By Pat Hampton

Grateful to the voters who returned them to the city council, the
mayor and two councilmembers
took their oath of office with a
pledge of transparency and accessibility.
At Tuesday night’s city council meeting, newly appointed city
clerk Kathy Flamson administered
the oath of office first to Mayor
Chris Canning, who ran unopposed
for his second two-year term of office, and then to incumbents Jim
Barnes and Gary Kraus who were
both elected to four-year terms.

Canning said he felt the work
of the city council was supported
by voters who returned all three to
their respective seats. He said he
would continue to be accessible
and would serve “with dignity, respect and compassion.”

RAIN OR SHINE, the 19th annual Calistoga Lighted Tractor Parade rumbles down Lincoln Avenue at 7 p.m. tomorrow, Dec. 6, with 58 entries of all things tractor-like.
The 45th Annual Calistoga
Christmas Bazaar is tomorrow at the fairgrounds.
State grant money will put
$100,000 into the city’s 2014/2015
police budget and will fund several
programs, including personnel and
equipment.
Police Chief Mitch Celaya told
councilmembers that the state’s
Citizen’s Option for Public Safety (COPS) program has awarded
the grant to Calistoga for eighteen years. The amount of money
awarded police agencies expanded
in 2000 to provide grants of a minimum of $100,000.
Celaya said $12,500 will be
used to fund the juvenile diversion
program; $34,510 to fund 20 hours
a week of community services,
code enforcement and vehicle
abatement.
The largest allocation of
$39,623 will continue to pay for a
full time dispatcher, while $8,672
will pay for cell phones and service
fees for the Livescan fingerprint
system. Some $6,500 will be used
to fund patrol staff time while the
remaining $2,795 will be put into
reserves for unanticipated costs.

New stores opening just in
time for holiday shopping
By Amanda Rhodes
Tribune Staff Writer
Two new local stores are open
for business just in time for the
holidays and more shops are in the
works to open in Calistoga soon.
Vine Trail Espresso – From the
inviting sign hung at the entrance
to the smell of freshly brewed Arabica coffee wafting through the
doorway, it’s nearly impossible to
not stop at Calistoga’s newest caf-
feine hot spot, Vine Trail Espresso. Located at 713-C Washington,
near Shaw Plumbing and La Corona Market, owner Deanna Wolf
says it’s the perfect location for her
fourth coffee shop.
“I still can’t believe how sweet
the people are here,” Wolf, who
has always had a vision of opening a shop and living in Calistoga,
said.
Things are falling in place for
Wolf. She opened the Calistoga
location Nov. 5 and is renting a
house within walking distance,
something she’s thankful for as
she gets used to her new 5 a.m.
wakeup call.
Wolf, who worked in the food
and beverage world as a cook in
Amsterdam for eight years, found
that coffee is where her heart is.

Carmel, bags & new restaurants
T
he 17-mile drive between Pacific Grove and
Carmel reminds me of Lombard Street in
The City. You get in a line of cars and their
passengers doing the same thing and wend your way
past mansions and the ocean and spend way too much
time in snail-paced traffic. At the end of the drive, we
agreed we’d not ever have to do that again and will
happily keep our ten-spot for other causes.
Sonoma County’s oceanfront is just as impressive
as Carmel’s, and our restaurants stack up to those in
Monterey, Carmel or Pacific Grove. I did shiver at the
number of houses that were advertised as vacation
rentals, and the large number of resorts in the downtown area. I’m not sure what people mean when they
say “Don’t Carmelize Calistoga,” because I didn’t
see the connection. I guess it’s about the influence of
wealth and property on the future of the area and the
changes it could force onto a small town.
We spent the holiday weekend down there and were
happy to finally return to Calistoga and its shores of
friends and good ol’ Cal Mart.
Speaking of Cal Mart, you’ve no doubt seen the
tall entrance sign reminding us of the forthcoming 10¢
a bag charge when the new year starts. That means if
you have food double-bagged, you’ll be paying 20¢
for the two bags. The plastic bag ban is only for markets and some restaurants that mostly sell take-out.
What I have heard from the checkers at Cal Mart is
a request for those of us who bring in reusable grocery
bags to take a moment every once in awhile and wash
them. Two checkers told me of customers who bring
in bags that stink, have been soiled with food and are
really gross to handle let alone re-fill with fresh produce and meats. So put it on your ever-growing list of
things to do: launder reusable grocery bags and keep
them clean, you’re putting your food in them!
Speaking of restaurants, met Brandon Sharp in
front of his new restaurant building on Washington
Street. I asked him when the new place will open and
he said it would be Feb. 2. Heard from someone else
that the pub area of the old 1226 Washington St. eatery
will be the main dining room, the new owners will
expand the patio seating, and the other small restaurant
extension will be a tasting room.
Sam’s Social Club, the new dining experience at
Indian Springs, will open in early 2015 and will serve
“rustic American cuisine with a Mediterranean influence.”

