DLD SATISFIED CUSTOMERKaren Chesney, is a homeowner and member of the lake committee on a five acre lake in Loomis.

“Living next to a lake was one of the driving reasons for purchasing our property -- it is serene and beautiful. But with that, there are challenges to keeping the lake pristine. That’s why we need the expertise and management of DLD Service. Due to the warm weather and lack of rain, the last three years have been difficult. Dana Andrews, President of DLD, brought a fresh progressive and plan to us. They have a long-term vision that aims to reduce chemical use, install aeration, and improve the overall aquatic environment so we may enjoy the lake for many years to come!”

The Tigercat is a new tool for lake and pond owners. Equipped with a side mounted cutter, a loader, and a harvester belt, Tigercat gives us the ability to cut and remove heaver weed growth under the water (down to 5ft) near the shore and up on the shore, cattails, shore weeds up to 3ft and blackberries. We can scoop up weeds, rip them out and load them on shore or onto our conveyor belt into a waiting trailer to be hauled off. Tigercat allows us to mix a good mechanical solution with reduced chemical use, or for customers that cannot use herbicides Tigercat will provide weed load reduction, which reduces parasitic water loss to large plants in your pond. For customers with expensive landscape, grass and structures you finally have a service solution without the major cost of grounds repair. For people with the red plant (azolla) we can remove it quickly into a trailer, no more dumping for you to handle.

one of the things I love most about living in Lincoln is how there is a true sense of community. To me, a community is one where

citizens, business and local government all work to create a better place to live. There are two business owners in town who have especially taken this to heart. Maribel Perez of Keller Williams Realty and Manuel To-bias of Tobias Mortgage opened their office in Gateway Plaza one year ago, and have enjoyed embracing various organizations in town.

Perez’s reasons for wanting to get so involved in the community is simply that they "want to give back to the community that has em-braced our business here in town and that is providing for our families. It’s important to give back to the very people that help keep your doors open. We believe that we need to give back and bless those that are blessing us."

"Having a good relationship with the community is essential for any business to succeed. Most importantly, it gives me a sense of fulfillment," Tobias said.

When asked what organizations they've sponsored, Perez stated, "We have sponsored different organizations and events. This past fall and winter: The Lincoln High School Zebras Varsity Football Team and the

Lincoln Theatre Company. Most recently we did a sponsorship for the Chocolate Ball; which has become ‘the’ event of the year, held by the Downtown Lincoln Association. Also, coming up we will be sponsoring Lincoln Clay Day on Saturday, April 30 held by the Art League of Lincoln and Lincoln Area Archives."

"We have helped other organizations on a smaller scale, such as the Rotary Club’s Night at the Races, Kiwanis’ Charity Casino Night, Child Advocates of Placer County’s A Night in Monte Carlo and the two middle school’s School Aptitude App, " Tobias added.

Although their business is in Gateway Plaza, Perez and Tobias are never strangers anywhere in Lincoln. Whether they're attend-ing an event for one of the various organizations they sponsor or are doing things with other businesses in the downtown area, they are certainly familiar faces in our town. One thing is safe to say, they make friends wherever they go, and enjoy every minute of it. Tobias' excitement when talking about attending some of the events for their beneficiaries is contagious.

"I really enjoyed attending the football games. The team did great! I also enjoyed the Annie production of the Lincoln Theatre Company. I had no idea how talented these kids were. I was blown away!" he said.

In today's world where too many people are just "looking out for No. 1," it's such a pleasure to see the values that Perez and Tobias exhibit, and to know two people who try to live each day by looking for ways they can help others.

With all the wonderful community things they've been able to be a part of in the first year of running their business in Lincoln, I asked them what was one of the most rewarding things they've experienced with their community involvement.

Without hesitation, Perez exclaimed, "We absolutely LOVED the Annie production. It was amazing! Knowing that we have made a contribution that in some way provided the Lincoln The-atre Company some support in order to serve these awesome kids, is very gratifying."

