Kyle stands proudly with teammates Allie Brinton and Ludwig Mueller, along with coach Andy Robins. This moment marks the perfect conclusion to an incredible career at FSC. During his time as a Moccasin, Kyle helped secure a conference championship, earned a national title, and was one of only three swimmers of the 2024 class—along with Allie and Ludwig—to attend nationals all four years. It’s a testament to not just Kyle’s hard work and determination, but to the incredible bond between an athlete and coach, and the legacy of success they built together.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The top of the podium at the national championship meet was not the end for Kyle. He went on to represent Malta in the 2024 Olympics, finishing 41st in the world in the Men’s 50m Freestyle. He is seen here with former Mocs teammate Ludovico Viberti who represented Italy at the Games.     Kyle now swims for the Univerity of Alabama where he is working to earn a Master’s degree in accounting.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>This magnificent dragon, which extended up to 20 feet long and 12 feet tall with a nearly 16 foot wingspan, was a massive undertaking led by Nick Folkes. Students learned how to shape PVC for the skeleton, sew the skin, mold foam and more. They incorporated electronics in the eyes and mouth that helped bring the dragon to life, and Folkes built a mouth mechanism using bike brakes, as well as a miniature smoke machine inside the head that could blow smoke with a synchronized set of LED lights to simulate fire. The fully assembled dragon weighed roughly 200 pounds, and it was a team of young women from the Harrison dance and theatre departments who were puppeteers of the larger than life character.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 106 - The Making of the Magic Behind the Beloved Lakeland Christmas Parade</image:title>
      <image:caption>“It started off as just, hey, it’s a great idea, we’ll get together and make it happen. But if you would’ve told me that it would have evolved into what it is today, I would’ve thought maybe [it would be possible,] he says. “It took off because of two constants—the Junior League and the City of Lakeland—and when you’re lucky enough to have the kind of partnership we have, good things are going to happen.” Furr has just as many nice things to say about the plethora of public servants who make the parade possible each year. “Our police and fire departments are wonderful, and they seem to love the parade as much as anyone else,” she says. “As I’ve begun to watch the parade now from the sidelines, just like everybody else, you see a different side of them, where you see them joking with kids and you realize it’s a strong partnership with a lot of communication and understanding.” When asked what first comes to mind when he thinks of the parade, Donahay keeps it simple: Santa Claus, fireworks and the massive crowd. The festivities that his children once enjoyed were the building blocks for what his grandchildren now get amped up for each December. One of his favorite aspects of the annual event is seeing the creative ways organizations, schools and businesses design floats to match the theme, which this year is “Christmas at Swan Lake”—a nod to some of Lakelander’s favorite landmarks. “It just blows me away how good some of them are. Medulla Baptist Church comes to mind; they have a good float every year that you know they threw together in a week with really hard work, and then some of the pro folks that we have like Chick-fil-A, [do a great job], too,” Donahay says. While the Christmas spirit is front and center at the parade, the Junior League’s commitment to education and literacy is ever present.</image:caption>

It’s no surprise that on the menu you’ll find a very Florida-esque Cuban on Ciabatta and the Scarpa’s Italian, a cold sandwich that pays homage to the owner’s family. Jessie Scarpa is a third-generation restaurateur and her parents, Glenn and Ashley, are the founders and owners of Scarpa’s Italian, which is located on the same property as the cafe.</image:caption>

Be sure to make a reservation (and get the code to unlock the door which is disguised as a vending machine) for the full, speakeasy experience. According to the owner Jian Zhang, who has lived in Lakeland for more than 20 years, everything–even the simple syrup at the bar–is made from scratch. Zhang’s previous business experience includes taking over China 1 when his parents retired and opening Jade Fox Lounge, both of which are located in Highlands Plaza near La Gran Muralla.</image:caption>

When the Latin supermarket and restaurant was purchased by the current owners, Roberto and Maria Peralta, six years ago, the Peralta’s worked hard to keep it as authentic as possible. This new location, which features the same delicious horchata, tacos birria, and homemade desserts as the original Mega Mercado, is sure to be a favorite of college students and local families alike.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“I always love to photograph in thunderstorms however rarely do due to safety. On this evening I was rested and ready as there was so much lighting going on and didn’t seem to be too much rain. However, when I arrived downtown the rain was fierce and showed no sign of letting up. Since I made it out with my camera, I was hunkering down to wait it out! The toughest part was sitting in my car for almost 2 hours waiting for a break in the rain with my car engine turned off and no A/C turned on lest my camera would fog up immediately when I left the car.  Finally when the rain eased, I grabbed the camera and tripod and set up shop near the Polk Theater hoping to get a shot of the Theatre sign and a Bolt. I have a Lightning Trigger, however left it at home as I thought I had it with me. I took a few hundred shots and was fortunate enough to catch one with a nice lightning strike.” Shot on Canon R3 w/Sigma 35mm f/1.4; settings- 1/400 f/5.6 ISO 2500 @andyglogowerphotography</image:caption>

      <image:caption>"Driving to work on County Line Road I noticed an amazing field filled with Sunflowers.  The field was owned by Fancy Farms and they were kind enough to allow me to photograph these beauties.  I would head to work early enough to spend about 30 minutes photographing the sunflowers for about 10 straight days.  I would bring a different lens most of the days to be able to catch different looks. As the sun would rise the Sunflower seemed to have so much expression and personality I couldn’t get enough of them.  I’ve so many shots I love of the Sunflowers however this is my favorite.  I’ve titled this one: Awakening" Shot on Canon R3, EF100mm Macro lens; settings- 1/2000 f/4 ISO 1000</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 92 - Good Pairings for Great Times - Diamond Crown Classic #4 with Zundert Trappist</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Diamond Crown Classic features a five-year-old Connecticut Fermented Wrapper and has full aromas of cedar with a fair share of citrus freshness in this luxurious smooth cigar. Floral aromas and a little white pepper are particularly well suited in the silky transparent texture of smoke. This pairs perfectly with a European tripel ale brewed by monks within the walls of Zundert Trappist Monastery. This beer has an aroma of caramel, herbs and spices—initially floral and slightly sweet— and its character develops from light caramel to a lovely, dry, mellow hoppy bitterness as the flavor opens.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 92 - Good Pairings for Great Times - Julius Caesar Robusto</image:title>
      <image:caption>This pairing is for java lovers. The Julius Caesar Robusto’s rich, bold and distinctive flavor comes from the especially flavorful Ecuadorian Havana-seed wrappers combined with a blend of fine Dominican binder and select Dominican and Central American filler tobaccos, carefully aged for five years. Lots of rich, coffee-laden smoke layers the palate with each puff. The bold coffee is balanced by sweet and spicy woody flavors and a savory finish. Hop Life Brewing Company out of Port St. Lucie offers up an ideal mate with a beer that uses locally roasted coffee that include hazelnut, coconut and southern pecan bourbon flavors. The coffee is cold brewed and then blended with milk porter to create a medium bodied beer with a hint of chocolate, cream and roasted nut flavor.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 92 - Good Pairings for Great Times - Diamond Crown  Maximus #5 with Cigar City Maduro</image:title>
      <image:caption>The unique and remarkably smooth, full-bodied flavor of the Diamond Crown Maximus is unparalleled, featuring the richest, hardiest and darkest tobacco from the top priming ‘corona’ of the plant. Dark and aromatic, this cigar features superb construction and a balanced profile.  It delivers pleasant notes of fresh brewed coffee and roasted nuts throughout the powerful but refined smoke. The Cigar City Maduro Brown Ale, produced out of Tampa, is a low alcohol content and moderate body drink that offers aromas reminiscent of toffee and chocolate macaroons. Semi-sweet chocolate, almond, and brown sugar flavors fill the palate but quickly dissipate into a dry, clean finish with notes of coffee grounds.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 92 - Gameday Party That Never Ends - Jessica’s Wings</image:title>
      <image:caption>INGREDIENTS 2 lbs chicken wings/drumettes 1 stick of butter 12 oz bottle Frank’s Red Hot Sauce 5-10 dashes of Tabasco Sauce (optional) Canola Oil RECIPE Add canola oil to a Dutch oven or other deep pot, until it is 2-3 inches high.  Heat over medium high heat until 350 degrees, as measured with a deep fry thermometer. When oil has reached temperature, add 10-11 wing/drumette pieces to the oil and fry for 10 minutes, using metal tongs to make sure no pieces are sticking to the bottom.  Drain on paper towels and repeat with remaining wings, making sure the oil temperature is back up to 350 degrees before adding more wings. While wings are frying, in a saucepan, melt butter and add Frank’s Red Hot sauce to melted butter.  Add Tabasco sauce, to taste if you like your wings spicy.  Once wings have drained on the paper towels, add to the sauce to coat.  Serve warm with blue cheese dressing if desired.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INGREDIENTS 1-1/3 cup milk 8 oz cream cheese 2/3 cup blue cheese crumbles RECIPE 1. Add the cream cheese and milk to a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the cream cheese begins to soften and melt. 2. Add the blue cheese crumbles. Stir often with a rubber spatula, and press down on the cheeses to help break them down so they'll melt into the sauce more easily. 3. Once the cheeses have melted, bring the sauce to a simmer until thickened, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Remove from the heat and set aside.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INGREDIENTS 2 cans San Marzano whole peeled tomatoes (yes, the brand is important!)  1 clove garlic. minced Crushed red pepper Coarse salt 1/2 stick of salted butter  RECIPE Give the canned tomatoes a good whirl in the food processor. Add a good sized pinch of coarse salt.  Heat olive oil in a pot. Once shimmery, add the minced garlic and a light shake of crushed red pepper flakes.

