Do you know what the phrase “dog days of summer” actually<br />
means? I always assumed it referred to the sticky, sweltering<br />
days of the season when man’s best friend lethargically lazes<br />
around panting in the heat. Silly me. According to Wikipedia,<br />
the expression has nothing to do with Fido and was originally<br />
coined by ancient Greeks and Romans when the “dog star,” Sirius,<br />
shined the brightest—typically in late <strong>July</strong>—which they believed,<br />
when combined with the sun’s intensity, caused blisteringly hot<br />
summer temps. You learn something new every day, right?<br />
I still prefer my interpretation (astrology’s never been my strong suit) so I find it particularly<br />
fitting that this month’s issue is dedicated to actual dogs—and all our other beloved furry<br />
and feathered friends—that we<br />
lovingly call family.<br />
In addition to an adorable<br />
pictorial of local “People and Their<br />
Pets” (page 49), which features<br />
in-depth “tails” about three<br />
particularly top dogs—from Eros, a<br />
justice-seeking K9 at the Roseville<br />
Police Department; to a mochacolored<br />
Labradoodle, Max, who<br />
works as a therapy pup at Marshall<br />
Medical Center; and the first-ever<br />
certified dual purpose running<br />
guide dog in the U.S., Klinger—we<br />
also have an article on “9 Ways<br />
“The world<br />
would be a<br />
nicer place<br />
if everyone<br />
had the ability<br />
to love as<br />
unconditionally<br />
as a dog.”—<br />
M.K. Clinton<br />
Animals Help Heal Us” in Health & Wellness (page 36), “5 Stylish<br />
Pet-Proof Solutions” to protect your pad against our dear animals’<br />
antics in Home Design (page 40), and a rundown of “Pet Products<br />
We Love” (all available at area mom-and-pop shops) in Swag<br />
(page 42). Whether you’re a pet parent or not, and whether you<br />
fancy felines or prefer puppies, there’s plenty of cuteness and<br />
interesting info to go ’round.<br />
Animals aside, we have much more in store too. For those<br />
nearing or who have reached retirement, I recommend reading<br />
“Senior Center Activities for All” (page 62). You might be surprised<br />
to learn about the array of offerings available, which definitely<br />
go beyond bingo (think clogging, crafts, computer classes, monthly movies, and so much more).<br />
My grandma—who turns 97 next month(!)—is living proof that staying active and connected to<br />
community are key components to aging gracefully.<br />
<strong>July</strong> also happens to be National Grilling and Ice Cream Month and—with Independence Day,<br />
and blazing temps, upon us—it’s a prime time to indulge in both. Invite your friends, neighbors,<br />
and family over for a backyard BBQ starring juicy, build-your-own cheeseburgers with homemade<br />
pickles (see page 78 for the recipe) and make sure to save room for one of our six frozen favorites<br />
in “The Cool List” on page 72.<br />
As we journey into the upcoming “dog days,” I hope you find somewhere nice and cool to flip<br />
through the pet-filled pages of this issue. Cheers!<br />

What’s the most<br />
mischievous thing<br />
your pet has ever<br />
done?<br />
“Though not necessarily<br />
mischievous, Mildred gets<br />
right up behind me and falls<br />
asleep on my back. It warms<br />
my heart (and back) every<br />
time she does it. I just have<br />
to ignore the drool.”—Wendy<br />
Sipple<br />
“I had a clepto cat who would<br />
steal all kinds of things,<br />
especially my jewelry. When<br />
I moved my sofa one day, I<br />
found a stash of everything<br />
she had stolen over the years<br />
in a neat pile.”—Bettie Grijalva<br />
“Before heading on a three-hour car<br />
ride home, Sadie rolled in (and<br />
ingested) what we concluded<br />
was a dead animal. Frustrated,<br />
we quickly washed her off and<br />
loaded her in the bed of the<br />
truck; upon arriving home,<br />
we discovered she had been<br />
expelling from both ends—<br />
poor dog. Thanks for cleaning it<br />
up, Dad!”—Emily Peter<br />
“My first dog got into the garage<br />
and ate an entire tube of<br />
bicycle lubricating grease.<br />
After visiting the vet—and<br />
spending a good chunk of<br />
change—he survived.”—Reg<br />
Holliday<br />
“Pooped…all over our carpeted<br />
bedroom floor. Poor Leia had<br />
an upset tummy. We woke<br />
up in the middle of the night<br />
to cacophonous sounds<br />
and pungent smells.”—Tara<br />
Mendanha<br />

ask the experts<br />
What are the developmental<br />
benefits of enrolling my child into<br />
an aquatics camp?<br />
Aquatics camps teach life—and lifesaving—skills while encouraging<br />
positive and fun socialization. What’s more, they enhance<br />
independence, help increase self-confidence, and teach your child to<br />
respect the environment and nature (including the parts that aren’t<br />
so kind like poison oak, hypothermia, river currents, rattlesnakes,<br />
etc.). Ultimately, your child will create unforgettable memories while<br />
making new friends and learning skills that a camper can use for the<br />
rest of their life.<br />

At what age<br />
should I enroll<br />
my child into<br />
pre-K?<br />
We believe that education can<br />
start as early as 18 months, as<br />
toddler programs offer children<br />
an environment where he/she<br />
can learn to socialize and use<br />
large and small motor skills, as<br />
well as be exposed to sensory<br />
building, music enrichment,<br />
and movement. The younger<br />
you can introduce your child to<br />
these things, the better prepared he/she will be. With that, a pre-K<br />
classroom usually starts at the age of four, where children learn to<br />
expand their learning through name writing, counting, math skills,<br />
and phonics. It’s important to find a pre-k that offers extracurricular<br />
activities—such as Spanish, ballet, and soccer—to further enhance<br />
their growth and abilities.<br />

WHEELS<br />
The iconic <strong>2018</strong> Ford<br />
Mustang is 54 years old.<br />
Despite its age, the winning<br />
formula for this “muscle car”<br />
is basically unchanged—<br />
it’s still fun, fast, affordable, and sexy—with way more<br />
sophistication than when it was first introduced. Thanks to a<br />
purposeful new redesign three years ago, there’s little doubt<br />
that the automobile has picked up some additional admirers.<br />

“GLAMP” WITH STYLE<br />
Towering pines, dramatic coastline, and a gently lapping<br />
river are all easily accessible when staying at Mendocino<br />
Grove. The canine- and kid-friendly “campground”—<br />
sited 1/4 mile south of<br />
Mendocino proper—<br />
boasts safari-style<br />
tents replete with real<br />
(and super cozy) beds,<br />
warm down comforters,<br />
lanterns, cotton towels,<br />
and electricity. Steamy<br />
showers stocked with<br />
organic bath products, on-demand hot water and tea,<br />
a private picnic table and fire pit at each site, gas grills,<br />
and complimentary breakfast bar, plus weekend yoga<br />
and guided nature walks are all part of the amenities.<br />
It’s essentially “camping made comfy” and the ideal<br />
destination for people who appreciate nature with<br />
a touch of class. For a full review about our recent<br />
experience, including must-do activities in the area, head<br />

