    whats inside

    eet Aprils Cover Artist, Maria Sharylen.

    Maria Sharylens Gold Canyon studio is a feast for the senses! There you will find bold, vivid paintings that come alive before your eyes, powerful images that illustrate the people of the world on life-size canvas-es which surround the viewer. Traditional, old world depictions of children playing and mothers grinding corn into maize on stone pestles, taking their wares to the Mercados to help support their families. A simple story that will forever live on Sharylens brilliant canvases.

    Sharylens celebrated paintings have been exhibited in numerous museum exhibi-tions and held in prestigious collections worldwide. She was the founder and President of the National Academy of Women Artists (retired), founder and President of the distinguished fine art orga-nization The Other Side of the West, and has been featured in numerous fine art publications nationwide.

    When I discovered the Southwest many years ago, says Sharylen, I knew immediately I would dedicate my work to its depiction. It is such a blessing to do what I love and to be successful within this diverse, inspiring environment.

    On the cover, Maria presents Homage. You may reach Maria at 480-474-2229, e-mail; [email protected], or visit www.SharylenStudio.com.

    Turn Your Patio/Pool AreaTurn Your Patio/Pool AreaTurn Your Patio/Pool Area

    Into An OasisWe've been waiting for this weather..... it's time for outdoor entertaining with friends and family. Why not "spruce up" that outdoor area. Now is the perfect time to install a decorative concrete coating....maybe agstone, mexican tile or acid stain for that rustic southwest or old world look. A clean and seal of your pool deck will get it in shape. Whether xing up for your enjoyment or for re-sale of your home, decorative concrete coatings enhance the overall look and feel of your home.

    Do You Need Plumbing Help? Get it Done Right

    the First Time!

    am sure that in every artists life there is a moment when something magical happens and the brush seems to take on a life of its own and what began as one thing is suddenly transformed into another...a meta-morphosis emerges right before your eyes. Im always astounded when this occurs.

    That is what happened with Homage the cover painting presented here, What began as an addition to my Women of the Vineyard series of paintings became my

    gift to the memory of my mother, my grandmothers and all those who came before them. The lovely, strong figures are appropriately set in the vineyard where the vines are planted and lovingly nurtured and protected to produce and celebrate the finest wines.

    My Mom was always my best friend, my strongest critique, my biggest fan. I always knew when the canvas stayed bare and the brushes were dry, I could rely on her for inspiration and encouragement. Now its my turn to do

    the same for my children and grandchildren as well know-ing full well that hers are very hard shoes to fill. I take on this role with a goodly portion of trepidation always trying to remember all the wisdom and love she instilled in me.

    Mothers Day has always held a special place in my heart for its a day to take a moment to reflect and remember all that these precious women meant to me. Homage is now hanging on my living room wall. Im happy Ive decided to keep it in the family as a memorial to them.

    famliy features get your grill on!

    ackyard chefs, get ready to fire up the grills and cook up some flavor. Whether youre cook-ing just for the family or for all the neighbors, make sure youve got plenty of great recipes and grilling know-how. These recipes have a little extra yum thanks to all natural Accent Flavor Enhancer, which boosts your ingredients already-delicious taste and has 60% less sodium than salt. For more grilling recipes, visit www.accentspices.com.

    Grilled SalmonServes 6 81 6-ounce salmon fillet per person2 tablespoons Accent Flavor Enhancer2 tablespoons paprika2 tablespoons cayenne pepper (or to taste)1 tablespoon fresh ground black peppercorns2 cloves of garlic, crushed3 tablespoons onion flakes2 tablespoons dried oreganoOil

    Mix all dry ingredients together with a mortar and pestle until powdery. Rub all over salmon fillets on both sides and leave for 1 to 2 hours. Heat a ridged grill pan, chargrill or BBQ until hot. Spread some oil over the salmon fillets and place on the grill. Cook for 5 minutes. Turn over and cook until done. Test by poking a knife into the center of fillet and look inside; the fish should flake easily. Serve with a mixed pasta salad.

