Hill Street Baptist church Fall festival was good, lots of vendors, food and fun for the kids!
District Advisory Board meeting was held on Tuesday instead of a Monday at the Knights of St. John. We talked about community safety as well as upcoming events for district 3.
Schardein cemetery cleanup was good. Over 30 volunteers showed up to work. It was cold but we got a lot accomplished thanks to Trees Louisville and Planet Fitness!
Delivered Speed bump surveys to a few constituents who inquired about safer streets in their neighborhoods.
Shively City Council meeting discussed public works issues in the city as well as constituent concerns.
St. Denis AVC meeting discussed more plans for the next round of funding.
 We are so thankful to Trees Louisville and their volunteers with Planet Fitness for helping mow and clean up Schardein Cemetery. We have reached out to the Anthropology Department at the University of Louisville for more information regarding the people buried there and the history of the plot of land. It was originally for the Schardein family (as shown above), and was started in about 1860! If you suspect you may have relative buried at Schardein, please reach out to ceminfo@louisville.edu, and a University of Louisville representative will be able to help you!
We also want to extend a special thanks to former Councilman Brandon Coan for his assistance facilitating the connection between our office and the Planet Fitness volunteers. We look forward to continuing to work with former Councilman Coan and the University of Louisville for initiatives to help our seniors age in place, and to protect and preserve housing in our community.

Budget-Friendly Superfoods to Boost Your Diet
Most people might have the idea that eating healthy can be expensive, but it is possible to do it without breaking the bank. From fruits and vegetables to pantry staples, there are a wide variety of value-friendly nutrients. Check out the list below for some superfood ideas that can easily fit into any meal plan and budget!
-
Beans (canned or dry): These protein-packed powerhouses are full of antioxidants, fiber, and essential minerals. Along with their many uses, beans provide a satisfying fullness and can be tossed into soups, tacos, stir-fries, and more.
-
Frozen and canned produce: Fruits and vegetables are often less expensive when purchased as frozen or canned goods while still carrying similar benefits. For canned items, look for foods that have been packed in water (as opposed to syrup) and be sure to rinse them prior to use to avoid added salt.
-
Oats: Old-fashioned oats are a pantry essential and can provide a healthy source of protein and fiber. Look to pair this with nuts, berries, honey, and the like to build a filling breakfast bowl. Alternatively, oats can be ground up and used as a flour-substitute.
-
Eggs: This low-cost food staple is nutrient-dense and packed with protein, healthy fats, and vitamins like B12 and D. They demonstrate incredibly versatility from the breakfast plate to dinner options like stir-fry.
-
Sweet potatoes: Full of beta-carotene, a vitamin that supports vision and immune health, sweet potatoes are a fantastic source for carbohydrates. Pair them as an addition to any meal. For a quick prep option, slice them up and toss them in a bit of oil and spices to bake.
The next time you are set for a grocery run, think to look for a few of these items to add to some affordable nutrients to your diet. For more information and a greater selection for food options, check out the resources below!
