Yard of the Month<br />

If you think it’s too hot for capris and too dry to grow a garden,<br />

think again. 7922 Capri Circle, the <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Garden Club’s Yard<br />

of the Month, home of Lou and David Carroll, is the exception.<br />

Their sprawling golf course, cul-de-sac setting abounds with color<br />

on all sides, an oasis featuring four colors of pentas, caladiums,<br />

lantana, red roses and lush greenery. Congrats, Carrolls!<br />

HEARTHSTONE GARDEN CLUB<br />

The first garden club meeting of the year will be Tuesday, <strong>September</strong><br />

18 th in the Ladies Locker Room of <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Country Club. Social time<br />

begins at 6:30 PM and the program and business meeting begin at 7 PM. All<br />

interested residents and friends are invited to join us.<br />

Our program for the <strong>September</strong> meeting is on Water Conservation,<br />

presented by Robert Dailey. Mr. Dailey is a Texas Master Gardener, a Texas<br />

Master Naturalist and is a member of several environmental groups.<br />

Former careers include investment banking and advertising/public<br />

relations with a focus on political campaigns. Mr. Dailey is currently a<br />

writer and gardener. He has published hundreds of articles on gardening,<br />

water conservation organic gardening, sustainability and lawn care.<br />

Also on the agenda for the meeting will be placing pre-orders for both<br />

poinsettias from The Brookwood Community and fall bedding plants<br />

from our club’s plant sale to be held Saturday, November 10 th at the<br />

park. (Watch for more information on our annual plant sale in an ad in the<br />

October issue of The <strong>Hearthstone</strong> News.)<br />

The garden club’s theme for <strong>2018</strong>-2019 is “Sharing, Caring, Growing and<br />

Going.” Plans for the year include great programs and speakers; hands-on<br />

workshops and meetings; volunteering at The Brookwood Community, Cy<br />

Hope, CAM and Legend Oaks Healthcare West Houston; beautifying our<br />

neighborhood; lots of fun field trips and much more! We would love to<br />

have you join our membership this year! For more information about our<br />

club and club membership, please contact president Jennifer Hydes at<br />

jhydes@att.net.<br />

DELINQUENT ASSESSMENTS<br />

Assessments that have not been paid for <strong>2018</strong> and prior years are now<br />

seriously delinquent. Many accounts have been turned over to legal for<br />

collections. The Board has made a recent decision to use a collection<br />

agency, Recovery Solutions Group, LLC, in an effort to collect past due<br />

accounts.<br />

STOP THAT BARKING<br />

Many dogs left alone all day get lonely, bored and restless. Many find relief<br />

in barking. Some respond noisily to any and all activity. But, nothing is as<br />

annoying as incessant barking - even for dog lovers. If your dog is a yapper<br />

or a yowler, please consider some of these bark-abatement ideas to keep<br />

the noise down in your area. Your neighbors will thank you!<br />

• Training. Always the first recommendation for any behavioral problem!<br />

Help is as close as the Yellow Pages. Training not only helps your dog,<br />

you’ll be surprised how much it helps you, too. You may get some insight<br />

into why your dog barks so much or what it is trying to communicate.<br />

• Citronella collars. A humane alternative to the electric-shock, antibarking<br />

collar and costs about the same. Available on the web and in pet<br />

stores.<br />

• Confinement. Sometimes simply bringing an outspoken dog indoors or<br />

confining it to a crate can cut down on the disturbance to neighbors.<br />

• For inside dogs, reduce stimulus. Close drapes to help muffle street noise<br />

or leave a radio on to mask it.<br />

• Companionship. Dogs are pack animals; they need companionship - a<br />

cat, bird or another dog. Consider a mid-day visit from a pet-sitting service<br />

or drop your pooch off at a friend’s place or a day-care facility once or<br />

twice a week.<br />

Keep in mind that dogs who bark from loneliness or boredom, may not<br />

do it when you are home. Meanwhile, your neighbors may be getting<br />

serenaded while you are away.<br />

The Harris County Constable’s Office, Precinct 5 is now offering a class<br />

courses available. It’s a program based on realistic self-defense<br />

tactics and techniques. It is a comprehensive self-defense course for<br />

women that begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction and<br />

