We’re soon approaching our 22nd year of producing <strong>STYLE</strong><br />

Magazine, and there are many people to thank, but I'll begin<br />

with the most important people: our readers. We’re most<br />

grateful for your support.<br />

Magazines can<br />

mean different things to different<br />

people—but, ultimately, a publication<br />

like <strong>STYLE</strong> is a composite of its<br />

partners, readers, and our coverage<br />

of the community. For over 260<br />

consecutive months, <strong>STYLE</strong> has<br />

strived to provide local information<br />

and original editorial content about<br />

the people, places, and businesses that<br />

make our region so extraordinary.<br />

Our success is always measured<br />

by reader satisfaction and their<br />

involvement with each month's<br />

glossy print publication. We continue<br />

listening and working hard to deliver<br />

a quality product to the community<br />

at no charge. Of course, being free<br />

is possible thanks to our ability to<br />

attract and partner with the best local businesses and their marketing dollars.<br />

We’re extremely grateful for these partnerships; it truly forms a beneficial cycle<br />

of “magazine,” “local business,” and “reader” that continues to benefit all parties.<br />

My husband, Kyle, and I became the new owners/publishers of <strong>STYLE</strong> earlier<br />

this year, after having worked for the founders<br />

and previous publishers, Terry and Wendy, for<br />

BREAKFAST •<br />

BRUNCH •<br />

LUNCH<br />

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN<br />

WITH <strong>STYLE</strong>?<br />

I started as an intern in March 2010<br />

(holy moly!).<br />

WHAT DOES YOUR JOB ENTAIL?<br />

What doesn’t it entail? A mix of issue planning,<br />

article assigning, writing, and editing; I also manage<br />

our freelance writers and staff photographer and try<br />

my best to ensure each issue’s editorial is error-free<br />

and engaging. There’s never a dull day in this role (or<br />

at this company)!<br />

BEST/FAVORITE PART<br />

OF THE JOB?<br />

The work perks (travel, products, event tickets) and<br />

flexibility can’t be beat. I also love connecting with<br />

our community and constantly getting to flex my<br />

creative muscles!<br />

WHAT DO YOU ENJOY DOING<br />

OUTSIDE OF WORK?<br />

Spending time with my family and friends<br />

(preferably outside), working out (yoga and<br />

running), cooking, and checking out local breweries,<br />

coffee shops, and restaurants.<br />

T<strong>EL</strong>L US ABOUT YOUR FAMILY—<br />

ANY KIDS OR PETS?<br />

I have a hilarious, kind-hearted husband—who doubles<br />

as my best friend—and two incredibly lively (and<br />

lovely!) little girls: Juniper and Phoebe.<br />

WHAT'S ONE INTERESTING FACT<br />

ABOUT YOU?<br />

I skipped second grade.<br />

WHAT’S THE NEXT PLACE ON YOUR<br />

TRAV<strong>EL</strong> BUCKET LIST?<br />

Kaua'i and Copenhagen!<br />

ARE YOU CURRENTLY BINGE-WATCHING<br />

ANY SHOWS?<br />

I can barely find the time (or energy) for TV, these<br />

days, but did recently finish The Bear; I always love<br />

an Anthony Bourdain (RIP) rerun (Parts Unknown, No<br />

Reservations, or The Layover).<br />

IF YOU HAD TO EAT ONE MEAL EVERY<br />

DAY FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE, WHAT<br />

WOULD IT BE?<br />

Veggie sandwiches (extra avocado and cheese,<br />

please!) or molcajete (if you know, you know).<br />

WHAT’S ONE ITEM YOU<br />

CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT?<br />

My yoga mat. A regular practice makes me a kinder,<br />

calmer human (just ask my husband)!<br />

— Day in the Life —<br />

Paul Doherty<br />

by CAROLINE KINGS | photos by JYO BHAMIDIPATI<br />

Football season is well underway, and<br />

while we may be pinning our hopes on<br />

the Niners (once again), we shouldn’t<br />

neglect the high school teams on our<br />

doorstep. Folsom High School’s Bulldogs<br />

won their fifth state title in 2023 and<br />

are hoping for another this year. What’s<br />

behind their success? We asked head<br />

varsity football coach Paul Doherty.<br />

Tell us about your career in football<br />

and journey to coaching.<br />

I grew up in San Francisco, which is<br />

where I fell in love with football, after<br />

playing quarterback for two years in high<br />

school and competing against some of<br />

the Bay Area’s best teams.<br />

At the time (’96-’99), some big<br />

quarterback names were emerging—<br />

Danny Wuerffel, Tim Couch, Peyton<br />

Manning, and Tom Brady. My team would<br />

play at Kezar Stadium on Friday nights,<br />

wake up early for practice on Saturdays,<br />

and then find a TV to watch the Notre<br />

Dame game on.<br />

All of that—combined with my<br />

father's excitement and passion for<br />

college football, where he played<br />

quarterback—pushed me to pursue<br />

playing after high school. I doggedly<br />

sought out a school and landed at<br />

Menlo College (Division III). I played<br />

my first year for Doug Cosbie who<br />

became my lifelong mentor; he<br />

recognized my passion for learning<br />

and for the sophistication and strategy<br />

of the game and steered me into<br />

coaching. In 2006, he hired me to<br />

coach at Sacramento High School and<br />

introduced me to then Folsom High<br />

School coach Troy Taylor.<br />

I started coaching in Folsom in<br />

2018. My wife, Kari, and I moved to<br />

the area in 2020, and it's been the best<br />

experience for our young family! We<br />

have two incredibly active boys, Luke<br />

and Liam, in elementary school; Kari<br />

teaches at Sutter Middle School. It's a<br />

big deal that our whole family can be<br />

intrinsically involved in everything<br />

Folsom—and everything Folsom<br />

football—every day!<br />

What does a typical day look like?<br />

Kari and I try to share drop off at<br />

elementary, but I often get pulled into<br />

Folsom High School early for a variety of<br />

tasks or to wrap up the previous football<br />

day. After teaching three traditional PE<br />

classes, I prep for the fifth and sixth period<br />

football classes that prime the kids for a<br />

full practice after school.<br />

Depending on the day, we finish<br />

anywhere from 5-7 p.m., and then I<br />

transition to the youth field where I coach<br />

the junior pee wee team (including my<br />

oldest son!) alongside Jordan Banning,<br />

associate head coach at Folsom High<br />

School. I admit, it might be the best part<br />

of the day, as my youngest can be found<br />

frolicking on the sidelines, and my wife<br />

is usually in attendance as the team<br />

mom. The littles provide a break from<br />

the intense nature of varsity football.<br />

It all makes for a long day—returning<br />

home at 9 p.m., only to eat dinner and<br />

start over the next day—but it fits in well<br />

with our family life at this time.<br />

You've had great success in recent<br />

seasons. How do you keep the team,<br />

department, and school focused?<br />

We live in a culture set by previous<br />

coaching regimes: Stay humble, stay<br />