    Smokey Steak KabobsServes 62 tablespoons Wrights Natural Hickory Seasoning1/2 teaspoon Accent Flavor Enhancer1 cup coffee1/2 cup chopped onion1/3 cup oil2 pounds steak (rib-eye or sirloin) cut into1-inch cubes1 large green pepper, cut into chunks1/2 pound fresh mushroomsCherry tomatoes

    In a bowl, combine hickory seasoning, flavor enhancer, coffee, onion and oil. Add steak cubes and stir occasion-ally. Marinate 45 minutes. Drain. Using long skewers, al-ternate steak cubes, green pepper chunks, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes. Place skewers on grill over hot coals. Grill 6 minutes, turn and grill additional 4 to 6 minutes.

    Cajun BurgersMakes 4 hamburgers1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef1/2 cup finely chopped red orgreen bell pepper4 teaspoons Red DevilTMCayenne Pepper Sauce2 teaspoons Worcestershiresauce1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves,crushed (optional)1/2 teaspoon Accent FlavorEnhancer1/2 teaspoon salt

    In large bowl, combine all ingredients; shape into 4 patties. Grill or broil until beef is no longer pink. Serve, if desired, on hamburger buns and top with shredded lettuce and cheddar cheese.

    Grilling Tips Let meat rest for several minutes before slicing or

    serving. This lets the juices redistribute throughout the meat, which keeps it nice and juicy.

    Slice flank steak diagonally across the grain, otherwise it will be too tough.

    Know your ribs. Pork spare ribs come from the outer edge and tend to be leaner. Baby back ribs are shorter and are cut from the back. Country style ribs come from the shoulder area and are meatier than the other cuts.

    When buying shrimp for grilling, make sure you get at least jumbo sized (12 to 15 per pound), or colossal (about 10 per pound). If theyre much smaller, they will be harder to handle and will cook more quickly than the other ingredients on the skewer.

    Memphis-Style BBQ SauceMakes about 2 cups1 tablespoon butter1/4 cup finely chopped onion1 1/2 cups ketchup1/4 cup chili sauce4 tablespoons brown sugar4 tablespoons Grandmas Molasses2 tablespoons yellow mustard1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce1 tablespoon Wrights Liquid Smoke1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or granulated garlic1/2 teaspoon salt1/2 teaspoon Ortega Chile Seasoning MixDash cayenne pepperSaut onion in butter until soft. Add remaining ingredients.Simmer about 15 minutes. Adjust seasonings to taste.

    BBQ RibsServes 6 84 slabs (about 10 pounds) pork spareribsDry Rub:2 tablespoons kosher salt2 tablespoons black pepper2 tablespoons onion powder2 tablespoons garlic powderRub on both sides of ribs and refrigerate 2 to 4 hours, or overnight. Heat oven to 250F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Add 2 cups water to baking sheet. Place ribs on rack on baking sheet. Bake 4 hours or until very tender, adding water to pan as needed. While ribs are baking, make BBQ sauce. Preheat grill to medium. Place ribs on grill and baste with sauce, turning frequently, for 15 to 20 minutes.

    Get YouR GRILL on!

    The secret to this sauce is Grandmas Molasses

    it adds extra zest to the juicy ribs.

    pring has sprung! Trees are blooming, birds are singing and this hopefully brings you to a place of greater motivation. Motivation that this is a new day! And what better way to start a new day than to rid your-self of the unwanted junk in your life? I for one know that when my house is not in order, it is reflective of my state of mind. I think the show Hoarders does a great job at depicting this very thing. Spring is a great time to declare war on the clutter in our homes! Here are a few tips to guide you through this process.

    There are so many effective methods to ridding yourself of the clutter in your home. You have to find what works best for you. Celebrate even your small accomplish-ments during this process! Even the smallest of accom-plishments call for celebration, this will keep you going! Here is to the clutter free future that is awaiting you!

    By Sarah Navares

    Declare War! On ClutterUse Space Creatively! Walls and ceilings are very rarely treated as a means for storage, when in reality they can be a great and also an attractive place for certain things taking up space in your home. Meanwhile, hidden nooks and crannies can be used to hide less appealing items in your home. You can also get creative with things so that they better fit their designated areas, rolled tow-els might fit more snugly than a stack. A collection of photos competing for space on an office desk might be better suited for the bare spots on your walls. Thinking outside of the box can go a long way in developing a more functional space!