avoidance, while progressing on to the basics of hands-on defensive<br />

training. If you’re interested in more information and signing up, go to this<br />

link:<br />

www.constablepct5.com/2016/06/16/rad-classes-available<br />

Make sure if you or your family goes on vacation to put in a “Vacation<br />

Watch” with our department. That way you’ll know your house is being<br />

watched by our patrol deputies. You can fill out a vacation watch form<br />

online here:<br />

www.constablepct5.com/online-forms<br />

Or you can call our dispatch at 281-463-6666.<br />

HEARTHSTONE STREETLIGHTS<br />

The <strong>Hearthstone</strong> HOA coordinates maintenance of all the streetlights<br />

throughout the community. This includes the “cobra head” lights like you<br />

see along many streets and highways, as well as the decorative light poles<br />

along Huffmeister and in some of the neighborhoods.<br />

Cobra head streetlights need to be reported to CenterPoint, using the pole<br />

number, which is the “address” for the light. It is a six digit number facing<br />

the street. You can report streetlights that are not working or staying on<br />

during the day at http://cnp.centerpointenergy.com/outage (Google<br />

streetlight outage) or give us the pole number and we will do it for you.<br />

Outages or problems with decorative streetlights should be reported to<br />

Inframark at 281-870-0585. Please note the exact intersection or closest<br />

address. The association has a contractor doing a monthly nighttime<br />

inspection for lights that are out, but if you see a problem, please report it,<br />

so we can achieve our goal to keep all the lights on all the time.<br />

TRASH DAYS<br />

Trash days are Tuesdays and Fridays with recycling pickup on Fridays. If<br />

you have questions, call 281-368-8397.<br />

BOARD MEETING<br />

Board Meetings are now bi-monthly, usually on the 3 rd Wednesday at 7:00<br />

PM. <strong>Hearthstone</strong> Country Club.<br />

LOST & FOUND PETS IN HEARTHSTONE<br />

Folks in <strong>Hearthstone</strong> are very helpful in getting lost pets reunited with<br />

their owners, but all dog owners should ensure that there is a tag on each<br />

dog with their name, address and phone number. Local pet stores have<br />

machines that make tags like this while you wait. At least that would help<br />

found dogs get back home quicker and with less trauma.<br />

WEBSITE<br />

Please visit the Association’s website. With a more attractive, easy to use<br />

design, the site contains a lot of useful information, including HOA news,<br />

us know. The only thing that has not changed is the address. It is still at<br />

www.hearthstonehoa.org.<br />

SAFETY TIPS - AVOID BEING A VICTIM<br />

1. Call the constable’s office anytime you see a suspicious person and do<br />

not let race, age or gender influence you calling (a suspicious person is<br />

anyone you do not recognize on your street).<br />

2. Call the constable’s office when you see a suspicious vehicle (any vehicle<br />

parked in front of your neighbor’s home or driving around your street that<br />

you don’t recognize).<br />

3. Always keep all your doors and windows locked even when you are at<br />

home.<br />

4. Always keep your overhead garage door in the down position.<br />

5. Remember neighbors looking out for neighbors are how the police<br />

catch the bad guys.<br />

6. Make sure to do a vacation watch whenever you go out of town.<br />

7. If someone comes to your door, always go to the door and acknowledge<br />

that you are there and remember to never open the door for anyone that<br />

you do not know. The bad guys in almost all cases do not want you to be<br />

home. Then always call the constable’s office so that we can check them<br />

out. When they leave your house, they are going to your neighbors.<br />

8. If you have children that stay at home alone, no matter what their age,<br />

they need to go to the door and have a preplanned story for whoever is<br />

there (my dad is working on the computer, he says to come back later).<br />

Then have them call the constable’s office.<br />

9. Never do business with people you don not know and trust. Never open<br />

the door for solicitors. If no one in the neighborhood buys anything from<br />

them, the companies that they work for will quit sending them into your<br />

subdivision.<br />

10. Always lock your vehicles and never leave anything of value in plain<br />

sight (covering up an item with a jacket doesn’t count).<br />

Our dispatch number is 281-463-6666 (please put this number in your cell<br />

phone as 911 constable or A constable so that it is one of the first contacts).<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 />