hungry, and know that mature teams<br />

win championships. The kids want<br />

to get better, and clear, transparent<br />

accountability is the best medicine. We<br />

film everything at practice and games,<br />

so whether we’re coaching or correcting<br />

assignment, scheme, technique, or even<br />

body language, the feedback is usually<br />

well-received, as the kids are smart and<br />

can see it all for themselves in real time.<br />

What do you think is behind the<br />

success, aside from your coaching?<br />

The community. It starts from the top—a<br />

school district that prides itself on solid<br />

programs, education-based athletics,<br />

and other extracurricular activities,<br />

including football. The priority of balance<br />

for student athletes is made clear on<br />

campus by the principal and support<br />

staff in administration. The teachers and<br />

coaches are clearly at the heart of the<br />

program, but players, parents, sponsors,<br />

and community members all want to see<br />

these kids succeed and all have great faith<br />

in the direction we pull the team. It really<br />

is a team effort, and a K-12 program.<br />

What are your hopes for this season?<br />

I hope to create an incredible experience<br />

for the players, parents, and community.<br />

What’s your favorite restaurant?<br />

My wife and I try to make it to Scott's<br />

Seafood Roundhouse at least once a<br />

year. We also regularly indulge in Nara<br />

Sushi—it’s incredible!<br />

When you find the time, how do<br />

you relax?<br />

Time spent at home with my family<br />

is the absolute best. My wife is a<br />

regular at Powerhouse Fitness, and her<br />

experience there is the best thing for<br />

everyone in the house.<br />

Best perk of the job?<br />

The job is the perk!<br />

Spotlight on<br />

Yen-Ching Chang<br />

by JENNIFER MARAGONI<br />

Born and raised in Taiwan, Yen-Ching<br />

Chang came to the U.S. to earn her<br />

Master of Fine Arts at the Academy of Art<br />

University in San Francisco, where she<br />

studied under celebrated artists including<br />

Zhaoming Wu and Huihan Liu.<br />

“I wanted to explore different<br />

lifestyles and languages in a new cultural<br />

environment while advancing my artistic<br />

studies and creativity,” she explains. “San<br />

Francisco’s diverse art scene provided<br />

a vibrant community and countless<br />

opportunities for personal and artistic<br />

growth. Immersing myself in this<br />

environment profoundly enriched my<br />

artistic journey.”<br />

Chang describes art as her life’s<br />

journey. She credits her mentor in<br />

Taiwan, painter and educator Yim<br />

Mau-Kun, for sparking her passion for<br />

painting, shaping her foundational skills,<br />

and providing lasting inspiration. As<br />

an art teacher herself, Chang says, “It’s<br />

incredibly rewarding to see young artists<br />

and adults discover their passion and<br />

grow in confidence.”<br />

An El Dorado Hills resident since<br />

2021, Chang (yenchingchang.com) also<br />

enjoys spending time with her family,<br />

exploring nature, reading art books,<br />

and watching movies. “These activities<br />

help me unwind and often provide<br />

inspiration for my work. I believe that<br />

connecting with nature and loved ones<br />

enriches my creative process.”<br />

A member of the California Art Club<br />

and Oil Painters of America, Chang’s<br />

work is featured in their shows, as well<br />

as at exhibitions throughout the country.<br />

You describe your paintings as<br />

“reflections and celebrations of life.”<br />

Please tell us more about this.<br />

My paintings are deeply inspired by<br />

the richness of everyday life and the<br />

scenes that touch me profoundly. I find<br />

beauty and meaning in the simplest<br />

moments, whether it’s the interplay<br />

of light on a landscape, the emotions<br />

and expressions of people around me,<br />

the vibrant colors of a still life, or the<br />

quiet poetry of everyday objects. Each<br />

painting reflects these experiences,<br />

celebrating the essence of life’s diversity<br />

and the narratives that unfold in ordinary<br />

scenes. It’s this connection to life that<br />

fuels my creativity and enables me to<br />

craft visual narratives that resonate<br />

deeply with viewers.<br />

How would you describe your style?<br />

I was mostly influenced by late<br />

19th-century artists, including Ilya Repin<br />

and John Singer Sargent. As a plein-air<br />

(outdoor) painter, my work has evolved<br />

to incorporate more impressionistic<br />

Serious Topic<br />

Brown Hat<br />

When choosing a medium, I consider the subject matter I wish<br />

to explore and the emotions I want to convey. Oil paint holds a<br />

special place for me, due to its versatility and capacity to create<br />

rich textures that enhance the depth and vibrancy of my art.<br />

elements over time. Therefore, my style can be described as<br />

a blend of impressionism and realism. I aim to capture the<br />

essence and depth of my subjects through careful observation<br />

and expressive brushwork, creating dynamic and lifelike<br />

portrayals that reflect my ongoing exploration of light, color, and<br />

emotional resonance.<br />

You work in a variety of mediums—oil, gouache,<br />

watercolor, charcoal, and pencil—and on a variety of<br />

surfaces, including canvas, panel, and linen. How do you<br />

decide what materials to use?<br />

I love exploring different materials and surfaces—they each<br />

offer unique sensations and artistic challenges that keep my<br />

creative process dynamic and exciting. As an impressionismrealism<br />

painter, drawing serves as my cornerstone, enabling me<br />

to adapt to any medium once I understand its characteristics.<br />

How do you choose your subjects?<br />

It’s an intuitive process for me. I look for subjects that deeply<br />

touch me, evoking strong emotions or possessing compelling<br />

visual qualities, whether it’s a person’s expression, the mood of<br />

a landscape, or the simple beauty of a still life. The connection I<br />

feel with the subject guides my decision and fuels my passion to<br />

bring it to life on canvas. My aim is to capture their essence and<br />

explore their narrative or poetic potential through my artwork.<br />

What do you hope viewers experience through your art?<br />

I aim to evoke a sense of connection and reflection. I want<br />

viewers to feel the diverse emotions and narratives within<br />

each subject, to appreciate the beauty of everyday moments,<br />

and to discover moments of stillness and gratitude for life’s<br />

simple pleasures. My goal is nothing less than to touch the<br />

viewers’ hearts and inspire them to see the world with renewed<br />

simplicity, finding meaning in each captured moment, and<br />

experiencing a sense of peace and joy.<br />

You also teach art classes. Tell us more about this.<br />

I teach art classes to kids and adults at my atelier (studio) in El<br />

Dorado Hills. Kids’ lessons focus on nurturing creativity and selfexpression<br />

