Scandinavian-Inspired Recipe: Avocado & Bacon Club Sandwich Cake
Last week we introduced you to the Swedish Smörgåstårta (aka Sandwich Cake). Did you love the idea? Were you perhaps just curious about it? I was indeed curious, but I didn't want to shell out big bucks for a ton of seafood if it didn't work out. Instead, I made something a little more Super Bowl friendly and recognizable to American palates. Think of it as a club sandwich on steroids. (And in this case, that's a good thing!)
Sandwich cake is all about the presentation. It's a magical surprise. No one knows what the inside looks like and it doesn't really matter. Decorating with food is rather fun. Have you ever walked through your produce department and thought of everything as decoration? Finding pretty peppers and healthy looking greens is just half the battle.
The inside of this cake was pressed together and bound by a coating of cream cheese and sour cream. Mixed in with those tasty fats is a little salt, black pepper and garlic powder. Think of it as thick dip — and who doesn't like dip!
I found myself snacking on the cut-off crusts with a little on top. It's darn tasty, and I found myself eating more crust snacks than I should probably admit to in such a public place. Let's just say it's not bad if there are leftovers.
So what's in this bad boy? All good things, my friends! We went for American staples like turkey, ham, bacon, avocado... is your mouth watering yet? What really matters is that it tastes as good on the inside as it looks on the outside.
Now here's where you can get fancy, or you can make it easy. If you're the type to make your own mayonnaise, then go ahead. If you're the one who wants to pick up thick cut turkey from your deli, blaze a trail! If you're all right with grabbing a bag of shredded lettuce because it's on sale for $0.79, then that's fine, too. You can dress your sandwich cake for the prom or the Sadie Hawkins Dance, but either way you'll have good times.
If you're still not sold on why this is a good recipe for your next party, let's take a closer look at a few of those ingredients to get you in the spirit, shall we?
First, there's bacon. Beautiful glowing bacon.
Next up is ham. Now this pile of diced ham is getting ready to mingle with those cute little pickles.
Everything is cuter in miniature size.
Mix your ham and pickles with a little mayo and spices and you have ham salad. If you want to go all out, run it through a meat grinder. Ham salad was probably a staple at your grandparent's house and it's pretty tasty in Sandwich Cake.
Avocados are so good we didn't dare leave them out of this creation. Not only do they act as a glue to keep things bound together, they meld together with a bit of mayo to keep their color and help balance out the tangy cream cheese exterior.
The base of the cake is made from layers of fresh bread. In this case we picked up a few loaves of sourdough. But you can pretend I made them.
The assembly process isn't as tricky or exact as it seems it would be. If you watch videos online of pro Swedish chefs taking a stab at this creation, they're usually made on a grand scale intended to feed at least 20 people or more. I liked the idea of something more modest to serve 6-8. The recipe below makes two of these cakes.
They can be made in advance, so they're great for entertaining. Use them as the appetizer or the main dish! Are you ready to see how to whip one up in your own kitchen? Right this way:
Free Form Club Sandwich Cake
4 to 7 inch bread loaves, such as the boules pictured here
1 medium avocado
3/4 cup mayonnaise, divided
Kosher salt to taste
Ground black pepper to taste
Garlic powder to taste
6 to 10 ounces cubed ham
10 small gherkin dill pickles, diced
3 tablespoons butter, softened
6 strips bacon, cooked
8 to 12 slices turkey meat
1/2 red onion, sliced thinly
Icing for the Sandwich Cake
8 ounces cream cheese
4 ounces sour cream
Kosher salt to taste
Ground black pepper to taste
Garlic powder to taste
Garnish Options
1 red pepper
6 radishes
1 handful of shredded lettuce
3 tablespoons crumbled bacon
1 bunch parsley (leaves only)
Slice boules into 3/4"to 1" thick slices. Remove crusts with knife. In a small bowl combine avocado and 3 tablespoons mayonnaise. Season with a pinch of salt, pepper and garlic salt and set aside. In a separate bowl combine ham, pickles, remaining mayo, another pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic salt and stir until well mixed. Set aside.
Butter slices of bread with softened (not melted) butter. Place base layer of bread on a plate or piece of parchment paper (for easy transfer to a serving piece later). Add 1/4 of avocado mixture. Next, add half of your bacon and then half your turkey. Add 1/4 more avocado mixture to the bottom side of the next piece of bread. Press second piece of bread down on top. Use a scrap piece of bread to help press things together to avoid getting butter fingers.
Add ham salad mixture and press together. If you happen to have a ring mold this can help, but being gentle with a spoon works fine, too. Layer on your onions and then top piece of bread.
At this point, things might look a little, well, messy. Use a pair of kitchen shears to snip off any stray meat bits that might be hanging out. Mix together cream cheese and sour cream for exterior icing. You can use a hand mixer or soften your cream cheese in the microwave (30 seconds on high and 10 second intervals after that until soft enough to stir the lumps out) first. Add seasonings (salt, pepper, garlic salt).
It's time to ice! Your goal isn't perfection.Your garnishes will cover most mishaps and in the end, it's a cake made of sandwich, so no one will be criticizing your icing job. If it helps, place a wooden skewer through the middle of the cake layers to hold things together.
Ice like a traditional cake and add garnishes. Get creative, look through other ideas online (find lots of reference here) or just wing it (like I did) and trust your gut. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
Repeat steps above to create second cake. Once cakes are chilled and icing has "set" cut each cake into 3 to 4 pieces depending on how hungry you are. Serve and enjoy!
Note: This recipe can also make one larger layered cake instead of two smaller ones. Stay under 12" and you'll be alright to use whatever bread you can get your hands on.

