Welcome to the family, Adiona Montgomery 2017-08-19 - Oak Grove Road, Adair County, KY - Photo from the family collection. Adiona Montgomery is a bright, beautiful Lab mix who has been formally adopted into the family of Jackie, Ryan and Rebecca Montgomery at their country home. Adiona is a sister puppy being trained in patience and manners by the adult dogs Mosette and Piper, and Adiona is being tolerated by cats Stormy and Houdini. Each of the Montgomery pets has a unique name with a thoroughly researched and reasoned backstory. For instance, the senior Mosette was, in her youth, named Moses by the Grandfather, however, that name was adapted to Mosette when it was discovered Moses was a girl. Adiona is named for "the goddess of safe return" which tells you a little about the pup's early life adventures. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

(Ad Photo) Ribeye Steak breakfast - family style 2017-08-19 - Liberty Road General Store & Diner, 5097 Liberty Road, Vester, Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Family style shareable breakfasts and lunches/dinners, can be custom built at Patty's Liberty Road General Store & Deli. Extra plates are available on request. The centerpiece a juicy 10 oz Ribeye, later split three ways, and a family plate of just picked Adair County-grown tomatoes and chipped Jalapeno. Patty's buttery grits are served in generous bowls, and these went three ways. Her unique has browns were ample for three. A finicky egg eater insisted on scrambled eggs. Patty's Coffee is just plain good-as-is-brewed, everyone of the three who shared the breakfast ordered coffee and ice water. A meat platter and second order of eggs-over-easy with more biscuits filled out the breakfast. we'll order the restaurant's Country Ham Breakfast Feast. Besides being really tasty, the costs is embarrassingly low. Everything, including a reasonable tip - but maybe short for the impeccable service (we went during a mid-morning lull, the best time for an unhurried brunch) - around $25. Hard to do that, anywhere, even at home. - EW. Liberty Road General Store & Deli is a regular advertiser in CM What's Cooking Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
