Since 2001, I designed, produced, managed and contributed to mostly food-related websites and blogs for KQED including: KQED.org; KQED Food; Bay Area Bites; Check, Please! Bay Area; Taste This; Celebrity Chefs; seven of Jacques Pepin's TV series websites; and Joanne Weir's Cooking in the City. I initiated the majority of KQED Food's social media feeds and maintained them up until 2017. As far as content creation, photography is my passion and I also shoot video and write stories. My photos have been used in articles for KQED Food, News, Arts, and Science as well as for promotional purposes in print and online. Professional education and training includes: clinical psychology, photography, commercial cooking, web design, information architecture and UX.",

Nine years ago, he was visiting with members of \u003ca href=\"http://www.wafarmtoschool.org/Page/3/wsda-farm-to-school\">Washington State's Farm to School\u003c/a> office. Someone began talking about the achievement gap for low-income students and its implications for test scores. \"But they pointed out, 'Kids that don't have a proper breakfast can't learn by 10 a.m., so we don't really have a learning problem; we have a public health problem,' \" Lee remembers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost right then and there, he decided to start a food publishing house to address the link between kids' diets and how well they learn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn't exactly an obvious line of thinking, even for a person whose whole life is wrapped up in books. His first publishing house, \u003ca href=\"https://www.leeandlow.com/\">Lee & Low Books\u003c/a>, is known for diversity-focused titles about nearly extinct Puerto Rican parrots and fatherhood as celebrated by African American poets (Lee left the company in 2004). But thanks in part to the interests of his wife, June Jo Lee, a food anthropologist and ethnographer, Lee had become more interested in what kids were (or weren't) eating in school and elsewhere, how it affected their health, and how it affected their ability to do well in school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_125511\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 600px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85.jpg\" alt=\"Our School Garden! by Rick Swann and Christy Hale\" width=\"600\" height=\"750\" class=\"size-full wp-image-125511\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85.jpg 600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85-160x200.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85-240x300.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85-375x469.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85-520x650.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Our School Garden! by Rick Swann and Christy Hale \u003ccite>(Readers to Eaters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>One month after Michelle Obama opened her \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2016/10/06/496894618/michelle-obamas-kitchen-garden-will-keep-blooming-even-after-she-leaves\">White House garden\u003c/a> in March of 2009, the Lees launched \u003ca href=\"http://www.readerstoeaters.com/\">Readers to Eaters\u003c/a> — a pop-up shop selling food-themed books for both adults and children that help promote understanding about where food comes from and the diverse stories about how we eat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We didn't even have a business plan,\" Lee says. \"But suddenly, there was all this public dialog about food literacy, and school food directors were coming to me saying, 'We need an education program around food.' \" In other words, the timing for such a venture was suddenly just right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Says Lee, \"Our biggest customers were parents, and books for them [to read with their kids] were the most consistently lacking.\" So, in 2010, he began acquiring kids titles to publish himself. Readers to Eaters released its first picture book in 2012: \u003ca href=\"http://www.readerstoeaters.com/our-books/our-school-garden\">\u003cem>Our School Garden\u003c/em>\u003c/a>\u003cem>!\u003c/em> by Rick Swann and Christy Hale, in which a kid acclimates to a new town once he discovers his school has a garden. Quick on its heels was \u003ca href=\"http://www.readerstoeaters.com/our-books/sylvias-spinach\">\u003cem>Sylvia's Spinach\u003c/em>\u003c/a> by Katherine Pryor and Anna Raff, about a picky eater who comes to terms with her least favorite vegetable when she's able to grow it for herself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_125512\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 600px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/roychoi_custom-ba9438961688f071c75db203f3a5721484a96aa6-s600-c85.jpg\" alt=\"Chef Roy Choi And The Street Food Remix by Jo Lee and Jacqueline Briggs Martin\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" class=\"size-full wp-image-125512\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/roychoi_custom-ba9438961688f071c75db203f3a5721484a96aa6-s600-c85.jpg 600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/roychoi_custom-ba9438961688f071c75db203f3a5721484a96aa6-s600-c85-160x213.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/roychoi_custom-ba9438961688f071c75db203f3a5721484a96aa6-s600-c85-240x320.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/roychoi_custom-ba9438961688f071c75db203f3a5721484a96aa6-s600-c85-375x500.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/roychoi_custom-ba9438961688f071c75db203f3a5721484a96aa6-s600-c85-520x693.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chef Roy Choi And The Street Food Remix by Jo Lee and Jacqueline Briggs Martin \u003ccite>(Readers to Eaters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The stories weren't meant to preach, or even necessarily to change kids' minds about what they were consuming — at least, not in the short term. Rather, they aimed to start a critical conversation between parents and children. As Lee explains it, \"If kids aren't eating salad at school, it's because they don't eat it at home. Where our books come in is in getting families excited to talk about food around the dinner table.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Readers to Eaters has now published eight books, and five more are in the works. Its titles have been steadily garnering acclaim among educators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Its latest offering is \u003cem>Chef Roy Choi and the Street Food Remix\u003c/em> by Jo Lee and Jacqueline Briggs Martin. It follows the days of a real-life Korean-American food truck cook in Los Angeles, illustrated by Mexican-Angeleno graffiti artist Man One. The book recently won an award from the \u003ca href=\"https://www.socialstudies.org/\">National Council for Social Studies\u003c/a> and two others from professional organizations that recognized it as an outstanding non-fiction text. What these awards mean, practically speaking, says Lee, is that teachers around the country will begin using the book as a teaching tool.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Already, Lee estimates that as much as 80 percent of the company's sales are made to schools and libraries. Elementary teacher and librarian Craig Seasholes has used at least two Readers to Eaters titles in his Seattle-area classrooms. He says that his Mexican- and African-American students especially connect with the books' gentle, healthy-food message and relatable protagonists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_125513\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 600px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"596\" class=\"size-full wp-image-125513\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85.jpg 600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-160x159.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-240x238.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-375x373.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-520x517.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-50x50.jpg 50w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-64x64.jpg 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-96x96.jpg 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-128x128.jpg 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sylvia's Spinach by Katherine Pryor \u003ccite>(Readers to Eaters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The books have also been used in conjunction with the California Library Association's \u003ca href=\"http://www.cla-net.org/?587\">Lunch at the Library program\u003c/a>, which feeds school-age kids throughout the summer. Library manager Gia Paolini read \u003cem>Farmer Will Allen and the Growing Table\u003c/em> at her branch in Contra Costa County—a community where she says the vast majority of children qualify for free or reduced-price lunches. \"Just as we have to expose kids to as many words as possible, it's important to expose them to concepts, too,\" she says. \"Books about food plant the seed that [healthy] food is important and fun.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee has also organized a book give-away program through Washington State's farmers markets, and is talking to librarians in New York State about collaborating on a literacy program.\" I'm not inventing anything here,\" Lee says. \"I'm just making obvious connections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others are also beginning to make the connection between the desire of families to learn about food's origins and the need for books about it. The American Farm Bureau Foundation for Agriculture \u003ca href=\"https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/childrens/childrens-industry-news/article/76069-feeding-minds-press-to-bring-farm-to-readers-tables.html\">announced\u003c/a> in February that it was starting a line of picture books about how food is grown.

