n his 1814 poem, The Excursion, William

Wordsworth wrote, The good die first,
and they whose hearts are as dry as sum-
mer dust burn to the socket. This line illus-
trates the harsh reality of a universe that often
allows good people to die young, while those
with hearts as dry as summer are sometimes
the ones who live longest. But what
Wordsworth didnt anticipate when making
the claim that the best among us are the first
to pass away was Ted Krause.
Last Wednesday, August 3rd, Ted Krause
became a centenarian, celebrating his 100th
birthday amongst friends and family at the
Vineland YMCA. If you believe in
Wordsworths line from The Excursion,
Krause must be a cold-hearted, selfish, and
cantankerous individual, who has exhibited
longevity because of his ill-tempered nature.
In reality, that couldnt be further from the
truth. In listening to those who know him
best, the consensus indicates that Krause is a
generous and benevolent man, whose constant
acts of selflessness have enriched every life
with which he has come in contact.
Every endeavor has been blessed by
[Teds] presence and his contribution, said
Rabbi Alfredo Winter, who practices at the
Beth Israel Congregation, where Krause has

Letters to the Editor
Animal Shelter and Its Plea
From time to time, the Cumberland County
SPCA (CCSPCA) issues press releases
regarding their hardships and asking the
public to contribute either monetarily or
with goods and services. Today, I read in
The Grapevine that they issued A Plea
from Cumberland County SPCA press
release regarding the food shortage for
their animals.
They allegedly have a food shortage at
the shelter and for whatever reason, they
are dealing with an increase in the num-
bers of intakes (animal admissions).
One of the reasons might be that the
management of this facility sees fit to keep
seeking more and more municipal shelter
contracts, many of which are out of the
county municipalities such as in Salem and
Camden counties. This is putting a burden
on the already overcrowded facility.
The average person might ask, why
would a shelter that can barely handle the
animal intakes fromjust two of their largest
Cumberland municipal contractsMillville
and Vineland (Vineland alone spends
$100Ka year of your tax dollars towards the
shelter)seek out-of-county shelter con-
tracts? Answer: Its all about the $$$! It was
a well known fact during my tenure as a for-
mer CCSPCA trustee that their largest prof-
it margin was in animal intake and euthana-
sia (a nice euphemismfor killing). There is
little to no money to be made in the adop-
tion side of the shelter business.
This leads me to the next issuewhy did
the national SPCA, in general, deviate from
the original mission of Henry Bergh,
founder of the first SPCA in 1866? His mis-
sion was to focus on cruelty prevention
only. When he died, the organization made
a radical change and discovered that a prof-
itable trade could be made by going into the
shelter business. Here we are in the 21st
century now. Do you think Mr. Bergh would
be proud to see the organization he founded
has turned into a legalized killing business?
The CCSPCAneeds to get out of the
shelter business and stick to doing what they
always did best, cruelty prevention. Henry
Bergh would most certainly agree with me.
Lewis Vinci, Buena Vista Twp.
Editors Note: The following letter was sub-
mitted prior to last Thursdays announcement
that Mayor Robert Romano had canceled
the contract to have reality TV baker Cake
Boss, create the citys 150th birthday cake. for
the perspective of the local bakeries, see p. 17.
Vinelands Cake Controversy
I was perplexed and admittedly annoyed
when I learned that the Cake Boss was
creating the citys cake for the 150th anniver-
sary celebration of Vineland on Saturday,
July 30, 2011. Why would the anniversarys
Blue Ribbon Committee choose an estab-
lishment without a viable connection to
the city of Vineland? This puzzling deci-
sion can be a simple lesson in economics
and educating the local consumer.
Shopping local helps keep businesses
open and brings in sales tax revenue that
pays for local services. Commissioning a
cake from a talented entertainment baker
who lives in the northern part of New
Jersey is not supporting the economic base
of the community of Vineland. Simply put,
it is fiscally irresponsible (regardless of a
business donation) that a city leader and
planning committee do not understand the
important economic benefit of supporting
local businesses. Isnt the celebration about
the proud past and promising future of
Vineland? I dont believe the basis of the
celebration is about a celebratory baker
located on the other side of the state.
How does an independently owned
business such as a bakery in Vineland
thrive? It is by living in Vineland, working
in Vineland, getting to know their cus-
tomer base and providing good value for a
fair return. The local bakeries of Crust &
Krumbs, Jim Mains, San Paola and Sweet
Life are invested in the community of
Vineland. These bakeries support many
non-profit organizations and are part of
the local businesses that make the commu-
nity of Vineland a home.
The Blue Ribbon Planners of Vinelands
150th Anniversary celebration should have
thought local first as your local, independ-
ently owned bakeries are invested in
Vinelands future and could have easily
provided a cake worthy of Vinelands past
and promising future!
Jennifer Klotz, Buena Vista
Band-Aides Thank Alumni
My thanks to everyone who participated in
the Vineland High School Marching and
Alumni Concert and Parade on Sunday. It
was a memorable and exhilarating experi-
ence. Some traveled long distances to per-
form with people who they didn't know,
but shared a common bond in the band tra-
dition. Some started picking up instru-
ments they hadn't touched in years, with
some regret that so many years had gone by
without music in their lives. That also
includes color guard, who quickly put
together a routine for the parade. It was
also a time to honor the memory of those
who started the band in 1931. I am sure that
they would be proud of the fact that the
band continues on 80 years later. Those
who participated in the band in any way,
are invited to join the alumni band and the
Band-Aides, who provide financial and
practical assistance to the band in parades
and other performances. Just hearing the
sound of the cadence will bring back mem-
ories and allow you to participate in some
way again. Contact us by visiting www.vhs-
marchingband.org or by calling 856-794-
6800 x2539. It really is never too late!