PREVENTION<br />

The CFISD police department has increased its number of<br />

commissioned police officers from 86 in 2017 to 108 for <strong>2018</strong>-2019.<br />

The department will also implement three K-9 units trained in<br />

narcotics and nitrate detection. Two police officers will transition into<br />

mental health officer positions to assist the guidance and counseling<br />

and psychological services departments in addressing mental health<br />

concerns on campuses.<br />

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

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

bullet-resistant glass, additional security cameras and emergency<br />

call stations. Panic buttons will be installed in all portable buildings<br />

in <strong>2018</strong>-2019.<br />

All students in grades 6-12 will be required to wear a student ID badge<br />

during the instructional day and will join elementary students in<br />

wearing the badges on board school buses. All school visitors will be<br />

distinguished by a visitor badge issued at check-in.<br />

Backpacks worn by secondary students on school property are required<br />

to be clear backpacks. Belongings carried inside or outside of the<br />

backpack are limited to no more than two non-transparent 6- by 9-inch<br />

purse(s) or similar bag(s). Approved extracurricular bags including<br />

instrument cases are permitted in the building but must be stored in<br />

respective areas during the instructional day. Visitors to Cy-Fair FCU and<br />

Pridgeon stadiums in <strong>2018</strong>-2019 will be required to limit bags to clear<br />

bags or a non-transparent 6-by-9-inch purse or similar bag.<br />

All campuses will implement procedures for limiting entry points<br />

for faculty, students and visitors. The district will also continue to<br />

explore the possibility of identifying exit-only doors and removing<br />

door handles on certain doors. Food deliveries for students will be<br />

prohibited by fast food delivery drivers.<br />

8<br />

IDENTIFICATION AND INTERVENTION<br />

Campuses will continue to advertise the Cy-Fair Tipline for students, an<br />

internal and anonymous reporting system. A visible button will be added<br />

to each campus website for easy sharing with the CFPD and campus<br />

administration. The CFPD will continue to work with the Houston Regional<br />

Intelligence Service Center to identify potential threats on social media.<br />

Two mental health intervention teams, each consisting of two licensed<br />

professional counselors, a licensed specialist in school psychology and a<br />

mental health school resource officer, have been developed to assist students,<br />

administration and parents in developing a positive and proactive plan for<br />

mental health. All teachers, counselors, district and campus administrators,<br />

transportation and community programs staff will undergo mental health<br />

assessment training prior to the start of the school year. All elementary<br />

and secondary counselors will be trained on completing threat assessment<br />

interviews.<br />

RESPONSE<br />

CFISD’s school safety and security committee will meet three times per year<br />

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

campuses will continue to implement and practice emergency operations<br />

plans, based on a template provided by the Texas School Safety Center. All<br />

campus and district administrators will be trained in the Standard Response<br />

Protocol and Standard Reunification Method prior to the start of the school<br />

year.<br />

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

school year, while all CFPD officers are required to complete active shooter<br />

trainings such as ALERRT and ERASE as well as crisis intervention training.<br />

A mental health crisis response team consisting of licensed behavior health<br />

professionals has been formed to respond during critical incidents.<br />

Skinner Memorial Scholarship of the Cy-Fair Educational Foundation. In<br />

the 20 years since the tournament was established, more than $111,000<br />

The Cypress-Fairbanks Educational Foundation<br />

Adam’s birthday and a large portion has been donated from some of the<br />

proceeds from the Adam J. Skinner Memorial Golf Tournament every year.<br />

The Skinners wanted the scholarship to be given to a student who emulates<br />

some of Adam’s traits and interests, someone who is outgoing, optimistic<br />

and extremely energetic, possibly playing team sports, choir, high school<br />

drama, debate or Boy Scouts of America participation. Thanks to these golf<br />

items and Chinese raffle items. Proceeds from the auction and raffle will<br />

help us cover the cost of flu shots for those in need. The band SoulShine<br />

Earns anA<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 />

FOSTER CHILDREN: PREPARATION FOR ADULT LIVING (PAL)<br />

When foster children reach age 18, they are considered independent.<br />

That’s difficult for kids who have been wards of the state, with necessities<br />

arranged by caseworkers with state funds. Now they’ll have to figure out<br />

how to organize themselves and make their money last a whole month.<br />

Fortunately, Child protective Services offers them a program to help prepare<br />

for independence: Preparation for Adult Living (PAL). The year-long course<br />

culminates in an all-day workshop hosted by the National Council for Jewish<br />

