MT Storytelling Festival gets great reviews If smiles were what you needed on this Saturday, June 20, 2026, the first literary arts festival in Columbia had many gifts. We'll have information and photos coming in the days ahead, but for this moment, as we're about to gather in front of the historic Field House on Reed Street for the final presentations, there's no question but that this will become an annual event.

Those of you who raised chickens back in the days of chicken coops and henhouses in the backyard know this is true. Even when I visited my grandmother and begged to collect the eggs, I knew the hens were dangerous and confrontational. If I lifted a chicken from her nest, she could either cooperate or peck me.

The "golden" egg, however, did not come with a prize unless my grandmother planned to use a few of them to make her famous "dump" cake, which was a one-layer cake, dumped into a bowl, and then a sugar concoction made with water, butter and a little nutmeg was poured over it.
