From a troubled childhood in Bosnia on a flight to boarding school, he discovered his passion for flying that has become a highlight in his life. The pilot let him fly the plane and told him he was the best pilot he met so far. For a child who hadn’t heard much encouragement that was all he needed to start looking toward his own future and what could he become. At school, he sought mischief out one day and found literacy in the library. His very first book, he couldn’t read and wasn’t interested in reading. The librarian hinted at the myste...

Once again kudos to area teams who won championships for basketball at the state level. For those who got so close but did not win what they thought they would, there is next year and just to get to play in a state tournament is a real honor for our far north teams. Good job girls and boys basketball players! I have been watching a little NBA basketball myself lately. And I have been listening to sports gurus who talk like they know what they are talking about. Most of them are really bragging up Golden State. As far as the NBA is concerned,...
The dinner conversation turned to food in general. “I’ve been wondering what people commonly ate a couple of generations ago that we don’t eat any more,” one hungry person said. “Rutabagas!” another one said jokingly. Well, did most people ever eat many? One person said, “When I was growing up, sometimes we would have plain rice with milk and sugar and cinnamon, for dinner.” In 2016 “dinner” is now called “lunch.” The family was not poor and the mother was a good cook who liked to cook, but some meals were very simple. In much earlier days in...
As many of you know I have been cooking some of my recipes gotten from Laened Black in February. I had a recipe that was called Black’s Party Beans. Well, I made it the other day, gave it to a church potluck and it was gone before anything else at the potluck! The beans serve 25. It is hard to lessen the amount but they freeze well so make the whole amount and give some away, fill your own bean pot and enjoy these wonderful beans. Laened recommended cooking them in a roaster. I filled a small turkey roaster. These are wonderful. Lots to buy b...

It has been an abnormally warm two weeks in Big Sky Country. A couple of weeks ago the thermometer hit 73 one afternoon in Choteau and has been in the high 50’s and low 60’s every day for almost a fortnight in and around Havre. So far my flowers, lilacs and trees seem to be not paying attention to the warm weather. Not much happening in my gardens thank goodness. And, of course, there is little or no moisture of late and probably not going to be until we get into a moisture mode, then watch out, for it will probably flood! So, what shall we...
There once were two tails, one on each of two chickens, but they are irrelevant. This is a tale of two chickens. One chicken was big and one was small, analogously to great-grandfather and young teenager. They were not related to each other and lived on different farms. However, both were brought up with the minimum of human intervention and interference by the owners. Both were spared food full of things with scientific-sounding or unpronounceable names. Both were allowed to live in spaces where the fences were many yards apart and where...

He is going to be the head coach for the Great Falls Bison. We wish him well with the Bison and just wish he had...
I am still trying to comfort myself from the winter blues. Now, I know that as far as real Montana winters go, we have not really had a winter yet at all. And yet, not getting outside to garden and walk along a Bear Paw Creek has been putting me sort of in a funk to say the least. I decided one way I could cure the blues was to cook some old, old recipes that I had maybe never cooked before. For Super Bowl I cooked Francis and Laened Black’s Party Beans and they were wonderful. I got off funk while cooking and eating them both. That day I a...
