  • View from the North 40: Modern cooking redefines the modern meal

    Pam Burke|Updated Jan 10, 2020

    I made bread pudding yesterday — I know it’s not the rocket-science of baking and it’s not fancy, but I wanted to treat myself to one of my favorite foods. It was made extra-special because I used real-vanilla extract, and the bread pudding smelled divine. And when I say divine, I mean irresistible. While it was cooling on the counter I would actually pause in whatever I was doing, close my eyes, tilt my nose to the air a bit and inhale deeply, letting my breath out with...

  • Out Our Way: Breaking Trail - John 14:1-6

    Updated Jan 10, 2020

    Out our way, we sometimes find that it is necessary to break new trails. I recall after an especially wet spring, Charlie and I were riding on old familiar trail when we discovered the creek had overflowed from the spring run off and the whole basin was deep in thick mud. The cattle we were looking for were on the other side of the quagmire, so we simply had to seek another route. Charley understood and led the way up, cutting a new trail up over the steep ridge beside us that would get us past the “swamp.” Granted, going up...