Q &A<br />
WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE TO YOUR<br />
YOUNGER SELF?<br />
It’s OK to focus on your career, but don’t<br />
forget that family comes first.<br />
WHAT COMES TO YOU NATURALLY?<br />
I’m a take-charge person. If no one steps<br />
up to take care of business, I’ll do it without<br />
being asked.<br />
ARE YOU HIGH OR LOW MAINTENANCE?<br />
Definitely high maintenance. I like to keep<br />
busy and am constantly on the go, which<br />
can put those around me in stressful<br />
situations.<br />
FAVORITE HUMANITARIAN CAUSE?<br />
As a Rotarian, I’m grateful to have the<br />
opportunity to be a part of an organization<br />
that helps people with local and<br />
international projects.<br />
Rosario<br />
Rodriguez<br />
BEST WORDS OF WISDOM YOU’VE<br />
RECEIVED?<br />
My father was a man of few words, but<br />
through his actions he spoke to me about<br />
integrity, hard work, accountability, and<br />
being responsible. These are principles<br />
that have helped me through life’s journey.<br />
WHAT’S NEXT?<br />
Writing is my outlet, so possibly to write<br />
a book.<br />
<strong>Folsom</strong> resident Rosario<br />
Rodriguez still looks back<br />
fondly on childhood<br />
summers in Mexico, making<br />
tortillas by hand with her<br />
aunts and grandmothers. She<br />
grew up surrounded by foodie culture in San<br />
Francisco, but she attributes her love of cooking<br />
and good food to the rich flavors of her youth.<br />
Two years ago, she opened Sutter Street<br />
Taqueria, making the leap from successful<br />
health care administrator to small business<br />
owner. Although it was a frightening prospect<br />
at first, it was her parents’ absolute faith in her<br />
that enabled the entrepreneur to pursue her<br />
dream. “I went to them and said, ‘Hey, I want<br />
to take my lifelong knowledge of Mexican food<br />
and open a restaurant,’” she recalls. “It took<br />
my father five seconds to say, ‘sure,’ and give<br />
me the money.”<br />
Since then, Rodriguez has built a reputation<br />
around being a hard worker, once putting in 240<br />
days straight without any time off. “My friends<br />
had to force me to go on vacation,” she says<br />
with a laugh. She also does what she can to give<br />
back, by being a Rotarian, board member for<br />
the <strong>Folsom</strong> Chamber of Commerce and Twin<br />
Lakes Food Bank, and a commissioner for the<br />
Historic <strong>Folsom</strong> Commission. In addition, she<br />
regularly donates food to area nonprofits, even<br />
establishing a “suspended meal initiative” at<br />
the taqueria, where diners can purchase a<br />
meal for those who are hungry and may be<br />
experiencing financial difficulties. For her<br />
efforts, she received the 6th Assembly District’s<br />
Woman of the Year Award for <strong>2018</strong>. “When you<br />
invest back in community, it builds a stronger<br />
area,” Rodriguez shares. “It’s why <strong>Folsom</strong> is<br />
such an attractive place to live.”<br />

Secret Menu Items<br />
Fancy a covert mission? We do, which is why we went undercover to uncover the following secret and off-menu<br />
items. Go now, on your own mission to sample these delicacies—no codenames, disguises, or secret handshakes<br />
required. In no particular order…<br />
The 10 Spot<br />
Julian's Pâtisserie and Café in<br />
<strong>Folsom</strong> has some sweet surprises up<br />
its sleeve. Firstly, all of their crêpes are<br />
customizable, so instead of getting their<br />
raspberry Nutella crêpe with candied<br />
almonds, you can go crazy and change it to<br />
strawberries, bananas, and whipped cream<br />
instead. And if you’re crazier still, try the<br />
awesome Frozen Hot Chocolate, which<br />
comes in traditional, caramel, and Oreo<br />
flavors. julianscafe.com<br />
La Provence Restaurant and<br />
Terrace in Roseville has a secret tapas<br />
menu and<br />
weekly<br />
“surprise”<br />
specials menu<br />
that are only<br />
available on<br />
Fridays in<br />
their lounge.<br />
Past items<br />
have included<br />
Deviled Eggs<br />
and Pork Belly with gherkins, croissant<br />
crostini, frisée, and maple sriracha. Don’t<br />
think that’s going to stay a secret much<br />
longer! laprovenceroseville.com<br />
Ask for the Penne<br />
Toscana next time<br />
you visit Vaiano<br />
Tratorria in<br />
Granite Bay.<br />
It begins<br />
with the<br />
browning of<br />
crumbled<br />
sausage,<br />
before red<br />
onions<br />
and red wine<br />
are added to the<br />
mix, after which their<br />
by TARA MENDANHA<br />
homemade meat sauce is incorporated<br />
and tossed with penne before folding<br />
in fresh spinach. Salivating yet? We are.<br />
vaianotrattoria.com<br />
Roll into <strong>Folsom</strong>’s Hisui Sushi and ask for<br />
the Yost Roll that boasts shrimp tempura,<br />
spicy tuna, crab, fried asparagus, avocado,<br />
fresh ahi tuna, mushrooms, jalapeños,<br />
tobiko, spicy garlic aioli, and unagi sauce.<br />
Now that’s one satisfying mouthful.<br />
hisuisushi.com<br />
Citrus Toro is an über delicious chef’s special<br />
that’s available at Mikuni in Fair Oaks.<br />
Chef Ule serves white tuna toro sashimi<br />
smeared with garlic, garnished with orange<br />
slices, green onions, and chili powder before<br />
being delicately finished with a ponzu and<br />
miso dressing. Talk about a feast for the<br />
senses. mikunisushi.com<br />
Yes, Wally’s Pizza Bar in Cameron<br />
Park has some amazing pizzas—including<br />
their rotating pie-of-the-week (Latin Luau,<br />
Chicken Chili Verde, St. Patrick’s, etc.). But<br />
what we spied with our greedy eyes was<br />
the Sriracha Breakfast Potatoes that<br />
are served for breakfast on weekends.<br />
Their already amazing breakfast potatoes<br />
are tossed in garlic butter and sriracha<br />
seasoning along with peppers and<br />
onions. It’s the perfect wake-up<br />
call! wallyspizzabar.com<br />
Sienna has not one,<br />
not two, but a host of<br />
secret menu options<br />
to choose from.<br />
Think Skirt Steak<br />
Risotto (pictured),<br />
blackened<br />
prawn salad,<br />
and a Philly-style<br />
French dip. Not<br />
to be outdone,<br />
their sister<br />
establishment,<br />
Land Ocean, offers<br />
their own menu of crab<br />
cake sliders, chicken<br />
teriyaki over rice, and The<br />
Lavish chicken sandwich.<br />

