COYOTES IN COPPERFIELD<br />

Coyotes have been sighted in many of the subdivisions in the <strong>Copperfield</strong><br />

area at night and before dawn. Please protect your pets. They should not<br />

be left unattended after dark, even in their own enclosed yard as coyotes<br />

can jump or scale a 6-7 ft fence.<br />

MESSAGE FROM THE CY-FAIR<br />

VOLUNTEER FIRE DEPARTMENT:<br />

The Cy-Fair Volunteer Fire Department is requesting homeowner<br />

assistance in addressing the low hanging trees within the community.<br />

These low hanging branches or limbs are hampering responses to calls<br />

for assistance. The branches and limbs are damaging equipment and<br />

Homeowner’s trees. Routes to locations have to be altered. Some locations<br />

are unable to have an alternate route, leaving no recourse but to park the<br />

apparatus and walk to the location.<br />

Several pieces of equipment are 13 feet tall and CFVFD is requesting that<br />

homeowners trim the trees to have a 14 feet umbrella over the street.<br />

The Department members have been instructed not to damage their<br />

apparatus or the Homeowner’s trees by driving down streets that do not<br />

have appropriate passage. The fire department does not wish to have<br />

a citizen with a fire or medical emergency that delays them receiving<br />

attention due to having to locate an alternate route or being forced to walk<br />

to the emergency location. If damage is caused by a homeowner’s tree,<br />

the homeowner will be held responsible for the repair.<br />

COPPERFIELD WEBSITE<br />

Will you be going away and want the Sheriff’s Department to check on<br />

your home while you’re gone? If so, you can print a Vacation Watch Form<br />

from the website. Simply go to www.copperfield.org and follow the link<br />

to the Online Forms and Documents. Other forms on the site include<br />

GARAGE SALE!!!!! GARAGE SALE!!!!! IMPORTANT DATE TO REMEMBER<br />

water. Evaporation only occurs when you water during the day when the<br />

temperatures are high. It can also cause your gardens to burn with the<br />

moisture and heat.<br />

Neighbors, please be considerate of others when you have a “BACKYARD<br />

PARTY!” The loud noise level will not be tolerated and is very inconsiderate<br />

of your neighbors. This includes loud music in the garage or out in your<br />

patio. We have been experiencing such behavior even late at night. The<br />

Harris County Sheriff Department can be contacted if you are experiencing<br />

this for disturbance of the peace. Call 713-221-6000 (prompt 6).<br />

this violation throughout the neighborhood and repeated violators<br />

can be ticketed! Illegal parking in the streets are being monitored<br />

by HCSD and tickets are being issued. For more information enroll<br />

in <strong>Copperfield</strong>buzzclub.Nextdoor.com. Sgt. Adam Lightfoot puts out<br />

important information on various laws and issues.<br />

MILDEW: Mildew on the sides of homes have been cited, as well as<br />

painting needed on some homes. We would like to think you care<br />

and are proud about your neighborhood. Get a copy of the deed<br />

restrictions if you do not have one by going into the <strong>Copperfield</strong><br />

website, www.copperfield.org and tag on <strong>Copperfield</strong> Place Village.<br />

FENCING: Check your fencing and repair if boards are loose or<br />

GARBAGE CANS MUST BE STORED OUT OF SIGHT! Garbage pick<br />

up is scheduled for Tuesdays and Fridays. In the evening, please<br />

remove trashcans from the street after pickup! Put trash out the<br />

No boats, trailers, commercial trucks or inoperable vehicles are<br />

allowed in driveways or street and are against deed restriction<br />

violations! You will be charged a fee if you have been cited before<br />

emergency vehicles access ability at times and therefore considered<br />

a serious violation.<br />

Easton Commons Village<br />

(EC) YARD OF THE MONTH<br />

Congratulations to our Yard of the Month winner! The August recipient was<br />

C. Tompkins from 14711 Forest Trails. Thanks to all of the Easton Commons<br />

owners who do so much to keep up the appearance of their property!<br />

(EC) EGRETS AND HERONS HAVE COME TO EASTON COMMONS<br />

As I’m sure many of you are already aware, Easton Commons has become a<br />

nesting area for egrets and herons. At this point in the season, the owners of<br />

affected properties are very limited in what they can do to be rid of this problem,<br />

as egrets, herons and other migratory birds are protected by international<br />

treaty and it’s illegal for residents to harass or harm the birds once they lay eggs.<br />

