An Affair on the Square Craft Fest will open at 11am on Sunday, August 8th and run until 5pm. The Craft Fest will take place in the beautifully preserved historic downtown park of Medina. The Square will abound with crafts and crafters from all across Ohio. Affair on the Square draws crafters from all over Ohio offering home decoration, gift items and hand-made items. There will be over 150 crafters showcasing their jewelry, woodcrafts, photographs, glass, ceramics, fabrics and much more. People from miles around gather on the Square to shop for those unique items and enjoy the blues and Dixieland jazz music billowing from the bandstand. Sunday’s entertainment will be featuring the Hollywood Slim Band (blues) from 11am to 1pm and the New Orleans Stompers (Dixieland jazz) from 2pm to 5pm.
Along with the crafters, Mapleside Farms Apple Farm Restaurant will offer sandwiches and drinks. Old fashion popcorn will be available from Kettle Korn.
While you are at the craft show, many of the Main Street Medina members will be holding a Sidewalk Sale. Enjoy wandering the Square and maybe you will find special sale items or dine at one the restaurants.
Valley City Frog Jump
What are you doing August 15, 2010? If you have plans, you may want to change them and come to Valley City, Ohio for the 49th Annual Frog Jump. Bring your own, rent one once you arrive or just come to enjoy the fun and excitement of the 2010 Frog Jump.
The Frog Jump begins at 10am with jumping starting at 11am and ends around 5:30pm or 6pm. It is held at Mill Stream Park off Maple Street in Valley City. There will be kid’s games, face painting, food, music and souvenirs available.
For those who want to be in the middle of the fun and excitement, registration is at 10am. There is a registration fee. Bring your own frog or rent one once you arrive. Be brave and search for your own frog and find that jumper in your neighborhood pond so you can show off when you win the 2010 Frog Jump.
Some basic instructions for catching your own frog: It is best if they are caught the night before the jump, be sure to keep them moist. Start by going out after dark. Have a cotton or burlap bag and a flashlight. A second person to hold the bag with make things easier. Step into the pond and quickly walk near the bank. When you see the frog, shine the flashlight in its eyes and hold the light there until you grab him. Place him in the bag and keep the bag moist. If you put it in a container, be sure to put water in the container and a rock for it to sit on. Do not put it in a plastic bag as they will not get enough air. So catch a frog and come to Valley City for a fun afternoon.
Directions to Valley City: from I-71, exit at Rt 303 and follow Rt 303 west to Valley City about 7 miles. Turn right at the fire station and follow the signs to Mill Stream Park. If using MapQuest, the address is 1295 Maple Street and it will get you there.

Recipes
Smoky Corn & Black Bean Pizza
1 plum tomato, diced
1 cup canned black beans, rinsed
1 cup fresh corn kernels (about 2 ears)
2 tablespoons cornmeal
1 pound prepared whole-wheat pizza dough
1/3 cup barbecue sauce
1 cup shredded mozzarella, preferably smoked mozzarella
Preheat grill to medium. Combine tomato, beans and corn in medium bowl. Sprinkle cornmeal onto a large baking sheet. Stretch the dough into about a 12-inch circle and lay it on top of the cornmeal, coating the entire underside of the dough. Transfer the crust from the baking sheet to the grill. Close the lid and cook until the crust is puffed and lightly browned on the bottom, 4 to 5 minutes. Using a large spatula, flip the crust. Spread barbecue sauce on it and quickly sprinkle with the tomato mixture and cheese. Close the lid; grill until the cheese is melted and the bottom of the crust is browned, 4 to 5 minutes.

Pork Tenderloin with Grilled Peach-Ginger Chutney
2 medium peaches
4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 1-1/4 pounds pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat
1/4 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh ginger
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
Preheat grill to high. Peel peaches (see Tip). Cut in half and remove the pits. Brush the cut sides with 2 teaspoons oil. Brush pork with the remaining 2 teaspoons oil; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Grill the pork, turning occasionally, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 160 degrees, 14 to 18 minutes. Meanwhile, place the peaches, cut-side down, on the grill rack. Grill, turning occasionally, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the pork and peaches to a cutting board. Let the peaches cool slightly while the pork rests. Whisk ginger, brown sugar, vinegar and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Chop the peaches and add them to the ginger sauce; stir to combine. Slice the pork on the diagonal into 8 pieces. Serve topped with the peach chutney.
Tip: To peel peaches: Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Immerse peaches in boiling water for 1 minute. Remove with a slotted spoon and plunge into a bowl of ice water to cool slightly. Transfer to a cutting board. Remove the skins with a paring knife.
