* It was beloved 20th-century American poet, memoirist and civil-rights activist Maya Angelou who made the following sage observation: “Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.” * You might be surprised to learn that in terms of holiday retail sales, Halloween is second only to Christmas. * If you’re a fan of beer and/or space, you might be interested in Celeste Jewel Beer.

Quiche is a bit like stir fry; most anything can go into it. This one caught my attention because for some reason we have three dozen eggs in the refråigerator. I like a breakfast dinner, so for me, this would be dinner with fried potatoes and fruit. Quiche is good for all three meals and is easily warmed up. INGREDIENTS: ½ c. light mayonnaise ½ c. milk 4 eggs, lightly beaten 8 oz shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese 1 -10 oz package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry ¼ c. chopped onion 1-9 inch unbaked pie...

* “New shoes too tight? Wear a pair of thick socks, and slip your shoes on. Run a hair dryer over the areas where it’s too tight, and the heat will help those spots expand. Test in an inconspicuous area first if you are unsure that the fabric can take the heat!” -- C.W. in Oregon * “Want to seal your sugar bag (or any all-plastic bag)? Fold over the top at least an inch, and cover the fold with a strip of aluminum foil -- both sides. Lay the bag on its side. Iron the fold, which is trapped inside the foil. It melts the plastic inside. Let coo...
* In 1946, there were only 10,000 privately owned television sets in the United States. By 1952, that number had grown to 12 million. * Those who study such things say that the mouth of an anteater is only an inch wide. * You might be surprised to learn that there is no such thing as a poisonous snake. Of course, there are venomous snakes. What’s the difference, you may ask. Well, something that is poisonous has detrimental effects when you ingest it -- for example, poisonous mushrooms. As a general rule, eating snake meat won’t hurt you. Bec...
I’m making this bread for dinner tonight to go along with the Salmon Mango Bango. I’ll let you know how it tastes and if it’s worth trying. I guess if it’s not, then I’ll have to find another recipe. It would be silly to post a recipe and then say don’t try it, so if you are reading this, then it was a keeper. INGREDIENTS: 3 c. flour ½ c. unsalted butter, melted 1 c. sharp cheddar cheese, grated 1 tsp baking soda 1 c. parmesan cheese, grated 1Tbsp baking powder 2 large eggs 1 tsp salt ¾ c. sour cream ½ tsp garlic powder ¾ c. plain Greek yog...

First, let me say, I'm not a huge fan of salmon, unlike many of my friends. I don't "dislike" salmon, but it never crosses my mind for dinner. Much like avocadoes, I buy them because they are so good for you, but often they will stay in the refrigerator until time to throw them away. If you glance through the recipe, don't be turned off by the red bell pepper and ancho chili pepper jam. I Googled it and it turns out it's easily available. Some time ago, I bought a jar of apricot and jalapeno jelly that I'm going to use instead. We do have...

You may not be aware, though, that as they swim, they keep their tails linked together. * Those who study such things say that Napoleon Bonaparte was partial to cashmere underwear. * Beards may be trendy these days, but if you prefer the clean-shaven look, you belong to a group that goes back further than you think. Cave art dating back to 10,000 B.C.E. depicts g...

I haven't had time to make this, but it's on my list. I like apple anything, mostly with raisins and walnuts.

Ten Years Ago September 20, 2007 Another beautiful – albeit breezy – September Sunday played host to the Pioneer Fall Festival at the Bruce Memorial Museum. The corn on the cob was lip-smackin’ good and smiling folks were abundantly welcoming to the well-attended fall classic. The case of the missing Lewis and Clark Silhouette has been solved. The Silhouette of the two famous explorers, positioned in the parking strip near the Main Street Bridge was discovered missing Monday morning by local citizens. By Tuesday the iron silhouette, craft...