Solar Energy Array at Boscovs
Construction began recently in Vineland
on a $4 million, 962 kilowatt solar array
that will span the roof of one of the nations
last family-owned department stores, an
official with Danza Energy Group said.
This will be a great money-saver for
Boscovs at Cumberland Mall, said A.J.
Danza, CEO of The Danza Group.
Boscovs is thinking forward, and this
installation is a testament to the manage-
ment of the company.
In all, Danza said, the solar array will
cover about 100,000 square feet on the roof
of the Boscovs building.
But theres a lot of energy packed into
that square footage, said Paul Jeun, co-
founder of IPP solar. The average home
uses about 5 kilowatts of energy per year,
he said. This array is rated at more than
900 kilowatts or enough to power about
190 homes for a year.
Vineland Mayor Robert Romano said:
Were the only municipality in New Jersey
that generates electricity, and Vineland is a
huge supporter of solar power. Were a go-
green city.
ALGAR Ferrari at NJMP
New Jersey Motorsports Park and
ALGAR Ferrari, the factory authorized
Ferrari and Maserati dealership in

Park. ALGAR Ferrari will commence oper-
ations immediately, and will use the facility
to better serve the needs of their clients
seeking to enjoy their Ferrari and Maserati
vehicles on the racetrack.

Celebrating Americas Health Centers:
Serving Locally, Leading Nationally, to
underscore howhealth centers deliver a
unique approach that targets health needs
and saves taxpayer dollars. They are part-
nerships of people, governments and com-
munities working to meet the unique and
diverse health conditions of the community.
One of the bright spots in Americas
health care system, health centers provide
a health care home to over 23 million peo-
ple at 8,000 sites nationwide. Health cen-
ters are on track to expand care to 40 mil-
lion people over the next five years.
Every day in our waiting rooms I wit-
ness the value of having a health care
home, said Gwendolyn Gould, chairperson
of CompleteCares Board of Directors.
When people have a place to go for regu-
lar care, they use it and stay healthier. We
provide a range of services onsiteprimary
care, pediatrics, cardiology, podiatry,
OB/GYN, optometry, gastroenterology,
infectious disease care, geriatric care, den-
tistry and even mental health services. Our
patients not only get the care they need
under one roof, but they are treated as indi-
viduals, with dignity and respect. This is
what health care should be, and what we
celebrate this week.
Now more than ever, public support is
needed for health centers as Congress
attempts to reduce the budget deficit with
spending cuts to the program and changes
to Medicaid that could further reduce
access to preventive care for millions. To

