I had mentioned this recipe awhile back and said I couldn’t find it. I found it and made it this weekend. It makes two loaves and I wanted one for the freezer for company coming in a few weeks. I’ll serve with strawberries and blueberries that we still have in the freezer, sort of a kick -start to spring. No, I did not make a typo, as I have been known to do in the past. It really does take eight eggs and a pound of butter. INGREDIENTS 2 ½ c. granulated sugar 2 c. unsalted butter (4 sticks)...

Editor's Note: We need you! In an effort to promote positivity The Times will run a "Cheers!" section each week. This is like "Cheers and Jeers" section but without the "Jeers." If readers see or hear something that deserves a pat on the back or sparks inspiration, send it to dena@waitsburgtimes.com with the subject line "Cheers!" This could be a photo, or simply be a sentence such as: "Thanks to the lady in the grocery store who saw my fussy toddler and let us cut in line" or "Mrs. B's flower...
Here are a couple of recipes that are quick and easy to make. They don't need a lot of chit-chat so I'm hoping to get two in. FIRST Oh my gosh! I need a correction to the meat loaf recipe. I try to proof read but this one got by me. A fella came into the Times office, already laughing and mentioned the recipe. I said, yes I do them. He said the meat loaf recipe has an error in it, again laughing, which was contagious. So I picked up the paper and glanced thru it. Sure enough, it calls for 34 cups of milk, not ¾ c. milk. By then I was l...

Waitsburg photographer Bill Rodgers submitted this stunning photo of Waitsburg nestled in a valley of snow-covered hills last week. He optimistically titled the shot, taken from Middle Waitsburg Road, 'Winter's Last Gasp.' As The Times is prepping for press on this March 12, I sit at my desk to once again see flakes falling from the sky. Let's hope this truly is winter's last gasp. I think we're all more than ready for spring....
Ten Years Ago March 19, 2009 A surprise phone call from Waitsburg to San Francisco was how 2008 Commercial Club Community Service Award winners Wayne and Ruth Peterson of Waitsburg were informed and congratulated for receiving the honor. Master of Ceremonies Tom Baker introduced the Community Service Award presentation with an odd reference to a “being similar to a marriage—except we’re only lacking a bride and groom.” With that Baker went on to announce the Peterson’s honor. After finishing second in the Alpine Slalom and third in both the Alp...

Since St. Patrick’s Day is coming up, this came into my email. I’ve never made it before. Most breads I make are made with yeast. It’s in the oven as I type so we will see. I’m making my meatloaf dinner tonight.**The meatloaf turned out very flavorful, using 2 pounds of hamburger and 3 bratwurst, skins off and mixed in, then onions, egg, bread crumbs, Meatloaf seasoning, extra pepper, and garlic salt. Worthy of meatloaf sandwiches;) The ‘real” Irish soda bread consists simply of Irish whole...

First, and honestly, I don't know if I will make this as it calls for making it in a crockpot, which may be the reason you make it. For me, I make meatloaf much like a stir –fry. It's never the same and it depends on what I have at the time. We grew up with Mom putting crushed soda crackers in, instead of bread crumbs (which I never measure). If I have a packaged meat loaf seasoning on hand, I use it, if not, a little of this, a little of that. I use the eggs, and most of the time, onions and, if I plan ahead, sausage. I use about 1 ½ po...
WAITSBURG – Dr. Roger Hevel and his wife, Laura Jean, have been cornerstones of the Waitsburg community for decades. Laura Jean, who passed away in December, at the age of 93 was always ready to greet a neighbor with a warm smile and a kind word. She was also a strong community activist and philanthropist. While looking through past city council minutes, City Manager Randy Hinchliffe recently ran across these minutes from July of 1971. In them, Laura Jean was unanimously nominated to city c...
