Not Always a Straight LineChef Daisley Gordon is today a well-known Seattle chef, but the route he followed to culinary fame and Madrona residency was far from a straight one. Born in Jamaica and raised in Ken-tucky, Daisley grad-uated from Western Kentucky University with a BA in speech communications and religious studies—an academic combination he thought made him as unemployable as a person can get. First he gravitated toward retail sales, then to a company that sold yellow page ads. He thought he was pretty bad at the latter, so he wasn’t surprised when his manager took him aside to say “you are horrible at this; what you should do is find yourself a Daisley job.”

Having enjoyed the results of his mother’s Those attending the Oct. MCC meeting, held in the Madrona K8 library, enjoyed meeting the school’s new principal, Mary McDaniel, and hearing about the increased enrollment and new staff at the school this year. Our venue for the Oct. meeting shifted to the school because the Shelterhouse is undergoing final stages of its remodel to upgrade the structure and add an indoor bathroom. See the building’s changes when you bring children to the Halloween event starting at the Shelterhouse on Oct. 31 to begin their scavenger hunt. Or be there on Nov. 5 for the next MCC meeting. On Nov.2 please join Council members and neighbors for the wine-tasting fund-raiser for MCC at glassybaby studios.

The Council has begun work to invite a final round of applications for the remainder of the fund provided by Mimi Kraus in her will to enhance parks in Madrona. Information about applying for funding will appear in the newsletter in coming months.

Now that MCC has built a stronger financial and administrative foundation, the Board seeks to perpetuate its role in the community by ensuring a smooth suc-cession as current Board members retire. If you would like to learn more about issues in the neighborhood and affect decisions about your community, please consider yourself invited to brief, monthly meetings on the first Tuesday of each month starting at 7:15 at the Madrona Playfield Shelterhouse.

and his own good cooking, Daisley explored the possibilities in the culinary field first by making a connection with a coworker’s husband who’d attended the Culinary Institute of America-- often referred to as the CIA . While working at the chef ’s full ser-vice Greek restaurant in Louisville, KY, Daisley had a front row seat on restaurant work. He subsequently enrolled in the CIA’s 21-month program in Hyde Park, NY that included an extern-ship in Dallas. He notes that a benefit of the CIA program is that one not only acquires cooking skills but also management skills that allow graduates to go in many directions. Although he’d en-tered the CIA thinking he’d own his own restaurant immediately, having seen the profit and loss statements of real restaurants, he put that thought on hold. Instead, he returned to Louisville as a trained chef to weigh future options that included work at a

stellar Ritz Carlton location or stepping up the long-distance relationship with a Madrona resident he’d met at the CIA. The woman won that toss, and Daisley made the move to Washing-ton State.

After arriving in Seattle in 1994, Daisley found a job at Etta’s in the early days of Tom Douglas’s empire-building. Although work with Douglas was exciting, Daisley’s own culinary interests and training skewed toward French cuisine. Thus when head chef Tamara Murphy at Campagne found an opening, Daisley made the move. At the time Café Campagne was only six months old, and kitchen management included only Murphy as the head chef, a sous chef, and Daisley. Although it was a tough and busy time with lots going on, the situation provided Daisley with much of the hands-on experience he sought. Two years later Murphy moved to open Brasa, and Daisley moved into the sous chef position. Although he thought he’d work in other restaurants before running his own kitchen, things just happened to keep him at Campagne. And as he says “the years just clicked by.”

As the head chef at Campagne and then executive chef in 2001, Daisley worked in various capacities at Campagne and Café Campagne, gaining exposure to virtually all aspects of those restaurants’ operations. Then in 2011 a new opportunity arose when the upstairs restaurant Campagne transitioned to marchė, and Daisley became the owner.. He acknowledges that it was a big step, but that he was not on unfamiliar territory. Daisley notes that he loves the work, and has gained an even broader perspective on restaurants which he says is “not an easy business.”

