Bloom - A Special Invitation for You
Join us on Tuesday, May 7th from 11am to
1pm at Wolfville’s Acadia Festival Theatre
for a celebration of Bloom; Wolfville’s
new identity!
“Bloom” is Wolfville’s first pan-town
identity. Every person and everything in
Wolfville seems to have or portray the
same attitude about Wolfville: the best
time to be in Wolfville is not yesterday
and not tomorrow, but today. There is an
overwhelming sense from those in Wolfville,
from college freshmen to “lifers” that the
town has matured perfectly and is ready to
be enjoyed by all.
"Bloom" is a graphic representation of a
vibrant town with a proud past and an
optimistic future. The shape is a nod to the
significance of the flower. Without a flower
there is no fruit. Without fruit, there is no
Wolfville. The colours are for earth, plants,
sea and sky.
Altogether, "Bloom" is a
confident statement that
Wolfville has arrived and is
ready to lead the Annapolis
Valley into the future.
The celebration is comprised of two key
components:
• 11am to 1pm - A Wolfville Showcase
featuring local businesses and partners
who contribute to the unique experience
that is Wolfville.
• 12:noon to 12:30pm - A thirty minute
stage performance, produced by Jeremy
Webb, designed to tell the Wolfville
brand story featuring the faces, voices,
talent and creativity of Wolfville.
Mark your calendars and join us May 7th at
11am. There will be free refreshments,
wonderful entertainment and lots of
excitement. Celebrate Wolfville with us!

May 2nd - May 16th, 2013
The Literacy Mile
The Valley Community Learning Association’s annual fundraising
event, the Literacy Mile, is Saturday, May 11th, 1-3pm at 49 Cornwallis
St., Kentville.
The VCLA is a non-profit organization that helps adults to achieve their
personal learning goals. For a small organization, the VCLA is having
a major impact on the lives and futures of many Annapolis Valley residents.
In the last year, over 350 learners participated in VCLA's diverse
programs. Some studied for their GED so they can find work, some
improved literacy skills so they can keep their job, some wanted to read
to their children, or study the Drivers Handbook to be able to get their
driver's license, or just be able to read their own mail.
The Literacy Mile event is an opportunity to raise awareness of and
support for the literacy needs of Valley residents, celebrate the accomplishments
of learners and recognize the community support, financial
and in-kind, received throughout the year. There will be hot dogs and
refreshments for sale, live music, a silent auction, a bake sale and activities
for the whole family. For further information, call 679-5252 or
866-898-7323, or email vcla@eastlink.ca.

May 2nd - May 16th, 2013
ValleyFamilyFun.ca
Growing up in the Annapolis
Valley I have had my share of
fun! People who are new to the area
(and some who are not) often ask
me what they can do with their
families in the Valley. I would rhyme
off a few ideas, usually with the
response, "How do you know??" I
just like collecting information!
My background is in public relations
and event planning. I have done a
lot of fundraising and grant writing
to help build the playgrounds in
both Port Williams and the new
KCA school in Kentville. As the CBC
Information Morning Community
Contact for Kentville it is my job to
keep an eye on the news for Kentville
and to find out what is going
on. I am a writer- for the Acadia
Alumni Bulletin, and this past fall I
researched and wrote the Kentville
ghost walks. Primarily though, I
am also a stay-at-home mom (who
doesn't stay at home!) for Daniel (6)
and Thomas (4). All of these roles
make me interested in knowing
what's going on in the Valley!
This made me realize that there
isn't one central place to look for
information and activities related
to families living in the Annapolis
Valley. There are so many awesome
things to see and do all across this
beautiful Valley that I thought I
would share the things I've discovered
with you, so you can enjoy
them too!
With thanks to my sister, Sharon,
who created the Valley Family Fun
website and my brother-in-law
Steve for the logo, we were able to
launch it a year ago, in January.
Between Facebook and the e-news
subscribers we now have over 2000
followers, and are still growing!
Thanks for sharing the word with
others!

