We are asking you to send your favorite recipe with a little story<br />

behind it. Each month we will select one or two recipes to featured<br />

in our newsletters. If you have a photo of the dish or who makes it<br />

special send along with the recipe to<br />

recipes@krenek printing.com<br />

This month’s selection is Crawfish Fettuccine.<br />

I had this delicious dish when I attended my brother’s wedding in<br />

Canton, Mississippi. The event took place in September of 2004<br />

with hurricane Francis coming ashore. I almost didn’t get out of<br />

Houston because of the major rain that hit here as well as Canton.<br />

We attended a wedding luncheon in a truly old southern home<br />

where the meal was prepared by some sweet southern women.<br />

There was so much southern charm and the food was outstanding.<br />

After asking for the recipe I received it in the mail by one of those<br />

sweet ladies.<br />

With crawfish season here I thought I would share. Enjoy!<br />

IMPORTANCE OF YEARLY ASSESSMENTS<br />

OUR COMMUNITY’S FOUNDATION<br />

It’s that time of year our annual assessments will be due. These fees are<br />

very important part of the HOA’s function. In order for the association<br />

to perform the many tasks and duties for which it is responsible, the<br />

association must have operating funds. These funds are used to pay for<br />

landscape maintenance, sprinkler repairs, utilities, administration and<br />

help to keep an adequate reserve fund for major repairs or replacement<br />

of common property elements. The requirement upon an owner<br />

for paying assessments is mandatory and therefore, legally binding<br />

according to the association’s governing documents. The amount of the<br />

annual assessment is established each year by the association’s Board<br />

of Directors based upon the Board’s adoption of the annual budget. If<br />

a situation arises that you are unable to pay this assessment, please<br />

contact the Management Team as soon as possible for details about<br />

payment and collection procedures. Accounts that become delinquent<br />

may receive a fine, a late fee or other charges added to the assessment<br />

which can be more costly if not paid in a timely procedure.<br />

NATIONAL AUTISM AWARENESS MONTH<br />

The first National Autism Awareness Month was declared by the Autism Society<br />

in <strong>April</strong> 1970. The aim of this month is educate the public about autism. Autism<br />

is a complex mental condition and developmental disability, characterized by<br />

difficulties in the way a person communicates and interacts with other people.<br />

Autism can be be present from birth or form during early childhood (typically<br />

within the first three years). Autism is a lifelong developmental disability with no<br />

single known cause. People with autism are classed as having Autism Spectrum<br />

Disorder (ASD) and the terms autism and ASD are often used interchangeably.<br />

A wide spectrum disorder, people will autism have set of symptoms unique to<br />

themselves, no two people are the same.<br />

Increasing Awareness About The Common Characteristics Of Autism<br />

Whilst no two people with autism will have the same set of symptoms, there are<br />

common characteristics found in those with this complex disability. Briefly, these<br />

characteristics include:<br />

Social Skills. People with autism have problems interacting with others; autistic<br />

children do not have adequate playing and talking skills. Mild symptoms on one<br />

end of the spectrum may be displayed through clumsy behavior, being out of sync<br />

with those around them and inappropriate or offensive comments being made. At<br />

the other end of the spectrum an autistic person may not be interested in others.<br />

Empathy. Empathy is the ability to recognize and understand the feelings of<br />

another person. People with autism find it harder to show empathy to others<br />

although they can be taught to acknowledge the others feelings.<br />

Physical Contact. In some cases, autistic people do not like physical contact<br />

such as hugs, tickling or physical play with others.<br />

Sudden Changes To Their Environment. A sudden change in the surrounding<br />

environment may affect a person with autism. The could be a loud noise, a<br />

change in intensity of lighting or even a change in smell.<br />

Speech. Speech can be affected in people with autism. ‘Echolalia’ is a typical<br />

speech symptom in which the person repeats words and phrases that they hear.<br />

The speech tone of an autistic person may be monotonous. Where symptoms are<br />

more extreme, the person may not speak.<br />

Changes To Behavior and Routine. People with autism often display repetitive<br />

behavior in which they repeat the same action many times over. For example, a<br />

person with autism may repeatedly pace around a room in a certain direction.<br />

Any change to their behavior or routine can be unsettling for them. This could be<br />

a reordering of daily activities such as when a person brushes their teeth, takes a<br />

shower and has breakfast when they get up in the morning. Other characteristics<br />

of autism include an unpredictable learning rate, obsessions and physical tics.<br />

Autism Is Widespread, Awareness About This Condition Is Not<br />

In the United States, autism affects 1 in every 110 children. National Autism<br />

Awareness Month aims to make the public more aware about this widespread<br />

disability and the issues which arise in the autism community. As about 1 in<br />

150 people in America have autism, the chances are that you know someone<br />

with this disability. A better informed public will be more empathetic and<br />

supportive towards people with autism. This month is backed by the Autism<br />

Society of America ,which undertake a number of activities to raise awareness<br />

about autism. The Autism Society has local chapters throughout the United<br />

States, which hold special events throughout <strong>April</strong>. The ‘Puzzle Ribbon’ is the<br />

symbol for Autism Awareness and is promoted by the Autism Society as means of<br />

supporting awareness for autism. The Puzzle Ribbon may take the form of a pin<br />

attached to clothing, a fridge magnet or a sticker and are available to purchase<br />

from the Autism Society website. The Autism Society of America also run a year<br />

long campaign through their 1 Power 4 Autism initiative, in which people are<br />

encouraged to hold events to raise awareness and support for those affected<br />

by autism. For more information on National Autism Awareness Month visit the<br />