through various mediums such as drawing, painting,<br />

and 3D art. Lessons for adults focus on academic foundational<br />

learning for drawing and painting. I strive to create a fun,<br />

supportive environment where people can explore their artistic<br />

potential and develop their skills.<br />

Cancel Breast Cancer<br />

by KOURTNEY JASON<br />

Breast cancer remains a significant<br />

health challenge—being the most<br />

diagnosed cancer among women in<br />

the U.S.—aside from skin cancer. As<br />

advancements in research and treatment<br />

continue to evolve, so do the guidelines<br />

for screening and risk-reduction<br />

strategies. Considering October is Breast<br />

Cancer Awareness Month, we asked<br />

local oncologists and medical experts to<br />

share their insights on the latest breast<br />

cancer screening guidelines, advances in<br />

treatment, and the importance of getting<br />

a second opinion.<br />

SCREENING<br />

Elizabeth Morris, MD, chair of the Department<br />

of Radiology at UC Davis Health, emphasizes the<br />

importance of early detection. The United States<br />

Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recently<br />

revised its guidelines, recommending that women<br />

begin breast cancer screening at age 40, a decade<br />

earlier than the previous recommendation of 50. “The<br />

goal of breast cancer screening is to reduce deaths by<br />

detecting breast cancer early when treatment is more<br />

effective and less harmful,” Dr. Morris says.<br />

This change in guidelines is particularly crucial<br />

when considering cancer disparities. While white<br />

women are slightly more likely to develop breast<br />

cancer than Black women, Black women are more<br />

prone to aggressive, advanced-stage breast cancer,<br />

and are often diagnosed at a younger age. They’re<br />

also 40% more likely than white women to die from<br />

breast cancer. To address these inequalities, Dr.<br />

Morris advocates for annual screening, especially for<br />

women over 40, to catch the disease in its early, most<br />

treatable stages.<br />

For women with dense breasts, who represent<br />

about half of the population aged 40 and older, Dr.<br />

Morris advises considering supplemental screenings.<br />

Dense breast tissue can obscure small cancers on<br />

mammograms, making it harder to detect the disease<br />

early. Techniques like breast ultrasound, contrastenhanced<br />

mammography, or breast MRI can be<br />

particularly beneficial in these cases.<br />

| health & wellness |<br />

Rashmi Ramasubbaiah, MD,<br />

associate physician at Marshall Cancer<br />

Center and UC Davis affiliate, further<br />

supports these recommendations. She<br />

highlights the American College of<br />

Radiology’s (ACR) updated guidelines,<br />

which now recommend annual<br />

screening MRIs for women with a high<br />

risk of breast cancer, including those<br />

with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation or a<br />

history of chest radiation. “MRI cannot<br />

replace a mammogram but serves<br />

as an adjunctive tool; each imaging<br />

modality provides unique means of<br />

cancer detection,” she says.<br />

TREATMENT<br />

Breast cancer treatment has seen<br />

significant advancements in recent<br />

years, offering new hope for patients<br />

at various stages of the disease. Dr.<br />

Morris points out that at UC Davis<br />

Health, cutting-edge technologies like<br />

digital breast tomosynthesis and a<br />

high-resolution 3D breast CT scanner,<br />

developed by their biomedical<br />

engineers, are enhancing the accuracy<br />

of early detection.<br />

“Once diagnosed, patients are often<br />

given a choice between mastectomy<br />

or lumpectomy, often with radiation,”<br />

Dr. Morris says. UC Davis Health is<br />

also pioneering minimally invasive<br />

techniques, including roboticassisted<br />

surgery and “all-natural”<br />

breast reconstruction, which uses the<br />

patient’s own tissue for reshaping.<br />

Targeted therapies have<br />

revolutionized the treatment of<br />

metastatic breast cancer, according to<br />

Dr. Morris. These therapies, tailored<br />

to the specific tumor type, can slow<br />

the growth of the cancer, allowing<br />

many women to live longer with the<br />

disease. Endocrine therapy, which<br />

blocks hormone receptors on cancer<br />

cells, is another critical component of<br />

treatment, particularly for hormone<br />

receptor-positive breast cancers.<br />

Dr. Ramasubbaiah echoes the<br />

importance of personalized treatment,<br />

noting the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors for<br />

high-risk hormone receptor-positive<br />

breast cancer and immunotherapy<br />

for triple-negative breast cancers.<br />

“Breast cancer treatment is highly<br />

individualized,” she says. “And<br />

we routinely do next-generation<br />

sequencing in patients with advanced<br />

cancer to tailor therapy based on<br />

personalized DNA test results.”<br />

Mari Williams, a breast/gynecological<br />

oncology nurse navigator at Dignity<br />

Health Cancer Institute of Greater<br />

Sacramento, highlights the impact<br />

of recent advancements, including<br />

genomic profiling, targeted therapies,<br />

and immunotherapy. “These<br />

