"If you care, leave it there" is the motto that you should live by if you find young wild animals in your yard.
Advice from the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection on what to do if you find young birds, deer or other wild animals in your yard: Spring and summer are busy times for people and animals. Many animals are setting up territories, building nests, or finding den sites to give birth and raise their young. At the same time, people are spending more time outdoors and the chances are greater that someone may come across a young bird or mammal that may appear to be orphaned or injured. In situations where young animals are found, keep in mind it is normal for many animals to leave their young alone for long periods of time, so your help may not be needed. In all likelihood, the adult is nearby watching and waiting …

This puff pastry appetizer is filled with all the delicious flavors reminiscent of an Italian antipasta dish.
My friend Barbara made this yummy appetizer when the neighborhood girls got together for our book club evening. We all "oohed and ahhed" over it. When she told me it was pretty easy to make and you could even make it ahead of time, I was sold. The nice part about this recipe is you can serve it a couple of different ways. If you were having a cocktail party, slice it into bite-size squares and you have yourself one easy dish that requires no forks or knives and one you could serve at room temperature — a hostess' dream. If you are holding a fancier dinner party, you could serve this as a first course appetizer on a bed of greens. Cut it into larger squares and serve slightly warm. Either way, your guests will love it. Barbara's Antipasta (…

Celebrity Apprentice, 9 p.m., NBC And the winner is … In a million years I would not have pegged Arsenio and Clay Aiken to be the finalists. Right? Or certainly that snot Aubrey to have come in third. Which is why we love the Apprentice! I am picking Clay to win.

Another food drive is slated for June
Last Saturday's food drive sponsored by the letter carriers from the local post office garnered 5,500 pounds for the Hockanum Valley Community Council's pantry, HVCC officials said. The total represents 1,000 pounds more than last year. "For this, we are very appreciative," HVCC's Heidi Bearse said. Bearse said she is not sure how long it will last because more than 800 families are using the pantry each month. The pantry on Naek Road is giving out approximately 3,500 food items each week so what was collected might last two weeks, HVCC officials said. The next food drive is scheduled for the Stop and Shops in Vernon and South Windsor on June 9 and 10.
