A couple of weeks ago my husband, Dave and I took a road trip out West. It's about 8:00pm and with no place to eat for fifty miles we spot a 1940’s dance hall that advertised Burgers, Booze and Pool. There is a small amount of light shining out from this place and Dave went in, just to make sure it was open and were still making burgers. He came back out with a thumbs up and said the owner told him "The sign says open, doesn't it?" The bar sat twelve people (no one else was in there) and there was a pool table in the other room. The ole timer asked how we liked our burgers and we told him medium rare! His response: “He would try to catch it in time.” He then proceeded to fire up the ole George Foreman, sliced us each a piece of cheese to go on top, a few rings of onion and a pickle. He took a couple of pops out of the cooler and started to share the history of the old place with the walls and ceiling covered in dollar bills.
Steaming grapes for juice and jelly! I have only just begun. I steamed 70 cups of juice and only 1/3rd of the grapes are picked. © High Prairie Life 2017
I always seem to have an abundance of over ripe bananas. A basket of homemade banana muffins with a oat crumble topping fit the bill today! © High Prairie Life 2017