He then quotes a troubling statistic: In low-income neighborhoods where families struggle to get healthy meals on the table, there is one book, on average, \u003ca href=\"http://clifonline.org/resources/research/\">for every 300 children\u003c/a>. \"How do we get books out to them?

Nine years ago, he was visiting with members of \u003ca href=\"http://www.wafarmtoschool.org/Page/3/wsda-farm-to-school\">Washington State's Farm to School\u003c/a> office. Someone began talking about the achievement gap for low-income students and its implications for test scores. \"But they pointed out, 'Kids that don't have a proper breakfast can't learn by 10 a.m., so we don't really have a learning problem; we have a public health problem,' \" Lee remembers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost right then and there, he decided to start a food publishing house to address the link between kids' diets and how well they learn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn't exactly an obvious line of thinking, even for a person whose whole life is wrapped up in books. His first publishing house, \u003ca href=\"https://www.leeandlow.com/\">Lee & Low Books\u003c/a>, is known for diversity-focused titles about nearly extinct Puerto Rican parrots and fatherhood as celebrated by African American poets (Lee left the company in 2004). But thanks in part to the interests of his wife, June Jo Lee, a food anthropologist and ethnographer, Lee had become more interested in what kids were (or weren't) eating in school and elsewhere, how it affected their health, and how it affected their ability to do well in school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_125511\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 600px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85.jpg\" alt=\"Our School Garden! by Rick Swann and Christy Hale\" width=\"600\" height=\"750\" class=\"size-full wp-image-125511\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85.jpg 600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85-160x200.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85-240x300.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85-375x469.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/schoolgarden_custom-97621916488f6e5c7c7a80b48253724960aa5d5d-s600-c85-520x650.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Our School Garden! by Rick Swann and Christy Hale \u003ccite>(Readers to Eaters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>One month after Michelle Obama opened her \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2016/10/06/496894618/michelle-obamas-kitchen-garden-will-keep-blooming-even-after-she-leaves\">White House garden\u003c/a> in March of 2009, the Lees launched \u003ca href=\"http://www.readerstoeaters.com/\">Readers to Eaters\u003c/a> — a pop-up shop selling food-themed books for both adults and children that help promote understanding about where food comes from and the diverse stories about how we eat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We didn't even have a business plan,\" Lee says. \"But suddenly, there was all this public dialog about food literacy, and school food directors were coming to me saying, 'We need an education program around food.' \" In other words, the timing for such a venture was suddenly just right.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Rather, they aimed to start a critical conversation between parents and children. As Lee explains it, \"If kids aren't eating salad at school, it's because they don't eat it at home. Where our books come in is in getting families excited to talk about food around the dinner table.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Readers to Eaters has now published eight books, and five more are in the works. Its titles have been steadily garnering acclaim among educators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Its latest offering is \u003cem>Chef Roy Choi and the Street Food Remix\u003c/em> by Jo Lee and Jacqueline Briggs Martin. It follows the days of a real-life Korean-American food truck cook in Los Angeles, illustrated by Mexican-Angeleno graffiti artist Man One. The book recently won an award from the \u003ca href=\"https://www.socialstudies.org/\">National Council for Social Studies\u003c/a> and two others from professional organizations that recognized it as an outstanding non-fiction text. What these awards mean, practically speaking, says Lee, is that teachers around the country will begin using the book as a teaching tool.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Already, Lee estimates that as much as 80 percent of the company's sales are made to schools and libraries. Elementary teacher and librarian Craig Seasholes has used at least two Readers to Eaters titles in his Seattle-area classrooms. He says that his Mexican- and African-American students especially connect with the books' gentle, healthy-food message and relatable protagonists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_125513\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 600px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"596\" class=\"size-full wp-image-125513\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85.jpg 600w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-160x159.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-240x238.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-375x373.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-520x517.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-50x50.jpg 50w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-64x64.jpg 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-96x96.jpg 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-128x128.jpg 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2018/03/sylvia_custom-0170e83d74d7e399e9da24579fbb210004c6d3a0-s600-c85-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sylvia's Spinach by Katherine Pryor \u003ccite>(Readers to Eaters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The books have also been used in conjunction with the California Library Association's \u003ca href=\"http://www.cla-net.org/?587\">Lunch at the Library program\u003c/a>, which feeds school-age kids throughout the summer. Library manager Gia Paolini read \u003cem>Farmer Will Allen and the Growing Table\u003c/em> at her branch in Contra Costa County—a community where she says the vast majority of children qualify for free or reduced-price lunches. \"Just as we have to expose kids to as many words as possible, it's important to expose them to concepts, too,\" she says. \"Books about food plant the seed that [healthy] food is important and fun.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee has also organized a book give-away program through Washington State's farmers markets, and is talking to librarians in New York State about collaborating on a literacy program.\" I'm not inventing anything here,\" Lee says. \"I'm just making obvious connections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Others are also beginning to make the connection between the desire of families to learn about food's origins and the need for books about it.

He then quotes a troubling statistic: In low-income neighborhoods where families struggle to get healthy meals on the table, there is one book, on average, \u003ca href=\"http://clifonline.org/resources/research/\">for every 300 children\u003c/a>. \"How do we get books out to them?

My search for a restaurant space in a bustling financial or residential district was coming to a dead end and then I stumbled upon this soon to be vacant diner space in the middle of nowhere…nowhere being one of the last industrial frontiers in the Bay Area. Because of the desolate environment, a dinner operation didn’t make sense. However, I knew that there was a captive audience of artists and small business owners occupying lofts and warehouses in the area. I had to feed them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Having grown up with parents from the South, breakfast has always been an important meal in my book. I think the tradition began hundreds of years ago when my early rising enslaved ancestors ate heartily before a long, hard day of work. Despite our challenging beginnings in this country, I’m proud to be from a heritage of people who knew how to improvise and create something out of nothing. And I feel that’s what I’ve done at Brown Sugar Kitchen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before I opened the restaurant, I was experimenting with a recipe inspired by \u003ca href=\"https://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Yeast-Raised-Waffles\">Marion Cunningham’s yeast risen waffle\u003c/a>. I added some cornmeal and made it more savory than sweet. I thought it would be the perfect foil to \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2018/02/15/celebrity-chef-recipes-brown-sugar-kitchens-acclaimed-buttermilk-fried-chicken/\">fried chicken\u003c/a> as well. Like cornbread, but without the density. I opened the restaurant with one waffle maker as I suspected that the demand for chicken and waffles was a trendy novelty that would soon pass.