    Go at your own pace! You will be amazed at how much you can accomplish in ten minutes. Every day take five minutes to straighten up and another five minutes to focus on cleaning out the clut-ter in a drawer or on a shelf or flat space, and you will find your house to always be in order. Think about it -- if you do this five days out of every week, youll have purged 260 small areas in your home at the end of a year! Dont become obsessed with getting rid of ALL your clutter now, set a pace that works best for you, and know that little by little you are making your way to a clutter free space.

    Create a system! There is a reason you look around and see the stacks of papers, old maga-zines, and laundry baskets full of clothes you havent touched in a year. Once youve purged your space of unwanted junk, you can more easily focus on up keeping the clutter free space you have successfully created. What you will need is a regular system for keeping things functional. Youll never get to per-fect, but if you think more intelligently about how your house got cluttered, per-haps you can find ways to stop it from happening again.

    Toss Obvious Junk! Take a little walk around your house with a trash bag in tow and get rid of anything that has expired such as food, medicines, coupons, make- up that has exceeded the one year mark, and any-thing that is broken. Tackle these items the night before your trash is picked up, that way you wont be tempted to retrieve them. Also if you find any-thing in your closet you havent touched in a year, thats a good sign that its time is up. Put these items in a bag for Good Will and you can be sure you will be blessing someone less fortunate!

    Using Intelligence with Your Feelings

    emotional Intelligence has been brought up before in this column and lately, Ive received a number of inquiries related to eQ, because the concept applies to many types of relationships. It even includes the relationship we have with ourselves.

    this concept was first introduced in the 1920s as social intelligence. According to the founders of the term, Peter salovy and John D Mayer, eQ involves the ability to monitor ones own and others emotions, to discriminate among them, and to use the information to guide ones thinking and actions.

    there is copious discussion on how to use eQ for interpersonal relationships - our connection with others.

    But how can eQ apply in our intrapersonal rela-tionship with ourselves?

    First, it can help us become aware of what it is that we are feeling as it happens. Its part of responding vs. reacting. Feel the feeling and dont forget to breathe!

    then whether its justified or not, its valid, so become very clear on what you are feeling; its when you become the observer. this is new to many people so just do it over and over again and it becomes a natural response.

    next is to manage the emotions. Continuing as the observer, realize what is behind that feeling, and exam-ine options and ways to handle those emotions of fear, anxiety, sadness and/or anger.

    the next step is key; you then create a plan to chan-nel the energy of those emotions into the service of a goal. using your emotions productively help you have more emotional self control, including stifling impulsive behavior and delaying the gratification in a reaction.

    so this is an effective and rewarding process that also validates your emotions and what you experience.

    example: Fred approaches sally on a social group hiking event. she and Fred have become friendly and she has become interested in him romantically. As Fred has done recently, he apologizes for not calling her again on the phone last night, as he said he would. He explains that he will be too busy to call for a few days and he is going to go talk to some friends and will see her later.

    sally has some options; she chooses the eQ response. First, after Fred walks away, she sits and experiences how that exchange has made her feel. she notices that she is breathing shallow breaths and consciously returns herself to normal, deeper breath-ing. she realizes that she is somewhat angry and sad, as she feels disappointed and let down.

    she validates herself; it does feel like a blow when someone you are interested in doesnt connect with you when they say they will, and then treats you like you are unimportant to them.

    But being clear on this, she gets to make her own decision. she decides that she is done putting her-self in that position with Fred and that he will only be one of the hiking buddies to her from now on. Also, she will watch for similar behavior from anyone else she becomes interested in and decides to let them know early on that its not ok in a calm and friendly way. she makes it a goal to establish and maintain those healthy boundaries.

    eQ can give you more control over your situations. It can help you to put less expectation on others so you experience less disappointment. You can have better understanding of what has put you in the emotional state you are in, which helps you manage your emotions for a more productive outcome from now on.

    gold canyon community church amazing grace

    we all need something from God that only God can give! We try to find the thing that only God can give in other places, to no avail. Whether it be satisfac-tion, fulfillment, joy, peace, etc only God can give us the deepest desires of our hearts. We try with all our might to gain what we need without Gods intrusion, but we must admit we fall short. Ultimately, all of us need something that only God can give. What if I were to tell you that your needs will only get met through something we call amazing grace?

