The holidays are approaching, and I was asked to offer some recipes for the holiday. I guess the first holiday approaching is Halloween. This is the easy one, the only thing you need is candy! So, on to the next holiday – Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday! It’s the 4 Fs; Food, Family, Friends and Football (which I still don’t like, but it’s a religion on Thanksgiving). It’s the holiday where there are no obligatory gifts. no religious connotations, just the big 4 and, as a born...
A new California State law will allow California college student-athletes to get paid for use of their name, image or likeness in 2023. It also allows students to hire an agent to represent them. As more and more money has been made by everyone involved except the athletes on the field, it felt like this day was coming. Here’s hoping that this new law will ultimately disrupt the NCAA and force it to reform. However, in its current form this law seems like an attempt to help only a select few athletes in a single state instead of helping the g...
The Dayton-Waitsburg High School Football team dropped their 2nd conference game of the year to Mabton on Friday October 5th. Turnovers and penalties would be their undoing this game. They would turnover the ball three times via the interception and three times with fumbles. Eleven penalties for eighty total yards also didn’t help. On a positive note, DW would get on the board in the 4th quarter with a touchdown pass from freshman quarterback #10 Monte Pettichord to #21 Dylan Bledsoe. Pettichord would complete the two point conversion to #19 C...
Waitsburg, WA-It's October, and, for many people around the area, it means it is time to dust off their rifles, get their licenses and permits squared away, and head out to the fields with the hopes of filling their freezer with venison or elk. Hunting seems simple enough; grab a firearm and go hike around until you find the right buck; but there is much more to it. For conservation purposes, Washington is split into 6 different regions, and each region is split into smaller sub regions, called...
WALLA WALLA-Waitsburg photographer Bill Rodgers is taking his work to new heights and widths. His photo, The Blues, has been reproduced in large format and is on display at the Blue Mountain Land Trust office in the Jones Building off Second Ave and Main Street. "I almost did not stop to take the shot that evening-the light was so murky," Rodgers recalls. "Then, the digital negative languished in my image files on my hard drive for a year or two before I stumbled across it decided to work with...
I thought I had put this recipe in before, but I don't see that I did. If you are still getting zucchini and thinking of ways to use it, then here is another zucchini bread recipe. I've made it and it is very good, without being overly sweet. It comes from the King Arthur Flour web site and since I am a "Facebook Friend", I get the recipes on Facebook. One of the descriptions is "its moist, dense and super chocolatey." INGREDIENTS: 2 large eggs 1/3 c. honey ½ c. vegetable oil ½ c. brown sugar 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 tsp salt...
Debra Callahan is tenacious. She is determined that Waitsburg adults and children are offered opportunities to be creative. Despite not having a permanent space in which to hold classes, or to offer retail purchases of craft supplies, she is moving ahead with her business, the Creative Corner. She is offering a series of classes to be held at the Fireside room at Waitsburg Town Hall until she can finalize a location. Her next class will be a pumpkin painting workshop for children aged 5-12 on...
