For more than 50 years, the federal government has been funding the program to make sure older Americans get the nutrition they need. Now, a project in Vancouver, Wash., is trying to use those funds for something new: a retro-hip diner, where seniors can get eggs, coffee, and community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the surface, The Diner looks like any other diner. Servers making sure the coffee is topped off, local business people having meetings, regulars who know the whole menu. There are the usual diner specialties, with some modern nods — cage-free eggs and local produce — and a retro vibe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They play Frank Sinatra in the mornings, and it makes me so happy,\" says Autumn Zukauskus, who comes for breakfast weekly. \"Eggs and Frank Sinatra: perfect breakfast.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when a younger patron like Zukauskus reaches for her credit card, seniors like Chris Bingenheimer pull out a little green dining card.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you can donate, you do. If you don't, you don't,\" Bingenheimer explains. \"And it's no big deal to them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because the entire diner is a project of the local organization Meals on Wheels People. If you look closer, you'll notice a few differences from other restaurants. The chairs are on casters, to scoot out easily if they need to make space for a wheelchair. The coffee cups have large handles, to accommodate arthritic fingers.

Since Thursday morning, we've received more than $160,000 in online donations,\" says Jenny Bertolette, vice president for communications for the national group — which speaks on behalf of local programs and advocates for seniors, but does not itself deliver meals. It plans to use the money to fund awareness campaigns, among other things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That surge in generosity comes in the wake of news stories suggesting that Trump's budget plan asks Congress for cuts that would gut federal funding for the program. But is that really the case?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House says no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Some of the stories are just either grossly wrong or nearly grossly wrong, all the stories about how we cut Meals on Wheels,\" Mick Mulvaney, director of the Office of Management and Budget, said on NBC's \u003cem>Meet the Press\u003c/em>\u003cem> \u003c/em>Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Actually, how the meal programs are funded is kind of complicated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The brouhaha stems from two community development block grants that would be eliminated under Trump's budget. States and cities receive the grants to help them fight poverty, and some of them use that money to help pay for Meals on Wheels programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meals on Wheels, you see, isn't a federal program. It's a network of thousands of independently run groups that receive varying amounts of government aid – or none at all. (Some rely entirely on private donations). Together, they deliver hot meals to 2.4 million seniors each year. Some of these programs get federal funding, but how that will be affected is still unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because we don't know how many programs get at least some of their funding through the block grants that are on the chopping block in Trump's budget. It's up to localities to allocate those funds, and as far as Bertolette knows, no one keeps a national tally of which cities and states are using those grants to fund Meals on Wheels, or how much is going to the programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But by far, the biggest source of federal funding for Meals on Wheels programs comes from another source: the Older Americans Act Nutrition Program, which is run by the Department Of Health and Human Services. In the aggregate, Bertolette says Meals on Wheels programs across the country rely on the HHS program for 35 percent of their funding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House has proposed slashing the Health and Human Services budget by nearly 18 percent, but the details of those cuts have not been released. Will the Older Americans Act Nutrition Program be affected? No way to know.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Bertolette says \"it's difficult to imagine a scenario in which these critical services would not be significantly and negatively impacted if [the budget proposal is] enacted into law,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even at current federal funding levels, some Meals on Wheels programs are struggling to meet demand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have a waiting list for home-delivered meals of 815 seniors, and it's growing,\" says Mark Adler, executive director of \u003ca href=\"https://www.bmow.org/\">Meals On Wheels South Florida\u003c/a>, which gets 65 percent of its $5.2 million yearly budget through the federal Older Americans Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're already facing a situation where almost all of the seniors on our waiting list aren't going live to see their first meal delivered,\" says Adler.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His group serves 1.2 million meals to 10,000 seniors each year. Since Thursday, it's seen a spike in donations, taking in $1,000 over a three-day period, Adler says, where normally \"we'd get $100 if we're lucky.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.mealsonwheelsmd.org/pages/services%E2%80%94-the-homebound-meal-program%E2%80%94-landing-copy\">Meals on Wheels of Central Maryland\u003c/a> serves Baltimore City and seven other counties in the state. It relies on HHS funds for half of its $9 million annual budget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last four days, the Maryland group received $6,300 in donations, a huge increase over normal, a spokesperson said. The outpouring was welcome, because federal funds cover only about 30-60 percent of the cost of the roughly 1,500 meals it serves each day, so the organization is constantly fundraising to bridge that gap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Loss of [federal] funding would mean that we would have to drastically reduce the number of people we can serve,\" Stephanie Archer-Smith, executive director of Meals on Wheels of Central Maryland, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until the White House releases details of what will happen with funding for the Older Americans Act Nutrition Program, Adler says he'll remain on tenterhooks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The sword of Damocles is hanging over our head with what is going to happen with this administration,\" Adler says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2017 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Meals on Wheels America has seen a surge in donations from worried supporters since President Trump's budget proposal was released.