Perez and Tobias would like to encourage other citizens and business members in Lincoln to find ways to give back to the community.

"If we gave back just a little, we can make this community even better than it already is. Help anyway you can … it’s extremely rewarding," proclaimed Tobias.

"It is very rewarding! I invite citizens and businesses to give back to our wonderful community because in giving we end up receiving more than we give, and I am not referring to something monetary. The warm feeling I feel in my heart when I see I am able to put a smile on someone's face, puts a smile on my heart and that is priceless," added Perez.

Knowing how much these two love being a part of this com-munity, I asked them where they saw themselves in 10 years.

"I would like to be involved on a larger scale. If we can some-how use our businesses to really help, it would be great. I would love to work with the city to increase homeownership, wheth-er it’s through offering down payment assistance programs or specialty financing. Something along those lines," Tobias said.

When I asked them what someone does who wants to give back, but may not have the financial means to sponsor groups as Perez and Tobias have, they responded, "There are many ways to give back to an organization or to the community. Giving of one's time is invaluable! We can't say we do that too much because we are busy running our businesses and when we are not doing that we are spending time with our families. However, if someone feels in their heart the desire to give back, I encourage them to reach out to an organization that tugs at their heart. Organizations are always looking for volunteers, and of course donations."

Now that they're approaching the first anniversary of opening their business in Lincoln, I was curious as to how things may have differed, or met, their expectations from their plans that they had this time last year.

"It's our first year together at this office however, we have been working together for several years. It's been a very gratifying year in many aspects and I can honestly tell you that I have felt many times the

undeniable confirmation that I have the right business partner and that's a wonderful feeling," expressed Perez.

Lincoln has a very special community, and those of us who live here know just how remarkable it is.

Tobias commented about their first year in town and explained, "Honestly, I had absolutely no idea how tight-knit this communi-ty really is. Residents and business owners alike. People are proud to be here, and it’s a contagious feeling. I can definitely say that my expectations have been exceeded. I’m glad to be here and look forward to many more years."

Whether you meet with them because of a business transaction, or you encounter them via one of the many ways they support the community, you would be hard-pressed to find two nicer people.

"We are caring individuals and we will always put the client's needs ahead of our own. We have almost 30 years of combined ex-perience, we have a great track record of successful transactions and we always strive for client satisfaction. The constant referrals from our clients is what keeps us busy and in business; without success-ful closings and happy clients, the referrals wouldn't happen."

Although they've been able to work with various groups in town during their first year in Lincoln, it's their goal to do even more.

"Our goal is to have a relationship with 12 local organizations. One for each month of the year. We want to be able to consistent-

ly, month after month, give back to a different local organization. We still don't have all 12 yet, therefore we are still considering other organizations," they said.

If you'd like your organization to be considered to be a partner with Perez and Tobias, "it's as simple as reaching out via email, phone or simply stop by," stated Tobias.

The office address is 110 Gateway Drive, 130. Or contact them via email at [email protected] and [email protected].

These two generous people don't do what they do for the accolades, but because of the good feeling they get, and having the knowledge that it helps the community. However, the apprecia-tion they do receive from everyone is something that makes their efforts even that much more rewarding.

"Everyone has been so appreciative. I’ll never get tired of the team plaques and the letters of appreciation. I keep them all," Tobias said.

Knowing that I live in a town like Lincoln, where so many of its citizens and business owners try to find ways to make this a better place to live, makes me think that I can't imagine living anywhere else.

It appears that Perez and Tobias feel the same way because they stated, "We are here to stay, we are committed to our clients, our businesses and to our community!" ❖

Elegant, delectable dining Sun City’s Meridians restaurant pleases palates

w hen it comes to dining options in the Orchard Creek Lodge, at Sun City Lincoln Hills, Meridians Restau-

rant offers culinary excellence within the active adult communi-ty. The atmosphere is elegant with breathtaking golf course and waterfall views, and best of all, it’s open to the public.

