Gardening
Bring World Flavor into Your Garden
(BPT) - If a big part of your weekend is dedicated to experimenting with recipes and combining ingredients to create new flavors, you just might be a foodie. If you have a checklist of restaurants you've been meaning to try but haven't had a chance to because you've been busy eating elsewhere, chances are more than one friend has called you a foodie. Like many people who seek out delicious meals, you probably know what every chef knows: the secret to great cooking is always fresh ingredients.
The best way to ensure fresh ingredients is to grow them yourself. Many who live in urban areas, in condos or in apartments feel that because they don't have a yard, they can't grow their own herbs or vegetables. But brands like Burpee are encouraging urban gardening, and have opened a world of herb and veggie plants for those who only have a deck or a windowsill.
To give you an idea of what kind of culinary adventures you can have, here are five tips for vegetable gardening in a small space.
Window box gardening
You don't need a big backyard, in many cases all you need is a box and a window. Window box gardening is not only an efficient way to maximize space, but a great way to add an edible aspect to your décor. Try small-space vegetable plants like peppermint stick celery or masterpiece pea for their unique taste and texture.
Become a homegrown mixologist
Use the fresh herbs you grow to make exciting cocktails for your guests. Herbs add depth and personality to cocktails, and even provide some much-needed vitamins, so you'll be drinking to your health. A few ideas are mint for the perfect summertime Mojitos, rosemary infused greyhounds, or a sprig of parsley and thyme in your Bloody Mary.
Color your world
There's an old saying that you should eat the rainbow. Well, you should also grow the rainbow! Tomatoes, peppers and eggplants are just some of the veggies that can make up a colorful home display. Best of all, these healthy and delicious veggies, like Burpee's sweet savour pepper plant, can be grown on your doorstep, balcony or patio.
You're never too old to play with your food
Growing your own vegetables means you have ample opportunity to experiment and "play" with your food. This can be as easy as adding some fresh herbs like mint or rosemary to ice cream or experimenting with pickling using those extra cucumbers you've grown.
Whip up a batch of cherry pepper bites
Here's an example of a killer recipe that brings out the best in your homegrown ingredients.
Prep time 0:15
Serves: 8
24 mini sweet peppers like 'Cherry Stuffer' from Burpee plants
1 8-oz package cream cheese
¼ cup fresh oregano, basil or tarragon chopped
1 Tablespoon of lemon juice
1 Tablespoon of milk
Fresh herb leaves for garnish (optional)
*Cut tops off mini peppers and remove seeds.
*In a small bowl, blend cream cheese, herbs, lemon juice and milk until smooth.
*Pipe or spoon cream cheese mixture into the peppers.
*Garnish with additional herbs if desired and serve.
These five tips are only the beginning of what you can do with a home garden. Drawing on its 136-year history, Burpee plants offer an online Garden Coach to help you be a better gardener through inspiration and information. It's never been easier to enjoy fresh ingredients from your garden, no matter how small a space you have to work in.

Green Living
Clover an Eco Smart Alternative
(BPT) - Who doesn’t love the look and feel of a lush, green lawn? Having your home surrounded by gorgeous green turf has forever been part of the American dream. But once reality sets in, maintaining and irrigating traditional turf lawns can cost you time and money. If you’re an eco-conscious homeowner, or just want gorgeous green surrounding your home, you may find it difficult to justify the expense, water and chemicals involved in modern lawn maintenance.
Many smart, eco-conscious homeowners are finding a sure-fire solution in a lush, fast-growing and hardy ground cover that’s been unfairly relegated to weed status for decades. Clover is making a comeback.
“If you’re older than 30, you may remember your father trying to rid his manicured lawn of clover that just kept on growing,” says Troy Hake, owner of seed company, Outsidepride.com. “Today, clover has turned over a new leaf. It offers many advantages over traditional turf, which is why golf courses and sports fields in Europe have been using it for years instead of grass. Clover stays green longer, grows fast, thrives in shade or sun, and even acts as a natural fertilizer wherever it grows. Miniclover is especially attractive, and can help you get that thick, lush, lovely green lawn you’ve been looking for.”
As more Americans become aware of the need to use more natural and sustainable lawn care practices, and warmer weather brings more water shortages throughout the country, clover is gaining ground in residential lawns across the U.S.
The splendor of sustainable clover
Clover comes in a wide variety of sizes, but rich green leaves are characteristic of all clovers. Miniclover, considered the top turf alternative for lawns, is a perennial that grows to be about 4 inches tall — about half the size of the White Dutch Clover common in lawns you’ve seen for years. Miniclover is a productive producer and the more you mow it, the smaller the leaf sizes will grow, providing a thick, carpet-like appearance that blends well with turf.
Miniclover’s growth begins earlier than grass and continues to stay green and thrive even when drought conditions and cold temps turn turf brown.
Hardy and versatile
Miniclover grows well in sun or partial shade and its deep roots, (deeper than traditional turf) enable it to reach the natural water table amd give it a high tolerance for drought conditions. Clover stays green long after grass has turned brown — a significant advantage as water shortages continue to occur across the country. In fact, 80 percent of state water managers surveyed by the Government Accountability Office in 2014 said they expect some portion of their states to experience water shortages within the next 10 years.
Miniclover can also be used for erosion control; it tolerates wear, so it’s a smart choice for high-traffic areas like golf courses — or your backyard where children and pets run and play all summer!
Easy on the environment
Clover is environmentally friendly in multiple ways. In addition to needing less water to thrive, it can grow in poor soil without the need for chemical fertilizers. In fact, because clover infuses the soil with nitrogen, it acts as a natural fertilizer and can actually make surrounding grass healthier when you mix it in a turf lawn. Clover can be a natural way to fix soil that’s nitrogen deficient and reduce the need for chemical fertilizers.
Dollar-smart
A full or partial clover lawn will not only save money on your water bill, you’ll spend less on lawn care, too. Miniclover is fast and easy to grow, requires much less mowing and fertilization, and less investment in maintenance. Because it’s a semi-aggressive species, after an initial seeding, Miniclover will quickly fill in gaps in lawns, preventing weeds from filling in bare spots.
“Miniclover is very cost-effective, within the first year after sowing, you could recoup your investment with lower fertilizer, weed control, mowing and irrigation costs,” Hake says.