The Cali Hot Pastrami<br />
at Guy’s for<br />
Lunch in<br />
Roseville has<br />
been named<br />
the Cadillac of<br />
sandwiches—<br />
one customer<br />
even jokingly<br />
calls it the Tesla.<br />
The tender-spicy<br />
pastrami comes with<br />
ripe, smooth avocado,<br />
crispy bacon, and juicy tomato slices with<br />
homemade smoky jalapeño mustard and<br />
a bit of mayonnaise—all between a freshout-of-the-oven<br />
soft sourdough roll.<br />
Acquaint yourself with this beauty the next<br />
time you visit Guy’s. guysforlunch.com<br />
Visconti’s Ristorante in <strong>Folsom</strong> offers<br />
meatballs that can be added to any menu<br />
item or as a side option to any dish. What<br />
many don't know about their Baked<br />
Meatballs is that they’re twice baked,<br />
which includes being topped with<br />
parmesan and mozzarella then<br />
baked in the oven until sinfully<br />
melty. Have them on a sandwich,<br />
with spaghetti or plain, in all their<br />
delicious glory. viscontisristorante.<br />
com<br />
Fusion Taps is <strong>Folsom</strong>’s newest<br />
gastropub. Their off-menu Tilapia Larb<br />
is an authentic Thai dish that would<br />
make any fish lover happy. Marinated<br />
with fresh lime juice, tossed in herbs like<br />
lemongrass, mint, cilantro, and galangal,<br />
along with roasted rice powder and chili,<br />
this delicacy is served with lettuce and<br />
cucumbers and makes for a healthy<br />
dining option. fusiontaps.com<br />

I constantly daydreamed [about being] an artist and a writer and would fantasize about exhibitions and art shows,<br />
publishing books, and being besieged by the world of ink and color. Nevertheless, I drew and painted consistently, had<br />
my parents adorn all the walls of our house with my art, and requested art supplies and drawing books as gifts. They<br />
considered me unstoppable and stubborn but also recognized that my creative spirit couldn’t be bottled for long.<br />
HLB: DO YOU HAVE ANY ADVICE FOR ARTISTS JUST STARTING OUT?<br />
KC: It takes courage, because oftentimes people think they have to be talented to begin in the first place, and that’s not<br />
true. All you need is interest and patience to learn a new skill. It’s best to have an open mind and explore the myriad of<br />
possibilities that creativity renders in terms of style, complexity, content, or composition. For those exploring painting<br />
for the first time, I can’t stress enough the importance of observation and drawing skills. There’s no such thing as a bad<br />
drawing or an ugly painting—it’s all about getting mileage on the canvas. Most importantly, stay curious and open to<br />
your unique instinct and inner voice—it can be your best friend.<br />

KC: I’ve noticed there aren’t too many young people who attempt to join the art community, including art or poetry<br />

and explore their creative spirit. It’s good to have a hobby or develop a new skill at every stage of your life; in the end, it’s<br />
truly about being centered and striking that balance. kamlikachandla.com<br />

9 Ways Animals<br />
Help Heal Us<br />
by KOURTNEY JASON<br />
About 95 percent of pet owners consider their furry friends to be<br />
family members, and about half will buy them a birthday or holiday<br />
present this year, according to a Harris Poll. But did you know these<br />
relationships also have positive effects on your physical and mental<br />
health? Read on for the myriad of ways pets help humans heal.<br />
1 The Feeling is Mutual<br />
“There have been studies [done proving that] the benefits are mutual, and<br />
the relationship is essential to the well-being of both the human and the animal,”<br />
says Wendy Goossen, CTR, director of cancer services at Marshall Medical Center.<br />
“Studies have shown that oxytocin levels are increased in dogs when they interact<br />
with their owner as opposed to strangers.”<br />
2 Unconditional Love<br />
Something that makes the human-animal relationship so easy is that it’s<br />
not complicated, says Jeremy Ernst, DO, psychiatrist at Marshall Medical Center.<br />

“It allows people to have nonjudgmental<br />
love,” he continues.<br />
3 Let’s Get Physical<br />
Susan Garlinghouse, DVM, a<br />
veterinarian at Goldorado Animal Hospital<br />
in Cameron Park, says dog owners, on<br />
average, tend to walk almost twice as<br />
much per week as non-dog owners, and<br />
are 54 percent more likely to meet the<br />
recommended levels of physical exercise.<br />
4 Allergy Alleviation<br />
Having a family pet will benefit the<br />
health of your kids, too. “In young families,<br />
according to a study published in Clinical & Experimental Allergy, children exposed to pets in<br />
their first year are less likely to suffer from allergies and eczema as adults,” Garlinghouse says.<br />
5 Bonded for Life<br />
According to Garlinghouse, “Studies have indicated that young adults with deep<br />
bonds to a pet feel more connected in relationships and to their communities, and are<br />
more likely to take on leadership roles than those without pets.”<br />
6 No Judgement Zone<br />
Garlinghouse says pets don’t care how you look, how much money you make, or what<br />
kind of car you drive—they’re just happy to be with you and to have your attention. “A good<br />
portion of these feelings of higher self-esteem probably stem from that. It’s hard not to feel<br />
better about yourself when your dog thinks you’re terrific just the way you are,” she says.<br />
7 Creature Comforts<br />
And it’s not just dogs that help our well-being. “A lot of these benefits come from<br />
caring for almost any pet,” Garlinghouse says. “In one study, stressed adults decreased<br />
their anxiety levels when they stroked a rabbit or a turtle but not when they handled a<br />
toy rabbit or turtle.”<br />
8 In Sickness and in Health<br />
Facility dogs Henry, Penny, Marty, Feather, and Glimmer are graduates of Canine<br />
Companions for Independence who, along with child life specialists at Sutter Children’s<br />
Center, help make life in the hospital a little less stressful by providing joy and comfort<br />
to pediatric patients and their families. [Studies show that] pain reduction is four times<br />
greater in children undergoing animal-assisted therapy compared to those relaxing for 15<br />
minutes,” says Amy Medovoy, child life coordinator at Sutter Medical Center in Sacramento.<br />
“Patients feel less lonely, less depressed, and enjoy the change in routine. For inpatient<br />
adolescents, the presence of a dog on the unit improve outcomes by redefining the inpatient<br />
environment and providing unconditional acceptance.”<br />
9 Mood Booster<br />
Forming an attachment to animals is a combination of both biological and social needs.<br />
“Those endorphins released when we have a positive interaction with an animal just makes<br />
you feel good,” Garlinghouse says. “No matter how rotten your day has been, no matter how<br />
judged or criticized you might feel from people around you, no matter how lonely or isolated<br />
you might be feeling, it’s a great feeling to come through the door and know your pets are always<br />
delighted to see you and think you’re absolutely wonderful.”<br />

