Once a staple in the kitchen, cast iron is disappearing as a the cookware of choice. New glass top ranges make it almost impossible to use the heavy pans. Microwave ovens have become the favorite for heating up a quick meal. What is a romantic, like myself, to do about the fading use of such an excellent kitchen workhorse? The only thing I can do is spout cast iron's benefits and hope some of them stick with readers. Don't think that [...]

Call me Ishmael... On second thought, call me Paul. I do have something in common with the Moby Dick character, though. We are both in search of our white prey, but not sure how to capture it! Sightings of a white turkey began last year. When I heard the reports, I laughed these people off as hallucinating, drinking too much, or having a mild case of the bird flu. About 2 weeks before this turkey season, I topped a hill in my truck and running across the gravel road was the great white turkey.

All I got was a glimpse of its back as the turkey quickly waddled away through the underbrush. Some feather tips were colored, giving it the appearance of silver and black stripes. I ...

It’s getting wintery here on the farm. The weather is colder and the days are shorter. I often find myself feeding the cows in the dark. Sometimes I wonder why I chose to raise black cows, as white ones would be easier to find in these conditions. Of course if I switched, they would escape during a blizzard! With Christmas just around the corner, I would like to offer up a little holiday cheer… A Christmas Trivia Contest! You can win a gift for yourself, or to give away this Christmas. Send me an email (or click “Contact Me”) with the answers to the following questions.