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 90 - Salon Spotlight - TRACY CLARK - STYLIST</image:title>
      <image:caption>Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online cracy specializes in balayage, creating vibrant customized colors and short textured haircuts for women that flatter every face shape. Her work has been featured in AVEDA’s Global Color Guide and several of her customers have been featured on AVEDA’s digital platforms.  For this shoot, she used goth edgy inspired vivid color with v-bangs, and the haircut was a modern take on the shag. The cut was performed with both shears and razors to allow the haircut more texture and movement.  Her favorite product is Botanical Repair Styling Cream. When she's not doing hair, she loves going for walks with her three pups at Bonnet Springs Park. Hair cut, colored and styled by Tracy Clark</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 90 - Salon Spotlight - SHEENA BARBER - STYLIST</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sheena Barber has been dedicated to offering amazing results to Central Florida customers for nearly two decades. She said after graduating from Traviss Technical College she began building her clientele at Salon 04 and Co. in Winter Haven, under the tutelage of owner Maryan Mathes. Barber says she is her "hair mom" and the now-retired Mathes made a lasting impact by pouring in to her when she was new to the trade. Now an experienced stylist, Barber made the move to Lakeland  with a group at The Heights Salon. She specializes in color and highlights and loves making people look and feel their best.   She chose the high definition Red-Violet color for The Lakelander shoot because it's a "vibrant and very fiery fun feel." Some of her favorite products are Pravanna Nevo to keep hair feeling hydrated and Kenra Platinum Blow dry spray that she says "cuts blowout time in half."</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 90 - #Stylish - Taylor Ard</image:title>
      <image:caption>hen Taylor Ard arrived on set she was donning a lkld girl shirt—a design popularized by her accessory and apparel company East of These. She then confidently strutted in front of the camera in a chic southern boho dress, changed into a rocker t-shirt that she cloaked in a formal black jacket, and by the time she walked out the door she was sporting a Lil’ Wayne shirt. Such is life for a mom of three boys who admits many days she resorts to the “yoga pants and t-shirt" look, but who is also the face of a company known for beautiful fabrics and classy designs. She said growing up her family didn’t have a lot of resources and she spent a lot of time shuffling the racks at Goodwill. That experience taught her how to identify diamonds in the rough and piece outfits together. She was raised in Charleston, S.C. so it makes sense that she loves boots, and she also leans into “classic things” and 70s fashion. Since the official launch of East of These in 2020, Taylor’s local profile has continued to grow, and you will often find her at Catapult and Lakeland Downtown Farmers Curb Market. But if you ask Taylor what it’s like to be seen as a local influencer, she will tell you she’s still getting used to it.” “It’s very humbling to think people view me as a style trendsetter.” @eastofthese</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 90 - #Stylish - Abdiel Gonzalez</image:title>
      <image:caption>Abdiel Gonzalez still remembers getting weird looks walking around the Florida Southern College campus in the early 2000s. He was in fact wearing skinny jeans, a trend that had not quite landed in Lakeland that Abdiel was an early adopter on. “I remember people being like, ‘What are you wearing?'” Two decades later, people might still be asking that question, but with a tone of admiration and curiosity for the Hawaiian born Lakelander who calls his fashion sense relaxed and resort inspired. Gonzalez is the business development and marketing manager for Haus 820, and he is no stranger to branding and storytelling.  As a youngster he was immersed in commercial dance and theater, and he even made an appearance in Disney commercials. He also knows the retail industry inside and out, having worked for Hollister, Urban Outfitters, and most recently, online eyewear giant Warby Parker. His extensive experience and network has drawn the interest of apparel brands over the past year-and-a-half, and he is starting to work more intentionally on his Instagram account, @abdielgonzalez. Before a recent trip to the Dominican Republic with his wife, Kristy Scott, and friends, he bought a statement-making stallion emblazoned set of pyjamas (the photos say it all) from UK brand Desmond &amp; Dempsey, whose slogan is ”from bed to barbecue.” Gonzalez said he is drawn to light fabrics, and he likes to play with volume and different width tops and bottoms to keep things interesting.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 109 - Hydrate, Brighten, Replenish - The Basics</image:title>
      <image:caption>What everyone should be doing Cleanse in the a.m. and p.m. using a gentle, sulfate-free cleanser suited for your skin type (dry, oily, combination, sensitive). Toner in the a.m. and p.m. (optional): If you have oily skin, an alcohol-free toner can help balance oil production and minimize pore size. It can also help balance the pH of the skin, making it more likely to absorb other products. Exfoliate in the p.m. (1-2 times per week):Use a gentle chemical exfoliant with glycolic acid or lactic acid to remove dead skin cells and promote cell turnover. Moisturize in the a.m. and p.m.: Consider a lightweight moisturizer in the a.m., heavier at night. Apply sunscreen in the a.m.: Use a broad spectrum product with at least a 30 SPF to prevent damage from UV exposure and prevent premature aging and discoloration. Consider blocks that include zinc or titanium oxide.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 109 - Hydrate, Brighten, Replenish</image:title>

Oily: shiny appearance especially in the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin), enlarged pores, frequent blackheads and breakouts. Feels greasy or oily to the touch. Dry: flaky, rough or tight, fine lines, redness, smaller or less visible pores. Feels tight or uncomfortable after cleansing. Combination: a mix of oily (especially the T-zone) but dry on the cheeks. Feels oily in some areas and dry in others. Sensitive: prone to redness, irritation, burning. Feels tight and uncomfortable and may react negatively to some skin care products.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 109 - Hydrate, Brighten, Replenish - A final word</image:title>
      <image:caption>It is important to also consider lifestyle factors when addressing skin health. Hydration is key, exercise promotes circulation and sweating can eliminate toxins from the skin. Limiting alcohol and smoking will improve your skin appearance, as will eating a healthy varied diet including bright colored fruits and vegetables, antioxidant rich foods (berries) and omega 3 fatty acid rich foods (fish). Limiting inflammatory foods like sugar, processed foods, dairy, and gluten can be helpful as well. In summary, putting some time and effort into skin care does not have to be complicated or expensive. Knowing what products to look for and what to avoid is key. However, not all skin is created equal and sometimes trial and error is required to find the right fix. A dermatologist can help with stubborn problems and factors that may need the help of a prescription. They can also provide samples and suggestions for your specific concerns.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 110 - Healthy With a Twist of Citrus - High Protein Lemon-Blueberry Energy Balls</image:title>
      <image:caption>Ingredients: 3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats 1/2 cup unsweetened dried blueberries plus 2 tsp, divided 1/2 cup unsalted almond butter 4 pitted Medjool dates 1/4 cup sliced almonds 1/4 cup hemp seeds 2 1/2 tsp lemon zest 6 tbs lemon juice plus 3/4 teaspoon, divided 2 tsp honey 1/4 tsp salt 2 tbs confectioners' sugar Directions: Combine oats, 1/2 cup dried blueberries, almond butter, dates, almonds, hemp seeds, lemon zest, 6 tablespoons lemon juice, honey and salt in a food processor; process until a thick paste forms, 1 to 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop or measuring spoon, scoop 16 rounded portions of the oat mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Using clean hands, roll each portion into a ball. Refrigerate the balls, uncovered, until cool to the touch, about 20 minutes. Finely chop the remaining 2 teaspoons dried blueberries. Whisk confectioners’ sugar and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon lemon juice in a small bowl until no lumps remain. Drizzle the lemon glaze evenly over the chilled energy balls (about 1/4 teaspoon glaze each). While the glaze is still wet, sprinkle evenly with chopped blueberries.

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 110 - Healthy With a Twist of Citrus - Healthy Orange Bundt Cake</image:title>
      <image:caption>Ingredients 3 ¾ cups (450g) white whole wheat flour or gluten-free* flour 2 ¼ tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda ½ tsp salt 4 tbsp orange zest (about 2 gigantic or 3-4 medium oranges) 1 tbsp unsalted butter or coconut oil, melted and cooled slightly 4 large egg whites, room temperature 4 tsp vanilla extract 5 tsp liquid stevia ¾ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt ¾ cup freshly squeezed orange juice (about 2 gigantic or 3-4 medium oranges) 1 cup nonfat milk 3 tbsp (45g) confectioners’ style erythritol 2 ½ - 2 ¾ tsp freshly squeezed orange juice Directions Preheat the oven to 350°F, and generously coat a 12-cup bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray or nonstick cooking spray with flour. To prepare the cake, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Once thoroughly combined, whisk in the orange zest. In a separate bowl, whisk together the butter, egg whites, vanilla extract, and stevia. Stir in the Greek yogurt, mixing until no large lumps remain. Stir in the orange juice. Alternate between adding the flour mixture and milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture, and stirring just until incorporated. (For best results, add the flour mixture in 3 equal parts.) Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake at 350°F for 50-60 minutes or until the top feels firm to the touch and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring the cake to a wire rack to cool completely. Once the cake has completely cooled to room temperature and just before serving, prepare the drizzle. Stir together the erythritol and orange juice in a small bowl. Transfer the mixture to a zip-topped plastic bag, cut off a tiny piece of one corner, and drizzle over the cooled cake.