There was no missing the girls—four young ladies in floating gowns, looking<br />
like fairy tale princesses waiting to be whisked to a ball. Sisters Sydney,<br />
Emma, and Kenna Warney, along with Ainseley Kay, had dressed up to<br />
talk about Rainbow Girls, a nonprofit service organization for young<br />
women ages 11-20. The formal attire is standard at many Rainbow<br />
events, including meetings, a requirement the girls say they like.<br />
Rainbow—officially the International Order of the Rainbow for Girls—was founded in<br />
1922 to foster self-confidence and leadership skills in girls via service to their community.<br />
Justice Sandra Day O’Connor, actress Lily Tomlin, and former Senator Olympia Snowe<br />
have all been members.<br />
The <strong>Folsom</strong>-based Natoma Assembly, to which the Warney sisters and Kay belong, is<br />
the largest chapter in California with 26 members. Though originally created for daughters<br />
of Masons, the organization now welcomes young women of all backgrounds and beliefs.<br />
“Service is the cornerstone of Rainbow,” says Katy Warney, who, along with Suzanne Kay,<br />
accompanied their daughters. “I love the service we provide. Kids nowadays don’t have<br />

enough avenues to serve.”<br />
Rainbow Girls volunteer at both state<br />
and local levels. Each year, California<br />
Rainbow chooses one nonprofit that all<br />
assemblies fund-raise to support. Last year,<br />
which concluded in April, the members<br />
statewide contributed more than $60,000<br />
to Families Forward, a Southern California<br />
organization that helps empower families<br />
who are homeless or at risk of becoming<br />
homeless. Locally, the Natoma Assembly<br />
performs an exhausting schedule of<br />
activities—a partial list that includes<br />
mulching at <strong>Folsom</strong> High School for<br />
Community Service Day; raising money<br />
and collecting toys for Shriners Hospitals<br />
for Children; marching in the <strong>Folsom</strong><br />
Veterans Day Parade and cooking breakfast<br />
afterward at the local Masonic lodge;<br />
preparing monthly dinners at the lodge;<br />
helping clean creeks; filling hundreds of<br />
prize eggs at the <strong>Folsom</strong> Eggstravaganza;<br />
and running craft booths at local events.<br />
Throughout their community<br />
service, Rainbow Girls are being trained<br />
in leadership and self-confidence. To<br />
that end, the girls run their meetings,<br />
progressing through officers with such<br />
titles as Faith, Hope, Charity, and—in<br />
place of president—Worthy Advisor. Each<br />
group also has a Mother Advisor and<br />
adult advisory board who mentors and<br />
coaches the girls, providing guidance and<br />
support as they plan and execute projects<br />
like membership events, charitable fundraisers,<br />
and social activities.<br />
Faith, hope, and charity are also<br />
among the list of values Rainbow teaches.<br />
Others include love, the beauty of nature,<br />
patriotism, fidelity, and service. To help<br />
build confidence and self-respect, the<br />
group offers public speaking opportunities,<br />
leadership training, and scholarships to<br />
its members. The girls eagerly added a<br />
few benefits of their own. “I would never<br />
have met one of my best friends if I didn’t<br />
have Rainbow,” Ainseley says, indicating<br />
Sydney, who added that she liked “the<br />
ability to serve our community and<br />
give back.” gocarainbow.org/assembly/<br />

home design<br />
When it comes to protecting furniture against furry friend’s antics, it’s<br />
imperative to have durable décor—think easy-to-clean furnishings,<br />
area rugs, and slipcovers. Read on for the best accessories and our top<br />
tips to keep interiors in pet-proof shape.<br />
1<br />
UPHOLSTERY<br />
Both pets and humans are guilty of being<br />
the culprits behind upholstery stains. To make<br />
sure your new couch or favorite chair stands the<br />
test of pets, kids, and time, stick to Fido-friendly<br />
fabrics, like indoor/outdoor and stain-repellant<br />
options. Crypton can endure both dirty pet tracks<br />
and party spills and is surprisingly comfortable;<br />
ultrasuede is also a great option, as spills can be<br />
easily wiped up and won’t get caught in little<br />
claws due to its weave; while leather repels<br />
stains and dirt but could potentially be damaged<br />
by rebellious scratching claws.<br />

5 Stylish Pet-Proof Solutions<br />
2 SLIPCOVERS<br />
If shelling out for a pet-friendly upholstery<br />
piece isn’t on the home improvement to-do list,<br />
by KERRIE L. KELLY, FASID<br />
slipcovers are easy upgrades that can help immensely when feathering your nest.<br />
Just be sure to keep an eye out for ones that don’t require dry cleaning. Investing in<br />
furniture with slipcovers can save you both time and hassle, keeping the focus on<br />
enjoying your furry friends instead of keeping everyone off the white chairs.<br />

3<br />
AREA RUGS<br />
Rugs are must-haves for every major room, tying in the<br />
décor and creating a cozy place for pets to curl up (that isn’t on<br />
your brand-new furniture). Opt for a pet-proof rug like an indoor/<br />
outdoor one that’ll keep stains away. The beauty of them is their<br />
ability to deflect dirt, spills, and stains—all while providing a<br />
relatively comfortable feel under those paws. Great for hightraffic<br />
areas and available in just about every pattern and color<br />
imaginable, they double as a way to play up your interior palette.<br />
If an indoor/outdoor one isn’t for you, stick to those with lowpiles,<br />
small patterns, and dark colors, as they’ll make stains<br />
and dirt harder to see and keep cute little paws and claws from<br />
unhooking loops and destroying it come play time.<br />
4 ACCESSORIES<br />
Switch out seasonal accessories for ones that add pizazz<br />
and durability. A festive throw isn’t only great for providing extra<br />
coverage on sofas and seating areas, but it also adds a pop of<br />
color and pattern. Sisal rope can be a great remedy for unwanted<br />
cat scratching when wrapped around chair legs or poles; spice<br />
it up with alternating colored rope for a two-in-one decoration.<br />
5 LANDSCAPING<br />
Pet-friendly furnishings aren’t the only things you need<br />
to consider, however: Outdoor accents like cut flowers and<br />
landscaping need to be kitty- and pup-friendly, too. Azaleas<br />
and lilies are well-known no-nos around animals, due to<br />
their toxicity, but many lesser-known ones are still commonly<br />
found in backyards and public spaces. Check the ASPCA’s<br />
poisonous plants list (aspca.org/pet-care/animal-poison-control/<br />
toxic-and-non-toxic-plants) to make sure those beautiful flower<br />
centerpieces won’t harm your beloved pet.<br />