    For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. 12 It teaches us to say No to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, 13 while we wait for the blessed hopethe appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ (Titus 2:11-13)

    What is grace? We can answer that by first stating what it is NOT! Grace does not mean your sin doesnt matter. Your sin does matter. It cost Jesus His life. Your sin cut you off from God. Your sin makes you dirty and unholy. Your sin made you turn your back on God. Your sin does matter. The fact that Jesus moved and died for your sin just shows us how much more amazing grace is, but it does not take away from the awfulness of your sin. Your sin does matter.

    What then is grace? It is more than just going to Heaven when you die. Gods free gift of grace received by you through faith means you get Heaven after you die, but it means more than that. Grace, according to Titus and other passages, helps us for the here and now. Grace

    teaches us. Grace helps us live apart from sin and enables us to look more and more like God the Son. Grace gives us the courage to face the reality of our sins, heal in spite of them and be forgiven of them.

    Since the grace of God helps us in the here and now, it shows me that I dont have to be afraid of what is really going on inside of me. Because grace is a gift it means that I can never earn it (it is a gift) and I do not deserve it (because it is a gift). Since Jesus gave me this gift while we were still sinners, I can be me when approaching the throne of Grace. God will give me what I so desperately need for my sins, worries, problems and I dont have to hide them, or pretend that I am better than I truly am. I can come the way I am, and grace helps me to not stay that way!

    God gives grace that gives courage. Grace does not make you soft, as if your sins, problems and worries dont matter, they do matter, but to clarify: grace is NOT the mattress at the bottom of a cliff that softens your fall. Grace doesnt mean that life is easy and you wont have pain. That

    is not grace. If you commit a crime, or betray a relationship or rob or hurt or harm someone grace doesnt mean you wont have to pay for your deeds. Grace is not the mattress that makes sure you have no consequences for your sin because if you do certain things: youre going to jail and you may lose your spouse and your kids may not want to talk to you grace, though helps you face all of that. Grace helps you to recognize that your identity can be recovered and restored. But it does not take away the consequences.

    Lets say you stole from your employer: grace will hug you, love you, help you and strengthen you to walk through the ordeal. But youre still fired! That is how the grace of God can help us in the here and now. We can say NO to things before they come. Grace can help us do the work needed to heal for the stuff we already did. This grace has appeared to all humankind. But only a few recognize it, believe it and accept it. Be one of the few that takes from God what only God can give and daily be amazed by His grace, and changed by it!

    Doctors Choice Assisted LivingDoctors Choice Assisted Living is a new concept in assisted living. Our mission is to provide excellent quality assisted living care in an open and warm setting. Our vision is to provide care from the perspective of health care providers with years of experience in geriatrics and who have intimate knowledge of the special needs of seniors.

    Youre in Good HandsDoctors Choice Assisted Living was co-founded by Rachelle Haviland, RN and her husband Ramesh Ramaswamy, MD. Dr. Ramaswamy is a board-certified general internist. He has served as a medical director for Hospice of the Valley and is the current medical director for Banner Home Care. His busy medical practice will be moving to the Doctors Choice campus. Rachelle Haviland, RN, BS, a nurse with 14 years of clinical experience in virtually every health care setting, currently manages his office as well as the assisted living.

    Services and CareDoctors Choice Assisted Living is a fully licensed and accredited assisted living center. We provide traditional services such as laundry, cleaning, meals, and activities. What sets us apart is our superior service in the areas of assessing health status, medication monitoring and triaging and managing medical urgencies.

    Doctors Choice DifferenceWe know the navigating the healthcare system can be challenging. We will be there to serve as strong advocates and as a resource for our resident. Imagine having an RN and MD available to assist you or your loved one should the need arise.

    After caring for people in the hospital and in our office over the years, we realized there is a real need in the community for a system for seniors in assisted living to have better access to their doctors and better coordination of their care. Doctors Choice Assisted Living allows Dr. Ramaswamy and Rachelle Haviland, RN the ability to be directly involved with the residents in a new and exciting way, and to ensure the highest possible quality and s