A Man and His Cars
{ STORY AND PHOTOS BY MICKEY BRANDT }
I had the car in Ocean City
So begins one of the countless rambling,
detailed, and interesting stories 84-year-old
Morris Sarnoff tells of his life as an automo-
bile collector and apostle for the hobby. His
five Chryslers are old, rare, and in perfect
condition and he keeps themin a large, cus-
tom-built, memorabilia-filled, temperature-
controlled garage behind his Vineland home.
Unlike almost all other local collectors
and restorers of classic cars, Sarnoff owns
vehicles that are in their original condition
and have not been rebuilt or refashioned.
At one time, before he began selling some
of his then-11 treasures, his Chrysler collec-
tion was unrivaled in the region.
I have the best collection of unrestored
cars anywhere; my cars are showroom new
and Im proud of it, he stated simply and
directlythe way he consistently talked
during this interview.
He bought his first car, a 1941 Chrysler
Cabriolet Windsor Highlander convertible,
on September 10, 1959. (Just as Sarnoff is
precise in his care of the cars, hes precise
in his reminiscences). With minor tweaks,
the car remains as he bought it, complete
with its original license plate.
Youve heard of love at first sight? I fell
in love with this car, he said last Saturday
as he displayed the Cabriolet at Vinelands
150th anniversary car show.
The first time Sarnoff saw the car, the
owner wouldnt sell. He kept seeing it
around town and kept making offers to its
several owners until it became his. He was
now a collector.
His second acquisition, which remains
the jewel of the lot, was a black 1950 Town
and Country Woodie (a portion of the
rear bodywork is constructed of wood).
Less than 700 of them came off the assem-
bly lines of the time and Sarnoff noted that
precisely 77 survive.
I have one of only two black ones in the
country, he said with characteristic pride.
Nothing, with the exception of my wife,
Dodi, is as beautiful as natural wood and a
dark color.
All hes done to the car is put on new
tires, varnish the wood, and install new bat-
teries as needed. The Woodie has the origi-
nal jack and an oil change sticker from July
12, 1967. His 1972 nine-passenger station
wagon displays the dealers sticker, show-
ing Sarnoffs purchase price of $7,352. It has
9,000 miles on it 39 years later.
Sarnoff, who is in excellent physical con-
dition and still works out lifting heavy
weights, takes one of his vehicles to about 12
car shows a year. He stays in the Delaware
Valley area. You never knowwhen youre
on the way, you might break down or some-
body might run into you, he explained.
Hes been married to Dodi for 44 years;
they have three children and four grand-
kids. Hes apparently as much in love as
when they met at, of course, a car show. He
made his living as an entrepreneur (Sarno
Chemical), selling car cleaning products
that he manufactured to dealerships and
garages throughout southern New Jersey.
People to this day tell me I made the
best white wall cleaner, he said. He retired
in 1989.
What motivates Sarnoff to spend the
time, energy, and money to stay at the top
of his hobby even as he ages? Simple.
I go in that garage every day and sit in
my chair and it makes the clock go back. I
just sit there for an hour. It might seem
crazy but I just look at them, he said.
Then he starts another story. I
Sarnoff with the
jewel of his car
collection, a 1950
Chrysler Town and
Country Woodie.

Morris Sarnoff has had several classic cars over the
yearsand has many stories surrounding each one.

Vintage Vineland { BY VINCE FARINACCIO }
Partys Not Over
The birthday candles may be extinguished but
Vinelands 150th year has more fun events to come.
T
he parade may be over, the
birthday celebrated and an
extended weekend series of fes-
tivities now only memory, but
Vinelands sesquicentennial year is far
from over if the Vineland Historical and
Antiquarian Society (VHAS) has anything
to say about it. Having just participated in
Sundays parade, the Society has filled the
remaining four months with a full sched-
ule of events that will take us to the brink
of winter with some holiday themes and a
closer look at what the citys history has
to offer. VHAS Administrator/Curator
Patricia Martinelli recently took some time
out to discuss the upcoming programs.
First up, in the spirit of PBSs popular
Antiques Roadshow, the VHAS will offer
an Antiques Identification Clinic on
September 17 from 1 to 3 p.m. Visitors may
bring a maximum of two items for identi-
fication or appraisal by Bob Brooks. There
will be a $5 charge per item.
Mr. Brooks has been an auctioneer in
Malaga for over 30 years and is a veteran
when it comes to this kind of stuff,
Martinelli said. A lot of people will come
in and say to us, I have this old chair of my
grandmothers, or I have this old dress,
and I just started thinking that it might be
fun for them to have the opportunity to
bring this stuff out and share it with others
and get a sense of its history and value.
Martinelli also announced that the
Society will host an evening of games,
ghouls and goblins for children from
kindergarten to fifth grade on October 28,
from 6 to 8 p.m. The Halloween party will
provide the children with the opportunity
to paint their own mini-pumpkin amidst
games and ghost stories. And parents,
Martinelli explained, can stay and watch.
A first for the Society, the Halloween
party provides an opportunity to intro-
duce children to the VHAS and its histori-
cal trove.
We havent really done anything like it
before, said Martinelli, and we thought it
might be fun to give the kids a chance to
come in here and see the place in a fun
environment. But because we have limited
capacity in the building, we are asking that
the children be registered in advance.
The event will also include a prize for
one of the events participants.
The evening will end with a drawing
for a paper-mache pumpkin piata filled
with candy that one lucky child will get to
take home, Martinelli said.
The following month, the VHAS will
focus its attention on one of Vinelands
prized legacies when, on November 5
from 1 to 3 p.m., it presents Gay Taylor
who will be lecturing on Durand glass.
Mrs. Taylor is a noted authority on
American glass, Martinelli explained,
and she has a lot of experience on this
particular subject. Im sure its going to be
very interesting. Taylor has spoken
throughout the country.
With the Durand collection that we
have [at the VHAS] and the fact that it
remains quite a hot collectible today, I just
thought it would be a subject that would
be interesting for local residents,
Martinelli said.
One of the common occurrences dur-
ing Vinelands earliest years was an open
house during the Christmas season.
Originally hosted by town founder
Charles K. Landis, the gathering was a
good opportunity for the residents to
enjoy one anothers company in the
Yuletide spirit. To help close out the
sesquicentennial year, the VHAS will res-
urrect those days with a Christmas Open
House on December 10 from 1 to 3 p.m.
It will give people a chance to come in
and help us decorate the Christmas trees,
learn a little bit more about the different,
lesser-known Christmas traditions that
existed in America back in the day and
just have a nice afternoon get-together,
Martinelli explained.
She said the Society may look into hav-
ing live music performed by a choral
group and emphasized that this gathering
will be family-oriented.
Martinelli is excited about the fall pro-
grams. Imhoping that well get a good
response fromthe public because we do
want to offer different subjects and differ-
ent activities that we feel will pique peoples
interests, she said. We want themto start
thinking of the Society as a place where
they can come out, learn a little something
and have fun while theyre doing it. I
The Vineland Historical and Antiquarian
Society is located at 108 S. Seventh Street
(at Elmer Street) in Vineland. The office
phone number is 691-1111.

