The months of April and May always brings to mind the smells of sweet flowers and the songs of beautiful birds. The warmer weather of the outdoors

calls to us after suffering through what seemed like an endless winter. While our April has started off a little more wet than we would like, just remember that April showers bring May flowers.

Amish country is a beautiful place to observe those springtime flowers. Being located just a few short miles away, we can easily indulge in a daytrip or weekend getaway. If a weekend getaway is what you’re looking for, then plan to spend the night at one of Amish country’s finest hotels: the Berlin Grande Hotel. According to manager Doug Burgess, first impressions are everything. So, from the minute you walk in the door, you are greeted with warm, friendly smiles and presented with first class amenities.

It is in the month of May that we celebrate our love for our Mothers. While everyday is a perfect opportunity to show mom how much you love her, May 10 is a national day of recognition for all the hardworking moms everywhere. If you’re a little unsure as to what to get mom this Mother’s Day, we have provided a few suggestions in this edition of Now & Then magazine.

We also take a moment to pay tribute to Mom. We asked our readers to take a few moments to share with us their favorite memory of a time they spent with their mothers. Our tribute to mom page features some photos of our readers with their moms and a special memory they share with their mother.

You may recognize the signature pink labels on the Mary Kay cosmetics products and you may even know someone who is a representative for this fast growing company. Sue Overmier has been faithfully selling Mary Kay products for 35 years and stands by her product 100 percent. “I always tell people, ‘I am like a prescription, my product is guaranteed,’” she said.

But for Sue, Mary Kay is about so much more than makeup. Sue uses Mary Kay products as a tool to build beautiful women and in doing so, she is not only enhancing their physical appearance but making them more confident in their own skin.

We hope that this edition of Now & Then will brighten up your day and get you in the mood for all things spring. We hope you have plenty of opportunities to take a walk or just sit outside on the porch and enjoy the sights, the smells and the sounds of a promising spring. Let’s put winter behind us and welcome spring!

Welcome Spring!

The arrival of warmer weather changes the landscape completely. Animals come out of hiding and hibernation while trees and flowers bloom anew.

The spring season can be an exciting time for naturalists and lovers of the great outdoors because they can immerse themselves in the sights, sounds and smells of nature. But for many people, spring also marks the start of allergy season and spending time outdoors can become downright uncomfortable for them.

The American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology says nasal allergies affect approximately 50 million people in the United States. Allergic diseases, including asthma, are the fifth most prevalent chronic diseases among people of all ages and the third most common in children. Allergic rhinitis, or hay fever, can occur in spring, summer and/or early fall. People who experience hay fever often can attribute their symptoms to sensitivity to pollens from trees, grasses, weeds, or airborne mold spores.

No two allergy sufferers are alike, so medications that may work for one person may be only mildly effective for another. Many medications can cause side effects, which may be just as frustrating as the initial allergy symptoms. Treatments may target sneezing and itching but fail to clear up congestion. Drowsiness, dry mouth and nasal irritation may be side effects of common allergy drugs.

People who want to avoid allergy medication can look to natural remedies to alleviate their symptoms. Whether used

alone or in concert with traditional medicine, these remedies may make spending time outdoors more pleasant.

· Try probiotics. Probiotics, those friendly bacteria that reside in the digestive system, can do more than just treat an upset stomach. Naturopathic doctors say that probiotics also can influence the immune system and may help strengthen its response to common allergens. Since probiotics are good for replenishing healthy bacteria in the body anyway, many people may want to keep taking them once their allergy symptoms have come and gone.

· Use neti pots or saline sprays. A small amount of saltwater can rinse away allergens, such as pollen, that get lodged in the nose. These rinses also can help clear up congestion and flush out any other irritants.

· Load up on omega-3s. A German study published in the journal Allergy found that participants who ate foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids were less likely to suffer allergy symptoms than those who didn’t regularly eat these foods. Omega-3s can help fight inflammation. Drinking more fluids and using spices in cooking can help flush out allergens as well.

