You may have noticed things have slowed down around here. Like, "slowed down" is an overstatement. More like ground to a halt. A few months back, I decided to start a new blog called Kitchen Treaty. The theme is one I've touched on occasionally here on The Hazel Bloom: vegetarians and meat-eaters CAN live together. [...]

Alien O'Lanterns Have Landed!

If you are a regular reader of Concrete Thoughts, you know that I think networking is extremely valuable for participants in our commercial real estate market.
One of the main benefits of networking is getting to meet people face-to-face and developing relationships that are lasting and lead to business opportunities. One of the best trade organizations through which to network is the Real Estate Board of New York.
This week, REBNY is holding its 117th annual banquet, so I thought it appropriate to recognize the tremendous work that the board does on behalf of our industry. Not only does REBNY provide tremendous networking opportunities, it's also a leading advocate for our industry. Read More
In July, the Real Estate Board of New York announced that Rob Speyer, 43, president and co-CEO of Tishman Speyer, would succeed Mary Ann Tighe to become its youngest chairman ever. Stepping in this month, he is the third successive generation of his family to hold the post—also a first in the organization's 117-year history. Though he might have a reputation as being media-shy, Mr. Speyer's success in real estate is no secret—his company has completed $6 billion in new transactions and raised $4.5 billion of new equity since 2010. Mr. Speyer sat down with The Commercial Observer last week for a rare interview to discuss his new appointment, his agenda for REBNY in 2013, following in his father and grandfather's footsteps, and the best way forward for New York City as global competition ramps up.
The new year ushered in a shaken-up hierarchy to the Real Estate Board of New York.
Tishman Speyer President Rob Speyer has replaced Mary Ann Tighe as chairman. Mr. Speyer, 43, is the youngest chairman in the board's 117-year history, and will inherit the position from the first female to ever hold it. Despite his youth, Mr. Speyer has history on his side: he's the third generation of his family to be named REBNY chair.
Mr. Speyer's combination of youth and lineage is well-suited to an organization that in 2012 faced fresh, modern challenges whose resolutions required the full weight of the influence REBNY has accrued over the past century. Hurricane Sandy caused unprecedented damage to coastal areas of the city and its transportation system, not to mention the related electric grid failure. And while major storms are nothing new, they seem on course to increase in size and frequency. Read More

The Commercial Observer caught up with Mr. Van Buren four months after his one-year anniversary to discuss the goals he has accomplished, what lies ahead for CBRE and his predictions on Manhattan's most formidable market, Midtown.

Featuring an all-star line up of the city's most formidable real estate professionals, this year's annual Masters of Real Estate fetched a record 450 RSVPs, The Commercial Observer has learned.

Larry Silverstein of Silverstein Properties, Michael Fascitelli of Vornado, William Rudin of Rudin Management, Jeff Blau of Related Companies and Glenn Rufrano of Cushman & Wakefield are all scheduled to appear.

Speeches were casually ignored, drinks were spilled and bonds were formed at last Thursday's 116th annual Real Estate Board of New York Gala, which this year drew an estimated 2,000 brokers, owners, advertising buyers and real estate reporters to the New York Hilton for an evening of conviviality, honorifics and hushed deal making. Among the fray was Commercial Observer staff writer Daniel Geiger, who during the course of the evening saw his stenopad tossed by an irate real estate broker and who unabashedly accosted Studley's Woody Heller in the hotel's bathroom, all for the sake of the story.

Lloyd Culbreath and Valarie Pettiford to Hold NYC Fosse Workshop in February
Veteran Bob Fosse dancers Lloyd Culbreath and Valarie Pettiford will be teaching a Fosse Workshop February 4,5,6,& 7th in New York City at Manhattan Movement and Arts Center. The workshop will be comprised of 45 invited professional dancers. The dancers will be taught several Fosse numbers that best comprise the style and technique of the legendary Broadway director and choreographer.
Nicole Fosse, Director and Artistic Adviser for the Fosse Verdon Estate hopes to accomplish several objectives over the course of the workshop, "I want this current generation of working dancers to get the best possible people teaching them my father's material. There are so many false impressions out there of what my father's style and technique is.....by using Fosse Verdon Estate sanctioned teachers, I feel this current generation of dancers will have a much cleaner understanding of what it takes to perform Fosse material".

