Call 606-564-5585 to schedule an appointment. Fox, Wood, Wood & Estill Submitted by Shan- non Smith, CEA for Family and Consumer Sciences Grills are so versatile for preparing a variety of foods including fruits and vegetables. Grilling fruits and vegetables has many benefits. You can add new flavors to some of your favorite dishes, increase your family's fruit and vegetable intake, and they typically take 10 minutes or less to cook. This summer, enjoy some of your favorite healthy dishes fresh from the grill. Fruit and vegetables will be at their peak of freshness at different times throughout the growing season. Shop your local farmers market for the freshest offerings. Remember to arrive early to get the best selection as many popular produce items tend to sell out quickly at the market. Stone fruits like peaches, cherries and plums do extremely well on the grill as do apples, strawberries and bananas. Select firm fruit that is not too ripe, as over-ripe fruit can end up too soft when grilled. You can enhance their flavor by applying olive oil or lemon juice before placing them on the grill. Firm vegetables like corn on the cob and asparagus are easy to prepare on the grill. Place them right on your grill's cooking grid. Frequently turn vegetables to keep them from burning on the grill. You can grill smaller or chopped vegetables by wrapping them in aluminum foil and then placing them on the cooking grid. Season your vegetables with olive oil and fresh herbs in the aluminum foil. Grilled vegetables taste great as a side dish or dipped in hummus. You can even involve your family in preparing fruit and vegetables for the grill. Preparing fruit or vegetable kabobs is a fun hands-on activity. Have your children help you chop up fresh fruits and vegetables of your choosing into large chunks. Place the chunks on a skewer and grill. More information on grilling and nutrition is available at the Bracken Co.

When we love and are simultaneously loved in return, we are filled with joy. The Bible tells us over and over again that God loves us and cares for us like a nurturing parent. That is truly the Good News of the Bible. Perhaps the best news is that God loves us unconditionally and even when we sin, He isn’t angry so much as disappointed. When we meet difficulties in life, we should meet them with a heart overflowing with joy. When someone calls you needing help, instead of grumbling about having to help someone, we should cherish the opportunity to help them and share God’s love. Giving away your money may also be something you don’t relish doing, but consider Paul’s advice to the Corinthians: “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” (2 Corinthians 9:7 NIV) Love is not a finite commodity that we can run out of. The more that we love, the more love we have to give. When loving parents have children, they don’t cease to love each other, but on the contrary their love for their children draws them closer to one another. So love generously, and joyfully, and give your love to everyone you meet, freely and cheerfully. – Christopher Simon The Kentucky De- partment of Revenue has released the 2019 State Real Property Tax Rate, which is 12.2 cents per $100 of assessed value. Kentucky Revised Statute 132.020 requires the department to set the real property rate no later than July 1 st of each year. This rate is based on the revenue generated from the increase in taxable real property assessments from 2018 to 2019. If the increase in revenue is more than 4% after the exclusion of both new property added to the tax roll during 2018, and the property subject to Tax Increment Financing, then the prior year rate must be reduced. Because the assess- ment increase for 2019 is estimated at 3.92%, the state rate will remain the same as the 2018 rate, 12.2 cents per $100 of as- sessed value. All of the revenue generated from the state property tax rate will go into the state’s General Fund.
