 Kitchen Tips 

Heat lemons and limes for 30 seconds in the microwave in order
to squeeze more juice.

To speed up hamburger cooking, poke a hole in their centers
when shaping. This causes the centers to cook quickly and the
holes are gone when the hamburgers are done.

News from Possum Waller
Well it is official! Possum Waller has its own "Super Hero"
Yep, Supperman it is! The local residents are not to used to him yet and he did cause quiet a stir when he started showing up for supper at different houses this week. The choice of a gravy stained tea shirt and an old sheet for a cape did leave something
to be desired though. There was one nasty suprise though when  Supperman had to go to the doc's office to have some rock salt  removed from his ... uhh.."cape". It seems he surprised "Crock" one of the last remaining Civil War vets. Crock said he thought it was a "Yankee Patrol" sneaking through. Well at least he still
shoots pretty good.
As you may know Apples are coming into there season and I was
gonna honor Johnny Appleseed (Chapman, John) (1774-1845) who
was a pretty interesting guy. Crock said he actually met Johnny
when he came through Possum Waller in about 1838, but now you know
why we call him "Crock".

News from Possum Waller

It seems our big city neighbor has been shopping around for
its own "super hero". Superman, Batman and Spiderman seem
to have permanent contracts with some cities. Charlotte
asked Aquaman if he wanted the job, but he insisted that they
flood the streets. The city council said they didn't need any
more of that. Well the local residents here started clamoring
for our own action hero, it was suggested that we use Possum-man,
but it seems some fellow down in Australia may have that one
already. I think we should see if Armadillo-Man is available,
that is if he is all done down on I-10 in Texas. I think it would
make a good sign out at the city limits ... "Possum Waller ...
Home of Armadillo-Man ... defender of Truth Justice and American
Interstates!" Well, guess we could use "Supperman" shows up at your
house around suppertime?