· Don’t forget vitamin C. Vitamin C is an immune-system booster and may help prevent the formation of histamine in the body, a substance responsible for many allergy symptoms.

Natural Ways to beat

Seasonal Allergies


Story by EMILY ROEBUCKNOW & THEN CONTRIBUTOR

When you pull up to the main entrance at the Berlin Grande Hotel, and look down on the farms and surrounding countryside cascading into Berlin, you

are entering into a warm welcome that begins with the smiling, hospitable staff and is focused on going beyond guest expectations.

There is an ambiance to the Berlin Grande created not only by the appreciation for the simple things in life but also by the friendly atmosphere that is there from the moment a guest walks through the doors.

While guests may initially choose this particular hotel for the convenient location and its proximity to Berlin, they will likely come back again and again because of the friendly staff and excellent service. Perhaps it will be the atrium and gardens in the center of the hotel, the falling waters from the entryway fountain, the warm cookies at the front desk or the Bee Kind lotions that will win you over, but whatever it may be, there is always something there to make each guest experience unique.

“I’m a firm believer in first impressions,” said Berlin Grande

Hotel General Manager, Doug Burgess. “When you walk in the door we want there to be something special that happens for each guest.”

Personalized service from the staff means they are trained to know that people are coming here for just that. The Berlin Grande is a four story, urban style hotel with 78 rooms and suites. All rooms and suites feature a microwave, refrigerator, coffee maker and a locally made mattress with plush bedding.

The mattresses at the Berlin Grande are a favorite feature and are hand made locally by an Amish craftsman located just up the road.

With Starbucks in every room and an expanded breakfast buffet which includes waffles, sausage and gravy, fresh cut fruit and cinnamon rolls, the Berlin Grande offers a variety of ways to help guests get off to the right start each morning.

“We want to go beyond what a guests expectation would be,” Burgess said. “Our philosophy revolves around offering people a room that is equal to or above what they would be sleeping in at home.”

Berlin Grande HotelA LASTING FIRST IMPRESSION

’’ I'm a firm believer in first impressions. When you walk in the door, we want there to be something special that happens for each guest.

The Berlin Grande Hotel has four large water softeners for the facility, allowing them to have softened water for all the rooms. There is also an indoor, heated, salt water purified swimming pool and whirlpool.

Views from the outdoor atrium look out onto the trees and hillsides of the surrounding fields and forest, displaying the surrounding foliage and skyline at its best. The location is also a draw for local tourists since the hotel is just steps away from Berlin, a main hub of the Amish community, allowing guests to take a scenic walk and reach Main Street in minutes.

All guests receive complimentary high speed internet access and the Berlin Grande Hotel is a non-smoking facility. Check in time is at 3 p.m., check out time is at noon and the Mini Grande Snack Shop is open 24/7 with free coffee, refreshments, apples and bananas stocked for guests in the lobby round the clock.

“People who stay here are not just staying for the Berlin Grande,” added Burgess. “They are staying here for everything that is happening in our area.”

The front desk staff is able to let guests know about local festivals and attractions and each guest will receive an envelope with coupons and freebies, such as passes for parking and different area attractions.

When the leaves change, as they are beginning to do, the Berlin Grande will have many visitors coming into the area. A special they will have running from now until the end of 2014 is that if you book Sunday you get Monday’s stay at half off the price.

All rooms have a balcony and for the pet parents looking to book a room there are also three pet-friendly rooms available.

What sets the Berlin Grande apart most is the staff. They work together in a guest oriented fashion, knowing that a warm smile and pleasant demeanor go a long way in relating to the travelers who come through the front doors each day.

The Berlin Grande also has a conference room available for business meetings, seminars and small guest receptions, reunions or parties.

This year the Berlin Grande Hotel was one of the top ranked properties on Expedia, having been chosen as an Expedia Insiders’ Select hotel for 2014. Expedia Insiders’ Select is an annual award, recognizing the very best hotels available in the Expedia global marketplace, as judged by the experiences of Expedia customers.