developments collectively improve<br />

survival rates, reduce side effects, and<br />

enhance the quality of life for breast<br />

cancer patients,” she says.<br />

REDUCE YOUR RISK<br />

Reducing the risk of breast cancer<br />

involves a combination of healthy<br />

lifestyle choices and, for those with a<br />

family history of the disease, genetic<br />

testing. Dr. Morris emphasizes the<br />

importance of knowing your family<br />

history and considering genetic<br />

counseling if a close relative has had<br />

breast cancer. Women with BRCA1 or<br />

BRCA2 mutations face a significantly<br />

higher risk, with 55%-72% of women<br />

with BRCA1 and 45%-69% of those<br />

with BRCA2 developing breast cancer<br />

during their lifetime.<br />

Dr. Ramasubbaiah adds that<br />

stress management, regular exercise,<br />

a healthy diet, and maintaining<br />

adequate vitamin D levels are all<br />

crucial in reducing the risk of<br />

recurrence and improving treatment<br />

outcomes. “Survivorship is extremely<br />

important,” she says, encouraging<br />

patients to listen to their bodies and<br />

not hesitate to bring up concerns with<br />

their health care providers.<br />

Williams emphasizes the<br />

importance of regular screenings<br />

and self-exams, along with lifestyle<br />

modifications like maintaining a<br />

healthy weight, limiting alcohol<br />

intake, quitting smoking, and eating a<br />

balanced diet. “Breast cancer is often<br />

treatable and curable when found<br />

early,” she says.<br />

SECOND OPINIONS MATTER<br />

Given the complexity of breast cancer<br />

diagnosis and treatment, all three<br />

experts strongly recommend seeking<br />

a second opinion. “Patients face a lot<br />

of choices,” Dr. Morris says. “And it’s<br />

important that they feel confident<br />

they are being provided the best<br />

treatment options.”<br />

Dr. Ramasubbaiah agrees, noting<br />

that a second opinion can confirm<br />

the initial diagnosis and treatment<br />

plan or offer alternative options.<br />

QLARITY BREAST<br />

IMAGING<br />

QTscan—the first noninvasive<br />

breast imaging<br />

technology that provides<br />

a true 3D image of the<br />

breast’s microanatomy<br />

down to a few hundred<br />

cells without compression<br />

or harmful radiation—is<br />

available in El Dorado<br />

Hills. FDA cleared and<br />

more accurate than<br />

mammography and<br />

hand-held ultrasounds at<br />

identifying certain breast<br />

structures, the technology<br />

is especially beneficial to<br />

women with dense breasts,<br />

those who need additional,<br />

follow-up imaging after<br />

a mammogram, or want<br />

the assurance and peace<br />

of mind due to a family<br />

history of breast cancer or<br />

genetic predisposition to<br />

the disease. Learn more at<br />

qbi.health.<br />

Williams adds that a second opinion<br />

is particularly valuable when<br />

exploring access to clinical trials<br />

or specialized treatment modalities<br />

available at tertiary care centers.<br />

Breast cancer screening, treatment,<br />

and risk reduction strategies continue<br />

to evolve, driven by ongoing research<br />

and technological advancements.<br />

By staying informed and proactive,<br />

women can take crucial steps to<br />

protect their health and improve their<br />

outcomes in the face of this disease.<br />

DISTANCE:<br />

5.7-mile loop.<br />

DIFFICULTY LEV<strong>EL</strong>:<br />

Moderate.<br />

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO:<br />

This is a popular area for<br />

hiking and running, so<br />

you'll likely encounter other<br />

people while exploring.<br />

The trail—which has an<br />

elevation gain of 1,246 feet<br />

and takes approximately<br />

three hours to complete—<br />

is open year-round, but in<br />

the winter it's not unusual<br />

for some sections to be<br />

muddy due to rainfall.<br />

Leave your pups at home,<br />

and be aware of poison oak.<br />

With three connecting<br />

trails, there are a few<br />

different ways you can<br />

start/end your journey.<br />

Begin on the Weiler Ranch<br />

Trail from either San<br />

Pedro Valley County Park<br />

parking lot or Oddstad<br />

Blvd., and you’ll quickly<br />

come upon the start of<br />

Valley View Trail. On your<br />

right you’ll find a picnic<br />

area, horseshoe pits, and<br />

bathroom facilites. You<br />

can either continue on<br />

the flat Weiler Ranch Trail<br />

(out and back) or make<br />

your way up the Valley<br />

View Trail. On Valley View<br />

Trail you'll hike up then<br />

back down to Weiler Ranch<br />

Trail, continue out, and<br />

then pick up Hazelnut Trail<br />

on your right. From this<br />

starting point it’s all uphill<br />

with multiple switchbacks.<br />

You'll pass through foliage<br />

and take in a range of<br />

views, including Montara<br />

Mountain, the ocean,<br />

Sweeney Ridge, and the<br />

park's vast valleys.<br />

Bone Appétit<br />

When it comes to canines and<br />

cuisine, more and more people are<br />

interested in feeding their pets a<br />

healthy, fresh food diet, as opposed<br />

to dry, highly processed kibble.<br />

Fresh food is usually refrigerated or<br />

frozen and provides complete and<br />

balanced nutrition for pets. Owners<br />

