From staying at an upscale hotel in Chicago, to participating in the National Day of Service, the members were busy! The attending members wanted to share their experiences with you. "Chicago was a lot of fun," FFA Advisor Nicole Abel said....
My fear of using the pressure cooker is rational and understandable. My first experience with this kitchen monster, was when my mother was in a rush to make chicken soup; she decided to use the stainless-steel stove top pressure cooker, so we could have the soup that evening. I’m not sure of the specifics, or what was the catalyst for the catastrophe, but suddenly my sister and I heard a loud blast from the kitchen, screams followed by colorful words I didn’t even know she knew, a loud his...
Many times, when people attend art festivals and see an item they like, they say, “I could make that myself.” And then they never do. But Nancy Waldron is different. The first time the Colfax artist saw a rope basket in a catalog, she figured it would be no problem replicating the item, and proceeded to try. “I figured I could make my own,” Waldron remembers. “Being a team roper, I had more than a few old ropes lying around. “Well I was wrong. I had no clue how to make them. My first attem...
When we moved to Waitsburg in 2017, my husband, Ray, hired on to the Blue Mountain Team of the McGregor Co. Once a year, the company invites their employees and their spouses to a weekend at the Coeur d’Alene Resort for their annual Company Dinner, and this past weekend, I got a brief look at the ins and outs of a company that keeps the agriculture world growing; quite literally. Founded in 1882, the McGregor Co. has its roots deep in the little town of Hooper, Wash. What was once a sheep r...
If you watched the Country Music Awards last night, you may have caught the opening performance by the 'super-group' The Highwomen. With a play on the name of the Highwaymen, the outlaw country supergroup that included Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Kris Kristofferson, the four women who make up the group are a potent follow-up to their male counterparts. The Highwomen include Brandi Carlile, Natalie Hemby, Maren Morris and Amanda Shires. Their self-titled album was released on...
I had put a recipe in called the same, though it was a little more complicated. I found this handwritten one in my recipe drawer and it's the one I had made before. One can't get more "fall" than apples and acorn squash. If you would like the other version, please let me know. It made more stuffing and used sage and mushrooms. It also added an egg to the mixture. In my notes, I didn't say whether I used one or two acorn squash. One of my downfalls when I copy a recipe is I think I will remember. I'm going to say two, but if you use up the...

I wish I could report on the Mountain Apple Cobbler, like I said I was going to make for the church potluck. I ran out of time and energy so I just made the crescent rolls!! Honestly, I don’t know where the time goes. So now I have a bottle of Mountain Dew to drink or do something with. Here is another one I found in Clean and Dry’s pamphlet they send out. I will make this because I still have partial opened canned pumpkin to use. And it uses unsweetened applesauce and very little sugar. INGREDIENTS: 2 c. whole wheat flour 2 tsp baking powder 1...

While drinking my morning coffee, a “news story” posted by VOX Media popped up on my phone. The article asks the question “is it possible that the dinner party has died with the millennial generation?” The short answer is: No! But the times have changed, and with it, millennials have adapted the dinner party to fit their lifestyle. The article harkens back to some sage advice from Martha Stewart; i.e., parties should have a theme, cooking should commence about a week in advance, and of course,...
Way back in the last century, my father, a teacher at Eastern Washington University in Cheney, WA, let me know that I could go to any college I wanted to: as long as it was located in Washington state and was a public institution. With an older brother and sister already attending the University of Washington, we simply didn't have the funds for any other type of choice. I remember briefly considering The Evergreen State College, but having visited my siblings in Seattle, I was pretty excited...
I am totally going to try this. We have a church potluck coming up next Sunday, and it's a breakfast potluck, I'm declaring this to be also ok for a morning treat. I was going to put in the Pumpkin Yeast Bread that I made, but I wasn't overly impressed with it. The recipe calls for a cup and half of pumpkin but the pumpkin taste doesn't really come throughw. The bread was a bit heavy, maybe because I used bread flour and wasn't able to get in the required six and half cups of flour. Anyway, all that to say, I won't make it again. This recipe...