Plans underway to put Cheney-Bennet construction plan on ballot
By Christian Mysliwiec - Staff Writer
Manchester - posted Thu., Jul. 11, 2013
A critical component in the plan to totally revise the Manchester public school district received the blessing from the Board of Directors at a regular meeting held Tuesday, July 9. Directors approved of the possible renovations and additions at Bennet Academy, a sixth-grade public school located on the south side of Main Street, and to a historic brick structure, known as the Cheney Building, adjacent to Bennet on School Street. The renovations would rehabilitate the Cheney building entirely, take down a boiler building, add an addition to the Cheney building, and adjoin Bennet and Cheney with a walkway spanning across School Street.
The architectural firm Tai Soo Kim Partners, which has drafted schematics and renderings of the possible final product, has estimated that the total cost of the renovations would cost slightly north of $17 million, though the town could receive a $10 million reimbursement. The renovations would enable the new Bennet-Cheney campus to house a fifth- and sixth-grade academy, as opposed to Bennet's current sixth-grade-only use.
This is one part of recommendations made by SMARTR, School Modernization and Reinvestment Team Revisited, a committee composed of BOD members, Board of Education members and academic staff that was tasked in early 2012 with developing a long-term strategy to investigating and revising Manchester public schools. SMARTR determined that the town's current school configuration, the neighborhood school model, is not sustainable.
The neighborhood school model envisions an elementary school in each residential neighborhood. Supporters of the model believe that the school acts as an anchoring hub to each community, and reduces the need for bus transportation as the school is within walking distance of students' homes.
Manchester has nine public elementary schools.
SMARTR's conclusions doubt the viability of this model in the long-term, citing population shifts unevenly distributed in town. For example, the development of new housing in the north section of town has caused Robertson Elementary to push the envelope in terms of student capacity, while attendance in other sections remain static.
The rapid deterioration of many of these nine schools, and the town and BOE's recent actions to finance only the bare minimum of repairs, is another factor to be considered.
As an alternative to the neighborhood school model, SMARTR proposes both kindergarten to fourth-grade models and a fifth/sixth model, which received the endorsement of both the BOD and BOE at past meetings. The combination of Bennet and Cheney into a single fifth/sixth facility is the lynchpin to this plan.
The renovation project will have to be approved by voters, and SMARTR has raced against the clock to include it as a referendum question for next November. Speaking to the board at the July 9 meeting, General Manager Scott Shanley explained that in order for the committee to meet this goal, the board will have to hold a public hearing on the matter at its August meeting, so that directors could take action in August or no later than the first meeting in September.
"I don't think we have a choice," said Mayor Leo Diana. "I don't think we can sustain nine elementary schools... I think this is a very good plan."
"Not only does the plan restore a historic building in our community, but it presents the opportunity for students in Manchester – who are just as talented as students in other towns – to have a state-of-the-art facility and be able to compete in the future," said Director Cheri Pelletier, who is also on the SMARTR committee.
Director John Topping, also a SMARTR member, said that the K-four and fifth/sixth plan may close some schools in order to create bigger, more efficient schools for students. "This is what's best for the community. The facts are, we can't afford the schools we have, as evidenced by the closing of Nathan Hale for lack of maintenance," he said. "We need to take the bull by the horns and get this through."
Going forward, Shanley will prepare a presentation on the project for the BOD August meeting, and a public hearing will be held. Should the BOD approve to include the project on ballots and if voters approve it at the November referendum, the fifth/sixth academy campus is expected to be complete for 2016-2017.

About Aesop Rock
Building on the rapping style of eccentrics Kool Keith and Del tha Funkee Homosapien, Def Jux headliner Aesop Rock became one of the hottest MCs in the post-millennial underground. After a pair of self-released LPs (Appleseed, Music for Earthworms), he recorded Float for Mush in 2000. The former Ian Bavitz then issued a pair of singles -- "Coma" and "Boom Box" -- for another underground rap label paragon, Definitive Jux. His second full-length, 2001's Labor Days, earned positive reviews and featured production from El-P and Blockhead. The Daylight EP kept his name in the papers, and his Def Jux follow-up, Bazooka Tooth, was released in September 2003. A seven-track EP, Fast Cars, Danger, Fire and Knives, followed in early 2005. In early 2007 Aesop Rock composed a 45-minute piece for Nike's Original Run series, a continuous track meant to be listened to while jogging (other artists included LCD Soundsystem and the Crystal Method), and by September his much-anticipated full-length, None Shall Pass, which included guest appearances from El-P and John Darnielle (from the Mountain Goats), came out.