That looks incredibly delicious. One question - how in the heck did you eat it?
Cake is messy, but cuts easily with a fork...boules, not so much. I'm very curious how you get this in your mouth other than Tom Jones style?
It has HAM SALAD inside??? I love ham salad! And bologna salad too! My mom used to make it for us all the time! My kids think it looks like cat food but I do not care. It's amazing. This looks amazing but I have the same question as MHAYS has - how do you eat it?
MHAYS - If you slice it with a bread knife, it cuts just fine. It does require a fork for eating. Although the bread is more chewy than cake is, it's not a problem in the slightest. Because this specific recipe stacks up a bit taller than the average mouth, you don't really shoot to eat a bite of each layer in every bite, so it all works out!
Love this, it's like fancy tea sandwiches on steroids! I am so having a tea party and serving one of these.
For the icing, could you use whipped cream cheese to make it easier to blend and spread? And HamiltonMKA, could you post the recipe for bologna salad? A neighbor used to make one but I never got the recipe? Thanks so much!
LISA - You could use whipped cream cheese, though I just popped mine in the microwave for a few seconds and didn't have a problem blending or spreading. Bonus, it was 2 bucks cheaper than the fancy whipped stuff.
Thanks, Sarah! I saw a ginormous one of these earlier this month (was it you who posted it?) and have been itching to try it, but was worried that "smeared with cream cheese" was not a look I could pull off...
Lovely! I'm a Swedish smörgåstårta lover, and I would love to try this version. Looks delicious.
Also, to everyone who's wondering how you eat smörgåstårtas - you eat them like a cake. With cutlery. As simple as that. :)
@LisaMartin There really is no "recipe" for bologna salad. You make it the same way as the ham salad in this recipe. I think it's key to grind up the bologna/ham though. It's just how my mom made it and that's what I like about it. The meat being all ground up fine. My mom would get 2 packs of Oscar Meyer bologna and add 1/3 of the pack to the grinder, then put in like 2-3 dill pickles, then another 1/3 of the meat, then 2-3 more pickles. Keep doing this until you get however much salad you want. Add a tablespoon at a time of mayo and mix into the meat. I like mine very mayo-ish. Then add salt & pepper and that's it. Eat on very soft bread.
I feel like a fraud posting this really processed food type recipe! LOL! ;o)
Thanks Hamiltonmka! I know my neighbor used the ends of cold cuts, processed cheese (like Velveeta), pickle juice and mayo. Just didn't know the amounts. Your recipe sounds yummy to me!
Thank you for the step by step! I really want to try this!
I saw the post earlier this month, but didn't want to spend $50+ bucks on seafood, and not have it turn out. BUT THIS!!!! I am so trying this. Every ingredient I get hungier and hungier.
Can't wait to make this one! Will pack it in cooler 'on ice' for planning meeting coming soon! YUM!

TORONTO - With the playoffs in their sights three weeks ago, the last thing the Raptors expected to be talking about, with 18 games remaining in their arduous season, is the future.
However, as the heart of March quickly approaches, sporting a record 14 wins south of .500, that is exactly where they find themselves; looking towards and planning for what they hope will be a more promising future.
"Right now, where we are, where we're going, you're probably going to see different lineups," admitted coach Dwane Casey, who has used a league-most 21 different starting lineups this season. "We're trying to find out what we have. When you're growing and trying to develop, there's different things that come into play."
One of the top priorities on Casey's end-of-season to-do list will be finding more playing time for rookies Jonas Valanciunas and Terrence Ross. "They're going to play," he said following the team's Tuesday morning practice, "but it's going to be teaching [and] coaching instead of just giving playing time."
Evident from his decision to pull Valanciunas late in Sunday's win over Cleveland for getting "caught up in the speed of the game", Casey still expects his rookies to earn their stripes. "That's what we don't want to do, is develop bad habits," he continued. "Two or three mistakes, but not multiple mistakes."
Both rookies exceeded 20 minutes of action in the same game Sunday for the first time since Dec. 12 and only the sixth time this season. After getting off to a slow start in that contest, they were a crucial part of the team's second-half push, combining for 19 points on 5-of-8 shooting in the third quarter.
"I do see the process going forward. I get criticized for using the word process but that's what it is, a process. I'm an old Kentucky boy so I don't know too many other fancy words but it is a process and the process is on the right track."
Injured Forwards
There were no concrete updates on the status of either Rudy Gay or Andrea Bargnani Tuesday, as the team continues to weigh their options on the best course of action with each player. Both forwards had tests done Monday after missing Sunday's game, Gay with lingering back pain and Bargnani with a strained right elbow that he re-injured in Los Angeles last week.
The team's doctors are still going over the results of their tests before coming to a decision regarding their availability. Rudy Gay will be a game-time decision in Boston on Wednesday while Bargnani, who did not make the trip, will not play.
Praising Amir
These days you don't need a special occasion to praise Amir Johnson, it's just become the thing to do. Of course, if you've seen him play recently you know he's more than deserving of any local acknowledgement after flying under the radar league-wide for most of his remarkable 2012-13 season.
Johnson is averaging career highs in points (10.1), rebounds (7.3), assists (1.5) and minutes (just under 28 per game) in this his eighth NBA season.
"He's just relentless," said Alan Anderson, expressing his admiration for Johnson's subtle, yet game-changing contributions. "We don't call no plays for Amir but he ends up with 20-something [points] and 12, 13 plus rebounds every game so that just goes to show what type of person [and] player he is. He just brings it every night. Every time he's out on that floor he spills it."
"He's only 25 still, I mean he looks old but he's still young," Kyle Lowry said jokingly of Johnson, who came into the league out of high school back in 2005. "He's playing and growing into his potential."
Johnson is starting to get some recognition as a dark horse in the race for this year's Most Improved Player, most notably from Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski, who recently campaigned for him over Twitter. Although All-Stars Paul George of the Pacers and Jrue Holiday of the 76ers are considered to be the favourites for the award, Johnson's work has vaulted him into the conversation.
"He's played really well," Lowry continued. "If you look at the numbers he's been pretty outstanding. He's probably been our most consistent guy all year. Hopefully he gets more looks at that most improved [player] because he's been fantastic all year and he's gotten better."
Shipping Up To Boston
After dropping the first two meetings of the season, the Raptors travel to Boston for the third of four match-ups with the surging Celtics on Wednesday, 7:30pm et.
The Celtics -- who are in Charlotte to face the Bobcats Tuesday -- have surprised many observers, sitting a half game out of the fifth seed in the East and winning 14 of 19 since Rajon Rondo's season came to an abrupt end after tearing his ACL in January.
"You expect[ed] some type of drop off but that team is just good," Lowry said. "They're 15 guys strong, everyone's together, everyone knows what they're going to do and they take pride in what they do."
Kevin Garnett, who had a season-high of 27 points in Toronto last month, and Paul Pierce have helped pick up the slack without their All-Star point guard. "They're champions, they're MVPs those two guys, they're first ballot hall of famers, I believe," Lowry exclaimed. "They just know how to play and win games, they've been doing it they're whole careers."
Meanwhile, the Celtics have won nine straight at home, seven of them against winning teams and haven't lost to the Raptors at the TD Garden since Jan. 23, 2008, a stretch of nine meetings in Boston.
"That's a tough place to play. The Garden is special for those guys but we can go in there and win that game. If we go in there and play our type of game that we're going to play and make sure we dictate the game there's always a chance we could go in there and get that win."

Venice, Italy • Oscar-winning director Hayao Miyazaki's animation studio says ''The Wind Rises," in competition at the Venice Film Festival, will be his last film.
Koju Hoshino announced Miyazaki's intention to retire Sunday, but declined to take questions, deferring to a news conference next week in Tokyo. ''He wants to say goodbye to all of you, '' the Studio Ghibli president said.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Miyazaki was not in Venice for the international premiere. His Italian distributor said he stayed in Japan for the domestic release.
Miyazaki, 72, is one of animation's most-admired and successful directors. He won an Oscar for ''Spirited Away" in 2003, and a Golden Lion for lifetime achievement in 2005.
''The Wind Rises," Miyazaki's 11th feature film, is a fantasy-filled look at the man who designed Japan's World War II fighter planes.

If you're trying to conceive, you've heard of the "fertile window," and you're probably focusing on your own right now. For the uninitiated, the term refers to a reportedly very small period of time during a woman's cycle when she is able to get pregnant.
Now comes down the pike a research study that may leave our sympto-thermal-charting friends' heads spinning.
A study published in an issue of the esteemed British Medical Journal says throw away the calendar and look skeptically at gauging your fertile time by gazing at cervical mucus and thermometers, even if you're a woman of normal fertility.
In "The timing of the "fertile window" in the menstrual cycle: day specific estimates from a prospective study" (Wilcox A, Dunson D, Baird D. BMJ 2000;321:1259-1262), researchers conclude that only about 30% of women actually experienced the typically referred-to "fertile window" (between days 10 and 17 of a cycle), even when they have reported regular cycles.
According to Dr. Allen J. Wilcox, Chief of Epidemiology Branch of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS), "The study was not designed with infertile women in mind, but it strongly implies that, on average, a woman's typical cycle length is very important to her ability to conceive."
The study, which took place in Durham, North Carolina where NIEHS is located, looked at:
In the statistical analyses, day-specific probability of fertility was calculated for the entire group, for women were subgrouped according to whether or not they reported regular or irregular cycles, and for regular-cycled women by their usual cycle length.
Dr. Wilcox noted that participants were not selected based on the regularity of ovulation cycle, but on their history of fertility issues or lack thereof.

Honoring 20 who make a difference
Teachers are a special breed. They are driven by a love of learning and a desire to impact young lives.
They spend countless hours devising lesson plans, working individually with students before and after school. They volunteer their time to assist with school activities and often spend their own money for supplies or rewards for a job well done. They make personal sacrifices of time, money and sometimes family to do what they do.
In return, they seek nothing more than the smile of a student whose imagination has been captivated; a hug from a student who needs one in return; or the words of thanks from a student whose mind has grasped a challenging topic.
But we believe they also deserve our thanks and recognition.
This is our first annual "Henrico's Top Teachers" issue – our way of saying "thank you" to 20 of the finest teachers in our county. Last year, we asked for your nominations of teachers whose efforts go above and beyond the call of duty, and we were overwhelmed with more than 120. Paring their ranks to just 20 was no easy task.
We thank each reader who took the time to nominate a worthy candidate. We know each teacher would appreciate the kind words we received. It's clear that many teachers in Henrico County have made a long-lasting impact on their students and students' parents and other relatives.
We're proud to present profiles of these preschool, elementary school, middle school and high school teachers, who were selected for inclusion in this issue based on their professional successes and their personal touches. Each one has, in his or her own unique way, touched hundreds of lives and helped mold the future of Henrico County.
"There are so many teachers out there who are so worthy," one of our 'Top Teachers' told us, upon learning of her selection. "It's just nice to know that somebody has noticed."
Judging from the nominations we received, in fact, many people have noticed. This issue has been an exciting journey for us – and we're already anxious for next year's issue.
A special thanks is due to Martin's, which graciously provided gift cards for each teacher, and to the Richmond Flying Squirrels, who provided tickets to their Teacher Appreciation Night at The Diamond in June for each teacher and their families. Teachers will be recognized at the game, and one will have an opportunity to throw out the first pitch at the game.
Henrico teachers should be proud of what they do for the youngsters in our community. We certainly are.

Timothy Kimmons, 20, and Jessica Kirksey, 26, both of the 300 block of Bailey Street, were arrested by Minden Police on charges of distribution and possession of CDS Sch. I (marijuana).
Police Chief Steve Cropper said Lt. Danny Weaver, Sgt. Heath Balkom, Sgt. Chris Cheatham, Sgt. Wayne Young and Off. Chris Hammontree arrived on the couple's doorstep early Thursday with arrest warrants in hand.
"When officers knocked on the door and when the door was opened, officers looked down and immediately in front of the front door, in plain view was marijuana residue," Cropper said.
Both were reportedly arrested and advised of their rights and then officers asked and received permission to search the residence.
"Once inside the residence, officers located 234 grams of marijuana with a street value of around $1,120," Cropper said. "So additional charges were placed on both subjects."
Kimmons was charged with three counts of distribution of marijuana, according to the original warrant. After marijuana was found in the residence, he was also reportedly charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.
Kirksey's original warrant was for one count of possession of marijuana. She was also charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.
Both were booked at the Minden Police Department and transferred to Bayou Dorcheat Correctional Center.

