Writer/Director Greta Gerwig’s (Lady Bird) new adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s 1868 novel Little Women was a marvelous Christmas gift for this viewer on that day. With a runtime of 135 minutes, the Civil War era domestic drama offered a plethora of viewing pleasures; a lively cast, beautiful outdoor settings, and delightful costuming among them. Although familiar with the basic story line, it had been awhile since I had read the novel, and I never got around to seeing the 1994 version sta...
Remember I said I would do the Christmas Scones recipe this week, but call it New Year's Scones? Well, I guess I'll have to rename them again. This recipe came to my email and it sounded good. I didn't make it yet but I will. When it's cold and dampish outside, a hot meal hits the spot, as well as fresh made soup. If you don't eat pork, I think a nice thick hamburger steak would substitute nicely. I will make mashed or baked potatoes to go with, but rice or noodles would also be good. This week I came across a recipe for Kielbasa with Brussel...

Photo caption: Bulldog Dain Henderson lays one up on the basket. The high-pitched radio tones went off at 3 a.m. The dispatcher’s voice followed. A serious rollover accident. Gabe Kiefel knew this would be his big test on the Waitsburg Ambulance crew. Twenty-Five Y...

It's not until you spend time in the city that you realize how much space there is in the country. As a lifelong small town girl, I consider "city" to mean Spokane, Portland, or anything on the west side of Washington State nestled next to Puget Sound. I can't even imagine Hong Kong. And while I enjoy the sights and sounds and lights and activity of the city, what I love about the country is its landscapes-those winding gravel roads that leisurely wend their way past meadows and fields, "empty"...
I just returned from a quick trip to Southern California, which started with a visit to my sister in Laguna Hills. Conveniently, I scheduled my flight to arrive at dinner time because Laguna Hills has a very dynamic Asian community, and I was ready for some good sushi or Chinese food. We settled on a wonderful Chinese restaurant, where the special that night was Peking Duck. Needless to say, we enjoyed it! Two days later, I headed up to Los Angeles for work and to visit friends, where I happily...
I know I have posted this before but I was vacillating between a few others and this one won. A scones recipe called Christmas Scones came into my email but I think I will call it New Year's Scones and share that one next week. Another one came in called Sweet and Sour Meatballs. Interesting mixture with sauerkraut, canned jelled cranberry, brown sugar, and spaghetti sauce. I told Joe about it and he said he had a bottle of sweet and sour sauce. Yes, but not with sauerkraut in it!! I'm still pondering that one. I have made this with and...

Ten Years Ago December 24, 2009 Shannon Elliott had the gift of making others feel special. She was a young woman who always had a smile on her face and plenty of time for people. “She always made you feel like you’d just made her day when she saw you,” said retired third-grade teacher Sandy McCaw. McCaw is among the many in Waitsburg who are mourning Elliott’s death last Friday in a collision along U. S. Highway 12 at Airport Road. She was 23 years old. Photo caption: Waitsburg Troop Leader...

I'm going to squeeze two in because many will look at the name, persimmon pudding, and think, "not interested!" but perhaps the pretzels will interest you-like Bill P. My friend, Martha, shared some of the persimmon pudding with me. It is not a pudding, like we think of, but a moist bread. I would not have tried it, either baking or tasting, had not I been gifted some. I had no idea what a persimmon was, except perhaps a crayon color. I found them at Andy's. Martha said they had to get squishy...

One thing that I would be really excited for is a kitty cat for Christmas named Boy. One gift I would like to give is a snowy night to my sister because I want her to play in it.

One thing that I would be really excited for is going to my grandma and...
How to Diamante Waitsburg Elementary School’s second grade teacher Wenda Parr tasked her students with writing a diamante poem. A diamante poem creates the shape of a diamond. The poem can be used in two ways, either comparing and contrasting two different subjects, or naming synonyms at the beginning of the poem and then antonyms for the second half for a subject.
