From the Harvest Table

 It was a really hot week for me as well as very busy. With the fair this past week and for those that don’t know, it was my sixth year as the superintendent for the photography class at the fair. It is just another way for me to become more involved with my community and teach people who take pictures what makes a great shot. 

 This year without fail my friend Bill Huck produced some amazing pictures of animals. The best in show was a deer coming over a fence at just the right moment.

 This last week while doing business at the bank, I asked my friend Heidi what type of food she would like to see in the article this week. After giving it some thought, she told me that she really liked Korean food. She told me that while on a trip one time she had it and enjoyed it. 

 I don’t know if I have ever cooked Korean food before so doing a little research on it and learning the basics sounded like a fun Sunday.

 The past couple of weeks during Dad’s visit I found myself going out to eat here in town. 

 As you can imagine I cook at home most of the time because I enjoy it but, going out to eat is a Sharon thing so I indulge when I can to keep the peace. 

 I enjoy anywhere I go out to eat, sometimes my personal taste is not the way it is prepared, but I must honestly believe people never set out to make bad food. It just doesn’t always hit the mark that you expect.

 This past weekend I was so lucky to have my dad come visit me in Idaho. At 83 he doesn’t do a lot of traveling any more but I thought getting him out of the Texas heat would be a nice change for him. As I told him on the phone let someone else mow the grass. 

 My dad had a lot of sayings when I was growing up. We made a book out of them one year for a Christmas gift. He would say to me “grass mowing is not a spectator sport.”
