El Dorado County_Foothills_Style Magazine - November 2018
Food is more than just fuel. It’s a social centerpiece and provides a foundation for some of our fondest, funniest, and most-talked about memories. And in this month’s issue, we have plenty of pieces focused around it, beginning with our feature, Top Chefs (page 29), where Luna Anona introduces you to 10 of our region’s culinary tastemakers—each with their own signature cooking style and skill set. Though the types of cuisine they dish out vastly vary, all of them share a passion for preparing mouthwatering plates. Learn all about them, including their food philosophies, favorite restaurants, top cooking tips, and how they rose to the top, then stop by their respective eateries to taste the fruits of their labor. Whatever your calendar looks like these next 30 days, I hope it’s filled with good friends, good food, and good times. Cheers!

Giving vs. Receiving<br />
8 “Give something to<br />
someone with these two<br />
guidelines: First, give to<br />
someone who doesn’t<br />
know you. Second, give to<br />
someone who can’t repay<br />
you. Reciprocal giving is<br />
great—we lean strongly<br />
into that at Christmas—<br />
but giving to someone<br />
who can’t repay you tests<br />
the belief that it is indeed<br />
more blessed to give than<br />
to receive.”—Brad Franklin,<br />

Count Your Blessings<br />
9 “Focus on what you<br />
have instead of what you<br />
don’t have to combat any<br />
negative thinking. Express<br />
gratitude for the things you<br />
have, and do something<br />
for those less fortunate.”—<br />
Therese Sorrentino, LMFT<br />

Freezer Meals<br />
10 “Fall is a great time<br />
for fresh fruits and veggies.<br />
Cook and freeze meals now<br />
to enjoy fall’s freshness<br />
during the season’s busiest<br />
times.”—Ann Vezey,<br />
Corporate Group Exercise<br />
Director, Spare Time Clubs<br />
Food is Fuel<br />
1 “Sticking to a healthy<br />
diet is a key component of<br />
managing stress. Giving<br />
your body proper food will<br />
give you the energy you<br />
need.”—Rachael Dardano,<br />
Owner and Holistic Health<br />
Coach, Internal Wisdom<br />
Balance Your Plate<br />
12 “When you do sit<br />
down for a holiday meal,<br />
load your plate with<br />
veggies and protein first.<br />
Hopefully your first round<br />
fills you up, so when you<br />
go back for some carbs, you<br />
won’t overindulge.”—Mark<br />

Dessert Picks<br />
13 “Pick your three<br />
favorite desserts ahead of<br />
time and tell yourself you’ll<br />
stick to only those. This will<br />
help with portion control<br />
and keep you from grazing<br />
the table!”—Kori Polee,<br />
Nutritionist and Exercise<br />

Hydrate<br />
“Cool winter air<br />
carries less moisture than<br />
warm air does, so it’s<br />
[imperative] to drink lots<br />
of water. And remember:<br />
Alcohol and coffee are<br />
dehydrating, so drink extra<br />
water if you enjoy an adult<br />
beverage or caffeine.”—<br />

FITNESS<br />
Sneaky Steps<br />
15 “If you can’t make it<br />
to the gym, find other ways<br />
to burn calories. Examples<br />
are speed-walking through<br />
the mall while shopping<br />
for holiday gifts, parking<br />
further away, and taking<br />
the stairs instead of<br />
elevators and escalators.”—<br />
Lisa Robinson, General<br />
Manager, Roseville Health<br />
& Wellness Center<br />
Fitness Friends<br />
16 “Find a fitness buddy<br />
or fitness support group of<br />
any kind—whether it’s a<br />
friend who will keep you<br />
accountable, a running<br />
partner, gym buddy, group<br />
to workout with, etc.”—<br />