But is that really the case?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House says no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Some of the stories are just either grossly wrong or nearly grossly wrong, all the stories about how we cut Meals on Wheels,\" Mick Mulvaney, director of the Office of Management and Budget, said on NBC's \u003cem>Meet the Press\u003c/em>\u003cem> \u003c/em>Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Actually, how the meal programs are funded is kind of complicated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The brouhaha stems from two community development block grants that would be eliminated under Trump's budget. States and cities receive the grants to help them fight poverty, and some of them use that money to help pay for Meals on Wheels programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meals on Wheels, you see, isn't a federal program. It's a network of thousands of independently run groups that receive varying amounts of government aid – or none at all. (Some rely entirely on private donations). Together, they deliver hot meals to 2.4 million seniors each year. Some of these programs get federal funding, but how that will be affected is still unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because we don't know how many programs get at least some of their funding through the block grants that are on the chopping block in Trump's budget. It's up to localities to allocate those funds, and as far as Bertolette knows, no one keeps a national tally of which cities and states are using those grants to fund Meals on Wheels, or how much is going to the programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But by far, the biggest source of federal funding for Meals on Wheels programs comes from another source: the Older Americans Act Nutrition Program, which is run by the Department Of Health and Human Services. In the aggregate, Bertolette says Meals on Wheels programs across the country rely on the HHS program for 35 percent of their funding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House has proposed slashing the Health and Human Services budget by nearly 18 percent, but the details of those cuts have not been released. Will the Older Americans Act Nutrition Program be affected? No way to know.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Bertolette says \"it's difficult to imagine a scenario in which these critical services would not be significantly and negatively impacted if [the budget proposal is] enacted into law,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even at current federal funding levels, some Meals on Wheels programs are struggling to meet demand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have a waiting list for home-delivered meals of 815 seniors, and it's growing,\" says Mark Adler, executive director of \u003ca href=\"https://www.bmow.org/\">Meals On Wheels South Florida\u003c/a>, which gets 65 percent of its $5.2 million yearly budget through the federal Older Americans Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're already facing a situation where almost all of the seniors on our waiting list aren't going live to see their first meal delivered,\" says Adler.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His group serves 1.2 million meals to 10,000 seniors each year. Since Thursday, it's seen a spike in donations, taking in $1,000 over a three-day period, Adler says, where normally \"we'd get $100 if we're lucky.