My search for a restaurant space in a bustling financial or residential district was coming to a dead end and then I stumbled upon this soon to be vacant diner space in the middle of nowhere…nowhere being one of the last industrial frontiers in the Bay Area. Because of the desolate environment, a dinner operation didn’t make sense. However, I knew that there was a captive audience of artists and small business owners occupying lofts and warehouses in the area. I had to feed them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Having grown up with parents from the South, breakfast has always been an important meal in my book. I think the tradition began hundreds of years ago when my early rising enslaved ancestors ate heartily before a long, hard day of work. Despite our challenging beginnings in this country, I’m proud to be from a heritage of people who knew how to improvise and create something out of nothing. And I feel that’s what I’ve done at Brown Sugar Kitchen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before I opened the restaurant, I was experimenting with a recipe inspired by \u003ca href=\"https://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Yeast-Raised-Waffles\">Marion Cunningham’s yeast risen waffle\u003c/a>. I added some cornmeal and made it more savory than sweet. I thought it would be the perfect foil to \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2018/02/15/celebrity-chef-recipes-brown-sugar-kitchens-acclaimed-buttermilk-fried-chicken/\">fried chicken\u003c/a> as well. Like cornbread, but without the density. I opened the restaurant with one waffle maker as I suspected that the demand for chicken and waffles was a trendy novelty that would soon pass. Well, you know how that turned out! The apple cider syrup nods to my paternal grandmother in Virginia who always served fried apples for breakfast as a side dish to eggs, sausage, potatoes and biscuits. The apple doesn’t fall too far from the tree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_124067\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-124067\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new.jpg\" alt=\"Cornmeal Waffles\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_3439-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cornmeal Waffles \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Cornmeal Waffles With Apple Cider Syrup\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 8-10 waffles, depending on size of waffle iron\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Old-fashioned oatmeal cookies are as comforting as a warm hug. This sweet, chewy cookie recipe, with the added benefit of chocolate chips, is here to hug you.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I love a good oatmeal cookie, especially one that is chewy, slightly crisp on the edges, with a nice balance of sweet and savory. I also find them incredibly versatile, an ideal cookie to personalize to your own tastes. The most obvious addition to a plain oatmeal cookie would be plump, juicy raisins…but I know plenty of folks who won’t even be in the same room with a raisin. For those, I’d throw in some chocolate chips—my favorite embellishment. This recipe is my go-to, and as you can see, I’ve included the chocolate chips. But for the rest of you, if this doesn’t make your heart sing, I offer plenty of variations:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For plain oatmeal cookies,\u003c/strong> leave out the chocolate chips (seems obvious, right?).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For oatmeal-raisin cookies,\u003c/strong> swap out the chocolate chips for 1 cup raisins or dried currants.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For oatmeal-cranberry-white chocolate cookies,\u003c/strong> swap out the chocolate chips for 1 cup white chocolate chips and 1 cup dried cranberries.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For spiced oatmeal cookies,\u003c/strong> omit the chocolate chips and add 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon and 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For oatmeal-chocolate chip-nut cookies,\u003c/strong> add 1/2 to 1 cup toasted chopped walnuts, pecans, or almonds to the dough when adding the chocolate chips.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123623\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new.jpg\" alt=\"Oatmeal-Chocolate Chip Cookies\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123623\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oatmeal-Chocolate Chip Cookies \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Oatmeal-Chocolate Chip Cookies\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 3 1/2 dozen cookies\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at cool room temperature\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2/3 cup granulated sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 tsp kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 large eggs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/2 cups flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp baking soda\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 (12-oz) bag bittersweet chocolate chips\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 375°F.

This sweet, chewy cookie recipe, with the added benefit of chocolate chips, is here to hug you.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I love a good oatmeal cookie, especially one that is chewy, slightly crisp on the edges, with a nice balance of sweet and savory. I also find them incredibly versatile, an ideal cookie to personalize to your own tastes. The most obvious addition to a plain oatmeal cookie would be plump, juicy raisins…but I know plenty of folks who won’t even be in the same room with a raisin. For those, I’d throw in some chocolate chips—my favorite embellishment. This recipe is my go-to, and as you can see, I’ve included the chocolate chips. But for the rest of you, if this doesn’t make your heart sing, I offer plenty of variations:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For plain oatmeal cookies,\u003c/strong> leave out the chocolate chips (seems obvious, right?).\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For oatmeal-raisin cookies,\u003c/strong> swap out the chocolate chips for 1 cup raisins or dried currants.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For oatmeal-cranberry-white chocolate cookies,\u003c/strong> swap out the chocolate chips for 1 cup white chocolate chips and 1 cup dried cranberries.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For spiced oatmeal cookies,\u003c/strong> omit the chocolate chips and add 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon and 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>For oatmeal-chocolate chip-nut cookies,\u003c/strong> add 1/2 to 1 cup toasted chopped walnuts, pecans, or almonds to the dough when adding the chocolate chips.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123623\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new.jpg\" alt=\"Oatmeal-Chocolate Chip Cookies\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123623\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_5552-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Oatmeal-Chocolate Chip Cookies \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Oatmeal-Chocolate Chip Cookies\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 3 1/2 dozen cookies\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at cool room temperature\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2/3 cup granulated sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 tsp kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 large eggs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/2 cups flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp baking soda\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 (12-oz) bag bittersweet chocolate chips\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 375°F.

This surefire recipe has everything you are looking for, delicately crisp on the outside, slightly chewy on the inside.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My Dad, who passed away earlier this year, loved chocolate chip cookies. No holiday, family gathering, or birthday was complete without them. It didn’t really matter which recipe I made, from the Tollhouse version on the back of the chocolate chip bag to some fancy chef-backed recipe I found in a gourmet cookbook, he always loved them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the years, I’ve tried countless recipes, then, based on all those trials and successes and sometimes failures, I came up with a version that I really quite like. These are pretty classic…not cakey, but a little fluffy, somewhat chewy, with a nice lightly crisp exterior. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t tend to sully my chocolate chip cookies with nuts (besides, my husband is allergic and he would be terribly sad if I “ruined” a batch of cookies with nuts) or other embellishments, but hey, if you love nuts by all means add them. Just be sure they are fresh and toasted. About 3/4 cup chopped toasted pecans, walnuts, or almonds should do the trick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As far as I’m concerned, and certainly as far as my Dad was ever concerned, no cookie swap, cookie platter, holiday or celebration is really complete without these in the mix. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cem>Note:\u003c/em>\u003c/strong> \u003cem>If you like, make a double batch, but be sure you have at least a 5 quart mixer.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123689\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new.jpg\" alt=\"Chocolate Chip Cookies \" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123689\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_0534-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chocolate Chip Cookies \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Chocolate Chip Cookies\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 3 dozen cookies\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>2½ cups all-purpose flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1½ tsp baking soda\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 cup unsalted butter, at cool room temperature\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 cup packed golden brown sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>⅔ cup granulated sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 large eggs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tsp vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 (12-oz) bag bittersweet or semisweet chocolate chips\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Position 2 oven racks evenly in the oven.

