Rick, my dad Harry and my father-inlaw Richard) a wonderful Fathers day too. Each of them prove the following words very true: It is not flesh and blood but the heart which makes us fathers and sons. ~Johann Schiller.

helped in the planning and/or were responsible for managing specific areas of the event. I am sure the patients are feeling much better as a result of the wonderful care and attention lavished on them by our doctors, nurses, hospital staff and volunteers. Although this is more of a Public Relations-type Event for the children, at the end of day, a small amount of money is raised and all proceeds will go towards the purchase of much needed hospital equipment. Thank you all once again for your support and I truly hope you enjoyed it as much as the Kids did as was evidenced by the smiles seen on their little faces. See you again next year!

Carol says....
No doubt it was a picture meant to get people talking and it has. The subsequent article is lost in the furor over the title...Are You Mom Enough?...The Mom in question is surprised at the blowback shes getting from her provocative pose with her 4 year old. Her challenge to other Moms to be more like her. Really? There is something wrong with what shes done on so many levels. First off shes put her son in a position that not now, but down the road, will make him the butt of boob jokes. She used him for her own celebrity seeking campaign. She talks about attachment parenting, letting kids wean themselves. So, what if he decided 8 or 10 would be fine? Would she allow that? Where is the line where you go from a nurturing mother to someone who is abusing their child? And when was the last time a nursing Mom had her child stand on a chair to reach her. Cant say as I remember doing that! Once they are old enough to belly up to the bar so to speak they can open the fridge and get a glass of milk, or juice as the case may be they dont need Mom for nutrition. There is a point where this becomes more about the mother not being able to allow her son to grow up. Its attachment parenting alright. Maybe what she needs is another baby or a job, something that wont allow her to mother her son to the point of smothering him. Believe me, being in the media I know that a catchy headline and a provocative picture are prerequisites if you want a piece to trend on twitter and be a star in social media. Its all about competition for the eyeballs and ears, but when you throw a 4 year old into the mix youre treading on dangerous territory.

Season with salt and pepper. 3. Divide the potato mix between the 4 pieces of foil and fold into individual packets. 4. Place each potato packet on heated grill over indirect heat, and cook for about 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Turn over packet halfway through cooking.

We all love to BBQ during the summer, but I often get tired of the usual side dishes (baked potato, coleslaw, potato salad) and desserts, so Ive been working on putting together some BBQ versions of our favourite oven-cooked dishes. The logic here is typical for Grannys Kitchen: the recipes have to be fast & easy to prepare, include ingredients you have around the house and taste great. Here are three that weve tested and love. If you have other BBQ recipes you think our readers would like, send us an email and let us know (rsargent@sympatico.ca) and well feature them in a future issue!
BBQ Asparagus
Ingredients:
1 bunch fresh asparagus spears, trimmed 2 tablespoons olive oil Sea salt and fresh ground pepper to taste Parmegiano-Reggiano grated Directions: 1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill. 2. Place asparagus in a tinfoil casserole sized dish; evenly coat inside with oil half the oil. 3. Toss asparagus in remaining oil and sprinkle with sea salt & pepper before putting in the tinfoil dish. 4. Cook marinated asparagus on grill until tender 5. Just before serving, sprinkle with Parmegiano-Reggiano to taste.
I got this recipe off the internet (http://bbq.about. com/od/fruitrecipes/r/bl91013a.htm) and we love it! Like the potatoes, you cook it up in individual packets for easy serving and clean up.
8 medium apples, sliced thinly (tart apples work best) 1 cup whole oats 1 cup brown sugar, packed 1/2 cup butter 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg Directions: 1. Combine oats, sugar, four, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a small bowl. 2. Cut in butter until you get a crumble mixture. 3. Layout 6 square pieces of aluminum foil. 4. Divide apples and crumble mixture into six even portions and place each portion on a sheet of foil. 5. Close the foil packets tightly and place on a preheated grill over a medium heat. 6. Grill for about 20 to 25 minutes. 7. Remove packets from grill, open (carefully), and pour into individual bowls. 8. Top with a scope of vanilla ice cream.