America’s breach in credit card technology
ost Americans would
say we lead the world in
technology, but on a visit
to my homeland I was in for an unexpected education. I had the luxury of a
few days in London before heading for
the Welsh hills. Suffering from jet lag
and not a minute to waste, I enquired at
the concierge desk in my hotel the best
way to get to my favorite department
store in Knightsbridge. “The Bakerloo
Line will take you directly there,” was
the quick response. Perfect, I thought
as I headed for the tube station directly
underneath my hotel at Paddington
station. A quick look around the deserted ticket area left me baffled. Did I
want zone 1 or 2 or is zone 3 better? I
flagged down a ticket agent who gave
me a 30-second lesson on buying my
tube ticket for Zone 1 as I handed over
five quid and headed down the long
escalator to find the Bakerloo line.
The next morning feeling confident
that I could navigate the ticket area
without help, I stood in the long lines
of commuters all patiently shuffling
toward the ticket machines. I watched
their fingers dart over the keypad; then
in the blink of an eye their credit card
was read and their ticket issued. It was
my turn. Zone 1, click. Then I looked
for the slot for my credit card. No slot!
I watched the line next to me to see
what to do. I tried mimicking their actions. After several attempts to place the
card in every direction possible on the
small pad, I could not get it to produce
a ticket. By now I was holding up my
line. True to British fashion, everyone
kept calm while I
fumbled with a new
card. American Express should do the
trick, but not even
that fortress of secure credit would
spit out a day ticket
to Zone 1. Completely flustered I
asked the young
commuter behind
me what the problem was? A quick
glance at my card,
and she announced
I needed a chip and PIN credit card!
“You have to buy your ticket
through the agent,” she said and gestured over to another even longer line.
I finally got to the window and handed
over the offending card. “What’s
wrong with this?” I said with an
insulted tone. “American?” he asked. I
nodded. “America is still on the swipe
card,” he said in a tone like yesterday’s
news. He pushed the ticket, card and
receipt needing my signature back
through the glass opening.
As I hurtled underground towards
Trafalgar Square and a day at the
National Gallery, I wondered just how
far I could travel with a wallet full of

out-dated technology, or was this just
an isolated incident?
The same scene repeated itself at the
museum cafeteria, gift shop and later
at a small Italian bistro close by my
hotel. Now I was making excuses for
my credit card as they went to hunt for
archaic machines to swipe it through
and subsequently a pen for me to sign
my signature.
By the end of my trip I was apologizing in advance to the cashier of
every small business for the inconvenience of my swipe card. What happened to American ingenuity?
It seems we have fallen behind a
good many countries employing ‘smart
cards’ to secure their owners credit history. Chip and PIN cards have an encrypted microchip the size of a pinhead
embedded in
them out-dating
the magnetic
strip of a swipe
card. Owners
personalize
their cards with
PIN numbers.
No more cards
leaving the
owners possession to be
taken behind
the scenes
to process.
No signature
needed. No forgeries hatched.
Each time a chip and PIN card is
used it generates a new encrypted
transaction code that renders it virtually impossible to counterfeit. Great
Britain, France and Canada and more
than 80 other countries worldwide
switched several years ago to the chip
and PIN method. They report, dramatic
decreases in credit card fraud by 70
percent.
The changeover to chip and PIN
in America will be costly, a current
estimation of $35 billion. Imagine for
a moment all the places one swipes a
credit card: national chain stores like
Macys, Target, Home Depot, Costco,