Puppy Shows Off His New Braces
SPRING LAKE , Mich., (UPI) -- A Michigan veterinarian has earned the title of "doggie dentist" for his practice of fitting dogs with braces and performing root canals.Harborfront Hospital for Animals shared photos of a golden retriever puppy "smiling" after being fitted with a set of braces.
Dr. Jim Moore often receives questions regarding his dental work for dogs and his interesting nickname.
"When people hear that Dr. Moore is a 'doggie dentist,' they immediately say things like: 'What? Does he put braces on dogs, too?'," the Facebook post read. "The answer is...yes. Yes, he does."
While it may be unusual to see a dog adorned with braces, the animal hospital stressed the importance of animals' dental health in the Facebook post.
"Orthodontia in pets is normally not for aesthetic purposes, but because of health concerns," they wrote.
The dog shown in the photograph was named Wesley and needed braces to realign his teeth so he would be able to close his mouth properly.
The Hospital later reported that Wesley was recovering well as his photo quickly became popular on the internet, gaining almost 300,000 shares on Facebook.
"He is happily enjoying some of the benefits of his celebrity (although he already had ample hugs, kisses and belly rubs)," they wrote. "Most importantly, he is eating well, playing, and feeling wonderful."

Amateur radio is a fun hobby where you can talk with people across town or all over the world, even with astronauts in space, without telephone wires, cell phones or the Internet. It provides helpful communication service in emergencies, public service and community events. Amateur radio operators come from all walks of life, from all ages, men and women, students and retirees, factory workers and doctors, and all in between. We all have one thing in common: ham radio. We can tinker and experiment and build things. We can help with communications at parades and other community events. We send health and welfare messages in times of disaster; sometimes we are the only communications available. We can compete in radio contests, and we can have casual conversations with other hams worldwide. To do all this you need a license and a radio. Delaware-Lehigh Amateur Radio Club will offer a series of 9 Tuesday evening free classes, 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., beginning March 8 at the Northampton County Gracedale Complex, Nazareth, We will help anyone interested in earning their entry-level FCC amateur radio license. We also will offer a separate series of classes to upgrade to the General License on the same dates. For answers to questions, more information, or to register for the free classes, please phone 610.432.8286 or email [email protected]. The Delaware-Lehigh Amateur Radio Club, Inc. is a 501 (C)(3) non-profit charitable organization. March 10Pulitzer Prize-Winning Poet to Read at NCC Tracy K. Smith

Ask The Doc........ Technology can be wonderful!
by Dr. Gary Williams, DMD
garywilliamsdmd.com I know sometimes new technologies can be frustrating and leave us questioning whether “progress” is worth the hassle. But, that is not the case with intra-oral digital scanners. We have been using our digital scanner at Family Dental Care now for 3 months, and the results are amazing. Sure, it’s pretty “cool” technology, and it has been totally comfortable for patients. No gagging going on! And the turn around time is much shorter. All of these are pluses, but here is the real benefit… the accuracy and fit of what we are making. I can comfortably predict a great fit of your new crowns, splints, Invisalign aligners, retainers, and anything else we scan for. That makes it worthwhile. It’s one thing to restore your mouth to health, but I want, you want, and you deserve to rest assured that what is placed in your mouth is the best possible fit known to dentistry. Digital scanning is here to stay at Family Dental Care. Feel free to ask us about our scanner. Garywilliamsdmd.com.
