The KC Turns One!One year ago the first issue of The Kettle

Connection was published. From the get-go I wanted to provide a publication that celebrated the amazing part of the world in which we live...because it is pretty amazing and I’d like to think we all live here knowing that! It’s easy to get caught up in the day-to-day routines and stresses of life and for-get to appreciate what we have and what’s around us. The best part of producing this magazine is that with each issue I am re-minded of what a great place the Boundary

is. I always get rejuvenated putting the pages together and I strive to pass that positive en-ergy on to anyone who picks up a printed copy. I love working with the advertisers and writers, and hearing from groups who have something to share. Add to that the readers who eagerly await each issue and I feel The KC has found a home in the Boundary. Since I am on the topic of appreciation, and this issue is a celebration of sorts, I’d like to share with you what I am personally most grateful for in the Boundary region.

No peeking!Solutions to puzzles on Pages 4 & 11

• Summer! Boundary summers are hard to beat. The cool waters, warm evening breezes, and sunny skies that lend to a long gardening season makes any cold winter day bearable in my opinion.

• Nature. We have it in abundance around here. The Outdoors is literally out our doors and so easy to connect with. It is soothing to my soul.

• People. There are friendly, kind and car-ing people everywhere you go, but they just seem easier to find around here. I’m grateful for the ones I’ve met and con-tinue to meet.

• Lifestyle. This is definitely a self-serve, create your own unique opportunities kind of place. Creativity flourishes and you can see it all around you. There may be conveniences I miss by not living in a larger city, but I’ve gained so much more just by the experience of living here.

What’s on your list?

Late summer is arguably the richest sea-son here in the Boundary. The hot weath-

er (brought to you by the Year of the Snake) has made our gardens go crazy, and I can hardly wait to see what selection of home-grown marvels will make it to the exhibi-tion displays at the GF Fall Fair. In fact, if the great weather persists, we may be toss-ing zucchinis to lucky/unsuspecting parade watchers as we run out of new ways to serve them. There must be hundreds in my garden alone!

So what to do? Seriously, zucchini squash are an underestimated summer treasure, especially if you are trying to drop a few pounds. A 125 g serving of zucchini has only 20 calories. So enjoy them raw, stir fried, barbecued, baked, stewed, in soups, salads, pancakes, quiche, cookies, or quick fry and toss with maple syrup for a fast breakfast you can brag about. Stuffed zucchini blos-soms look exotic, taste delicious, and open up a whole new realm of serving suggestions. Zucchini are rich in antioxidants, high in vi-tamin C, manganese, and fibre. Their anti-inflammatory properties make them good for heart health, and manganese strength-ens connective tissue. Zukes have fairly high levels of oxylates, so if you are prone to gout, kidney stones or gallstones, you might have an excuse to avoid them. Me, I’m just in it for the cake!

Christina Lake resident Beverley Reid has been making artwork for more than five decades. Over the past forty-three years, Reid has refined a dis-tinct affiliation with fabric, revealing an intimate appreciation for its qualities. Although mainly known for her fabric assemblages, Reid’s works on

paper—her drawings, monoprints and wa-tercolours—stand on their own as wonder-fully composed works, as well as becoming stepping stones into experimentation and expansion for her fabric practice. Hang-ing by a Thread con-tains twenty-three mixed media artworks on paper created in

1990, in addition to forty fabric works produced over the past seven years.

Hello people of the Boundary! We are ex-periencing such lovely weather recently

and it only makes one realize what an at-tractive place we live in. I have seen so many small deer with their “mums,” trotting be-hind them obediently - such a nice sight. I also appreciate all the wonderful colourful people of the Boundary whom I have had the pleasure of meeting. Never have I met so many talented people in one place. The the-atre productions I have seen in my five years here have been very well done. I have been lucky enough to actually play the music for a couple of plays and, although it was very hard work, it was such fun. My seniors choir and my trio also are such great additions to my life here. As a friend remarked to me one day, only in a small town could groups like these aforemen-tioned flourish and grow. I agree with that statement wholeheartedly! Perhaps the to-pography of Grand Forks and its surround-ing countryside attract artistic people. Cer-tainly when I first saw the town, I was so impressed by the ambience and the people. My family live at the coast and although it is a pull to go back there to see them, I do not think I could live there anymore. One has to be professional to get into groups or at least audition for a place in a bigger town...not an attractive proposition!I also appreciate the birdsong I hear daily - cannot identify them, but love to listen to the songs being so cheerfully sung. Again, I hear different sounds here than I did while living in Victoria; such an assortment of birds here and their music is much appreciated by me.Thanks to all the good people of the Bound-ary for making my life so rich in music, friendship and many other artistic endeav-ours. I will stay on for many years!

