The Times - Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

How many different versions are there of banana bread? I found this some time ago and knew I had all the ingredients, then put it off thinking I needed coconut. I wasn't crazy about the thought of che...

This is the chocolate cake recipe I mentioned so if it looks familiar, it's been posted before. One email I received from King Arthur was about the difference between cocoa powder and Dutch cocoa. I...

Valentine's Day is synonymous with lots of chocolate, candy hearts, flowers, and anything red, pink and white. It is my favorite holiday. Since Valentine's Day is not until next Thursday, I pondered w...

I was trying to think of a Super Bowl recipe or something that may work beside pizza, chips and dip, and chili. I thought this might be good for a main meal or something not too heavy and ready to...

Before I go into my recipe, I'll share some thoughts, as it has to do with food. On my way home from Spokane, I stopped at a Colfax gas station as I usually do. I bought a "small" bag of Kettle Corn,...

This recipe came from The Country Cook and got a 5 star rating. I'll copy some of the comments as I found them interesting and informative. Pastrami or Corned Beef? The article says, "I believe the...

I really like gingerbread, molasses cookies, gingerbread cookies cut like little people, and my newest addition, which I can’t believe I’ve reached my age and never had it before, cornbread with...

Ribbon Jello This recipe was shared with me by Myra Mann. This is a fun dessert or side dish. I had it at our church coffee hour and it makes you smile and feel like a kid again. I'd like to make it...

I thought about reposting the Scalloped Potatoes and Ham dish I did in 2016, but thought maybe some would think I was getting lazy Everyone has their traditional Christmas dinner, usually ham or...

I am using this recipe this week in honor of someone who passed away, Rosemary Newman. This recipe was handed out at the gathering after the funeral. It touched me because I have kept and used recipes...

I saw this recipe in the Colfax Gazette. She (Judy Gehring) said it originally published in Taste of Home in 1998. What caught my attention was using vanilla pudding "cook and serve" as one of its...

I'm making this recipe an official "My Recipe Box" tradition for the week after Thanksgiving. Here are my lead-ins for the past two years: "If this sounds familiar, it is. I used this recipe last...

I was debating on what to put in this week. Last year at this time, I put in a recipe called Turkey Imperial. It is a good way to use up leftover turkey, so if you are looking for it or would like to...

At this time of year, we think of warm foods. As they say, comfort foods, hot drinks (as I am drinking my tea), extra clothes, wood fires, etc. (Except for those who are headed south.) Which is why I...

I really debated about whether to repost last year's recipe, Sausage and Apple Stuffed Squash, because it is so fall-ish and a "dinner in the oven, but I saw this one. I like shrimp and find it a...

This recipe is shared from Savonnah Henderson, who, most of you know, works at Wenaha Gallery in Dayton. But most may not know what a gourmet baker she is. She posted this picture on Facebook, so I...

I saw this recipe come through my email and thought of the times I had made Tater Tot Casserole when I had a young family. It was always a favorite. So I thought I'd make this one, since I haven't don...

My first thought was to look up the mock apple pie made from zucchini. When I picked up a few zucchinis from an acquaintance, she asked me if I had ever tried it. I told her I had not, and she said...

I made this on a weekend, when I have more time to fuss with breakfast. This goes together quickly, and I found not as heavy as regular pancakes, which I really like. I found it surprising that the...

I thought I'd give you a break from all the sweet recipes, although I made Greek Yogurt Chocolate Zucchini Bread this weekend and it was great. Made with coconut oil, honey, and not much brown sugar....
