“No Knead” White Bread (3rd Version)
Courtesy, Maverick Sea Fare
This is the third recipe I’ve found that requires no kneading of the dough. Since many of you have told me that you are not fond of the kneading process, I’m always on the lookout for these kinds of recipes. If you have any you’d like to share, send me an email at: [email protected], or mail it to me: P.O.
I want to express our deep appreciation to Sara Banda for cleaning out the flowerbeds, putting in new mulch, and trimming shrubs all by herself! She cheerfully took on this hot, hard-on-one’s back job and worked at least five different mornings. The beds look just wonderful now! Thank you so much, Sara!

By any other name
You may never have heard of Pauline Phillips. You also may never have heard of Norma Jean Mortenson, or Archibald Leach, or Marion Morrison. And that’s OK, because those people never used those names a whole lot. They didn’t have to. I guess they were able to afford to have extra names.
Norma Jean Mortenson was far better known as Marilyn Monroe.
There seems to be a lot of designated days, weeks and etc.. these days! Boss’s Day, Secretary’s Day, Friends Week, and the list goes on and on. Thus, I pronounce this is “Piddling Month!” You just piddle around. No have to “TO-DOs!” Where you’re free to wear your PJ’s all day!
This means no cooking, just microwaving!
Who You Gonna Call?...
Not so many years ago, when children were asked to do household chores, they might register resistance with beginning letters of four words--“TNMJ.” (That’s Not My Job.)
Such requests made these days might just as well be directed to telephone poles, since most children have “buds” in their ears, choosing to listen to sounds more soothing or entertaining than parental verbiage.
But wait.
It is very early to write this column. I am having trouble thinking three days early. I hope everyone had a safe and fun Fourth of July holiday. Roundup is coming up fast. Granddaughter Megan is in a play this weekend with the Llano Community Theater. Grandma is busy.
Class meetings continue at the Art United Methodist Church on Wednesday evenings.

Fifty-three, to be exact.
Parade.
Floats.
Candy for the kids.
Horseback riders.
The only thing missing is a marching band.
Linger on the Courthouse lawn.
Cicadas serenade in the shade.
Take it all in.
And spend your money.
Keeping it local.
Arts and crafts.

Truth Takes a Holiday in Cedar Rapids
President Trump landed in Cedar Rapids, IA last Tuesday for a 70-minute speech to hand-picked supporters. Based on the number of lies in that speech, the truth must have been on a flight that was outbound when Trump landed. Here are some of the Trump whoppers.

To My Mason County Constituents
Many of us in Mason County are frustrated with the steady increase in property taxes, which seems to be led by increases in property values. Local governmental entities have struggled to make ends meet and keep tax rates as low as possible. We understand that there is a tendency to look close to home to place the blame for increased tax rates and property values.
Priorities Tested
President Trump’s budget director, Mick Mulvaney, approached the proposed 2018 federal budget with a simple question: Would taxpayers want their money spent on this? The result is a budget with trillions of dollars in tax cuts with the largest cuts going to the top 1%. According to the Economic Policy Institute, “In the years following the financial crisis, the top 1% of Americans pocketed 85% of total income growth.
