Fall is a great time of year. The Bay Area never
had what others would call “fall color” until the
last few decades. Now we have trees and bushes
ablaze with glowing colors thanks to trans-
planted folks from cooler climes, bringing some
of their “roots” with them. And of course, the
weather does have to kick in with a cold snap or
two to get the colors going.
I was having coffee the other day at a harvest
festival, feeling like a contented cat, looking at
a nearby tree sporting a canopy of bright green
leaves, with individual branches of red, yellow,
amber and gold. Lovely! The local newspaper
even prints a “fall color” guide sometimes.
Become a “leaf peeper.” Take a walk along the
creek at McClellan Ranch Park - check out the
trees around the library and City Hall - find
your favorite “fall color” neighborhood. Read
Joyce Kilmer’s famous poem about trees.
Fall brings remembrance on November 11 every
year: Armistice Day. Many programs on televi-
sion this year, much to think about. Take time to
contemplate our many blessings and remember to
be thankful. The sacrifices made by so many who
came before us allow us to enjoy the freedoms we
have. In that frame of mind, the month of Novem-
ber ends with the great American celebration of
Thanksgiving. Depending on what part of the coun-
try or other country you are from, your Thanksgiv-
ing dinner may be a varied cultural taste treat.
One of my favorite books is The Southern Heri-
tage Pies and Pastry Cookbook. Our family tree
is more mid-western and western than southern,
but I’ve never met a pecan I didn’t like, so here
is an offering from its pie-smudged pages.
Bourbon Chocolate Pecan Pie
3 eggs
1/4 c. plus 2 tbs. butter or margarine, melted
3/4 c. light corn syrup
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar
2 tbs. bourbon
1 tbs. all purpose flour
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 c. chopped pecans
1 c. semisweet chocolate morsels
1 unbaked (9 inch) pastry shell
- Beat eggs in a large mixing bowl until frothy.
- Add butter, beating well.
- Add syrup, sugar, bourbon, flour and vanilla;
beat well.
- Stir in pecans.
- Sprinkle chocolate morsels in pastry shell.
- Pour pecan mixture over chocolate morsels.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until set.
- Cool before slicing.
- Voila! Death by BCP pie.
For those readers who like history and pies, this
is a great book for pumpkin pies, sweet potato
pies, berry pies, fruit pies, cheesecakes, tarts,
“ice-box” pies and many others. The photo-
graphs, color illustrations and historical paint-
ings and commentary are a visual treat.
Y’all have a wonderful Thanksgiving, count
your blessings and don’t forget to take a walk
after dinner.

america recycles day
WalmosT everyThing can be recycled
On November 15, millions of people
will learn about recycling, commit
to increasing their recycling ac-
tivities and plan to purchase more
products made from recycled materi-
als. In its eighth year, America Recycles Day
reminds all Americans of our nation’s bounty
and of our responsibility as stewards to care
for our resources. Where we cannot prevent or
reduce waste, we should find ways to recycle.
When we go to the store, we should seek
environmentally preferable products, including
those with recycled content.
In the spirit of America Recycles Day, here are
some things you can do to make a difference:
Reduce: When shopping, avoid over-packaged
goods; buy in bulk when possible; only buy what
you need. Leave grass clippings on the lawn and
consider composting other yard waste.
Reuse: Avoid single-use throwaway products
when a durable, reusable alternative is available.
Support thrift shops and other programs that
provide access to used items. Donate things so
somebody else can use them.
Recycle: Buy more recycled content products. In-
crease recycling efforts at home, school and work.
Your attitude and your actions can make a world of
difference. Let’s each do our part because almost
everything can be recycled, except the planet.
To find out how to recycle just about anything,
visit the Recycling Hotline: www.recyclestuff.
org. To find out more about recycling in Cuper-
tino, visit the city’s website at www.cupertino.
org/environmental_services.
10 THINgS YOU CAN DO TO PROTECT THE CLIMATE
The City organization takes seriously its task
of community stewardship including resource
conservation and pollution prevention. Here
are 10 things you can do to help protect the
environment:
1. Drive Smart – Cut down on speeding, rapid
acceleration and heavy braking. Inefficient
driving can reduce gas mileage by 30%.
2. Pull the Plug – Disconnect electronic devices
that are not in use. Passive usage now ac-
counts for 10% of all home energy use.
3. Think Before You Fly – Take vacations closer to
home and use teleconferences for work meet-
ings. Air travel is one of the fastest-growing
producers of greenhouse gas emissions.
4. 2 Degrees = 2,000 Pounds - Set the thermostat
2 degrees higher in the summer and lower in
the winter to save one ton of carbon emis-
sions yearly.
5. Turn off the Tap – Save water and save en-
ergy: 20% of electricity and 30% of natural
gas in California is used just to transport,
treat and heat water and wastewater.
6. Light Right – Replace incandescent light
bulbs with compact fluorescents that use
60% less energy.
7. Take the Oil Out of Your Food – Buy more
local groceries and products instead of items
that must be transported long-distance.
8. Lose the Trash – Use products with less
packaging. Manufacturing, transporting
and disposing of packaging all contribute to
greenhouse gas emissions.
9. Cancel Your Carbon – Calculate your green-
house gas emissions, then pay to “offset”
the damage by funding alternative energy,
reforestation and other green actions.