Sweetener Asparatame
Brand Name
FDA receives more complaints on aspartame than any other food Equal, NutraSweet Is converted by the body to formaldehyde and then formic acid (toxic) Significantly affects mood and behavior Can increase appetite Has been linked to seizures, migraines, hives, Multiple Sclerosis and nerve dysfunction No nutritional value 200 times sweeter than sucrose loses sweetness when heated
Saccharin Sweet N Low Known cancer causing agent in rats after 2 generations of use
300 times sweeter than sucrose Is not recommended in pregnancy Cannot be consumed by those with allergies to sulfa drugs Associated with headaches, diarrhea, skin rashes and breathing difficulties No nutritional value
Sucralose
Splenda
600 times sweeter than sucrose-does not lose sweetness when heated No nutritional value Is not at all related to sugar. It is a chlorine containing molecule that was initially developed as an insecticide Associated with bloating, gas, diarrhea, nausea, rash, hives, redness, itching, swelling, wheezing, cough, runny nose, chest pains, palpitations, anxiety, anger, moods swings, depression, and itchy eyes Associated with reduced number of beneficial gut bacteria in rats Interferes with absorption of prescription medication
What is Sugar?
Unfortunately, artificial sweeteners cause their own list of health problems. Cancer, depression, seizures, migraines, nerve function impairment and weight gain have all been linked to artificial sweetener use. The debate is heated and ongoing, with research wavering on the validity of the claims of either side of the argument. The key point to remember is that they are artificial; i.e. they are not natural and therefore the body does not know how to metabolize or use them.
Fruits contain fructose, which does not create the insulin spike associated with glucose While consuming large quantities of high-fructose containing foods (such as corn syrup) is related to increased cardiovascular risk, consuming whole fruits is beneficial to the body. Added benefits include high vitamin, mineral and fibre contents Apples, pears and dates can be added to cookies and squares for natural sweetness and a wide variety of beneficial vitamins and minerals. Honey is high in Vitamin B6 and riboflavin Excellent source of iron and manganese Contains many other vitamins, minerals and protein Antioxidant and enzyme activity Beneficial to health gut bacteria due to its nutrient content Anti-microbial activity known to help the immune system Equally as sweet as table sugar Not recommended for infants under the age of 1 due to immature digestive tract Honey can replace table sugar in any recipe at a 1:1 ratio
Fruits
Excellent source of manganese (2 Tbsp. = 37.7% daily requirements) Contains zinc, potassium and calcium Has been shown to inhibit two sugarmetabolizing enzymes associated with Type 2 Diabetes. Contains antioxidant enzymes that reduce free radical damage to cells Maple syrup can replace table sugar in any recipe at a 1:1 ratio
Maple Syrup
Honey
While artificial sweeteners and excess sugar are known to cause a myriad of health concerns and diseases, the fact remains that sugar is a crucial element to both pleasure and health. So the question arises, how do you ensure that you get enough sugar without adversely affecting your health? The answer is to choose unrefined, naturally occurring foods and to consume those high in sugar in moderation. Below is a list of sources of naturally occurring sugars. Honey and maple syrup can be used to substitute for table sugar, as they are equal in sweetness, but contain far more beneficial nutrients then simply glucose. Certain fruits can also be substituted for table sugar in baking for more interesting and nutritious baked goods. Vegetables are composed of complex carbohydrates (or starch), which are very long chains of glucose. These starches are broken down and absorbed slowly over time, reducing the insulin spike associated with simple carbohydrates (table sugar). Added benefits include high vitamin, mineral and fibre contents Beets, pumpkin and carrots can be used in baking such as cakes and breads to add sweetness and a variety of other important nutrients

Great Big Gardening Tips a.k.a. NEVER go to a gardening centre on the holiday Monday in May
Education Matters
By Stan Cameron Public School Trustee Peel District School Board
Caledons 2012 Award of Excellence Recipients
lessons, strategies and character strength messages to all of Caledons (both the public and separate school boards) grade 6 students. Officer Gord retires from his OPP position at the end of June, 2012 and on behalf of all PDSB students, parents and staff we offer a huge thank you and our sincere best wishes. Candice Rowley lives in Caledon East and works as the office manager at Rowntree Public School in Brampton. But she does much more than manage an office. Candice received an Award of Excellence because for 25 years now she has been going above and beyond to help children, families, teachers and staff. The nomination comments were read aloud at the board office, while Candace stood between Director Tony Pontes and Board Chair Janet McDougald. The over flow crowd of supporters learned that Candace: cares deeply about people and helps everyone in need, leads the schools fund raising efforts, helps to offer a once-a-week lunch program, started up a Craft Club for students who may be unable to go out for recess and started a program to help families in need of items such as winter clothing and boots at special times of the year, such as Christmas. One of Candaces colleagues said this award was for all the lunches she missed at school and all the suppers she missed at home. The difference between ordinary and extraordinary people is that little extra. Congratulations Pat, Officer Gord and Candice.
During the last two weeks of June most of our elementary schools will be hosting their graduation
ceremonies. I look forward to attending as many ceremonies as I can get to. The limited time to hold graduation ceremonies means many will have to be held at the same time, on the same day. I look forward to celebrating with schools I couldnt get to last June. Congratulations to all of our Caledon school grads. You did it.
Awards of Excellence are presented by the Peel District School Board to staff, students, volunteers and business partners who have made exemplary and unique contributions to public education in Peel. Thirty individuals were presented with this award at the end of April. Three of the recipients were from the Caledon area. Pat Shields has been a volunteer at Herb Campbell Public School, where her children attended and her grand children attend, for the past 35 years. WOW! Pat is a wonderful, giving person who positively models what kindness really means to a school and its community. Pat has helped with many programs and projects at Herb Campbell over the year. Her love for children is quickly obvious when one sees her in the company of students. Its like shes a grandmother to every child she meets and best friend to every family, teacher and principal she gives her time to. Pat Shields will long be appreciated for how she puts the saying, ...it takes a village to raise a child, into action. OPP officer Gord Vandergretin, better known as Officer Gord to thousands of grade 6 Caledon students, is a 2012 Award of Excellence recipient for his important and outstanding work in delivering the DARE program. DARE (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) originated through the proactive efforts of our former trustee Valerie Arnold-Judge. Valerie wanted to ensure that all grade 6 students in Caledon would have access to this vitally important information. Bob and Janet Fines, owners of Fines Ford in Bolton, continue their long standing efforts as the generous corporate sponsor for the DARE program in Caledon. Together, this triad of caring, giving and forward thinking Caledon community members have been bringing