N
ow that Vinelands 150th birth-
day has officially passed, it
seems like an appropriate time
to reflect on where the city has
been and what we have to look forward
toat least as far as the downtown is con-
cerned.
The year of 1861 was a momentous year
for our nation. Of course, thats the year
when Charles Landis founded the City of
Vineland, but just a few months before that
Abraham Lincoln succeeded James
Buchanan as President. About five weeks
later, on April 12, the Civil War began with
the bombardment of Fort Sumter in South
Carolina. In November of that same year,
Jefferson Davis was elected President of
the Confederate States of America.
Fast-forward 50 years and were in 1911.
The portly William Howard Taft is living in
the White House and Roald Amundsen
becomes the first man to reach the South
Pole. The cost to mail a letter is an outra-
geous two cents and our own Philadelphia
baseball team, the Athletics, beat the New
York Giants in six games to win the World
Series.
By the time Vinelands 100th birthday
rolls around in 1961, World War II has
already been fought and won, but its sad
effects are still seen, as East Germany
builds the Berlin Wall to stop its citizens
from fleeing into West Germany. On a hap-
pier note, Alan Shepard becomes the first
American in space, Harper Lees master-
piece To Kill a Mockingbird wins the
Pulitzer Prize, and a first-class stamp will
set you back four cents.
The dozens of volunteers who made up
the Mayors Blue Ribbon Committee did a
great job of organizing all of the festivities
that have taken place this year to celebrate
Vinelands birthday. While doing so, they
were guided by a simple mission they
adopted: Honor the past, embrace the
future. In the downtown, we are doing the
same thing.
Today, at 150 years old, Vineland still has
a bright future. Over the years, weve seen
the downtown go from thriving to neglect-
ed and back on the upswing again. The
redevelopment of the treasured Landis
Theater and respecting the history of indi-
vidual buildings along Landis Avenue as
they undergo faade improvements are two
ways that we honor our past.
The opening of the Landis MarketPlace
and the recruitment of new, quality busi-
nesses to the downtown are two ways that
we embrace our future, and you can have
an important role in that future. In an
effort to learn what kinds of businesses
residents would like to see as part of
Landis Avenues retail mix, Main Street
Vineland is conducting a very brief, three-
question online survey. I encourage you to
take just a moment or two to take the sur-
vey and share your opinion with us. You
may access the survey at http://www.sur-
veymonkey.com/s/ZSVX5J9.
****
Join us on Saturday, Sept. 24 from4 to 9
p.m. in the 600 block of Landis Avenue for
the 5th Annual BBQ-n-Chili Cook-off, spon-
sored by Susquehanna Bank and supported
by Comcast. With a terrific blend of jazz
and good ol fashioned rock-n-roll as the
backdrop, contestants will let their BBQand
chili do the talking as they vie for prizes.
Tasting kits are just $5 each and are
available by calling Main Street Vineland at
794-8653. This is always one foot-stompin,
finger-lickin, rib-stickin great time! I

ow that Vinelands 150th birth-
day party is done and over
with, Ive had a little time to
reflect on how crazy and
stressful and fun the week leading up to it
was. As you likely know at this point, it
began last Saturday when I went outside,
opened the newspaper and read that TVs
Cake Boss would be making Vinelands
celebratory birthday cake. Little did I know
that the next week would involve radio and
television appearances, Internet stories,
massive amounts of conversation in the
bakery and in the virtual world of
Facebook, a newfound fellowship of all the
bakeries in town, and at the end of it, an
awful lot of cake.
One of the most amazing reflections that
I have from this last week is the power of
social media. Yes, weve all read about how
Facebook and Twitter recently helped to
bring down the governments of Tunisia and
Egypt, but those instances were so massive
and abstract, its really difficult to actually
grasp how important a role social media had
in bringing about those actions. But after
reading the paper last Saturday, I went right
onto Facebook, made a frustrated comment
on The Sweet Lifes page, as well as the
Mayors page, and into cyberspace it went.
The responses from our guests were
immediate and overwhelming. Facebook gave
people a unified voice, a voice that was able
to focus its frustrations in one place. The
same thing happened on the Facebook page
of Crust N Krumbs Bakery, and after talking
to their manager, Robyn, I realized that it
wasnt just Sweet Life guests who were mad.
Later in the day, after conferring with our
staff (and at the insistence of so many guests
that were coming into the bakery to offer