LOUISVILLE, KY — Augustana's Theresa McMahon and Jenelle Trautmann have been named to the National Fastpitch Coaches' Association All-Central Region first team.
The Central Region is made up of schools from the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference, the Great American Conference and the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletic Association.
Both McMahon and Trautmann earned first team NFCA All-Central Region honors last season.
McMahon, a utility player for the Vikings, is batting .358 this season with a team-high 59 hits and nine doubles. She has belted nine home runs this season while picking up 28 RBI. McMahon owns a .576 slugging percentage and a .456 on-base percentage and has accounted for 95 total bases. As a utility player for the Vikings, McMahon has 237 putouts, 19 assists and just one error on the season for a .996 fielding percentage.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- The relief of Kentuckiana drivers after the reopening of the Sherman Minton Bridge could be short lived. Road construction projects with significant lane closures are slated for the spring and summer on the Kennedy Bridge, I-65 and I-71.
The rumble of Kennedy Bridge potholes will be targeted in a compressed 30 day project to start sometime after Memorial Day and complete by August 15.
The work to replace expansion joints and resurface the bridge deck will require two lanes of each direction of the I-65 span to be closed for up to 12 straight days.
That will leave only one of the three southbound lanes to remain open and only two of the four northbound lanes will remain open.
As a result, the Indiana Department of Transportation plans a truck detour routing semi-trucks from I-65 southbound to I-265 west to I-64 east, across the Sherman Minton Bridge.
"This will serve as an alternate route for all other motorists to use as well," said INDOT spokesman Greg Prince. "INDOT will use traditional signage, overhead, and portable message boards to alert and redirect traffic where needed."
About 120,000 vehicles use the Kennedy Bridge each day.
A separate project will affect I-65 in Louisville, from "Hospital Curve" downtown to the Watterson Expressway to the south.
Replacing the concrete median barrier will trigger the left lanes in both directions to be closed for nine consecutive days prior to Thunder over Louisville on April 19.
Then, on two separate weekends between the Kentucky Derby on May 5 and August 1, I-65 northbound and southbound will be shut down on alternating weekends for the replacement of the interstate's asphalt surface.
Bridge deck repairs on I-71 that were suspended to accommodate detour traffic during the Sherman Minton closure are expected to resume soon. Asphalt replacement and guardrail repair on I-71 will require lane closures in April. As part of the road contract, no lane closings are allowed on three key weekends, Memorial Day, Thunder Over Louisville and Derby weekend.
The I-71 work is contracted to finish by June 1.
Meanwhile, painting of the newly reinforced tie-cords on the Sherman Minton Bridge is closing one lane of eastbound I-64 during off-peak hours. All lanes will be open each weekday morning for peak traffic between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m. Temperature-sensitive painting operations will occur during 30 work days as weather permits this winter and spring, INDOT said.
Also in Southern Indiana, an I-265 road resurface project is scheduled to be let in March. In April, a project is scheduled to be let for the addition of auxiliary lanes on S.R. 311 (Charlestown Rd.) and S.R. 111 (Grant Line) ramps.