However, because the condition of nesting areas creates extremely unattractive<br />

and unsanitary conditions that can have a negative impact on property values,<br />

we want all of the community to be aware of the issue so that the birds’ return<br />

can be prevented in the spring of 2019.<br />

Any home with mature trees is a potential nesting site for these birds but they<br />

especially like oak trees with touching canopies. Prevention is crucial - when the<br />

birds first arrive in spring, they are somewhat nervous and more easily scared<br />

away. The absolute critical time period is between when the first bird is spotted<br />

in the area until the first egg is laid in a nest. This is the crunch time when you<br />

have the only opportunity to scare the birds away and to disrupt the problem.<br />

Putting visual deterrents in trees is recommended before nest building begins.<br />

You can also scare off birds with noisemakers, water sprayers and other nonlethal<br />

devices. Neighbors are advised to check their trees daily and remove the<br />

start of any nest. Once birds begin sitting on the nest, eggs are probably present<br />

and birds cannot be harassed.<br />

Watch for Signs - Night herons are the first to migrate in mid-February. While not<br />

usually a nuisance, the presence of night herons lets other migrating birds know<br />

they’ve found a good place to nest. It is important for the entire neighborhood<br />

to act together. Our hope is migrating birds eventually make their rookery in<br />

trees away from residential homes.<br />

Below is a list of possible tools and tactics you can use to deter migratory<br />

birds from nesting on your property. Experts say a variety of deterrents<br />

works best. Just remember - do not harm birds or eggs.<br />

TRIM YOUR TREES - Remove dead wood. Thin tree canopy to allow<br />

sunlight between limbs and other trees. Experts say this is the most<br />

effective step you can take.<br />

VISUAL DETERRENTS - Hang aluminum pie plates, Mylar balloons, beach<br />

balls with shiny streamers or other moving objects in large trees before<br />

mid-Feb.<br />

NOISEMAKERS - Pump-style air horns, whistles, clappers and even children’s<br />

toys are effective. Make as much noise as possible aimed at the bird.<br />

BRIGHT LIGHTS - High-intensity flashlights, strobe lights, flashing holiday<br />

lights can be effective.<br />

WATER SPRAYERS - Power sprayers and pump-style toy water shooters<br />

can help. Homemade PVC pipe sprayers can help reach tall tree limbs.<br />

POOL POLES - Telescoping pool safety poles can be used to reach and<br />

remove early nesting material.<br />

(EC) MOSQUITO CONTROL<br />

Although the Easton Commons HOA has mosquito control come through<br />

regularly during the summer, it is not enough to get rid of them completely.<br />

The summer months can be uncomfortable, due to all of the biting insects.<br />

One of the best ways to prevent mosquitoes is to eliminate their breeding<br />

grounds. Controlling mosquitoes also minimizes the risk of mosquitoborne<br />

diseases, including St. Louis encephalitis and West Nile Virus<br />

encephalitis. Homeowners need to scan their property and dispose of or<br />

remedy anything causing standing water. The eggs that mosquitoes lay<br />

in rainwater hatch in as little as two days. Tip over buckets or containers,<br />

flowerpots with reservoirs, toys, boats, wheelbarrows, birdbaths and<br />

wading pools. Clean clogged roof gutters; fill in low areas of the yard that<br />

collects water, dispose of leaf piles and chlorinate pools. Treat water in<br />

fountains or water gardens if the water does not flow on a regular basis.<br />

(EC) CURB REPAIR<br />

Curbs are repaired through Harris County Precinct 4. To request a work order,<br />

visit their website - www.hcp4.net/cad/. You also may call 281-353-8424<br />

or fax a report to 281-893-5589. The homeowner’s must be involved with<br />

the request. Only the straight part of the curb in front of the home will be<br />

repaired. The end of the driveway and the inlet (curved smaller area) to the<br />

