Artist of the month for November
Maureen Carter - Artist Bio
I will forever consider myself a student of Art. I love the infinite variety there is to learn about creating images – I’ll try almost anything! In order to keep my creative juices flowing I have taken workshops with some inspiring and highly successful artists like Rose Edin, Fabio Cembranelli, Ted Nuttall, Judy Morris and Gerald Brommer – to name only a few. I’m a “workshopjunkie” and feed my quest for knowledge and inspiration with travel. I have attended classes in Montana, Myrtle Beach, New Orleans, Ireland, Switzerland and many local workshops.
My style is a combination of subtle realism with an inclination toward abstraction. I love to explore how color, light and texture can be manipulated to create an interesting image that leaves room for interpretation. My favorite media is Watercolor but I also enjoy acrylic, collage and mixed media. I love it all! I am the Treasurer of the Crooked Creek Art League and a member of the SC Watermedia Society. My work has won some awards and I do enjoy the validation of winning -‐ but for me, the best reward is creating something that even impresses me!

NATIONAL CANINE LYMPHOMA AWARENESS DAY
|
National Canine Lymphoma Awareness Day is observed annually on November 7th It is a day to educate and create awareness about canine lymphoma.
Well-known and respected dog agility trainer and competitor, Terry Simons, was devastated when his “heart and soul” dog was diagnosed with Lymphoma in 2011.
An educated dog owner, Terry did all he could for Reveille but soon discovered, even though lymphoma is one of the most common cancers in dogs, that accurate information regarding options and treatment can be elusive.
Terry connected with professionals that helped him choose the best path for his beloved companion.
Reveille not only competed in dog agility throughout her treatment but thrived, having the best agility year of her career.
|
|
When Terry chose to let Reveille go, one year and a week after her diagnosis, he knew he was making the right decision for her. Grief can do strange things, it can destroy, and it can inspire.
In the case of Reveille, the realization that he may lose Reveille at any time inspired Terry to form CLEAR (Canine Lymphoma Education Awareness and Research),
a cancer foundation dedicated to providing information, resources, and research into the devastating disease.
Reveille’s legacy is to ensure that dog owners know their options, thereby being empowered advocates of their four-legged family members.
CLEAR – Canine Lymphoma Education Awareness and Research is dedicated to increasing awareness of canine lymphoma. Through education, we empower dog owners and through research, we look for a cure to this devastating disease.
It is all about education and awareness, which is available in the award-winning documentary on canine lymphoma, My Friend: Changing the Journey (Best Documentary Feature – Los Angeles Movie Awards and Best Educational Documentary – Bare Bones International Film and Music Festival).

NATIONAL MEN MAKE
DINNER DAY
|
National Men Make Dinner Day is observed annually on first Thursday in November. This is the day for men to take charge in the kitchen and cook for their loved ones.
|
|
This day was created for the men who do not know their way around the kitchen and are not familiar with cooking appliances, as well as for the women in their lives who need a break.
Men need to be aware that there is a list of rules that must be followed, some of which include:
- The main meal must include a minimum of 4 ingredients and require at least one cooking utensil other than a fork.
- The man goes shopping for all necessary ingredients.
- Clean up as you go.
- Aprons are optional.
For a list of complete rules, see the above-mentioned website.

NATIONAL BITTERSWEET CHOCOLATE
WITH ALMONDS DAY
|
This intriguingly specific Day celebrates a particular combination of flavours – dark, bitter chocolate and toasted almonds.
This is one of the oldest recipes involving chocolate known in the English-speaking world, featuring as the only chocolate dish in an 18th-century cookbook.
|
|
This festivity exists mainly as an idea circulated on the internet.
It is sponsored by the National Confections Association, and celebrated and encouraged by organisations such as food.com, a site which aims to encourage cooking and the appreciation of food by holding various different food days.
Both the tannins in dark chocolate and the various fatty acids in almonds have many health benefits, various studies have shown. Bitter Chocolate with Almonds Day encourages a delicious and nourishing dessert, which contributes to health and long life. Celebrate by dipping blanched almonds in the best dark chocolate you can find, and serving to your friends with
a glass of red wine!