      <image:caption>Jackie Morales Houghton Oil Painter Born and raised locally, Jackie Morales Houghton has passionately built her career as an abstract artist through organic relationships cultivated in the Lakeland community. As a proud alum of Rochelle School of the Arts, Jackie’s journey began as a middle school student where she quickly developed a strong desire to pursue painting. After spending a semester at London’s prestigious arts and design college, Central Saint Martins, Jackie was exposed to Europe’s elaborate community of artists––both unknown and known. This became a turning point in her career. She graduated with her bachelor in fine arts from Auburn University and later moved back to Lakeland with her husband, ready to embark on a new chapter that felt full circle for her. Today she creates eye-catching oil paintings on large canvases for a variety of clients, providing detailed insight on design for home owners. Her work is exclusively available for commissions, which in turn gives an opportunity for clients to collaborate with her on custom pieces for their space. From looking at a home’s fabrics and colors to its intricate patterns, she approaches each new project with eyes to visually problem-solve and a desire to serve her clients with excellence.  With her background from previous design centric roles, such as art director for Publix Corporate Offices and creative director for The Lakelander, she has honed her craft and continues to bring her clients’ interior visions to life. To work with her on a piece for your home, reach out to her @jackiehoughtonstudio on Instagram. The collaboration process is organic, and it’s something Jackie caters according to the visual needs of her clients. She works out of her personal home studio in Lakeland.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Mary May Witte Acrylic Contemporary Impressionism Artist Dreaming up art pieces that give a big view, local award-winning artist Mary May Witte brings inspiring contemporary impressionism to the homes of Lakelanders. Having earned her bachelor of arts at LaGrange College in Georgia, she uses her sophisticated expertise in the graphic arts to create serene acrylic paintings.  For three decades, she established her career as a graphic designer until she made the decision to focus on her artwork when her children moved out of the house. With support from her husband, she started painting in her home. Since moving back to Florida in the mid-70s, she gained inspiration for her artwork from the historic charm of Swan City’s nature life.  Placing visual focus on animals, such as birds, cows and dogs, and other outdoor scenes, she portrays everyday landscapes to commemorate the familiarity found in the places she loves most. She has also worked on still life and figure pieces that capture the essence of magnified fruits and flowers. Providing a unique visual experience, her work centers around the composition giving a simple, clean design. Clients say her work is quite calming. She has participated actively in local events for the artistic community, such as the MidFlorida Mayfaire-by-the-Lake.  One of her most popular works, “Morton,” depicts the natural beauty of our city’s beloved swans. Witte has received the honor of “Best Two Dimensional Artist” at the Old Florida Festival of the Arts in Cedar Key, Fla.  Notably, her paintings have been featured at a variety of festivals and art shows. Currently, people can find her work for sale locally at Bungalow Boutique and Gifts, 1026 Florida Ave S. You can also connect with her on her website marymaywitte.com or via email at marymaywitte@me.com. “If a painting speaks to you, you’ll find a place for it,” she remarks.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Danielle Douglin Oil Painter As a youngster growing up in St. Thomas, Danielle Douglin could often be found drawing on a notepad while situated in a pew of the church her father pastored. More than a dozen years later, Danielle could be found drawing on a notepad—except in this case, it was in the courtroom, where her mind often wandered while interning at a public defender’s office.  The 2020 Florida Southern College graduate began her collegiate career as a political science major, but her lifelong passion for art eventually won out, and she graduated with a double major in graphic design and studio art. Today, she makes a living as a Digital Studio Designer at Publix, and on the side she continues to hone her skills crafting oil paintings on large canvases—a hobby that took root from an art class her sophomore year. She loves to create bright and vibrant paintings that tell stories by fashioning vivid memories of iconic local spots she holds dear. Some of her oil paintings showcase local favorites like the Southgate Shopping Center, but others are distinctly personal, such as artwork of Twistee Treat or the Checker’s located in North Lakeland. “With Checkers…I used to remember going with my family—like my sister in her (Volkswagen) Beetle—and we’d grab fries on the way home,” she recalls. “In my paintings I want it to kind of feel like what it was like in that space…so I like to have smooth things be a little bit rough or have directional paint strokes to add dimension to my paintings.” The Volkswagen Beetle is a recurring subject in Douglin’s work. She inherited her dad’s affinity for Beetles, and she eventually purchased one herself. “In college people would be like, ‘I knew you were at Starbucks or Mitchell’s because I saw your car there,’” she says. “So I thought about how I could put a physical representation of myself into my paintings without putting myself in them—kind of like a ‘Where’s Waldo?’ thing to represent my experience growing up in Lakeland.” Douglin’s work has been featured at Mitchell’s Coffee House in the past, and those interested in purchasing her work can check out danielledouglin.com or contact her on Instagram at @danielledouglin. - By RJ Walters</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Rachelle Valenzuela Oil Painter Inspired by traditional styles and limited color palettes, local oil painter Rachelle Valenzuela fashions heartfelt, classical imagery through her lens of soft, muted tones for the home. With a sincere love for art and for people, this up-and-coming artist has dabbled in artwork most of her life. She began pursuing art full time in September 2021, and most recently took up oil painting in July 2022. She handcrafts timeless pieces that capture people, places and still life portraits in detail.  She currently studies under professional oil painter Greg Mannheimer at the Polk Museum of Art. In early summer 2020, she moved to Lakeland from Utah with her husband and two daughters. They quickly fell in love with      Lakeland’s charm and the community.  She works from her home studio here in our Swan City, and she continues to collaborate with her clients to create custom artwork that is meaningful for families and cohesive to the space they will display it in. She also describes herself as an “old soul” who is drawn artistically to “vintage elements.” She draws inspiration for her artwork from old architecture, classical music and her trips abroad, including a recent trip to Paris, France. With every piece, or “happy canvas” she handpaints, she creates artwork that include personal touches that tell part of their story. Her works feature a unique compositional variety from the intricacies of loved ones’ faces to the vibrant form of fruits and blossoms. For commission work, you can reach out to her directly on Instagram @artbychellevalenz.  “Place art in places where people can start meaningful conversations,” she encourages.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 87 - Tour of Homes - My name is Krystal Sayers and I've been servicing the Central Florida real estate market for more than seven years. I've centered my career around excellent customer service and a firm commitment to working hard, listening, and following through. I provide high quality, dedicated service to build meaningful relationships with my clients and, more importantly, I maintain those relationships through honesty and effective communication.  No transaction is ever more important than the person making it, so protecting my clients, their interests and our relationship is my top priority. These values have driven me to become a top producer at the #1 brokerage in Lakeland—Keller Williams. I love Lakeland and enjoy all our beautiful city has to offer. After almost 10 years here, I couldn't imagine raising my girls anywhere else. You can often find us walking around Lake Mirror, having coffee downtown, hiking at Circle B Bar, or wandering our newest favorite Lakeland destination, Bonnet Springs Park. As a Lakeland local and a seasoned real estate professional I truly understand and appreciate the market here. We have a little bit of everything: the comfort and security of suburban life, the fun and convenience of downtown living, the peace and freedom of the country; there really is something for every lifestyle. My love of Lakeland provides me the enthusiasm and desire to help make my home your home. Give me a call, send me a text, or email me any time. I would love to help you achieve your real estate goals!</image:title>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 87 - Tour of Homes - JP, a Florida native who moved to Lakeland in 2013, is owner of the Hive Homes Group with Keller Williams.  He works closely with clients who are interested in purchasing or selling homes, but he is also ready to help clients expand their investments in real estate. He owns and manages short-term rentals in Central Florida and advises others who are interested in being part of the rental market. JP is no stranger to moving or fixing up houses either.  JP and his wife, Meg, have purchased and lived in eight different homes—and each time they have renovated the space to leave it better than when they moved in.  Because of his professional and personal experience, JP understands what it takes to buy and sell a home and he prides himself on advising and supporting his clients every step of the way.  JP has a friendly and collaborative working style. He brings with him the expertise and support of local lenders, specialists, contractors and inspectors.  If you are looking for a loyal, experienced agent, who will go above and beyond for you and then likely invite you to join him at a Gator football game, then JP Phillips is your guy.</image:title>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 86 - Captivating Blooms - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Flowers bring life to a bridal ceremony. They signify new beginnings, shared celebration and dreams in bloom.  At many weddings, flowers are the only decorations necessary to set the tone for the day. They bring the bride’s color palette, desired mood and overall vision together in harmony. Floral arrangements are elegant and meaningful. They are also time-consuming and take an artistic hand to craft well. Luckily, Lakelanders have a variety of wonderful options to consider at any stage in the wedding planning process.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 86 - Captivating Blooms - Uli &amp; co Julie Czernek &amp; Maria Mironchuk</image:title>
      <image:caption>Julie Czernek of Uli &amp; Co. believes flowers are an integral part of the wedding experience. “Flowers bring together the color palette, the vision, the mood, the feelings,” Julie says. “Flowers are at the core of what you experience on your wedding day.” For many couples, a good florist is the only decor assistant they need: centerpieces, archways and table decor can all be done beautifully with quality flowers.  Julie is inspired by flowers thanks to her mom, Maria, whom she works side-by-side every day to arrange and create intricate floral details. Maria’s floral hobby began 15 years ago in Seattle, Washington, when she attended workshops within their community. When Maria and Julie moved to Lakeland together, they began making floral arrangements in their spare time.  One of her favorite trends right now is creating long tabletop floral “runners,” which seemingly emulate long gardens across a table.  For two years, they took orders out of their home—crafting beautiful bouquets for Mother’s Day, archways for small events, and eventually full-service florals for weddings. Today, they own an event space in Dixieland, Uliana Events, where staff put together the flowers that customers can order through checking out the company’s Instagram @uli.and.co or by emailing hello.uliandco@gmail.com. “So much time goes into the process, and every detail is meticulous, from shipping, cleaning, arrangement and delivery,” Julie says, but she believes it’s all worth it. “Flowers are at the heart of the wedding experience. They bring everything together," Julie says. @uli.and.co uliandco@gmail.com</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 86 - Captivating Blooms - Inspired Alchemy Kara Huebsch</image:title>
      <image:caption>Florida’s natural scenery is some of the best in the world. Our sprawling fields, sunny weather, and coastal beaches bring visitors from across the globe to experience it. Our tropical flowers are eccentric, too—often brightly colored and expansive, making them perfect for display at beach or destination weddings.  At Inspired Alchemy, Kara Huebsch coordinates floral orders and shipments all the way from Ecuador. She works with florists to provide tropical flowers by-the-stem, as well as ready-to-order bouquets for weddings and events. “Tropical flowers enhance the natural beauty of Florida,” Kara says, explaining that many of these flowers can be grown here, but they’re bigger and under better conditions in Ecuador. They’re also more hardy — they last longer than most wedding flowers, making shipment more efficient and cost-effective. “Flowers are just special,” Kara says. “There are so many variations. It’s beautiful to see their structure and natural art celebrated in our community.” Kara is new to the floral business. She started Inspired Alchemy in August 2022 and has been slowly building a client base since. She showcased her work for the first time alongside other local business owners at Bonnet Springs Park’s Bridal Show, and has since hosted popups at Honeycomb Bakery and the Lakeland Valentine’s Day market.  In the coming years, Kara hopes to continue the path she’s on: providing affordable bunches of bouquets for weddings, quinceaneras, and special events, and selecting flowers by-the-stem for florists.  Order your own tropical bouquet via Inspired-Alchemy.com or by calling Kara at 863.521.3004. Inspired-Alchemy.com</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 86 - Captivating Blooms - Bloom Shakalaka Laura Shannon</image:title>
      <image:caption>When designing wedding florals, Laura Shannon of Bloom Shakalaka has one strategy: get to know the couple.  In the first stage of the process, she asks the bride and groom seemingly unrelated questions — like: "What do they like to do on the weekend?" and "What kind of music do they listen to?" But she believes it’s pivotal information to craft the couple’s unique floral style.  Laura doesn’t follow the current trends, she truly attempts to create arrangements that represent each couple. Are they an airy garden stroll with lots of greenery, or a tightly bound classic rose? Will their wedding feel like a funky disco party or a quiet, intimate union? “It’s inspiring to see how florals are evolving,” Laura says, noting she often experiments with hybrid blooms and crafting bouquets into unconventional shapes. She’s fascinated by dying florals to create new colors and making increasingly sustainable installations with foam alternatives. Laura had been planning and hosting events at Ashton Events for nearly a decade when she decided to open her flower shop. She took classes, traveled and researched to learn how to create the perfect bouquets.  She noticed Lakeland was missing a modern floral-forward shop, and felt she was the right person to bring it to life. At Bloom Shakalaka, she creates floral designs for customers needing fresh, distinctive flowers for their events.  See it for yourself: Bloom Shakalaka is located inside the Joinery at 640 E Main St, Lakeland, FL.

