Chicken Savoy is simple: Cut-up chicken rubbed with a handful of garlic, hard cheese, and herbs, then roasted in a screaming-hot oven and splashed with vinegar, which sends aromas of schmaltz and spice right up to your nose. A dish found only in northern New Jersey, its devotees are as idiosyncratic as its birthplace.

Most of us have a notion of what a small town is like — a place with a population of around 2,000, like Mayberry, North Carolina for instance. But during the 1970s I knew a small town named Lago Vista... with a population of 900. A place where everyone truly knew your name and what you were up to.

Unlike most students, this fourth grade dude opted for a moody evening sky. I love how well it works with this haunted looking castle. I recently discovered that if I need something, all I have to do is ask. For instance, I totally underestimated how much glue we would consume, er, use in the art room this year and only ordered one gallon. When that well ran dry, I simply sent out a school-wide email and within hours I had enough glue to put back together all of the dishes I've managed to break over the years. Thank goodness! My dishwasher is simply devouring those styrofoam plates! This is also how I managed to acquire the four million toilet paper tubes we used for this castle building project. The only slight draw back to asking for stuff: you just might receive far more than imagined (shoot me an email if you'd like to become the proud new owner of six garbage bags of toilet paper tubes! They make great gifts -- the expression on the recipent's face is always one of pure confusion which I like to interpret as joy). Because our castle was apart of our study of Germany, I also incorporated some of Grimm's Fairy Tales into the mix. This young artist dude obviously was inspired by Rapunzel. Okay, I'm dying to ask the artist about the story behind this drawing. Just why is the knight in shining armor high tailin' it out of town? Did he find out just how high maintenance those Rapunzels can be? "Climb up my hair, now braid my hair, make that a french braid, ouch, stop pulling, that hurts! Climb down my hair and get outta here you big ape!" This artist had his work on display at our local art museum, The Frist Center for Visual Arts. Pretty sweet. My mom once taped my drawing to the fridge. Okay, I taped it to her fridge. Just exactly how where these amazing castle pieces created by fourth graders, aside from a gallon of glue and a ton of tubes? Well, lemme tell you: Like I said, this project was a study of castles in Germany. We focused on Schloss Neuschwanstein (where you can see a super brief history here) and the landscape of Bavaria. During our first couple of art classes, we talked color theory and sky painting. 2. Next up: Cloud painting. We use a bristle brush to create the cloud texture with an emphasis that clouds have a flat bottom (hey, just like the art teacher!) and a fluffy top (ha! art teacher wishes). I also chat about showing space by painting the clouds near the horizon smaller and have them increase in size as they climb up the page. 3. After a big fat hairy chat about the landscape of southwestern Germany, we tackle the land. The students were given three pieces of 18" X 6" paper in the following colors: white, light green and green. They were instructed to crumble each piece, smooth it out, and rub water based oil pastels over each. Then each piece of paper was given a stroke of water with a paint brush to help blend the oil pastels. I have found the Crayola Portfolio Oil Pastels work best for this. 4. Once those were dry, each of the three papers were torn lengthwise. Some students opted to create three-dimensional mountains. This was done by taking a small torn piece of paper, coloring it heavily in oil pastels, laying it on the mountain and smearing the oil pastel from the paper to the mountain. From there, the land was glued to the sky painting. 5. After all of that landscaping, we were finally ready for our castle building. I kept the directions very basic because I was curious to see what the students would come up with. What I did tell them was to cut a slit up the back of the tube and fold each cut line about 1/4". This would be where the glue would go to attach to the landscape. This is also how the gnomes were glued down in my project posted last week. 6. For the top of the castle, short cuts were made and every other one was folded down. Easy. 7. The kids came up with the idea of the draw bridge. When one got the idea to glue a "chain" to hold the bridge, the rest just had to do the same. In case you mustache, this is Mustache Kingdom. 8. Here's how they were shaping up after a couple of days. Once glued down, they were ready to be painted. 9. Students were to paint a base coat onto their castles. I offered them black paint but a handful wanted something a little more colorful. And sparkly. What's a castle without glitter, after all? 10. After the base coat was applied, students sponge painted gray paint onto their castle for a rock like texture. When one student used the back of his paint brush to create bricks, the rest of us all had a "why didn't I think of that?!" moment. Yes, that's a flying PopTart/Taco/cat-with-a-rainbow-shooting-out-it's-butt thing. Not sure if that's from some cartoon or imagined. Most likely the effects of glue consumption. 11. Once castles were complete, the real fun began. Our castle either had to have a flag and/or a shield. After a chat about Grimm's Fairy Tales, I encouraged the addition of characters to the scene. Those that decided to not include characters and finished early wrote stories about their kingdom. I'm kinda on this kick where I add that super fine glitter to all of the paint. You can see that shine in this pair of castles. These kids have the funniest imaginations. I love their silliness. Last photo, I swear! This little amazing artist had the genius idea to add puffy paint vines to her castle. I'm rather smitten with her dragons. And there you have it! Many moons, tubes and a gallon o' glue later, you've got some of the coolest castles in all of Tennessee. Now, that I've got all the glue a girl could ever want, I'm thinking of sending out an email asking for coins. Tell me what you think of this: "Dear Teachers, The students will be using loose change. Would you mind sending any and all pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters to the art room? Thank you!" With all these generous teachers of mine, this outta easily cover my Spring Break vacay to Daytona Beach. Art Teachers Gone Wild, here I come!

