Quiet Valley Old Time Christmas
Quiet Valley Living Historical Farm will present its 26th annual Old Time Christmas event on December 3, 4 and December 10, 11 with continuous sessions every 15 minutes beginning at 3:00 p.m., with the last group going out at 7:00 p.m.
More than any other holiday, Christmas celebrations center on the traditions of our families and our heritage. Begin a new tradition with your family this year during an outing to Quiet Valley Living Historical Farm, where the Christmas customs of the past are brought to life. From the softly glowing lantern light to complimentary hot chocolate and cookies, Old Time Christmas is sure to become a favorite holiday pastime for many years to come. Gather around a bonfire while you wait for your visit to the 1800s to begin. Guides in period clothing will lead guests on their journey into the past beginning with this year’s Victorian skit where Sarah and her sisters are reminiscing about last year’s Christmas tree fiasco. Pick up some safety tips and enjoy some laughs while you are there. Before you leave take a peek at their Christmas Putz, a homemade nativity and village scene that was a custom the Moravians began and was soon enthusiastically adopted by the Pennsylvania Germans. Afterwards it’s on to the living Nativity located in the barnyard which includes the Quiet Valley farm animals and offers a glimpse at the foundation of this special celebration. Then off to a simple log cabin where we discover the unusual surprise a brother created for his sister as a gift. At the one room schoolhouse it is a jolly time as the school marm leads both the musicians and guests in singing their favorite seasonal carols. There is plenty of nervous excitement in the cellar kitchen as folks await a visit from the Belschnikel, a traditional Pennsylvania German character who made his rounds during the Christmas season. He is the one who really knows if you were naughty or nice. A final stop in the Engel Education Building for complimentary refreshments adds a final festive touch to the visit. As you leave be sure to stop in the Holiday Gift Shop which is stocked with heritage crafts handmade by Quiet Valley artisans. It is the place to find unique gifts at reasonable prices. Those looking for a truly meaningful way to start their Christmas season will discover it at this very special event. Old Time Christmas is held annually the first two full weekends of December. Admission is $10 for adults and $5 for children ages 3-12, with those under three admitted free. You will be outside part of the time so remember to dress warmly. No pets or smoking please. Group of 12 or more with reservations, receive a discounted price any of the four days, when going out between 2:30pm through 3:30pm. Perfect for scout troops, church groups and large families that want to go together. It takes about an hour and a half to see all of Old Time Christmas.

Food and Safety...
Safe Food Techniques Every Home
Cook Should Know
(BPT) - Good hosts want positive experiences around the dishes they prepare for the holidays — great conversation and good memories.
What’s a sure way to mar the feast? Not being consistent in following safe food handling techniques that every home cook should know. Each year, one in six people experiences food poisoning, affecting some 48 million people, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
“Sometimes, the causes of food poisoning are beyond our control, in spite of regulations and best practices by farmers and food companies. While ready-to-eat foods and restaurants are often highlighted in the fight against food poisoning, we often overlook that home cooks are important partners in reducing the risk of foodborne illness,” said Mike Robach, vice president of food safety at Cargill.
“The most common foodborne pathogens, like salmonella and campylobacter, can cause serious illness, particularly in young children, the elderly, pregnant women and other immune-compromised people,” said Shelley Feist, executive director of the Partnership for Food Safety Education. "Consistently practicing good hand hygiene and safe food handling at home is important to protect your family from these microorganisms and the serious illness they can cause.”
Each year, foodborne illnesses lead to 128,000 hospitalizations and 3,000 deaths, according to the CDC, as they can lead to serious conditions such as sepsis and kidney failure.
Like any skilled chef, you are best prepared to create a memorable feast when you keep these safe food handling practices top-of-mind. They are just as necessary to a great meal as sharp knives, high-quality cookware, fresh ingredients and the right appliances.
Clean hands and surfaces often
Before you begin cooking, start by making sure your work area and tools are clean. Wash all preparation surfaces, including cutting boards, with hot, soapy water. If any tools or containers you will need are dirty, either run the dishwasher cycle or hand-wash the items in a sink of hot, soapy water. Finally, wash your hands with warm water and soap for 20 seconds before and after handling food.
Rinse fresh fruits and vegetables
Depending on what you are using, some foods will require rinsing. Rinse fresh fruits and vegetables under running water just before eating or using. Firm-skinned produce like cucumbers and apples should be rubbed under running tap water by hand or with a clean brush. You should also rinse any produce that will be peeled, because microorganisms on the surface can be easily transferred to the flesh with a peeler or knife blade. Blot fresh fruits and vegetables dry with paper towels.
There is no need to rinse raw meat or poultry, at least, not in the name of food safety. All that will accomplish is potentially spreading bacteria in your sink and beyond. Raw meat and poultry must be cooked to a safe internal temperature.
Safely handle meat and poultry
The best home cooks know it’s important to safely handle raw meat and poultry. To start with, do not thaw frozen meat and poultry at room temperature — to do so gives harmful bacteria an ideal environment to multiply and spread.
There are three safe ways to defrost food: in the refrigerator, submerged in cold water, and in the microwave. Food thawed in cold water or in the microwave should be cooked immediately.
Keep raw meat and poultry separate from other foods, and use one cutting board for fresh produce and a separate one for raw meat and poultry.
And it is worth a reminder — never place cooked food on a plate that previously held raw or undercooked meat or poultry.
Cook to safe temperatures
Here is a compelling reason to cook food to a safe temperature: Even a professional chef cannot say with precision if a food item is cooked to a safe internal temperature. Food is safely cooked when it reaches a high enough internal temperature to kill the harmful bacteria that cause illness. Get a food thermometer and use it consistently. For a list of safe internal temperatures, visit the Partnership for Food Safety Education website at fightbac.org.
Safe leftovers
Proper storing of leftovers in a refrigerator at 40 degrees Fahrenheit or below helps reduce the risk of food poisoning. Keep leftovers in shallow containers so they cool off more quickly. When reheating leftovers, make sure they reach a safe temperature of 165 F degrees as measured with a food thermometer. Consume or freeze refrigerated leftovers within three to four days.