Dani Collins spent two decades submitting to ev-ery publisher with a transom while holding down a day job and raising a family with her high school sweet heart. When “The Call” finally came, Dani ran with it, going to contract on eight books in that first year. Along with her Harlequin Mills & Boon titles, she has an epic fantasy ro-mance, The Healer, with Champagne Books and an indie-published roman-tic comedy, Hustled To The Altar. How long have you considered yourself a writer? Always in the romance genre?I was in high school when I knew I wanted to write romance. I start-ed seriously when I was 20, but I think I took a long time to accept that if you write you’re a writer. I figured you needed to be published before you could really wear that handle. What novels do you have published and where are they available?Locally, my books are carried by Peddler’s Place (the old Contact Photo Arts store) and the Christina Living Arts Centre. My latest Harlequin Presents, Proof Of Their Sin, was/is in Pharmasave, Overwaitea, Extra Foods and Huckleberry. For those with eRead-ers, all of my books are available digitally through Amazon, Kobo, Smashwords, and B&N. You can also get most of them in pa-perback through Amazon. The Healer, my fantasy romance, isn’t available in print yet. The print books are also carried by the GF Library. (Thanks to the team there for their wonderful support!)What is the criteria for a novel to be con-sidered romance? The quick answer seems like it would be, “They’re about a man and a woman falling in love,” but romance has branched into so many sub-genres that description no longer fits. For starters, while the strongly faith-based stories are heterosexual couples, there

are straight, gay, and shapeshifter (eg. Were-wolf) romances, so definitely not just a man and a woman. To say romance is ‘a love story’ isn’t quite adequate either. The level of exter-nal plotting varies hugely across the genres. The Healer is as much a fantasy novel as a romance. It’s heavy to world building, politi-cal intrigue, and secondary character rela-tionships while happening to have a strong

central romance as well. By con-trast, in a Harlequin Presents, the romance is the plot. The reader is looking for an emotional journey, so external events like solving a mystery are only there to provoke the growth of the relationship. Some of the more contemporary romances aimed at twenty-some-things are Happily For Now, but the uplifting ending is really what readers come back for. Romance is defined by its guaranteed Happily Ever After.

Where do you find inspiration for you sto-ries?I get asked this a lot and never have a good answer. For me, it’s a lot like putting to-gether pieces of different things that come from everyday life. A news story or a weird thing that happened to someone at work or a fun fact my kids read on the internet all get tucked away and brought out when needed. The dynamic of falling for the best friend’s wife in Proof Of Their Sin came from one of my favorite movies, Shag, but you wouldn’t recognize it.What kind of books/movies do you like yourself?Oh, I’m a diehard romance fan, but it has to be a good romance, not some flakey rom-com (which I watch because there are so few great ones.) Now you’re going to ask me what constitutes ‘great.’ Not Gone With The Wind, Casablanca, or Titanic, which are all excellent stories and gorgeous movies, but the guy does not wind up with the girl so that ain’t romance in my opinion. Sabrina is a great romance. Pride and Prejudice (the

miniseries, of course), Moonstruck, Thomas Crown Affair (Pierce Brosnan version), The Big Easy, and Officer and a Gentleman are all movies I watch every year or so. As for read-ing, I’m going to risk a scolding and admit I don’t read nearly as much as I would like to. I watch movies while I cook or clean the kitchen or do pilates. Reading demands I sit down and do nothing else. I sit a lot as it is. When I do read, I’m often reading a friend’s book or judging a contest. I think the last book I read just because it interested me was Hunger Games—which was a fabulous sto-ry and a terrible romance. She should have wound up with Gale.What is the ultimate romance novel ever written (in your opinion)?Outlander, by Diana Gabaldon, was a great book, but I don’t care for trilogies so would have preferred if it stopped at the first one. The Shadow and The Star, by Laura Kinsale, is a book I go back to often. Pride and Preju-dice really set the standard for me, though, so if we’re talking ‘of all time’ that might have to be it.Is there always a "damsel in distress" and a dude who "saves the day" in every romance story? What is the modern ro-mance about?Hollywood does romance a disservice with the romantic comedies that are neither romantic nor funny. Actually, one that played really well recently was Friends With Benefits. The characters had depth and they saved each other. Moviemakers are just now waking up to what publishing learned about twenty years ago. People forget that romance is writ-ten by women for women. In its infancy, it was edited by men who thought they knew what women would like to read. Movies are still made by men who think they know what women want to watch (27 Dresses). Romance writers are more empowered nowadays and so are their heroines. No one is standing around wringing her hands hoping Mr. Right will turn up to marry her. She’s busy pursu-ing a great life, then falling in love gets in the way. The relationship problems are relatable

