(NAPSA)—Finding a fun way

to say Happy Holidays to the

youngsters on your list can seem

more like child’s play if you heed

a few hints.

1. First, remember toys should

be fun. Get a toy the child can

enjoy right away, not one he or

she will grow into. A toy that’s too

advanced can frustrate a child.

Toys should help the child learn

about himself and the world

around him while enhancing his

self-confidence, social skills, cre-

ativity or physical abilities.

2. Next, be sure the toy is safe.

Read the packaging to learn the

age range for which the toy is

intended, how to use the toy, and

whether an adult needs to super-

vise or participate.

3. Consider the child’s special

interests and abilities, even if

they go against expected gender

or other roles.

4. Any electrical toys should

carry the UL (Underwriters Labo-

ratories) seal of approval. Include

the proper number and size of bat-

teries with a toy that needs them.

5. Look for non-toxic paint,

smooth edges and parts that can-

not be pulled off and swallowed.

6. Consider games the whole

family can enjoy. A number of new

interactive games for PCs, Playsta-

tion and/or Game Boy Advance are

available that feature characters

children love and parents trust.

These nonviolent, educational and

enjoyable games are rated E for

Everyone. They include:

•

Watch For These Great Video Games For The Whole Family

Give youngsters the gift of

creative play that helps develop

ingenuity with a number of excit-

ing new games.

(NAPSA)—Your grandmother

may have called it “rapini,” but

you will call it “wonderful.” Won-

derful because it tastes great, is

easy to prepare and

is packed with vita-

mins A and C and

other nutrients.

Once found only at

the Italian greengro-

cer, broccoli rabe is

now a regular in

many supermarkets

across the nation.

Broccoli Rabe (pro-

nounced “rob”) is a beautiful, dark

green, leafy vegetable. It has clus-

ters of green flower heads similar

to broccoli, but much smaller.

Choose bunches with small stems

and tightly closed flowers, and get

ready for a unique taste experi-

ence.

Preparing broccoli rabe is as

easy as:

1. Rinse and trim

⁄4 inch from

bottom of stems.

2. Cut stalks crosswise into 2-

inch pieces and drop them into

salted (optional), boiling water.

3. Cook for 1-2 minutes and

remove with slotted spoon.

4. Sauté the blanched broccoli

rabe in a little olive oil and as

much garlic as you like for 3-5

minutes until tender. Add a few

dried red pepper flakes if you like

your food on the spicy side.

I like to prepare extra and have

it on hand in the fridge for other

dishes like:

GREAT PIZZAS

Top a pizza shell with sautéed

broccoli rabe and a little fresh

mozzarella cheese.

WORLD CLASS SANDWICHES

Pile sautéed broccoli rabe,

sliced tomatoes, and thinly sliced

ham on crusty bread.

SUPER SALADS

Garnish room temperature,

sautéed broccoli rabe with cherry

tomatoes and shaved Parmesan

cheese.

MARVELOUS MASHED

POTATOES

Chop sautéed broccoli rabe into

small pieces and stir them into

mashed potatoes.

The robust flavor of broccoli

rabe adds pleasure to meals and

as part of a diet rich in colorful

fruits and vegetables can help pro-

tect against many forms of cancer,

heart disease, diabetes, obesity

and high blood pressure.

There is overwhelming evi-

dence that people who eat 5 or

more servings of fruits and veg-

etables every day reduce their risk

for many chronic diseases. 5 A

Day can reduce the risk of cancer

by 20 percent. Take the 5 A Day

Challenge. You can do it. Enjoy

the great taste of fruits and veg-

etables as well as their impressive

health benefits.

Penne With Broccoli Rabe

6 quarts boiling, salted

(optional) water

1 bunch Andy Boy Broccoli

Rabe

⁄4 cup olive oil

⁄3 cup slice kalamata olives

4 large cloves garlic, peeled

and sliced

⁄2 teaspoon red pepper

flakes

1 pound penne pasta

Prepare broccoli rabe as

noted in steps 1, 2 and 3.

Reserve water to cook the

pasta. Heat a large skillet over

medium heat. Add olive oil,

olives, garlic and pepper

flakes. Cook and stir until gar-

lic is transparent but not

brown, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Add broccoli rabe and

⁄4 cup

of the reserved water and con-

tinue to cook and stir until the

broccoli rabe is just tender,

another 3 to 5 minutes. Mean-

while, add pasta to reserved

boiling water and cook just

until tender, about 6 to 8 min-

utes. Drain. Add pasta to broc-

coli rabe mixture and toss to

mix well.

Broccoli Rabe

Old World Taste For Modern Times

✄

(NAPSA)—With weather fore-

casters predicting yet another

blustery winter, now is the time to

plan how you’ll keep your drive-

way and sidewalks snow-free.

To help you prepare for the

pending blowing and drifting,

MTD Products Inc has teamed

with Patrick Campbell, managing

director of Syracuse University’s

Carrier Dome, to create these sea-

sonal snow-removal tips. Averag-

ing more than nine feet of snow a

year, Syracuse, New York, is

America’s snowiest city. And,

Campbell oversees the snow

removal from the parking lots and

sidewalks surrounding the Dome.

When the flurries start to fly,

Campbell advises:

Add a Little Power

Clearing snow around your

home doesn’t have to be backbreak-

ing work. The crew that reports to

Campbell relies on more than a

dozen pieces of power equipment to

get the job done. Although many of

us swear by a trusty shovel or

broom, adding power equipment to

your snow-clearing arsenal can

help alleviate heavy lifting and

speed up the snow removal process.

A dependable snow thrower won’t

break the bank, either. Durable

units start as low as $350.

Choose the Right Tool

Whether you have a few inches

or a few feet of snow to clear, be

sure to use the best tool for the

job. Campbell’s crew relies on

more than twelve heavy-duty

trucks to clear the 2,000 parking

spaces surrounding the stadium.

A smaller fleet of snow throwers

clears snow from the Dome’s 14

entrances. Your snow removal job

might be smaller, but still impor-

tant to you and your family.

For clearing tight spaces, con-

sider the new Yard Machines

Snow Buster

™

. This compact snow

thrower, as light as a snow shovel,

is perfect for patios, decks and

short walkways. The Buster

adjusts to throw snow in all direc-

tions, and its sturdy design can

help clear even deep snow.

For larger projects, choose the

Yard-Man E295 single stage snow

thrower. This unit boasts a 21”

clearing width and can grab up to

11” of snow in a single pass. With

its seven horsepower, four-cycle

engine, there’s no need for messy

gas and oil mixing in the freezing

cold. The unit uses the same fuel

that is pumped into your car at

the gas station.

If you’re clearing a longer drive,

add more power. With a 26” clear-

ing width, the Yard-Man H5C3F

two-stage snow thrower can handle

a snow depth of more than a foot

and a half in a single pass. Power

steering makes for easy maneuver-

ability and push-button electric

start, halogen headlight and heated

handles all add comfort to even the

worst of snow-clearing conditions,

day or night.

Take a Pre-Storm Checkup

Just as you need regular check-

ups to remain healthy, so does

your power equipment. After the

equipment has been sitting idle

through the spring, summer and

fall, be sure to review your

owner’s manual and perform any

recommended maintenance. Fresh

gasoline, a proper oil level and a

new spark plug can make the dif-

ference between an easy or diffi-

cult start to your winter mainte-

nance schedule.

“Equipment that is cared for has

a significantly longer lifespan than

those just thrown into duty,” insists

Campbell. “Maintenance and pre-

season checkups allow us to use our

equipment year after year.”

Layer Up

Whether you are shoveling or

using a snow thrower, you need to

dress appropriately. The Syracuse

snow crew stays warm, even in

the worst conditions, by dressing

in layers. Wearing multiple layers

and removing wet clothes immedi-

ately upon returning indoors will

keep you warmer as temperatures

plummet.