with incredibly picky pups have<br />

found fresh food to be a “winner.”<br />

Customers are so thrilled when they<br />

finally find a nutritious food that<br />

their dogs love and are eager to eat.<br />

Because of the huge demand, more<br />

and more dog food manufacturers<br />

are jumping on the fresh food<br />

bandwagon.<br />

ASK THE<br />

EXPERT<br />

by CAITLIN EMMETT<br />

Q: WHAT’S THE<br />

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN<br />

NORTHERN AND SOUTHERN<br />

ITALIAN CUISINE?<br />

A: Northern and Southern Italian<br />

cuisine share many similarities,<br />

but their distinct regional<br />

characteristics largely stem from<br />

the ingredients unique to each area.<br />

Northern Italian cuisine is driven by<br />

the land, which is ideal terrain for<br />

raising cattle, sheep, goats, and boar.<br />

As a result, dishes containing meat,<br />

such as stews and steak, are mainstays<br />

in many of the meals. Salami and ham,<br />

including prosciutto, are also primary<br />

ingredients that are derived from<br />

livestock. The North is also known<br />

for its cheeses, such as pecorino,<br />

gorgonzola, and grana Padano;<br />

therefore, cheese-based sauces are<br />

more prevalent in this region.<br />

Southern Italian cuisine is driven by<br />

the sea. Due to its proximity to the<br />

water, fish—such as cod, calamari,<br />

and sea bass—are used in many<br />

dishes. The sunny climate also<br />

provides ideal conditions to grow<br />

fresh herbs and vegetables. As a<br />

result, olive oil is used as a staple<br />

instead of butter, and tomato-based<br />

sauces are found more frequently<br />

than cheese sauces.<br />

Q & A<br />

| introducing |<br />

WITH<br />

LOCAL<br />

COMPANIES<br />

photos by JYO BHAMIDIPATI<br />

YogaCreatives<br />

CHRISTINE KE<strong>EL</strong>EY<br />

9719 Village Center Drive, Suite 125, Granite Bay,<br />

916-899-9134, yogacreatives.com<br />

@yogacreatives_gb<br />

Services or products you offer: Innovative<br />

classes—including vinyasa, slow flow,<br />

yin, barre, sculpt, and family yoga—and<br />

workshops with caring, welcoming<br />

instructors in a gorgeous setting. We also<br />

sell yoga mats, bags, towels, and fitness<br />

accessories, such as barre socks with grip;<br />

and offer a comfy lobby to decompress in<br />

with snacks and tea.<br />

What you enjoy most about your<br />

profession: I enjoy the “aha” moments of<br />

helping people realize they’re stronger than<br />

they think. I love the sense of community<br />

and joy that cultivating a studio brings!<br />

Fun facts about your company: We have<br />

Japanese toilets with a remote control to<br />

customize your experience (it’s remarkably<br />

refreshing!) in addition to an orchid corner: if<br />

your orchid is out of bloom, we will care for it/<br />

feed it until it blooms again. We may also be<br />

the only yoga studio around equipped with<br />

Japanese katanas (I practice iaido, so our studio<br />

doubles as a dojo).<br />

You started your business, because: I’ve<br />

been doing yoga since before it was trendy<br />

and trained in many different styles, so<br />

I’m able to meet students where they are. I<br />

opened this business as a place where people<br />

don’t just “do yoga” but can learn more about<br />

yoga, breathing, and meditation, while going<br />

deeper into the finesse of their poses and<br />

trying on exciting variations safely. I also<br />

wanted a place that felt less like a fitness<br />

studio and more like a Zen temple with<br />

opportunities for connection and exploration.<br />

Last big purchase: Zebra brand flooring for<br />

the studio. It’s a classic Japanese tatami-style<br />

and makes our room sound and feel softer<br />

than hardwood; plus, it’s easier on people’s<br />

knees, is antimicrobial, and is the official<br />

recommended flooring of Yoga Journal.<br />

Everybody loves it!<br />

Favorite local restaurant: The Chef’s Table<br />

serves outstanding food in an unpretentious<br />

way. Their personal style of service is really<br />

comforting; they’re confident, cool, and<br />

always make me smile.<br />

When not working, you can be found: On<br />

stage singing at local music venues or at<br />

weddings in the wine country with my cover<br />

band Stereotype (stereotype916.com).<br />

You love living here, because: I’ve lived all<br />

over the world, but this is where I found<br />

home. It’s such a wonderful place—with so<br />

much to do and so much natural beauty.<br />

The Granite Bay community is especially<br />

friendly and filled with people who have<br />

lived other places but found “home” here,<br />

too. Community is my love language.<br />

YEARS WON!<br />

For more than 40 years, Steve Wallen Swim School<br />

has been teaching swim lessons and water safety for<br />

infants, kids, and adults of all skill levels. The school<br />

started modestly in Steve Wallen's backyard pool,<br />

and with your support, has grown into one of the most<br />

popular and respected swim schools in the area.<br />

On this subject, we are thrilled to announce that,<br />

with your help, we have been voted this year's #1<br />

Best Swim School for the 13th year in a row, as well<br />

as #2 Best Kids' Activity and Honorable Mention for<br />