The Vet Will See You Now<br />
by BRAD CAHOON, DVM<br />
Acupuncture has been used in China for thousands<br />
of years to promote healing. The process involves<br />
inserting tiny needles into certain points of the<br />
body known as acupoints—which can be tied to<br />
muscle groups, nerve bundles, blood vessels, and<br />
even organs or larger body systems—to enhance<br />
blood and nervous system circulation, thereby<br />
stimulating the release of anti-inflammatory and<br />
pain-relieving hormones, which encourages the body to correct imbalances and help<br />
heal itself.<br />
The use of acupuncture in pets is part of an Eastern medicine approach called<br />
Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM). The insertion of the acupuncture<br />
needles is virtually painless for animals, and many owners find their pets become<br />
relaxed or even sleepy when the needles are in place. However, some human<br />
acupuncture patients have noted feelings such as tingling or numbness during<br />
treatments, so animals may show small amounts of discomfort from these new<br />
sensations during initial treatments. Some of the issues that can be treated and<br />
managed with TCVM include:<br />
• Musculoskeletal conditions<br />
• Neurological disorders<br />
• Respiratory disorders<br />
Unlike some medical treatments, there’s a very low risk of<br />
side effects from TCVM; however, acupuncture should always be<br />
performed by a certified veterinary acupuncturist.<br />
There’s an explosion<br />
in the use of<br />
cannabis-related<br />
products in the<br />
holistic pet health<br />
world. While we’ve<br />
all been reading<br />
stories regarding<br />
the growth of the cannabis industry<br />
for humans, the influence in the pet<br />
industry has been similarly impactful.<br />
The active ingredient in these products,<br />
CBD, is extracted from hemp and the<br />
cousin of the more well-known THC—<br />
the psychoactive ingredient found<br />
in marijuana. CBD, however, has no<br />

Examples of pet products containing CBD<br />
include treats, oils, CBD-infused honey,<br />
capsules, salves, and even itch-reducing<br />

been truly astonishing. As with any other pet<br />
supplement, you may wish to seek the input<br />
of your veterinarian before introducing<br />
CBD into your pet’s holistic regimen.<br />
Additionally, it’s recommended that<br />
pets receive only products created in<br />
human-grade facilities.<br />

HOT WEATHER SAFETY TIPS<br />
FOR DOGS by MICHAEL HARRISON<br />
Dogs are susceptible to heat-related<br />
injuries just like humans, which is why<br />
we need to be aware of the indicators of<br />
overheating including excessive panting<br />
or difficulty breathing, increased heart or<br />
respiratory rate, drooling, glazed eyes, and<br />
lethargy or wobbly feet when standing.<br />
Here are some preventative measures you<br />
can take to keep your pets safe during the<br />
hot summer months.<br />
»»<br />
Always have fresh clean water ready for<br />
Fido. Dogs can get dehydrated quickly if<br />
they’re in the heat for too long.<br />
»»<br />
Make sure they have plenty of shade if<br />
left outside for the day. Bring your dog<br />
inside during extreme heat.<br />
»»<br />
Provide frequent breaks while playing<br />
hard or if exposed to hot temps for<br />
longer periods of time.<br />
»»<br />
Never leave a dog in a hot vehicle.<br />
Consider putting a note on the<br />
dashboard to remind you that your dog<br />
is in the car so you won’t forget to take<br />
them out.<br />
»»<br />
Dogs with pushed-in faces or shorter<br />
muzzles have a harder time breathing<br />
and therefore have a harder time<br />
cooling themselves down; watch extra<br />
closely for signs of heat exhaustion.<br />
»»<br />
Dogs sweat but not much—they mainly<br />
sweat from their pads. Most of their<br />
heat is released by panting and if they<br />
breathe very hot air they have difficulty<br />
cooling down. Note: Dogs that are lower<br />
to the ground tend to heat up more<br />
quickly from the radiant heat.<br />
»»<br />
Dogs’ paws a can be sensitive to hot<br />
surfaces. Asphalt tends to get the<br />
hottest, so if you see your dog “tap<br />
dancing” their paws are hot. Get them<br />
moving or get under the shade. Try to<br />
exercise them in the earlier hours of the<br />
day.<br />
»»<br />
Look for a dog-approved sunscreen<br />
that’s usually for their noses.<br />
»»<br />
It is not recommended to shave dogs<br />
since their fur protects them from the<br />
UV rays.<br />

American Pet Products<br />
Association’s National<br />

we spent $69 billion<br />

Dreamie<br />
“Dreamie is a four-year-old huacaya alpaca who lives on our ranch, Alpacas<br />
of Somerset Farm. We plan to use Dreamie in weddings, since she has a sweet<br />
disposition and is very affectionate. This beautiful girl is also a part of the<br />
ranch’s mentoring and education program. Unlike most alpacas, she loves<br />
hugs and kisses!”—Jack and Dianna Jordan<br />

Top Dogs by Alyssa Mielke<br />
Every dog has its day, but the following pups and their<br />
people are doing big things day in, day out.<br />
Richard Hunter and Klinger photos by Menka Belgal.<br />
Delilah Jane<br />
“Delilah Jane is almost 10 years<br />
old and lives in <strong>Folsom</strong>. She has<br />
white, silky long hair that has to<br />
be brushed all the time, which is a<br />
good thing since being brushed is<br />
her favorite pasttime (along with<br />
eating and watching birds from<br />
windows).”—Charlene Agles<br />
Eevee<br />
“Eevee loves hot dogs and will<br />
growl-talk when she’s happy and/<br />
or excited. A few months ago,<br />
she suffered a serious accident,<br />
and we were told she wouldn’t<br />
have much mobility on her front<br />
leg. Luckily, she’s walking and<br />
running with no problem.”—<br />
Imelda Hernandez<br />
Hadley<br />
“Hadley is a rescue Keeshond<br />
whose favorite pastime is<br />
waiting for the lizards to come<br />
out from under the hot tub and<br />
chasing them back in.”—Linda<br />
Rodenspiel<br />
didn’t exist. Enter Guiding Eyes<br />
for the Blind. With assistance<br />
from the nonprofit’s CEO,<br />
Thomas Panek, Hunter helped<br />
create a special training<br />
program for running guide<br />
dogs. Hunter says Klinger’s<br />
success has “paved the way<br />
for other blind runners to<br />
be partnered with running<br />
guide dogs across the U.S.”<br />
and is what makes him<br />
proudest of his dog.<br />
Klinger, with his<br />
undying stamina,<br />
offers Hunter a new<br />
sense of freedom<br />
within his <strong>Folsom</strong><br />
neighborhood. The<br />
German shepherd<br />
Richard Hunter and Klinger<br />
Five-year-old Klinger is the first-ever<br />
certified dual purpose running guide<br />
dog in the U.S. Add to that the bond he<br />
has with his owner, Richard Hunter, and<br />
the dog is one of a kind.<br />
Hunter, an avid runner and former<br />
commissioned Marine officer, lost<br />
much of his sight due to retinitis<br />
pigmentosa, but his blindness hasn’t<br />
stopped him from achieving a long list<br />
of accomplishments—some of which<br />
include running the Boston Marathon<br />
multiple times, being the second blind<br />
American runner to complete a 100-<br />
mile endurance run, and receiving the<br />
Sacramento Running Association’s 2017<br />
Community Runner of the Year Award.<br />
After he was struck by a car while<br />
riding his tandem bicycle and seriously<br />
injured, Hunter’s middle daughter<br />
encouraged him to get a guide dog.<br />
Unfortunately, guide dogs who could go<br />
on runs<br />

after every single run.” In addition, Klinger has a<br />
friendly and gentle disposition and is the poster pup<br />
for guide dogs everywhere. At press time, Klinger was<br />
a semifinalist for the American Humane Hero Dog<br />
Awards, an annual campaign that recognizes heroes on<br />
both ends of the leash.<br />