This surefire recipe has everything you are looking for, delicately crisp on the outside, slightly chewy on the inside.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My Dad, who passed away earlier this year, loved chocolate chip cookies. No holiday, family gathering, or birthday was complete without them. It didn’t really matter which recipe I made, from the Tollhouse version on the back of the chocolate chip bag to some fancy chef-backed recipe I found in a gourmet cookbook, he always loved them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the years, I’ve tried countless recipes, then, based on all those trials and successes and sometimes failures, I came up with a version that I really quite like. These are pretty classic…not cakey, but a little fluffy, somewhat chewy, with a nice lightly crisp exterior. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I don’t tend to sully my chocolate chip cookies with nuts (besides, my husband is allergic and he would be terribly sad if I “ruined” a batch of cookies with nuts) or other embellishments, but hey, if you love nuts by all means add them. Just be sure they are fresh and toasted. About 3/4 cup chopped toasted pecans, walnuts, or almonds should do the trick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As far as I’m concerned, and certainly as far as my Dad was ever concerned, no cookie swap, cookie platter, holiday or celebration is really complete without these in the mix. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>Melt-in-your-mouth butter balls, also known by many other names like Mexican wedding cakes, are a must on your holiday cookie platter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sandies, butter balls, Mexican wedding cakes, Russian tea cakes, snowballs, or pecan balls…whatever you might call them, these powdery white cookies all have something in common: they are buttery and nutty, with a crumbly texture, coated in powdered sugar, and one of the most-loved holiday cookies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And every year, for as long as I remember, my mom has baked them. And her mother--my grandmother--baked them before her, and quite possibly her mother—my great-grandmother—baked them for my grandmother, and so on. Sometimes I bake butterballs along with my mom, sometimes I just make my own batch, and often they find their way onto my sister-in-law’s cookie platter. Honestly, it just wouldn’t be Christmas without them. (Of course, because I don’t eat pecans, we almost always leave them out, or I sometimes swap out the pecans for finely chopped toasted almonds. Walnuts will work too for those of you who like them!)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A simple mixture of butter, flour, powdered sugar, and nuts, plus a little salt and vanilla, is all you need to create these memorable little cakes. But the true beauty of these whatever-you-call-them cookies happens when they are still warm from the oven, and are swathed in a coating of powdered sugar which melts in your mouth with each delicate bite.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This recipe, the original being a handwritten recipe card in my mother’s handwriting, has been passed down through a few generations of women in my family. I’ve no idea where it came from, but it’s been slightly updated throughout the years. I hope you enjoy it for generations to come!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123222\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new.jpg\" alt=\"Mom’s Pecan Butter Balls are ready to serve.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123222\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mom’s Pecan Butter Balls are ready to serve. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Mom’s Pecan Butter Balls\n\u003ch2>\n\u003c/h2>\u003c/h2>\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 22 cookies\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 cup (8 oz) unsalted butter, at cool room temperature\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 cup powdered sugar, sifted\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tsp vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 cups flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 cup (2 oz) chopped toasted pecans (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123262\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new.jpg\" alt=\"Sift 1 cup powdered sugar.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123262\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sift 1 cup powdered sugar. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 300F.

And her mother--my grandmother--baked them before her, and quite possibly her mother—my great-grandmother—baked them for my grandmother, and so on. Sometimes I bake butterballs along with my mom, sometimes I just make my own batch, and often they find their way onto my sister-in-law’s cookie platter. Honestly, it just wouldn’t be Christmas without them. (Of course, because I don’t eat pecans, we almost always leave them out, or I sometimes swap out the pecans for finely chopped toasted almonds. Walnuts will work too for those of you who like them!)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A simple mixture of butter, flour, powdered sugar, and nuts, plus a little salt and vanilla, is all you need to create these memorable little cakes. But the true beauty of these whatever-you-call-them cookies happens when they are still warm from the oven, and are swathed in a coating of powdered sugar which melts in your mouth with each delicate bite.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This recipe, the original being a handwritten recipe card in my mother’s handwriting, has been passed down through a few generations of women in my family. I’ve no idea where it came from, but it’s been slightly updated throughout the years. I hope you enjoy it for generations to come!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123222\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new.jpg\" alt=\"Mom’s Pecan Butter Balls are ready to serve.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123222\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/11/MG_5174-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mom’s Pecan Butter Balls are ready to serve. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Mom’s Pecan Butter Balls\n\u003ch2>\n\u003c/h2>\u003c/h2>\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 22 cookies\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>1 cup (8 oz) unsalted butter, at cool room temperature\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 cup powdered sugar, sifted\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp kosher salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tsp vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 cups flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 cup (2 oz) chopped toasted pecans (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_123262\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new.jpg\" alt=\"Sift 1 cup powdered sugar.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-123262\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/12/MG_4819-new-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sift 1 cup powdered sugar. \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 300F.

