A Mediterranean salad made with chickpeas, black beans, lots of fresh herbs and lemon juice. I saw a piece of paper in the fax, and 99.9% of the time it is insurance advertisement or wonderful trips for unbelievable prices. I was surprised to see this recipe. I'm not sure if someone faxed it to me, because it came with no note, but I took it as a sign that it needed to go in this week. For several reasons. It is listed as a gluten-free, vegetarian, or vegan side, salad, or dip option to serve at Super Bowl. The other reason is I didn't have...
* If your dryer is taking a long time to run its cycle and the clothes STILL aren’t dry, check your lint trap. Follow the hose all the way to the end, and be sure to check the grate that is in place where the hose exits an exterior wall. Lint can build up here, making it hard for heat and steam to escape. It’s also a fire hazard. * “In our house, we use nail polish to distinguish whose plastic leftover containers are whose. My roommate and I both bought the same set (a good deal!), and we painted a little X on the bottom and on the top of the l...

Ten Years Ago January 31, 2007 Breaking with a decades-long tradition, the Board of Directors of the Waitsburg Commercial Club voted unanimously to forgo sponsorship of a caucus for the 2008 City of Waitsburg at a special meeting on January 24. The caucus system was instituted by Commercial Club to put forth a slate of candidates in times of tepid interest among the citizenry. While Caris Cole, Shawny Ingle and Felicia Brown scored in the double figures to power the Lady Cardinals into contention against the Asotin Panthers, it was timely...

* Those who make the finest wigs from human hair typically avoid buying hair from Americans. Evidently, hair grown in the United States is more likely to have damage caused by hairspray, hairdryers, dyes and pollutants. * You might be surprised to learn that the tiny nation of the Netherlands, located barely 1,000 miles from the Arctic Circle, is the world leader in yield for tomato production, producing 144,352 tons of tomatoes per square mile under cultivation. * In 1900, a prairie dog colony was found in Texas. That’s not surprising -- p...
While putting away a recipe booklet, I noticed a recipe with sweet potatoes, pecans and blue cheese, and thought, 'what an interesting combination.' I had all the ingredients except the blue cheese so picked that up. I had yams instead of sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes will add a lot of color to your plate, unlike my picture. I thought the recipe might be complicated, but it isn't. First step, put the potatoes and onions in the oven, and while that is baking, sugar the pecans and cool, then put...

MOMENTS IN TIME The History Channel * On Jan. 25, 1905, at the Premier Mine in South Africa, the largest diamond ever found is discovered. The 3,106-carat “Cullinan” weighed 1.33 pounds. Stonecutter Joseph Asscher studied the stone for six months before attempting the cut.

Dorothy Dean---Does that name sound familiar? When I was somewhat newly-married and had a young family, the Spokesman Review featured recipes from Dorothy Dean. They sent out pages that used the alphabet as their organizer. Every letter had an index of recipes, organized as to which collection it was-Cookies, Candies, Salads, Meat, etc, with specials like Baby Shower recipes. So it would be A-1, A-2, etc. I don't think I have all but I'm sure I have 80% of them. I can't remember if there was a cost or simply a sign up to receive these pages,...
* You’ve probably been to a restaurant with a dessert called Death by Chocolate, but the real-life event is less appetizing. After falling into a vat of boiling chocolate in New Jersey, a man died before his co-workers were able to pull him out. * It’s not known why there’s a New Jersey law banning the sale of cabbage on Sunday. * The first Band-Aid brand bandage didn’t exactly look like the Band-Aids we’re familiar with today. For instance, it was 3 inches wide and 18 inches long. A bit of overkill for a scraped elbow, I imagine. * At weddin...

* January Sales Items: Get great deals on leftover holiday decorations and cards, appliances and furniture, as well as linens, towels and other “white sale” items. * Keep a few fabric-softener sheets in the linen closet. It will keep the towels smelling fresh. If you have lots of extra bedsheets, it keeps them fresh-smelling, too. * “Whenever I have a casserole pan that has baked-on, hard-to-remove bits left behind, I fill it with water, add a little dish soap and stick it back in the warm oven. I let it sit for several hours -- even overn...

First, I have not made last week's soup recipe, because I had not picked up the garam masala spice, only to find out that my back alley neighbor has some she is willing to share so I will make the soup soon. I have not made this recipe either, but will for the church potluck. I think this is an old recipe that has been around for a while. Some of the comments were that it is a tradition for Thanksgiving and/or Christmas gatherings. I would think also for a Valentine's get together. They call it a salad, though I think it fits into the dessert...
* It was Margaret Chase Smith, the first woman to serve in both houses of the U.S. Congress, who made the following sage observation: “Those of us who shout the loudest about Americanism in making character assassinations are all too frequently those who, by our own words and acts, ignore some of the basic principles of Americanism: The right to criticize; The right to hold unpopular beliefs; The right to protest; The right of independent thought.” * According to historians, British Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill slept on silk sheets and...

Ten Years Ago January 10, 2008 The Waitsburg Fifth Grade Ski Program begins this week at Ski Bluewood and according to teacher Pam Conover, the students are “quite excited” about going skiing.

A terrific wind storm pounded Walla Walla and Milton-Freewater last Friday, January 4, but Waitsburg and environs survived the windy onslaught with relatively minor damage. No dea...
