Ten Years Ago-July 24, 2008 No history of Columbia County could be told without including the Broughton family, now known for their large, well-managed parcels of land, but in the beginning the story was much smaller, focused upon one young man who left his home in Maryland in 1872 at the age of 17 to travel west. Charles J. Broughton, who was born in Somerset County, Maryland in 1854 accompanied his Uncle Buck Broughton West. Working for his uncle’s packing company, riding the bell mare and cooking for the packers on the trail between M...

What better time than our annual Harvest Edition to put in a recipe using wheat berries. From Food Networks Healthy Eats website comes this information: "Wheat berries are a true whole grain! You may not recognize the name, but without these kernels, there would be no flour. Wheat berries are loaded with nutrients and are as easy as rice to prepare – perfect for a meal any time of year." It goes on to say, "When boiled, cooked wheat berries have a chewy bite and subtle nutty, earthy flavor. They're sturdy enough to handle bold salad dressings a...
Ten Years Ago- July 17, 2008 A few local wheat producers have dipped their toes into the 2008 harvest this week, and harvest start-ups within the next week or so are likely to be delayed by the effects of the cool spring the region experienced. Start ups will likely be “a little later due to the cool spring” says J. E. McCaw, manager of the local branch of Northwest Grain Growers. Mc Caw expects “full swing” to be going late next week. “It’s about a week behind normal”, he said. Grain harvest in the Whetstone area started Monday with Jack Mille...

I had to smile as I was digging through my drawer to find this recipe. I had remembered exactly the paper it was written on, but had to go through them one by one, and of course it was the second to the last one. Now when I post a recipe, it goes into my recipe folder on the computer and I can easily do a search to find one. But this hand-written recipe dates back some 25 years. I have made this many times, but not recently. It is delicious – basically strawberries and cream cheese on a s...

First, I did make the recipe from last week – the Cuban Marinated Steak. It was great, and a lot better than I expected. I thought with the orange juice, it may come off a little sweet, but the lime juice countered it. I used Delmonico steak, and poked holes in it with a fork for marinade to adhere to. It's a keeper in my books. I wonder if it would work with hamburgers. I substituted the cumin seeds with just a bit of cumin powder. I'll watch for the seeds so next time I can use them. Quinoa: Pronounced "Keen-wah." Quinoa is gluten-free, h...
Ten Years Ago-July 3, 2008 A proposed Flood Emergency Action Plan was explored by Mayor Markeeta Little Wolf and councilmen Larry Johnson, Larry Clinton and Leroy Cunningham at a council workshop June 25.

I saw this recipe come through in my email from All Recipes and it sounded interesting. The reviews all had praises for it. I thought it would be a good one to try for the upcoming holiday. I bought all the ingredients but couldn't find the cumin seeds locally. Some of the reviews mentioned they were a must, as that is the flavor that comes through. I also did not get ribeye steak, but a cheaper cut. We have the large Costco container of Montreal steak seasoning. I'm not sure if that is hard to find, but if you need a few tablespoons, I'll be...

This weekend I went to the bake sale at the Best Western Hotel – a fund raiser for needy families at Christmas. I bought several different items, one of which was these salted peanut bars. They were a pleasant mixture of taste and texture. I walked back to the bake sale to see if I could get the recipe. Jeannie Beardsley-Smith gladly pulled it up on her phone and sent it to my phone. (So long to the days of having to copy recipes😊). This comes from Taste of Home. I googled it and it shows it a...
Ten Years Ago-June 19, 2008 Students of the Month of May include Ben Brown, (5th grade), Tristan Newman (4th Grade) Devon Watts (4th Grade) Austin Hamann (5th grade). Teachers in grades 4 and 5 select students based on citizenship, respectful behavior, effort and attendance. When students and staff of Prescott High School arrived for classes on June 6, they discovered that the gremlins had been working overtime. A small car was moved carefully into the hallway and surrounded by straw bales. Seniors then went on a scavenger mission, lifting...

This first ran a couple of years ago. I am cheating as I am just returning from vacation, but I thought it was timely as barbeque season is here. Dena has also passed on to me her family baked-bean recipe, so I will put that in next week. Since July 4th is just around the corner (can you believe it?), I thought I would share this recipe. Guaranteed to make you look like a great cook. It is from the Lincoln Heights Garden Club in Spokane. My recipe card, typed laboriously so that no mistakes were made, is discolored and stained. I treasure it....

Those who love rhubarb may have hoped for another recipe, while those who don't care for it, are glad not to see another one! I didn't get a chance to try this one, but it's on my list. Salads are so versatile in that you can choose what goes into them or out of them. I thought this would make a great lunch and/or dinner for the warm weather. I will serve it with a chopped lettuce bed and fresh bread for a dinner option. INGREDIENTS: 8 oz corkscrew shaped paste 1 c. cubed Muenster cheese ¾ c. Italian style salad dressing 1 c. chopped cel...
Ten Years Ago-June 5, 2008 Photo Caption: Fuel prices posted at the Walla Walla Depot pretty much tell the story. The average price of regular gasoline, news services report, is over $4 a gallon.
