REPORTER
There wasn’t an empty
chair left in the room as
the Knox County Board
of Education began their
meeting Tuesday afternoon. Once seats were
filled, people began to
line along the walls and
sit in the floor. All were
eager to hear the outcome of the meeting.
For weeks, the community has voiced its support
of current superintendent
Kelly Sprinkles. Sprinkles’ contract was up for
renewal, a subject that
was originally scheduled
for the board’s regular
meeting 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 22. However, a
last-minute decision was
made to hold a special
meeting 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 15. A time

Barbourville police began searching a suspect’s van
Thursday, March 10 for contraband, and to their dismay,
they came across several containers of urine, as well as,
feces wrapped in a shirt.

entire life,” said Detective Steve Owens of the stench emVAN, PAGE A8

Union College coach honored for heroism
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
EDITOR
On behalf of the City of Barbourville, Mayor David Thompson
and the city council presented
Barbourville resident Sean Trinque with a plaque for his selfless
act of heroism in rescuing Union
College Professor Dr. Robert
Chandler from flood waters on
Feb. 16, 2016.
“Without any regard for his own
safety, Sean Trinque did what few
others could or would have done
under the dangerous circumstances,” said Mayor Thompson.
Trinque was presented the
plaque at the March City Council meeting with his family and
friends in attendance.
Important Info
✔
This November, Dexter Smith and Merrill Smith,
who voted against Sprinkles, may run for re-election. Charles Merida, who voted in favor of Sprinkles, is also up for re-election. Anyone wishing to
run against them must file their papers with the
Knox County Clerk by Aug. 9.
✔
Two of the three board member voting against
Superintendent Sprinkles were recently charged
with several infractions regarding their conduct
as board members. Dexter Smith and Merrill
Smith were accused by the state of overstepping
their authority while acting as members of the
board. According to the State BOE, no action has
been taken on the referral to remove them from
the Knox County BOE. Their cases are still being
reviewed by the Ky Board of Education’s legal
department.

Barbourville Tourism asks City Council for tax increase
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
EDITOR
Barbourville Tourism wants
the city to increase its portion of
tax revenue.
Randall Young, Chairman
of the Barbourville Tourism
Commission, stood before the
Barbourville City Council last
week to ask for a one-penny
increase on the dollar for tourism and recreation. Currently,
Tourism receives two cents on
the dollar, which has been the
same for the past 20 years.
The increase, he told the
board, is due to the increase
SPORTS
in the cost of advertising, the
added cost of improving and
repairing the city parks, not to
mention the recently-added
events on the city’s calendar,
like the upcoming monthly car
show that will be held downtown.
“We’re having to do more
with less,” he told the council.
“It varies, but currently we have
$20,000 a month income. This
increase would give you about
a 50 percent increase to about
$30,000-$35,000 a month to
support all the activities that we

do. We help with the financial
organization, the planning, advertising and in some degree in
everything that goes on at these
special events.”
Tourism, Mayor David Thompson agreed, is involved in some
form or fashion with nearly all
of the city’s events, from the
annual Easter Egg Hunt to the
park systems and the barbeque
competition.
“They’ve put money into the
parks and street department
or we wouldn’t be able to
open the parks,” said Mayor

Thompson. “The last two years
our parks have suffered regular losses. This year the city is
bidding out the concessions
because we can’t afford to run
them. It doesn’t affect the opening of the park this year, but it
affects things in the future.”
Tourism Director Denise
Wainscott added that advertising costs to reach outside the
region, including TV, radio, and
state advertising have more
than quadrupled over the years.

A LEGACY OF
SUCCESS
KELLY SPRINKLES
KNOX COUNTY SCHOOLS SUPERINTENDENT
SUPERINTENDENT
KELLY SPRINKLES
ELECTED VICECHAIRPERSON OF
SESC BOARD
Superintendent Kelly Sprinkles has a long legacy of success in education. A graduate of Knox Central
High School, he successfully earned a college degree from Eastern Kentucky University. Later, he went
on to earn his teaching credentials and began his teaching career in Knox County. He also committed to
constantly improving his performance and expertise, earning advanced degrees from both Union College
and EKU. Committed to life-long learning, he worked hard preparing to becoming a leader in his field.
He taught for years at Boone Elementary. He earned his principal credentials and served as principal for
Dewitt Elementary from 1998 to 2001, and for Jesse D. Lay Elementary from 2001 to 2006. From 2006
until 2013, he excelled as principal at the Knox County Middle School, where he distinguished himself as
someone deeply committed to “making it all about the kids.” Then, after more than 20 years as a leader in
education in Knox County, he became superintendent in 2013.
As superintendent, he helped unite and transform a poor, rural school district with scores far below the
state averages, to one proudly boasting of schools that have earned proficient and distinguished ratings.
His expertise, team building skills, excellent communication skills, and deep passion for improving education earned him statewide respect from fellow superintendents and educators, who chose him for a prestigious statewide leadership position.
Kelly Sprinkles has brought to Knox County a legacy of success.

A4 — The Mountain Advocate — Thursday, March 17, 2016
Leaders – it’s time to answer the voter’s question – WHY?
I was in the Knox County
School Board room
Tuesday. Several things
were very unusual about
the meeting. First, the
timing was odd. Board
meetings generally are at
6:30 p.m., and the regular
March board meeting was
already on the calendar.
Yet, board Chairman Dexter Smith scheduled the
special called meeting for
1:30 p.m. on a Tuesday, a
week earlier, while school
was still in session.
More unusual, never have
I had to walk past eight
different uniformed state
police officers and sheriff
deputies to enter a school
board meeting. I thought,
“Someone must have
planned on needing a lot of
security.” And since this was
a “special called” meeting,
the board may not discuss
or act on anything not specified, and it required only a
minimum 24 hours advanced notice (almost exactly all we got here at The
Advocate). The item on the
agenda was a discussion of
the contract extension for
the Superintendent.
However, soon I was
glad the officers were
there! Passions flared
as Knox School Board
members, Dexter and
Merrell Smith, made and
From the
Publisher
Jay Nolan
[email protected]
seconded a motion not
to extend Superintendent
Kelly Sprinkles’ contract.
And when a third board
member, Peggy Gray, cast
the tie-breaking vote to
support them, the crowd
in the room absolutely
erupted.
“WHY? Why are you doing
this?” Forcefully, passionately,
many asked. Why?
I was shocked even
more when Dexter Smith,
Merrell Smith, and Peg-
gy Gray each refused to
answer.
So, I challenge any or
all three directly. Tell us.
“Why did you vote as you
did?” Any or all of you can
have free space in this paper, and we will print your
answer in full. Just explain
why.
But, here’s another
“Why” question: Why
have the state Education
Commissioner and School
Board not already either
removed Dexter and
Merrell Smith from office
or cleared them from the
charges they face? The
reason I got from the state
was that the file was still
“being reviewed” by the
legal department. It’s still
under review since Nov.
13, 2015? Why does it take
five months to review a
case? Why is it that school
board members under a
cloud of possible “immorality, misconduct in office,
incompetency, and willful
neglect of duty, or nonfeasance” can act before the
state can?
I think the voters of Knox
County deserve answers
from our elected officials
at our local school board,
but also from the state
school board.

childhood. I’m reminded
of walking with grandma
viewing flowers that came
to her garden with each
spring.
Grandma grew flowers
to cut for fresh bouquets
from her garden and
place on a table on the
front porch for everyone
to enjoy. Each spring she
whitewashed and planted
long wooden flower boxes,
filled with garden fern and
petunia’s. Many days, I fell
to sleep in the porch glider
swing after having one of
grandma’s fried apple pies
and a cold glass of milk.
Grandma’s porch swing
was a favorite place for
quite retreat when I was
a child, a sweeter, gentler
time long ago.

Property owners seek annexation to city limits
BY BOBBIE POYNTER
EDITOR
The owners of the Heidrick One Stop property have
requested the City of Barbourville annex the property
into the city limits.
Barbourville Mayor David
Thompson gave his opinion
of the annexation at the
March City Council meeting.
“In order for Barbourville
to expand, we have to be
able to grow,” said Mayor
Thompson. “We can’t grow
if we get smaller, and we’ve
gotten smaller for 10 years.”
Mayor Thompson made
note in a prior meeting
that the city’s income from
tax revenues have gone
down over the years due to
more properties within the
city’s limits being bought
by non-profit organizations
that are not required to pay
city taxes.
The property in question