She knew about farming, of course, but in her mind there was a disconnect: food just sort of showed up at the grocery store. She worked a corporate job, wearing fancy clothes and heels to work. But she had gotten laid off during the recession, and one day a few years ago, she ended up at a Bay Area nursery with her daughter. They bought a lemon tree, and as it slowly started to flourish, so did Carlisle’s interest in gardening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around the same time the, she found herself reading more and more articles about Oakland, where she spent her childhood: about its status as one of the country’s most dangerous cities, the high rate of teen prostitution and dismal school dropout statistics. She wanted to do something that combined a concrete way to help Oakland’s kids with her newfound love of gardening. So in 2010, she started \u003ca href=\"http://anvfarm.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Acta Non Verba: Youth Urban Farm Project (ANV),\u003c/a> a nonprofit that introduces low-income East Oakland children to the joys of gardening while contributing financially to their future. Local children farm a small plot at \u003ca href=\"http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/opr/s/facility/OAK029397\" target=\"_blank\">Tassafaronga Recreation Center\u003c/a> and sell the produce through farmers markets and a \u003ca href=\"http://anvfarm.org/programs/csa/\" target=\"_blank\">CSA\u003c/a>. All the proceeds go into individual savings accounts for each child, earmarked for their education. There’s also an eight week \u003ca href=\"http://anvfarm.org/programs/camp-anv/\" target=\"_blank\">summer camp\u003c/a>, camping and field trips, and community farm days. Since their founding, they've served over three thousand local kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_115765\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-115765\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/1830661-e1488841685973.jpg\" alt=\"Acta Non Verba has served over 3,000 East Oakland kids since its founding.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Acta Non Verba has served over 3,000 East Oakland kids since its founding. \u003ccite>(Acta Non Verba )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“For generations, our communities have been told that farming is not for us,” Carlisle said. “When we talk to our kids about what a farmer looks like and where farmers live, it’s very abstract. Nobody knows a farmer, it’s all what they’ve seen on TV. There are no 4-H clubs in the flatlands.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The financial aspect of the program was inspired by San Francisco’s \u003ca href=\"http://sfgov.org/ofe/k2c\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco Kindergarten to College Program\u003c/a>, where every kindergartner entering a public school is given a savings account with $50, with incentives for families that regularly contribute. (Research has shown that children are more likely to attend college if there’s money set aside for it).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the money is just part of the way Acta Non Verba (Latin phrase meaning: actions not words) prepares children for the future. Most of the kids Carlisle works with want to be athletes, musicians, actresses--or cops, so they can carry a gun. The program allows them to explore the sprawling agricultural industry, to show them a field and a future that could be theirs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you’re not into getting dirty, not into planting and harvesting, there’s all these other things that you can do,” Carlisle said. “There’s being a soil scientist, being an entomologist, pest management. That, to me, is as important as \u003ca href=\"https://studyinthestates.dhs.gov/2011/09/what-does-stem-stand-for\" target=\"_blank\">STEM\u003c/a>.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_115764\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-115764\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/1830656-e1488841654431.jpg\" alt=\"Acta Non Verba teaches kids about the cultivation and selling of produce.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Acta Non Verba teaches kids about the cultivation and selling of produce. \u003ccite>(Acta Non Verba)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>It hasn’t been easy. Like Carlisle, many of the kids have grown up disconnected to where their food comes from. And in East Oakland, where most kids grow up with acute food insecurity (most \u003ca href=\"http://anvfarm.org/about/mission/\" target=\"_blank\">qualify for reduced lunch\u003c/a>), an emphasis on pesticide-free local produce can seem precious or irrelevant. Once, the garden yielded a bumper crop of collard greens. Carlisle offered some to a woman in the neighborhood. The woman was suspicious, unbelieving that the park’s small garden could actually yield something and that Carlisle had grown it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The greens were safe, Carlisle said. She had farmed them herself. “She’s like ‘Why would you call yourself that? No girl, we’re not farmers, you’re a gardener,’” Carlisle remembered. “I was offended, but it’s something to think about; trying not to sound superior. The farm-to-table movement doesn’t always feel like it applies to folks in my community. But to grow culturally relevant produce like collard greens and mustard greens, the community is starting to come around and see that, like with me, food is grown, it doesn’t just show up at the grocery store miraculously.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_115763\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-115763\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851.jpg\" alt=\"Acta Non Verba founder and executive director Kelly Carlisle.\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-160x160.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-768x768.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-240x240.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-375x375.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-520x520.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-50x50.jpg 50w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-64x64.jpg 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-96x96.jpg 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-128x128.jpg 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Acta Non Verba founder and executive director Kelly Carlisle. \u003ccite>(Acta Non Verba)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>To help share her message, Carlisle involves parents, both as volunteers and paid positions so the children’s healthy eating education is reinforced at home. She also makes it fun: she talks about a local boy named Jordan, who’s always thrilled to share his new knowledge about plant biology, or a pair of sisters whose eyes light up when it’s time to sing camp songs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thing could be easier, Carlisle acknowledges. She’d like to be able to afford more employees. She’d like there to be a grocery store near the farm, a nice one emphasizing healthy options. She’d like to only focus on food issues. But the more time she spends in East Oakland, the more she’s forced to confront other issues, like the area’s high rates of \u003ca href=\"http://www.acphd.org/media/401560/cumulative-health-impacts-east-west-oakland.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">child asthma\u003c/a>, or the \u003ca href=\"http://www.cbecal.org/organizing/northern-california/oakland/#crematorium\" target=\"_blank\">giant crematorium\u003c/a> that’s slated to be built near her farm. But Carlisle, who served in the Navy and whose parents also started their own nonprofit--“Service is probably ingrained in my DNA,” she said--isn’t going to give up anytime soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One thing that we don’t think about in these high tech days is that we’re all here because somebody cultivated and worked with land,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even every single culture has some kind of agriculture going on. For me, farming is not only something that soothes my soul and makes me feel like I’ve accomplished something in a day, it’s also a connection to something bigger than myself, to a community and something innate: trying to improve my community through hard work and cultivation of land.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Local children farm a small plot at \u003ca href=\"http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/opr/s/facility/OAK029397\" target=\"_blank\">Tassafaronga Recreation Center\u003c/a> and sell the produce through farmers markets and a \u003ca href=\"http://anvfarm.org/programs/csa/\" target=\"_blank\">CSA\u003c/a>. All the proceeds go into individual savings accounts for each child, earmarked for their education. There’s also an eight week \u003ca href=\"http://anvfarm.org/programs/camp-anv/\" target=\"_blank\">summer camp\u003c/a>, camping and field trips, and community farm days. Since their founding, they've served over three thousand local kids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_115765\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-115765\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/1830661-e1488841685973.jpg\" alt=\"Acta Non Verba has served over 3,000 East Oakland kids since its founding.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Acta Non Verba has served over 3,000 East Oakland kids since its founding. \u003ccite>(Acta Non Verba )\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“For generations, our communities have been told that farming is not for us,” Carlisle said. “When we talk to our kids about what a farmer looks like and where farmers live, it’s very abstract. Nobody knows a farmer, it’s all what they’ve seen on TV. There are no 4-H clubs in the flatlands.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The financial aspect of the program was inspired by San Francisco’s \u003ca href=\"http://sfgov.org/ofe/k2c\" target=\"_blank\">San Francisco Kindergarten to College Program\u003c/a>, where every kindergartner entering a public school is given a savings account with $50, with incentives for families that regularly contribute. (Research has shown that children are more likely to attend college if there’s money set aside for it).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the money is just part of the way Acta Non Verba (Latin phrase meaning: actions not words) prepares children for the future. Most of the kids Carlisle works with want to be athletes, musicians, actresses--or cops, so they can carry a gun. The program allows them to explore the sprawling agricultural industry, to show them a field and a future that could be theirs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That, to me, is as important as \u003ca href=\"https://studyinthestates.dhs.gov/2011/09/what-does-stem-stand-for\" target=\"_blank\">STEM\u003c/a>.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_115764\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-115764\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/1830656-e1488841654431.jpg\" alt=\"Acta Non Verba teaches kids about the cultivation and selling of produce.\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Acta Non Verba teaches kids about the cultivation and selling of produce. \u003ccite>(Acta Non Verba)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>It hasn’t been easy. Like Carlisle, many of the kids have grown up disconnected to where their food comes from. And in East Oakland, where most kids grow up with acute food insecurity (most \u003ca href=\"http://anvfarm.org/about/mission/\" target=\"_blank\">qualify for reduced lunch\u003c/a>), an emphasis on pesticide-free local produce can seem precious or irrelevant. Once, the garden yielded a bumper crop of collard greens. Carlisle offered some to a woman in the neighborhood. The woman was suspicious, unbelieving that the park’s small garden could actually yield something and that Carlisle had grown it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The greens were safe, Carlisle said. She had farmed them herself. “She’s like ‘Why would you call yourself that? No girl, we’re not farmers, you’re a gardener,’” Carlisle remembered. “I was offended, but it’s something to think about; trying not to sound superior. The farm-to-table movement doesn’t always feel like it applies to folks in my community. But to grow culturally relevant produce like collard greens and mustard greens, the community is starting to come around and see that, like with me, food is grown, it doesn’t just show up at the grocery store miraculously.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_115763\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-115763\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851.jpg\" alt=\"Acta Non Verba founder and executive director Kelly Carlisle.\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-160x160.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-768x768.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-240x240.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-375x375.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-520x520.jpg 520w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-32x32.jpg 32w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-50x50.jpg 50w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-64x64.jpg 64w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-96x96.jpg 96w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-128x128.jpg 128w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2017/03/KellyCarlisle-_MG_1520-e1458614584851-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Acta Non Verba founder and executive director Kelly Carlisle. \u003ccite>(Acta Non Verba)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>To help share her message, Carlisle involves parents, both as volunteers and paid positions so the children’s healthy eating education is reinforced at home.

