Silva died on June 18 after complications during surgery to correct a hip injury sustained during a struggle with a shop- lifter resisting arrest in February 2015.

Diggin’ In: Grow What You Eat in the Garden, and Even What You Often Toss Out in the Kitchen

By Kathy Van Mullekom Daily Press (Newport News, Va.) Vegetables and fruits are fun to grow and good to eat — and adventurous to regrow from kitchen scraps. Here’s how to get the most out of your edible garden and even what you used to toss in the trash. Regrow Kitchen Scraps At Brent and Becky’s Bulbs, a recent class focused on grow- ing more edibles from kitchen scraps. “Many fruits and vegetables will grow from the parts you prefer not to eat,” says Denise Hutchins, spokeswoman for the national mail-order and on-site retail garden center in Glouces- ter, Va. — www.brentandbeck- ysbulbs.com. Items such as lettuce, celery, bok choy, fennel and green on- ions can be grown in water, ac- cording to Hutchins.

By Taylor Goldenstein Los Angeles Times TECAMACHALCO, Mexico — Noe Trinidad Chavez sat at a small card table gutting zucchi- nis with a metal corer knife, pre- paring them to be stuffed with meat and cooked into platillo a la jardinera, a traditional meal eaten by Sephardic Jews. The 56-year-old, a native of the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca, was born and raised Catholic. He had never met a Jewish person in his life until he was 10, when he ventured off to Mexico City for work. There he got a job helping Jewish families with day-to-day needs, such as cleaning and cooking. Now he’s the owner of two Jewish food shops, including this one that’s no more than 6 feet by 14 feet with a lime-green awning adorned with a Star of David. The store’s unlikely name:
