Epicurean Kentuckian: Introducing The Falafel Waffle 2014-01-20 - Shelbyville, KY - Photo by Pen. I think Falafel is delicious, but it seemed inconvenient to make at home, because it's traditionally deep-fried. At some breakfast in the recent past, the idea occurred to me that falafel might be delicious prepared in a waffle iron -- extra crispy, and easier to prep and clean up after. This first attempt was an encouraging disappointment. It didn't hold together particularly well, and it didn't brown evenly without extra olive oil. However, it was delicious on a Greek salad, and certainly proved the concept enough to plan further experimentation. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Scenic Adair County, KY: Seven story cliffside at Inroad 2014-01-20 - Inroad, District 3, Adair Co., KY - Photo by Linda Waggener. Everytime I see this cliffside along Powells Creek near where the Old Turners lived, I want think how to photograph it. Yesterday, I just did it. I'm fascinated by the stacking of the trees and the variegated patterns in the alternating dark evergreens and the hardwoods. It's so similar to random patterns skilled masons use laying brick, but more, it reminds one of mountainside stacks of houses on a Mediterranean coastline, in some Eastern Kentucky towns, and especially in parts of Knoxville, Charleston, WV, and San Francisco. This scene can be seen along Melson Ridge Road east of its intersection with KY 704, at Inroad. - Linda Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Epicurean Kentuckian: Potato Ball / Papa Rellenos 2014-01-19 - 104 Public Square, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. They've been on the tv food shows, and now they're being made in Columbia. An interesting snack, Papas Rellenos or stuffed potatoes, are called simply "Potato Balls," in Florida where Chef Gary Crawford of TaP's became fond of the comfort food. Variations are as many as one has imagination. The softball sized one above was made with a ground beef, celery, onion, and jalapeno stuffing inside a casing of real mashed potatoes rolled in a very light cornmeal coating, then deep fried until golden brown. The entree is not on the menu - yet, but may be one day in the future. A Puerta Rican using pork is in a class of fried foods they call "Cuchifritos," according to the Wikipedia entry, Cuchifritos - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Surveillance camera catches shootout in progress 2014-01-19 - Downtown, Columbia, KY - Photo CM staff photo. Downtown Columbia Drama from a grainy CM video surveillance There was trouble in town Saturday as the leader of the Dalton Gang was hunting down "Hellca Stanley" (alias) for a banana pistol shootout. Nobody got hurt in the fracas. A witness, Bubba, commented of the gunman above. "He's a bad one, alright," adding, "but he's my brother." The Crawford Boys hang together, like brothers oughta. "Hellcat Stanley" had sneaked out the door, headed home, a bit tuckered from his two block shopping trip to the grocery store armory where he had purchased the "weapons," and exhausted from the frenzied shootout, perhaps to write a country song commemorating the showdown.
