March's Luncheon Meeting

 

 

 

We are excited to welcome Barbara Zuleger, a Certified Business Coach with ActionCOACH Business Coaching.  

 

Barbara has more than 15 years of experience in small business.  Her years as a business owner give her a unique understanding of the challenges small business owners face as their business grows and changes.  She personally understands the day to day challenges of running a business and how to overcome them one step at a time.

Passionate about business coaching and the possibilities it brings to the owners of small and medium businesses, Barbara coaches people how to stretch their visions and reach their goals.  She believes that a business can only grow as much as its owner and that our community will only be as strong as our small businesses.   

She actively participates in the local business community through BNI, Women In Networking, and as a member of the Anoka Area Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors.

 

Barbara’s purpose is to increase the vision of business owners, to motivate and inspire them and their team to use their talents for the benefit of everyone.

 ? Spring Fever is a real physical condition which commonly occurs when a sudden warm spell follows a long cold period. When the temperature rises, the body has to get rid of heat; thus there's a dilation or expansion of the blood vessels so that blood can be carried to the body surface where heat can be lost quickly.

 

Some people experience an energetic feeling when this change happens due to the body's reaction to the great amount of internal work going on.

YMCA Anoka County Youth Intervention  

 

Last summer, the Emma B. Howe Family YMCA expanded their youth intervention programming into Anoka County by offering youth outreach services and resources to youth, families and schools. 

 

Each month, CWRE will post a list of immediate needs for these individuals at our meeting luncheons.  If you are able to help by donating items on the list, please contact Rachel Niemann at Rachel@GreenwellRealty.com. or any of our Families in Need Committee  members for questions regarding this outreach.

 

 

 

Prep: 20 min., Stand: 2 hrs., Bake: 15 min. If the berries are very sweet, decrease the sugar to suit your taste. Drop the dough easily by using a lightly greased 1/3-cup dry measure.

Yield: Makes 8 servings

Ingredients

• 2  (16-oz.) containers fresh strawberries, quartered
• 3/4  cup  sugar, divided
• 1/4  teaspoon  almond extract (optional)
• 1  cup  whipping cream
• 2  tablespoons  sugar
• 2 3/4  cups  all-purpose flour
• 4  teaspoons  baking powder
• 3/4  cup  cold butter, cut up
• 2  large eggs, lightly beaten
• 1  (8-oz.) container sour cream
• 1  teaspoon  vanilla extract
• Garnish: fresh mint sprigs

Preparation

1. Combine strawberries, 1/2 cup sugar, and, if desired, almond extract. Cover berry mixture, and let stand 2 hours.

2. Beat whipping cream at medium speed with an electric mixer until foamy; gradually add 2 Tbsp. sugar, beating until soft peaks form. Cover and chill up to 2 hours.

3. Combine flour, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and baking powder in a large bowl; cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender or two forks until crumbly.

4. Whisk together eggs, sour cream, and vanilla until blended; add to flour mixture, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Drop dough by lightly greased 1/3 cupfuls onto a lightly greased baking sheet. (Coat cup with vegetable cooking spray after each drop.)

5. Bake at 450° for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden.

6. Split shortcakes in half horizontally. Spoon about 1/2 cup berry mixture onto each shortcake bottom; top each with a rounded Tbsp. chilled whipped cream, and cover with tops. Serve with remaining whipped cream. Garnish, if desired.

Strawberry Jam Shortcakes: Prepare recipe as directed. Before topping shortcake bottoms with strawberry mixture, stir together 1/4 cup strawberry jam and 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh mint. Spread cut sides of bottom shortcake halves evenly with jam mixture. Proceed with recipe as directed.
