In the kitchen: Curried eggs on rice

Posted by Fred Steiner on February 5, 2010 - 9:37am

This recipe came from an Hellman's Mayonnaise ad in the '60s. It is a delicious company recipe - very attractive too.

Curried Eggs on Rice

1 cup Hellman's Real Mayonnaise (substitutes make this a less-tasty but lighter dish - don't use Miracle Whip which is a salad dressing, not a mayonnaise)

1 cup dairy sour cream (or plain yogurt - again - lighter taste)

3 oz can of sliced mushrooms

1/4 cup milk

Letter: Some thoughts on Ohio license plates

Posted by Fred Steiner on February 5, 2010 - 9:30am

Dear Icon:

From the banks of the Riley on the west edge of Pandora,

Good to see you this AM in passing at the Post Office. The fellow who owns the 600 ZB plates is Leland Badertscher. He isn't related to Maynard. He has had the plates for "15-20 years." The 600 isn't special.

I mentioned to him that that was likely the number which had rotated up and was available that day. The plate numbers for ZB and YZ were available for purchase in numerical order.

2-4-10 Upside-down on the feeder

The upside-down bird

Actually it's a nuthatch. This guy likes to eat his lunch this way. The little bluish-grey and white bird with a sharp beak is a frequent visitor to many Bluffton bird feeders. To view all home page feature photo from The Icon click here.
