Village Chat for Nov. 15, 2020
Brittany Kunde sent us this photo in September. She wrote: “Standing in the kitchen cooking dinner and looked over at my hubby and literally laughed out loud! Can't get more Kenwood than this pic or at least I don't think so, LOL.” I agree.

Brittany just wanted to share it with us, “hoping, to bring some laughter during these crazy times.” And that was two weeks before the Glass Fire. Jason is a volunteer with the Kenwood Fire Dept., and he was out there on the lines, so thank you, Jason, and thanks, everyone at KFD!

The Headless Horseman (Carlos) went trick-or-treating with a skeleton (Drake) and their mom, Lauren Benward Krause at Beltane Ranch and surrounding properties.
First they went to Grandma Alexa Wood's house for spider brittle with a maggot larva glaze, then to the Delaneys for double worm-infested brownies, then to the Atwood Ranch, and then back home to Beltane.
Heidi said that when she commented that it was getting late, Headless replied, “You try saddling a horse with my condition and my brother was too weak to help.” Pretty darn cute!
CHOP’s teens learned to make these raviolis (virtually) from chef Steve Rose.
They're collecting all the recipes from the classes and pictures from the teens in the hopes of creating a Chop's cook book as a fundraiser. Buon appetito!
Congratulations to Kenwood's Inga Aksamit, backpacking instructor and author. Her book, The Hungry Spork: A Long Distance Hiker's Guide to Meal Planning, won first place from the Outdoor Writers Association of California for Excellence in Craft in the Best Outdoor Guidebook category. Check it out on Amazon.
As D-Day approaches, the final deadline for Alec and me as owners of this publication (Dec. 11 for the Dec. 15th issue), I want to thank all my readers over the past 26 years for sending in your stories and pictures. Writing Village Chat is hands-down the easiest and most fun assignment in the entire paper.
But don't despair! I'm turning this column over to some very capable hands. Starting in 2021, Village Chat will be a collaborative effort headed up by the super-capable Robin Stoecker, along with help from Regina Roland and Bridget Paul. Between the three of them they should be able to round up all kinds of interesting news. Thanks, ladies, for stepping up to the plate!
In the meantime, you can send in your items for Village Chat to ann@kenwoodpress.com, or call 833-5155 and chat me up! - AQP