      <image:caption>Takiyah spent 18 years in education, working with every age group from VPK students to college students, and her primary focus the past decade has been on teaching life skills and workforce development. She is also the founder and owner of D&amp;G Mixed Media Art and Design.  In her role at the Chamber she is especially excited to help address skills gaps for traditionally underserved populations and connect entrepreneurs with potentially life-changing resources. “When the opportunity arose at the Lakeland Chamber of Commerce, it was a perfect opportunity for me to be able to come and make a great impact on not just youth, but also business owners,” she said. “...I see enthusiasm and hunger for wanting to be more informed so that they can advance their business.”</image:caption>

He has lived in Lakeland for 12 years, but admits that it wasn’t until the pandemic forced him to work from home that he developed a genuine appreciation for the city.  When he learned about the Workspace Director position at Catapult he was intrigued by the opportunity to be intimately involved with the development and growth of the city by sharing his expertise and network of connections with entrepreneurs. “These are the people who are gonna give my sons awesome jobs when their dreams come true,” he said. “And as well,  just being a footnote in somebody else's story, helping somebody else's dream come true, that is such a worthwhile cause that just pulls on my heartstrings.” “...credibility also comes with a bit of persuasiveness as well, because you have to be able to articulate your vision...”</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 85 - So, You Want to Start a Business? - Ana Rivera, Semi-retired / Founder of Puerto Rican Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Polk County</image:title>
      <image:caption>Ana says she is semi-retired, but her schedule is still filled with meetings and lunches centered around helping bring sustainable businesses to Lakeland. She knows what it’s like to be a corporate leader, working for years with the likes of Marshall’s and JC Penney, and she has operated successful businesses related to fashion design and product development. When you fuse that together with the fact that the Puerto Rican native is a bold and seasoned advocate for helping guide Hispanic entrepreneurs, it’s no surprise that in 2007 she founded the Puerto Rican Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Polk County. “[The Chamber has] been able to help at least 70% of our members to start, continue and maintain their businesses here,” she said.”If you take a drive around, you know, not only Lakeland, but throughout all of Polk County, you will see on every corner, either a Spanish church or a Spanish restaurant, a Spanish barbershop, a mechanic, a dentist, etc.”</image:caption>

She is the CEO of a digital marketing agency, the founder of several business networking organizations, and she loves to help people build successful businesses.  “I feel like my existence started when I became an entrepreneur,” she said. “When I became an entrepreneur I started to realize that I had a God-given purpose and I just stepped into it, and that’s what I’m doing. “If you begin with the end in mind, the systems are gonna be what can take you to a successful business.”</image:caption>

