Whatever Happened To...

...ROBIN REID?

This photo was taken at my house the last time I saw Robin - probably over ten years ago.

She's pictured here with my other guest at the time, Peckerwood.

 I really would like to know how Robin is doing these days.

Her parents are J. P. and Brenda Reid, formerly of Loretto. She has one sister, Lydia.

Robin gave me, for safekeeping, a folder of essays she wrote - and of course I still have them for her whenever she is ready to have them back or finds a place for them.

Louise Salem Cooks - 1970

This is a scan of an old clipping I have about one of Lebanon's best cooks ever. This article appeared in the Courier Journal in May 1970. I have tasted some of Louise Salem's food and can personally attest to her culinary skills!

My scanner is not large enough and cut off part of the article, but if anyone is interested in the rest of it, I will be happy to send it.

My dear sweet Aunt Louise!
She is an AMAZING cook.  And let me tell you her fudge is to die for!
What a true Southern lady!

I will send you the whole article, bigger so you can actually read it. I have never had her fudge but I've tasted her pies and her pita bread and her stuffed squash. I make that stuffed squash based on her personal recipe+James Spragens' recommendations+my own tweaking. I just love it. But the basic was from her a long time ago. I notice in the stores now you can buy ground pork. Back when I first started making the squash recipe I'd have to ask the meat guy to grind it for me.

For Angela

I'M FREE

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free

I'm following the path God laid for me.

I took His hand when I heard him call;

I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,

To laugh, to love, to work or play.

Tasks left undone must stay that way;

I found that place at the close of day.

If my parting has left a void,

Then fill it with remembered joy.

A friendship shared a laugh, a kiss;

Ah yes, these things, I too will miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow

I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life's been full, I savored much;

Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.

Perhaps my time seems all to brief;

Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.

Lift up your heart and share with me,

God wanted me now, He set me free.

Pugmug's Son

A lot of us have been praying for Pugmug's son, Tyler, who is undergoing treatment for cancer.

I received the following pictures from Tyler's mom tonight, along with this message:

"Here are some pictures of my son,Tyler. There is one pre-chemo and two post-chemo. Everyone has been GREAT. I thought I would put a face with the name. As you can tell he LOVES camo, from the pictures of his room. I joke with him that if he put on camo in his room I would never find him. Feel free to post these one the site.

We have chemo again Monday. Right now, he feels pretty good except for a sore mouth and throat from the last chemo. "

So....here we are. Introducing TYLER:
