Any day now,
billions of
cicadas with bulging red eyes will crawl
out of the earth after 17 years
underground and overrun the
East Coast. The insects will arrive
in such numbers that people from
North Carolina to Connecticut
will be outnumbered roughly
600-to-1. Maybe more.
Scientists even have a horror-movie
name for the infestation: Brood II. But
as ominous as that sounds, the insects are harmless. They won't
hurt you or other animals. At worst, they might damage a few
saplings or young shrubs. Mostly they will blanket certain
pockets of the region, though lots of people won't ever see them.
They're looking for just one thing: sex. And they've been waiting
quite a long time.
Since 1996, this group of 1-inch bugs, in wingless nymph form,
has been a few feet underground, sucking on tree roots and
biding their time. They will emerge only when the ground
temperature reaches precisely 64 degrees. After a few weeks up
in the trees, they will die and their offspring will go
underground, not to return until 2030. WASHINGTON (AP) -
A Special
FUN Fundraising
Concert on

Moss and Dexter Koonce.

snacks, and our volunteers will be
serving* wine and beer.

3
ingredients
3 whole eggs • 7 slices thick-cut
peppered bacon
1 sm. whole red onion • 1 pkg
white button mushrooms
3 tsp red wine vinegar • 2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp Dijon mustard • 1 dash salt
8 oz baby spinach, washed, dried and stems removed
directions
Place the eggs in a saucepan, cover
with water and bring to a boil. Then
turn off the heat and allow to sit in
the water for 20 minutes. Drain off
the water and add ice on top of the
eggs. In other words...just hard Boil
The Eggs...okay
Fry the bacon in a skillet until
crispy/chewy. Remove to a paper
towel. Drain the fat into a bowl and
reserve. Give the skillet a wipe with kitchen paper.
Slice the red onion very thinly, and then add to the skillet. Cook slowly
until the onions are caramelized and reduced. Remove to a plate and set
aside.
Slice the mushrooms and add them to the same skillet with a little of the
reserved bacon fat if needed. Cook slowly until caramelized and brown.
Remove to a plate and set aside.
Chop the bacon. Peel and slice the eggs.
Make the hot bacon dressing: Add 3 tablespoons of the reserved bacon
fat, vinegar, sugar, Dijon and salt to a small saucepan or skillet over
medium-low heat. Whisk together and heat thoroughly until bubbly.
Add the spinach to a large bowl. Arrange the onions, mushrooms and
bacon on top. Pour the hot dressing over the top; toss to combine.
Arrange the eggs over the top and serve
It feels like we are spending more
time in the cars than we are
anywhere else. Whether it is
driving to work or taking the kids
to school, we are always on the
road.
This is a page for people that love
their cars but wonder how one of the smallest
states has some of the largest traffic tie ups.
We provide information on traffic and road closures throughout
the state, legislation affecting your daily drive, news and events involving
cars and driving, and even sales at our local dealerships.
Keeping you updated on all aspects of driving in Delaware!

It appears that you can make delicious (and fantastically high-carb)
bread by mixing melted ice-cream with self-rising flour and baking it.
I'm willing to believe that this is totally yummy. Go on and try it:
1 Preheat oven to 350º F
2 Let ice cream soften at room temperature for 10-15 minutes.
3 In the bowl of your mixer combine ice cream with flour until
the flour is incorporated.
4 Evenly distribute sprinkles in the bottom of a greased Bundt pan
and scoop batter evenly on top.
5 Bake for 35 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
6 Invert and allow to cool completely.
Be on the lookout friends.
With their crossing at Rt 40
closing, it is rumored the Bears
will be migrating to the newly
restored crossing on Washington
Street. They possibly might take a
liking to Battery Park too!
Could prove very interesting!

Recently, the Colonial School Board voted to hold another operating
referendum vote for Tues. June 4th. The referendum vote is for 35
cents per $100 of assessed property value. With the failed
referendum on February 28th, we have listened to the community. The proposed tax increase has been reduced from 47 cents to 35

Informational meetings are scheduled to hear the proposal and for
the Board to hear from you.

Cobblestones is growing!
Every Sunday morning, 525 plus “Cobbles” receive their weekly dose of New
Castle’s comings and goings and other good and interesting stuff! Cobblestones
is my “fun” project, a service to the community. There is no charge to
community organizations for their listings. Keeping the the ‘community fun
philosophy’ Cobblestones is free of political or social issue advertising.
Space for commercial/business ads require a donation of $50 to
cover time and materials. That covers four random insertions.
Ads should be a moderate size. A jpg or PDF works the best. Let me know
early in the week an approx. size with a final copy Thursday. If it's
just a
listing for “events”, please send me copy as soon as possible.
Personally, I would like to thank everyone for your interest

I can do to help, please let me know.
