have to leave, even
for a short time, turn off the stove. • If you are simmering,
baking, roasting, or boiling food, check it regularly, remain in
the home while food is cooking, and use a timer to remind you that
you’re cooking. • You have to be alert when cooking. You won’t be
alert if you are sleepy, have taken medicine or drugs, or consumed
alcohol that makes you drowsy. • Always keep an oven mitt and pan
lid nearby when you’re cooking. If a small grease fire starts,
slide the lid over the pan to smother the flame. Turn off the
burner, and leave the pan covered until it is completely cool. •
Have a “kid-free zone” of at least 3 feet around the stove and
areas where hot food or drink is prepared or carried.

cooking fire prevention, visit www.fpw.org.

Pumpkin Lasagna
• Level: Easy • Total: 1 hr 25 min • Prep: 20 min • Inactive: 15
min • Cook: 50 min • Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients 1 cup pumpkin puree 1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin
olive oil 1 medium onion, chopped 4 to 6 cloves garlic, sliced 1
pound spicy Italian sausage, casings removed 1/2 cup red wine 1
28-ounce can tomato sauce 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil 1/4 cup
chopped fresh parsley 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano Kosher salt and
freshly ground pepper 1 16-ounce box lasagna noodles 1 large egg 2
1/2 cups ricotta cheese 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese 1/2 cup
shredded romano cheese
1 large zucchini, very thinly sliced
Directions 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the pumpkin
puree in a fine sieve over a bowl; set aside to drain
while you make the sauce. 2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a
medium pot over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until
translucent, 6
to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 2 more
minutes. Add the sausage and cook until brown, breaking it up with
a wooden spoon. Pour in the wine and cook until reduced by half.
Stir in the tomato sauce and herbs and bring to a simmer over
medium-low heat. Season with salt and pepper, cover and reduce the
heat to low. Simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add
the lasagna noodles and cook as the label directs. Drain and toss
with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil.
4. Mix the strained pumpkin puree with the egg in a bowl and
season with salt and pepper. In a separate bowl, mix the ricotta, 1
cup mozzarella and the romano.
5. Build your lasagna in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish: Start with
a layer of sauce, then top with a layer of noodles. Evenly spread
half of the pumpkin filling, then half of the zucchini, over the
noodles. Top with half of the cheese mixture and cover with some of
the sauce. Repeat the layers, finishing with noodles and sauce;
sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup mozzarella. Bake, uncovered, 35
to 40 minutes, or until bubbly. Let cool 15 minutes before
slicing.

Red Velvet Brains Cupcakes
• Level: Intermediate • Total: 50 min • Prep: 20 min • Inactive:
10 min • Cook: 20 min • Yield: 12 cupcakes
Ingredients
Cupcakes: 2 eggs 1 1/2 cups canola oil 1 cup buttermilk (or 1
cup milk plus 1 tablespoon lemon juice) 1 teaspoon white wine or
cider vinegar 1 teaspoon red food coloring (recommended: Select
natural food coloring) 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 1 1/3 cups
granulated sugar 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 3/4 teaspoon fine sea
salt 2 teaspoons natural cocoa powder (not Dutch-processed) 1
teaspoon baking soda
Frosting: 1 stick unsalted butter, softened 4 cups
confectioners' sugar 1/3 cup whole milk Red and black food coloring
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Salt
Directions 1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cupcake
tin with 12 paper liners (preferably silver). 2. For the cupcakes:
Crack the eggs into your mixer. Add the canola oil, buttermilk and
vinegar. Drop in the
food coloring and vanilla. Let it stir up until well mixed. 3.
Put the sugar, flour, salt, cocoa powder and baking soda in a large
bowl. Whisk together until well mixed.
Then sift this right onto a big piece of waxed paper, it makes
it easy to transport to the mixer. Make sure there are no
clumps.
4. Turn your mixture on low and slowly add the flour mixture to
the wet ingredients as it's mixing. Turn the mixer up just a bit
and combine well. Stop and scrape down the bowl.
5. Use an ice cream scoop to evenly dish the batter out into the
cupcake liners, about 3/4 full. 6. Pop the cupcakes in the oven
until a cake tester comes out nice and clean, about 20 minutes.
Allow to cool
in pan for 10 minutes, then remove and set aside to cool
completely before frosting. 7. For the frosting: Add the softened
butter and confectioners' sugar and cream together in a mixer. Add
the
milk. Stop and scrape down the bowl, getting all the
confectioners' sugar incorporated. Add a couple drops of black food
coloring and then some red food coloring. Mix in the vanilla and a
pinch of salt. Mix well.
8. Fill a pastry bag or snip the corner of a zip top bag. Fill
with the frosting. (To fill the bag easily, wrap the bag around a
cup and wrap the edges of the bag around the top to keep the bag
open while filling with frosting.)
9. Frost the cupcakes, making a little squiggly line down the
middle, and then filling in little swirls to look like the brain.
Repeat on the other side and for the rest of the cupcakes.

Deviled Chicken Lollipops
• Level: Intermediate • Total: 45 min • Prep: 20 min • Cook: 25
min • Yield: 4 to 6 hors d'oeuvres servings
Ingredients 12 chicken drumettes, skin on 1 teaspoon kosher
salt, plus to taste Freshly ground black pepper 3 slices sandwich
sourdough bread, crusts trimmed, torn into pieces 1 clove garlic,
roughly chopped 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves 2
scallions, green and white part, chopped 2 tablespoons unsalted
butter, melted 1/3 cup honey mustard
Hot sauce, optional
Directions 1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F or a convection
oven to 425 degrees F. 2. Stand a drumette on its wide end and,
holding the narrow bone at the top, use a paring knife to push
and
scrape the skin and meat downward to expose the bone and make a
plump "lollipop" of chicken at the bottom. Repeat with the
remaining drumettes. Season generously with salt and pepper and set
aside.
3. Pulse the bread in a food processor to make coarse bread
crumbs, (about 12 times). Add the garlic, parsley, scallions, 1
teaspoon salt, pepper, to taste, and continue to pulse until finely
chopped but not a paste. Transfer the mixture to a shallow bowl and
toss with melted butter.
4. Brush each drumette with some honey mustard. Then press and
roll each one in the bread crumbs to coat. Arrange the drumettes
(standing up if you can) on a rack set over a baking sheet. Roast
until chicken is cooked and the bread crumbs are golden brown and
crisp, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve drumettes hot or at room temperature
with hot sauce, if desired.
