First, I made the zucchini soup this weekend, adding potatoes like Wendy did. The crockpot was full. I added a lot of fresh tomatoes we needed to use up and added water, as the can of tomatoes didn't have a lot of juice. We also added, besides the sausage, a few bratwurst, cooked and frozen, into it. I got a late start so I had to put it all in a large soup pan on the stove top to finish. Very good and so good for you. This tuna recipe came to my email from Allrecipes.com. I like...

Waitsburg resident Mary Rhoades took this photo of her grandchildren Isaiah and Corianne Berg meeting up with Batman and talking on the Commissioner's telephone at Walla Walla's downtown branch of Baker Boyer Bank. The bank pulled out all the stops in celebration of Adam West Day on Friday, September 20....
Many people are attached to their first baby blanket, and a surprising number of adults still possess it in parts or entirety. Generally, it's a quilt, fuzzy fleece, or knitted/crocheted heirloom. Artist Sandra Haynes possesses such an heirloom, but it's . . . different from the standard baby blanket. Haynes' childhood treasure is a bobcat hide, taken from an animal that her mother shot when it was raiding the family henhouse. "Being around wild animals has always been a part of my life,"...
Over the last few years I have not only learned an appreciation for short films, but I have come to love them. I am now a fan of Vimeo, a short film presentation venue (look it up!). I am constantly amazed at the ingenuity, creativity and risk involved in being able to tell a story in 10-20 minutes. Some great things come in very small packages. The Manhattan Short Film Festival is something folks have come to expect and anticipate at the Liberty Theater each year. This is an artistic showcase...
Enjoy the Games!...
I ran this recipe in 2017, but Julie B asked me for it again. A while ago, I accidently deleted my recipe file, then deleted my recycle bin file. I was able to find it in our Dropbox application, so score one for technology! I was going to make it for dinner, but we had to use up some chicken so I will make it later. Like most, we have an abundance of tomatoes to use plus a large gifted zucchini. Julie said the soup is very tasty and freezes well. We are on the downside of light dinners but not quite ready for heavy winter dinners. This soup...

Now that summer has dropped off into a very abrupt fall, it's time for warm cozy comfort foods, and more importantly, pie. I had a few delicious bites at the Pioneer Fall Festival and now I want more. And even though national pie day is March 14, it's never too late to celebrate. Usually when I make pie filling, it's done by feeling, or by random amount of fruit I happen to have on hand. I end up with too much filling for one pie, but not enough for two and thus how the sweet potato pie and...
Ten Years Ago August 27, 2009 A slight breeze kept the bees away while everyone enjoyed lots of good conversation, food and a little music from the Blue Mountain Troublemakers, at the Hockersmith place on Rocky Point last weekend. Prompted by fascinating stories from Bettie Chase, Ivan Keve, and the Hap Cline series about the community that used to be, several Jasper Mountain families spent the afternoon on the mountain. Touchet will honor retiring football coach, Wayne Dickey, during a special...

Enjoy a moment of frivolity in this crazy world....
While Teeny's away I'm tipping open my recipe box to share one that never ceases to amaze. My Honeybee thought this up many years ago in Seattle and suggested it for dinner one night when I, skeptical, said sure. Our first attempt wasn't pretty, that was before we realized toothpicks would be necessary to hold it all together while the bacon cooked up. We like spicy, but for those who aren't into spicy food, jalapeno peppers can be traded out for anaheim or white peppers that look the part, but...
Carol White – Waitsburg: My husband and I built a deck this summer. It’s quite unique as the railings are made of driftwood and have some artwork burned into corner posts. I also spent a lot of time with my super-most-awesome grand-kids! We got our hippy on and made tie dye shirts and bags. It was a great but very short summer vacation. Rebecca Wilson – Waitsburg: This summer was the summer of travel. Shortly after school was out, I went on a trip of a lifetime with the Kirkman house (Joan Helm, etc.) traveling to Ireland. I met some fanta...
