With temperatures hovering around the freezing mark at 6:24amCT on the corner of Tutt and Jamestown Streets in Columbia, KY, this American Flag tells the story of what icy wet snow and wind can do overnight. Anyone reminded of the Christmas movie where the young boy licks a frozen flag pole and his tongue sticks? Comments | Permalink The difference a day makes

This was the sky 24 hours ago, Sunday morning, November 29, 2020, with clouds echoing what weather forecasters were saying about possible snow coming our way. They were right, this morning's snow photos show what a difference a day makes when Mother Nature is making big changes. Comments | Permalink Family recipe for Black Cake

Over the Thanksgiving holiday, food items were shared from traditional dishes, including one early sweet dessert, Black Cake. It came up in JIM's history notes in 2017 and again this season in Mike Watson's history article. Columbia native Ann Curtis writes, "Here is my grandmother Maude Sutton Sandusky’s recipe for Black Cake. She was the mother of Effie Heskamp and my namesake (1883-1934), Ann Sutton Heskamp Curtis." Thanks, Ann! Now we hope a reader who makes this cake will send photos - it's hard to imagine a black cake! Comments | Permalink Older Photos