Cake Controversy
The Cake Boss order is cancelled as Vinelands
bakeries unite to provide birthday cake for all.
Continued on next page

on the set of The 10 Show in Philadelphia.
ABOVE: Mayor Robert Romano and Dr. Frank
DeMaio make ceremonial first cut of cake.
their support for keeping the cake local, as
well as from the other bakeries in town),
we decided to create a protest page called
Operation Cake Bomb.
That name was a play on Cake Boss
and photo bomb (which is when some-
one unexpectedly jumps into the back-
ground of a picture to make an uninvited
appearance). We all felt that Vineland bak-
eries should represent Vinelands 150th
Birthday with cake, and our respective
guests agreed with us. We decided to make
our own cakes and just show up on Sunday
with thema cake bomb!
On this protest page, a virtual focal point
had been created and the debate really
began. With all that debate focused in one
place, the larger media took notice. The
Daily Journal called for a story. Then CBS 3
from Philly arrived with their news van.
The next day we were interviewed by The
Philadelphia Inquirer, NBC 10, NBC 40, CBS
Radio in Philly, and even articles on the
Internet. It became big news.
It was a little overwhelming, since we
were trying to run the business as usual,
and a bit distracting to boot, but as a small
business owner, press like that is priceless.
Going to Philly to the NBC studios was par-
ticularly fun, as Sweet Life and Crust N
Krumbs got to go behind the scenes, meet
the hosts and crew of The 10 Show and
show off our goods to tens of thousands of
people in the Philadelphia area. What fun!
The Blue Ribbon Committee took
notice, and invited all the bakeries to a
meeting. The crux of the meeting involved
Dr. DeMaio graciously asking what they
could do to make the bakery community
happy. Perfect, we just wanted to partici-
pate. Plans were made to formally display
our cakes alongside the Cake Boss cake,
and all was well. Two days later though, we
got word that there would now be no Cake
Boss cake. At first, we were concerned that
there wouldnt be enough cake for the
birthday party, but Vinelands bakeries
worked overtime and went above and
beyond (not just us, but across the board) to
make almost 3,000 servings of cake.
Sunday came, and it was hot. I was a
concerned about all the cakes, but the city
had set up a huge tent for us, and it was
cool enough in the shade. Jim Mains
Bakery started unloading box after box of
sheet cake, then Crust N Krumbs followed
with just as many. I picked up a three-tier
cake and sheet cake from La Hacienda, and
Sweet Life made several hundred cupcakes
as well as sheet cake. Each bakery also
made a display cake for the birthday, and
they were all laid out for the people to see.
It was astounding. Everyone, on super
short notice, and all in the name of civic
pride, produced an amazing amount of
cake. After his opening remarks, Mayor
Romano came over, apologized for the con-
troversy, and proceeded to cut into Jim
Mains cake along with Dr. DeMaio. Water
under the bridge, as far as were all con-
cerned. The Happy Birthday song was
spontaneously started, and afterwards, the
3,000 servings of cake disappeared into the
mouths of hungry Vinelanders.
This whole week wasnt about politics to
the bakeries, but about civic pride, the eco-
nomics of sending thousands of dollars
upstate, and the philosophy of buying locally.
I knowour Mayor meant well when ordering
the Cake Boss cake, and I thank him and
the Blue Ribbon Committee for all the
planning that went into the birthday cele-
bration. But Im also proud of the people
and businesses of Vineland for standing up
and voicing their opinions, for letting our
leaders know what they believe in.
It was humbling for all of us to see so
much community support based around, of
all things, a birthday cake. And Im so very
happy to have found a newfound fellowship
with the local bakery community; Robyn
from Crust N Krumbs, Sandra at Jim
Mains, and Robert at La Hacienda I now
consider as friends. Although technically
speaking, were still competitors, this week
showed us all that theres plenty of business
and love for every bakery in Vineland, and
when we come together, our synergy truly
can make a difference.
Happy 150th birthday Vineland! I

