On this morning’s Coffeebreak:
Rick’s guest was Trish Jenkins, of the Cynthiana Lions Club. Discussion was the upcoming Lion’s sponsored Taste of Home Cooking School.
The Taste of Home Cooking School is an event that is presented by Taste of Home Magazine, a bi-monthly publication of “mouth-watering menu for each issue are delicious foods for everyday meals and special occasions, all prepared with ingredients that are readily available.” http://www.tasteofhome.com/content/AboutUs.aspx
Trish Jenkins is organizing this year’s event, which is only one of three shows that the magazine are presenting in Kentucky this year. Tickets, which are available at the Harrison County Extension Office, Ken’s New Market (both Cynthiana and Paris locations), and The Cynthiana Democrat, went on sale yesterday. Two hundred tickets have sold thus far.
This year’s theme will be focusing on quick and easy family Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners.
The cooking school will take place at the Harrison County High School Auditorium on November 1st, at 5:30 p.m. Tickets for the event are $9.00.
As always, there will be various vendor/organization booths and concessions available in the auditorium foyer. The Lion’s Club will also be selling two cookbooks published by Taste of Home: Taste of Home Cooking and Taste of Home Baking. The books will be sold at a discounted rate of $25 each. Limited quantities are available.
While the Lions have not decided where proceeds from the event will go, it is agreed that the monies will remain within the community.

In response to yesterday’s question in regards to who is responsible for the Pleasant Street bridge, Rick contacted Travis Fryman, of the State Highway Department. Travis stated that the bridge, and all bridges that are a part of a KY or US highway are the responsibility of the state. Travis also stated that he has put in a request for repairs to the bridge.
Sponsors of this morning’s show were:
BluegrassTradingPost.com, Bourbon Community Hospital, Jetubs, Cockrell’s Auto Center, Whalen & Company, Eastside Pharmacy, the Harrison County Board of Education, and Chase Jewelers.
I’m sorry, I thought that it was common knowledge that a bridge is part of a road, therefore, the agency that is charged with the road has maintenance of the bridge. Yes, even though Pleasant Street is a “city street” that portion (where the bridge lies) is actually KY HWY 36, and the remainder heading west-bound is KY HWY 356.
C’mon, think people…