And that fabric of you, you're sharing it with everyone that you serve, and that's something no one can take and no one can teach."</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 84 - Pick Up a Paddle - The  Accidental Addict</image:title>
      <image:caption>Kendra Schwada offered to dog sit for a friend while she and her husband, Paul, were on an extended stay in Estes Park, Colo. in 2021.  When she opened the door to her friend’s home, Kendra saw an odd shaped paddle hanging on the wall. Her friend explained it was for a sport called pickleball, and she offered to let Kendra borrow her paddles while she was out of town.  Players at the nearby pickleball courts were very friendly and willing to show Schwada the ropes, and before long the 47-year old was back in Lakeland making pickleball playing friends, finding a doubles partner—roughly 90 percent of pickleball games are played as doubles—and entering tournaments. She played softball and volleyball at Olivet Nazarene University in the late 90s, but then didn’t play any sports for almost two decades as she focused on coaching her daughters and attending their games. Now she plays pickleball every chance she gets, and she even opted to shift careers to have a more flexible schedule that allows for her to stoke the flames of her newfound passion.  “It has changed my life,” Schwada said. “I’ve made tons of relationships in the community, and since I was new (to Lakeland), I didn’t have hardly any. My best local friend is my playing partner, and it’s just been wonderful in every way.” She may not have played sports for nearly 20 years, but her competitive drive never disappeared.  Schwada and her playing partner, Lakelander Tiffany Kitchens Cook, won the first ever tournament they entered, and just last month the duo finished second in their division at the Hertz National Championship in Orlando. She calls herself fierce on the court and friendly off it. One fellow pickleballer took note of her love for the sport when he visited Lake Parker last year. He happened to be an owner of Phantom Pickleball, based out of Davie, Fla., and he was so impressed with Schwada that he asked her to become a sponsored player, meaning she dons their apparel and plays with their gear while also offering feedback on the equipment. It was a great match for Schwada because Phantom is an up-and-coming company who supports the Special Olympics—something Kendra and her husband have an affinity for.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 84 - Pick Up a Paddle - The Chemist</image:title>
      <image:caption>If Schwada represents the rejuvenated athlete and Bailey represents lifelong athletes who have fallen in love with pickleball, Trish Jenkins stands tall for everyone who grew up in a sport-obsessed culture, but never really found their place. Jenkins was one of eight siblings, and admittedly she was the least athletic in her family. Several of her sisters became physical education teachers, another was a semi-professional basketball player, and she, well she was a career chemist who once took a half-credit tennis course in college. But the 67-year-old who is married to former Publix chairman and CEO Howard Jenkins, stumbled into pickleball less than two years ago at a mobile home park in Naples, and soon after she was hooked on a sport that she calls “an equalizer” because it is inexpensive to play and creates social interaction among all demographics. “You bring your skill to the court and you socialize,” she said. “I have met people on the court who design skyscrapers in New York City, and I have met people on the court who dig ditches for graves. It doesn’t matter—we’re all out there, and it’s really fun to hear these stories and these life experiences.”  The pickleball community touched her so deeply that within months of learning the sport she proposed a plan to build Lakeland’s first private pickleball club. She and family and friends went on a whirlwind tour of some of the largest and most lauded pickleball complexes in the country as a research project of sorts. This May, a pickleball complex with 14 courts, pro shop, locker rooms, sports bar and restaurant will open at Lone Palm Golf Club. Her father-in-law and Publix founder George Jenkins founded the club in 1964, and she and Howard are part owners. Patrons at the restaurant will even be able to watch the action on the courts on their own devices via closed-circuit technology. She sees the venture as a step toward a new chapter for the club, noting traditionally Lone Palm has been a place where guys come and golf and talk business while their wives or significant others might enjoy lunch or play a game of bridge or cards.  “I think it's more of an investment in people than it is material. It's a good family building mechanism,” she said. “The club is getting a little aged, and now we're gonna be able to bring in families in a much more cohesive manner.” At the beginning, only current Lone Palm Golf Club members will have access to the new facilities, but later this year the general public will have the opportunity to become members of the pickleball club. She beams with joy when she talks about Nate Jager, a pickleball trainer and coach from St. Pete who is moving his family to Lakeland so he can become the club pro at Lone Palm. Jenkins said he has connections with some of the highest ranking pros in the U.S. and he will bring top-notch clinics and training sessions to Lakeland. And Schwada—whose passionate pursuit of sharing the sport with others mirrors Jenkins' in many ways—is slated to be the club’s assistant pro. Jenkins is also hopeful about hosting small tournaments and getting a variety of youth programs off the ground in the long run. Schwada said it will be a huge win for the local pickleball scene if Lone Palm can run high quality tournaments, but it will take a lot of attention to detail to match some of the best Florida has to offer.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Leaders Are Working to Address the Most Prominent Struggles Polk Vision is a local non-profit that brings together organizations, businesses, government and individuals to help bring positive change to Polk County. In 2021, Nutall and Holly Vida, Director of Marketing and Community Relations for Central Florida Health Care, co-chaired a task force with Polk Vision to produce a comprehensive plan with the goal of improving the quality of life of Polk County residents by addressing behavioral health needs in the community.  The 261-page report, which can be viewed in full at polkvision.com, is a comprehensive survey and research analysis of the mental well being of people in Polk County, the needs that are present and the gaps that exist to meet those needs. Diverse Data to Solve Complex Problems “One of the things that was so cool about the Polk Vision study was all the different people we talked to that don't work in behavioral health,” Nutall said. “If you go and ask all the dentists in town… what do we need to do with dental care? They're gonna have really good advice, but what about all the people that don't brush their teeth? What if we went and talked to them?” The study included the experiences and opinions of experts, but also included people who are struggling and a number of specialized, often underrepresented populations—including more than 300 incarcerated inmates. They also tapped into data and anecdotes from the child welfare system. Nutall said she can’t shake one specific comment that epitomizes why she is passionate about her work. “One comment was from a homeless youth…and it was like, ‘I don’t have mental health concerns now, but I’m sure I will soon.’”</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 81 - Dinner at George’s Club - Pan-Seared Halibut with Lemon Butter Sauce</image:title>
      <image:caption>INGREDIENTS 4-6 oz. halibut fillets, skin removed, pat dried 1 tsp salt ½ tsp cracked black pepper 1 tbsp flour 2 tbsp olive oil ½ cup heavy cream ½ cup white wine (or chicken broth) 2 garlic cloves, minced   2 tbsp capers, drained Juice of ½ lemon 2 tbsp butter Arugula Parsley INSTRUCTIONS Season both side of the halibut fillets with salt and pepper. Mix and combine flour, salt, and pepper on a plate. Coat the fillets on all sides and shake off excess mixture. On a nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Sear fillets on all sides until you have a golden-brown crust, and the fish is cooked through. This will take about 3 minutes on each side. When done, put fish on a wire rack and reduce heat to medium. Add white wine and scrape up any brown bits until it has reduced by half – this should take about 2-3 minutes. Add garlic cloves, capers and lemon juice. Melt butter and add heavy cream into the sauce and remove from heat. Place halibut on a bed of arugula, spoon sauce over halibut and garnish with parsley.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 80 - Best of Taste - Pop’s Cioppino</image:title>
      <image:caption>INGREDIENTS 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil  1 medium onion, finely chopped  1 large green bell pepper, seeded and chopped  8 garlic cloves, thinly sliced  2 bay leaves  1 tablespoon dried oregano  1 cup red wine  2 cups water  1 cup clam juice  2 (28-ounce) cans crushed tomatoes  Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper  1 pound mild white flaky fish, cut into 2- to 3-inch pieces  1 pound scallops, cleaned  8 ounces medium shrimp, peeled and deveined  18 to 24 littleneck clams, cleaned 8 ounces crab meat (lump or claw) 1 small bunch flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped, for garnish INSTRUCTIONS Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper and cook until beginning to soften, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic, bay leaves, oregano, wine, water, clam juice, and tomatoes. (Some would argue that red wine doesn’t pair well with seafood. In this application, it lends a deeper flavor to the broth and pairs wonderfully!) Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the fish, scallops, shrimp, clams, and crab meat, in that order. Let cook, covered and undisturbed, until the clams have opened and the scallops, shrimp, and fish are cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the lid and garnish with chopped parsley. Spoon into bowls and serve hot with toasted bread.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 80 - Best of Taste - Spiced Pineapple Rum Cake</image:title>
      <image:caption>For the Cake: Butter or nonstick cooking spray, for the pan 1 ½ cups diced pineapple  ½ cup chopped pecans, toasted 2 cups all purpose flour 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 (3.4-ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix 2 tsp baking powder  2 tsp five spice powder, optional 1 tsp Kosher salt 1 stick unsalted butter, softened ½ cup canola oil ½ cup coconut milk 4 large eggs, room temperature ½ cup rum 2 tsp vanilla extract For the Syrup: 1 stick unsalted butter 1 cup sugar ½ cup to ¾ cup rum, depending on your desired level of booziness  DIRECTIONS Heat oven to 325 degrees. Grease a 9-inch bundt cake pan with butter or cooking spray. Spread the diced pineapple and pecans evenly over the bottom of the pan; set aside. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, pudding mix, baking powder, five spice powder, salt butter, and oil. Mix until well combined using an electric mixer; on a medium speed setting. (Please note: the mixture should look sandy) Pour in the milk and mix together.  Add in the eggs one at a time mixing in between each addition with an electric mixer; on a medium speed setting. Then, using a rubber spatula, scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl to break down any remaining flour streaks. Add in the rum and vanilla extract.  Pour the batter into the bundt pan over pineapple and pecans. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan while you prepare the glaze. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add in sugar and ¼ cup water, stir and bring the mixture to a rolling boil; stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to simmer. Simmer for 5 minutes until slightly thickened; stir in the rum.  Using a skewer or a toothpick, create holes all over the bottom side of the cake. Pour half of the rum syrup over the cake (still in the pan) and wait for it to absorb then pour in the rest. Once the cake has cooled completely, flip the cake over onto a cake plate.  This cake will keep fresh for several days when wrapped at room temperature.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>One of the most fun shoots I have done to date was this health and beauty feature! Our team wanted all of the focus to be on the model’s face and skin, with other elements — sand, water, milk — as the backdrop. The makeup and hair team that day was phenomenal. It was a great flow. It felt very much like "America’s Next Top Model" in the studio that day. We unknowingly forgot to heat the water in the kiddie pool we brought into the studio. All three models were fully submerged up to their faces, they were shivering between takes, but they gave 100 percent as you can see in the final images. I shot each model as swiftly as possible. This cover stands out from the lot, in all the right ways.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>SPORTS There were a few challenges I had to work against for this one. One is the fact that we had to shoot this in February, so the air was chilly that morning, and because of that it felt better in the water than out. Next, the perspective of looking at the skier from the boat can get pretty boring, so I tried to position myself as low in the back of the boat as possible to freshen it up a bit. Last, shooting action early in the morning with less intense light can make it tough to freeze the action, and focusing can become difficult, so you really need to know your gear and how to make it work for you. But I think when you combine water, a dynamic action, and sunshine, it's a recipe for some beautiful results. And it’s always fun to see your work in printed form, especially in the age of digital media.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 80 - Our Favorite Covers - Issue #78</image:title>
      <image:caption>TASTE When I saw the cover, I could not believe how stunning that shot came out. That chicken sandwich felt like it was leaping off the page at me. This idea was birthed by photos I've admired of late, voiced in the tone of LoveBird's brand. I wanted to lean into their neon pink punk aesthetic and tone along with trying a style that I'd seen in Publix store aisles and food &amp; wine magazines where they made objects appear as though they were falling in air. The way we shot this was that we ran skewers through every individual piece of LoveBird's GOAT chicken sandwich and shot them against a flamingo-pink backdrop.  We held individual pickles, onions and chicken tenders on sticks. Dan Austin &amp; I collaborated on a plan, executed it with the help of Jordan Randall and then a lot of the magic was done in post production.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 80 - Our Favorite Covers - Issue #69</image:title>
      <image:caption>ENTERTAINS For this shoot, we wanted the cover image to stand out and be bolder than some of the covers we’ve done for The Lakelander in the past. The shoot had its challenges, but ultimately me and my editorial director felt proud of what we were able to put together. This cover really ended up being something different and striking for The Lakelander, so much so that I remember mocking it up on my computer and being nervous that the team wouldn’t choose it for the cover image. But ultimately, they did, and I was pretty happy about that. When we finally got to see it in print and hold it in our hands, it was really affirming. Seeing something you put a lot of heart and time into come to life is always super exciting.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>WEDDINGS When our team was brainstorming for this, I urged everyone to push the envelope with the styling. I had shot editorial wedding dresses before, but wanted to ensure these brides had an edge to them. The Met Gala theme that year (2018)  was "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination." I drew much inspiration from the event. The gold crown worn on the cover was handmade the night before the shoot out of twisty ties and gold spray paint. It was a last minute push, but it worked! In addition, it stormed on and off the entire day we shot this feature! We had to relocate and rethink a few details on the fly. Still, it all turned out better than I envisioned!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>MUSIC This cover turned out even better than I imagined in my mind, and I give much credit to the Creative Director and photographer. Personally, it stands out because the old speakers and receivers we used were from my childhood. They were the ones in the living room of the home I grew up in. I would come home from school and listen to records for hours. I still have that sound system today and still love listening to music through those old speakers.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>NOV-DEC 2013 I remember when The Lakelander let us know that not only would we be featured in the upcoming issue, we’d be the cover shot. This was fairly early on in the life of the magazine and we were so happy just to be featured. When it came time for the shoot, we all thought it would be great to have Huckleberry be a part of it, since he was such a big part of our lives and he loved going to “papa’s shop.” Huck made it to 11 years old and went to the big dog park in the sky in September of 2020, and we cherish that cover shot very much.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>LAKELANDER MADE When we discovered DogHouse Forge we knew had to feature them in our Lakelander MADE Issue. We had produced 13 issues so far, and when we came out with this issue it was definitely my favorite cover to date, and it solidified in my mind that we were on to something. After the issue was released I talked to Jonathan about ordering some knives and he shared with me that he was backlogged with orders. It shows the power of a positive platform for local businesses to showcase their work to a local audience. I still get excited today when I see DogHouse Forge knives in my friend's homes.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>WEDDINGS One of the greatest resources we have at The Lakelander is our relationships. When we had the idea to do something that had never been done before at a yet-to-open, much hyped new addition to Lakeland, we turned to local business woman Laura Shannon to help us make it happen. The owner of Ashton Events, Bloom Shakalaka and Haus 820 created floral arrangements, contacted vendors and was a logistical wizard in setting up a full day of photo shoots. Coordinating an entire "mock wedding" was not easy, and getting a young set of models to "act like they were in love" was interesting, but the distinct details tied into incredible panoramic views made a gorgeous feature and stunning cover.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>MAY - JUNE 2014 I believe we shot this in the basement of what was the Catapult building at that time. It was Penny and Finn (photographers), Josh Vasquez (hair stylist), Courtney Philpot (style editor), and myself. It was still early on so we were borrowing a lot from our own closets and maybe had one store who would lend us things from time to time. Our intern, Bea, was our model and I did her makeup, but it was one of my favorite shoots because of our collaboration on set that day. It was always a small thrill to see any of our issues in print knowing all of the hard work, time, and tremendous talent that everyone on the team contributed to make it come into existence. One of the most fun shoots I have done to date was this health and beauty feature! Our team wanted all of the focus to be on the model’s face, and skin, with other elements — sand, water, milk — as the backdrop. The makeup and hair team that day was phenomenal. It was a great flow.