EATING OUT
From fine dining to lunch spots to
bakeries, the area has choices to satisfy
any appetite. Call for hours.
E
very summer when we were kids,
my mother changed her first name
to Tomato. She became the poster
child for this luscious red fruit
and spent the rest of each summer trying to
eat as many tomatoes as she could find. Dad
was her supplier and Id come downstairs in
the morning to find her sitting at the kitchen
table, salt shaker in one hand and a tomato in
the other. She used to tell us stories of how
her dad had a small vegetable patch on their
farm and he would always save the first ripe
tomato for her.
Me? I like the plum tomato and have, of
course, eaten other varieties from the various
farm markets in the area, but I always won-
dered about heirloom tomatoes. I never
quite knew what they really were or where to
find them, but it seems that they are cropping
up more and more in food magazines and in
cookbooks, so I was thrilled to find out that
we have someone here right in Vineland
growing them.
Momma Donnas Organic Greenhouse
Specialties, located on Ascher Road in
Vineland, has quite a few varieties of heir-
loom tomatoes as well as other organically
grown produce. Donnas huge plot of land is
tucked away on a quiet country road and
you could almost believe that you were back
in another time. Call her for directions at
856-305-4761.
Here is a great little recipe for summer,
using those heirloom tomatoes. Make up a big
batch and keep it handy for spreading over
grilled meats or just serve it on crusty slices of
toasted bread for a light and savory snack.
Tomato Jam
8 large heirloom tomatoes, seeded & chopped
2 tbsp fresh thyme
2 red onions finely chopped
1/4 cup local honey
2 tbsps olive oil
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tsps coarse salt
1 1/2 tsps black pepper
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two
baking sheets with foil. Toss first three
ingredients in large bowl and them divide
between two sheet pans, bake one hour,
take out and set aside while whisking next
five ingredients in bowl. Pour over both
trays, increase oven temperature to 400
degrees, bake 35 to 45 minutes more or
until mixture begins to caramelize,
remove and let cool. Serve as desired. I

Gleanings { DEBORAH A. EIN, MANAGING EDITOR }
Travel Bug 2
L
ast time, I outlined some budget
travels across the country. The
best way to save money on vaca-
tion, obviously, is to take day
trips, where you can return at the end of
the day for lodging in your own home.
This has been called the staycation, and
with the price of gasoline and airline fares
in summer, its a popular way to create
some family memories. So this time, I will
discuss some ideas right here in our back-
yard, with uncensored commentary from
my three kids.
BOGARTS: We visit the countys sole
bookstore on High Street in Millville as
early each summer as we can, and always
find that it is all any bookworm could want.
We take our summer reading listsschool
and personal listsand generally find
everything we need/want. Owner Amy
Lombardo stocks numerous copies of
books on the summer lists of area schools.
Known widely as a store that carries used
books, it also stocks new copies of current
bestsellers and other popular books. If you
dust off your bookshelves at home and take
some used books to Bogarts, you can get
up to 75 percent off used books that you
purchase off the Bogart shelves. My daugh-
ter gave up a box full of Babysitter books
last year, and this year we dropped off a
collection of Goosebumps books, so last
year we spent just $17 on a bunch of used
books that we needed, plus we received a
voucher for 75 percent off this years pur-
chases. Heres what my kids had to say:
A: Getting rid of those Babysitter
books has cleared off my bookshelf for
these Nicholas Sparks books!
G: Lets go back for brownies. (Yes,
they sell treats, too.)
W: I really want this coin book. (We
steered him away from it, a new book
tucked away in a selection of hobby
books, then surprised him with it for his
birthday.)
DELSEA DRIVE-IN: Last summer, we
visited the only remaining drive-in in the
state to see Toy Story 3. At the outset, our
kids were not thrilled at the prospect of
watching a movie in the big outdoors,
maybe because we have Dive-In movies
at our community pool. The cost at the
Delsea is $8 per adult, $4 for ages 12 and
under. If you want to bring your own food
in (no drinks allowed), its another $8 per
car. There are two screens, and these
prices entitle you to stay for either one or
both.
A: Toy Story, really? Do we have to
stay for the whole thing? (She was 15 at
the time.)
G: I cant see from back here.
W: Cant we go to the stand for better
snacks? Whens it gonna start, anyway?
Yes, it got a little better once the movie
started, but we decided we should have
introduced this form of movie-going when
the kids were younger.
WOODBINES SAM AZEEZ MUSEUM:
A little off the beaten track and just over
the line into Cape May County, the
sleepy town of Woodbine harbors an
interesting history. A museum there
depicts how a Russian Jewish population
settled there after the killing of Czar
Nicholas led to religious persecution in
the homeland. The synagogue is on the
upper level of the museum, above a floor
with dioramas and panels that tell the
story of how the town and its people
struggled to survive. A visit to a nearby
cemetery shows names of people noted
at the museum and who helped shape
the town. This is a good trip for the
home-schooled and school groups learn-
ing about tolerance, as it is a designated
teaching center for the NJ Commision on
Holocaust Education.
A: Lets go upstairs and see what the
synagogue is like. (We did, and with their
Jewish Grandpa having passed away eight
months prior, our kids felt a special con-
nection to this place.)
G: Can we get a treat after this?
(Well, everyone expresses emotions dif-
ferently.)
W: Bet I can beat G on this quiz. (The
lady at the desk handed out activity sheets
after we had gone through the history
panels. Both boys did well, as did a friend
who was a year older and had studied the
Holocaust in school that year.)
Theres still plenty of summer left to
take one or more of these family excur-
sions. And dont forget the beach. Living
in this region, were fortunate that a day at
the beach is an affordable day trip, too,
and its a big hit with kids of all ages.
A, G, and W most certainly agree. I
Here are a few ideas for day trips, with
comments from the peanut gallery.
been a member for 81 years. There is a
saying that states, Add life to your years,
and not years to your life, and Ted has
certainly done that.
Hes something very special, echoed
Rabbi Emeritus, Dr. Murray Kohn, who
also practices at Beth Israel. If there is
any human being to emulate, its Mr.
Krause.
The high praise for Krause is under-
standable when considering just how
exceptional he is.
At the ripe age of 100, he lives a
lifestyle more suited to that of a man half
his age. He still sells life insurance at
AXA Equitable, where he has worked for
64 years, and where he is now the oldest
ever active employee. He still serves as a
regular advisor to the Vineland YMCA,
even though he retired from the board 15
years ago. And hes still a board member
at the Beth Israel Congregation, where,
according to synagogue members, there
have been very few activities that have
occurred without Krauses guidance and
leadership.
In the midst of all of these social and
community activities, Krause still finds
time to work out regularly, swimming at
the Y five days and week, and to help
care for his ailing wife, Sarah, who is one
year his senior, and suffers from a heart
condition.
When reaching this juncture in life,
most men would slow down, and trim
away some of their obligations because of
weariness or fatigue. Krause, on the
other hand, has no intention of taking it
easy, even if he is in his golden years.
At work, my clients need me. They
count on me to be there, and I have no
intention of letting them down, he said.
The synagogue is my second home,
and Im not sure what Id do if I werent
spending time involved there. My friends
are there, and my faith is too important
to me to give up everything I do there.
When asked what it is about the Y,
then, that keeps him so involved, and
keeps him coming to swim laps five days
a week when everyone would understand
if he wanted to stop, Krauses tone
doesnt vary much.
The Y has been an inspiration to me,
he said. Forty-one years ago, I came to
see if I could still swim, and I never
stopped. I dont want to stop.
The synagogue is my second home,
and the Y is my third. Here he paused,
taking a moment to reflect on all the time
he has spent at the YMCA and what it
has meant to him. Without the Y, I dont
know that Id be here today.
If you get the sense that Krause con-
tinues to live life to the fullest, not as
much out of desire, but because hard
work and community activism are all he
knows, youre right.
Krause doesnt continue to be a bea-
con of longevity and a testament to being
only as old as you feel for the acco-
lades. He does it because its always how
hes done things. He even suggested that
doing things the right way is the secret to
his long life.
In your lifetime, you can do the right
thing or the wrong thing, he said. I find
its just as easy to do the right thing.
Doing the right thingwhether it be in
work, religion or whateverits what
keeps me going.
William Wordsworth preached that
the good die young. When it comes to the
great, however, theres no telling just
how long life will last. By Ted Krauses
standards, its at least 100 years. I

Jersey Fresh Produce
Available at Markets
New Jersey Assistant Secretary of
Agriculture Alfred W. Murray and Diana
Limbacher, deputy regional administra-
tor, United States Department of
Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service,
toured community farmers markets in
Essex, Hudson and Union counties
recently and declared Jersey Fresh sea-
son in full swing.
All of New Jerseys 144 community
farmers markets, featuring the freshest,
best-tasting produce grown by our states
farmers, are open for business as of the
Fourth of July weekend and many will be
operating through to the end of October,
said Murray. Farmers are reporting
excellent quality crops this season, so
everyone should visit a nearby farmers
market, meet the people who grow our
food, and help support our agriculture
industry.
Murray and Limbacher visited the
University Hospital Auxiliarys Farmers
Market in Newark and the Elizabeth and
Hoboken Farmers Markets. Certified
farmers at these and many other markets
throughout the state accept Women,
Infants and Children (WIC) and Senior
Farmers Market Nutrition Program
(FMNP) vouchers for the purchase of
locally grown fresh fruits, vegetables and
herbs. The United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) program adminis-
tered by the State Department of Health
and Senior Services allots $20 in checks
to qualifying individuals, which are valid
through November 30.
The WIC Farmers' and Senior
Farmers' Market Nutrition Program pro-
vides our states most vulnerable resi-
dents with access to locally grown, nutri-
tious fresh fruits and vegetables, said
Acting Health and Senior Services
Commissioner Dr. Tina Tan. We know
that once people discover the health ben-
efits of these farmers markets, they
become regular customers.
Limbacher further emphasized the
value of farmers markets for federal
nutrition assistance recipients.