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.mealsonwheelsmd.org/pages/services%E2%80%94-the-homebound-meal-program%E2%80%94-landing-copy\">Meals on Wheels of Central Maryland\u003c/a> serves Baltimore City and seven other counties in the state. It relies on HHS funds for half of its $9 million annual budget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the last four days, the Maryland group received $6,300 in donations, a huge increase over normal, a spokesperson said. The outpouring was welcome, because federal funds cover only about 30-60 percent of the cost of the roughly 1,500 meals it serves each day, so the organization is constantly fundraising to bridge that gap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Loss of [federal] funding would mean that we would have to drastically reduce the number of people we can serve,\" Stephanie Archer-Smith, executive director of Meals on Wheels of Central Maryland, said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Until the White House releases details of what will happen with funding for the Older Americans Act Nutrition Program, Adler says he'll remain on tenterhooks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The sword of Damocles is hanging over our head with what is going to happen with this administration,\" Adler says. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Copyright 2017 \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/\" target=\"_blank\">NPR\u003c/a>.\u003c/em> \u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/bayareabites/116122/could-meals-on-wheels-really-lose-funding-yes-but-its-hard-to-say-how-much","authors":["byline_bayareabites_116122"],"categories":["bayareabites_3032","bayareabites_10028","bayareabites_2035"],"tags":["bayareabites_4002","bayareabites_15697"],"featImg":"bayareabites_116123","label":"bayareabites"},"bayareabites_56548":{"type":"posts","id":"bayareabites_56548","meta":{"index":"posts_1591205157","site":"bayareabites","id":"56548","score":null,"sort":[1360785338000]},"guestAuthors":[],"slug":"a-chef-love-story-gitanes-bridget-batson-and-patrick-kelly","title":"A Chef Love Story: Gitane's Bridget Batson and Patrick Kelly","publishDate":1360785338,"format":"aside","headTitle":"Bay Area Bites | KQED Food","labelTerm":{"site":"bayareabites"},"content":"\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_56607\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/02/Patrick_Bridget-Erin-Gleeson-Photography.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2013/02/Patrick_Bridget-Erin-Gleeson-Photography.jpg\" alt=\"Bridget Batson and Patrick Kelly.

How does that play out in your home kitchen? Who decides what to cook?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAidells: I’m an ex-chef and she’s a current chef, so we’re not used to people telling us what to do. We do things our own way. Even how a piece of bread gets sliced is debated: I would cut it perpendicular and she’s going to cut on a bias. If we have company over, she’ll plan the meal and I’ll cook the meat. For Thanksgiving, she cooked and I determined when the turkey was done. I carved the turkey, which I do every year. Unfortunately, neither of us know how to cook for small groups so we make a lot of food. Nancy’s the coordinating chef for \u003ca href=\"http://www.mowsf.org/\">Meals on Wheels\u003c/a> and we usually do three or four auction items where people come to our house or on a boat.

(laughs). With sausage ingredients and spices, there is always something interesting to learn. For this cookbook, I learned a lot about spices. I’m really passionate about \u003ca href=\"http://moroccanfood.about.com/od/maindishes/r/ras_el_hanout_recipe.htm\">ras el hanout\u003c/a> [a Moroccan spice blend]. We have access to one that comes from Morocco via \u003ca href=\"http://www.pacgourmet.com/\">Pacific Gourmet\u003c/a>.

At the book event lunch my wife did at \u003ca href=\"http://www.prospectsf.com/\">Prospect\u003c/a> last Saturday, we did Rosa di Parma, ham, and a breadstick with prosciutto wrapped around it. Also there was escarole and beans with prosciutto. It was really over the top.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There’s a guy in Iowa with \u003ca href=\"http://laquercia.us/\">La Quercia\u003c/a> who has access to the \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamworth_%28pig%29\">Tamworth\u003c/a> breed of pig, one of the few pigs that’s known historically as a bacon pig. Tamworth is a leaner pig but with amazing flavor. He feeds some on acorn at the end. I know him personally. That’s all he talks about is his ham.\u003cbr>\n \u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nBay Area Bites: Who are your mentors?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAidells: My mother is a negative mentor, which she hates for me to say. In the 1950s you had an entire cuisine by soup and my mother embraced that. There was Lipton onion soup meatloaf and casseroles with cream of mushroom soup. When I went to college, I asked my mom to send me her recipes. I looked at them and said “Nah.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My roommate had a \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/James-Beard/e/B000APEE8Y/ref=ntt_athr_dp_pel_1\">James Beard cookbook\u003c/a> that was falling apart and written for home cooks. I got a lot of use out of that one. Then my roommate my senior year got us a subscription to Gourmet. I went off to be a graduate student and the Time Life Foods of the World were around. I cooked through all 35 and learned a tremendous amount. Those books gave you the actual ingredients and let you go find it on your own. That was a great breakthrough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s so cliché but I learned a lot watching \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/food/juliachild/\">Julia Child\u003c/a>: how to hold a knife, and to always tuck my finger. Even if I watch the old shows today, I still learn stuff. \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/food/jacquespepin/\">Jacques Pépin\u003c/a> La Methode and La Technique taught me. Actual La Methode showed me how to turn a fridge into a sausage smoker. I still have the fridges. They are historical. My wife hates them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve been to Italy 30 times and whenever we travel with \u003ca href=\"http://www.faithwillinger.com/\">Faith Willinger\u003c/a>, it’s like you’re family. The Italian recipes I have are the best.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikram_Vij\">Vikram Vij\u003c/a> is the best Indian restaurateur in North America. His wife is opening a branch in Seattle soon. Vij’s recipes and books are really spot on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: What are the lessons you’ve learned on the way?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAidells: I credit a lot of my success more to relationships, and to treating people in a straightforward and fair way. My style tends to be blunt, where I’m not holding back and always putting my cards on the table. I still have relationships from the first sausage sale I made 30 years ago. That really builds a brand: when people know you care about your product and about who’s eating it. I’d like to think that comes through in the cookbooks as well. I’m trying to help people learn, which I suppose comes from my science and teaching background. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: Do you have any favorite Bay Area food/drink spots?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAidells: We do most of our eating in Healdsburg on the weekend. Our favorite place is the \u003ca href=\"http://www.farmhouseinn.com/restaurant-0/\">Farmhouse\u003c/a>. The chef has become our friend and I think he is the best chef in the county. He usually takes January off and goes to Asia, which shows how serious he is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.scopahealdsburg.com/\">Scopa\u003c/a> is another favorite from our friends Ari and Dawnelise. They also own \u003ca href=\"http://campo-fina.com/\">Campo Fina\u003c/a> right around the corner, which has a bocce court. We also go up to \u003ca href=\"http://www.diavolo.org/\">Diavolo\u003c/a> in Geyerserville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We shop at Mexican markets like Lola’s. Some of them have taco stands in the back and they’re pretty good. I like to get Salvadorian food in Santa Rosa -- on Sebastopol Street. The trucks are parked in front of a restaurant and have a covered patio. There’s great tamales and if you spend $10 you’ve bought way too much food. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Big John’s grocery store and Taylor’s Refresher are both great. My wife’s a huge supporter of \u003ca href=\"http://www.thegardener.com/pages.php?pageid=5\">The Gardener\u003c/a>. I like to say that she single-handedly keeps them in business. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: What are you working on these days? What’s an average workday like? What’s it like writing a cookbook?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAidells: My typical day starts around ten. Around four hours are taken up with email and Facebook. I will respond to messages, which are usually from some sort of media exposure or recipe questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is my last book for sure. (Laughs.) \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/The-Great-Meat-Cookbook-Everything/dp/0547241410/\">The Great Meat Cookbook\u003c/a> was a big book and involved a lot of research and work. It made a tremendous amount of sense to do books when I was in the sausage company and really helped the brand. Now, I don’t know how to measure the success. The actual writing is such a small part of it. There are sales and publicity efforts. I do strongly believe the best selling is done through word of mouth. That’s how I succeeded with sausage. That’s how it works with books. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Where I really do the best financially is working with food companies as a consultant. I did some Duroc ham and Vande Rose bacon recipes. I get a little royalty from those. \u003c/p>\n\n","blocks":[],"excerpt":"Mary Ladd interviews Bruce Aidells, who remains a leading authority on meat and meat cookery.