Q. What's your story?
I started at Sandbox right out of college. At the time, there was only one other full-time employee, but the team and project portfolio grew quickly.
I left Sandbox in 2007 to work in West Africa and to attend graduate school. I'm thrilled to be back, and I'm excited by all the new developments here at Sandbox.
Q. What inspires you?
Watching projects evolve. A simple idea can become complicated so quickly, and I think it's fascinating to see how projects can change and adapt to new obstacles.
Q. Why Sandbox?
I love that Sandbox encourages you to be creative and take risks.
Q. Where can we find you outside of work?
Right now, you could probably find me at home on the couch. I just started the third season of The Wire, and I probably won't leave the house until it's finished.

Fans will see their favourite skating couples competing live for the judges' votes and the audience can use their mobile phones to text vote for their favourite celebrity to win.

All of the celebrities will be trained and choreographed by Torvill & Dean. Jayne and Chris who will also perform routines choreographed exclusively for the live tour, including a final performance of their legendary Bolero routine.
On announcing her place on the tour, Britain's greatest ever female gymnast Beth Tweddle said; "I'm excited to be joining the tour, having had such a wonderful experience on the TV show. I absolutely love skating and want to continue for as long as I can. Having competed as a gymnast for over 12 years, learning to skate has been a challenge, but one that I've loved and I can't wait to perform some of my favourite routines in front of the live audiences across the country!"
Broadway and West End theatre star Bonnie Langford commented; "Having been in the first series of Dancing on Ice, nine years ago and the final series, I'm thrilled to be going back on tour with Torvill & Dean. I had a ball last time round, so I'm delighted to be able to relive the magic of the TV show in front of arena audiences across the country."
Actress Suzanne Shaw said; "Winning Dancing on Ice in 2008 was such an amazing moment and I really enjoyed the tour afterwards. Being part of the final tour, with the brilliant Matt Evers, will be the perfect way to celebrate what has been one of the best experiences of my life - I can't wait to return!"
Multimillion selling singer and now one part of the ITV2 Big Reunion super group 5th Story, Gareth Gates said: "I've loved this series, so I'm glad I don't have to hang up my skates just yet - can't wait to get on the tour and skate all around the country! We're going to have a lot of fun."

A fistful of mobile companies have come and gone during 2012. The next generation of startups is ready to hit the mobile industry with a host of new services of which most will, at best, either slither into mediocrity or just plain fail due to a lack of funding and media agency support. Breaking new ground is not easy; breaking new media ground that translates into profit is even more difficult.

'Communication strategists' - the new term used to describe communicators in an era that sees a more strategic role for practitioners. The advent of King Report III has seen a requirement for stakeholder relations at board level, where the traditional term 'public relations' and the old school 'PRO' has lost its relevance to the new role of stakeholder relations. This was a key trend covered during a special morning session hosted by the Public Relations Consultancy Chapter (PRCC) at the 2010 PRISA National Conference held this week in Johannesburg.

Going Concern
|12 Months Ended
Aug. 31, 2012
|Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
|Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses from operations over the past several years and anticipates additional losses in fiscal 2012 and prior to achieving breakeven.
As of the date of this report, we will need approximately $200,000 to fund operations for the next twelve (12) months, without regard to repaying any outstanding accounts payable, convertible or non-convertible notes payable as well as funding the marketing for our joint venture with IUTM as described in Notes 5 and 9. This funding will allow us to maintain basic operations and to keep our public filings current. Our Company has never been profitable and we have had to rely on debt and equity financings to fund operations. Significant delays in development could affect the ability to obtain future debt and equity funding. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. After auditing our financial statements, our independent auditor issued a going concern opinion and our ability to continue is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital. Currently there is a substantial doubt in the Companys ability to continue as a going concern.
- Definition
Disclosure of accounting policy for reporting when there is a substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time (generally a year from the balance sheet date). Disclose: (a) pertinent conditions and events giving rise to the assessment of substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time, (b) the possible effects of such conditions and events, (c) management's evaluation of the significance of those conditions and events and any mitigating factors, (d) possible discontinuance of operations, (e) management's plans (including relevant prospective financial information), and (f) information about the recoverability or classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts or classification of liabilities. If management's plans alleviate the substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosure of the principal conditions and events that initially raised the substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern would be expected to be considered. Disclose whether operations for the current or prior years generated sufficient cash to cover current obligations, whether waivers were obtained from creditors relating to the company's default under the provisions of debt agreements and possible effects of such conditions and events, such as: whether there is a possible need to obtain additional financing (debt or equity) or to liquidate certain holdings to offset future cash flow deficiencies. Disclose appropriate parent company information when parent is dependent upon remittances from subsidiaries to satisfy its obligations.

Canada's Insurance and Risk Magazine
CORRECTION: This article first appeared on Apr. 20 with incorrect information. The version below represents the amended version, based on a follow-up interview with the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI).
Canadian Underwriter apologizes for the errors contained in its initial report of Judith Roberge's presentation at the Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC)'s 16th Annual Financial Affairs Symposium on Apr. 19.
Canada's solvency regulator, the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI), is considering incorporating the risk management benefits of diversification into its capital testing of insurers.
OSFI is currently reviewing its Minimum Capital Test (MCT), which is a measure of capital adequacy. The office is working on a revised capital framework, which will be circulated for public consultation in December 2012, with the new rules scheduled to take effect Jan. 1, 2014.
Currently, the MCT is based on minimum capital levels, capturing risk categories such as insurance risk, credit risk, market risk and operational risk.
OSFI is amending its risk margin factors and shock, seeking a target level of capital rather than a minimum capital level. Since this reform will increase confidence that the capital levels are adequate, OSFI is now willing to consider diversification among risk categories and within the insurance risk category.
For example, an insurer would meet a target level of capital based on an analysis of all risk categories — insurance risk, credit risk, market risk operational risk — and then OSFI would consider non-correlated risks across risk categories or within the insurance risk category.
"Basically we are saying that OSFI recognizes that it is unlikely that all these risks will happen at the same time," says Judith Roberge, director of P&C insurance capital for OSFI. She cited the example of an increased number of car accidents not being correlated to an interest rate increase.
"OSFI recognizes that where there is no correlation or a minimal amount of correlation between risks, OSFI is prepared to consider allowing a capital credit."

twogether: new brand, new vision, new website

We are twogether: an independent creative agency. Strategically-driven. Media-neutral. Technology-minded. People-inspired. We recently rebranded ourselves with a new name, new logo, new home and a new website. Our aim was to tell our brand's story with a bold, clean, clear (and sometimes quirky) look and feel. We also wanted to convey our new vision, which is all about building relationships: between us and our clients; between our clients and their customers. "twogether" neatly encapsulates this. Besides, a big blue rhino and tiny pink bird look kinda cool, right?

Benched Science
Increasingly, judges decide what science—if any—a jury hears
In television courtroom dramas, prosecutors and defendants' attorneys parade expert witnesses who dazzle juries with insightful forensic analyses, new theories of mental incapacity, data suggesting dangerous flaws in technology, and assessments as to whether an individual's sickness traces to toxic chemicals. In real life, however, many such scientific experts—and the data that their opinions draw upon—never make it to a jury.

When to Go to Arizona
When to Go to Arizona
High season at the resorts of Phoenix and Tucson is winter, when the snowbirds fly south. Expect the best temperatures—and the highest prices—from November through March, when nearly every weekend is filled with outdoor festivals. Spring wildflowers are best from March until May. If you're on a budget, the posh desert resorts drop their prices—sometimes by more than half—from June through September. The South Rim of the Grand Canyon and Sedona are busy year-round, but least busy during the winter months.

Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call N.O (US - DVD R1)
First Look reveals artwork for a April 6th release of this Werner Herzog movie
News by Tom Woodward

Really excited to see this, came and went pretty fast in theatres here...pretty standard looking artwork.
I want to see this movie. Too bad it has a limited movie release in the US.
artwork sucks
UK cinema release date 7th of May.
UK cinema release date 7th of May.
This cover art is strangely similar to the one for 'Wolf' (The Mike Nichols film).
I don't think he'll get nominated for an Oscar, but this is one of Nicolas Cage's finest performances in years. The movie worked quite well, definitely worth a rental on Cage's performance alone.
I actually like Nicolas Cage. Will Netflix it.
If my information is correct, it went (or is going) straight to video in the UK.
I don't think it's had a release here yet.
This was a fantastic movie. I really hope it gets a blu release. Does anyone know the studio in charge of this home video release?
I'm pretty sure that's the same cover as at least three other Cage movies.
Cage was awesome in this. One of his best performances.