driveway is the homeowner’s responsibility. Precinct 4 has been remarkably<br />

responsive to requests, often making repairs in only two to three days.<br />

(EC) TRASH PICK UP SERVICE<br />

All Residents must have an account with WCA for trash pickup. If you do<br />

not have an account with WCA, your trash will no longer be picked up.<br />

Trash pickup days are Tuesdays for trash and Fridays for trash and<br />

recycling. Have waste ready at the curb for collection no later than 7 AM.<br />

Residents may purchase a trash receptacle from any hardware store.<br />

Recycling boxes may be requested from WCA, additional boxes may be<br />

purchased from them as well. WCA Phone# 281-766-1914.<br />

WCA observed Holidays are New Years Day, Memorial Day, Independence<br />

Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. Trash pickup will<br />

resume on the following trash collection day.<br />

In order to keep the neighborhood appealing to potential buyers, increase<br />

curb appeal and deter vandalism we ask that trash be placed at the curb<br />

no earlier than the evening before scheduled pick up and trash cans be<br />

removed the same day. If you have lawn service, please request the lawn<br />

clippings to be hauled away or have them placed in a location that cannot<br />

be seen from the street.<br />

Turn your treasures into cash. Mark your calendar for Saturday, October<br />

13, <strong>2018</strong> for the fall community garage sale. Community in the sense that<br />

it’s the HOA designated day this fall for Middlegate residents to hold a<br />

garage sale. Set up on your property. No need to haul your belongings to<br />

a remote site. Event opens at 7 AM and closes at 3 PM on garage sale day.<br />

about Middlegate’s website SCS Go; are you registered? Let’s make this a<br />

friendly and informative meet and greet.<br />

(MG) POOL TRESPASSING NOTICE<br />

When pool is closed, it is not open. Period.<br />

Entering within the fenced area of the pool after pool is closed is<br />

trespassing. The Sheriff’s Department will be contacted when a trespasser<br />

is seen.<br />

These facilities are provided for and maintained by Middlegate<br />

maintenance fees. Keeping the property secure after hours is a priority<br />

with your HOA.<br />

(MG) BIRD COMMITTEE FALL <strong>2018</strong><br />

Middlegate parks have seen another successful year. Migratory birds did<br />

not form rookeries in either park this season. Herons and egrets are still<br />

active in the area, as they have ample food sources and plenty of trees to<br />

roost in.<br />

To continue to discourage birds from nesting in trees, we all need to keep<br />

trees trimmed. HOA needs to reassess park trees. Homeowners need to<br />

tend to the trees on their properties. The migratory birds form colonies<br />

in densely packed trees and in trees of plentiful branches. The first heron<br />

makes a visit to Middlegate in February, to scout out the real estate.<br />

Activity picks up in March and April, when more birds stop by to look for<br />

places to nest and raise young.<br />

(MG) USING YOUR GARDEN AND<br />

YARD TO ADDED ADVANTAGE<br />

What are some of your biggest assets in deterring intruders? The answer…<br />

your garden and yard. Do you have dense plantings in your yard? As HGTV<br />

reports, one of the best defenses against burglars “can be the eyes and<br />

ears of your neighbors. If you have a jungle like yard, your neighbors can’t<br />

keep an eye on your front door when you’re not home.” HGTV also reports<br />

that you want to be able to see out of your own windows and too much<br />

vegetation around them can give burglars a place to hide. Fortunately,<br />

moderation is key! HGTV recommends not getting rid of plants, just<br />

thinning them out.<br />

As House Beautiful reports, you shouldn’t let any of your plants - even<br />

ones that you specifically want to deter burglars - get too big. “An<br />

overgrown garden gives thieves shelter and plenty of places to hide,” the<br />

publication notes. “Leave points of entry to the house visible to the street<br />

and illuminate them with a motion-sensor light if possible.”<br />

(MG) TWO MIDDLEGATE PARKS<br />

Middlegate Village maintains two parks for residents’ use. The pool park is<br />

located at the intersection of Sterling Lake Drive and Silent Cedars Drive.<br />

The pool facility is open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The gazebo park<br />