She’d like to be able to afford more employees. She’d like there to be a grocery store near the farm, a nice one emphasizing healthy options. She’d like to only focus on food issues. But the more time she spends in East Oakland, the more she’s forced to confront other issues, like the area’s high rates of \u003ca href=\"http://www.acphd.org/media/401560/cumulative-health-impacts-east-west-oakland.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">child asthma\u003c/a>, or the \u003ca href=\"http://www.cbecal.org/organizing/northern-california/oakland/#crematorium\" target=\"_blank\">giant crematorium\u003c/a> that’s slated to be built near her farm.

According to a spokesman for the Food and Drug Administration, the agency analyzed fish consumption data from more than 1,000 pregnant women in the U.S. and found that 21 percent of them ate no fish whatsoever in the previous month. And those who did eat fish consumed far less than recommended by the Dietary Guidelines: Some 50 percent ate less than 2 ounces a week and 75 percent ate less than 4 ounces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This week, in the waning days of the Obama administration, the FDA and Environmental Protection Agency issued an \u003ca href=\"http://www.fda.gov/Food/FoodborneIllnessContaminants/Metals/ucm393070.htm\">update to the advice\u003c/a>, listing more than 60 species in a chart that ranks fish as a \"best choice,\" \"good choice\" and \"choices to avoid.\" The goal is to make it easier for moms-to-be to feel confident about the type of seafood they include in their diets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new advice recommends consumers choose a variety of fish to eat. And it comes with an easy-to-understand illustration of what an appropriate portion size should be: 4 ounces for an adult, the full size of your palm; and 2 ounces for children aged 4-7 — which is more like the inside cup of your palm.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And while expectant mothers have long been warned to stay away from shark, King mackerel, swordfish and tilefish from the Gulf of Mexico, now there's three new species on the list of what to avoid: marlin, orange roughy, and bigeye tuna.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, not everyone is thrilled with the new advice.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You can put this in with the Chelsea Manning pardon, it's that controversial,\" says Dr. Tom Brenna, a professor of human nutrition at Cornell University and a member of the government's 2015 Dietary Guideline Committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brenna and other critics say the new advice doesn't always jibe with the agency's own scientific findings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.fda.gov/downloads/Food/FoodborneIllnessContaminants/Metals/UCM396785.pdf\">2014 report from the FDA\u003c/a> looked at the net effects of eating commercial fish during pregnancy on the neurodevelopment of growing babies. The report found it would be safe to eat 61 ounces of halibut a week. (That's about 15 four-ounce servings.) But the new advisory from the FDA suggests that halibut be limited to just once a week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They're completely ignoring their own [2014] report,\" Brenna says. \"It's a terrible, awful message. They've ignored the nutrition science and at best, they're ranking the amount of mercury.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Brenna argues that splitting tuna into three different categories muddles an already complex message even further. Bigeye tuna (often known as ahi) falls on the \"avoid\" list, while albacore and yellowfin are listed as \"good choices,\" and canned light tuna, which includes skipjack, is listed as a \"best choice.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"People won't see there's a difference between the types of tuna, they'll only see that tuna is on the list,\" Brenna says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, others worried the new advice might prompt pregnant women and small kids to eat too much tuna. \"If pregnant women or small kids followed the new advice from the government on mercury and tuna[,] they could easily consume more mercury than is safe for developing brains,\" Lisa Lefferts, a senior scientist with The Center for Science in the Public Interest, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an email to NPR, FDA spokesperson Peter Cassell says it's important to note that this guidance is targeted to certain women and young children. \"We took a cautious and highly protective approach in determining which fish belonged in each category and are comfortable with the limits we are providing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While mercury looms large when we're talking about pregnant women and seafood, it's not the only contaminant of concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new EPA/FDA chart lists both wild striped bass and bluefish as \"good choices,\" meaning one serving a week is OK. But striped bass and bluefish on the East Coast have been known to have high levels of PCBs, which can build up in the fatty tissues of fish and bring health risks to humans, says Tim Fitzgerald of the Environmental Defense Fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's why, to cite one example, depending the fish's size, Maryland's consumption advisory recommends women limit meals of striped bass to as little as\u003ca href=\"http://www.mde.state.md.us/programs/Marylander/CitizensInfoCenterHome/Documents/Fish%20Consumption%20Docs/Maryland_Fish_Advisories_2014_Web_bluecatedit.pdf\"> one serving a month\u003c/a> — far less than the new FDA/EPA advisory recommends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FDA maintains that its final consumption recommendations were based on rigorous scientific analysis. Agency spokesman Cassell says the FDA believes the recommendations will instill confidence, not uncertainty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brenna disagrees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the advice they're giving is not based on the evidence in their own detailed report,\" he says, \"and that it confuses everyone.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.leschin-hoar.com/\">Clare Leschin-Hoar\u003c/a>\u003cem> is a journalist based in San Diego who covers food policy and sustainability issues.\u003c/em> \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cem>Copyright 2017\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\"> NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n",

Bigeye tuna (often known as ahi) falls on the \"avoid\" list, while albacore and yellowfin are listed as \"good choices,\" and canned light tuna, which includes skipjack, is listed as a \"best choice.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"People won't see there's a difference between the types of tuna, they'll only see that tuna is on the list,\" Brenna says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, others worried the new advice might prompt pregnant women and small kids to eat too much tuna. \"If pregnant women or small kids followed the new advice from the government on mercury and tuna[,] they could easily consume more mercury than is safe for developing brains,\" Lisa Lefferts, a senior scientist with The Center for Science in the Public Interest, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an email to NPR, FDA spokesperson Peter Cassell says it's important to note that this guidance is targeted to certain women and young children. \"We took a cautious and highly protective approach in determining which fish belonged in each category and are comfortable with the limits we are providing.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While mercury looms large when we're talking about pregnant women and seafood, it's not the only contaminant of concern.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new EPA/FDA chart lists both wild striped bass and bluefish as \"good choices,\" meaning one serving a week is OK. But striped bass and bluefish on the East Coast have been known to have high levels of PCBs, which can build up in the fatty tissues of fish and bring health risks to humans, says Tim Fitzgerald of the Environmental Defense Fund.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's why, to cite one example, depending the fish's size, Maryland's consumption advisory recommends women limit meals of striped bass to as little as\u003ca href=\"http://www.mde.state.md.us/programs/Marylander/CitizensInfoCenterHome/Documents/Fish%20Consumption%20Docs/Maryland_Fish_Advisories_2014_Web_bluecatedit.pdf\"> one serving a month\u003c/a> — far less than the new FDA/EPA advisory recommends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FDA maintains that its final consumption recommendations were based on rigorous scientific analysis. Agency spokesman Cassell says the FDA believes the recommendations will instill confidence, not uncertainty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brenna disagrees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the advice they're giving is not based on the evidence in their own detailed report,\" he says, \"and that it confuses everyone.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.leschin-hoar.com/\">Clare Leschin-Hoar\u003c/a>\u003cem> is a journalist based in San Diego who covers food policy and sustainability issues.\u003c/em> \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cem>Copyright 2017\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\"> NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>There’s nothing like biting into a real, homemade marshmallow that you’ve made yourself. It’s completely unlike the round white blobs you get at the grocery store. Light and airy as a cloud, these are easier to make than you might think – and they make a great rainy day project. All you need is a stand mixer and a candy thermometer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I make mine with gelatin, although I’ve made other recipes using egg whites. It sounds kinda crazy, that you can whip up gelatin into a fluffy white mass, but it really does work. Just keep the faith and follow the directions, and you will be amazed by the results. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Make sure you prep your pan in advance, because once the mixture is ready, you need to spread it out quickly. The best way to do this is to use an offset spatula (or other thin metal spatula) that you’ve sprayed with a little cooking oil. Once the marshmallow sits for an hour or two to firm up, you can cut it into whatever shapes you like. I love the ghosts for Halloween, but you can do anything: stars, hearts, or if you want the least amount of scraps, squares.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When using a cutter or a knife, use a bit of the powdered sugar mixture to make sure it doesn’t get overly sticky, which makes it hard to cut.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you do use a cutter and have a bunch of scraps, don’t throw them away! Just cut them into smaller odd-shaped pieces and pop them into your hot chocolate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113025\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup.jpg\" alt=\"Homemade Marshmallow Ghosts\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-113025\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Homemade Marshmallow Ghosts \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Homemade Marshmallow Ghosts\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 2 dozen marshmallows (depending on how you cut them)\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong> \n\u003cli>Canola oil spray\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup powdered sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/3 cup cornstarch\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup cold water\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 envelopes unflavored powdered gelatin (1½ tbsp)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/8 tsp fine sea salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/8 tsp cream of tartar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/3 cups granulated sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tbsp light corn syrup\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong> \n\u003cli>Lightly spray a 9-inch square or a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with the cooking spray (for thicker marshmallows use the smaller pan, for thinner use a larger pan).