Located adjacent to the Lincoln Hills golf club house, Me-ridians restaurant has been open for 17 years.

Meridians is home to Chef Roderick Williams, a restau-rateur who previously owned two other establishments. With his vast knowledge in the culinary industry, Williams accom-modates various diners experience with his zest for flavors. He changes the menu every three months to please taste buds and to cook within the season.

Williams and all the culinary staff take into consideration specific dietary needs of patrons including diners who might be allergic to gluten or are vegetarian. Popular dishes like, chicken picatta are highlighted on the menu, and can be recreated to meet gluten-free needs.

Meridians manager Kristy Woodin said that the staff goes through specific training to help them recognize what options might be best for patron’s dietary needs.

Presentation is equally as important as how the meal tastes. Williams encourages his staff ’s creativity when constructing the menu and plating design. Salads like the Shrimp Louis have a natural flow of vibrant colors that compliment the heaping amount of shrimp laid on top, and the perfectly stacked, freshly dipped, cod fish and chips invites everyone to dig in.

Meridians is the perfect gathering place to meet with friends after a round golf, or a birthday brunch gathering at the weekly Sunday grand buffet, or maybe even a decadent night for dinner.

For the past five years Meridians menu featured prime rib

nights on Wednesdays. It continues to be the restau-rants most popular night of the week.

“We get completely booked, and walk-ins are some-what hard to accommodate, but we do our best to make things happen,” Woodin said.

For $16.95, the prime rib dinner comes with a slice of choice-cut meat perfectly seasoned and roasted with a baked potato and vegetables. Each week, patrons pack the eatery for the succulent prime rib and they typically sell out. Prime rib leftovers are hard to come by at Me-ridians and when available, diners can enjoy a prime rib sandwich during lunch on Thursdays.

Williams and Woodin work as a team with local wineries and breweries to co-create a trending farm-to-fork experience. Williams samples varieties of wine or beer makers, and creates a complimenting menu that enhances the flavors of both the meal and accompanying beverage. Woodin said that attendees get an education while tasting and paring meals from wineries like Secret Ravine Winery and Wise Villa Winery.

With Easter just around the corner on March 27, Meridians will play host to 1,000 people ready to dine on the lavish Grand Buffet. The delectable spread of 70 gratifying dishes includes garden-fresh gourmet salads, prime-cut meats and seafoods and irresistible desserts made especially for the entire family. This is a pre-pur-

chase event only and Woodin said that they sell out every year.Meridians is considered a local hotspot when it comes to night

entertainment. Tuesday nights are made for dancing at Meridians as the room is transformed into a nightclub with a dance floor where people jive to a live band or disc jockey music. Friday and Saturday nights, diners are serenaded with live piano music by Roman Spinale.

Meridians Main Bar and Meridians Sports Bar offer a variety of spirits to enjoy, from local wineries and breweries, to lavish cocktails.

Woodin said that the Summer Concert series in the amphithe-ater will be loaded with great entertainment starting in just a few months. She added they host one to two weddings per week in the summer months, and that Chef Williams creates a distinctive menu plan that compliments the event atmosphere. ❖

Featured Business... Law Offices of Mark Breunig

Mark is an experienced attorney and business person who primarily focuses on helping families create, manage, and administer

estate plans. His goal is to make sure people understand the law, help them make informed choices, and develop a plan that meets their needs. When asked how he got into estate planning, Mark responded, “I was drawn to estate planning first through my friends and family, then began helping others through

the maze of laws and documents needed to effectively manage one’s estate. Helping families through the process and being there for them as they age is the most meaningful thing I have done as a lawyer and a person.” As part of the estate planning and update process, Mark always meets with clients on a complimentary basis to make sure he understands their needs. “I like to get to know my clients and their situation, and provide them with a firm idea of what it will cost before moving forward. I want to take the fear of high costs off the table before starting on any legal project.”