Something I Never Wanted to Say
A couple of months ago, I was sexually assaulted in the Bronx and don't want to tell you about it. I want you to like the Bronx as much as I do, despite — and because of, sometimes — its grit. But I want to be honest about the intricacies of doing what I do, so here it is:
I could say it was a weekday after work around 3 p.m. in the sun, but that doesn't matter. I could say that I was grabbed from behind and forced to the deserted ground by a big man, that I had a box cutter held to my ribs with such intensity that it took a month for the marks to fade, that my face took on a purplish tan of bruises, cuts, blood, that I went limp under his body until I could kick and knock my way out with my head and legs, that it seems dizzying to type all of this but it's easier to do all in one long sentence. I'd like to feign nonchalance and say that I can defend myself. I know that's silly to say. Things could have turned out differently.
"Shut up, you stupid cunt."
I ran, I think. I ran, but I don't remember. There was bricks and shrubs and limping. Maybe I should remember.
I rode the subway downtown and switched to another train home. People in the Bronx didn't pay attention. People in Manhattan stared, yet avoided my eyes. I realized my phone was gone.
"Scream and see what happens to you."
What happened to me was foreign in the world I had returned to, in the safety of my neighborhood in Queens.
I couldn't close my jaw right.
"Bitch, you say one word, this knife hit the ground through you."
I made up a story afterwards for people that had to see me, largely because I didn't want anyone to know. I could hear the voices going on about safety, how foolish I am to ever be walking in the South Bronx alone, despite my working there and wanting to enjoy the neighborhood. How, I, as a woman, need to be vigilant, that people there are dangerous. Saying something negative about the area seemed a betrayal, but here I was, unable to stand under the shower spray for weeks without wincing, losing the ability of good dreams.
The neighborhood I so love has a myriad of problems, among them a commonplace violence that is near cultural and that, at times, runs amok. Things are stolen and sold: sex, money and drugs. It's lovely too, with its soul and its hydrants in the summer and expressive, colorful population.
There seems to be sides to the media — exposition of the streets' darkness and a reactive, combative effort to show scenes of lightness, of beauty. But things are ambiguous. The neighborhood improves, but it staggers in its strides towards normalcy.
It's true, what happened to me could happen anywhere, but it's more likely to happen in certain parts of the Bronx. Violence has infiltrated and woven into large segments of the community, and things need to be fixed. It doesn't mean the area is worth holistically fearing. On the contrary, it's worth understanding.
"Don't even look at me, bitch."
Afterwards, not knowing what else to do, I went to Hunts Point. People looked me in the eye there, expressed outrage, defense and an innate understanding, though I didn't say what had happened. To them, my face wasn't a surprise but something of a fact of life. "You show me who did this. You know I'd go back to Rikers for you."
The response was a very Bronx-like thing, to become irate and to move on, the attitude and reality in a place where solutions aren't easy to find.
I felt a skim of the risk that people there have grown up beneath and periodically face, things about which they have to worry for themselves or for their wives or children. The point of my writing this isn't about me, but about a swab taken from the life of a neighborhood.
By coincidence, soon afterwards I received a letter, part of which reads as follows:
Hi, Cassie. I'm writing to you on behalf of a friend of mine who's currently studying photography in Manhattan. She's really interested in photojournalism and bringing awareness to issues of poverty and injustice that are so prevalent in so much of New York City, and yet so often get ignored. Her main barrier in pursuing this is fear and insecurity stemming from her status as a young woman. I was wondering if you had any advice on how you, as a female, overcame the stereotypes of violence and danger in order to commit to working in the more invisible areas of the city, like Hunts Point. I would really appreciate if you had any advice I could share with her, because the world really needs more people willing to show the truth!
This letter sat mutely in my inbox for a week before I could reply. What to say, after all this. I couldn't, in right mind, blindly cheer for another woman to do something similar. I still can't. I recounted a small bit of what had happened to me, and I never heard from her again. That, to me, was tragic, that someone who might have been impassioned instead was lost.
But we have to admit what can happen and what does happen and be willing to fight for something beyond it. What I felt was minimal, something briefly dealt to a wisp passing through. The community feels it all.
In the end, my message to the young student, and to you, is this: Don't be scared. Don't nurture your fear for a neighborhood you know little about. Be willing to love and support an area and to make and encourage positive growth. In other words, respect it. I had a scuffle— they have thousands. Realize that your fear and what you've been told to believe about a place is symptomatic of both its problems and what gossip has cultivated. Communication about the issues is weak, which you know because you want to get into talking about them. Work for what you believe in in a way that fits you, and push yourself. Take care, always, but fucking fight because it's for something.
I witnessed a drug deal today, actually not my first. It was in a gas station parking lot. My dad and I were just like "ooo you doin druuugs!" Then we were like "lol you are wasting money."
I DID IT AGAIN: My Inaugural post
So I'm just going to get it out of the way and say:
I did it again.
I fucked up.
I'm addicted to something and now I'm living with the consequences of that addiction.
I've decided to begin this blog to help me on my road of recovery and perhaps become a cautionary tale.
You see, it all…
I'm sick and it's so weird that the only thing I think about is how if I could drink everything would be okay and I wouldn't get sick because alcohol kills germs.
My sponsor told me that I should journal everyday… That means daily text posts! (She says I'm going to have a lot of feelings I don't understand because I'm so used to being numb all the time)
i feel like shit
i am shaking. I'm depressed, my head hurts. im high. i have to work from 3:30-almost 11, its new years eve and all i want to do is have some fun and smile for once in a while…

I'm nursing and still taking some bp meds: Procardia XL 30mg 1x daily. It works ok for me - actually - oddly enough - my pressures were better during this past pregnancy than they are now. It could be that I'm sitting a lot at home - one week out from delivery - and my pressure feels better when I get regular exercise - or it could be that I need a better/more effective medicine.
Does anyone know which BP meds are used or safe to use for breastfeeding women and babies?
I should make an appointment w/ my PCP this week.

On to the next round
Nov 20, 2012
By Ben Schorzman
Of the News-Register
Like it has been so many times this year, Linfield's defense was the star in its 27-24 win Saturday vs. Pacific Lutheran in the first round of the NCAA Division III playoffs.
The Wildcats forced five turnovers and held when they needed to most, and they move on to play at noon Saturday at home vs. North Central (Ill.) in the second round.
"I'm very proud of how our guys responded," Linfield coach Joseph Smith said, "and I loved how our defense played."
On a day when the Wildcats struggled on offense (Pacific Lutheran outgained Linfield 339-249), they needed the defense to hold strong. The Lutes had the ball for 11 more minutes than Linfield in the second half, but the 'Cats were able to do just enough.
"Today was a little frustrating on offense," said Linfield quarterback Mickey Inns, who threw for 210 yards. Inns was intercepted for the first time since Linfield's last game vs. the Lutes in September, and he didn't throw a touchdown pass for the first time this season. "But each side has the mentality that they're going to have to win the game, and the defense stepped up big time and took over that game."
Linfield's two biggest defensive stands came in the fourth quarter. The Lutes had cut Linfield's lead to 20-17 after a field goal by Jacob Schrader late in the third quarter. The Wildcats drove to the Lutes' 5-yard line, but Evan Peterson fumbled after catching a pass from Inns, and Pacific Lutheran recovered. On the Lutes' first play, Linfield linebacker Tyler Robitaille stepped in front of a Dalton Ritchey pass and walked into the end zone for the pick six.
"I was surprised," said Robitaille, who finished with six tackles including a forced fumble. "I just jumped it and ran it into the end zone."
The defense came up big on the Lutes' final drive of the game as well. Ritchey scored with 5:25 on a 13-yard run on fourth-and-inches to cut the lead to 27-24, and Pacific Lutheran's defense forced Linfield to punt, setting up one final possession. The Lutes took over at their own 22-yard line with 1:33 left in the game.
On the first play, Mike Maierhofer sacked Ritchey for a 13-yard loss. A couple plays later Ritchey hit Daniel Herr for 21 yards to the Linfield 41, but Brian Dundas sacked Ritchey again, and on fourth-and-16 Ritchey's pass was behind receiver Kyle Warner.
The Wildcats recovered three fumbles and Dominique Forrest also intercepted a Ritchey pass. Ritchey was sacked six times.
"The defensive line got great pressure on Ritchey," Forrest said. "It's been the same thing all year. The D line gets pressure and the quarterback makes some iffy throws. Props to those guys."
It took a while for Linfield's offense to find the end zone, but it did so twice in the second quarter. Kicker Josh Kay scored Linfield's first six points, kicking 47- and 42-yard field goals, but two Pacific Lutheran turnovers gave Linfield good field position, and Chad Coburn scored twice on short runs.
Linfield also struggled with turnovers, fumbling twice. Smith tried to take some of the credit for the offensive struggles, saying he handcuffed Inns a bit with his play calling, but the Lutes' pressure was more of a factor.
"That's a good defense with a lot of good athletes," Inns said. "I'm proud of the way we battled on offense. We just have to fix some ball security and poor decisions by me."
Notes: Ritchey threw for 284 yards and one touchdown for PLU. ... Warner caught 12 passes for 205 yards.
Next up
Linfield's next opponent, North Central of Illinois, beat Cal Lutheran 41-21 in Thousand Oaks, Calif. in the first round.
"It will be fun to play somebody new," Smith said. "I know that's something the whole team is excited for. It's hard to beat the same team twice."

