The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

This came into my email. I had not thought of the spinach dip for a while and, truth be told, I hadn’t thought of it period, because it has sour cream, like most dips. But I do know it is popular a... Full story

This is one of many overnight breakfast recipes. I have used this one several times. My thought is to share it this week in case you wanted to use it maybe for Christmas morning and needed to get a...

Sigh! This is what I do instead of dusting.  This caught my eye because I had plenty of cranberries from the sweet potato recipe, plenty of walnuts, and a half-gallon of orange juice. The only t...

A recipe from England This recipe is shared by Susan Jensen. In our delightful conversation, it turned to recipes. I asked her if she had any to share. She shared several, which will be fun to try....

I put this in last year about this time. At the time I had not made it, but it is very good!! Wes L. my friend who is always encouraging, said even the kids liked this when they made it for...

These were sent to me by Bill Rodgers. The same guy who gifts us with great photography and shares his abundance of unique irises. Bill had brought over a salad for us who stay late on Tuesdays to get...

I shared this before and it was one of the most popular ones. It uses a lot of eggs and milk so it makes a great breakfast dish, or if you are like me, I like a breakfast dinner. What surprised me...

Seriously, a pie crust.  Everyone has their favorite recipe, many handed down. In Home Ec, we were taught the basic 1 cup flour, 1/3 cup shortening, salt, water version. This one is similar, but h...

Who doesn’t like an apple fritter? As I mentioned, I wanted to make it first. Well, the loaf is half gone!!!! Thank goodness I have an in-house taster.  I saw a recipe come to my email for a sal...

I almost put in a recipe for Apple Fritter Bread but wanted to make it first! For those who love Brussels sprouts, this will give you something new to do with them, those who don’t (thinking of B...

I didn’t make this and I’m not sure I will because I’d probably eat the whole thing. Or I might make it and put it in baggies to give away, if there is enough left over to do so.  I think one cou...

Don’t be turned off by the list of ingredients. This goes together quickly. It had a five-star rating and we really liked it. Since rice takes 20 minutes, get that started first. I got the i...

I put this into the recipe column probably last fall or so. Believe it or not, fall is almost here and this recipe is very fall-ish. Acorn squash and apples. Speaking of apples, it’s time to s...

Push the Staples Easy Button on this one!! I’ve done a few French toast casseroles, including a blueberry cream cheese one. This casserole makes its own syrup on the bottom with brown sugar and b...

This caught my eye so I decided to make it. I’ve never picked blackberries before. I asked my friend if she had them on her property. She said she had lots and be sure to wear long sleeves and j...

Another one I didn’t make, and probably won’t as it has sour cream, but it got 5 stars. Some of the reviews mentioned adding bacon and cheese, and more seasonings. I’m sure like most salads, you c...

Well, this is a combination I would not have thought of, but apparently it’s not uncommon. I didn’t make it this weekend but I may later. I love a good peach, love a fresh tomato so the com...

“These really taste like crab cakes but without the crab, and are a really good way to utilize that bumper crop,” says Patty Jo on All Recipes.com. This recipe caught my attention for several rea...

I have posted this one before and made it this weekend because I harvested my first zucchini. So many choices as to what to make with zucchini! I decided, going with the theme of Farm to Table, I...

I have shared this before. Always I get compliments to say it is the best-baked beans they’ve ever had. There are a lot of great baked bean recipes. This one is unusual as it has pineapple, onion, a...

I bought some local strawberries and have really been smitten by the fresh, fruity, and sweet taste. We cut them up, add a bit of sugar, and put them on whatever we can find. I recently made the...
