In partnership with the Suffolk Office of Minority Health and the Witness Project, the Bridgehampton Child Care and Recreational Center will host a day focused on heart health on Saturday.

The 43rd Turkey Day Run for Fun, started by John Keeshan and sponsored by the East Hampton Town Recreation Department, will be held on Thanksgiving Day at 10 a.m., rain or shine.

“Climate Reality Amplified,” a multimedia musical program on the Climate Reality Project, an initiative chaired by former vice president Al Gore, will be shown at the Montauk Library next Thursday at 5 p.m.

Recorded messages from David Gruber, the EH Fusion party’s supervisor candidate, in the lead up to the election, appeared to be coming from former East Hampton Town supervisor Larry Cantwell’s number. They weren’t.

Bread, pies, and tarts can be frozen until ready to use.

A few days' mellowing improves the chutney.

A humpback whale was found dead in the surf at Halsey Neck Lane in Southampton Village on Thursday morning. 

Galettes are rustic French open-topped pastries, usually made with fruits. Inspired by some reading I was doing on the food of Southwest France, where most of France's pumpkins are grown, I decided to try putting the two ideas together for something new to do with pumpkin or its many cousins (Hubbards, butternut, acorn, Turk's turban, or sweet dumpling [Delicata] squashes).

Broccoli puree will not only keep for several days, but could be frozen until ready to use.

While I like all poultry headed for the smoker, gas grill, or oven to be brined at least for a few hours, for a more emphatic flavoring, a brine cum marinade works wonderfully. It's also useful when you don't want to cook your bird for a couple of days. This turkey was left in its marinade in a large covered canner (on the floor of a near-freezing garage colder than my refrigerator) for three days. Carved in thin, small slices this 15-pounder goes a long, long way for a buffet or cocktail party fare.

That the EH Fusion Party's candidates for supervisor, town board, and trustees had lost their respective races by wide margins does not convey the scale of their defeat.

Make this the day before Thanksgiving and you will have only to add the drippings from the turkey on the great day when you're all hassled anyway. Refrigerate it and reheat it while the turkey is being carved.

As neighbors get buried lines in East Hampton Village, this couple will lose their "only piece of blue sky."

Get your little pumpkins right away because they will all be spoiled if they freeze in the field and they keep wonderful at garage temperature. A gang of them arranged on a huge white platter with sprigs of kale for garnish are almost as spectacular as the bird.

Scallops, broccoli, potatoes, and beach plums pay homage to local bounty which, I believe, is an equally important aspect of the Thanksgiving celebration.

Turkey on the grill is perhaps my favorite route to a juicy, brown bird - it's fast too. But the stuffing must be cooked separately via oven casserole, which I always do anyway, since even a stuffed bird never has enough stuffing to satisfy my family and friends.

Patchita Tennant's attorney says the prosecution's version of events has changed, but their position that she was the victim of abuse and not the aggressor that night will not change.

Eight months after dozens of amateur and professional musicians crowded East Hampton Town Hall to protest proposed changes to the music entertainment permit required of commercial establishments, the town board on Tuesday considered a new set of revisions recommended by its business advisory committee.