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 80 - Top 10 Made - Bloom Shakalaka, Laura Shannon</image:title>
      <image:caption>Any gardening or horticulture related clichés to describe Bloom Shakalaka’s exponential growth the past few years would fall short of truly symbolizing of just how fast the business has blossomed and how deep its roots have stretched locally. The company was founded in January 2020, it was featured in the February 2020 Lakelander MADE issue and weeks later the pandemic hit. Yet, Lakelanders supported Laura Shannon and her staff, and two-and-a-half years later the business is ascending quickly. “Thanks to our community [and people’s] encouragement, wisdom and investment in our blooms we are still here and thriving beyond anything we imagined,” she says. “We had 18 people at our last staff meeting, and I am incredibly honored to see how Bloom has grown.” What started as a floral boutique with a brick and mortar location at The Joinery has morphed into a subscription service and event-focused business, which ties neatly into Shannon’s ownership of Haus 820 and Ashton Events.  Bloom Shakalaka staff recently returned from “flowering” a wedding in Tennessee, and they have become one of the local favorite’s to beautify weddings and parties. This fall, Bloom is rolling out a more comprehensive subscription service, which will be called “Forget Me Not.” “[It is] aimed to let our customers select a personalized calendar of bloom deliveries that will care for their loved one throughout the year,” Shannon says. “Birthdays, anniversaries, holidays — they pick the dates and we make sure the blooms get there!” Shannon says she also wants to reinvigorate the company’s website to better showcase all of its offerings and inspire people to dream big for upcoming events. Shannon is clearly grateful that through the ups and downs caused by being a new business navigating a pandemic she was part of a community like Lakeland. “I had Lakeland business mentors pouring their time and support into both me, personally, and our staff,” she says. “They carried us through some really hard situations and helped us cross bridges that we couldn’t have ourselves.” Bloom Merch Soaps, candles, body wash, perfume and more $5-$26.50 bloomshakalaka.com</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 79 - Piloting Progress - More Than  Hurricane Hunters</image:title>
      <image:caption>A brief glance at Sarah Cozart’s last year in the field makes perfect sense for an environmental studies graduate. Tracking endangered North Atlantic Right Whales. Coastal mapping.  Surveying leatherback sea turtles. Garnering data on oceanic conditions in the arctic.  The twist in the narrative arrives when you realize Cozart is doing those things while living out her childhood dream of being a pilot, and is also serving her country — all part of the vigorous, uncommon and, as she puts it, “gratifying” experience of being a member of the NOAA Corps.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>1. You locate a home in Divvy’s inventory that you would like to purchase, which contractually has to be done within three years 2. You make a one-time, upfront payment (1 to 2 percent of your home’s value) that goes straight toward savings for your future down payment 3. As part of your monthly payment, 5 to 25 percent of those funds go into a “savings” that will be applied to your home purchase price if/when you qualify for a mortgage and decide to purchase it 4. Divvy is responsible for all major repairs to the homes they own, and tenants agree to work closely with them to schedule those repairs in a timely and agreed upon manner; the maintenance costs are built-in to the monthly payments 5. If you decide to purchase the home, it is based upon the agreed upon price for purchasing it either before 18 months of renting or before and up to 36 months of renting; if you choose to not purchase the home or cannot qualify for a mortgage you must provide a 60-day notice; you will retain the “savings” funds you have put in on a monthly basis and will be charged a relisting fee.</image:caption>