even when the plots are far-fetched because today’s independent woman sees marriage and children as both a dream and a threat. Readers live the journey vicariously through her and conclude that giving up a piece of yourself for love is worth it. And again, plots vary. You might still get a kidnap victim freed by the hero, but you might also get a dude in distress because he’s got twin nephews to raise and the preschool teacher saves him. What do YOU find romantic?For me it’s not the grand gestures, but the little ones that show simple caring that I like. I don’t need a diamond necklace (where am I wearing that?) but bring me a coffee while I’m writing and I’m swearing undying devo-tion.What do you appreciate about being a writer living in the Boundary?I love the Boundary. Being a writer has noth-ing to do with it. If anything, I’d say this time of year it’s hard to be a writer here because I want to be in the lake all day, but oh darn, I guess I’m finally catching up on some of my reading at the beach. And while shovel-ing isn’t my favorite pastime, writing while the snow falls is bliss. We’ve been really happy as a family since moving here eight years ago. The community has been welcom-ing and supportive and I’ve just seen more of that as I found some publishing success. I owe the Boundary a huge thanks for that.

Dani’s next book, More Than A Convenient Marriage?, will be released in December as a 2-for-1 promo with her first book, No Longer Forbidden?, which came out in the UK earlier this year. In February 2014, watch for A Debt Paid In Passion. Find out more about Dani’s books or contact her through her website, Facebook, Twitter, or Goodreads. Join her newsletter on her website and

you’ll be entered in a draw for a signed copy of her next book.

Being Mindful

Michele runs a practice in Somatic Healing Arts Therapy.

By Michele Cipressi Dean

Secure Attachment

Attachment is the bond that is co-creat-ed between parent and child. This early

connection influences and shapes the qual-ity of relationships throughout the lifespan. Attachment doesn’t just relate to parent and child; it relates to all of our relationships: relationship to self, relationship to family, friends, co-workers, even our pets.We are hard wired to connect. As parents and caregivers, a little bit of extra mindful attention to practices that enhance bonding and attachment can go a long to way to sup-port our children in developing the capacity to connect with others in a deep and mean-ingful way. Dr. Daniel Siegel, award-winning author and educator, promotes using the 4 “S’s” to foster secure attachment:

Seen - Safe - Soothed - SecureBeing seen is being met by another with awareness. It is having one’s experience and/or emotions reflected back from a place of attunement and understanding. Safety is critical not only in developing se-cure attachment, but also in developing the higher cognitive functions of the brain. Stress hormones can inhibit learning as the entire system is caught up in responding to the threat. Stress can also cause the system to shut down in protection, thus inhibiting the capacity to connect. What makes your child feel safe? A bedtime story? A night light? A calendar that lists what will be happening day to day? Taking the time to discover what increases a sense of safety for your child is well worth the effort.This brings us naturally to the third “S”: be-ing soothed. Secure attachment is promoted when a little one is lovingly soothed; to help bring them back to centre, and to help them get calm again. This helps children learn the skill of seeking out assistance, comfort or help when distressed as they get older, as well as how to soothe and calm themselves when required.Security is the last “S”. Helping our children

develop an internalized sense of well-being promotes secure attachment. Security is knowing one will be loved, fed, cared for, and responded to in a timely fashion. Security can also be predictability, knowing what is going to happen next. Often parents get caught up in the stress of adult life; paying bills, work schedules, and unconsciously making statements that may threaten their child. “The power bill is so high, I don’t think we can afford grocer-ies this month.” This seemingly harmless statement can cause a lot of stress in a child. “Will I eat this month?”A child feels secure when a parent affirms their capacity to care for their child. This doesn’t mean we have to shut down our reac-tions or responses to stressors. It just means we might need to be a little more mindful about how we express them. In addition, making frequent statements or affirmations of care may be helpful. “I am so glad I have Saturday off so we can go shopping for your school clothes,” is so much better than, “I am too busy this week to take you school shop-ping. I don’t have a day off until Saturday.” Why not make the statement one that affirms the good, rather than highlights the negative (“I can,” rather than “I can’t.”)Sometimes it is challenging to give these pos-itive, proactive, positive affirmations of care for our children due to our own early experi-ences. When this is the case, getting some support through parenting classes, talking with a supportive friend or family member, or seeing a therapist can help to clear away negative imprints and replace them with healthier and more supportive ways of par-enting.
