DECEMBER BRIDAL DIRECTORY | THE WORLD Unconventional wedding menu ideas Traditionally, one of the more memorable aspects of wedding receptions is the food. Whether it was fun, tasty or something entirely new for guests, food tends to leave a lasting impression. The experts at Boho Weddings say that, more than ever before, couples are seeking menu ideas that reflect their personalities as a couple as they seek to make a statement at their events. Celebrating with delicious, unique foods can make receptions that much more amazing. BITE-SIZED BURSTS Tapas and a movement toward small bites has started to take hold at wedding receptions. Such a choice allows guests to try many different flavors without filling up too quickly. From sliders to mini grilled cheese to soup shots to bite-sized pizzas, many of these small bites feature flavors borrowed from familiar comfort foods — just presented on a miniature scale. COMFORT STATIONS AND BARS Couples who love comfort food can put it on display with a crostini station, a mashed potato bar, a chicken and waffles station, a gourmet popcorn snack station, or a ramen noodle bar. FOOD TRUCKS/CARTS Outdoor weddings can be enhanced with the addition of trendy food trucks. These restaurants on wheels can inject burgers, sandwiches, international delights, crêpes, noodles, and so many more flavors into a wedding. HIGH-END OPTIONS Couples may want to give guests a taste of the lavish with olive oil and vinegar tasting stations, whiskey bars, French hors d’oeuvres, Kobe beef sliders, lobster tails, risotto stations, and more. CHILDHOOD FAVORITES When it comes time for dessert, some couples opt to avoid or downplay wedding cakes in favor of something simpler. A cookie-and-milk bar, doughnut holes, soft pretzel stations, pie pops, or dessert shot jars push creativity and sweetness to new levels. Do-it-yourself dessert stations, such as s’moremaking and ice cream sundae stations, also can be big hits. Couples are increasingly feeling less beholden to traditional wedding reception menus as they look to infuse their personal tastes into the foods they plan to serve their guests. Many catering managers and chefs welcome the chance to work with couples looking to create unique reception menus. DID YOU KNOW Food can make or break a wedding reception. Couples researching potential reception sites for their parties should be sure to schedule tastings and confirm how the foods will look upon being served. In addition to the taste of the food, couples may want to consider which menu items are offered — particularly those that align with the latest trends in wedding reception catering. Based on data compiled by The Knot, She Knows, Delish, and various food bloggers, the following food trends are worthy of notice. • Colorful foods: Guests are often first tempted by the appearance of foods, and bold colors can set dishes apart. • Brunch items: Recognizing that daytime weddings can be much less expensive than evening affairs, couples may want to have brunch-themed weddings, featuring omelets, pancakes, French toast, and other tasty breakfast foods. • Fancier “ordinary” fare: Although chicken fingers and meatballs aren’t normally given gourmet status, they can be dressed up and repackaged for weddings. Whole-grain breadings, Kobe beef meatballs and Asian dipping sauces give foods some flair. • Family feel: Some weddings are now served “family style” where guests can share from larger passed plates. This serves to connect everyone at the table and encourages conversation, helping to establish a warm atmosphere.

The simple answer is yes, we are all capable of being a caregiver in some way or another. Being a caregiver doesn’t necessarily mean you have to provide all the care by yourself, 24/7. Here are a few strategies to consider when deciding how to provide the best care you can. 1. Consider your own needs, abilities and limitations. a. Do you work outside the home & need to continue? b. How much care does your loved one’s health condition require (very little, some, frequent, constant)? c. Are you comfortable providing all of your loved ones care needs or are you uncomfortable with some aspects? d. Can the needs be met at home by one or two people, or a combo of in home & outside the home care, or would a facility be able to better provide the needed care? e. Do you have other family members, friends and community members who are willing to share the care, in your home? CDC National Diabetes Prevention Program Offered at Gifford Gifford Health Care’s Community Health Team is partnering with Vermont Blueprint for Health to offer the CDC-approved PreventT2 diabetes prevention program, which can prevent or delay type 2 diabetes. Prediabetes (when blood sugar levels are higher than normal) puts people at risk for developing serious health conditions, including Type 2 diabetes, stroke, and heart disease. (To see if you are at risk take the test at https://doihaveprediabetes.org/prediabetesrisk-test.html .) Trained PreventT2 facilitators can teach you about small lifestyle changes—setting • • • • • • 2. Utilize resources that are available to help with making these decisions. a. Reach out to your doctor, clergy and other family members. b. Contact area agencies to see what assistance is available (Central VT Council on Aging and Central VT Home Health & Hospice). c. Disease specific associations (Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s, etc.) can provide information and support. 3. Remember, no decision has to be final and forever. As time passes and things change, you can and should re-evaluate the situation and work with others to find new “best” solutions for you and your loved one’s needs. No two situations are alike, and no one person was ever meant to meet all of another person’s needs. There are resources in your local community that are ready and willing to share their expertise in a way that will help you. If you have questions or need more information, please email info@pibarre.giffordhealthcare.org and our caregiver support specialist will be in touch. physical exercise goals, healthy eating, managing stress, and behavior modification—that can help reverse prediabetes.