By welcoming WIC and Senior
Farmers Market coupons, markets like
these provide access to fresh fruits and
vegetables and other healthy foods which
may not otherwise be easily available.
Accepting the coupons benefits the farm-
ers as well, by expanding their customer
base, she said.
Murray and Limbacher started their
tour at The University Hospital
Auxiliarys Farmers Market, which fea-
tures two farmers and two vendors sell-
ing pickles and frozen foods. While
there, they were given a demonstration
of how Jersey Fresh produce on sale at
the market can be turned into healthy
meals.
It is very gratifying that our Farmers
Market, now in its third year, continues
to flourish, said Robin D. Wittenstein,
Ed.D., FACHE, acting president and CEO
of UMDNJ-University Hospital. With
an ever-increasing variety of fresh, nutri-
tious foods, the market reinforces the
role of The University Hospital and all of
UMDNJ as an asset to the health of our
community.
The market takes place 11 a.m. to 3
p.m. Tuesdays at UMDNJ Plaza and this
year will continue until October 25.
Assistant Secretary Murray was joined
at the Elizabeth Farmers Market by
Assemblywoman Annette Quijano. The
market has one farmer and several ven-
dors selling baked goods, nuts and gour-
met foods. Market Manager David
Strochak said the market, operated by the
Elizabeth Avenue Partnership, was started
to give residents, senior citizens, moms
and children a chance to eat healthy and
also attract shoppers to the area.
Weve been proud to preserve home-
grown Jersey produce for a ninth year,
said Strochak. The market is a neat one-
stop experience where people can get
Jersey Fresh produce, just picked earlier
that day, and maybe shop at nearby stores.
The farmers market runs from 11 a.m.
to 6 p.m. Tuesdays in Union Square and
will continue through November 29.
The final stop of the tour was at the
Hoboken Farmers Market, a long-time
and popular fixture of the area, started as
an effort to get farm-fresh, local produce
to the people of Hoboken.
The market gives New Jerseys small
farmers a market to help stay afloat and
keep agriculture in the Garden State,
said market manager David Calamoneri.
Its a place for the community to come
together, apolitically, and exchange
smiles and recipes.
Four farmers and several other ven-
dors selling baked goods and pickles par-
ticipate in the market, operated by the
Hoboken Quality of Life Coalition, from
3 to 7:30 p.m., which will continue
through November 1.
Jersey Fresh produce is reaching the
peak of the season with many fruits and
vegetables available. Jersey Fresh items
currently available at farmers markets
and roadside stands include baby
spinach, cantaloupe, watermelon, honey-
dew melons, cucumbers, squash, pep-
pers, eggplant, basil, beets, cabbage, col-
lards, sweet corn, swiss chard, tomatoes,
arugula, kale, leeks, cilantro, parsley, dill,
mint, lettuces, dandelions, and turnips.

New Jersey Floriculture
Industry Big Business
New Jersey Secretary of Agriculture
Douglas H. Fisher recently announced
that the value of New Jerseys floriculture
crops was $178 million last year, up 7 per-
cent from 2009.
Fisher visited Timothys Center for
Gardening in Robbinsville to announce
the results of the survey conducted by the
United States Department of Agricultures
National Agricultural Statistics Service.
New Jersey is a major producer of
bedding plants used to beautify peoples
homes and businesses throughout the
state, said Secretary Fisher. By purchas-
ing the plants grown here in the Garden
State, consumers are assured the plants
are acclimated to our climate to grow and
thrive. The purchase also helps support
our states farmers.
Floriculture crops include bedding
plants, such as flowering annuals, and also
cut flowers, chrysanthemums, hostas,
lilies, poinsettias and foliage plants.
The survey showed that New Jersey
ranked eighth in the nation in expanded
wholesale value of floriculture crops, just
behind neighboring New York, but out-
pacing Pennsylvania and Maryland.
Bedding and garden plants sales were
$110.5 million, an increase of 3 percent
from a year earlier. New Jersey also had
$12.4 million in cut flower sales, up from
$11.4 million in 2009.
Dominick Mondi, executive director of
the New Jersey Nursery and Landscape
Association said the survey shows that
floriculture is a viable industry in New
Jersey and, along with other horticultural
products and services, is a great contribu-
tor to the local economy.
Now that you know, use that knowl-
edge to wisely purchase locally grown
plants from independent growers and gar-
den centers; your garden and the environ-
ment will thank you," said Mondi. "All the
same benefits you receive from buying
your produce locally, like higher quality,
less fuel spent on transport, and support-
ing the local economy, you get with pur-
chasing flowers locally, as well."
Timothys Center for Gardening grows
annuals, perennials and fall mums on one
and a half acres. Timothy Serinese is the
third generation in the business, which
was started by his grandfather, father and
uncle on the same location in 1965.
Our specialty is our large selection
and quality; we have one of the largest
retail perennial departments in the area,
said Serinese, who has an Ornamental
Horticulture degree from Delaware Valley
College. The best part of this business is
knowing your customers enjoy coming to
your store and that you are helping to
make the yard or garden the way they
want it.