We get in the back of an Uber or in the back of a Lyft. And it’s not because suddenly you just weren’t cynical or skeptical about it anymore, but it’s in many cases, it’s just that you gotta figure out how to cross that trust chasm. So you have to do it yourself and you have to earn that trust for us. It is very much earned.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In 2018, Dee and Amanda McDonald wanted to update their space. They had a tight budget — but weren’t afraid to get creative. Amanda kept her eye on eclectic, textural pieces with a neutral finish. When she found a discounted tile she loved, she and Dee worked together from there, cutting their own pressed plywood to create an affordable shiplap backsplash. “We found freedom in doing the design ourselves. We got to add our own flair, piecing together all the little things we liked,” Amanda said. Sourcing their own materials meant they used both local and chain retailers to renovate their space. They paired big-box store cabinetry and shelving with locally-designed, thin-cut quartz countertops. Amanda reflected on the mindset she adopted when styling her home: “It’s important to remember that it’s your home, and no one else’s. You should love every detail.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 75 - Saving More Than Brick - A Walk to Remember</image:title>
      <image:caption>If you’ve ever walked past or around Lake Mirror, then you’ve surely noticed its immense beauty during a sunset, or its calming peacefulness in the morning light. But do you know the history of Lake Mirror, and the many different stories that cover each and every inch of the lake? Lucky for you, Stacy Smith of Lakeland’s Parks and Recreation department would love to share. On the fourth Tuesday of each month, October through March, Smith shares his deep knowledge of Lakeland along with his love for storytelling with the Lake Mirror Historic Tour. Always free to attend, you’ll find Smith dressed in period garb while holding a lantern as he walks you and your group around the lake, sharing stories that cover Lake Mirror and its surrounding areas. You’ll even enter the Frances Langford Promenade Loggia, a covered gallery where guests can see pictures and videos to go along with the stories they’ve heard on the tour. Tours limited to the first 25 attendees. Call the Lake Mirror Office at (863)-834-2280 come October to reserve your spot!</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 74 - That is More Than Skin Deep - Meet Melissa Kenzie Aesthetician at TruMed Spa</image:title>
      <image:caption>TrueMedSpa provides services and products to treat fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, sun damage, acne, rosacea, dry skin and more. The spa sells and recommends the highly-rated SkinCeuticals line of products, especially the Vitamin C serum to offset the impact of UVA and UVB rays in Central Florida. Kinsey, who has been a skin care professional for nearly 20 years, says the price point might cause some customers to raise their eyebrows at first, but she believes the long-term benefits make the products worth the investment. Kinsey believes one thing that sets TrueMedSpa apart is the loyalty they reciprocate with their clients and the long-term bonds they share. She has some clients she has served for more than 15 years, and recently a client who Kinsey gave her first facial at age 13 opened her own skin care business after years of being mentored by the aesthetician.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 72 - Feeding Our Community - Winter Panzanella with  Cheesy Croutons, Dates + Pecans</image:title>
      <image:caption>SERVES 4 A garlicky, butter bath and a hot oven are all you need to transform a stale loaf of bread into the star ingredient for this hearty, cold-weather salad.  INGREDIENTS For the croutons: 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter 1 garlic clove, grated 6 cups day-old bread, cubed ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese For the salad: 1 small butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes  1 medium sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes  8 oz brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved lengthwise  ½ cup plus 2 Tbsp. olive oil, divided Kosher salt and pepper 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh thyme leaves 1 small red onion, thinly sliced 3 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar 1 Tbsp. maple syrup 1 tsp. Dijon mustard  1 bunch Italian parsley, finely chopped ½ cup Medjool dates, pitted and chopped ½ cup toasted pecan, chopped DIRECTIONS Preheat the oven to 400F. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter until foamy. Add the garlic and bread cubes toss to coat. Add most of the Parmesan and stir together. Transfer bread cubes to a baking sheet, sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese, and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, flipping once or twice, until golden and crispy.  Set aside and let cool. Set the oven to 425F. Toss squash, sweet potato, and brussels sprouts with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme. Arrange in a single layer on two baking sheets and roast until tender and lightly browned for 30 to 35 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through cooking.  Meanwhile, in a small bowl, soak the sliced onion in the sherry vinegar and a pinch of salt for 15 minutes. To make the dressing, whisk ½ cup olive oil, maple syrup, and mustard into a bowl with onions and vinegar. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Assemble the salad by tossing the roasted vegetables, bread, parsley, dates, and walnuts with the dressing. Sprinkle with extra parmesan cheese if desired and serve immediately.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 72 - Radical Generosity - Franklin A. Thomas, Ford Motors</image:title>
      <image:caption>Franklin A. Thomas was a distinguished and lifelong advocate for economic and social justice and took on rebuilding the struggling neighborhood in New York City where he once grew up. Thomas also led the philanthropic giant Ford Foundation, broke barriers on major corporation boards, including Citibank, and worked to build a legal system for post-apartheid South Africa. After receiving his B.A. degree, Thomas joined the U.S. Air Force as a strategic air command navigator, where he served as captain from 1956 to 1960. In 1964, he was admitted to the New York State Bar and began his legal career as an attorney at the Federal Housing and Home Finance Agency’s New York office. During the same year, Thomas served as Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York.  From 1967 to 1977, Thomas served as president and chief executive officer for the Bedford-Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation. He raised approximately $63 million in public and private funds and served at the forefront of community redevelopment efforts. As president of the Ford Foundation from 1979 to 1996, the nation’s richest philanthropic organization at the time, Thomas focused its programs on poverty and human rights and established programs in South Africa to develop black leaders for the end of apartheid.  Five years later, he answered the call to oversee the September 11th Fund, which distributed nearly $600 million in public donations to help victims of the 2001 terrorist attack.  Thomas was the recipient of numerous awards, including The Lyndon Baines Johnson Award for “Contributions to the Betterment of Urban Life,” the John Jay and Alexander Hamilton Awards from Columbia College, and Columbia Law School’s James Kent Medal for distinguished professional achievement. He also was the recipient of Columbia University’s Medal of Excellence.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 72 - Radical Generosity - David and Lucile Packard, HP Technology</image:title>
      <image:caption>David and Lucile Packard were philanthropists long before they helped transform a small electronics shop in their garage into one of the world’s leading technology companies, best recognized today as “HP Technology.”  When Lucile met David as a Stanford undergraduate, she was already giving back, volunteering at the Stanford Convalescent Home to help treat children with tuberculosis. Even after HP achieved monumental success, Lucile continued her work with the Home. The Packard’s donated $40 million to convert the Stanford Convalescent Home into the Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital, widely considered one of the best pediatric hospitals in the country. She also served as chair of the Children’s Health Council board and gave her name to the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children’s Health, established a few years after her passing. David and Lucile formalized their passion for philanthropy in 1964 when they established the David and Lucile Packard Foundation. After David died in 1996, the Foundation was named the beneficiary of a significant portion of his estate. The couple’s philanthropic efforts were not limited to children’s causes. The David and Lucile Packard Foundation is one of the nation’s largest independent foundations, with annual giving nearing $300 million. As environmental conservation was a passion of David’s, he and Lucile created the Monterey Bay Aquarium, visited by 1.8 million annually. The couple also advocated for the free market, and David served on the boards of the Hoover Institution, the Herbert Hoover Foundation, and the American Enterprise Institute. Lucile and David worked closely to build and operate Hewlett-Packard.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>When is the right time to give? Now! What would you say to someone who is considering a way to share their successes? The moment you feel it, do it!  Every single dollar helps. And, if you don’t have money to spare, give your time. Trust me, it’s appreciated! What does giving mean to you? The more you give, the more you receive. I literally met my husband on Christmas day, volunteering at the VA hospital. I’m pretty sure that every great thing that has happened in my life, has happened at the crossroads of giving and serving.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 71 - Honoring the Life of Carol Jenkins Barnett</image:title>
      <image:caption>Carol Jenkins Barnett, community philanthropist and former chair and president of Publix Super Markets Charities, passed away on Tuesday, December 7, at the age of 65.   Lakelander, Jenkins Barnett, started her career as a cashier at a Publix store in the Grove Parks Shopping Center; she then moved up in the company through the corporate marketing research and development department in 1979. She was elected to the Publix board of directors in 1983, where she served until her 2016 Alzheimer’s diagnosis. In addition to her service at Publix, Jenkins Barnette was personally involved in various nonprofit organizations, from the United Way of Central Florida to the Florida Partnership for School Readiness. Jenkins Barnett was also known for her generous donations to institutions, including her alma mater, Florida Southern College, and the Lakeland Regional Health Medical Center, which bears her name at the Carol Jenkins Barnett Pavilion for Women and Children. Carol Jenkins Barnett received numerous accolades for her generous spirit, such as a Champion for Literacy award from the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy, and was selected for the Florida Women’s Hall of Fame in 2016. Jenkins Barnett is survived by her husband, Barney Barnett; two sons, Wesley Barnett (Ashley Bell Barnett) and Nicholas Barnett (Ashley Gibson Barnett); three grandchildren: Raleigh, Birdie, and Zoey; and many other family members. She was preceded in death by her father, George, and mother, Anne.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 70 - Letters To Santa</image:title>
      <image:caption>Believing in Santa is an integral part of the lens upon which children view Christmas while growing up. When you’re young, the line between reality and imagination is so blurry, anything is possible. It’s that spark of fantasy and joy in a child’s eye that makes being a kid at Christmas time so special. And being able to see that spark in a child’s eye through the lens of adulthood brings a whole new perspective on the importance of Christmas and the importance of believing without seeing. This year, you can help keep that imagination alive in your child’s life by writing and dropping off a letter to Santa at Lakeside Village. From now until Monday, December 20th, you can write a letter to Santa and drop it off at the mailbox in the fountain at Lakeside Village. Go ahead, tell Santa everything that’s on your mind and everything you want for Christmas, but don’t forget to include a return address so Santa can write you back! The truth is; eventually, children grow up and become adults. They develop curiosity paired with critical thinking skills and stop believing in Santa. But the lessons we learn during our youth- when we most believed in a jolly, magical man who visited every home in the world in only one night- are evergreen.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>When someone rolls up to the RP Funding Center for Collectorama next month in their shiny red Corvette, it’s unlikely they will realize that 42 years ago the iconic pop star Prince recorded the “Little Red Corvette” music video on that very site. And to think that Elvis hosted concerts not once, but twice, at what was established as the Lakeland Civic Center in 1975 might seem like revisionist history to Lakelanders who didn’t grow up in the area. As the RP Funding Center celebrates its 50th anniversary this year it’s fun to take a trip back in time to an era of rock n roll shows and epic experiences, but it’s just as important to recognize how vital the facility is to the future of the city, even if Mötley Crüe or Van Halen aren’t walking through the door anytime soon.