is bordered by Plum Lake Drive, Pinyon Creek Drive and Lakedale Drive.<br />

Both parks are open during daylight hours and are equipped with picnic<br />

tables, grills, playground equipment and volleyball nets.<br />

(MG) POOL AND PARK NEWS<br />

The Pool and Park committee has identified areas of concern regarding<br />

both parks over the last 6 weeks and steps have been taken to deal with<br />

issues that should improve the parks appearance and functions.<br />

1. The marquee in the gazebo park is under contract to be fixed and<br />

information regarding events in Middlegate will be posted.<br />

2. The storm drain cover that was damaged in the gazebo park has been<br />

replaced with a new grate.<br />

3. Both playground parks have been placed in the bidding process to be<br />

power washed.<br />

4. There is a sinkhole in the pool park that is currently fenced off with<br />

orange fencing. Since it is now established that this area belongs to<br />

Middlegate and not the county, the repair is now in the bidding process.<br />

Please do not attempt to remove the fencing.<br />

5. The standing water that has accumulated in the pool parks after the<br />

sprinklers went through their cycles is now gone. The sprinklers were<br />

turned off to allow the ground to dry out. The Board is determining what<br />

steps to take regarding the system.<br />

6. Landscaping issues involving the park signs have been discussed and<br />

plans are now in final stages to make changes around those signs for the<br />

spring.<br />

7. Landscaping around the gazebo and in the pool parks will be altered<br />

to promote an addition of self seeding colorful flowers/colorful ground<br />

covers.<br />

8. Areas around all the trees in both park will no longer be edged/mulched<br />

but allowed to grow naturally to the tree trunks.<br />

9. A bent playground bar in the gazebo park will be replaced.<br />

10. The volleyball net in the gazebo park will not be replaced at this time.<br />

The committee will continue to monitor the parks for new items that need<br />

the HOA/SCS attention.<br />

If you are interested in joining the committee, please join SCSgo.<br />

Our deed restrictions state that all trash, including grass clippings, cannot<br />

be on the curb until 6 PM the night before pickup and your trashcans<br />

must be picked up from the curb by 6 PM, the day of pickup. So… you<br />

cannot have trash on the curb until Monday and Thursday nights until 6<br />

PM and everything must be removed from the curb by 6 PM on Tuesdays<br />

and Fridays. This includes any bags that contain lawn clippings. If you<br />

have a lawn service, have them place the bags behind your fence and<br />

not leave the clippings on the curb.<br />

Our recycling day is Tuesday. Please have your recycling bin at the curb by<br />

7 AM on Tuesdays. Please pick up your recycling by 6 PM on Tuesdays to<br />

(WC) WESTCREEK BOARD<br />

Meetings - 4 th Tuesday at 6:30 PM<br />

Forest Heights Pool Meeting Room<br />

WESTCREEK CRIME WATCH COMMITTEE<br />

Meetings - 3 rd Monday at 6 PM<br />

Forest Heights Pool Meeting Room<br />

For next meeting, contact lberger@comcast.net.<br />

NATIONAL NIGHT OUT (NNO)<br />

National Night Out (NNO) will take place this year on Tuesday, October<br />

2 nd . Each year residents of Westcreek volunteer to host street gatherings<br />

with the purpose of neighbors meeting neighbors so as to strengthen<br />

neighborhood watches and to deter crime. Stressed at every event is<br />

the theme “If you see something, say something” and encouraging<br />

everyone to report suspicious behavior by keying into cell phones the<br />

Sheriff Dept.’s nonemergency number 713-221-6000 (#6). The WCWC is<br />

encouraging new neighbors to join long time residents this specific night<br />

for this great opportunity to exchange emails and phone numbers in the<br />

event of a future emergency. Several residents have already contacted<br />

chairperson Larry Berger at lberger@comcast.net to volunteer to host a<br />

street gathering. If you are interested in being the “volunteer neighbor”<br />

who will gather your neighbors outside at a specific location on your street<br />

on October 2 nd , please contact Larry Berger for information and details.<br />

Your efforts and support of NNO is truly appreciated.<br />

SAFETY TIPS FROM HARRIS COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE (HCSO)<br />

HCSO promotes the following safety tips: With sales tax free weekend<br />

approaching, remove the opportunity by not leaving purchases in the<br />

vehicle in plain sight and by keeping the windows and doors of the vehicle<br />

locked at all times; HCSO District 4 substation located at 16715 Clay Road<br />

will have a designated officer from 6-8 PM Tuesday-Thursday to provide<br />

a safe meeting place for person-to –person sales transactions especially<br />

those involving the internet. The officer is there for safety purposes only<br />

and will not be involved in negotiations or sales transactions. On the<br />

internet please join Nextdoor Neighbor and specify your neighborhood.<br />

HCSO sends out important messages and tips concerning the community.<br />

BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR<br />

Westcreek would like a captain for every block; so if you would like more<br />

information about how to serve in this position, please contact Larry Berger.<br />