It’s completely unlike the round white blobs you get at the grocery store. Light and airy as a cloud, these are easier to make than you might think – and they make a great rainy day project. All you need is a stand mixer and a candy thermometer. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I make mine with gelatin, although I’ve made other recipes using egg whites. It sounds kinda crazy, that you can whip up gelatin into a fluffy white mass, but it really does work. Just keep the faith and follow the directions, and you will be amazed by the results. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Make sure you prep your pan in advance, because once the mixture is ready, you need to spread it out quickly. The best way to do this is to use an offset spatula (or other thin metal spatula) that you’ve sprayed with a little cooking oil. Once the marshmallow sits for an hour or two to firm up, you can cut it into whatever shapes you like. I love the ghosts for Halloween, but you can do anything: stars, hearts, or if you want the least amount of scraps, squares.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When using a cutter or a knife, use a bit of the powdered sugar mixture to make sure it doesn’t get overly sticky, which makes it hard to cut.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you do use a cutter and have a bunch of scraps, don’t throw them away! Just cut them into smaller odd-shaped pieces and pop them into your hot chocolate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_113025\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup.jpg\" alt=\"Homemade Marshmallow Ghosts\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-113025\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/ghosts-final-closeup-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Homemade Marshmallow Ghosts \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Homemade Marshmallow Ghosts\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 2 dozen marshmallows (depending on how you cut them)\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong> \n\u003cli>Canola oil spray\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup powdered sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/3 cup cornstarch\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 cup cold water\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 envelopes unflavored powdered gelatin (1½ tbsp)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/8 tsp fine sea salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/8 tsp cream of tartar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/3 cups granulated sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tbsp light corn syrup\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 tsp vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003col>\n\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong> \n\u003cli>Lightly spray a 9-inch square or a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with the cooking spray (for thicker marshmallows use the smaller pan, for thinner use a larger pan).

"content": "\u003cp>Chewy fudgy brownie bites, cut into the shapes of Halloween delights, are the perfect treats for any Halloween get-together. This recipe makes a big sheet of thin chocolate brownies that are sturdy enough to cut into shapes. You can use any shaped cookie cutter you like, but we loved the cute cats, and bats or sugar-dusted ghosts make great cut-outs too. Just be sure you use a cutter that doesn’t have too many thin parts to it, or the brownie might break. This brownie-cookie does best when cut into fatter shapes (which we learned when cutting out the cats!).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it doesn’t end there, you can easily turn these into ice cream sandwiches. Cut out your favorite shapes and freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Spread softened ice cream into a 3/4-inch thick layer in a baking pan. Freeze until hard, then use the same cutter as you used for the brownies to cut the ice cream into shapes. Sandwich the ice cream with the brownie cutouts and freeze again until firm. YUM!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whatever you do, don’t toss the brownie scraps. Just chop them up into smaller pieces and put them in a zippered plastic bag, then freeze them. They are perfect for making brownie sundaes with a scoop of ice cream, some chocolate sauce, and a dollop of whipped cream!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112894\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-112894\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final.jpg\" alt=\"Chewy Chocolate Cut-Out Brownie Cookies\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chewy Chocolate Cut-Out Brownie Cookies\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Chewy Chocolate Cut-Out Brownie Cookies\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 2 dozen (But depends on the size and shape of the cutter\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>3/4 cup unsalted butter\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>8 oz. bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3/4 cup granulated sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>4 large eggs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 teaspoons vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 350°F.

This recipe makes a big sheet of thin chocolate brownies that are sturdy enough to cut into shapes. You can use any shaped cookie cutter you like, but we loved the cute cats, and bats or sugar-dusted ghosts make great cut-outs too. Just be sure you use a cutter that doesn’t have too many thin parts to it, or the brownie might break. This brownie-cookie does best when cut into fatter shapes (which we learned when cutting out the cats!).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it doesn’t end there, you can easily turn these into ice cream sandwiches. Cut out your favorite shapes and freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Spread softened ice cream into a 3/4-inch thick layer in a baking pan. Freeze until hard, then use the same cutter as you used for the brownies to cut the ice cream into shapes. Sandwich the ice cream with the brownie cutouts and freeze again until firm. YUM!\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whatever you do, don’t toss the brownie scraps. Just chop them up into smaller pieces and put them in a zippered plastic bag, then freeze them. They are perfect for making brownie sundaes with a scoop of ice cream, some chocolate sauce, and a dollop of whipped cream!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112894\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-112894\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final.jpg\" alt=\"Chewy Chocolate Cut-Out Brownie Cookies\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/cat-brownies-final-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chewy Chocolate Cut-Out Brownie Cookies\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Chewy Chocolate Cut-Out Brownie Cookies\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes about 2 dozen (But depends on the size and shape of the cutter\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>3/4 cup unsalted butter\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>8 oz. bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3/4 cup granulated sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>4 large eggs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>2 teaspoons vanilla extract\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>1/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>Preheat the oven to 350°F.

