Reader Recipe Request: Chicken Enchiladas To some chicken enchiladas are a dime a dozen and I would have to agree. I have tried chicken enchiladas from every Mexican restaurant within a 50 mile radius and I would come to the same conclusion: I’ll make my own. The following recipe is derived from an idea that was given to my wife in 1975 from a Mexican girl in the desert in southern California. The problem with most chicken enchilada recipes is that the chicken is first boiled and then immediately shredded. This leaves the chicken dry and b...

Some Things Change and Some Things Remain the Same Every generation is uniquely different than the previous one yet some things are still passed on. The newspaper is and has been traditionally the source for news and information. We have increased our ability to communicate on a global scale unprecedented in history. The internet as well as cell phones have closed the gap in the communication field; however, sometimes even with all this technology, information is not passed on as far as one might think. With all this technology there sometimes...

By Diana Zimmerman Fire season started a little early and a little too close to home this year. Last Tuesday, March 19, local firefighters and personnel from the Department of Natural Resources responded to three fires in Wahkiakum County, which all began that afternoon. The Elochoman Complex fire and the Deep River fire are out, Wahkiakum County Undersheriff Gary Howell said on Tuesday. Meanwhile, the Wildwood Lane fire, which started as a controlled burn, got out of control and grew to 77 acres at its largest, is listed as 100 percent...

Reader’s Request I am grateful and I give thanks to you the readers who have approached me with your favorable comments and suggestions. While at the Rosburg Store recently I was asked by a Wahkiakum County Eagle reader if I would post some local recipes. I gave it much thought and decided to give you one of my own in a unique way in which I am sure you will want to try it for yourselves. It is as common as coffee in these parts just as jambalaya is common in Louisiana with no two recipes being the same. I am referring to the common clam c...

My New Friends the Corvid Family Most people have met corvids yet did not know that was their name. The family of corvids I am referring to is birds of the Corvidae of which there are 120 species worldwide. Commonly recognized in English they are known as the crow family, corvids or the genus Corvus which including the jackdaws, crows, rooks, and ravens, constitutes over a third of the entire family. Where I grew up, I only occasionally saw a raven or a crow and I didn’t know the difference. The reason I became interested is that while I was sl...

Ingenuity in Wahkiakum County People have migrated as individuals, in small groups, and, in many cases, entire peoples have moved their life’s possessions and cultures to new horizons with the intention of creating a better life. Those who settled here in Wahkiakum County brought with them their talents and courage. Those who left their homes from other countries or from the eastern part of the United States braved the new frontiers in the Pacific Northwest. Those who traveled west by wagon train are the ones that fascinate me for several r...
WEATHER--I was happy to see some warmer temperatures at the end of last week and it was very pleasant to see some sunshine coming through the windows that was not accompanied by freezing temperatures outside! However, that all changed as the days went by and we woke up to just 22 degrees in West Valley on Sunday morning and it was down in the teens on Monday morning. I can't say that the freezing temperatures thrilled me, but that clear blue sky and bright sunshine was certainly enjoyable! With temperatures on the minus side in several areas...

Women Empowered Verses “Rule of Thumb” We use words and phrases every day without really knowing the origin of the words or phrases. For example the 1890's time period was referred to as the “Gay Nineties,” and this had no inference to anything remotely sexual. We have also heard the term “rule of thumb” and its understanding that what is practiced is common or that’s the way we do things around here. It originally was a 17th century English law that requires a husband to beat his wife with a switch no bigger than a man’s thumb. The absu...