Based on nearly 2 million guest reviews submitted annually, The Berlin Grande Hotel was one of only 650 winners worldwide. The hotel has been identified by Expedia customers as consistently delivering superior services, an exceptional guest experience and value. Earning a place on the Insiders’ Select list is a testament to the hotel’s ongoing commitment to excellence.

The Berlin Grande Hotel was also a winner of the Certificate of Excellence from TripAdvisor for 2014. This is awarded to accommodations that consistently achieve outstanding reviews on TripAdvisor.

There is much to be appreciated at the Berlin Grande and no detail too small when it comes to making a memorable stay even more special for each guest. From the fireplaces to the artwork and décor created by local craftsmen, there is something special waiting for everyone to discover. For more information visit www.berlingrandehotel.com.

PREVENTING OSTEOPOROSIS

HEALTH

Osteoporosis is a disease of the bones that occurs when a person loses too much bone, produces too little bone or both. When a person has osteoporosis,

his or her bones become brittle and can easily break.While osteoporosis can affect anyone, women over the

age of 50 are especially susceptible. In fact, the National Osteoporosis Foundation notes that a woman’s risk of breaking a hip due to osteoporosis is equal to her risk of breast, ovarian and uterine cancers combined.

In spite of the potentially harmful effects of osteoporosis, studies indicate that only 12 percent of people with osteoporosis have had a bone mineral density, or BMD, screening, which is the most reliable diagnostic test for osteoporosis. A big part of that is likely because osteoporosis does not always produce any recognizable symptoms, meaning many people may have the disease without even knowing it. Many women are first diagnosed with osteoporosis or bone loss after suffering a fracture, but there are steps women can take to lower their risk of developing osteoporosis.

· GET ENOUGH CALCIUM AND VITAMIN D. Calcium helps women develop strong, healthy bones, while vitamin D protects the bones and is necessary for absorbing calcium. The human body cannot produce new calcium, so it’s essential that women get the recommended amount of calcium from their diets. Women 51 and older are advised to get 1,200 milligrams of calcium daily, and foods like low- and non-fat milk, yogurt and cheese are great sources of calcium. Women can get vitamin D from sunlight; certain foods, including fatty fish such as salmon and tuna; and vitamin D supplements.

· EAT BONE-HEALTHY FOODS. The National Osteoporosis Foundation notes that recent research has found that blueberries, olive oil, soy beans, and foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids may promote bone health. Women also should know that even though certain foods may contain calcium, that does not necessarily make them ideal for bone health. Beans, for example, contain calcium, but they also are high in phylates, which can interfere with the body’s ability to absorb calcium. Soaking beans in water for several hours before cooking them can reduce their levels of phylates.

· WATCH WHAT YOU DRINK, TOO. It’s not just foods that can contribute to osteoporosis. The beverages women drink also can affect their risk. Caffeine can decrease calcium absorption and contribute to bone loss, so drink beverages like coffee and caffeinated tea and soft drinks in moderation. Heavy alcohol consumption also can cause numerous negative side effects, not the least of which is bone loss, so women should only drink alcohol in moderation.

· UPDATE YOUR FITNESS REGIMEN. Women can strengthen their bones by including some high-impact weight-bearing exercises, which include dancing, hiking, jogging and jumping rope, in their fitness regimens. In addition, add some muscle-strengthening exercises, such as light weightlifting, to your routine. Yoga and Pilates also can make valuable additions to an exercise regimen, helping to improve balance and reduce the risk of falls, but women should discuss such exercises with their physicians before diving in, as some of the positions in yoga and Pilates may not be safe for older women at heightened risk of osteoporosis.

More information about osteoporosis can be found at www.nof.org.