I know it's probably just protocol but...
My 2.5y/o ate pokeweed berries the other day (they're toxic). She was outside with three of her siblings (my 9y/o was the oldest one out there) within view of the house (DH and I both were home but inside).
Anyway, the 9y/o brought her to the house as soon as she saw that she was eating them. By this time though my 2.5y/o was covered in purple (looks like she was probably squishing them and wiping her hands on her clothes) and it was obvious she had been eating them since even her tongue was purple (she was wiping her tongue so I assume they didn't taste very good).
I put her in the tub and called poison control. I wasn't terribly worried but needed to know what I should do since I didn't even want to let her drink anything without getting some information first.
So I explain to the RN on the phone what happened and she asked how many berries she ate. I said I didn't know but she's completely purple so I'm assuming at least 1/4cup or however many she could fit in her mouth at once (DD is kind of a glutton, lol ). The woman gasped and said: "That many?!?" and I reiterated I didn't know for sure, I was just guessing so she said: "Oh, okay, she probably didn't eat very many then." .
Then she proceeds to take down my info, ask if the child was supervised and by who and how old the person supervising was, If she goes outside without supervision often, etc...at this point I'm wondering why does it matter and for heaven's sake what am I supposed to be doing for DD??
I interrupted her and asked if there's anything I should be doing right *now* (drink of milk, water, etc..) and she said: "Oh...just wipe her mouth out and give her sips of water...if she throws up you're not going to want it to be a lot and probably not anything you don't want to clean up ). Well, I wasn't worried about cleaning up vomit...just wanting to make sure she's going to be fine and if there's anything I should be watching for other than a bellyache.
Oy, anyway, it frustrates me that she seemed far more concerned about whether or not she was supervised while eating the toxic berries than the fact that she actually had eaten them .
While camping, one of my DDs ate my thyroid meds (I had no idea she could even reach them!)...I called poison control and had to take her to ER where they gave her activated liquid charcoal (she still developed hyperT symptoms and I had to take her back the next day for follow up...poison control called several times to check up on her). They didn't question me at all like that...neither poison control OR ER.
So is it normal for them to question like that...especially *before* they give instruction about what to do for the child you're calling about?

A critical report leaves the Richmond Fire Department with plenty of work ahead of them. The Department took more than 30,000 calls for service in 2010, the year this report is based on.
Overall, they did a pretty good job, but that doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement.
In the 135 years the Richmond fire department has been around, they have seen quite a bit, but this report was something new.
"The fire department has never done this kind of systematic, a comprehensive organizational study," said Chief Roger Creccy
The study conducted by an independent firm analyzed every aspect of the department's work. It revealed more than 50 specific things than need to be fixed.
Among them? Improve response times. The report gave the department credit for meeting national standards, but said with some changes in their process things could be even better.
It also suggested fixing communications break downs and upgrading the stations.
Even moving their locations could make it easier to get to calls quicker.
Finally the report suggests improvements to the dispatch operation should lead to more efficient delivery of emergency services.
Chief Creecy is still digesting the report. He is hopeful his department will be able to meet its expectations.
"Their biggest fear is that they won't have the resources and enough people on the team to be able to work effectively and handle emergencies safely," he said.
It won't be an easy challenge. But at least they will now have a road map to guide their way.
The report cost $150,000 to put together. The majority of the recommendations are expected to cost little to implement.

A motorcyclist was killed early Wednesday morning when he was struck by an 18-wheeler on a Hopkins County highway.
Hopkins County dispatchers received a call about a wreck on Highway 19 south of FM 71 in Birthright just before 1 a.m. The community of Birthright is just north of Sulphur Springs.
According to the investigating trooper, the driver of an 18-wheeler was coming up over a small ridge when he saw something in the roadway. The driver swerved to avoid it and that's when he could tell he hit something, and called authorities.
The driver of the motorcycle, 51-year-old, Billy C. Martel was pronounced dead at the scene. Authorities believe Martel may have already wrecked and was lying in the roadway when the truck hit him.

Top Teachers: Janet Givens
Echo Lake E.S., first grade
Officially, Janet Givens teaches first grade at Echo Lake Elementary School. Unofficially, she teaches creativity.
Givens' classroom is a wonderland of ingenuity, a place where students learn the same lessons in a multitude of different ways. Students often lead their peers in lessons on her classroom Promethean board or create scrapbooks from field trip experiences. Mind-bender games challenge their knowledge.
During a popular lesson about the solar system, Givens takes her students outside to draw a 15-foot sun in chalk on the pavement, then uses a golf ball to represent the size of Earth.
"The visual perception of the concept will forever be embedded in my son's head," wrote one woman who nominated Givens.
Givens – who gave up a career in interior design and retail merchandising to become a teacher 15 years ago – traces the roots of her own creativity to her great aunt, an art teacher who instilled much of it in her at a young age.
"I like thinking of news ways to do things, or unusual ways – ways the kids relate to," she said. "I just really try to be me in my classroom, and part of me is, a lot of times, doing things a little bit differently."
Givens earned National Board Certified Teacher status in 2004 – an involved process that requires teachers to develop an extensive portfolio and complete several assessment exercises. She has taught first grade at Echo Lake since the school opened in 1999. She works to develop a personal connection with each student, believing that in turn they'll open up to her and be more eager to learn.
"I like to try to find that one little special thing that makes a child unique or challenging or special," she said.
Her efforts haven't gone unnoticed among parents.
"She recognizes the wide ability range of children in her class and manages to incorporate the advanced essentials of curriculum yet still meet the needs of those requiring a 'second helping,' one nominator wrote.
Givens is a regular participant in recess – "I'm usually the pitcher for kickball," she admitted – and considers one of her most meaningful teaching moments to be one that came outside the classroom. A student had earned the reward of running a mile with her after school, but he had difficulty convincing himself he could finish.
"That whole time I kept telling him, 'One foot in front of the other, you can do this – we're not going to stop, you can do this' – and he did," he recalled. "It was the best mile I ever ran with him. It's something that I carry with me."