"content": "\u003cp>Everything really is better on a stick, and these amped up, sugar-rific pumpkin pops are no exception. They are just so adorable! So if you love a good sugar high, or just want to make your kids (or friends’ kids) really really happy (and watch them zoom around the house), then you need to get on this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kitchen project takes a little bit of prep. You’ll need to seek out some white lollipop sticks, green sour candy bites, and candy melts. I find candy melts kinda gross, but they do the trick really easily, and if you do it right, there is only a thin coating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of candy melts, you can \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2015/10/19/halloween-white-chocolate-dipped-strawberry-ghosts/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">use white chocolate\u003c/a>, but just be super careful not to overheat it when you melt it or it will seize up. I find the best way to melt white chocolate is in a bowl set over gently simmering water rather than in the microwave.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, you’ll want to color the white chocolate orange, so you will have to locate some oil-based or powdered food coloring. You can find it online fairly easily, but it’s not the same as the stuff you buy in the store. Liquid or gel food coloring (which is the stuff you find in the store) is alcohol-based, and will seize up your chocolate if you try to use it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For this project, I used orange candy melts and amped up the color with oil-based orange food/candy coloring. You can decorate the pumpkins any way you like, but I found drawing faces in dark chocolate with a toothpick worked really well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112846\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-112846\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group.jpg\" alt=\"Candy-Dipped Marshmallow Pumpkins\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Candy-Dipped Marshmallow Pumpkins \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Candy-Dipped Marshmallow Pumpkins\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 25 to 30 pumpkin pops\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Parchment or waxed paper\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>25 to 30 lollipop sticks\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>25 to 30 large, store-bought marshmallows\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>12 to 15 green sour candy bites (I used Green Apple Sour Punch Bites), halved crosswise\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>12 oz bag orange candy melts, or 12 oz white chocolate candy melts plus orange oil-based candy coloring\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>About 2 tbsp semisweet chocolate chips or chopped chocolate\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Toothpicks\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Instructions:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003col>\n\u003cli style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n\u003col>\n\u003cli>Line a large baking sheet with parchment or wax paper.

So if you love a good sugar high, or just want to make your kids (or friends’ kids) really really happy (and watch them zoom around the house), then you need to get on this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kitchen project takes a little bit of prep. You’ll need to seek out some white lollipop sticks, green sour candy bites, and candy melts. I find candy melts kinda gross, but they do the trick really easily, and if you do it right, there is only a thin coating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of candy melts, you can \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2015/10/19/halloween-white-chocolate-dipped-strawberry-ghosts/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">use white chocolate\u003c/a>, but just be super careful not to overheat it when you melt it or it will seize up. I find the best way to melt white chocolate is in a bowl set over gently simmering water rather than in the microwave.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, you’ll want to color the white chocolate orange, so you will have to locate some oil-based or powdered food coloring. You can find it online fairly easily, but it’s not the same as the stuff you buy in the store. Liquid or gel food coloring (which is the stuff you find in the store) is alcohol-based, and will seize up your chocolate if you try to use it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For this project, I used orange candy melts and amped up the color with oil-based orange food/candy coloring. You can decorate the pumpkins any way you like, but I found drawing faces in dark chocolate with a toothpick worked really well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_112846\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-112846\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group.jpg\" alt=\"Candy-Dipped Marshmallow Pumpkins\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/24/2016/10/pumpkin-pops-paint-group-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Candy-Dipped Marshmallow Pumpkins \u003ccite>(Wendy Goodfriend)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>Recipe: Candy-Dipped Marshmallow Pumpkins\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Makes 25 to 30 pumpkin pops\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

A transcript of their conversation follows, edited for clarity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>This is a great idea, but I understand it kind of comes from a sad place, right? I mean, essentially because you had a pretty lonely experience at lunchtime.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yeah, I did. At my old school, I was completely ostracized by all of my classmates, and so I had to eat lunch alone every day. When you walk into the lunchroom and you see all the tables of everyone sitting there and you know that going up to them would only end in rejection, you feel extremely alone and extremely isolated, and your stomach drops. And you are searching for a place to eat, but you know that if you sit by yourself, there'll be so much embarrassment that comes with it because people will know and they'll see you as the girl who has nowhere to sit. So there's so many awful feelings that come along with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You eventually changed schools, and you did make friends in this new school. But it sounds like you couldn't shake that feeling, right, that experience.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, I felt that if I was thriving in a new school but didn't do anything about the people who feel like this every single day, then I'm just as bad as the people who watched me eat alone. I felt like, with my story, it was my job to stand up and do something about all the kids who feel like this every day. And I wanted to create something that would address bullying, but in a positive way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So you get this idea for an app, and how did you want it to work?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The way that it works is it's a free lunch-planning app where kids can find lunch tables if they feel like they have nowhere to go. Pretty much, kids can sign up as ambassadors for a Sit With Us club and agree to post open lunches so that anyone who has the app and has nowhere to go can find a table and, hopefully, make some new friends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Now, it seems like the kind of kid who would do that would be the kind of person you could walk up to and say, \"Hey, can I sit with you?\" So why have an app? Why not the low-tech version, which is just ask to sit down?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because the way it was at my old school, I tried many times to reach out to someone, but I was rejected many times. And you feel like you're labeling yourself as an outcast when you ask to join a table with someone you don't know. This way, it's very private. It's through the phone. No one else has to know. And you know that you're not going to be rejected once you get to the table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So your app launched [last] week. Have you had a chance to see the app in action just yet?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, the results have been very, very positive. I had my first club meeting the other day, and everyone was very excited. And people are already posting open lunches at my school. So I'm very excited that things are already kicking off with a great start. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cem>Copyright 2016 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n",

I mean, essentially because you had a pretty lonely experience at lunchtime.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yeah, I did. At my old school, I was completely ostracized by all of my classmates, and so I had to eat lunch alone every day. When you walk into the lunchroom and you see all the tables of everyone sitting there and you know that going up to them would only end in rejection, you feel extremely alone and extremely isolated, and your stomach drops. And you are searching for a place to eat, but you know that if you sit by yourself, there'll be so much embarrassment that comes with it because people will know and they'll see you as the girl who has nowhere to sit. So there's so many awful feelings that come along with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But it sounds like you couldn't shake that feeling, right, that experience.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Well, I felt that if I was thriving in a new school but didn't do anything about the people who feel like this every single day, then I'm just as bad as the people who watched me eat alone. I felt like, with my story, it was my job to stand up and do something about all the kids who feel like this every day. And I wanted to create something that would address bullying, but in a positive way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So you get this idea for an app, and how did you want it to work?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The way that it works is it's a free lunch-planning app where kids can find lunch tables if they feel like they have nowhere to go. Pretty much, kids can sign up as ambassadors for a Sit With Us club and agree to post open lunches so that anyone who has the app and has nowhere to go can find a table and, hopefully, make some new friends.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Now, it seems like the kind of kid who would do that would be the kind of person you could walk up to and say, \"Hey, can I sit with you?\" So why have an app? Why not the low-tech version, which is just ask to sit down?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because the way it was at my old school, I tried many times to reach out to someone, but I was rejected many times. And you feel like you're labeling yourself as an outcast when you ask to join a table with someone you don't know. This way, it's very private. It's through the phone. No one else has to know. And you know that you're not going to be rejected once you get to the table.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So your app launched [last] week. Have you had a chance to see the app in action just yet?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, the results have been very, very positive. I had my first club meeting the other day, and everyone was very excited. And people are already posting open lunches at my school. So I'm very excited that things are already kicking off with a great start. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003cem>Copyright 2016 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
