Greg Leffler and I were fortunate enough to bag a few geese over New Year’s and we divvied up the harvest. By the way, we fileted the breasts and discarded the legs. Still, cooking a goose so that it’s edible is sometimes a challenge, but Greg and his wife Leah came up with what sounds to be a terrific recipe. They both said it was excellent. Here’s how they did their version of Crockpot … [Read more...]
It’s ‘Tog Time
Dr. Ken Neill, III This is the time of year when we should be catching all the rockfish we can handle all along the oceanfront. That fishery has not happened the past few years and it has not happened yet this year. We have some hope for this winter as there was a good coastal fishery to our north and there has been a good rockfish bite in the mid-bay area. So far, those mid-bay fish … [Read more...]
Cold Water Fishing
By Capt. Steve Chaconas For the first time this season, the water temperature is below 45 degrees. This changes the presentation of lures and location of fish. Cold water will position fish on drops and slow the food chain. Use electronics to find the warmest water and to find baitfish near fishing locations. Cold week ahead. Daytime highs only in the mid 40s and overnight lows in the mid to … [Read more...]
Nancy B’s House of Lights
We’ve changed our name. Hi, I’m Nancy B, owner of Nancy B's House of Lights. For 8 years we have done business as Builders Lighting, but we wanted homeowners to know that we are here for them, too.

Testing! Testing!
Every Boomer remembers test patterns. In the early days of television, each channel (usually one or two, that’s all we got) began the day and ended broadcasting with a test pattern on the screen. Most of us didn’t know what a test pattern was, really, or its purpose. All we knew that when the test pattern finally appeared (it took the tubes a while to warm up), there was nothing on the … [Read more...]
Attract Bluebirds – Right Now!
If you want bluebirds in your backyard, don’t wait until spring to put out a box. Do it right now. If it’s an old birdhouse, make sure to clean it thoroughly. In the real estate business for birds, the “buyers” can be picky and a dirty birdhouse will send them elsewhere. Also, make sure it’s a “bluebird house”. According to the National Audubon society, it’s critical that a bluebird house have … [Read more...]
Venison Stew
By James Friend Dickerson Deer season is over. Time to cook up some Venison Stew. We really enjoy cooking with venison at Kamp Karen. I’ve received requests for my Venison Stew recipe, so hear goes. I used to make this following the Bourbon and Buck Stew recipe found in the L.L. Bean Game & Fish Cookbook. Over the years someone borrowed without returning the cookbook or it got lost … [Read more...]
Caution: Men Cooking
I say men make the best cooks. My wife says men make the biggest messes. What a sexist she is. Fellow chefs, the time has come for men to take control of the kitchens in America and get women back in the malls where they belong. Gentlemen, start your turkey fryers. What? You have no experience cooking? A lack of experience or knowledge of a particular subject has never stopped us before. Men … [Read more...]
Rockfish – Out With a Bang
Dr. Julie Ball reports: With the New Year upon us, many anglers are reflecting on the previous year with fond memories. Rockfish anglers in particular have little to complain about, especially since the 2015 Chesapeake Bay rockfish season went out with a bang. 2015 turned out to be a very good striper year with lots of big fish making dreams come true throughout December. With daily limits … [Read more...]