Pets<br />
and Their<br />
who’s hypoallergenic so can be<br />
around patients with fur allergies.<br />
The four-year old pup has been<br />
with Goossen since he was nine<br />
weeks old, when she and Max<br />
bonded especially well at one<br />
of Goossen’s visits to Brasken<br />
Labradoodles in San Luis Obispo.<br />
Now, Max visits the patients each<br />
day to make sure they feel loved<br />
and supported. Greeting the<br />
people who come through the<br />
door is his<br />
favorite thing<br />
to do, but he<br />
also loves to<br />
hang out with<br />
the patients<br />
receiving treatment.<br />
Wendy Goossen and Max<br />
There’s just something about<br />
seeing a large, mocha-colored<br />
Labradoodle bounding down<br />
a medical center hallway<br />
that brightens up the whole<br />
atmosphere. At Marshall Medical<br />
Center in Placerville, Max raises<br />
the spirits of each patient fighting<br />
cancer when he comes to work<br />
with his owner, Cancer Resource<br />
Center Director Wendy Goossen.<br />
For many patients, the treatment<br />
they receive is part medication and<br />
part love from the soft dog. “I love<br />
that Max makes so many [patients]<br />
smile. It really makes their day to<br />
have someone to hug,” Goossen<br />
says.<br />
Thanks to initial funding from<br />
Wells Fargo and supplemental<br />
contributions from community<br />
members, Marshall Medical<br />
Center raised money for pet<br />
therapy program. Once Goossen<br />
was approved for a canine therapy<br />
dog and realized the dog couldn’t<br />
shed, she was led straight to Max,<br />
Q&A<br />
Favorite food: Anything<br />
he can’t have<br />
Favorite activity:<br />
Chasing balls<br />
Guilty pleasure:<br />
Sneaking into the<br />
neighbor’s yard<br />
Hidden talent:<br />
Swimming<br />
Favorite local<br />
landmark: Historic<br />
Main Street in<br />
Placerville<br />
Favorite toy: A monkey<br />
that he’s had since<br />
puppyhood<br />
On Max’s days off, he loves going hiking<br />
and playing in the water. Goossen says, “It’s<br />
so much fun to watch him [play] outdoors and<br />
appreciate being in nature.”<br />
Madison and Quinn<br />
“Madison and Quinn are<br />
the babies of the house!<br />
They love treats and belly<br />
rubs from their mom.”—<br />
Tanya White<br />
Maks with Kylee (human)<br />
“We rescued Maks as a puppy,<br />
and he’s absolutely the best dog!<br />
He loves his family and going on<br />
road trips to the ocean.”—Kari<br />
McKinley<br />
Lucy<br />
“Lucy is an energetic two-yearold<br />
who plays hard—running and<br />
jumping high off the floor. She<br />
loves fresh water with ice and<br />
waits for it every evening by the<br />
fridge.”— Kathleen Emami<br />

Pets<br />
and Their<br />
Officer Gage Lawley and Eros<br />
Don’t let Eros’ dashing good looks deceive you. This fierce K-9 officer on the Roseville Police<br />
Department loves tug-of-war, chicken, and justice. The handsome sable colored dog is originally<br />
from Germany and was<br />
sent to Canada where he was<br />
unfortunately injured.<br />
In August 2010, Eros was<br />
transferred to California and<br />
paired with his owner, Officer<br />
Gage Lawley, where he<br />
underwent what is equivilent<br />
to the police academy for<br />
dogs—a 12-week intensive<br />
training session. In addition<br />
to initial certification, each<br />
K-9 team trains two days a<br />
month with other K-9 units<br />
in the region to stay sharp in<br />
the field.<br />
“Eros is always wanting to<br />
work,” Officer Lawley says,<br />
and he appreciates that.<br />
The canine is cross-trained<br />
in patrol and narcotics<br />
detection, which means<br />
he works on a patrol team<br />
and also detects narcotics<br />
in buildings, vehicles, open<br />
areas, and packages. Eros’<br />
position was funded by drug<br />
asset forfeiture funds, so the<br />
dog is giving back by being<br />
Q&A<br />
Favorite food:<br />
Anything that tastes<br />
like chicken<br />
Favorite activity:<br />
Working; playing tugof-war<br />
Guilty pleasure:<br />
Afternoon naps<br />
Hidden talent:<br />
Dropping his toy in<br />
running water so he<br />
can chase and find it<br />
Favorite local<br />
landmark: Sierra<br />
Nevada—he loves hiking<br />
Favorite toy: Kong with<br />
rope through it<br />
a part of the squad. On<br />
occasion, Officer Lawley<br />
and Eros go to schools for<br />
demonstrations, and each<br />
time, Eros is a huge hit.<br />
Officer Lawley says what<br />
makes him most proud of<br />
the German shepherd is his<br />
ability “to be a ferocious,<br />
hardworking K-9, then go to<br />
a demonstration at a school<br />
and become a loving, regular<br />
dog.” Because of this, the dog<br />
is a reliable worker and even<br />
better pet. Officer Lawley could not have asked for a more<br />
perfect fit to his K-9 team.<br />

we adopted them from the Cats Inn when they were seven months old.<br />
”—Charlene Agles<br />
Gio<br />
“Meet Gio the Italian greyhound! You can catch him walking down<br />
Sutter Street in <strong>Folsom</strong> several nights a week.”—Jordan Kvick<br />
Tibet<br />
“Tibet is our 18-year-old<br />
Dutch warm blood, a Grand<br />
Prix dressage horse. He’s very<br />
talented, loves people, and gives<br />
kisses for treats. He loves to pick<br />
up the paddock rake and wave it<br />
around. Everyone loves him!”—<br />
Donna and David Dutton<br />
Lexi<br />
“We fell in love with seven-yearold<br />
Lexi when we looked into her<br />
beautiful blue eyes! We didn't need<br />
another cat, as we already had<br />
two other cats at home, but she’s<br />
a sweetie pie (even though she’s a<br />
picky eater and usually only likes<br />
fish). Sometimes she’ll walk around<br />
with a [doll] in her mouth and cry<br />
like a baby, which gets our attention<br />
pretty quickly.”—Charlene Agles<br />
Maggie<br />
“Maggie is an 11-year-old pit mix<br />
who likes to go for walks, chase<br />
her tennis ball, go to the vet,<br />
and get her nails done. She also<br />
loves attention and thinks she’s a<br />
human.”—Beth Acre<br />
Tinkerbell<br />
“Tinkerbell is a Boxador and a<br />
rescue from Plymouth. She loves<br />
playing catch and running up and<br />
down our 1.25-acre property.”—<br />

