Each book in the series is a year- long process of getting to know the state and her people. So far, we have completed Arkansas, Minnesota, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Virginia and Washington, and it’s always an adventure discovering the next state. My work is so much fun that if I didn’t make a living at it, I would never believe it’s a job. Our goal with the Eat & Explore books is that you experience each state like never before…. That you get to know the heart of the state—just as we do—as you explore the flavors that make the state special and discover the state’s communities, celebrations, and destinations that are waiting for your enjoyment Illinois, nicknamed ”the Prairie State,” has so much to offer. It’s marked by farmland, forests, rolling hills and wetlands. Chicago, one of the largest cities in the United States sits on the shore of Lake Michigan and is famous for its skyscrapers like Willis Tower and Tribune Tower. While 3 presidents were elected while living in Illinois, Abraham Lincoln, Ulysses S. Grant and Barack Obama, only one president, Ronald Reagan, was actually born and raised in Illinois. He was elected while living in California. There is much to love about Illinois, and the nearest and dearest things are those that take me back to my childhood. Like the fact you can find a brass statue of Popeye in Sugar Park (page 123) overlooking the Mississippi River. Chester, Illinois, home of Popeye creator, Elzie Crisler Sega, has an Annual Popeye Festival every September to honor the beloved Sailor Man. Burl Ives was born in Jasper County, which is featured on page 135. Burl Ives has been one of my favorite stars for years. He was both a singer and a star in movies like Summer Magic with Haley Mills and is well-known as the voice of Sam the Snowman in Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. No one has a voice as famous as Burl Ives, in my opinion. Eat & Explore Illinois • 7 In Metropolis (page 97), where heroes and history meet on the shores of the Ohio River, you can tour the Superman Museum and visit the 15-foot bronze statue in the middle of Superman Square. While there, you may want to take a walk through the underwater Boeing 727 airplane. Because one person does not a team make, I must recognize my awesome co-workers at Great American Publishers. Thank you Heather Bowman and Victoria Renegar for your dedication and for giving this book wings. Brooke Craig and Diane Rothery thank you for the leadership. Christina Jo Campbell, Christy Campbell, Tory Hackett, LeeAnn Leach, Tasha Monk, Zak Simmons, Nichole Stewart, and Daniel Wyndham you all work together to make this book possible; thank you. But most of all God is our driving focus; without Him nothing is possible and I am thankful for His hand in this book. My special thanks goes to the special man in my life, Richard Shaw. Thank you for putting up with my bad attitude when the book’s not going exactly as planned and thank you for sharing the good days when we are traveling states to meet, greet and sign books. (Take my word for it, he’s awesome.) Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to my daughter, Sheila and her husband Roger, the owners of Great American Publishers. You always have the faith and words of encouragement to help me through each day as I try to make each thing I touch and do in my life be a glory to God. Family means everything. Sheila and my son Mickey along with their families—Roger, Nic, Ryan, Shelbie and Trace, Frankie, Brooke, Bryce, and Morgan—are my blessings and highest praise I give to God. I am thankful too for each of you who buys the book, cooks the recipes and visits the places featured.

Are your muscles sore from that hard workout you did? Do you struggle with arthritis or chronic pain? Let your mind and body take a vacation for an hour. Float away from your worries and experience the equivalent of four hours of sleep in one hour of flotation. Flotation therapy is an experience like nothing else.

Float and relax in an 8x6-foot tub filled with ten inches of water and 1,600 pounds of pharmaceutical-grade Epsom salt making it impossible to sink.

  • Thermal Behavior Characterization of a Sugar-Based Model System and Commercial Confections Across the Stages of Sugar Cooking
    THERMAL BEHAVIOR CHARACTERIZATION OF A SUGAR-BASED MODEL SYSTEM AND COMMERCIAL CONFECTIONS ACROSS THE STAGES OF SUGAR COOKING BY MELISSA WANG THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Food Science and Human Nutrition with a concentration in Food Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Adviser: Professor Shelly J. Schmidt Abstract The stages of sugar cooking, although long-existing and widespread in the confection industry, are lacking in thermal behavior profile descriptions, which are crucial to confection functionality. Thermal behavior parameters, such as the glass transition temperature (Tg), are indicative of confection material structure and textural behavior. Tg plays an important role in governing the quality and shelf life of sugar-based confection, and is influenced by moisture content, formulation, and other factors. This study aimed to connect thermal behavior parameters to the stages of sugar cooking. Thus, the objective of this research was to investigate the thermal behavior of the six stages of sugar cooking, as well as representative commercial confections from each stage. A model sugar-based confectionery system was developed and representative commercial confections belonging to each stage of sugar cooking were selected. The model system consisted of a 70:30 ratio of sucrose to corn syrup and a 70:30 ratio of solids to moisture. To investigate the thermal behavior of the stages of sugar cooking, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), moisture content, and water activity analyses were conducted for the model system and representative commercial confections. The average Tg midpoint of the model system increased from thread to hard crack stage, corresponding to loss of water from increased cooking time and temperature.