Best Buy as well as the ATM machines, the gas pump, the local grocery
store and all the small businesses
across the country will need to convert
to the new method.
The bulk of the expense will go
to businesses while banks also take
on the cost of issuing billions of new
credit cards and installing new ATM
machines nationwide. Think also for
a moment how many credit cards are
in your own wallet. Each one will be
replaced and each would require a
separate PIN number to ensure their
security. Don’t even think of using
the same PIN for every card you own.
Cyber hackers count on human nature’s
lazy ways.
Target’s security breach in the
height of 2013-holiday season was the
second largest in U.S. history. It left 40
million credit and debit cards compromised, exposing consumer credit history to identity theft. Sales plummeted
during that period and subsequently
Target shares were down 1.2 percent.
Credit card processes that monitor accounts for fraud were first to uncover
the cyber attack and high-level Target
executives resigned over the security
breach. With an ever-increasing use of
sophisticated technology, cyber attacks
are inevitable on outdated magnetic
strip cards. Over the past 12 months
alone hackers have tapped into several
more national retailers and restaurant
chains.
Why has America stalled securing consumer credit when so many
countries made the change years ago?
The Smart Card Alliance, a committee
of technology leaders promoting smart
cards for the U.S. reports that the credit
card industry in America is complex.
Millions of credit card terminals,
retailers, banks and major credit card
companies have a huge task ahead and
estimate billions of dollars to make the
switch.
Smaller European countries were
not faced with such high costs and
therefore welcomed the new technology. But who should pay for what is
the simpler question? Postponing the
solution has been the answer to our
credit protection.
Americans are increasingly given
the eye roll when traveling abroad with
their outdated cards as the shop owner
hunts in a dusty drawer for obsolete
swipe equipment.
While some banks in America will
issue a chip and PIN card on request,
only 1 percent of U.S. cards have
chips. Change is slowly coming, but
until then hackers find America one of
the easiest countries to commit fraud in
by taking every advantage of our outdated systems.
The next time you tuck your credit
card into a restaurant folder to pay the
bill, ask yourself, “Who swiped my
card?”

Opinion
In her hands: My mother’s skill as a baker is unmatched
T
he maternal branch of
my family tree is from
Norway.
There are obvious obstacles
for Norwegian cooks given the
signature dish of their culture is
lutefisk, which is dried cod that’s
been soaked in a lye solution.
Color is another challenge
since most Scandinavian food
is white. Mashed rutabagas are
considered a vibrant vegetable.
Meatballs are subdued with
cream gravy. But Norwegian baking is delightful. It compensates
for other culinary limitations, and
my mother’s skill as a baker is
unmatched.
My favorite delicacy is the
sandbakkel (pronounced SUNDbahk-uhl). I’ve always called
them “Sun Buckles” because I
learned the name by ear before
I recognized the word in print.
This cookie-like treat is baked
in a tin that resembles a cupcake

wrapper. Its pleats crumble in
the mouth releasing a buttery
sweetness with a hint of almond.
The ingredients are simple: flour,
sugar, butter, egg, and almond
extract. The trick to baking this
Poetry Corner
Ted Kooser,
U.S. Poet Laureate,
2004-2006
delectable treat is the manner in
which the dough is pressed into
the tin.
The best sandbakkels are consistently thin throughout so they
bake evenly until lightly golden.
Bakers with clumsy fingers produce cookies that are thick on the
bottom resulting in a sandbakkel
that’s too brown on the top and a
bit pale or soggy on the bottom.
This is where my mother’s talent shines.
Even though her hands are 86
years old, they are agile, large and
strong: a golfer’s hands, a piano
player’s hands, a quilter’s hands.
Busy hands, seldom idle hands.
Their movement is quick and
graceful.
I’ve yet to see a professional
baker or Food Network chef
who can roll out a piecrust with
movements more deft than my
mother’s. It’s almost as much fun
to watch Mom’s nimble fingers

But here’s
James Crews,
whose home
is in St. Louis,
“relatively” at
ease with the
smallest things
we’ve been told
are all around
and in us.
I could almost hear their soft collisions
on the cold air today, but when I came in,
shed my layers and stood alone by the fire,
I felt them float toward me like spores
flung far from their source, having crossed
miles of oceans and fields unknown to most
just to keep my body fixed to its place
on the earth. Call them God if you must,
these messengers that bring hard evidence
of what I once was and where I have been—
filling me with bits of stardust, whaleskin,
goosedown from the pillow where Einstein
once slept, tucked in his cottage in New Jersey,
dreaming of things I know I’ll never see.

A
nother year and another
upcoming, festive and
fabulous Calistoga
Tribune luncheon hosted by our
publishers Pat Hampton and
Ramona Asmus. A gift exchange
has always been a part of the
celebration. Early on back in
2003 or 2004, we had a limit of
twenty dollars, but I no longer
remember how the recipients
were sorted out. I had called the
Calistoga Bookstore (no longer
in business) to have a gift certificate ready and waiting. I raced in,
exchanged money for certificate
with Reese Baswell (now retired)
and hustling out the door stopped
short realizing and saying aloud,
“I don’t remember where we’re
by Jeri Hansen
having lunch,” and Reese called
out, “Miguels” (no longer in business) to my rapidly exiting frame
and I thought, only in small town
Calistoga would a locally-living
merchant have his finger on the
pulse of his community with this
kind of sweet familiarity and be
able to so direct me.
Luckily I had found a parking space right at the corner of
Lincoln and Washington. The
person in the space behind me had
infringed on my space causing me
to put the nose of my car about
a foot and a half into the red. I
returned a couple of hours later to
find Parking Enforcer Art (still in
business) had ticketed me to the
tune of twenty five dollars. Expensive lunch that year.
Since then, the gift exchange
has become a raucous, ruthless
‘White Elephant’ affair. I’ve
scored some great gifts, some not
so, but one, I remember the most.
Early in the draw, Yvonne
Henry had opened a small, beautiful red satin box tied with a sheer,
forest green ribbon. In it was an
ornate silver elephant sculpture
reminiscent of early ‘60s Cost
Tribune MysTery PhoTo
Plus days when their buyers collected what we used to think were
real treasures from all over the
world. I had the benefit of the last
draw.
As the numbers and exchanges
progressed I saw nothing equal to
that elephant. I looked at Yvonne,
oblivious of my interest, clutching that little elephant to her chest
with the innocence of a child
playing across her face. My turn. I
took it. She was totally surprised.
Reluctantly, ever so slowly, she
handed it over.
It took up primary real estate in
my home yet I have to say, every
time I looked at it I felt a little
pang of guilt thinking one day I
would give it back to its rightful
owner, Yvonne.
Now, it’s a few years later and
we were together for yet another
Calistoga Tribune Christmas luncheon. I went into an elaborate
description of that day back when,
admitting my sense of guilt ~
expressing my intent to give the
little elephant back one day and
Yvonne looked at me with that
same innocent face and said...
“What elephant?”

BUSINESSES
In 2004, she opened her first
Mugshots Espresso shop and now
owns two other locations under
the same name in Middletown and
Hidden Valley Lake.
Wolf said opening the Calistoga shop is a testament to the longterm people who work for her.
“Really loyal employees make
it all possible,” Wolf said.
Creating the name and logo for
her coffee shop was an important
process that took time to get just
right, Wolf said.
The sign, with the red bicycle
and rolling green hills, as well as
the name she decided on, are both
reminders of what will be coming
in the future.
The 47-mile Vine Trail is currently in different stages of construction and will connect Vallejo
to Calistoga in the coming years.
The route will bring cyclists, hikers and outdoor enthusiasts just
steps from her front door.
So far, Wolf said she hasn’t
done any advertising and has relied solely on word of mouth,
something that’s working so far.
“I’ve never done this well with
a new shop before,” Wolf said. She
added that a mailer in both English
and Spanish would be sent to all
Star Gardens
Calistogans soon.
Looking to the future, Wolf
said she would probably add a few
light snacks and tasty treats but
wants all the attention to stay on
the drinks.
The large menu on the wall, one
side Spanish and the other English,
features everything from a white
chocolate mocha to a red-hot cinnamon dolce.
Also on the menu: smoothies,
milkshakes, Thai tea, Italian sodas
and green tea and hibiscus coolers.
If you’re looking for something
a little different, try Wolf’s ultimate favorite drink, the horchata
latte. It’s a combination of homemade horchata, a traditional drink
made mainly of rice and cinnamon
and espresso.
“A marriage made in heaven,”
Wolf says of the drink that can
come hot or frappe style in the
warmer months.
You can get your caffeine fix
seven days a week at Vine Trail
Espresso. Open from 6 a.m-6 p.m.