VITIS Mobile Winery Services
VITIS Mobile Winery Services is a small business that was started Fall
2012 in the Valley by recent Acadia graduate Thomas Grégoire. Funded
by a provincial Productivity and Innovation voucher, Thomas and his
friends are looking into ways to help maintain the current boom that's
occurring in our wine industry, to solidify our international status as
an emerging major wine region. Two main areas of ongoing research
involve: the feasibility of constructing and operating a mobile wine
bottling unit through collaboration with ACSBE; and an experimental
grape cultivar trial using more natural, organic alternatives for soil
amendments, conducted here in the K.C. Irving Center. The VITIS team
will be at the Irving Centre Native Plant Sale (Saturday, 9am-12noon
in the Gardens), discussing their projects and selling organically grown
grape vines and culinary herbs. For more info: Tom Grégoire, 680 6348

10 For the week
The Grapevine
of May 2 nd , 2013 © Copyright May 2nd 2012 Rob - May Brezsny 16th, 2013
Rob Brezsny's
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Are
you afraid that you lack a crucial
skill or aptitude? Do you have a
goal that you're worried might
be impossible to achieve because
of this inadequacy? If so, now is
a good time to make plans to fill
in the gap. If you formulate such
an intention, you will attract a
benevolent push from the cosmos.
Why spend another minute
fretting about the consequences
of your ignorance when you have
more power than usual to correct
that ignorance?
TAURUS (April 20-May 20):
Imagine you're in a large room full
of costumes. It's like a masquerade
store at Halloween plus a storage
area where a theater troupe
keeps the apparel its actors use to
stage a wide variety of historical
plays. You have free reign here.
You can try on different masks
and wigs and disguises and getups.
You can envision yourself
living in different eras as various
characters. If you like, you can
even go out into the world
wearing your alternate identities.
Try this exercise, Taurus. It'll
stimulate good ideas about some
new self-images you might want
to play with in real life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Ray
LaMontagne sings these lyrics in
his tune "Empty": "I looked my
demons in the eyes. Laid bare my
chest and said, 'Do your best to
destroy me. I've been to hell and
back so many times, I must admit
you kind of bore me.'" I wouldn't
be opposed to you delivering a
message like that to your own
demons, Gemini -- with one
caveat: Leave out the "Do your
best to destroy me" part. Simply
peer into the glazed gaze of those
shabby demons and say, "You bore
me and I'm done with you. Byebye."
And then walk away from
them for good.
CANCER (June 21-July 22):
I know a devotee of Tibetan
Buddhism who got an unexpected
message from her teacher. He
told her she has made such
exemplary progress in her quest
for enlightenment that she has
earned the ultimate reward.
When she dies many years from
now, the teacher said, she will
enter nirvana! She will have no
further karmic obligation
to reincarnate into a new
body in the future, and will be
forever excused from the struggle
of living in the material world.
Although her teacher meant
this to be good news, she was
heartbroken. She wants to keep
reincarnating. Her joyous passion
is to help relieve the suffering of
her fellow humans. Can you guess
what sign she is? Yes: a Cancerian.
Like her, many of you are flirting
with an odd and challenging
choice between selfishness and
selflessness.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A lawyer
named John Keogh filed an
application with the Australian
Patent Office. It was for a "circular
transportation facilitation device."
His claim was approved. He thus
became the owner of the world's
first and only patent for the wheel.
So far, he has not tried to collect
royalties from anyone who's using
wheels. I nominate him to be your
role model, Leo. May he inspire
you to stamp your personal mark
on a universal archetype or put
your unique spin on something
everyone knows and loves.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):
This may be the best week in a
long time to practice the art of
crazy wisdom. And what is crazy
wisdom? Here's how novelist Tom
Robbins described it to Shambhala
Sun: It's "a philosophical
worldview that recommends
swimming against the tide,
cheerfully seizing the short end
of the stick, embracing insecurity,
honoring paradox, courting the
unexpected, celebrating the
unfamiliar, shunning orthodoxy,
volunteering for tasks nobody else
wants or dares to do, and breaking
taboos in order to destroy their
power. It’s the wisdom of those
who turn the tables on despair by
lampooning it, and who neither
seek authority nor submit to it."
And why should you do any of that
weird stuff? Robbins: "To enlarge
the soul, light up the brain, and
liberate the spirit."
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): "Why
should we honor those that die
upon the field of battle?" asked
Irish poet William Butler Yeats.
"A man may show as reckless a
courage in entering into the abyss
of himself." A woman may show
similar bravery, of course. In my
astrological opinion, that's the
noble adventure beckoning to
A bsolute NonScents
ECONOMY SOCIETY ENVIRONMENT
you, Libra: a dive into the depths
of your inner workings. I hope
that's the direction you go; I hope
you don't take your stouthearted
struggle out into the world around
you. All the best action will be
happening in that fertile hub
known as your "soul."
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):
Historical records suggest that
ancient Greek philosopher
Democritus went blind late in his
life. There are different stories
about why. According to one
account, he intentionally did it to
himself by gazing too long into the
sun. That was his perverse way of
solving a vexing problem: It freed
him from the torment of having
to look upon gorgeous women
who were no longer interested in
or available to him because of his
advanced age. I hope you won't
do anything like that, Scorpio.
In fact, I suggest you take the
opposite approach: Keep your
attention focused on things that
stir your deep attraction, even if
you think you can't have them for
your own. Valuable lessons and
unexpected rewards will emerge
from such efforts.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-
Dec. 21): Search your memory,
Sagittarius, and recall a time when
you pushed yourself to your limits
as you labored over a task you
cared about very much. At that
time, you worked with extreme
focus and intensity. You were
rarely bored and never resentful
about the enormous effort
you had to expend. You loved
throwing yourself into this test of
willpower, which stretched your
resourcefulness and compelled
you to grow new capacities. What
was that epic breakthrough in
your past? Once you know, move
on to your next exercise: Imagine
a new assignment that fits this
description, and make plans to
bring it into your life in the near
future.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19): Nairobi is Kenya's capital
and home of over three million
urbanites. A few minutes' drive
from the city center, there's a
45-square-mile national park
teeming with wildlife. Against a
backdrop of skyscrapers, rhinos
and giraffes graze. Lions and
cheetahs pounce. Wildebeests
roam and hyenas skulk. I suggest
you borrow the spirit of that
arrangement and invoke it in your
own life. In other words, be highly
civilized and smartly sophisticated
part of the time; be wild and free
the rest of the time. And be ready
to go back and forth between the
two modes with grace and ease.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):
In the wild, a tiger's diet consists
entirely of meat. The big cat loves
to feast on deer and wild boar, and
eats a variety of other animals,
too. The hunt is always solitary,
never done in collaborative
groups. That's why the creature's
success rate is so low. A tiger
snags the prey it's seeking only
about five percent of the time. It
sometimes has to wait two weeks
between meals. Nevertheless, a
tiger rarely starves. When it gets
what it's after, it can devour 75
pounds of food in one sitting.
According to my astrological
analysis, Aquarius, you're like a
tiger these days. You haven't had
a lot of lucky strikes lately, but
I suspect you will soon hit the
jackpot.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The
French word Flaneur is a meme
that refers to a person who strolls
around the city at a leisurely pace,
exploring whatever captivates
her imagination. To the casual
observer, the Flaneur may seem to
be a lazy time-waster with nothing
important to do. But she is in fact
motivated by one of the noblest
emotions -- pure curiosity -- and is
engaged in a quest to attract novel
experiences, arouse fresh insights,
and seek new meaning. Sound
fun? Well, congratulations, Pisces,
because you have been selected as
the Flaming Flaneur of the Zodiac
for the next two weeks. Get out
there and meander!

