Sharing wisdom: Independence

We all know that July 4, 1776 goes down as the birthday of our country, but did you ever stop to realize what that day actually meant? Go back with me and remember that 442 days earlier the first shots of what became the Revolutionary War rang out.

Finally 12 of the 13 colonies signed the declaration on July 4th. However the Revolutionary War continued for five more years.

The Amish Cook: Amish roots in an unlikely place

Gloria is taking a much-deserved summer week off. She’ll return next week with more fun from Yoders. So, this week we’ll share some special recipes. But, first, some background. Long before Holmes County captured the crown as Ohio’s largest Amish settlement, another was taking root on the other end of the state. Starting in 1819, Butler County, just north of Cincinnati, was home to an Amish community. The settlement thrived for decades until ideological rifts splintered the settlement, with many moving to Iowa and Illinois. The ones that stayed behind eventually formed a Mennonite church in nearby Trenton, Ohio, which endures to this day.