Café Campagne is going strong, having absorbed some of the history and special feeling of the old Campagne restaurant. At

the same time, the new marchė invites customers into a place that is snug and comfortable, and offers fantastic wine and food—an experience the Madrona Dining and Sipping Society enjoyed for their Oct. get together.

Daisley enjoys learning more about food, and has worked in short stages and observed French kitchens and sampled food throughout France. He points to 2005-06 trips to Provence, Bor-deaux, and surrounding regions in SW France as turning points for his cooking that invigorated his interest in rustic French food. He also is committed to helping others. He has donated his time as chef for initiatives such as Share our Strength Taste of the Nation; the Central District Forum for Arts and Ideas Food is Art where African American chefs showcase their food; the March of Dimes; and other organizations. He also serves on many advisory boards including the Pike Place Market Founda-tion Sunset Supper and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center’s Premier Chef ’s Dinner.

Daisley describes himself as a tinkerer who enjoys design chal-lenges. Recently he created an oyster-serving cart for Café Cam-pagne and marché, and on a recent fall afternoon he was crafting a frame for his wife’s winter garden at their Madrona home. He enjoys spending time with the woman who brought him to Seat-tle before becoming his wife, thinking her a saint for putting up with him and his busy life. But he observes that it helps that she also attended the CIA where they both learned what is involved with being a chef and running a restaurant.

Epiphany School Embraces Africa Art Suitcase By Jill Miller, Epiphany School Director of Development

From Oct. 14 -24, Epiphany School hosted the Art of Identity, Expression and Adornment: Africa Outreach Suitcase from the Seattle Art Museum Teacher Resource Center. The suitcase holds objects from Africa, lesson and activity plans, and CD images that give students an understanding of African art and culture, and then encourages them to share perspectives based on their own lives. Throughout the loan period, the Africa suitcase was shared with pre-kindergarten, kindergarten, first, and fifth grade students; lessons centered on concepts appropriate to each grade.

Epiphany School art teacher Barbara Buchman partnered with the museum to secure the Africa suitcase; several other outreach suitcases will be incorporated into School’s curriculum through-out the year. Sometimes Buchman will use the suitcase as part of her art curriculum. At other times, classroom teachers will integrate the suitcases into their own curriculum, as in the spring when Northwest Native American Art suitcase’s arrival will coin-cide with the third grade Northwest Native American Art unit.

Says Buchman, “By engaging in community partnerships, we are able to leverage community resources into great learning tools for our students. It’s one thing to read about or see a picture of a Masai necklace. It’s another thing to actually touch one and try it on.” For additional information, contact Jill Miller at [email protected] or 720-7667.

Madrona K-8Almost 40 volunteers gathered at Madrona K-8 on Oct. 12 to beautify the garden and grounds. Together, they built eight raised beds, weeded and mulched the garden and grounds, removed a stump, and had a lot of fun working together.

Washington Green Schools supported the work party by recruit-ing volunteers and finding donations of wood and compost. One of the middle school teachers will be leading a Green Team of students to pursue Washington Green School certification this year. Other Madrona K-8 students will learn to grow vegetables in the raised beds. If you would like to join us next time, keep an eye on the tool shed black board for future work opportunities.

St. Therese Catholic AcademyParentMap’s Education Guide offered a special Learning Map issue featuring an article on blended learning that mentioned St. Therese Catholic Academy’s use of this learning model. In our first year using blended learning, students school-wide at STCA outperformed national averages for growth in reading and math. This new model allows teachers to combine small-group instruc-tion with personalized learning to ensure that students can make significant gains. Please call the school at 324-0460 to schedule a tour and see blended learning in action.

STCA’s Parent Club will be hosting a family Bingo Night on Nov. 9. The event will run from 5:00-7:00pm in the School’s social hall. Only $10 buys three Bingo cards, and a hot dog,

Pledge Your Support to Keep Madrona in Bloom

By Marie Doyle, 37th Ave.

