BACk RIBS AISLE FOUR! PORk We've hit our friends at Greaves up for a couple features with Al Fresco in mind, and they are....(fanfare now).... Sweet Relish For your hot dog and burg. in the 500 ml size and it will be featured at $5.99 each (Reg. $7.49) Chili Sauce This is not Doreen's, but pretty darn close, in the 500 ml size as well. Feature will be $5.49 each (Reg. is $6.99) Salad Beets These guys are in the 500 ml size as well, and I know from shopping habits, they are our golf pro's fave. Feature is $5.49 as well. (Reg. $6.99) We'll also have a feature on Efferve Sparkling Lemonades. This comes from France, and it's in 750 ml bottles. I'm thinking that a splash of Grey Goose might jack this up a bit! (Reg. $6.99 ea.) Save $1.00 this week. And moving over to the deli, there are a couple sliced items that we've arranged a feature on. The first will be Serrano Ham, a Spanish version of Prosciutto. You'll get it thin sliced, and it's great Al Fresco fare. The second item will be our Slow-Roasted Strip Loin. What I do with this is lay it out on a plate that's a bit warm, drizzle it with good olive oil and balsamic freshly-ground These are one of my top-two fave Mangoes, and the season for them pepper and sea salt, (and take it with me to another room so I is just underway. We bought size 9's this week, so don't have to share...) and perhaps make a bit of horseradish they are a good size, and they are ripening nicely aioli as a condiment. It's darn good! Both these items will be for your eating pleasure. EA. featured at $4.99/100g this week. We'll have our back ribs on sale this week at the meat counter, and hopefully we'll have enough. I say this because we've run out of the meat feature a bit early the last couple of weeks. What makes our back ribs so good? First, we buy more marbled pork that streakiness makes them more tender and juicy. Secondly, we don't have that insipid little tail hanging from one end (you would normally pay full price for it if you shopped elsewhere). Thirdly, our pork is not 'seasoned', which means that it's not cut from pork loins which have been injected with water and phosphate to make them juicier (just imagine the thinking behind that), and lastly, our price is very competitive because we cut our own pork. So think ribs this week -- perhaps with our Montgomery Inn OFF Sauce -- or any other. We have lots to choose from! THIS WEEk Reg. $9.95/lb OUTSIDE! ....WHAT'S HAPPENIN' Although our inventory has dwindled a bit, we're still good on Hanging Baskets and Patio Pots, and If have a particular need, they can be made to order. Coleus abounds, as does very nice Ivy and Maidenhair Ferns for the shade. Hibiscus is in good supply, in some pretty vibrant colours. Tuberous Begonial Hangers are coming along nice, and they are good in half sun, priced at $12.95 each. There are quite a few patio pots of Tomatoes yet, and we'll be clearing them at $5.00 each. Coming soon will be a few more perennials for those doing garden renos with some spots to fill. 7 | Stouffville Sun-Tribune | Thursday, June 9, 2016 MANGOES HADEN $ 25% STAFF PHOTO/NICK IWANYSHYN Former Stouffville resident Charmaine Mueller is mourning the death of her daughter, Lauren.

"Never in a million years did I think they were going to tell me what they did," the former Stouffville resident explained, sipping her tea, wind rustling her curly locks. The news York Regional Police officers shared was dark enough to break any mother's heart. Her "beautiful" daughter, Lauren, 25, had died after her pick-up truck left the road near the bend at Old Yonge Street and Mount Albert Road in East Gwillimbury, just before 11 p.m. on May 29. Although unable yet to speak about the details of Lauren's crash -- only days clear of the Celebration of Life where 200 people gathered to remember her -- Charmaine wanted to open up about the kind of person Lauren was -- a nurturing, fun-loving, big-hearted soul. The first item will be our Kentucky Cole Slaw. The twist here is red and white cabbage, carrots for vitamin B, celery seed and parsley.

Moved to Stouffville, Newmarket Lauren was born at St. Michael's Hospital in 1990 and grew up in Scarborough with her older brother, Garrett, before moving to York Region in the early 2000s; first living in Stouffville before settling in Newmarket. As a baby, Charmaine said she remembers Lauren growing frustrated, if she went too long getting mom's cuddles. "I remember, she'd grow fussy, so I'd pick her up and put her on my hip and do my housework with one hand," Charmaine reminisced. "She would always put her cheek against mine. She wanted love and I wanted to give it to her. It made me so happy." Prior to moving to Newmarket, Charmaine recalled her daughter shocking everyone present at one latenight gathering with talents no one ever knew existed. "We were sitting around playing guitar, we were laughing and singing and playing, but Lauren was hesitant to join in. She didn't know anyone too well, but she had a guitar her daddy had given her," she said. "She See CRASH, page 31. Next on the cooking line, we've made Cream of Asparagus Soup.
