  • Jackie Lindley logo.jpg TRIED ’N’ TRUE: Whip up a rhubarb surprise cake

    This recipe comes from Ruth Baker. She sent a lot of rhubarb recipes. I have been putting them in the paper for the last three years. I’ve almost used most of them. Some I have used more than others. Mary Hunter also had this recipe. I have made this a lot. Gene really likes this. I use sweetener and yellow or white sugar-free cake mix. The only sugar I put in this recipe is in the marshmallows. Adjust for this. Our grandkids also enjoy this cake. Thanks to Ruth and Mary.

    It’s merely one word, yet the conjunction of those six letters conjures up so many meanings and feelings. While teaching us both the simple and profound lessons in life, mothers somehow can instill morals and memories. They can guide us on our journey, pick us up when we fall, and let go when we must find our own strength.

    Bridge at the local club was exciting during the week of April 15-20. The excitement was generated by the fact that one of our members became a Life Master and a party was held on Saturday with a carry-in lunch. A total of nine tables played in a Swiss Team game honoring Joyce McWilliams. The game was directed by one of our finest players, Jim Gormong. The game was also a charity event with a portion of the player fees being forwarded to the charity of Joyce’s choice. She has chosen the ALS Association.

  • PAW PRINTS: Plant a pet-safe garden this year

    This is the time of year to be thinking about what type of plants you are going to plant in your garden. If you have pets, it’s important to consider their safety when deciding on which plants to put in the ground. People (and pets) are naturally attracted to the appearance and fragrance of various plants. Often, pets are drawn to eat the foliage and flowers, which can lead to life threatening side effects.