Women (NCJW). The course is held at Junior Achievement’s BizTown, using<br />

computer kiosks sponsored by local businesses.<br />

Want to help with PAL or other NCJW programs that help change lives with<br />

hands-on community service? Contact info@ncjwhouston.org or see www.<br />

NEW BEST FRIEND AND FAMILY MEMBER!<br />

Loving Arms Pet Placement has an assortment of wonderful dogs and cats<br />

hoping for their forever homes. We have all different types of small to large<br />

dogs, mixed breeds and many wonderful cats to choose from. We are a<br />

foster-based rescue for dogs and cats. If you are not ready to commit to<br />

adopting a dog or cat permanently, the animals also need foster families.<br />

Besides providing food, water and a safe place to sleep, foster families<br />

socialize the animals so they are people friendly. Include the animal in<br />

your daily home life inside your home. Get to know them as individuals so<br />

you can share personality traits, likes/dislikes, anecdotes. Treat the animal<br />

like your own and train him/her, if possible. Although you may feel sadness<br />

when your foster animal is adopted, please know that your efforts helped<br />

to prepare the cat or dog for his/her forever home. Visit Loving Arms Pet<br />

Placement website at www.lovingarmspetplacement.com or visit us at<br />

SEPTEMBER IS NATIONAL<br />

CHOLESTEROL EDUCATION MONTH<br />

a while, these deposits narrow your arteries, putting you at risk for heart<br />

disease and stroke.<br />

Children, young adults and older Americans can have high cholesterol.<br />

Learn how to prevent high cholesterol and know what your cholesterol<br />

levels mean.<br />

<strong>September</strong> is National Cholesterol Education Month, a good time to get<br />

your blood cholesterol checked and take steps to lower it if it is high.<br />

National Cholesterol Education Month is also a good time to learn about<br />

lipid profiles and about food and lifestyle choices that help you reach<br />

personal cholesterol goals. Below you will find some information about<br />

cholesterol and a summary of CDC programs that address cholesterol<br />

across the country.<br />

How many Americans have high cholesterol?<br />

More than 102 million American Adults (20 years or older) have total<br />

cholesterol levels at or above 200 mg/dL, which is above healthy levels.<br />

More than 35 million of these people have levels of 240 mg/dL or higher,<br />

which puts them at high risk for heart disease.<br />

What is cholesterol?<br />

Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance found in your body and many<br />

foods. Your body needs cholesterol to function normally and makes all<br />

that you need. Too much cholesterol can build up in your arteries. After<br />

36<br />

How do you know if your cholesterol is high?<br />

High cholesterol usually doesn’t have any symptoms. As a result, many<br />

people do not know that their cholesterol levels are too high. However,<br />

doctors can do a simple blood test to check your cholesterol. High<br />

cholesterol can be controlled through lifestyle changes or if it is not<br />

enough, through medications. It’s important to check your cholesterol<br />

levels. High cholesterol is a major risk factor for heart disease, the leading<br />

cause of death in the United States.<br />

How often should you have your cholesterol checked?<br />

The National Cholesterol Education Program (NCEP) recommends that<br />

adults aged 20 years or older have their cholesterol checked every 5 years.<br />

