    Laura Estes, Special to The Record-Times|Updated Apr 21, 2022

Any type of potato may be used, depending on personal tastes. Additionally many recipes include boiled...

  • Pastor's Corner

    Updated Apr 7, 2022

    I just wanted to say how pleased we are with Odessa for welcoming us into the town and making us feel a part of this community.