In this, our 8th year of the Madrona Blos-soms program, we extend heartfelt thanks to everyone--individuals inside and outside Madrona, business and real estate own-ers—who’ve helped support the hanging flower baskets with generous donations in years past. The beautiful blooms brought

Conrow Porcelain Studio Holiday Show…then The Pop Up Gallery

By Ginny Conrow, 34th Ave.This year my Holiday Show will be earlier than usual, Nov. 8-10, after which time I will spend five months making pottery in Mex-ico. My newest forms and glazes have been influenced by both time in Mexico and work last spring in Barcelona. I’m glad to have the opportunity of working in the two very different villages of Yelapa and Madrona, both of which are gathering places that encourage a sense of community and local interaction for me.

The Nov. 8-10 show will include gemstone and pearl jewelry by Susan Goodwin to introduce new vintage crystal and grouped opal pieces. Kate Beck adds texture and color with her sumptu-ous shibori silk scarves and accessories. You can enjoy this op-portunity to visit with the artists and see a preview of four artists listed below whose work will be available in a Pop Up Gallery at the 1429 34th Ave. showroom from early Dec.-April.

• Darcy Thompson displays one-of-a-kind upcycled jewelry, transforming once treasured China dishes into unusual adornments.

• Margaret Opalka creates accent pillows in designer fabrics. • Lysle Wilhelmi designs fun, funky fashion for women and girls. • Mary Margaret Briggs adds botanical and abstract mono-

types, printed note cards, and textiles. Enjoy this opportunity to visit with the artists and see the studio all dressed up for the weekend. For more information, contact me at 427-1941 or [email protected].

Coast Guard Cutter MadronaIn addition to many other activities, local author Junius Roch-ester often is the on-board historian for river cruises throughout the US. On a recent Snake and Columbia River jour-ney, he met Capt. Robertson Dinsmore, USCG and USMS (ret.)--an expert on ship histories. Having read Rochester’s Madrona history, Capt. Dinsmore followed up by sending Junius pictures of the Coast Guard Cutter Madrona, an 180-foot lighthouse tender built in 1942. He further noted that all lighthouse tenders were named after plants, flowers, or trees. Today the good ship Madrona is decommissioned, but the photo here provides an interesting historical link for Madrona residents. Those who’d like to learn more Madrona history can now purchase copies of Junius’s book The Last Electric Trolley: Madrona and Denny-Blaine Seattle, Washington Neighborhoods at the Madrona Deli.

Have a Different DessertBy Jim Maloney, Madrona Wine Merchants on 34th

Dessert wines often suffer from large misconceptions. This wide array of slightly-sweet to very syrupy nectars were not de-signed to accompany chocolate cake, cookies, or pie. There is a range of them to explore as desserts in their own right that can finish an evening in a spectacular way. Below are just a few:• Port is probably the most well-known dessert wine. These

fortified wines--with rich berry flavors of the rubys and nut-ty caramel flavors of the tawnys--provide a robust finish for cold evenings. Serve the ruby with blue cheese and walnuts. Try the tawny with some short bread and apples.

• Sauternes and its companions are classic white dessert wines made by botrytis, the noble rot, that concentrates the sug-ars. True Sauternes can be spendy, but there are many from other regions that are quite affordable. Serve with a double cream brie or paté.

• Ice wines result when grapes are left on the vine until a freeze. Then the grapes are picked at night and pressed to separate the juice from the water and concentrate the flavor. These are low alcohol wines so you don’t need to worry about the hang over, just the sugar rush. True ice wines are expensive, but there are freezer-made versions that are more affordable.

• Sweeter Riesling and Gewürztraminer are low alcohol, intensely fruity wines that pair well with fruit and cheese. With age they develop amazing complexity and depth.

• More esoteric is Essencia made by California’s Quady. This orange Muscat is apricot in color with lots of orange blos-som and citrus flavors.