gets tired of<br />
chasing lizards,<br />
she enjoys a nice,<br />
relaxing belly<br />
rub.”—Max Lee<br />
Chiko<br />
“Chiko loves his walks and<br />
playtime at the dog park. His two<br />
favorite things are chillaxing on<br />
the couch with his favorite pillow<br />
and sleeping under the covers<br />
with Mom. He’s an American<br />
bulldog mix and was adopted<br />
two-and-a-half years ago from the<br />
Placer SPCA.”—Larissa Parecki<br />
Misty<br />
“This is Misty. We adopted her in<br />
2016 from the Sacramento SPCA.<br />
She enjoys sleeping in the sun,<br />
meowing for cat treats, and bird<br />
watching.”—Kim Rowe<br />
Zoey<br />
“Zoey is an eclectic Yorkie terrier.<br />
He’s just as content snuggling<br />
with his mama or riding along<br />
town in his pet stroller as he is<br />
adventuring outside and jumping<br />
on rocks. During the summer,<br />
you can find him sunbathing by a<br />
window or rolling around in a wet<br />
towel.”—Lisa Tran<br />

“This is Pepper Garcia enjoying<br />
the beautiful river at Coloma<br />
Resort. She is just happy to be<br />

cheese and bacon.”—Maria Garcia<br />

Kosciuk<br />
Precious<br />
“Precious, aka ‘Preshy,’ begs for<br />
food by praying, can play soccer,<br />
and loves eating anything with<br />
chicken or cheese. When he<br />
sleeps, he hides his eyes behind a<br />
chair, a post, or anything to block<br />
out his eyes from the light.”—<br />
Janet Wong<br />
Stella, Max, and Luca<br />
“My three German shepherds—Stella, Max, and Luca, aka Medicare Man—<br />
were rescued through Greater California German Shepherd Rescue. All<br />
three are partners in crime, thick as thieves, and the biggest lumps of love<br />
ever! They’re smart, loyal, and formidable looking but the worst they would<br />
do is kiss you to death.”—Kim Schory<br />

goldendoodle who loves to play<br />
with tennis balls and is currently<br />
in training to become a therapy<br />

Aging is not lost youth,” said writer and activist Betty<br />
Friedan, “but a new stage of opportunity and<br />
strength.” These golden years are most apparent<br />
at our region’s vibrant senior centers that are<br />
constantly bustling with activity. Research has<br />
shown that adults can delay the onset of chronic<br />
disease and improve their physical, social, spiritual, emotional,<br />
mental, and economic well-being through participation at these<br />
centers. If you’re looking to find out more, consider the following<br />

Senior LIFE Center of Loomis was established as an activity of<br />
Soroptimist International of Rocklin and Loomis where seniors can<br />
enjoy leisure, informative, and social activities surrounded by peers.<br />
Challenge the mind, body, and spirit with table games, quilting, tai<br />
chi, yoga, Zumba, performers, lectures, field trips, conversation, and more. Those over age<br />

Back Bistro<br />
Shrimp and Polenta<br />
Polished Plates with Pizzazz<br />
by LORN RANDALL // photos by DANTE FONTANA<br />
Longtime <strong>Folsom</strong> favorite Back Bistro recently made the<br />
leap from its cozy, neighborhood location to the glitz<br />
and glamour of a 4,500-square-foot destination at the<br />
Palladio. Featuring an impressive craft cocktail bar<br />
that commands attention as soon as you enter, the<br />
restaurant also serves up the same quality fare that<br />
made loyal fans of its original customers—with a few<br />
new dishes and a boutique wine selection.<br />
I started with the sautéed artichoke hearts, whose<br />
presentation was a bit of a surprise, as it’s served “bruschetta style”—<br />
topped with olives, fennel confit, capers, roasted garlic, and the namesake<br />
artichoke hearts over grilled French bread. The real plot twist, however,<br />
was the white wine cream sauce the sliced baguettes were perched atop—a<br />
very creative and tasty application, indeed.<br />
Next came the warm arugula salad with pancetta, quinoa, red onions,<br />
toasted almonds, and shaved Parmesan. The balsamic dressing was applied<br />
sparingly (thank you), and the tasty, texture-rich toppings were the perfect<br />
pairing to the peppery baby arugula.<br />
As I ordered “steak and potatoes,” the server asked if I wanted to “surf<br />
and turf” it. He barely got the words out of his mouth when I hit him with<br />
a resounding “yes!” The resulting plate featured grilled steak over fondant<br />
potatoes and garlic aioli with a skewered shrimp crowning each of the three<br />
brochettes. Not surprisingly, this is one of Back Bistro's most requested small<br />
plates, and if you’re just looking for a quick bite, there’s plenty of protein here<br />
to hold you over.<br />
Warm Arugula Salad<br />
Between this and the other two starters, I was content, but all willpower went<br />
out the window when I saw the bistro’s version of shrimp and grits. Ever since ordering and falling in<br />
love with the dish at Luke in New Orleans, I’m tempted to try it everywhere. Whether it’s breakfast<br />
(with a poached egg), lunch, or dinner, I’m a devout fan, and Back’s entry hit the mark. The option here<br />
featured an Italian twist (creamy polenta in lieu of grits) but still boasted some of the NOLA traditions<br />
(andouille sausage and roasted tomatoes).<br />
I’m sure I didn’t need dessert at this point, but when a menu offers “The Famous Triple Pot de Crème,”<br />
how can you not find out if it lives up to its nom de plume? After all, it’s French pudding…right? You’ll<br />
have to stop by Back Bistro and see for yourself (spoiler alert: My “pot” was spotless).<br />

“The process for prepping their Southern<br />
fried chicken is just short of the medical<br />
journal definition of OCD. First, it's brined<br />
for 24 hours and cooked in sous-vide for<br />
two hours, then chilled and marinated in<br />
buttermilk overnight, and finally placed in a<br />
straightforward, Southern-style coating and<br />
deep-fried. The result is a competition-worthy<br />

