Valentine's Day special with homemade red sauce

Transform basic pasta and red sauce into a thoughtful and hearty dish that your valentines will love. This classic Italian-American red sauce uses canned tomatoes (whole canned tomatoes provide better flavor than crushed canned tomatoes) and is ready in under an hour. For a spicier sauce, add red pepper flakes to taste.

To transform it into a cream sauce, stir about 1-1/2 cups of heavy cream into the sauce at the end of the cooking process. Serve with high-quality pasta, either store-bought or homemade.

SIGNS: Tax dollars being wasted in Adair County

Not only is this a costly problem, but can be life threatening as well.

By Bridget Compton

Adair County Fiscal Court Clerk, Solid Waste Coordinator

The citizens of Adair County's tax dollars are being wasted. To help this problem, I'd like to bring attention to it and hopefully get the public involved in stopping some of this road sign theft and littering.

In one week week the Adair County Road Department has put up 16 road signs that had been stolen. Two of the 16 had just been replaced due to theft. These signs cost approximately $100 each to replace, so that is $1,600 alone, in one week, coming from the road fund that could be going to do repairs on roadways in Adair County. Not only is this theft costing the citizens tax dollars but it could cost someone their life since emergency services have been dispatched and the road signs are gone to direct them where they need to go.
