CEDAR MOUNTAIN COMMUNITY CENTER HOLIDAY POTLUCK
You missed an amazing feast. We were happy to see lots of familiar faces and some new ones too on Tuesday night. We had Baked, Cajun fried turkey, and ham. There were lots of tasty dishes and salads as well. There was so much food that a lot of us took some home. Beth Owings’s chocolate cake was a hit as always. There were several homemade pies and lots of other goodies too. No one left hungry.
A Crock Pot Cook off is planned for January. There were 25 entries last time and there is always room for more. Check out your recipes and watch for additional details.

AROUND THE HOUSE by Linda Packer Young
We saw a few white flakes floating around Monday on Duncan Mountain. Not ready for snow yet. I was born and raised in Northern Iowa and saw more snow than I ever want to see again. One winter the snow was so high my dad had to dig a tunnel through a snow drift to get to the garage. My sister and I made a snow igloo too which was fun. One winter here it snowed a foot or more, melted a little, and froze solid on top so thick you had to stomp holes in it to walk. I had to park the car on the road and stomp holes up the yard to get to the house.
