Some people think Father’s Day is just a phony holiday created by greeting card companies to rake in dough by making sons and daughters feel guilty about not buying over-prices greeting cards with precious sayings like: “You’re My Father – Get Over It!” or “Happy Father’s Day – Can I borrow $50.00?”

Father’s Day Celebration

Reading College has expanded to include students from 10 elementary schools with Red Deer Public Schools.

I make a mean pot of porridge, even if I say so myself. Although I have made it at the kitchen often, my way of making it developed at home. Using steel cut oats in a pot of water, I add a couple of scoops of brown sugar, enough cinnamon to make your hair stand on edge and let it boil until most of the water is gone. Then, removing it from heat I add raisins (my friend calls them humiliated grapes), and dried cherries.

Have you ever had what my grandma used to call a “hitch in your get-along”? I know I have.