Henricus Historical Park to host Publick Day Sept. 20
Citizen Staff Reports 09/15/2014
Henricus Historical Park will commemorate its anniversary during Publick Day, a signature annual event that celebrates the establishment of the second successful English settlement in the New World. In September 1611, Sir Thomas Dale, along with soldiers, tradesmen and farmers, ventured from Jamestown to create the Citie of Henricus. Leaders of Henricus developed the first English hospital, chartered the first college in North America, established tobacco as the first cash crop in Virginia, and created a place where Pocahontas lived and met John Rolfe.

Most credit applications contain a personal guaranty. In
this one, it's clearly spelled out in item No. 4, but in some
cases it's buried in a longer document and written in language
that makes it hard for the applicant to understand just what
he's agreeing to.
When the owner of a new or small business applies for credit,
he or she is frequently asked to provide a personal guaranty.
The guaranty is a contract between the owner and the creditor
that in essence says, "I agree to be personally responsible for
the debts of my business, so if the business doesn't pay, I
This has little effect on sole proprietors because their
personal assets are already at risk for their companies' debts.
But a guaranty presents a dilemma for the contractor who has
incorporated as a corporation or limited liability company
(LLC). These business entities are designed to prevent
creditors from accessing the owner's personal assets. When an
owner signs a personal guaranty, he is giving this access back
to the creditor.
The trick for the small-business owner is to understand when to
give the guaranty.
Creditors often request a personal guaranty when the
creditworthiness of the business is limited. The guaranty is
used to enhance credit by making personal assets —
otherwise unavailable to the creditor — available to
satisfy the debt.
Assuring payment. There are other reasons
creditors might want a guaranty. For example, they might want
to use it as leverage to assure payment. They reason that if a
business owner has to pay two debts, he will first pay the one
that puts personal assets at risk. If the business goes under
before the second creditor gets paid, that's just too bad
— it's the second creditor's problem.
It's worth noting that if the business does file for
bankruptcy, the court may undo recent preferential
In leasing transactions, a guaranty for moveable equipment may
provide greater assurance that the equipment will not
"disappear" if there is a default by a failing company. In
other transactions, the reason is simply "Let's put it on our
form and see if we can get it."
When a bank or equipment-finance company requires a guaranty,
the guaranty is typically on a separate form or in a labeled
section of the loan agreement and is often several paragraphs
Trade creditors, such as supply houses and lumberyards, often
bury a single-sentence guaranty in the credit application form;
it's easy to miss if you don't read the fine print. The
sentence may say something like this: "The undersigned, even if
a title is stat-ed, personally guarantees the prompt payment of
all amounts due from the applicant and agrees to be jointly and
severally bound with the applicant for any debt owed by the
Who should sign. If a guaranty must
be signed, a business owner should be the guarantor — not
a nonowning officer or employee. The bookkeeper or salesperson
who signs and submits the credit application with a guaranty
for the boss could be in for a surprise when he or she becomes
liable for the company's debts.
If there is more than one owner, it is usually best to make all
owners liable and to share the risk, preferably in a ratio
reflecting the ownership of the business, although most
creditors will require joint and several liability.
You may want to consult an attorney to draft an agreement
between the owners that says that if one owner provides a
guaranty on an authorized debt, all the owners will be
responsible to him if he has to pay a share in excess of the
percentage he owns.
There are ways to limit the potential damage of a guaranty. The
party requesting a guaranty will want it to be completely
unlimited, but remember that this is a contractual agreement,
so it should be negotiable.
If you do have to sign a guaranty, you want it to end as soon
as possible; a guaranty puts personal assets at risk, and
having too many of them can make you less creditworthy for
future loans.
Expansive guaranty. A guaranty may be
very expansive. It may cover all debt, including previously
existing debt or other debt that one of the owners owes the
lender. You may be able to limit the scope of the guaranty to
that transaction only.
The point is to carefully read all guaranties. If you have any
questions, consult an attorney.
You may be able to avoid giving a guaranty to a banking lender
by showing creditworthiness. If your entity has a net worth of
$100,000 and you sell only on a cash basis, there is probably
not much risk to a creditor if you want an open credit of
$10,000. But if you want to borrow $1 million to build your own
building, you should expect to give a personal guaranty.
Other situations may not be as clear for the small-business
Ending the guaranty. Many lenders require a
personal guaranty for real estate and development loans if the
borrower doesn't have a large equity stake in the property.
Equipment-financing transactions may also require a personal
guaranty. You may be able to arrange a "burn-off" of the
guaranty — that is, a guaranty that ends before the final
payment or when the "equity investment" exceeds a stated
percentage or dollar amount. This is good because it makes the
guaranty end sooner.
Leasing agreements. If you have to
sign a guaranty in connection with an equipment lease, be sure
to maintain control over the equipment so that you can return
it. If someone else ends up with the equipment and won't give
it back, you're the one who has to pay.
If you're a remodeler, you do not want to guaranty the debts of
your customers. But you may already be doing so if you are
ordering nonreturnable items or making deposits with your own
money based on the property owner's promise to pay you.
I tell my contractor clients to include language in their
contracts requiring the customer to pay all deposits and
potential restocking fees in advance, and then to collect those
amounts before placing the order. If there is going to be a
very large dollar order from a particular supplier, you might
want to have the owner open an account with that supplier and
pay him directly. Just be sure that your contract allows you to
mark the material up.
Lien rights. In many states, if the
supplier delivers material to a remodeling site (rather than to
your warehouse), the supplier will have lien rights against the
property owner. You may be able to convince a supplier to open
a separate account that you do not personally guaranty for
material that will be delivered to sites where there's a lien
right against the owner.
Credit cards opened in the name of the business may in some
instances have a personal guaranty. Be cautious giving these
cards to an employee. You may want to explore whether a credit
card can be limited to the assets of the business, even if it
costs you an annual fee.
At minimum, be sure that these cards do not have excessive
credit limits.