11 The Grapevine
May 2nd - May 16th, 2013
MIKE UNCORKED:
have said it many times before
I that the talent in this area is
mind-boggling! I have worked
with singers, dancers, actors,
costume makers, production
designers, writers and directors
etc. during a lot of productions
and it blows me away what the
Valley has to offer. And if you’ve
seen some of the shows I’ve been
in, you’ll know that the bulk of
the group I just mentioned are
ages 6-16! That’s right; they’re
kids and young adults. Many of
the faces you’ve seen in Fezziwig
shows, Stage Prophet Productions
and Wolfville School plays
are gracing the stage again in
two upcoming shows that I think
everyone should attend.
The first is an original production
called ‘The Stories You Won’t
Hear’ being performed at Horton
High School May 9 th -11 th . 'The
Stories You Won't Hear' is created
by past and present students of
Wolfville Middle School. Featuring
music from the hit television
show ’Glee’, the students bring
to the stage; skits, monologues,
songs, and stories about what it's
really like to be in middle school.
Touching, funny, and entertaining,
the show is sure to please
with tales of love and heartache,
a little sadness and confusion but
lots of joy and excitement, with
some of the top pop songs on the
radio today. Performances will be
at Horton High School Performance
Centre: Thursday, May 9,
Friday, May 10 & Saturday, May
11 at 7pm. And admission is only
$5.00. You can purchase tickets at
the door or call 690-7260 or email
wolfvilleschoolstories@gmail.com.
Should be a great show!
And speaking of the Stage
Prophets, who hasn’t heard about
9701 Commercial St. Greenwich
There are Children
EVERYWHERE!!
their upcoming production of
Peter Pan? It’s getting so much
advanced buzz and for good
reason. This timeless tale about
the boy who never grew up and
his adventures in Neverland is
sure to be a huge production with
stimulating performances and the
same grandeur of previous year’s
offerings from Stage prophets.
With the help of a professional
flying company, the Stage Prophets’
Peter Pan will really fly! This is
a first in the Valley and a first for
an amateur theatre company in
Nova Scotia. The Stage Prophets
are also very excited to partner
with our First Nation communities
to present this early 20th
century story with a respectful
reflection of their culture.
So mark your calendars to see this
impressive event with beautiful
displays of costumes; and
creative set designs. I can’t wait!
The production runs Thursday
May 16 th -Sunday May 19 th with
evening performances at 7pm
with matinees Saturday and Sunday
at 2pm. Tickets are $15.00
and available at Box of Delights
in Wolfville, Designer Cafe in
Kentville or M&M Meats in New
Minas. Enjoy the shows!

