 RH>> He's lived in the town since 1951 and was a summer intern on the paper
 RH>> for a couple of years in the late 40s while he was in college. While
 RH>> not quite a native, about as close as he could be. (I was the first one
 RH>> of the kids born there.)
 NB>> And connected to the paper long-term, as well...  Yeah... he'd rate
 NB>> more of a news story than a smallprint obit...  ;)

 RH> It's a weekly paper, one of these that still has a lot of "Local and
 RH> Personal" columns from neighboring towns--so & so visited (or had
 RH> visitors from) him and her of wherever in it. Obituaries are another
 RH> page, some columnists, school sports, and whatever the local hot
 RH> button topic news of the week is.

Even the daily big city newspapers will do a feature article on local
bigwigs and/or newspaper longtimers when they pass...  :)  How much more
so the small town weekly...  :)  At least it's still being published.. :)

 RH>> It was yummy, and a couple of more meals of the beef are in the
 RH>> freezer now. It was using up a chunk of cow we'd bought last year
 RH>> but a bit too much for one meal.
 NB>> The leapfrog method of cooking...?  ;)  Some for now, some for
 NB>> later, add some of the earlier "for later" now, save some for even
 NB>> later... ;)  On-going planning for whenevers... ;)

 RH> We had more of the beef tonight as we needed a quick meal. Had a
 RH> tossed salad with it and the beef was on bread. On the light side but
 RH> filled us quite well.

Sometimes that's all one needs.  :)

 RH>> I did the ham, rice and steamed some baby carrots to go with them.
 RH>> Last night we reheated (from the freezer) a roast turkey breast
 RH>> portion, made tossed salad (ingredients from the farmer's market)
 RH>> and I cooked some couscous in a bit of chicken stock.
 NB>> Another nice combination...

 RH> Easy cooking, doesn't take a lot of work but tastes good.

Once the major part of the cooking is done, it becomes almost as
convenient as the pre-fab ones, with a lot less of the iffy ingredients,
and you know it's good and good for you...  :)
