Healthy Living with Anne McKinney
Melanoma/Skin Cancer
Detection & Prevention Month
Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the United States.
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is the main cause of skin cancer . UV
radiation can also come from tanning booths or sunlamps. The most dangerous
kind of skin cancer is called melanoma. The good news? Skin cancer can almost
always be cured when it’s found and treated early. Communities, health
professionals, and families can work together to prevent skin cancer or detect it
early on.
Make a difference: Spread the word about strategies for preventing skin
cancer and encourage communities, organizations, families, and individuals to
get involved. How can Melanoma/Skin Cancer Detection and Prevention Month
make a difference? We can use this month to raise awareness about skin cancer
and help people take action to prevent or detect it, both at home and in the
community. Here are just a few ideas:
Encourage families to adopt good habits together, like wearing sunscreen and limiting their
time in the sun. Motivate teachers and administrators to teach kids about the harm of UV
radiation and why it’s important to protect yourself. Identify youth leaders in your
community who can talk to their peers about taking steps to prevent skin cancer.
Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the United States.
Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is the main cause of skin cancer.
UV damage can also cause wrinkles and blotches or spots on your skin.
The good news is that skin cancer can be prevented, and it can almost always be
cured when it’s found and treated early. Melanoma/Skin Cancer Detection and
Prevention Month. During the month of May, join us in taking action to prevent
skin cancer and reduce the risk of UV damage.
Stay out of the sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Use sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher. Put on
sunscreen every 2 hours and after you swim or sweat. Cover up with long sleeves and a hat.
Summer is Here!
Making Memories with Carly
The official day summer begins is June 20th; but if you ask me,
summer begins when the heat overrides the cool breeze and your hand
seems like the only spot for an ice cold beverage!
Whatever makes you feel like welcoming the summer, please come
join in the many activities we offer at Pine Valley! A new addition in June will
be is called “ Treasure Stories”. Everyone is invited to share ANY item they
have acquired that means something special to them and has a story to tell!
Also, as this summer highlights various patriotic holidays, we want to honor
June 14th with the History of Flag Day. I cannot thank you all enough for
welcoming me with open arms! See you in the APR!!!
~ Carly
Recipe Corner
BLT PASTA SALAD
Ingredients
12 ounces corkscrew-shaped pasta
1/2 cup milk
12 ounces lean bacon
3 medium ripe tomatoes, cut into chunks
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1 clove garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
4 tablespoons chopped chives or scallion greens
5 heads Bibb lettuce, quartered, or 5 cups chopped romaine hearts
Directions
Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water as the label directs. Drain and toss with the milk in a large
bowl; set aside.
Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat until crisp. Drain on paper towels.
Discard all but 3 tablespoons drippings from the pan. Add the tomatoes, thyme and garlic to the pan and toss until
warmed through; season with salt and pepper. Crumble the bacon into bite-size pieces; set aside 1/4 cup for
garnish. Toss the remaining bacon and the tomato mixture with the pasta.
Mix the mayonnaise, sour cream and 3 tablespoons chives with the pasta until evenly combined. Season with
salt and pepper. Add the lettuce; toss again to coat. Garnish with the reserved bacon and the remaining 1 tablespoon chives. Serve at room temperature.