Creamy Carrot Soup with Lemongrass
& Fiddleheads - Dan Collins, Chef @ Art Can Cafe, Canning
Spring is finally cooperating with the early season harvest that nature is
kind enough to provide. Although most of these are ephemeral and last
a very short time, it is a sure sign of the beginning of the bounty of local
product which we are blessed with.
One of these celebrated items is the fiddlehead fern which is mostly
gathered wild from forest floors, setting it apart from easy to cultivate and
harvest garden offerings. In this recipe, fiddleheads serve mainly as the
garnish on this wonderful soup, offering a lovely contrast in colour and
texture, but more can be added to the soup if desired.
With warmer weather upon us, this soup is delicious chilled, but can also be
heated for a chilly or damp day. Fiddleheads are best when soaked in salted
water, then steamed until completely tender, about 12 to 15 minutes.
• 3 medium carrots, peeled and chopped 1 inch long
• 2 inch piece of lemongrass, minced finely
• 3 1/2 cups fresh carrot juice
• 1 tsp butter
• 1 tsp honey
• pinch curry powder
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• salt
• fresh ground white pepper
• 1/2 cup steamed fiddleheads
• kalonji seeds (available at East Indian grocery on Robie St, Hfx.)
• mousse
• 1/4 cup creme fraiche
• sprig of tarragon, minced
Combine carrots, lemongrass, 2 cups carrot juice, butter, honey and curry.
Simmer over medium heat, then reduce to low simmer until the liquid is
mostly gone and carrots are tender, about one hour.
Add cream, increase heat for 3 minutes, then puree with remaining 1 1/2
cups carrot juice in a blender, then pass through a strainer, season to taste,
refridgerate.
Ladel soup into chilled bowls, top with mousse, a few fiddleheads, and a
pinch of kalonji seeds. Enjoy the taste of spring!

Who's Who: Liana vanderhof-Rhodenizer: Picture Perfect!
What a fun and random life
I lead sometimes. I was
walking down Central Avenue
a few weeks ago and ran into a
friend of mine who was taking
part in a photo shoot. I pulled her
right out of a shot so I could hug
her and have a reunion of sorts…
the photographer gave me a weird
once over and I apologized and
went on my merry way, thinking
I would never have the chance to
make it up to her for disrupting
her shoot. Well, ladies and
gentleman, that photographer
was Liana vanderhof-Rhodenizer,
and here’s me making it up to her.
Liana grew up in the beautiful
Annapolis Valley; she’s married
and has two adorable children (9
year old Kalana and 14 month old
baby boy Hudson).
Liana works full time at Holland
Home Leisure in New Minas, as
manager of the Hot Tub and Patio
Furniture Divisions. This has been
her “day job” for the last eight
years and she loves the work she
does.
I know what you’re saying:
“Wait a minute Mike, wasn’t
she a photographer in the first
paragraph?” Well yes she IS, just
hold your horses! Liana is also a
wonderful photographer. She has
always had a love for photography
and a true passion for the way a
camera can capture a moment and
make it last forever.
Liana says “I am a strong believer
in following dreams, making
time for yourself and doing what
you love! Photography started
as a hobby, and it turned into a
passion and the passion turned
into L. Rhodenizer Photography!”
love her work. Brace yourselves
everyone, the photos of the
children are priceless!
When asked what she loves
most about this area Liana
replied “The Annapolis Valley is
a photographer's dream, with so
many hidden beautiful spots to
uncover, how could I not love it
here”
Liana plans to keep growing her
business and learning more about
the art of photography and seeing
where it takes her. She is thrilled
to be able to meet so many people
(politely or otherwise) and have

Suspended Coffees at Kate's Pantry
Kate Adams and her customers are implementing the concept of
suspended coffees at her Berwick fair trade coffee shop. Not a new
idea, but one that is enjoying a resurgence, suspended coffees are
purchased by customers for Kate to hold for someone who cannot
afford a coffee that day. So I might buy my own yummy North
Mountain java and add a suspended coffee to my bill for someone
else later in the day. Kate often gives free coffees and this is a way
for her customers to share in the generosity. Suspended coffees are
just one of many ways that people in the Berwick area show that
they care. Perhaps all of our coffee shops could implement this easy
idea.