Mother’s DayTribute

We asked our readers to share with us their favorite memory with thier

mother along with a snapshot of the two of them. Here are some of the Mother’s Day wishes we recieved:

One of my favorite memories of my Mother is getting all dressed up for Easter Mass. We had grand outfits and Mom always got herself a

coursage (a gardenia). Another hobby she and I enjoyed together was raising canaries, which we

would show at Bird Shows and have good results. Although my mother (and father) were both blind, they enjoyed many things in life and I have very fond memories of this.

ccc

wwww((avvv

The photo I am sharing is of my mother and I at Christmas in the Colonies. I hand wove baskets for the show. My mother loved going to the

shows with me. She sewed most of my costumes.When there was time, she would tell me stories of her

childhood and how she met my father. I am the oldest of seven children. She passed away four and a half years ago but the memories we made will remain with me forever.

Easter Traditions

The Memories Remain


Our mom is a dreamer, a storyteller and a writer. Perhaps because she is so creative and mercurial, her attention to detail, especially while driving, has always been somewhat erratic.

Traveling with my mom often turned into unpredictable adventures. We were her captive audience in the automobile. She entertained us with her wit, wisdom and silliness. We regularly got lost and found ourselves wondering aloud, “Mom, where are we going?” Her reverie interrupted, she would suddenly look around, and join us in the wondering, and wandering.

Even now, we will go anywhere with her, just for the merriment of it.

(From L-R)Traci Hanger-Hoffman, RD Hanger, (their mother) Donna Fetzer, Stephanie Seach

Our Mom the Storyteller

One of my favorite memories with my mother was the day we went on a walk through the rose garden at the

OARDC in Wooster when I was about 16. We took lots of pictures and shared lots of laughs. This picture is from that day and I will never forget it! I love you mom! Happy Mother’s Day!

Mother’s Day is the one day each year when men, women and children across the country gather to honor the mothers in their lives.

Though it can be challenging to find new and unique ways to display your affection for Mom on Mother’s Day, rest assured that sometimes the simplest concepts are the ones mothers most appreciate. This year, look no further than the following ideas for some inspiration as you aim to make this Mother’s Day as special as possible for the mother or mothers in your life.

· GIVE THE GIFT OF SWEET TREATS. What better way to highlight mom’s sweetness than with some delicious treats made just for her? Whether you decide to whip up some homemade confections in the kitchen or visit a nearby store for something decadent, mom will no doubt appreciate the chance to indulge on her big day. Moms who prefer cookies and portable snacks will no doubt enjoy Pocky and Péjoy biscuit sticks. These tasty snacks from Gilco are dipped or filled with popular flavors, such as chocolate and strawberry, and are now available with green tea cream. Pair with a cup of tea, coffee or whichever beverage mom prefers to complement her favorite treat. Pocky is available in most grocery stores, and can typically be found in the Asian food section.

· MAKE A MEAL TO REMEMBER. Mom deserves a night off from dinner detail, and while dining out is an option, a homemade meal may come across as more

intimate and heartfelt. Thanks to kitchen appliances that make it easier than ever to prepare gourmet meals at home, you can now make restaurant-style meals in your kitchen without sacrificing restaurant-quality taste. For example, new tacook Rice Cookers from Tiger Corporation do more than just perfectly steam rice. They also incorporate synchro-cooking to cook two different items at once. Present mom with her favorite Asian-inspired poultry-and-rice dish or use the cooker to easily bake bread or steam a side of vegetables. Pair the meal with her favorite wine and make sure you handle all the cleanup.

While mom waits for dinner to be served, a soothing cup of tea can set the tone for a relaxing evening. The Tiger Hot Water Kettle boils water in seconds. With three temperature settings and a de-chlorination cycle for removing chemical tastes and odors, the kettle allows mom to quickly enjoy a cup of her favorite brew. These kitchen essentials are available at Bed, Bath and Beyond.