I looked at them and said “Nah.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My roommate had a \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/James-Beard/e/B000APEE8Y/ref=ntt_athr_dp_pel_1\">James Beard cookbook\u003c/a> that was falling apart and written for home cooks. I got a lot of use out of that one. Then my roommate my senior year got us a subscription to Gourmet. I went off to be a graduate student and the Time Life Foods of the World were around. I cooked through all 35 and learned a tremendous amount. Those books gave you the actual ingredients and let you go find it on your own. That was a great breakthrough.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s so cliché but I learned a lot watching \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/food/juliachild/\">Julia Child\u003c/a>: how to hold a knife, and to always tuck my finger. Even if I watch the old shows today, I still learn stuff. \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/food/jacquespepin/\">Jacques Pépin\u003c/a> La Methode and La Technique taught me. Actual La Methode showed me how to turn a fridge into a sausage smoker. I still have the fridges. They are historical. My wife hates them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’ve been to Italy 30 times and whenever we travel with \u003ca href=\"http://www.faithwillinger.com/\">Faith Willinger\u003c/a>, it’s like you’re family. The Italian recipes I have are the best.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vikram_Vij\">Vikram Vij\u003c/a> is the best Indian restaurateur in North America. His wife is opening a branch in Seattle soon. Vij’s recipes and books are really spot on.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: What are the lessons you’ve learned on the way?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAidells: I credit a lot of my success more to relationships, and to treating people in a straightforward and fair way. My style tends to be blunt, where I’m not holding back and always putting my cards on the table. I still have relationships from the first sausage sale I made 30 years ago. That really builds a brand: when people know you care about your product and about who’s eating it. I’d like to think that comes through in the cookbooks as well. I’m trying to help people learn, which I suppose comes from my science and teaching background. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: Do you have any favorite Bay Area food/drink spots?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAidells: We do most of our eating in Healdsburg on the weekend. Our favorite place is the \u003ca href=\"http://www.farmhouseinn.com/restaurant-0/\">Farmhouse\u003c/a>. The chef has become our friend and I think he is the best chef in the county. He usually takes January off and goes to Asia, which shows how serious he is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.scopahealdsburg.com/\">Scopa\u003c/a> is another favorite from our friends Ari and Dawnelise. They also own \u003ca href=\"http://campo-fina.com/\">Campo Fina\u003c/a> right around the corner, which has a bocce court. We also go up to \u003ca href=\"http://www.diavolo.org/\">Diavolo\u003c/a> in Geyerserville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We shop at Mexican markets like Lola’s. Some of them have taco stands in the back and they’re pretty good. I like to get Salvadorian food in Santa Rosa -- on Sebastopol Street. The trucks are parked in front of a restaurant and have a covered patio. There’s great tamales and if you spend $10 you’ve bought way too much food. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Big John’s grocery store and Taylor’s Refresher are both great. My wife’s a huge supporter of \u003ca href=\"http://www.thegardener.com/pages.php?pageid=5\">The Gardener\u003c/a>. I like to say that she single-handedly keeps them in business. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites: What are you working on these days? What’s an average workday like? What’s it like writing a cookbook?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAidells: My typical day starts around ten. Around four hours are taken up with email and Facebook. I will respond to messages, which are usually from some sort of media exposure or recipe questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is my last book for sure. (Laughs.) \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/The-Great-Meat-Cookbook-Everything/dp/0547241410/\">The Great Meat Cookbook\u003c/a> was a big book and involved a lot of research and work. It made a tremendous amount of sense to do books when I was in the sausage company and really helped the brand. Now, I don’t know how to measure the success. The actual writing is such a small part of it. There are sales and publicity efforts. I do strongly believe the best selling is done through word of mouth. That’s how I succeeded with sausage. That’s how it works with books. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Where I really do the best financially is working with food companies as a consultant.