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 68 - Incubating Success</image:title>
      <image:caption>Catapult started with one mission in mind: to foster the growth of startups. And that mission has remained the same throughout seven years, twenty-seven startups, and over two-hundred entrepreneurs. As Catapult operates out of their brand new space––located at 502 E. Main Street––coworking and incubator program members are able to experience even more exclusive tools at their disposal to help shape and build their dreams into reality. “While we were building this new space, we visited over a hundred spaces throughout the nation to try and bring the best ideas back to Lakeland. We wanted to make the space as useful as possible and recreate what we saw in some of those other spaces. We started from scratch, took a step back, and analyzed what our entrepreneurs needed. Today, we have a three story building which is exactly what we wanted it to be,” says Christin Strawbridge, Catapult’s President.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 67 - Flavors of the Antilles - Jamaican Snapper Escovitch</image:title>
      <image:caption>Jamaican Escovitch, one of Jamaica’s staple dishes. The dish’s tart and spicy notes are simple yet complex––just like its origins and the colonial influences that continue to be a part of the Island’s culture––one of those being Spain's colonization from 1494 to 1655. This savory dish features a blend of peppers, onions, and carrots cooked in vinegar and served atop flaky, fried red, or yellowtail snapper. The word Escovitch stems from the Spanish word Escabeche, a term that describes a variety of vinegar-marinated fish and meat dishes. The Spaniards, who had been colonized by the Moors for 700 years, borrowed this technique from North African and Middle Eastern cuisines.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Union Hall opened in Dixieland in 2019 to attract both local and national artists to Lakeland and provide a cool place to hear them. Its founders include a professional musician, and it’s clear that creating a venue enjoyable to both performer and listener is the top priority. Hang out inside near the stage and bar or relax outside on the patio. Union Hall is also a wonderful place to hold private, corporate, and promotional events; and weddings and receptions.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>You can say a lot of things about the city of Lakeland but never that it lacks culture. That’s mostly due to artists like Robert Fleitz, a pianist and Lakeland native. Fleitz has studied piano and taken his talent to venues all over the world. He’s seen the magic that music, especially through the piano, can bring into the lives of people of all ages. Now, Fleitz is aiming to bring a bit of that magic back here to Lakeland, through the very first Swan City Piano Festival. In 2011, Fleitz graduated from Harrison School for the Arts and went on to earn both his bachelor’s and master’s degree from The Juilliard School in New York City. Today, Fleitz has his sights on creating an event that could help inspire other pianists and artists. “It’s a celebration of pianists and piano literature that brings together really aesthetically diverse pianists from all over the country (and hopefully someday beyond) to build on Lakeland’s already vibrant art scene through piano playing.” The festival gives Fleitz a chance to collaborate with other artists he’s both encountered and admired over the years. “I don’t really get to play or collaborate with other pianists too often. So, this is my chance to showcase some amazing artists who I love and otherwise haven’t gotten the chance to collaborate with artistically. I’m mostly a performer, but I also just love getting to share other people’s work and amplify other performers. Any chance in which I get to do that is an exciting opportunity.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In the middle of our conversation, Fleitz remarked that “Lakeland is an exciting place to start something.” And it’s true. Lakeland is a city that embraces artists, entrepreneurs, and dreamers of all ages. There is a potential in this city to do better, be better, and make better. In fact, Fleitz credits his time at Harrison School for the Arts in Lakeland as a big contributor in getting him to where he is today. “I had a really wonderful time at Harrison. I loved being there and have really fond memories of that time. It's so special that we have a place like that in Lakeland, a place that's dedicated to art for high school students. It was because I was a student there that it was possible for me to get where I am today. I had a lot of help and support [at Harrison]. I just remember being so inspired, getting to see dancers and actors and all artists doing their thing. It was really exciting.” “I had a really wonderful time at Harrison. I loved being there and have really fond memories of that time. It’s so special that we have a place like that in Lakeland, a place that’s dedicated to art for high school students.” As a pianist and composer, Robert Fleitz performs, commissions, and writes music to curate evocative experiences for audiences.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 115 - College Updates - SEU Worship Celebrates Release of New Album</image:title>
      <image:caption>Following a flurry of success in 2024, including hitting #1 on Apple Music’s Christian Music Chart, SEU Worship dropped its latest album “A Forgiving God” earlier this summer. A press release from Southeastern University says the album “is a reflection of the journey Southeastern University’s campus has taken through seasons of prayer, creativity, and rediscovery of God’s mercy.” The songs explore the honest experience of continually striving to draw near to God, falling short and seeking His mercy that can lead to healing and redemption. “A Forgiving God” is a nine-track album that departs from the structure of traditional worship formats. Instead, it leans into creative expression and intentional storytelling, using a blend of folksy instrumentation and indie textures, which are designed to capture the evolving sound of SEU Worship. Influenced by extended worship moments, prayer chapels, and the broader movement happening on campus, the album reflects a dynamic and evolving expression of praise. Two songs from the album that are currently available, entitled “Fruit Takes Time” and “Dwell,” offer a soundtrack for real-life faith. In the first two months after being released these two singles surpassed 2 million streams collectively. You can listen to the full album anywhere you listen to streaming music.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 116 - In Search of Lakeland’s Finest Gizzards - 1. Nick &amp; Moes</image:title>
      <image:caption>IT’S PLACE IN THE PECKING ORDER: Not as crispy as I would like, but well-seasoned, nice and tender. The gizzards seem to be softened in a precook which makes for a nice creamy mouth feel. The breading/coating could be enhanced to create a finished product with a great crisp but nonetheless a very consistent offering.  FIND IT AT: 4410 Kathleen Road &amp; 2750 US Hwy 98 N. 863-858-0928 GIBLET GRAVY, ANYONE? Along with other giblets (heart and liver), gizzards can be used to make a flavorful gravy, often served with Thanksgiving turkey.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 116 - In Search of Lakeland’s Finest Gizzards - 2. Mama’s Soul Food</image:title>
      <image:caption>IT’S PLACE IN THE PECKING ORDER: Crispy, well-seasoned nuggets of near perfection! The seasoned breading used on these gizzards is the best in town. The gizzards have a nice tender chew. The only issue that I have is the price point seems high compared to the portion size. FIND IT AT: 518 E Memorial Blvd.  813-769-9552</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 116 - In Search of Lakeland’s Finest Gizzards - 3. Baba’s Food &amp; Fuel</image:title>
      <image:caption>IT’S PLACE IN THE PECKING ORDER: Another good value offering. Crispy, well-seasoned and evenly breaded. Slightly chewy texture on the small to medium size gizzards. The larger sizes were a bit too chewy. FIND IT AT: 2905 Reynolds Rd. SHOW SOME RESPECT, GET YOUR MAN A GIZZARD. In communities across Nigeria, Cameroon, Uganda and Kenya, serving the gizzard to the man of the house is an affirmation of his role as the head of the family. For the Luhya people of Kenya, the gizzard, or imondo, is considered sacred and can even be the cause of disputes if served incorrectly.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 116 - In Search of Lakeland’s Finest Gizzards - 4. Winners Circle</image:title>
      <image:caption>IT’S PLACE IN THE PECKING ORDER: Crispy, well-seasoned and evenly breaded. Slightly chewy texture on the larger gizzards, but the small – medium size were tender. These gizzards did not appear to be par cooked in any way. The fry oil was nearing the end of its life cycle and could be tasted in the overall flavor of the gizzards. This is the best bang for the buck value in town. FIND IT AT: 4215 South Florida Ave. 863-644-9464</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 116 - In Search of Lakeland’s Finest Gizzards - 5. Chevron</image:title>
      <image:caption>IT’S PLACE IN THE PECKING ORDER: Crispy, well-seasoned and evenly breaded. Slightly chewy texture on the gizzard itself, but all the gizzard pieces were on the small – medium size. I feel this helps when the gizzard is not par cooked in any way. Worth the drive and, by far, one of the best values in town. FIND IT AT: 4301 New Tampa Highway 863-687-8132 WHAT DOES A GIZZARD TASTE LIKE? As simplyrecipes.com explains, gizzards have the flavor of a chicken’s dark meat—the meat found on the wings, thighs, and legs, rather than the breast—but with a little more intensity.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 118 - A Gift Wrapped in History - step one:</image:title>
      <image:caption>Create loops. Form a ribbon circle approximately the width of the bow you’d like to make; ours measures about six inches across. Continue winding the ribbon around, forming at least eight circles. The more times you wrap the ribbon around, the more loops you’ll have in the center, so your bow will be fuller.</image:caption>
    </image:image>
    <image:image>
      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6765cbe45d44c362cc769b3b/520beaef-13da-40a2-b4df-086c827fa65b/bows-02.png</image:loc>
      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 118 - A Gift Wrapped in History - step two:</image:title>
      <image:caption>Cut the loop ends. When you’re done wrapping the ribbon into circles, flatten the loops and use craft scissors to make a diagonal cut at all four corners, leaving a small section between the two cuts on each side. Be careful not to cut too much off or the bow will break when you are tightening the knot.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 118 - A Gift Wrapped in History - step three:</image:title>
      <image:caption>Secure the center. After cutting the four corners, refold the flattened loops so that the cut notches meet in the center. Firmly tie a thin piece of string or craft wire around the center notches.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 118 - A Gift Wrapped in History - step four:</image:title>
      <image:caption>Fluff the bow. Pull each ribbon strip outward, alternating directions, to create a rounded “pom-pom” shape. Twist and shape each strip with your fingers so the bow looks full and even. Gently adjust the curls and volume for balance.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 118 - A Gift Wrapped in History - step five:</image:title>
      <image:caption>Cut the loop ends. Use the center tie to attach the bow to the crossed ribbon on your wrapped gift.</image:caption>

I have seen the impact firsthand, I have felt the impact and that’s what drives me. Everything we do I try to measure back against impact.”</image:title>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 121 - Glow, Naturally - Advanced Clinical Facials</image:title>
      <image:caption>Using a special instrument to shave away the uppermost layers of your skin, dermaplaning can help reduce the appearance of acne scars or other skin imperfections by revealing newer, undamaged skin. Some people also get dermaplaning for hair removal, although it is only a temporary fix. Why it’s beneficial: These treatments combine science-backed ingredients with plant-based formulations to improve clarity, hydration and texture. Options like IS Clinical’s Fire &amp; Ice-style treatments deliver visible results quickly, making them appealing to clients who want improvement without peeling or prolonged redness. Best For: Clients seeking results-driven facials with minimal downtime often gravitate toward these services. They’re well-suited for individuals addressing early fine lines, dehydration or uneven texture who prefer gentler alternatives to stronger chemical peels.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 121 - Glow, Naturally - Microdermabrasion and Microcurrent</image:title>
      <image:caption>Microdermabrasion gently resurfaces the skin using fine exfoliation to remove dead skin cells, while microcurrent therapy uses low-level electrical currents to stimulate facial muscles. Why it’s beneficial: Microdermabrasion helps soften fine lines, improve tone and brighten complexion. Microcurrent treatments focus more on lifting and firming, offering subtle contouring and improved muscle tone over time. Both are non-invasive and typically require no downtime. Best For: These services are well-suited for clients looking for a refreshed appearance before a special event or those interested in early anti-aging solutions without injectables. They also appeal to individuals who want noticeable improvements paired with a relaxing experience.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 121 - Glow, Naturally - Barrier Repair and Corrective Facials</image:title>
      <image:caption>Corrective facials are designed to strengthen the skin barrier, address inflammation and support long-term skin health. Treatments often incorporate gentle exfoliation, enzyme therapy, calming masks and results-driven professional products tailored to each client’s skin condition. Why it’s beneficial: Barrier-focused facials prioritize skin function over quick cosmetic changes. By improving hydration, reducing sensitivity and restoring balance, these treatments can help calm acne-prone, reactive or compromised skin while supporting more consistent results over time. This approach is especially important in our Floridian climate, where the never ending sun exposure and humidity can challenge skin health year-round. Best For: These services are well suited for clients dealing with sensitivity, breakouts, redness or over-exfoliated skin, as well as those who have tried aggressive treatments without success. It’s also an ideal option for clients seeking education, realistic expectations and a long-term skincare plan rather than a single, quick fix.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Lakelander Issue 121 - Glow, Naturally - Dermaplaning</image:title>
      <image:caption>Using a special instrument to shave away the uppermost layers of your skin, dermaplaning can help reduce the appearance of acne scars or other skin imperfections by revealing newer, undamaged skin. Some people also get dermaplaning for hair removal, although it is only a temporary fix. Why it’s beneficial: Dermaplaning enhances smoothness and product absorption while delivering immediate results. With multiple options available, clients can select treatments aligned with both skincare goals and budget. Best For: This option is ideal for those seeking a more personalized, spa-forward experience. It’s especially appealing to clients with sensitive skin, those prioritizing hydration or anyone exploring non-invasive services before transitioning into medical aesthetic treatments.</image:caption>