AUGUSTA — A Utah couple has been indicted on charges of aggravated forgery and cultivation of marijuana, which was discovered in August after the execution of a search warrant at their Durham residence.
Frank Terhaar and Michelle Hank, formerly of Salt Lake City, were living in a travel trailer in Durham at the time of their arrest, according to a press release issued by the Maine Bureau of Motor Vehicles on Wednesday.
"An in-depth investigation was conducted by Bureau of Motor Vehicles Detective Christine Buchanan and Senior Detective Everett Kaherl over a period of four weeks, which led to the issuance of the search warrant," according to the BMV.
The BMV said Terhaar and Hank "promulgated a scheme involving obtaining birth certificates from other states in the name of deceased individuals, using information gathered from genealogical websites, and then applying for Maine identification credentials with the Maine Bureau of Motor Vehicles."
Detectives obtained arrest warrants from the Sagadahoc County District Court in Bath, and were assisted by BMV detectives John Gould and Gordon Carroll and Maine State Trooper Michael Chavez, the release stated.
"At the scene they searched a vehicle and the travel trailer. During the search, they discovered a number of other identity documents in the name of deceased persons, as well as a system of manufacturing counterfeit Social Security cards," according to the BMV.
A marijuana growing operation was also found on the campsite, with grow lights and a number of marijuana plants in different stages of maturity, according to the press release.
The grow operation and plants were seized and charges were brought in a Lewiston court against the couple. The couple was indicted on the charges and remains in custody.

Rodents of Unusual Size do exist. We know because we just ate one. Here's how it happened.
Jeff Springer, Quinn Costello, and I are making a documentary, Rodents of Unusual Size, about the legions of 20 pound swamp rats that are eating away the fragile coastal wetlands of Louisiana. These giant rodents, known as nutria, were imported from Argentina in the 1930's for their fur by the guy who invented Tabasco sauce, among many others. But after a series of unfortunate events the nutria escaped into the wild and the nutria population exploded.
Since nutria are vegetarians at heart they have proceeded to feast on the roots of wetland plants and have transformed much of the Bayou into high salinity wastelands. These "dead zones" no longer provide a functional buffer against hurricanes and also threaten the biodiversity that supports migratory bird and plant life.
To do battle with this invasive species the Louisiana Dept. of Wildlife and Fisheries has encouraged folks to do their part by eating these free-range rodents. Let's say that, even with famed Louisiana chefs like Paul Prudhomme taking a stab at swamp rat sausages, tamales, jerky and other creations, people have been reluctant to embrace nutria for human consumption.
But while on location filming we kept hearing stories about the nutria's delicious, low fat, high protein meat and coastal residents who celebrated the nutria as tasting "better than steak." So we thought, gators like to snack on nutria, why not us?
After-all we are offering artisanally prepared nutria meat as one of the rewards as part of our Kickstarter fundraising campaign and we couldn't unleash it onto the world without giving it a try.
The anticipation was huge. Would it be "better than steak" as one of our interviewees swore it would? Would it taste like a swamp rabbit? Would it even be edible?
You can check out our thoughts and impressions in our video review.
Some hearty hunters bagged 8 nutrias for us and we had them processed by a butcher who was legendary for his skills at making nutria not only palatable, but delectable.
Three ways to prepare the meat did battle in our scientifically rigorous taste test: Snack Stix, sausage on a bun (with a touch of Tabasco sauce) and nutria jambalaya.
Nutria Snack Stix - This curious item runs about 6" to 7" in length. They are basically like a thicker Slim Jim minus the snap. Overall, what you're going to notice on the first bite is a strong smoky natural meat flavor, but one that is well countered by the Cajun seasonings and a moderate amount of heat that builds up with each chew.
They have a fresh pepperoni like kick with an oily surface feel. The stix have some flexibility to them and don't easily crack open with any amount of bending. Chewing was easy and there isn't a high degree of saltiness.
We decided that the mixture of the flavors helped to make the nutria meat palatable but the addition of the spices seemed to be hiding the actual flavor of the meat. Our findings were inconclusive.
Nutria Cajun Sausage - These chunky links tasted wild and exotic. The slight garlic and cayenne flavors percolated on the tongue, but were quickly overwhelmed by a taste we have to describe as the flavor of the "swamp". One of us thought it tasted like a morgue, while another tasted a hint of walnuts. You're definitely in unique flavor country here as the true taste of the nutria meat really came out, for a perplexing culinary experience.
This item provides a nice real meat flavor for a medium grind sausage that can work well on the grill if its tended carefully, but given the meat's natural leaness you have to watch that it doesn't get too dry. If we were to try it again we'd choose to boil it in water or an Abita beer, bratwurst style.
Nutria Jambalaya - Like a film crew, the nutria meat seems to work best in collaboration. It really shined in this dish as it easily took on all of the spices & flavors associated with Louisiana cooking. The long simmer and slow cooking time resulted in a soft, moist meat and a jambalaya with a light tanginess and a smoky background in each bite.
We're not convinced eating nutria meat will ever go mainstream, as heck look at those big orange teeth and long rat like tail. Nonetheless, nutria can be quite tasty. It truly is the other OTHER white meat.
If you are interested in scoring some nutria meat for yourself or checking out some clips from the film, you can visit the ongoing Kickstarter campaign for Rodents of Unusual Size here:

Create: Cornbread Redux
Not Exactly Cornbread
Photography by Janet Warlick
Anyone who has read Michael Pollan's essay on corn in The Omnivore's Dilemma knows corn is in everything these days. Our ancestors were happy to have it and it often was the only choice, so they found lots of ways to transform it into sustenance.
Crescent Dragonwagon, former owner of Dairy Hollow House in Eureka Springs, Ark., sums it up best in The Cornbread Gospels: "Every part of the corn plant — the second-most plentiful cereal grown on earth for human consumption — serves us in some way. The husks of corn are traditionally used in making tamales, the kernels for food, the stalks for cattle and hog food (silage) and the silks for medicinal tea. You can fry in corn (corn oil), bake with it (cornmeal, of course), snack on it (popcorn, tortilla chips), sweeten with it (corn syrup), thicken with it (corn starch) and get drunk on it (bourbon)."
There are legions of recipes for muffins, pancakes, fritters and salads using cornmeal and cornbread. I decided to offer some contrasting choices, traditional and unexpected, for this month: skillet cornbread; cornbread stuffing; cheddar polenta; and a lovely pear cornmeal tart for dessert. Happy Thanksgiving!
Not Exactly Cornbread
This recipe is a personal favorite. It's definitely not traditional; this buttery cornbread is spruced up with dried fruit. I really like the contrasting flavor the fennel seeds provide.
Dry Ingredients:
• 1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2/3 cup yellow cornmeal (not coarse)
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
• 1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 2 large eggs
• 1 ½ cups well-shaken buttermilk
• ½ cup golden raisins
• ½ cup dried cranberries
• 1 ½ tablespoons fennel seeds, optional
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Melt butter, and set aside to cool. Butter and flour 2 medium loaf pans, 8 inches by 4 inches by 3 inches. Line with parchment paper for easy removal. Coarsely chop raisins, cranberries and fennel seeds, if using, with two or three pulses in the food processor. Stir together dry ingredients in a large bowl. Whisk wet ingredients together in a separate bowl.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just to combine. Stir in the chopped fruit. Divide the batter into the loaf pans, smooth the tops and let stand for 10 minutes. Bake in the middle of the oven until tops are pale golden and a tester comes out clean, about 35 to 40 minutes.
Cool in pans about 10 minutes then turn onto a rack and cool completely.
Notes: Currants can be substituted for golden raisins and fresh or frozen cranberries if you don't have dried. Don't skip the "let stand 10 minutes" step.
Adapted from Gourmet Magazine
Dairy Hollow House Skillet Cornbread
Improve on this classic by pouring the batter into an already-hot skillet coated with sizzling butter, which results in a crispy crust outside and a moist, tender inside.
• Vegetable oil cooking spray
• 1 cup unbleached white flour
• 1 cup stone-ground yellow cornmeal
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon baking soda
• 1 ¼ cups buttermilk*
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 egg
• ¼ cup mild vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons butter or mild vegetable oil
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 10-inch cast iron skillet with oil, and set aside. Sift together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl; set aside. In a small bowl, stir the baking soda into the buttermilk, then whisk in the sugar, egg and ¼ cup oil.
Put the prepared skillet over medium heat, add the butter and heat until the butter melts and just starts to sizzle. Tilt the pan to coat the sides and bottom.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and combine them quickly, using as few strokes as possible. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, and bake the cornbread until it is golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool for a few moments and slice into wedges to serve.
*Tip: No buttermilk? Use regular milk and stir in juice of half a lemon, about 1 tablespoon.

