Local Store Owners Share Their Picks for Top Gifts for Her this Holiday Season

by Leave a Comment

Are you wanting to support local entrepreneurs this holiday season by shopping small businesses for gifts? You’re in luck because I have three amazing places for you to shop for the women in your life as well as what you need to know to choose the perfect gifts once you’re there. I spoke to the business owners at each location and got you top-notch recommendations for their most universally appealing items sure to please any gift recipient, as well as all the details on each store’s holiday hours, and special seasonal events and services. Read on to find out all you need to know to shop local and delight the special women in your life this December.

The Foundry (Special Pop Up Location in Fig Garden Village)

Holiday Hours: 10am-6pm, Sundays 11am-4pm

The Foundry is well-known in Clovis for its beautifully curated and displayed selection of clothing, accessories, children’s items, home décor, and gifts. This holiday season, Fresno shoppers can enjoy a special Foundry Fresno Pop Up location next to Madewell in Fig Garden Village on Shaw and Palm! The Pop Up (which feels like a fully decorated and artfully arranged permanent store) offers an impressive selection of holiday décor, home goods, children’s items, women’s clothing, jewelry, serving ware and gifts. I asked Marketing Director, Taylor, to point me in the direction of three of the most popular items for gifts in the store. Here’s what she recommended:

Capri Blue Volcano Candles – these candles have a cult following and smell like lightly sugared citrus and tropical florals. “We can barely keep them on the shelf,” explained Taylor, “everyone loves them!”

Barefoot Dreams Robes – these robes, though a bit of an investment, are one of the softest, cuddliest and most comforting items a person could possibly wear. You’ll have to touch one to understand it for yourself, but anyone who receives one as a gift will definitely feel pampered and cozy.

Locally Made Jewelry – The Foundry carries several lines of beautiful and unique handmade jewelry. Two lines that are particularly popular and universally appealing are Five and Two (who’s owner got her start in Fresno and now lives in LA) and Make Pie Not War (lovingly created in Fresno by Alana Little).  

Special Holiday Services

The Foundry can assist with gift wrapping and shipping most items purchased in-store, to out of area recipients for your convenience. The Fig Garden Pop Up will be open until December 31, 2019.

I asked owner Alexandra Register for her recommendations on fantastic gifts from some of the most popular items from her store, and she shared these three gems:

KLSD’s Be A Good Human shirt or sweater (both are unisex! Link 1, 2, 3) – with a great fit, super soft feel and awesome design, this selection is sure to bring a smile to your favorite do-gooder’s face. (Full disclosure: I fell in love with this in black and bought one for myself!)

Stronger Together women’s tee or unisex sweater – the perfect gift for those who want to rise by lifting others. 

For the Fresno Fan – an awesome Fresno poster. “This is a custom colorway Fresno poster designed for us by local artist Thomas Wayne Mason,” says Register. (So cool!)

Fuel Your Workout: What To Eat Before & After

by Leave a Comment

Two 2 Kg. Blue Hex Dumbbells on White Surface

Before you workout, you should plan on having a snack or meal 1-3 hours in advance. You may have to experiment to see which time frame feels best with your body. If you are exercising early in the day, a big meal might not be best. For those exercising later in the day, a snack 30 minutes before your workout will suffice, or have a well-balanced meal and then work out two hours later.

Don’t forget to drink water before working out. There’s no one-size-fits-all method of determining fluid needs during exercise, but you can drink two cups of water two hours before exercising and one cup 10 minutes before working out. With this amount of water, you will minimize dehydration, which can cause low energy and muscle cramps. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends that we drink roughly 2 to 3 cups of water during the two to three hours before your workout and drink about 1/2 to 1 cup of water every 15 to 20 minutes during your workout.

When we’re hungry, our bodies go into survival mode and draw protein from muscle, rather than our kidneys and liver. When we lose muscle mass, you can slow down your metabolism and it’s harder to lose weight. Your pre-workout snack should include carbs. When we eat carbs, they break down into glucose, enter our muscle cells and give us fuel to exercise. If you’re strapped for glucose during your workout, you will be tempted to quit early. More blood goes to our muscles during exercise, leaving less for digestion. Peanut butter and jelly is a great option because it gives you the energy your muscles will require during exercise. The peanut butter adds protein which will leave you feeling full. Protein is especially important for those doing strength-training exercises, such as lifting weights. Our bodies need protein to repair any micro-tears, which occur during strength-training exercises. Another pre-workout snack option is oatmeal with low-fat milk and fruit or a fruit-and-yogurt smoothie. Oatmeal is a superfood because of its nutrients, including complex carbs, vitamin B1, iron and fiber. Eating oatmeal before a workout is smart because its complex carbs digest slowly, so you will receive a steady release of sugar into your bloodstream. Oats are rich in iron, which helps your cardiovascular system work at optimal levels, as well as vitamin B1, which helps convert carbs into energy. The fiber in oatmeal helps you feel full throughout your workout and prevents binge-eating after your workout. Yogurt is easy on the stomach and provides protein, which will prevent muscle breakdown that occurs during exercise. Some might only consider trail mix for hikers, but it will provide the energy needed for exercise and is easy on the stomach. Almonds provide protein and heart-healthy saturated fat. If you’re short on time, grab a banana that has easy-to-digest carbs and antioxidants, which will prevent muscle cramping. In addition, bananas are full of B vitamins that assist with energy metabolism and muscle-loving minerals like potassium.

Grilling Kebab

After exercise, our bodies are ready to refuel and rebuild muscle tissue, so it’s important that you eat within an hour of finishing. It’s important to restore glycogen stores, enhance recovery, increase muscle protein synthesis and decrease muscle protein breakdown. Research has proven that your body’s ability to refill muscle stores decreases by 50 percent if you wait to eat just two hours after your workout compared to eating right away.

Studies have found that ingesting protein maximizes the body’s ability to recover after exercise. Some carbs that will provide your body with the right nutrients for adequate recovery include sweet potatoes, rice, pasta, and dark, leafy green vegetables. Protein recommendations include cottage cheese, protein bars, tuna or eggs, and good fats include nuts, trail mix, and avocado. Cottage cheese is high in protein and loaded with the best types of amino acids, which aid the creation of muscle after a workout.

In addition, it’s also important to drink water after your workout, because we lose water and electrolytes through sweat. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends that we drink roughly 2 to 3 cups of water after your workout for every pound of weight you lose during the workout.

It’s important to keep in mind that when it comes to eating and exercise, everyone is different. Pay attention to how you feel during your workout and adjust your pre-workout snack accordingly. How do you feel after your workout? Let your experience dictate your post-exercise eating habits.

Clovis Neighborhood’s Synchronized Holiday Lights Display Grows to 39 Homes

by Leave a Comment

What started as an ordinary holiday lights display in a Clovis neighborhood has turned into what is believed to be the largest synchronized neighborhood light show in the World.

Santa Claus Lane is located on Norwich, Maine and Indianapolis Streets in the subdivision located on the southeast corner of Gettysburg and Locan. This year the light show has expanded to feature 39 homes. 

“Santa Claus Lane is a high-tech, synchronized light show,” said Deb Toews, founder of Santa Claus Lane. “The Christmas lights on all the participating homes dance in beat with music.  Approximately 500,000 LED lights provide a spectacular show for people of all ages. We offer music for all ages and tastes.”

Santa Claus Lane opens Friday and runs nightly from 6 p.m-10 p.m. through December 27th, rain or shine.

“You can walk or drive Santa Claus Lane,” Toews said. “ Most people say the event is best when walking down the sidewalks of the neighborhood.”

Santa Claus Lane is pet-friendly and on Friday and Saturday nights food trucks will be on site selling a variety of treats.

If you are driving, visitors can tune their car radio to 98.5 FM and hear the music inside their cars.

“Santa Claus Lane is the only large Christmas light display that is high tech and uses a single computer to make all the lights dance to the music,” Toews said.  “As far as we are aware of, Santa Claus Lane is the largest synchronized residential light show in the world!”

In 2008 Deb and her husband Terry started decorating the outside of their home for Christmas. After seeing a synchronized light display online, they put in the time to create their own. In 2012, their next-door neighbors joined in on the fun. In 2015, the whole block joined in and it has grown from there.

A small group of neighbors formed the non-profit, Clovis Festival of Lights at Ladera Ranch, INC. The group is responsible for organizing Santa Claus Lane and helps support a local food pantry, as well as other non-profits in the area.

On Saturday, December 14th Santa Claus Lane will feature Red, White and Blue Christmas. The event honors law enforcement, firefighters and members of the military. Donations from that evening will benefit the Leon S. Peters Burn Center, San Joaquin Valley Veterans Organization and the Fresno Police Chaplaincy. 

“We feel that not only do we bless our community with this event, but in turn receives blessings from them,” Toews said. “Hearing all the praises coming from our visitors and how this is their new family tradition warms our hearts and keeps us wanting to continue.”