However, all neighbors are encouraged to attend the monthly Westcreek<br />

Crime Watch meeting, which involves less than an hour a month.<br />

Again please park vehicles in garages or in driveways. Vehicles parked in<br />

the street can prevent large emergency vehicles and school buses from<br />

reaching their destinations. The overall neighborhood appearance is<br />

more attractive without blocked and congested streets. Also street parked<br />

vehicles are often targeted for theft as well as vandalized by criminal<br />

mischief acts such as being egged. More importantly, these vehicles are<br />

often backed into by a neighbor or side swiped by another passing vehicle.<br />

All these incidents can be avoided by simply not parking on the street.<br />

Most importantly, let’s go one month without valuables being stolen from<br />

an unlocked vehicle. Simply don’t leave anything of value in the vehicle<br />

and then lock the windows and doors.<br />

WESTCREEK LANDSCAPE COMMITTEE<br />

Meetings - 2 nd Monday of every month at 6:30 PM<br />

Location - Forest Heights Pool Meeting Room<br />

The Westcreek Landscape Committee meets on the 2 nd Monday<br />

every month. If you are interested in helping make a difference in our<br />

neighborhood and would like to become part of the group, we welcome<br />

and encourage your attendance and hope to see you there - there is<br />

always room for you!<br />

SOD WEB WORMS<br />

If you are seeing multiple small, grey moths flitting about<br />

your yard, especially during the early evening hours, you likely<br />

have sod webworms. You likely have areas that show signs of<br />

distress and yellowing of your grass due to the larvae stages of<br />

these moths feeding on your lawn as they develop into adults.<br />

Areas that provide the greatest opportunity for infestation are<br />

hard to water areas or areas that receive infrequent irrigation.<br />

To stop the infestation in your lawn from thriving or continuing<br />

to plague your yard, you will need to treat your lawn areas with<br />

either a biological or chemical agent. Apply an insecticide that<br />

contains synthetic pyrethroids either during the late afternoon<br />

or early evening hours, when temperatures begin to cool and<br />

the larvae stage is most active. Granular products include<br />

Triazicideor Talstar (PL or EZ). Liquid products include Sevin,<br />

Spectracide or Excite. A liquid spray product works quicker, but<br />

a granular product allows for deeper penetration over time to<br />

occur. Be sure to water your lawn areas thoroughly 2-3 days<br />

before applying any treatment as this helps bring the larvae to<br />

the surface, closer to the chemical being applied. These same<br />

products can also be used for grub worm infestations, which<br />

can be especially damaging. Be sure to apply the treatment 3 times over a 21 day<br />

period (once every 7 days) to kill all developmental levels of this pest. Additional<br />

information can be obtained at the following sites:<br />

SEPTEMBER GARDENING TIPS<br />

FLOWERS<br />

• Get ready for October now - lay Bluebonnet and Indian Paintbrush seed down in<br />

late <strong>September</strong> or early October so you will achieve blooms in the spring. Seedlings<br />

need to take root and establish a root base in the fall and getting the seeds to<br />

germinate is necessary to achieve this. Getting seed into the ground before the soil<br />

temperatures fall below 70 degrees is imperative.<br />

• Angelonia and various wildflowers will continue to do well through the end of the<br />

year if cared for properly. Water deeply, but not excessively.<br />

• Irritated that your Vincas or New Guinea Impatiens appeared to rot and not thrive<br />

this summer? Fungus likely took hold as with the hot weather you were keeping<br />

them adequately watered to prevent shriveling. Take care to not over-water or water<br />

these flowers in the evening. Apply adequate mulch around the base of the flowers<br />

and prevent water from splashing onto the leaves as fungus spores from the soil can<br />

be lifted up and infect the leafy areas.<br />

• Do not place any removed plants that displayed fungus/rot into a compost pile<br />

as the fungus will thrive and be carried into the soil once you apply the decaying<br />

material from the compost pile in the future.<br />

MULCH ALONG FENCES<br />

Please take care to not have mulch piled up against your cedar fence above the<br />

lower horizontal rot board. Do not allow the mulch to sit up against the vertical<br />

pickets as this causes premature rotting. As many of you know a survey was sent<br />

out recently regarding fence replacement. Let’s all do our part in making our cedar<br />

fencing last as long as possible! Proper irrigation adjustments that would prevent<br />

water soaking your fence every time your sprinklers come on is a step in the right<br />

direction. Remember, water promotes wood rot.<br />

Remember that school is back in session now. Please set irrigation timers so that<br />

they do not come on during times children are headed to or from the bus stop areas.<br />