· PLAN A MOTHER’S DAY PICNIC. Busy moms may look forward to a break from the bustle of daily routines. An afternoon picnicking outdoors can be the ideal way to enjoy a special Mother’s Day. Plan an easy menu of foods that have portability. It’s easy to transport hot or cold foods when you have Tiger Stainless Steel Thermal Wares on hand. A refreshing fruit salad can be kept cool for about 8 hours. If mom prefers pasta primavera, the thermal container can keep it warm and ready until it’s time to enjoy.

t’s so much more than makeup,” said Sue Overmier, an Independent Mary Kay Consultant in Wooster. After 35 years of wearing their products proudly

and making other women feel beautiful in their own skin, Overmier has found her experiences to be nothing short of enriching.

“Someone asked me once, ‘don’t you ever get tired of doing this?’ And I said, ‘no, never’ because every time you sit down with someone and make her feel more gorgeous, you have affected her life,” she said.

Overmier grew up in the North Canton area with two brothers and two sisters. “We had a little mini farm. Dad had a cow and some pigs and some chickens,” said Ovemier. Sue and her family were like true pioneers as they made their own butter and grew their own fresh produce. Sue can remember learning to can and freeze produce and preparing fresh picked corn with her family.

“My dad would gather bushels of food and we would all get together and prepare it,” said Overmier. She fondly remembers her time being surrounded by her family growing up.

BUILDING BEAUTIFUL WOMEN INSIDE AND OUT

She met her husband in the Canton area and found herself moving around quite a bit due to his job as a sales manager. They eventually landed in Wooster where they have made their home.

Mary Kay was introduced into her life by her “very best friend.” “Everything she did, I did,” said Overmier. “She got started in the business and talked to me for about a month about it.”

She had been contemplating joining her friend in this new venture when she saw a special on Mary Kay featured on the popular TV show “60 Minutes.” Overmier described that at the time, Mary Kay was “just a little teenage company” and “60 Minutes” was planning to do an exposé on the company.

Mary Kay’s motto was always, “God first, family second and career third – in that order everything works and out of that order nothing works.” Overmier remembers Morley Safer asking Mary Kay, “Aren’t you afraid that you’re using God?” It was Mary Kay’s response that had Overmier sold, “No,” she had said. “I pray that he uses me instead.”

“It just touched a chord in my heart,” said Overmier. “I called my best friend and said do whatever you need to do to get me started.”

LOCAL

SPOTLIGHT


Taking a moment to reflect on her life, she never realized just how much her childhood activities and school interests would align with her new career path. “It’s really interesting when I think back on it. My mom had one of these old fashioned train cases and I used to save empty boxes and pretend I was going up and down the street selling things,” said Overmier.

She remembers looking through a magazine and coming across something she could sign up for and sell. After getting permission from her mother, she set out to the streets again, this time with an actual product.

In high school, she was told that her strength would be in architecture. “I thought, I don’t want to build houses,” she said. “But in my work I do line and design and that kind of thing so it is really architectural in a way because I look at people’s faces (Their eye shape, nose shape, etc.”

“So I realized, I really did fulfill what my strength was in a different way,” she added.

Starting into the Mary Kay business was a big leap for Overmier because she knew very little about the product. “I had never used the product, I didn’t know the jars were pink and I had sensitive skin so I didn’t know if I could even wear the product let alone sell it,” said Overmier.

To top it off, Overmier shared that she was really shy. She would get so nervous when it came to meeting people and giving presentations until a fellow director pulled her aside and shared some words of wisdom with her. “She said if I would quit worrying about myself and see what I could do for others, I probably would never be nervous again.”

It was in that moment she learned that “excitement and fear are like train tracks. You can fall off either way, and they just kind of run side-by-side,” Overmier said. The knowledge that fear and excitement could co-exist in a good way helped her to overcome that nervousness.

Since working for the Mary Kay company, Overmier has had the privilege of empowering many women, both young and old, to be their best selves. With everything from a

simple facial to teaching women about the importance of image, Overmier has enjoyed every minute of her journey.

Being a strong supporter of Every Woman’s House, Overmier was able to secure a grant for around $20,000 from the Mary Kay company to be awarded to the Wooster foundation.

