Epicurean Kentuckian: Tomatoes are at - or nearing - perfection 2015-07-25 - Columbia, KY - Photo By Ed Waggener. Putting "a Darrell" in perspective. It's the perfect Saturday for tomatoes. Red one's are still coming on with tender, edible skins, intense flavor before the fall taste sets in, and there are bountiful green tomatoes that that most perfect South Central Kentucky delicacy: Fried Green Tomatoes. This tomato is the perfect size for a Tomato Steak w/Miracle Whip (and fresh basil, preferably from a table side plant) - or for a thick cut, tomato on Wonder Bread w/Mayo on both slices, salt & pepper (and fresh basil if you can find it) sandwich. This tomato was right from the neighborhood where it was grown, Coburg, KY. Check farmers markets times in CM Events. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Miss Victoria's luxury model Mahindra 2015-07-24 - Miss Victorias Pampered Angus Ranch, Greater Bliss, KY - Photo by Victoria Browning Pike. The new county Mahindra is a wonderful tractor, but not the Lexus-level model that sits on Miss Victoria's Pampered Angus Ranch, Whether from tractor envy or respect for the Adair County's premier rancher, the Adair County Fiscal Court purchased a Mahindra for its road department today. The court relied on good reports on the machine, also backed by the reputation of Charles Giles & his grandson Chaz, of G & G Motors, the Mahindra Dealer. Miss Vicky's Mahindra has a air conditioned cab - not a sleeper cab - and a great feature, a pump button thickens the seat and raises a short person where they can see over the hood. Mahindra & Mahindra is an Indian Company, but Miss Victoria's tractor, dubbed, "Miss Mahindra" carries a "Made in the U.S.A" sticker and is assembled at one of two or three Mahindra plants in America. - EW Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Bonnie Sue the natural blond heifer, the love child of one of Miss Victoria's Pampered Angus and an amorous Charolais which busted through a neighbor's fence, is shown, center state. Now Bonnie Sue is the most honored of the girls. She is absolute hell on coyotes, Miss Victoria says. The photo was taken back in the winter. Number 82, frame right, is an as yet unchristened heiferette who just wanted to get her picture taken. - CM Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