Sausage Cornbread Stuffing
Everyone needs a cornbread and sausage stuffing recipe. This one incorporates fennel and cranberries or apples, for contrast. The Dairy Hollow House cornbread is a great match for this recipe.
• 1 8-inch-by-8 inch pan plain cornbread recipe, not sweetened
• 1 pound quality bulk breakfast sausage
• 3 medium leeks, thoroughly washed and sliced, greens discarded
• 1 bulb fennel, sliced, greens discarded
• 1-2 cups pickled cranberries — fresh, frozen or dried*
• 1 cup turkey broth
Make the cornbread. Cool. Remove from pan, crumble onto cookie sheet and dry slowly in an oven at 170 degrees, until crispy. Sauté sausage; remove from pan. Sauté leeks and fennel until soft. Combine cornbread, sausage, leeks, fennel and cranberries in a large bowl. Pour in turkey broth. Bake, covered, in a 13-inch-by-9-inch pan for 45 minutes at 350 degrees.
*Note: you may substitute 1 to 2 cups chopped tart apple, if desired.

Cheddar Baked Polenta
Polenta is Italian grits and can be made with water, chicken broth or a combination of milk and cream. As long as the grains are cooked long enough to open and soften, it can be eaten at any stage from soft to firm and grilled. It also holds in the refrigerator easily and can be combined with almost any cheese.
• 5 cups 2-percent milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• Salt to taste
Combine milk, cream and cornmeal in a heavy saucepan. Cook on medium heat, stirring frequently for about 15 minutes or until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the pot. Turn heat to low, and add the cheese; stir until just combined. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Pour the polenta onto a sheet pan lined with parchment paper, and set in the refrigerator to firm and cool completely, about 3 hours.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. When ready to serve, cut the chilled polenta into desired shape or portions, place on a baking pan and warm in the oven for five minutes or until heated thoroughly.
Note: you can skip the 3 hours in the refrigerator and just let it set for 10 minutes or so on the counter before sprinkling with some extra cheese and reheating. How you serve it once it is cooked — soft, firm, grilled — is just a matter of personal taste.

Pear Cornmeal Tart
If you only make one recipe from this article, make this one! Perennially in demand at my house, this delightful and unusual tart combines the smooth texture of poached pears with the gritty texture of cornmeal.
Tart Shell:
• 1 stick plus 2 ½ tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into small pieces
• ¾ cup sugar
• 3 egg yolks
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ cup plus 1 tablespoon yellow cornmeal
• 1 teaspoon salt
Put the flour, cornmeal, sugar and salt into the food processor and scatter the butter on top. Process with 3 or 4 pulses just until the mixture resembles coarse meal.
Beat the egg yolks lightly. With the machine running, pour the egg yolks in a steady stream through the feed tube and process just until the dough comes together — you may need a small amount of ice water. Stop the machine as soon as the dough masses on top of the blade — over-processing will make a tough pastry. Turn the dough onto a lightly-floured board, gather into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes to 1 hour.
Poached Pear Filling:
• 2 cups full-bodied red wine like cabernet sauvignon or merlot
• ¼ cup sugar
• 3 whole cloves
• 3 long strips of lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 pounds firm d'Anjou pears, peeled & cored — weigh after peeling and coring — cut into fat slices, then cut crosswise in half
• ½ teaspoon cornmeal
• 1 egg, beaten
Heat the wine, sugar, cloves, lemon zest and cinnamon to a boil in a heavy, medium-sized saucepan. Gently boil until reduced to 1 ½ cups, about 15 minutes. Stir in the pears, and cook over medium heat until tender but not mushy, about 15 minutes. Strain the pears, discard cloves and lemon peel. Cool to room temperature.
Butter an 8 ½-inch fluted tart pan with removable bottom. Cut the pastry in half and return half to the refrigerator. Roll out the dough, and ease into the tart pan. Build up the edge so that it is substantial enough for the top pastry to be attached.
Sprinkle ½ teaspoon cornmeal on the bottom of the shell to soak up juices from the pears. Spoon the well-drained pears into the tart shell. Roll out the remaining dough; place over the pears, pressing the edges together and crimping decoratively. Lightly brush the crust with the beaten egg.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Bake until golden, about 40 minutes. Cool on a rack. Serve warm or at room temperature with lightly-whipped cream.