• A truly unique dessert wine is the 1555 Pasito from Casa Ronsil, made from Avana grapes grown in the Val de Susa in north Italy. Here they dry the grapes to concentrate the flavors and then press it slowly to get the nectar.

The wines described above are just a start on the much bigger topic of dessert wines. Next time you’re having a great meal, skip the baking and pour a little dessert.

Metro Cuts.. (cont’d from page 7) transit budget.

Cuts to transit of this magnitude would take the transit system back to its 1996 size, despite the decade and a half of job and population growth we’ve experienced since then. These cuts would also send 20,000-30,000 cars back on the road each day and leave hundreds of thousands of riders with less convenient or no travel options.

What King County has done so far to protect transit service:Over the past four years, Metro Transit has transformed its oper-ations to hold off these cuts and wrench every available dollar for service, including: • making the transit system more productive• achieving new scheduling efficiencies• eliminating more than 100 staff positions• deferring planned service expansion• reducing operating reserves• and reducing its capital program

In addition, riders are sharing the pain: since 2007, Metro has raised fares four times, an increase of 80 percent. Metro’s em-ployees were also part of the solution: salary and wage freezes, coupled with cost-of-living raise givebacks and other conces-sions, have reduced Metro’s labor costs by up to $17 million per year. The Metropolitan King County Council adopted a temporary $20 per vehicle per year Congestion Reduction Charge for the years 2012-2013, but Legislative authorization by that funding expire at the end of 2013.

resolve the ongoing transit funding shortfall, King County will need to begin shrinking Metro Transit service in 2014; Metro may have to eliminate, reduce, or revise roughly two-thirds of its bus routes to close the budget gap.

How Metro will decide which routes to revise or cut:Metro Transit is analyzing ridership on all routes systemwide to prepare a proposal for cuts that will be released for public review in Nov. Metro Transit is looking at the following goals when determining which routes to keep, revise, or cut: • Providing productive service that carries more people per hr; • Serving communities that depend heavily on transit; and • Distributing service fairly throughout the county.

Routes that carry fewer riders or duplicate other routes will be at risk for cuts, reductions, and revisions. Unfortunately, because the cuts are so deep, even routes that seem relatively full will be subject to reductions.

After Metro releases its Nov. proposal, there will be an op-portunity for public input. Please review the proposal after it is released, and share your input with Metro—Metro will be conducting public meetings and accepting written input before submitting a draft plan to King County Council for review. Met-ro anticipates two phases of cuts, first in 2014 and then in 2015.

The transit funding shortfall:The recession-driven decline in sales tax revenue that supports public transit has left King County with two choices: find a sustainable funding source for Metro Transit to continue service at current levels, or face the reality of cutting up to 17 percent of bus service—600,000 annual service hours—to balance the

Pot in the Hood?Initiative 502—approved last Nov.--permits legal production and sale of marijuana for medical and recreational use. On Oct. 15, Washington’s State Liquor Control Board set the rules for retail marijuana production and sales in a 43-page document, effective Nov. 16. A total of 334 retail stores will be allowed; 21 stores can be located in Seattle. These so-called “pot shops” cannot be located within 1000 ft. in any direction from a school, park, childcare center, arcade, public transit facility, or playground. In addition, the Seattle City Council is preparing additional restric-tions likely to prohibit marijuana businesses in residential zones, most commercial zones, and many historical and neighborhood districts. Neighbors in the 23rd and Union corridor are worried that the area will be zoned for multiple pot shops. Be in touch with the Seattle City Council to express your views.

The savings, efficiencies, and temporary revenues created by Metro over the past few years have reduced Metro’s funding shortfall by more than $800 million, but Metro still faces a shortfall of $75 million per year each year through 2015.

King County government gets taxing authority from the State Legislature, so unless the Legislature takes action this year in a special session to pass a statewide transportation package that includes local funding authority, we will face a deficit and cuts to transit service up to the worst case scenario of a 17% cut to existing transit service.