O’Brien and her husband, also
owners of two Internet-based business, moved from Kona, Hawaii to

“What a fun shop,” one tourist said as she strolled through the
store. Hearing a comment like this
is music to O’Brien’s ears.
O’Brien said she was sitting
at the stop light on Lincoln Ave.
when she saw the for lease sign in
the window. She thought to herself, why not and signed the lease
the next day.
“I’m learning things I’ve never
imagined,” O’Brien said. She recently learned how to prep, prime
and paint the walls of her shop
herself.
O’Brien defines the word
Stompy as a lively act of maceration used in winemaking. It’s a
name she came up with herself and
glad she did.
Stompy is open seven days

Put Up or Shut Up: Get even! Give fruitcake!
By Rosie Dunsford
Calistoga Inn
A
hh! The dreaded
fruitcake. For the most
part I would say interest in the old fruitcake has thinned
to a trickle. But for some reason
I found myself thinking about the
one I used to make as a young
married in the ‘60’s... it was worth
the making!
Every November the Chron
would publish The Best Fruitcake recipe. So I decided to start
poking around and see if I could
find that recipe. And guess what?
Of course I found it. It is part of
the recipe collection in The San
Francisco Chronicle Cookbook,
Chronicle Books published in
1997 by Michael Bauer and Fran
Irwin. Got the book. On page 360
is Jane Benét’s Fruitcake (Best
Recipe).
So who’s Jane Benét? Jane
Benét was the food editor for the
Chron from 1953 to 1988. She
is no longer with us and finding
information about Ms. Benét is as
difficult as putting drops in a cat’s
eyes. But, I am working on it. I
did read that she used a second
name, Jane Friendly but that provided no additional information. I
mean, you’d think that some soul
who worked as a food editor for all
those years at a big newspaper in
San Francisco would at least make
Wiki!
Don’t roll your eyes as you read
the recipe. There is a modern list
of ingredients which I will give
you after the original recipe.
Jane Benét’s Fruitcake
(Best Recipe)
Oven temperature: 275º or 300º
1 lb. blanched almonds (3 cups)
½ lb. pecans (2 cups)
¼ lb. walnuts (1 cup)
1 lb. shredded citron (2 cups)
½ lb. lemon peel (1 cup)
½ lb. orange peel (1cup)
½ lb. candied pineapple (1 cup)
1 lb. candied cherries (2 cups)
2 lbs. raisins (6-7 cups)
1 lb. dried figs (2 cups)
1 lb. dates (2 cups)
Rosie blends the ingredients for the Best Fruitcake recipe by past food editor Jane Benét.
1 lb. dried currants (3-3 ½ cups)
1 glass of brandy (1/2 cup)
8-10 oz. jam (blackberry preferred)
4 t. ground cinnamon
½ t. ground allspice
2 t. ground nutmeg
½ t. ground cloves
2 cups butter at room temperature (4
sticks)
1 pound brown sugar
1 cup molasses
12 eggs, beaten until foamy
1 lb. all purpose flour (3 ½ - 4 cups)
2 t. salt
I substituted:
1 lb of dried pears for citron
½ lb. dried peaches for candied lemon
peel
½ lb. dried apricots for candied orange
peel.
1# dried cherries for the candied
cherries
I used candied pineapple
because I like it and golden
raisins for the raisins. No need
for blanched almonds. Natural
almonds are just fine. The other
ingredients I left as indicated. I
added zest of two oranges and two
lemons to make up for the citrus

flour or brandy as needed. Fill

bake until a straw comes out clean,
1-3 hours depending on pan size.
Jane puts a pan of hot water in the
bottom of the oven. I forgot to do
this. My yield was 9 lbs. of fruitcake. The Chron says the yield is
17 lbs. I think someone had their
thumb on the scale.
Shopping for the ingredients
was fun. I went to Andy’s Produce Market (a great crunchy, tree
hugger of a produce stand) near
Graton in Sebastopol, Trader Joe’s
and Whole Foods. Andy’s had the
best selection, Trader Joe’s also
good with Whole Foods leaving
me a little disappointed ($$ and
poor selection).
Jane had some good tips in her
1973 edition of The Chronicle
Cookbook. Take one day to buy
the ingredients. Then peck away at
the ingredient chopping and secure
them in a bowl with plastic wrap.
Take another time to line your pans
with parchment…spray pans with
an oil blend food spray before and
after lining the pans. The parch-

