If you saw the front page, then yes, it is true. I have officially been deployed to Washington, D.C.

This weekend, where do I even begin? Probably with the burst waterline that turned my bathroom into a splash pad and sent me out of my Davenport office early on Friday.

Cars lined the streets, and inside the community hall I barely made it through the door...

Cooking from scratch can be a great way to stretch food dollars, and fresh ingredients, without preservatives are good for our health, but, prepared ingredients can be fun and a easy way to prepare tasty treats. Recently, I called upon a group of high school students to assist me in test driving a recipe for Creamy Pickle Roll Ups. This easy to prepare recipe calls for refrigerator crescent roll dough and ranch dressing mix. The recipe passed their taste test and it was decide...