Drive carefully and slow down!<br />

CFISD BRINGS SAFETY AND SECURITY TO<br />

FOREFRONT WITH <strong>2018</strong>-2019 ACTION PLAN<br />

Following a summer of planning, the Cypress-Fairbanks ISD safety and<br />

security committee unveiled its <strong>2018</strong>-2019 Safety and Security Action<br />

Plan at the Board of Trustees committee-of-the-whole meeting on Aug. 9 th .<br />

Comprised of representatives of the CFISD leadership team, the committee<br />

hosted a series of meetings throughout June and July to review current<br />

security initiatives that are already in place as well as explore what<br />

additional layers could be implemented for the district this year. Featuring<br />

roundtable discussions with experts as well as input from all campus<br />

principals and the Community Leadership Committee, the meetings<br />

resulted in an action plan focused on prevention of, identification and<br />

intervention of and response to potential security threats during a time<br />

when the nationwide focus is on school safety.<br />

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s School and Firearm Safety Action Plan, released<br />

on May 30 th , was used by the committee as a baseline to review school<br />

safety and implement recommended strategies.<br />

The following summary of the safety and security committee’s action plan<br />

can be found in more detail on the district website under the “Safety for<br />

All” block:<br />

Two police officers will transition into mental health officer positions<br />

Safety and security upgrades funded by the 2014 Bond Program continue<br />

to roll out at campuses, including secured entry vestibules, bulletresistant<br />

glass, additional security cameras and emergency call stations.<br />

year and provide updates and reports to the Board of Trustees twice a<br />

year. All campuses will continue to implement and practice emergency<br />

operations plans, based on a template provided by the Texas School<br />

Safety Center. All campus and district administrators will be trained in the<br />

Standard Response Protocol and Standard Reunification Method prior to<br />

the start of the school year.<br />

All staff members will receive active shooter training prior to the start of the<br />

