Scenic Adair Co., KY: Barbee Spring, Bull Run Road



2008-08-16 - Bull Run Road, Columbia, KY - Photo By Ed Waggener.
THIS SPRING was on the property of his ancestors, Richard Robertson says, in giving some of the reasons why he's moving from the Mt. Gilead area of Green County to Bull Run Road. The spring has always been a welcome sight for travelers, and, at one time, its protector, J.L. Barbee says, it was the primary source of water for homes beyond on Bull Run Road. There's now a faucet to turn the water off, that's a modern touch. But the tin cup hanging on the right is an old timey touch. A Today, Sunday, August 17, 2008 Today's Picture Album photo

    To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

    After seeing the tomato/basil pics, etc. I thought this a perfect time to share a recipe we've been eating in Versailles all summer! It's Paula Deen's Tomato Pie and it's absolutely wonderful!!

    TOMATO PIE:
    • 4 tomatoes, peeled and sliced
    • 10 fresh basil leaves, chopped
    • 1/2 cup chopped green onion
    • 1 (9-inch) prebaked deep dish pie shell
    • 1 cup grated mozzarella
    • 1 cup grated cheddar
    • 1 cup mayonnaise
    • Salt and pepper
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

    Place the tomatoes in a colander in the sink in 1 layer. Sprinkle with salt and allow to drain for 10 minutes.

    Layer the tomato slices, basil, and onion in pie shell. Season with salt and pepper. Combine the grated cheeses and mayonnaise together. Spread mixture on top of the tomatoes and bake for 30 minutes or until lightly browned.

    To serve, cut into slices and serve warm.