is humbled and honored to receive these awards<br />

and wants to thank all of our loyal customers and<br />

supporters who voted for us.<br />

We take great pride in the quality of service we<br />

provide each and every day, and it is tremendously<br />

way. Our state-of-the-art indoor heated pool facility<br />

is open year-round for private and small group swim<br />

lessons, baby and me classes, and competitive swim<br />

lessons.<br />

We firmly believe that swimming is a life skill that<br />

should be practiced on a routine basis in order to retain<br />

developed skills and achieve maximum enjoyment in<br />

the water. Whatever your swim instruction needs,<br />

Steve Wallen Swim School is prepared to meet and<br />

exceed your expectations!<br />

"Family is business, and business is family!” We are thrilled<br />

that Blind Spot has been voted Best Window Coverings<br />

Store for the 16th consecutive year. This accolade is not just a<br />

recognition of our hard work but a testament to the fact that we<br />

consider ourselves more than a just a great business—we are a<br />

great family!<br />

My husband Thomas and I often joke that Blind Spot is like our<br />

‘firstborn’ child. It’s a central part of our lives, something we<br />

cherish, nurture, and help grow with unwavering dedication.<br />

Our sons, Jake (24) and Josh (20), have grown up with Blind Spot<br />

as a cornerstone of their lives. They have never known a day<br />

when this business wasn’t part of our family’s journey.<br />

As the owner and a mother, I am profoundly grateful for the<br />

opportunities that have come our way. Thomas and I work<br />

seamlessly together, taking pride in our achievements. Our<br />

sons embody incredible integrity and a deep understanding<br />

of community values. And we wouldn’t be who we are without<br />

the Blind Spot design and installation teams! They share this<br />

commitment, delivering work they can be proud of every day.<br />

And let’s not forget our clients, who enjoy exceptional<br />

Hunter Douglas window coverings and often share their<br />

experiences with their own families. This is the heart of our<br />

business: a community rooted in family values and dedicated<br />

craftsmanship. Thank you for being a part of our extended<br />

family and for helping us achieve this milestone!"<br />

supporting local business.<br />

We started as a small family feed store back in 1980<br />

and it wasn’t till 2015 when we decided to expand our<br />

ranch store and add in a clothing boutique. We often<br />

hear, “what, you have a boutique in a feed store?”. We<br />

sure do! It isn’t the typical boutique and you won’t<br />

be disappointed! We not only offer the latest in<br />

women’s fashion but we also have a large section of<br />

men’s daily wear, work wear and footwear as well as<br />

kids apparel. As Holiday season approaches, we have<br />

a great gift selection as well.<br />

Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts! We<br />

look forward to seeing all of your smiling faces and<br />

continuing to serve our community.<br />

important to you and what you’re willing to<br />

compromise on from the outset prevents<br />

you from making snap decisions you<br />

might regret down the road.<br />

With that said, when it comes to<br />

stretching your budget, knowing when<br />

you can pinch pennies and when you can’t<br />

is invaluable. That’s why we asked local<br />

professionals across various trades to share<br />

their expert advice on where to save and<br />

where to splurge.<br />

LANDSCAPING<br />

The Expert: Sheri Burke, Owner, Xscape<br />

Gardens, xscapegardens.com<br />

by N<strong>EL</strong>LY KISLYANKA<br />

SAVE: One-gallon plant pots.<br />

Why? If there’s a choice between buying<br />

three-gallon versus one-gallon size plants,<br />

buy the one-gallon options, as plants will<br />

reach the three-gallon size within one to<br />

two growing seasons.<br />

SPLURGE: Outdoor pots.<br />

Why? A pot should act as a focal point,<br />

whether it’s displayed solo or alongside a<br />

cluster of pots of the same color. Designing<br />

with a big pot (minimum two-feet wide and<br />

two-feet-tall) allows you to install at least<br />

five to seven plants for a stunning display.<br />

A cluster of pots (minimum 16-inches<br />

wide and 18-inches tall) allows the same<br />

opportunity but uses up more space.<br />

KITCHEN<br />

The Expert: Susan Parker, Kitchen &<br />

Bath Designer Specialist, Kitchen Mart,<br />

kitchenmart.com<br />

SAVE: If you don’t want to change the<br />

layout of your kitchen and the cabinets<br />

are in good condition, reface them<br />

instead of purchasing new.<br />

Why? You’ll save money and time, and<br />

many convenience items can be changed<br />

or added within the existing footprint<br />

for improved use of space (i.e., trash and<br />

recycle centers, soft-close drawers and<br />

doors, full extension drawers, docking<br />

stations, and turntables). You’ll have a new<br />

kitchen without the expensive price tag.<br />

SPLURGE: Functional design.<br />

Why? If you have a pinch point<br />

in your home—a place where<br />

there’s often lots of traffic—the<br />

space can feel closed in, even<br />

when there's only one person in<br />

it. Other times, there might be<br />

an area where everyone seems<br />

SPLURGE: Steam showers.<br />

Why? Steam showers are a great way to<br />

also wonderful for your skin and for<br />

SAVE: Area rugs.<br />

Why? For active families or those with<br />

pets, area rugs are a smart commodity<br />

to save on, as they receive ample use and<br />

it’s likely they’ll be spilled on.<br />

SPLURGE: Custom upholstery seating.<br />

Why? To ensure maximum comfort and<br />

quality that will last for many years to<br />

item that’s well worth the splurge.<br />

SAVE: Curtains.<br />

Why? There are a lot of affordable<br />

curtain options on the market today; you<br />

can get the look and feel you want, even<br />

at lower price points.<br />

SPLURGE: Architella Honeycomb<br />

Shades.<br />

Why? These are by far the most energyefficient<br />

shades and can reduce the<br />

solar heat gain into a room by as much<br />

as 90% in the summer and the loss of<br />

heat through windows by as much as<br />

80% in the winter. They also qualify for<br />

an energy efficiency tax credit of up to<br />

$1,200. These shades pay for themselves<br />

over time with the energy expense they’ll<br />

save you and the tax credit.<br />

Sette Pasta House<br />

by RYAN MARTINEZ | photos by JYO BHAMIDIPATI<br />

Pesto Casarecce<br />

Paul Jansen<br />

Restaurateur—and 28-year military<br />

veteran—Paul Jansen has escalated<br />

from four to seven. As the founder of Fourk<br />

Kitchen, where everything on the menu is<br />

delivered as a four-course meal, the chef<br />

and owner’s newest venture, Sette Pasta<br />

House, has followed the numerical suit. With<br />

a simple belief that complexity decreases<br />

consistency, Sette Pasta House serves seven,<br />

incredibly well-executed mains: five pasta<br />

dishes made from fresh, handmade pasta<br />

daily, and two rotating specials.<br />

When my family and I walked in the<br />

door and Dave Brubeck’s “Take Five” was<br />

playing, I knew I was going to dig the vibe.<br />

After being seated by our server, Casey, who<br />

was amazingly attentive, she explained that<br />

“sette” means seven in Italian. We were also<br />

delighted to discover it was happy hour.<br />

While enjoying a nice glass of wine and the<br />

meatball skillet (both part of their happy<br />

hour offerings), we perused the menu. It<br />

didn’t take long.<br />

I’ve always been a fan of simplicity and<br />

often find that having too many options is<br />

somewhat stressful. My wife agrees, and<br />

we quickly decided on our entrées: lasagna<br />

Bolognese and pesto casarecce.<br />

A quick personal anecdote: My mother<br />

loves to cook; I mean, LOVES it. When I<br />

was in college, I would often come home<br />

to fresh pasta hanging all over the kitchen.<br />

This was my first experience with truly<br />

fresh, homemade pasta. The taste hits<br />

different and is, indeed, delectable.<br />

My first bite of Sette’s lasagna transported<br />

salad specials, and half portions of pasta; menu<br />

features seven (sette) mains, plus appetizers;<br />

everything is house-made, from the pasta to the<br />

ricotta; catering and private events available;<br />

pasta and sauces can be purchased to go<br />

me right back to the fresh pasta I<br />

experienced as a young adult. The Bolognese<br />

sauce was impeccable and, despite appearing<br />

like a modest portion, I found it to be perfect<br />

with the appetizer and salad we ordered to<br />

share. My wife, who is typically not a pasta<br />

fan, also gave it an emphatic nod of approval.<br />

The pesto casarecce was cooked equally<br />

well; the short noodles with curled edges<br />

and a groove down the middle (casarecce)<br />

were delicious, and the pesto had just the<br />

right amount of “presence”—it was subtle<br />

but noticeable. A little pinch of salt really<br />

brought it to life.<br />

For dessert, we shared the tiramisu,<br />

which was precisely executed. The cream<br />

was rich and decadent, the ladyfingers<br />

perfectly soft, and the dish as beautiful as<br />

it was delicious. I was hoping for a decaf<br />

coffee to tie it all together, yet the decaf had<br />

run dry; not to fret, though: The espresso<br />

used in the dessert satisfied my craving<br />

with a nice kick of flavor.<br />

Overall, the atmosphere at Sette is<br />

simple but elegant with a staff that’s<br />

amiable and attentive. The<br />

dishes—all seven of<br />

them—get major points<br />

for their handmade<br />

detail and flavor.<br />

When craving a taste<br />

of Italy, put Sette Pasta<br />

House top of mind. I<br />

know I will.<br />

THE<br />

Hot<br />

LIST<br />

Scary-Good Soups<br />

by CAITLIN EMMETT<br />

I’m someone who dreams of the temperatures dropping,<br />

just so I can eat delicious, warming soup. With our region’s<br />

hot, lingering summers, however, the wait can feel like<br />

forever. But soup lovers, it’s time to rejoice! Fall is here,<br />

and it’s time to feast. In honor of soup season, I rounded<br />

up some local spots where you can devour a big bowl<br />

of deliciousness—without having to pull out your clunky<br />

Crock-Pot or (not so patiently) stare at a pot on the stove.<br />

And since it’s October, dare I say they’re scary, spooky<br />

good? Try one or try them all—you can’t go wrong here.<br />