Send your kids to school with a nutritious<br />

breakfast and they might come home with<br />

better test scores and fewer behavioral<br />

problems. There’s no doubt about it -<br />

breakfast is a big deal. Decades of research<br />

have shown that kids who make this meal a<br />

habit have better diets, healthier bodies,<br />

higher test scores, lighter moods and more<br />

mental stamina. No matter how hectic your<br />

mornings are, it’s worth taking the time to<br />

make sure your kids get good food before<br />

school starts.<br />

Does breakfast really make a difference?<br />

Food fuels the body with glucose, the main<br />

energy source for the mind and muscles. This<br />

refueling is especially important in the<br />

morning because the body hasn’t had any<br />

food since the night before. Children’s daily<br />

nutrient intake also tends to be higher when<br />

they eat breakfast, according to the American<br />

Dietetic Association (ADA). Whole-grain cereal<br />

with milk and a glass of citrus juice, for<br />

example, delivers lots of vitamin C,<br />

calcium, thiamin, riboflavin, fiber, iron<br />

and folate.<br />

Children who eat breakfast are also<br />

more likely to have lower blood<br />

cholesterol levels and are less likely to<br />

gain weight, miss school or visit the<br />

school nurse than children who don’t<br />

have a morning meal.<br />

Make a breakfast plan<br />

Mornings can often be the busiest<br />

part of the day. To help make sure<br />

breakfast stays on your family’s<br />

schedule no matter how pressed for<br />

time you are, try these tips from the<br />

ADA and the American Academy of<br />

Pediatrics (AAP).<br />

• Set your table the night before. Save<br />

yourself a few precious minutes in the<br />

morning by setting out dishes, cereal,<br />

bagels, bread, fruit or instant breakfast<br />

mix before you go to bed.<br />

• Use last night’s leftovers. Don’t fret if<br />

it’s not traditional breakfast food. A<br />

slice of pizza or macaroni and cheese<br />

warmed up in the microwave can still<br />

provide needed nutrients.<br />

• Keep your cupboards and fridge stocked<br />

with quick, healthy breakfast foods, such<br />

as granola bars, bagels, bananas, yogurt,<br />

cottage cheese, dried fruit, instant<br />

oatmeal, whole-wheat toaster waffles and<br />

fruit or vegetable juice.<br />

• Be flexible. If your child can’t or won’t eat<br />

first thing in the morning, offer fruit juice<br />

at home and pack a breakfast to go.<br />

English muffins or bagels with peanut<br />

butter, a low-fat cheese sandwich or<br />

whole-wheat banana nut bread will travel<br />

well. You can also ask if your child can<br />

have breakfast at school-many school<br />

cafeterias offer morning meals.<br />

The best breakfasts include foods with<br />

carbohydrates, proteins and fats. This type<br />

of meal can satisfy hunger and maintain<br />

blood sugar levels for hours. Sugary foods<br />

cause a quick rise in blood sugar and<br />

energy that fizzles out in about one hour.<br />

The bottom line on breakfast<br />

A morning meal gives kids an edge on<br />

hunger, energy and brainpower. Even if it<br />

means setting alarm clocks 20 minutes<br />

early, find a way to make breakfast a<br />

regular at your house-your kids aren’t<br />

ready for school without it.<br />

Time now to make plans for fall landscaping projects.<br />

• Clean up flowerbeds of fallen foliage, yellowed leaves and dead wood. Light green leaves may<br />

signify lack of iron (chlorosis). Correct with iron cheleates.<br />

• Cut off old dead foliage on irises. Scratch in a little bone meal around the roots.<br />

• Prune roses to reshape and groom plants for fall growth. Follow up with a dose of fertilizer the<br />

first week of <strong>September</strong>.<br />

• Plants come out of summer rest and go crazy. Insect populations explode as we get into cooler<br />

temperatures. Diseases that have been dormant wake up.<br />

- Citrus, croton, avocado and mango are susceptible to spider mites and thrips. Discourage them<br />

with a strong jet of water from a hose directed to the undersides of the leaves.<br />

- Hibiscus, citrus, palms, gardenia and ixora are susceptible to scale and mealybug.<br />

• Winter vegetable gardens and perennials get planted.<br />

• Wait until November to plant petunias and pansies.<br />

• Fire ants baits should be put out in <strong>September</strong>-October to lessen the number of eggs that make<br />

it to Spring.<br />

• St. Augustine grass gets its fall fertilizer during <strong>September</strong>. Continue to mow at maximum height.<br />

You want to leave a lot of leaf surface to produce carbohydrate reserves for the winter.<br />

• Keep an eye out for sod webworms. First sign of them is grass that appears to stop growing. You<br />

need to get them early for biological controls to work. When the caterpillars are only 1/4 inch,<br />

Bacillus thuringiensis applications can slow them. Bt is a bacteria that works on the caterpillars’<br />

digestive systems and makes them stop feeding. Do the application late in the day. The larvae feed<br />

at night and you want them to get nice fresh Bt.<br />

• When the heat and drought end, the weather could bring brown patch disease in the St. Augustine<br />

grass. Watch for yellowish spots if the nights drop into the 60’s and days stay in the 80’s.<br />

• Get any pruning of hedges and such done now. You want the flush of new growth to be hardenedoff<br />

before the end of October. Tree pruning should be put off until winter, when the trees are<br />

dormant.<br />

• Pre-emerge herbicide applications targeting annual bluegrass and the earlier-germinating winter<br />

broadleaf weeds needed to be put out starting in mid-August.<br />

APPLE DUMPLING<br />

You could make this on National Apple Dumpling Day <strong>September</strong> 17 th !<br />

INGREDIENTS:<br />

1 pastry for double-crust pie<br />

6 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and cored<br />

1/2 cup butter<br />

3/4 cup brown sugar<br />

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon<br />

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg<br />

3 cups water<br />

2 cups white sugar<br />

1 teaspoon vanilla extract<br />

DIRECTIONS:<br />

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a 9x13 inch pan.<br />

On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry into a large rectangle, about 24 by 16 inches. Cut<br />

into 6 square pieces. Place an apple on each pastry square with the cored opening facing<br />

upward. Cut butter into 8 pieces. Place 1 piece of butter in the opening of each apple; reserve<br />

remaining butter for sauce. Divide brown sugar between apples, poking some inside each<br />

cored opening and the rest around the base of each apple. Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg<br />

over the apples.<br />

With slightly wet fingertips, bring one corner of pastry square up to the top of the apple, then<br />

bring the opposite corner to the top and press together. Bring up the two remaining corners<br />

and seal. Slightly pinch the dough at the sides to completely seal in the apple. Repeat with<br />

the remaining apples. Place in prepared baking dish.<br />

In a saucepan, combine water, white sugar, vanilla extract and reserved butter. Place over<br />

medium heat and bring to a boil in a large saucepan. Boil for 5 minutes or until sugar is<br />

dissolved. Carefully pour over dumplings.<br />

Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes. Place each apple dumpling in a dessert bowl<br />

and spoon some sauce over the top.<br />
