Checking out the Pokeweed harvest 2018-05-07 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Linda Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. Blue the Cat helped me harvest the Pokeweed this morning and the plan is to carefully boil it, drain it, boil it again, drain it again, then boil it a third time (which makes it safe to eat, according to urban dictionary) and enjoy it with a little salt, pepper and vinegar. The plant is referred to as both Polk and Poke and is harvested, cooked and served with cornbread, as a traditional dish in the south. - LW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

Epicurean Kentuckian: For those who like coffee in their coffee 2018-05-07 - Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. What do you do when a favorite restaurant serves coffee you can read the menu through when the pot is held up by the window? Carry your own packets of instant to fortify it. At our place, we like coffee in our coffee. Fortunately this isn't a universal situation. Many popular restaurants serve excellent brew, not only a full service places, but at fast foods as well. At the latter, better ask exact prices - they vary wickedly. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