Preventive guidelines for cholesterol screening among young adults differ,<br />

but experts agree on the need to screen young adults who have other risk<br />

factors for coronary heart disease: obesity, smoking, high blood pressure,<br />

diabetes and family history<br />

Less than half of young adults who have these risk factors don’t get<br />

cholesterol screening even though up to a quarter of them have elevated<br />

cholesterol.<br />

A simple blood test called a lipoprotein profile can measure your total<br />

cholesterol levels, including LDL (low-density lipoprotein or “bad”<br />

cholesterol), HDL (high-density lipoprotein or “good” cholesterol) and<br />

triglycerides. The following chart shows optimal lipid levels for adults:<br />

Desirable Cholesterol Levels<br />

Total cholesterol<br />

Low LDL (“bad”) cholesterol<br />

High HDL (“good”) cholesterol<br />

Triglycerides<br />

Less than 170 mg/dL<br />

Less than 110 mg/dL<br />

35 mg/dL or higher<br />

Less than 150 mg/dL<br />

Can children and adolescents have high cholesterol?<br />

Yes. High cholesterol can develop in early childhood and adolescence and<br />

your risk increases as your weight increases. In the United States, more<br />

than one-fifth (20%) of youth aged 12-19 years have at least one abnormal<br />

lipid level. It is important for children over 2 years of age to have their<br />

cholesterol checked, if they are overweight/obese, have a family history<br />

of high cholesterol, a family history of heart disease, diabetes, high blood<br />

pressure or certain chronic condition (chronic kidney disease, chronic<br />

inflammatory diseases, congenital heart disease and childhood cancer<br />

The National Cholesterol Education Program has developed specific<br />

recommendations about cholesterol treatment for people at increased<br />

risk, such as those with a family history of high cholesterol or heart disease.<br />

If you have high cholesterol, what can you do to lower it?<br />

Your doctor may prescribe medications to treat your high cholesterol. In<br />

addition, you can lower your cholesterol levels through lifestyle changes:<br />

• Low-fat and high-fiber food (Eat more fresh fruits, fresh vegetables and<br />

whole grains).<br />

• For adults, getting at least 2 hours and 30 minutes of moderate or 1 hour<br />

and 15 minutes of vigorous physical activity a week. For those aged 6-17,<br />

getting 1 hour or more of physical activity each day.<br />

• Maintain a healthy weight.<br />

• Don’t smoke or quit if you smoke.<br />

CDC Programs That Address Cholesterol<br />

National Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention Program<br />

Since 1998, CDC has funded state health departments’ efforts to reduce<br />

the number of people with heart disease or stroke. Health departments in<br />

41 states and the District of Columbia currently receive funding for these<br />

activities. These programs promote policy and system level changes at the<br />

state and community level to support heart-healthy and stroke-free living<br />

and working conditions.<br />

WISEWOMAN<br />

The WISEWOMAN program helps women with little or no health insurance<br />

reduce their risk for heart disease, stroke and other chronic diseases. The<br />

program helps women aged 40 to 64 years quit smoking, improve their<br />

diet and increase physical activity. WISEWOMAN also offers tests for high<br />

blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes. CDC funds 21 WISEWOMAN<br />

projects in 19 states and two tribal organizations.<br />

Lipid Standardization Program<br />

CDC’s Environmental Health Laboratory serves as the world reference<br />

laboratory for measuring cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density<br />

lipoproteins and low-density lipoproteins. Doctors require accurate<br />

measurements to diagnose and properly treat people with high<br />

cholesterol levels. The laboratory helps ensure the quality of about 35<br />

million cholesterol measurements made annually in the United States.<br />

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

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

Light green leaves may signify lack of iron (chlorosis). Correct with iron<br />

cheleates.<br />

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

roots.<br />

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

dose of fertilizer the first week of <strong>September</strong>.<br />

• Plants come out of summer rest and go crazy. Insect populations explode<br />

as we get into cooler temperatures. Diseases that have been dormant wake<br />

up.<br />

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

thrips. Discourage them with a strong jet of water from a hose directed to the<br />

undersides of the leaves.<br />

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

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<br />

number of eggs that make it to Spring.<br />

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

mow at maximum height. You want to leave a lot of leaf surface to produce<br />

carbohydrate reserves for the winter.<br />

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

to stop growing. You need to get them early for biological controls to work.<br />

When the caterpillars are only 1/4 inch, Bacillus thuringiensis applications<br />

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

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

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

• When the heat and drought end, the weather could bring brown patch<br />

disease in the St. Augustine grass. Watch for yellowish spots if the nights<br />

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<br />

growth to be hardened-off before the end of October. Tree pruning should<br />

be put off until winter, when the trees are dormant.<br />

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

earlier-germinating winter broadleaf weeds needed to be put out starting<br />

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 />