Thai Paradise<br />

Mexquite<br />

Who says coconut flavors have<br />

to be left behind when summer<br />

ends? At Thai Paradise, you<br />

can order their creamy Tom Kha<br />

Koong soup year-round. It’s fully<br />

loaded with juicy prawns, fresh<br />

Thai herbs, and tons of veggies—<br />

broccoli, eggplant, baby corn,<br />

bell peppers, tomatoes, and<br />

zucchini—in a warming, aromatic<br />

broth comprised of coconut<br />

milk, lemongrass, lime juice, and<br />

other top-secret ingredients. Dig<br />

in at either of their locations and<br />

prepare to be impressed. 2770 East<br />

Bidwell Street, Suite 100, Folsom,<br />

Mexquite in Folsom describes their<br />

popular Tortilla Soup as warm and<br />

comforting—what more would you want<br />

in autumn? Tender shredded chicken,<br />

queso fresco, and grilled corn get<br />

creaminess from avocado and crunch<br />

from tortilla strips. The chicken-tomato<br />

broth is topped with some cooling<br />

sour cream and a refreshing sprinkle of<br />

scallions. All the flavors come together<br />

seamlessly to make for a satisfying,<br />

satiating dish that pairs perfectly<br />

with mild temps and spicy margs (we<br />

recommend Mexquite’s roasted jalapeño<br />

margarita!). 25095 Blue Ravine Road,<br />

North Fork Deli<br />

When you see Smoked Tri-Tip Chili on a<br />

menu, is there anything else you need to<br />

know? If you’d like the details, here they<br />

are—the tri-tip is seasoned then smoked<br />

to perfection. It’s added to a blend of<br />

spices, along with garlic, onions, peppers,<br />

jalapeños, serrano and bell peppers,<br />

and kidney, pinto, and white beans. A<br />

sprinkling of cheddar cheese and red<br />

onions bring both crunch and creaminess.<br />

All the soups at Auburn’s North Fork<br />

Deli are a labor of love and regularly<br />

rotate, so be sure to pop in on a Monday<br />

or Tuesday to ensure you’ll get your hands<br />

on a bowl of chili. If you’re really (really!)<br />

lucky, they just might have it available in a<br />

bread bowl. 886 Lincoln Way, Auburn, 530-<br />

Wally’s Cafe<br />

Amore Mio Italian Bistro<br />

Craving a “souper” good legume-based<br />

soup? Head to Placerville’s Amore Mio<br />

Italian Bistro for their Tuscan Soup (okay,<br />

the official name is “zuppa di fagioli alla<br />

Toscana,” but try saying that three times<br />

fast!). Each savory spoonful is filled with<br />

cannellini beans, which average 11 grams<br />

of protein per every quarter-cup; sausage,<br />

for another healthy hit of protein; along<br />

with a sprinkling of pecorino cheese. Fresh<br />

(never frozen) ingredients prepared with<br />

lots of love results in food that tastes good<br />

and makes you feel good, too. 451 Main<br />

Street, Suite 8, Placerville, 530-303-3148,<br />

Lentils are superstars of the legume family—<br />

just half a cup provides about 12 grams of<br />

protein, making them a filling choice for both<br />

veg-heads and meat lovers alike. Wally’s<br />

Cafe in Rocklin serves up mouthwatering<br />

Mediterranean and Lebanese dishes,<br />

including their much-loved Lentil Soup. It’s<br />

comprised of a homemade, flavor-filled<br />

vegetarian broth plus garlic, spinach, carrots,<br />

spices, rice (for even more heartiness), and,<br />

you guessed it, lentils. But the best part of<br />

this nutritious, delicious soup? They offer a<br />

complimentary bowl of it for those dining<br />

in. 2110 Sunset Boulevard, Suite 600, 916-580-<br />

The smooth, creamy Wild<br />

Mushroom Soup makes for the<br />

perfect beginning to a multicourse<br />

meal at Hawks. Cremini<br />

mushrooms primarily make<br />

up the base of this puréed<br />

treasure, but whatever is fresh<br />

and seasonal is often added<br />

(think hen of the woods or<br />

chanterelles). A sherry winebased<br />

reduction (aka, cherry<br />

gastrique) adorns the top,<br />

followed by fresh chives and<br />

crisped-up shallots. 5530 Douglas<br />

Boulevard, Granite Bay, 916-791-<br />

The next time you can’t decide<br />

between pasta and a bowl<br />

of soup, head to Visconti’s<br />

Ristorante. A Folsom mainstay<br />

since the early ’90s, their menu is<br />

full of must-try meals, including<br />

the incredibly tasty Tortellini<br />

Soup. Comprised of hearty<br />

ground beef-filled tortellini in a<br />

savory chicken-tomato based<br />

broth, the soup’s simplicity<br />

allows the pasta to shine.<br />

Whether enjoyed as a starter or<br />

lighter main, there’s one nonnegotiable:<br />

an order of garlic<br />

bread! 2700 East Bidwell Street,<br />

With eight ramens to choose<br />

from, Umi Sushi in Roseville is a<br />

noodle-lover’s paradise. Try their<br />

Shoyu Ramen, which consists<br />

of chewy ramen noodles in a<br />

soy sauce-infused broth, plus<br />

bamboo shoots, chashu (pork<br />

slices), ajitama (soft-boiled<br />

marinated egg), green onions,<br />

and spinach. It’s all topped off<br />

with dry seaweed and a pink<br />

swirled fish cake (naruto). If your<br />

heart desires even more kick in<br />

your bowl, a plethora of addons<br />

such as tofu, minced garlic,<br />

special spicy paste, and baby bok<br />

choy are available; or “make it a<br />

combo” by adding a California<br />

roll or gyoza. 107 South Harding<br />