Oikos Greek yogurt is on sale at the Palisades Park NJ Shop Rite. 10 for 10 bucks. RUN! Don't walk.
I'm just going to come out and say it. Tobey Maguire is a creepy little man child. He weirds me out and I haven't slept well since I knew he existed. And now he's been added to the cast of the big screen adaptation of "Z for Zachariah". The film tells the story of a girl who runs the only farm left on the planet with breathable air after the world ends. Well I mean I guess it doesn't end. She's alive. People come and meet her. This doesn't sound so bad after all.
Everyone's favorite.... I don't really know, Lara Jean Chorostecki has been added ot the cast of the upcoming NBC show "Hannibal". She'll play Freddy Lounds in the series I've explained too many times to count so I'm not going to bother doing it again. I've still only seen "Silence Of the Lambs" so I have no clue what all this means.
Terry Crews is both lovable and frightening. It's kind of amazing. I wish I was him... a lot. And now he's been cast in "Scary Movie 5", a film which is both unnecessary and not wanted. Wait no, those two things mean the same thing. I'm awful at this. Anyway I don't know what role he's going to play but if I was going to guess I would say big hulky man who is afraid of everything. Just taking a shot here.
I know we're all still very upset about K-Stew-Pat-Son Gate 2012 and I'm not sure this new development is going to make things any better. It looks like Kristen Stewart has in fact been dropped from the sequel to "Snow White and the Huntsman." I know, it hurts. Apparently there's three films planned and K-Stew will no long appear in any of them. They may also go back and digitally remove her from the DVD version of the first film. Probably not though.
Remember that old SNL skit where Dan Aykroyd plays a sleazy toy maker and one of the toys he tries to sell kids is a broken bag of glass? Well I think this woman from Oklahoma saw it too because she' under arrest for spanking her 5 year old son with just that. Seriously, the skit is hilarious.
Looks like one of the guys who invented Crocs has been picked up for drunk driving. Wait no, it gets better, apparently he blamed his drunken antics on his girlfriend. Who did he claim was his girlfriend? Well Taylor Swift of course. I'll be honest I don't believe she's his girlfriend but I 100% believe this is all her fault.
We debate who the sexiest person in this film is, and you might be surprised by the answer (okay, maybe not).
"Snow White and the Huntsman" is a Hollywood engineered butterfly crawling from a craggy, slippery, gooey cocoon. Throughout the film I couldn't help but imagine how incredibly different it would have been had it been made under looser financial and studio concerns. There are just enough weird, gross, and critically minded themes reappearing throughout that it makes the remaining 75% of what we are given that much more frustrating and exhausting. This is particularly evident in the way the film's main antagonist Queen Ravenna (Charlize Theron) is framed.
Hollywood loves its unnecessary remakes, so it shouldn't be too surprising that they are looking at Pascal Laugeir's "Martyrs" for the official treatment. What is surprising is that "Twilight" producer Wyck Godfrey is looking at Kristin Stewart to headline.
Breck Eisner thrilled us all with his remake of "The Crazies" and is moving on to some non-horror related fare such as "Escape From New York" and "Flash Gordon". He'll be making his way back to the horror work though as he has taken on the rights to the classic Dracula comic "Blood of the Innocent".
Joe Lynch's upcoming horror comedy "The Knights of Badassdom" just got a whole lot hotter as "Firefly" alum Summer Glau signs on to the cast.
Need some more Sam and Dean Winchester in your life? You better hope so as Warner Brothers Japan is preparing 22 episode "Supernatural: The Animation"! Details on the new show are scarce at this time, but the official site talks of recreating some of the fan favorite episodes of the series as well as some new adventures mixed in.
A 16 year old British boy is heading to juvie for four months after microwaving his brother's 1 year old Golden Hamster.
A Wilton man is sentenced to five years in prison after hitting and killing a motorcycle rider in a case of drugged up driving. Despite the happy news of a man getting his just deserts for his crimes, the true horror is the charges of tampering with evidence after he drank his own urine to keep it from being tested for drugs while in the hospital.
1648 - Midwife Margaret Jones is hanged in Boston for witchcraft. It is the first such execution for the Massachusetts colony, but not the first in the colonies.

UPDATE: The polls have closed in the primary election. Find results here.
(WMC) - Decisions continue among Shelby County voters as they cast their ballots in the primary election. Polls open on Tuesday at 7 a.m. and close at 7 p.m. at locations across Shelby County.
The vote that tops the ballot is for the District General Attorney: Incumbent Republican Amy Weirich runs against the democratic candidate, former television judge Joe Brown.
Followed by the race for Shelby County Mayor, three democratic mayoral candidates—Rev. Kenneth Whalum Jr., current county commissioner Steve Mulroy, former commissioner Deidre Malone—will run until one makes it passed the primary, where he or she will then face the republican candidate or incumbent mayor Mark Luttrell in August. Ernest Lunati is running against Luttrell for the republican seat in the primary.
Democrats hoping to unseat Luttrell met for a debate recently where they discussed city-county consolidation.
Mulroy and Malone agreed with aspects of that topic.
Additionally, Whalum floated an ambitious plan to utilize soon-to-be-closed neighborhood schools. Watch parts of the debate here.