GORGEOUSLY ILLUSTRATED In this newly, and gorgeously, illustrated edition of the classic Swedish folk tale, mischievous Nils is shrunk to a tiny size by a gnome and carried across Sweden by a flock of geese to their summer home in the far North. Through many perils and exciting adventures, Nils wins the respect and love of the geese and finally returns home, a changed boy. The Wonderful Adventures of Nils is truly an engaging, exciting and beautiful story about acceptance, courage and resilience. Meet a grumpy gnome, talking geese, a pesky fox, dancing cranes, statues that come to life, cities that appear and disappear, a noble raptor and more in this fun adventure book. The engaging chapters are short enough to maintain the attention of a five or six year old during a read aloud for story time, but the story is long enough to keep your nine or ten year old reading through the night. They won’t want to put it down! The hardcover version is accompanied by colorful, gorgeous illustrations, a map to plot the trip of Nils and the geese, and backmatter on Selma Lagerlöf, who may even make an entrance as one of the characters Nils meets along the way! This is a beautiful, oversized hardcover edition. SOFTCOVER VERSION The softcover has vintage illustrations by a different illustrator and includes a second book in one. Interestingly, it was originally commissioned by the Swedish National Teachers' Society to teach introductory geography to young Swedish schoolchildren. It was the perfectly engaging story of Nils and his flock of geese on many adventures across Sweden’s significant geographical and historical sites. Told in a series of narratives, these adventures demonstrate this Nobel-prize-winning author's skill at defining the sublime in simple, everyday existence. Much of Selma Lagerlöf's work is rooted in her childhood experiences at her ancestral home, "Mårbacka." In her Memories of Mårbacka, she recounts the flight of one of Mårbacka's ganders who joins a flock of wild geese and returns during the next seasonal migration, proudly bringing new family and friends to share the domestic trough as the inspiration for her story. ENVIRONMENTAL APPRECIATION The emergence of these childhood impressions coupled with adult wisdom suggests the appeal of the adventures of Nils to both children and adults. Family and household staff were a source of entertainment and amusement; the imaginative enchantment of storytelling was a main diversion. Of the many concerns in these adventures still appropriate today is that of the environment expressed by the wild goose: "If you have learned anything at all from us, Thumbietot, you no longer think that the humans should have the whole earth to themselves," . . . "Remember you have a large country and you can easily afford to leave a few bare rocks, a few shallow lakes and swamps, a few desolate cliffs and remote forests to us creatures, where we can be allowed to live in peace." This combined edition, from 1917 translations of the two adventures, is sixth in a series of reprints from Penfield Books of the works of Selma Lagerlöf. *THE STORY OF NILS IS A STAFF FAVORITE DETAILS The Wonderful Adventures of Nils Great as a family or bedtime read aloud Written by Selma Lagerlöf, the first woman to win a Nobel Prize in Literature.