note left out by eliminating the
candied lemon and orange peel.
Roughly chop nuts using a
chef’s knife. Chop dried fruit
or cut into large pieces and chop
in a food processor. Don’t over
process. Dates and figs get sticky
in the processor but you just have
to break the mass into manageable pieces. Raisins and currants
don’t need chopping. (Jane used
a grinder for the dates and figs…
before food processors). Combine
all nuts and fruits in a large bowl
with all the spices, jam and brandy.
Mix well with a big spoon or your
hands (Ahh, the bowl. You need
a really big one. You may use a
roasting pan or bus tub but it needs
to be big!)
Beat the dozen eggs until
foamy. Cream butter, add sugar,
molasses and add the beaten eggs.
Mix thoroughly and add the flour
and salt a half cup at a time until
you have a batter consistency. My
batter did not use all the flour.
Pour over fruit mixture and mix

ment will stick to the oil finish.
Plan your pans. I used different pan sizes, 19 pans in all. The
smallest was a round, 1-1/2 c.
Charlotte mold. (I had three flights
of baking pans. Don’t over crowd
the oven.) This small Charlotte
mold was my favorite as it would
make a nice hostess gift paired
with a good cheese. You may also
use a traditional sized bread pan,
non-stick Bundt or tube pan. The
size of your pan(s) determines
cooking times.
Here are a couple of sample
baking times however, you will
have to wear your big girl pants
and make good decisions as to
doneness…firm center, hot center
(meat-fork tine inserted into center
burns your finger when removed
and checked for temperature), dry
broom straw method and so on.
Cooking times: I thought a
275º oven better than 300º. One
can go and do something else
rather than hover over the oven.
Like have a glass of wine with a
girlfriend.
3 quart tube pan using 2 ½
quarts of batter – up to 3 hrs.
7 ½” ring mold holding 3 cups
of batter – 1 hr. 45 minutes
My 1-½ cup Charlotte molds –
1 hour (eight in the oven at once)
8-1/2” x 4-1/2” x 2-3/4” foil
loaf pan – holding 4 cups of batter
– 2 hours
Try and keep like with like, no
itty-bitty pan with a giant Bundt
unless you are fully in attendance.
Jane pours a little brandy over
the tops of the cakes when they
come out of the oven, lets them
cool for 15 minutes, inverts and
does the same to the bottoms of the
cakes. Worked perfectly. Cakes
should be warm as a warm cake
absorbs brandy easier than a cold
cake. I don’t like brandy-drowned
fruitcake, so I was judicious.
When completely cooled, double
wrap in plastic and then tightly
in foil. They cure for at least two
weeks in a cool place, like the garage. Delicious as an addition to a
cheese course or with an afternoon
cup of tea.
They will last at least three
months or forever!

Tribune Sports Writer
Calistoga dropped its second
game of the season in a 54-29 loss
to Anderson Valley after running
out of gas in the second half.
Calistoga only managed 10 points
in the final 16 minutes as the sixman roster was worn down by the
platooning Panthers.
Erik Valencia led Calistoga
with 12 points while Carlos Montanez added 8.
The Cats are in St. Helena this
weekend for the Sutter Home invitational and will return home
Wednesday as they host the 20th
annual Gene Duffy Classic.
That tournament has been expanded to 16 teams and there will
be non-stop action as both gyms
will be utilized.
The junior varsity Cats also
dropped their second of the season
falling 60-20 to the Panthers. Alan
Venagas led the little Cats with 5
points.
Girls Varsity
On the girls side, Calistoga
used a balanced scoring attack in
downing the Panthers 48-27.
Alondra Marin and Diana Alvarez each had 14 points while
Stefani Lopez added 13. Jenna
Franquelin pitched in 8.
The Cats were slow out of the
gate trailing 16-9 at the break but
exploded for 29 points in the 4th
quarter to break the game wide
open.
The girls junior varsity picked
up a 40-27 win behind Gilda Rojas’ 21 points.
The girls will participate in the
Kelseyville tournament this weekend, and the Gene Duffy classic
next week.