Falafel Corner // For just a short time now, Falafel Corner has been serving <strong>Folsom</strong> residents mouthwatering, made-from-scratch<br />
Mediterranean dishes with a side of friendly service. Upon entering, you’re instantly hit with the enticing aromas of spices and fresh local veggies.<br />
Thanks to the warm atmosphere and amiable employees, I instantly felt at ease and ready to dive into their intriguing menu. The eatery is unique<br />
in that they cater to every customer’s needs—from offering high-quality zabiha ingredients (including premium, corn-fed Harris Ranch beef) to<br />
classic and familiar dishes (burgers, curly fries, and quesadillas), as well as authentic Mediterranean cuisine that runs the gamut from gyros to<br />
their namesake falafel. For my inaugural visit, I tried the Combo Platter and was instantly transported to foodie heaven. The plate came with a<br />
heavy helping of protein (perfectly seasoned chicken and tender, rotisserie cooked then grilled lamb/beef) as well as buttery rice pilaf, a fresh<br />
Greek salata, house-made hummus, pita bread, and tangy tzatziki sauce that had my mouth burning but begging for more. The sheer amount of<br />
food wasn't the only thing that was impressive about this dish, however; the way that all the flavors—from the rice, meat, and the sauces—melded<br />
together was truly an experience that everyone needs to understand firsthand. Now that I know what Falafel Corner is capable of, I’ll be back to<br />
try more of their mouthwatering menu. 2690 East Bidwell Street, Suite 300, <strong>Folsom</strong>, 916-817-1184, falafelcorner.us/folsom.<br />

THE HOT COOL LIST<br />
Ice Cream!<br />
6 Best Shops compiled by STYLE STAFFERS // photos by DANTE FONTANA<br />
Summer and ice cream seem to be synonymous; it really is the perfect way to beat the heat. Whether you<br />
prefer to keep it classic with vanilla or favor funky flavors, we have the scoop on what’s good here in our<br />
’hood. In no particular order…<br />
“The Niche Ice Cream in <strong>Folsom</strong> sells fresh-made Gunther’s ice<br />
cream sandwiched inside warm donuts and macarons, or simply scooped<br />
into a cone or cup. Though all of their offerings are sweet (pun intended)—<br />
and they have a rainbow of unique, regularly rotating flavors to pick from—<br />
my go-to is their Taro Macaron Sandwich. It combines my two<br />
favorite food groups—cookies and ice cream—and is pretty much as good<br />
as it gets in the land of frozen favorites.” thenicheicecream.com<br />
The Niche Ice Cream<br />
“Hangman’s Tree Ice Cream Saloon in Placerville<br />
scoops up old-fashioned soda shop-style frozen<br />
delights like malts and milkshakes in lovingly restored<br />
surrounds that include vintage tables and chairs, original 1880s<br />
floors, and a mural from 1945. I typically take a trip down<br />
memory lane with their Banana Split. Nothing says nostalgia<br />
like a spoonful each of vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry ice<br />
cream alongside hot fudge, strawberry sauce, whipped cream, nuts,<br />
and a perfectly ripe banana. After an afternoon strolling historic Main<br />
Street, it’s the cherry on top.” hangmanstree.com<br />
Sweet Dozen Cones<br />
“For those seeking unique, Italian-style gelato in wild, ever-changing<br />
flavors—all crafted using local, seasonal produce and time-honored,<br />
artisanal techniques—Zia’s Italian Caffe and Gelato Bar in<br />
the <strong>El</strong> <strong>Dorado</strong> <strong>Hills</strong> Town Center is the perfezionare place. Though the<br />
dairy-based gelato (ice cream’s richer, silkier sister) is hard to resist, the<br />
lactose-intolerant side of me typically selects a scoop, or three, of their<br />
pink grapefruit lemonade and raspberry rosé Sorbetto (flavors change<br />
seasonally) in a house-made Waffle Cone. Some might scream for ice<br />
cream, but I scream for sorbetto!” ziasgelato.com<br />
“Honey Treat Yogurt has been my family’s go-to spot for soft serve<br />
since before I could walk, and it’s right in the middle of Roseville’s primo<br />
shopping spots, so it’s a great pick-me-up while out and about. My favorite<br />
thing to order is their Fudgesicle frozen yogurt piled high with Gummy<br />
Bears and Rainbow Sprinkles. The best part? The prices are<br />
reasonable and the staff is sweet. In a world of ‘pay per ounce’ ice cream,<br />
it’s literally and figuratively refreshing.” 916-781-3047<br />
“For me, The Parlor Ice Cream Puffs in Roseville will win, hands<br />
down, every time. The ice cream by itself is deliciously creamy, sweet, and<br />
heavenly, but then you put it inside of a warm donut and the whole world<br />
just sings at the beauty of it. For the ultimate sandwich, try the namesake<br />
Ice Cream Puff with half 50 Shades of Earl Grey and half<br />
Midnight in Paris ice cream inside one of their freshly made glazed<br />
donuts with a dusting of powdered sugar perfection. Pro tip: On Tuesdays,<br />
puffs are just $2.95. Your waistline might not be happy, but your wallet will<br />
be!” theparloricecream.com<br />
“Forget cardboard-tasting cake cones. At Sweet Dozen Cones in<br />
Historic <strong>Folsom</strong>, they offer fresh-baked Hungarian-inspired ‘chimney’<br />
cones that are dusted with cinnamon and sugar and reminiscent of a<br />
churro. I’ve sampled almost every offering and keep coming back to<br />
the Cereal N’ Milk that features soft-serve vanilla gelato with Fruity<br />
Pebbles in said cone. Talk about the breakfast (and dessert) of champions.”<br />

TASTING NOTES: Dry, crisp, fruity, and fragrant;<br />
complex and easy to drink; aromas of freshly<br />
cut citrus with notes of apples, pears, and<br />
peaches; perfect pairing for appetizers like<br />

seeds, and ¼ cup water to a boil in a saucepan over medium–high. Reduce to a simmer and cook<br />
for 5 minutes until the sugar has dissolved. Pour the hot mixture over the cucumbers, cap with a<br />
tight-fitting lid, and set aside. These will keep for up to 6 months in the fridge.<br />
2Place the beef in a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and mix to combine. Gently shape the<br />
meat into four patties about 1 inch thick. Using your thumb, gently make a small indentation<br />
in the center of each patty. This ensures they will keep their shape when cooking. Heat a grill/<br />
barbecue to medium–high. Brush the grate with oil. Place the patties on the grill and cook for 5<br />
minutes. Flip them over and continue to cook for another 5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer<br />
for well done. For the last 2 minutes of cooking, place a slice of cheese on top of each patty to melt.<br />
3Slice and toast the buns on the grill, then serve alongside the patties, pickles, and platter<br />
of fixings. Serves 4.<br />

OVERALL RATING is the average score (out of 5) compiled by Style staff tasters. Ratings should be taken with a<br />
grain of salt, as we are by no means “experts”—just hard-working employees who enjoy imbibing.<br />
While Crooked Lane, located in Auburn, offers<br />
a vast selection of German lagers, West Coast<br />
and New England-style IPAs, and barrel-aged<br />
sours and ales, their 1-2 Punch is particularly<br />
palatable. The New England-inspired IPA<br />
offers big tropical aromas, a moderate ABV,<br />
and an unbelievably juicy<br />
flavor that’s exactly what<br />
your summer barbecue is<br />
missing. Peach, mango,<br />
and tropical hops give<br />
it a bright, bold flavor<br />
that pairs nicely with<br />
beef and tangy pickled<br />
cucumbers. With its clean<br />
finish and soft bitterness, it’s<br />
the ideal summertime sip.<br />