5 Fall Fashion Finds that Blend
Comfort and Style
(BPT) - As Mother Nature exchanges her green attire for endless hues of yellow, orange and red, you too may be thinking it’s time to spruce up your wardrobe. This fall, the leading trends are blending fashion with comfort to create eye-catching styles that move with ease through all your autumn adventures.
As the leaves turn and the chill sets in, make sure your closet is stocked with the top five fashion finds of the season.
Thin and thick, scarves for everyone
Store your statement necklaces for next season because fall 2016 is prime for scarves of all shapes and sizes. Chunky knits are a classic among both men and women, with infinity scarves bridging the gap between dainty and daring. To add further dimension, skinny scarves are a new addition for this season. Thin scarves of silky material are being layered, wrapped and knotted to create a one-of-a-kind look guaranteed to catch a glance. Long-hair scarves or silk belts are ideal for experimenting with this fresh trend.
A comfortable twist on the skinny jean
When fall arrives women from coast to coast don skinny jeans with boots and booties. Until now, this unforgettable look came at the price of comfort and mobility. Enter the Lee Dream Jean. Designed to look like a skinny jean on the outside while feeling like a yoga pant inside, you can wear these jeans for any fall adventure — whether stretching for the highest apple or lounging with a pumpkin spice latte. The patent-pending Dream Jeanwraps you in softness with a t-shirt-like lining, and the stretchy, skinny fit ensures you'll never want to take them off.
Slim-fit jeans for men
For fall 2016, men's jeans are seeing a slimmer cut than in previous seasons, and more men are looking for styles with stretch to achieve this look. The Lee Slim Fit embraces both elements to produce a pant that looks and feels great, whether you're tailgating with friends or picking pumpkins with the family. The slim, tailored style fits closer to the body for a great fall look, while the Active Comfort Denim technology allows the denim to flex and move with ease to keep up with your every move.
Fabulous fall footwear
Beyond boots, fall footwear is getting a sensible yet stylish update for fall 2016. One of the leading shoe trends of the season is the classic mule. Making its comeback, the mule blends the best of a loafer with the ease of a clog. Slip these on with your favorite jeans for a chic look for the office or a weekend get-together. Mules offer the ideal way to polish a casual look and create a beautiful blend of high and low fashion.
Pops of color
As Mother Nature delights the eye with radiant hues across the landscape, you may feel inspired to add pops of color to your fall wardrobe. Just because it's autumn, however, doesn't mean you're limited to just crimson and sienna. Fall is a season alive with life, so integrate your favorite bold colors in any way you can. If you opt for colorful pants to bring life to your outfit, try one of the eleven colors available in Lee’s Essential Chinos, including perfect fall shades like Moss Green and Blush. Pink, in fact, is trending for fall, so rock those pants and pull that raspberry fedora out of storage. It's no longer relegated for spring alone.
Fall 2016 is unlike any other when it comes to fashion. By blending comfort and style, you're sure to find a favorite look to keep up with your every move this season.

Brunch With The Author
The Friends of the Bangor Public Library will host their Fall “Brunch with the Author” on Saturday, November 12th @ 10:00 AM. Local author, Anna Maria Caldera will be the featured author. She will be presenting. Sherwood Anderson on Life and Writing. This is Anna’s tenth book and one that pays homage to her favorite author, Sherwood Anderson (1876-1941). Anderson was a chronicler of the common person during the post- Civil War industrialization of America. A recurring theme was the effect of factories on farmers whose connection to the land had been severed. While popular magazines, novels, and screen plays of the day upheld the wealthy as the subjects of greatest interest, Anderson’s literary output focused on the lowly. Ms. Caldara will familiarize the audience with Anderson’s work and his advice to writers.
The event is free, but donations will be accepted. Registration for attendance is required by calling the library at 610-588-4136. The library is located at 39 South Main Street, Bangor, PA. For additional information contact: Karen Brewer @ 610-588-8615.