Mark’s office is located at 570 Fifth Street in historic downtown Lincoln. He can be reached at 916-672-2042, by email at [email protected].

d ealing with winter weather can be a life-and-death struggle for our bird neighbors. Fortunately, most birds are well

equipped to deal with the cold. Birds are warm-blooded animals that have a much higher

metabolism and higher body temperature than humans. While the exact measurement varies for different bird species, the average bird’s body temperature is 105 degrees Fahrenheit.

It can be a challenge for birds to maintain such high body heat when temperatures drop.

Feathers are a bird’s chief weapon against the cold. Many bird species grow extra feathers as part of a late fall molt to give them thicker protection in the winter. The oil that coats birds’ feathers also provides insulation as well as waterproofing.

It is easy to think that a bird’s legs and feet would be particu-larly susceptible to the cold. However, its legs and feet are covered with specialized scales that minimize heat loss.

A bird can also control the temperature of its legs and feet separately from its body by constricting blood flow to its extremi-ties, reducing heat loss even further. A bird will often stand on one foot while keeping the other tucked close to its body. When the exposed foot gets too cold or tired, the bird stands on the other foot and nestles the exposed foot in its soft feathers.

A fluffed-up, shivering bird sitting on a tree limb makes us think it could be sick. But fluffing and shivering are two other ways a bird keeps warm. A bird fluffs out its feathers to create air pockets for insulation against the cold. And a bird shivers to raise its metabolic rate and generate more body heat.

Many small birds, including bluebirds and titmice, will gather in large flocks at night and crowd together in small tight spaces to share body heat.

Individual birds choose roost spots that may have residual heat from the day’s sunlight, such as close to the trunk of a tree or near

any dark surface.Even with all these adaptations to conserve heat and stay warm,

bird mortality can be very high during a severe winter. Bird lovers can help their feathered neighbors get an edge over winter.

The chief way to help backyard birds is to offer good food that is high in fat and calories to give birds plenty of energy to generate body heat.

If you choose to feed birds in winter, be sure to keep your bird feeders full of nutritious seed so the birds know where to go for a high-energy meal. Suet and black oil sunflower seeds are good high-energy foods. Buy high-quality seed as inexpensive bags of seed oftentimes contain fillers that most birds won’t eat.

If necessary, birds can melt snow to drink but doing so uses en-ergy that is needed to maintain body heat. If birds can drink liquid from a birdbath or other water source in freezing temperatures, they will have a better chance of survival.

Birds also roost in thick cover, tree cavities or manmade roosting pockets and boxes to ward off the cold. If possible, leave standing any dead trees that con-tain cavities that birds can use as winter shelters.

Birds have many options avail-able to help them stay warm in cold weather. Your help will give them an even better chance of having a warm, healthy winter. ❖

"b iscotti" is the plural form of biscotto. The word originates

from the medieval Latin word biscoctus, meaning "twice-cooked." It defined oven baked goods that were baked twice, so they were very dry and could be stored for long periods of time.

Biscotti is popular in many parts of the world and aside from being eaten with drinks, they are used as an ingredient in a va-riety of traditional dishes. In Catalonia, such dishes include rice with sardines and rabbit with snails. They are also used in sauces with onions specifically calçots. In coastal Baix Llobregat, biscotti are used in the sauce for a dish of duck stuffed with turnips. 

According to Sweet Tooth Design Company: Biscotti traces back to the Ancient Rome when Roman biscotti was the most convenient food for travelers and the Roman Legion. Because biscotti are twice-baked, they result in a hard and dry texture, but with a very long shelf life. According to writing of Gaius Plinius Secundus (23 A.D. – Aug. 25, 79 A.D.), better known as Pliny the Elder, he boasted “that they [biscotti] would be edible for centu-ries.” Now you know who Pliny the Elder is too but that’s another story altogether. Hmmm, I wonder if biscotti goes well with beer?

