W arm w eather, hot ch ili bring out the crowds for cookoff

BY MATT JACHMAN OBSERVER STAFF WRITER

The chili gods were smiling on Plymouth on Sunday. Blessed with sunny, warm fall weather, and dodging, by one day, the derailment of a train car that could have posed big traf­ fic headaches had it happened Sunday, the 15th annual Great Lakes Regional Chili Cookoff in downtown Plymouth was a well- attended success, organizers said. “We had a beautiful event. We had great support from the busi­ nesses in town,” said Annette Horn, board president of Great Lakes Chili Inc., the nonprofit that runs the festival. Whenever the festival enjoys good weather, Horn said, people like to say it was the biggest crowd ever. This time, however, Horn thinks that really was the case. “The city was just packed,” she said. “The weather brought out anyone who wanted to come to the event,” Horn added. “It didn’t keep anyone, obviously, away.” Accurate crowd estimates are hard to come by, but some pther Pete Buks stirs a pot of chili during Sunday's Great Lakes Regional Chili Cookoff.

Some 130 motorcycles were dis­ played in the annual motorcycle show, a record. • There were 44 red chilis at the festival, 23 green, or verde, chilis, and 21 salsas. • An estimated $30,000 or more in proceeds will be donated to Habitat for Humanity of Western Wayne County once bills are paid. The Miracle League of Plymouth, which is raising money to build a baseball field to accommodate children with disabilities, raised nearly $1,700 through parking donations and a motorcycle ride. Colleen Cannon, the owner of TranquiliTea, a tea shop on Ann Arbor Trail, said the festival was good for her business — better, even, than past chili cookoffs, especially last year’s, which was hampered by rain. “The weather was just amaz­ ing and people were out here in droves,” Cannon said. Cannon had planned a tea-tast­ ing event for her regular custom­ ers, and found many festival- goers wanted to participate as well. “We got a lot of new customers on that day,” she said.

COMMUNITY VOICE OUR VIEWS Plymouth officials, who are looking to save city revenue, are trying to decide between retaining a traditional fire department with firefighter/paramedics or going to a so-called public safety department, in which police officers would be trained to do firefighting and basic emergency medical care. Which would you prefer in your community?

We asked this question outside the U.S. Postal Service station on Penniman in downtown Plymouth. Calm er heads must

prevail in fire talks

The Plymouth City Commission wasted little time acknowledging the fact it can no longer afford to run fire services the way they’ve been run since signing an agreement with Plymouth Township, voting unani­ mously Monday to terminate the agreement effective December 2011.

s the weather turns cooler, soup is a delicious and healthful way to warm up. From homemade to prepared varieties, nourish­ Aing soups also can satisfy your hunger by making you feel full longer. Wendy Bazilian, DrPH, MA, RD, author of The SuperFoodsRx Diet, recom­ mends choosing soups packed with flavorful “SuperFoods” like beans, lean chicken or turkey, broccoli, spinach, tomatoes — and especially spices and herbs. “Using spices and herbs does more than just add flavor to your favorite soups without added calories or sodi­ um. They are also concentrated sources of natural antioxidants, with levels compa­ rable to fruits and vegetables, including many of the SuperFoods,” Bazilian says. “With just a dash, pinch or sprinkle of spices and herbs, you can turn your favorite soup into a flavorful ‘super soup.’” Whether you’re cooking up a batch of a hearty, homemade soup on the weekend or just looking to add healthful twists to prepared soups, spices and herbs are a better-for-you swap for traditional soup toppings such as croutons, cheese or sour cream — adding flavor without extra salt, sugar or fat.

Stir favorite spices and herbs into low-fat plain yogurt, about 1 tablespoon for each serving of soup. Try turmeric for lentil or split pea soup, oregano for black bean soup and ground cinnamon or ginger for butternut squash or pumpkin soup. • Popcorn makes a fun garnish for soup. Try sprinkling hot popcorn with spices such as curry powder, paprika or ground red pepper.