10. Be Loud – Talk to your clients, vendors,
community leaders and elected officials.
Tell them you want climate protection to be
“business as usual.”
SwITCH FROM wOOD TO gAS - LIMITED
REBATES AvAILABLE
Santa Clara County residents can make a clean
air choice and save money too! The Bay Area Air
Quality Management District is offering rebates
when you replace your woodburning appliance
with one that uses natural gas instead. Switching
from burning wood to using gas will reduce air
pollution and improve air quality in Cupertino.
By Lavenia Millar, Cupertino Environment Programs Manager
Cupertino Scene | Volume 25, #13 | November 2007 p. 13p. 12 Cupertino Scene | Volume 25, #13 | November 2007 Cupertino Scene | Volume 25, #13 | November 2007 p. 13
The following rebates are offered:
• $100 to retrofit an existing fireplace by
installing a new gas log set or a new insert.
• $300 to replace an existing woodburning
stove or fireplace insert (must be 1990 or
older) with a new gas appliance. Your old
woodstove must be scrapped at Pick Your
Part in Milpitas.
You do not need to install a new gas line in order
to be eligible. New gas appliances may be pur-
chased anywhere. Since funding is limited, there
is no rebate guarantee. First come—first served.
To check availability call 1.800.HELP.AIR or
for more information about the program, visit:
www.sparetheair.org.
wOODBURNINg TIPS
Those cozy wood fires unfortunately contribute
up to one-third of the particulate matter in the
air on cold, still winter nights. Particulate mat-
ter is a health concern especially for children,
seniors and persons with respiratory problems.
Here are a few tips on how to reduce the pollu-
tion in your neighborhood:
• Instead of wood, use manufactured fire logs
(they burn 50% cleaner).
• If you burn wood, make sure it’s dried or
“seasoned” for six to 12 months.
• Never burn garbage or chemically-treated wood
• Consider switching to a gas fireplace (for the
ambiance of a wood fire without the gases
and the pollution).
To get an illustrated copy of the California Air
Resources Board’s Woodburning Handbook, call
our local air district offices at 800-HELP-AIR,
or view on-line at www.sparetheair.org under
“Site Index”. You can also find the free handbook
at the Quinlan Community Center and City Hall.

FLOOD PREPARATION
As this year’s rainy season begins, residents
should check to be sure that they’re prepared
for the possibility of flooding in their neighbor-
hoods. Those with property located in a flood
zone especially should be aware that standard
homeowner’s insurance policies do not cover
losses caused by floods or mudslides. Property
owners can protect against potential flood
damage by purchasing flood insurance and by
preparing a family disaster plan.
According to the Santa Clara Valley Water
District, some areas in Cupertino along Cala-
bazas Creek are considered at risk for flooding;
property near Stevens Creek is also at risk, but
to a lesser degree.
The city provides the following services to help
residents prepare for potential flooding:
1. Residents can find out if their property is
in a flood zone by visiting the Cupertino
Public Works Department (call 777.3354 for
details). The Public Works Department also
offers elevation certificates for new buildings
constructed in the floodplain.
2. The City’s Building Department has a book-
let called “What You Should Know Before
You Hire a Contractor”. Booklets are avail-
able at the downstairs counter at City Hall.
3. Other information on flood preparedness is
available on the Cupertino website at www.
cupertino.org/emergency and at City Hall.
4. Additional flood protection information and
assistance can be obtained on the FEMA
website at www.fema.gov and the Santa
Clara Valley Water District website www.
valleywater.org click on “emergency”.
5. The Cupertino Library also holds publica-
tions for flood preparedness.
The city’s storm drainage system is composed of
street gutters, storm drain sewer inlets (at street
corners), and pipes that connect the inlets to lo-
cal creeks. This system drains street runoff into
the creeks and channels on the valley floor.
Residents can assist the city and help protect
their immediate neighborhood from localized
flooding, by sweeping gutters regularly and
checking that nearby storm drain grates are not
covered with leaves or litter. Residents should
abide by street sweeping/no parking signs to
allow the city to keep the gutters clean and the
storm drain system flowing. The city routinely
sweeps the gutters in residential areas twice a
month and in commercial areas once a week.
In the fall, before the rains start, a city contrac-
tor vacuums out city storm drain inlets and
checks for any evidence of hazardous materi-
als in the drains. This cleaning prevents any
illegally dumped materials that may be sitting
in the inlets, from washing into our creeks with
the first rains.
It is illegal to dump anything into a creek or a
storm drain. Residents can report dumping inci-
dents to the city by calling 777.3269 during of-
fice hours and 911 after hours and on weekends.
During emergency flooding situations:
• Get up-to-date information on Cupertino’s
radio station 1670 AM or on the Emergency
Information section of Cupertino’s website at
www.cupertino.org/emergencyinfo.
• Sandbags are available at the City Corpora-
tion Yard on Mary Ave. Instructions on how
to build a sandbag wall are available on the
Santa Clara Valley Water District website.
• Never drive through running water – water
as shallow as 6” deep can float a car.
• Never play in flood water. There may be hid-
den hazards and health risks.
IT’S EASY TO STAY SAFE. EDUCATION IS THE kEY.