I have never made biscotti before this, but I can tell you I most certainly will be making it again. I will try many different combina-tions. The possibilities are endless when you play with your food. ❖

Italian biscotti has ancient beginnings

According to writing of Gaius Plinius Secundus (23 A.D. – Aug. 25, 79 A.D.), better known as Pliny the Elder, he boasted “that they [biscotti] would be edible for centuries.”

AnISE BISCoTTIYield: 48 Cookies | Prep. 20 minutes | Cook 35 minutes Preheat oven to 350 degrees

InGrEDIEntS:3 eggs

2 -1/2 teaspoons of anise extract

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3/4 cup of sugar

Pinch of salt

1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup cornstarch

3/4 cup sliced almonds

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

DIrECtIOnS:Combine the eggs, extract, sugar and salt in a mixing bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer and whip with a hand mixer set at high speed or in a heavy duty mixer fitted with the whip. Continue whipping until the mixture is very light and increased in volume, six to seven minutes. while the egg mixture is whipping, combine the flour, cornstarch and baking powder and stir to mix.

remove the whipped eggs from the mixer and sift over the flour mixture in three additions, folding it in after each addition with a rubber spatula. The batter will lose most of its air and become rather stiff. Add the sliced almonds and fold in.

remove the dough to a floured surface and separate the dough into cigar shaped loafs about 2-inches wide by 1-inch thick. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake the logs about 20 minutes, until they have risen and are golden.

remove them from the oven and place the logs on a cutting board. using a sharp serrated knife, slice the logs diagonally 1/2-inch thick. Place the biscotti cut side down on the pan and return them to the oven for about 10-15 minutes (turning them over at the halfway mark) until they color lightly on the cut surfaces.

Biscotti can be stored for up to one month in an air tight container.

Our Mission is to Help You Stay Connected.

– David Gibson

+ Don’t feel rushed.Friends and family are a great resource. Advertisements and promotions can’t tell you nearly as much as a friend who has had a fabulous experience. If you don’t know anyone, then visit a few offices, at least two, and get a sense of who you will be working with. You want to feel comfortable with your provider and not feel hurried or that you are taking up the provider’s time.

+ Try before you buy.It is the law in California that individuals can return their hearing aids before 45 days if they do not meet their needs. An office that sells top tier brands of hearing aids and has a skilled professional should be able to program the hearing aids so they provide a dramatic improvement to your lifestyle. If you are not impressed with the performance of your hearing aids, you need to return them. Don’t give up, however! At our office, The Hearing Aid Center, we know that one size does not fit all, so we carry hearing aids from several manufacturers. If our clients aren’t totally happy with their hearing aids after several adjustments, we begin a hearing aid trial with a new manufacturer so we can find the perfect fit.

+ What’s in the Package?There are usually 4-5 levels of technology: basic, mid-level, advanced, and premium. Most people can be fit successfully in mid-level or advanced hearing aids. There is a significant price range for hearing aids. Ask for details. So why do some offices charge $1,500 for a mid-level hearing aid and others charge $2,500? This is where your due diligence is essential and can save you money and disappointment. Find out what is included in the price: warranties, free batteries, free follow-up visits.

+ Kick the tires. Hard.Hearing aid manufacturers have made some great improvements in the last several years. Understanding voices in noisy places such as restaurants or large rooms has greatly improved by enhancing the clarity of speech and minimizing background noise. The first month of wearing your hearing aids and “kicking the tires” is crucial. Wear them in restaurants, at the movies, watching TV, on the phone, talking in the car. If there are environments where the aids performance is falling short, feel comfortable about calling the provider and getting an earlier appointment so that they can better adjust your aids to meet your needs and challenges.

+ Remember, don’t lower your expectations. Don’t settle for “that’s just how it is.” If you are not noticing a significant improvement in understanding your friends and family, then ask to try a different hearing aid from a different manufacturer or return them and try another provider. We invite you to include us, The Hearing Aid Center, in your “due diligence.” We strive to provide the best service, offer the best prices to achieve the highest in customer satisfaction. Please give us a call or stop by and let us know how we can help. – By David Gibson