She also had the opportunity to travel to the Philippines and hold a skin care class for 500 Filipino women. Not having enough supplies for each woman to have their own makeup tray, the women kindly passed their makeup trays

Stick with one brand or product line. Each product line is chemically balanced to work together. Switching up products from different companies could cause “chemical warfare.”

Keep makeup brushes clean. They collect oils, dirt, makeup and bacteria from free radicals in the air.

Mascara should be replaced every three months. Pumping the wand in and out of the tube forces air and bacteria in. Sue suggests putting the wand and turning it which will get you more than enough product.

to one another, sharing their product with six other women. “They were such loving and kind people,” said Overmier.

“It was one of my favorite experiences in the company. I was there to affect and help them and they affected and helped me. I didn’t have any guess that it would be that heart-warming.”

Returning from that trip, Overmier knew that she was a part of something much more than selling makeup. “We

A young man was walking through a supermarket to pick up a few things when he noticed an old lady following him around. Thinking nothing of it, he ignored her and continued on. Finally he went to the checkout line, but she got in front of him.

"Pardon me,” she said, "I’m sorry if my staring at you has made you feel uncomfortable. It’s just that you look just like my son, who I haven’t seen in a long time.”

"That’s a shame,” replied the young man. "Is there anything I can do for you?”

"Yes,” she said. "As I’m leaving, can you say ‘Good bye, Mother!’ It would make me feel so much better.”

"Sure,” answered the young man. As the old woman was leaving, he called out, "Good bye, Mother!” As he stepped up to the checkout counter, he saw that his total was $127.50. "How can that be?” he asked, "I only purchased a few things!”

"Your mother said that you would pay for her,” said the clerk.

have the opportunity to be givers,” she said. After a friend lost her house in a fire, Overmier packed up a small bag of makeup and other cosmetics to bring to her.

“My husband asked me, ‘why are you bringing those things?’” To which Overmier quickly responded, “because she is a girl!” And the first thing her friend did when Overmier arrived with her bag of goodies, was put lipstick on.

“Women are women, it doesn’t matter where you go,” said Overmier. Providing women with the resources to make themselves feel beautiful is what empowers them.

“I also volunteer at care centers,” said Overmier. In February, she held a hot lips contest with the elderly women at a local care center. After applying bright red lipsticks, they each kissed a piece of paper and the group voted on who had the “hot lips.”

One of the ladies in the group commented on just how much better everybody looked with their lipstick. From skin care to aromatherapy and makeovers, “they just love getting dolled up,” said Overmier. “It’s just something that I can do to make them feel better. They love how they look and they love how much better everyone else looks too,” she added.

Over the years, Overmier has also put together image classes for businesses, teenagers and even sixth graders.

By demonstrating what not to wear, she can give people a visual of what is appropriate and inappropriate for work or school.

“I had one of my daughters come out wearing an inappropriate outfit and then come back dressed appropriately,” she said. People were just amazed at how much different a person can look based on their attire.

For young kids and teens, it can be scary trying to navigate the school fashions and develop that confidence. Showing them how to be fashionable yet appropriate is important to create a positive image. “Sometimes young girls need someone other than their mom’s telling them what’s appropriate,” she said.

On top of making herself successful in the workforce, Overmier had to learn the importance of balance in her home life. When she married her husband, he brought three children to their family and she brought four.

Her kids were very involved in many different activities and she attributes her success in life to Mary Kay’s rules of “faith first, family second, and career third. It allowed me to weave my life around what everyone was doing,” she said.

“It’s about so much more than makeup,” said Overmier. “We are building women, we are empowering them and helping them feel better about themselves.”

“What I like about Cleartone is the people are very warm and hospitable. they treated me like I’m important. Julie fi t me with hearing aids that have made a wonderful difference in my life.

My wife and I are getting along much better because she isn’t having to repeat everything. It’s also great to hear and understand conversations and not pretend to get jokes. I appreciate the fact that at Cleartone they keep in contact with you and work with you until the hearing aids are exactly right for you.”
