Rabbit in the clouds is surely a sign



2018-07-21 - Columbia, Adair County, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com.
If ever there was an omen, it has to be the sight of this great, fuzzy, mixed Angora/Netherland Dwarf rabbit in the clouds seen Saturday, July 20, 2018, before the thunderstorms. If those two days of double rainbows at New Columbia/Greater Bliss are a "sure sign of prosperity. Or what?" then Snow Cloud in the Sky has to mean a sure sign of abundant life and prodigious proliferation. Or What? That much is clear. Whether it means the rabbits ilk or hours is the great theological question to dwell on Saturday night and resume on Monday just past midnight. - EW

Epicurean Kentuckian: Maury Lewis praises Laurel Ridge meats

By Maury Lewis

I went to the farmers market this morning, Saturday, July 21, 2018, and purchased a beef roast, Kentucky Proud, from Laurel Ridge Farms. That is the best tasting beef!

I will be cooking a lamb roast in a couple of days from the same farm and I can hardly wait to taste it.

If you have not been to the market on Saturday morning or Wednesday afternoon you are missing out on some GOOOOOOD eats.

They are doing GOOOOOOD in the neighborhood. --Maury Lewis