many disagreed with, as it
was during school hours.
Only three items were
on the day’s agenda:
Adopt Agenda, Discuss
and/or take action on
Superintendent’s Contract,
and Adjournment.
“I make a motion to
not approve,” said Board
Chairman Dexter Smith
of Sprinkle’s contract
renewal. His statement
was short, yet it silenced
the room full of teachers,
students and parents. The
crowd waited to hear the
remaining board members
vote.
Board members Gordon
Hinkle and Charles Merida
voted in favor of renewing Sprinkles’ contract.
Chairman Smith and Vice
Chairman Merrill Smith,
however, voted against.
The motion hung on the
vote of Board Member
Peggy Gray, who seemed
to take a moment before
casting her vote against
the superintendent.
Immediately, the crowed
erupted with disapproval.
Chairman Smith attempted to adjourn the meeting
as quickly as possible.
However, the crowd and
other board members,
demanded answers.
“I think all of you that
voted not to renew his
contract needs to stand
up and tell everybody
why,” exclaimed Renee
Hinkle, wife of Board
Member Gordon Hinkle,
as the crowd cheered their
support.
is located on KY North 11
a quarter mile from U.S.
25E and directly across
the street from current city
property.
“All the paperwork has
been submitted for several
weeks,” said Mike Taylor,
who attended the meeting
on behalf of the property’s
owners. “We’ve been trying
to do the right thing and get it
done the right way.”
Taylor says the property
owners have not requested
the annexation for themselves, but for the current or
future tenants of the store.
“If we don’t put the store
within the city limits, and
all the other stores around
us sell alcohol, the store
would surely close,” Taylor
explained. “Because of the
store’s location, they (the
tenants who have been
leasing the store for the
past 5 ½ years) have to be
given the option to apply for
wisely as we can,” she
said, “but we need to
be in the game to be
competitive. I feel we
have the best town in
the area, and we need
“My wife brought up a
good point,” said Hinkle. “I
believe that any decision
you make, wither it be
good or bad, should have
some justification behind
it. And, if you’re going to
make that as a representative of this county, then you
ought to have enough guts
to stand up and say why.”
Board Member Charles
Merida chimed in to voice
his opinion of the decision.
“Three of us sitting right
here behind this table
made decision two and
a half years ago to take
Mr. Sprinkles to lead this
district. That was a good
decision then, and this is a
wrong decision now,” said
Merida. “I asked this young
man three questions
when he came before us.
Number one, can you take
theses students and get
their test scores up? He
said ‘yes’ and he has done
that. Number two, I asked
Mr. Sprinkles, can you
bring this district together
and get all of our employees, and get them to work
in harmony? He said ‘yes’,
and he has done that. My
third question - now, it
may offend some of you
all, and if it does, then I’m
sorry. But, I asked him this
question, Mr. Sprinkles, if
you have an employee that
will not be productive, will
you have the balls enough
to fire him? He said ‘yes’
and he has done that! So,
to vote no now, for personal reason or a vendetta, is
the wrong decision.”
The three board members that voted against
Sprinkles remained quiet
as members of the audience, including Sadi
✔ accepting new patients
✔ accepts all insurance
✔ Family practice that
treats all medical issues
a liquor license. They need
that opportunity just to
keep their doors open.”
The annexation of the
property, Taylor explained,
would benefit both the
property owners and city.
Not only would the city
benefit from the store’s
alcohol tax revenue, but
from the added property
taxes. The property owners,
who have already given the
city use of their property
for city sewer and utilities,
would save on the cost of
property insurance, making
it a win-win situation for
both parties.
“For the record,” said
Taylor, “we (the property
owners) have not said one
word publicly about the
sale of alcohol, one way or
another. We do not live in
the city limits and did not
have a vote. In fact, I never
thought it would pass, but
now that it’s here, we have
to try to make it work for
everybody.”
“The way I understand
it, and according to our
legal handbook,” said City
Clerk Helen Strong of the
request for annexation,
“since the property owners
are giving consent, we can
go ahead in the form of an
ordinance.”
The City Council quickly
and unanimously agreed
to annex the Heidrick One
Stop convenient store into
the city limits.
The following businesses
have already turned in their
applications for alcohol
licenses: Fast Lane Tobacco, Williams Stop and Go,
Super Dollar, Lee’s Food
Mart, IGA, B’ville Grill, Minute Mart (Shell), Sav-A-Lot,
and Rite Aid.
In other business the City
Council:
• Made the following
changes to the alcohol
to be promoting that.
And these events are not
cheap to put on.”
However, the council
had its concerns.
“I don’t know about
raising taxes again,”
said councilman Lawson. “I know a penny’s
not much, but still a
penny’s a lot for some
people when they’ve
got so many things going on. I know we need
the parks and everything else, but I’m just
not sure that I’m gung
ho about the whole
thing myself right at the
moment.”
In the end, the council
agreed to table the recommendation in order to
take time to think it over.
adjourn was passed and
Smith, Smith and Gray
took their retreat from
crowd jeers.
“This is the end of it today,”
said Hinkle, “but his contract
doesn’t end until June 30.
Things can be done between
now and then.”
Superintendent Sprinkles spoke of the actions
taken my the majority of
the board.
“I’m obviously very
disappointed by the
board’s decision,” said
Superintendent Sprinkles. “I feel that I’ve
done the job that was
asked of me when I
came on as superintendent. Test scores have
increased and moral
throughout the district
has been on the upswing.
I think we do our very
best everyday to educate
our children. It’s in God’s
hands, but I’ll be ok.”
Superintendent Sprinkles wished to extend his
gratitude to all those who
supported him.
“All I can say is that I’m
humbled. I want to thank
them and I appreciate
everything they’ve done.
I’ve received so many texts,
phone calls, Facebook messages. It’s just been overwhelming and, if anything,
that matters so much more
to me than a job. They are
what really matters.”

crowd. At top left, Renee Hinkle demands answers from
opposing board members. Above, Sadi Harris, a KCHS senior, addresses the board on behalf of the student body. At
right, students from Knox Central applaude following Harris’
speech.
Harris, a senior at Knox
Central High School, stood
to speak of their disapproval.
“When I started my journey through Knox County
Schools, Mr. Sprinkles was
the very first face I saw,”
said Harris, in tears. “He is
still one the most influential people in my educational career. He taught us
to grow up, use our voices
and think on our own. You
are telling us that we can’t.
So, here’s my opinion, and
I hope my classmates back
me up, we don’t want you
on our graduation stage.
We want Mr. Sprinkles.”
Harris’ words brought
the crowd to their feet. Her
classmates surrounding
her nodded their head in
agreement.

ordinance No. 2016-1

and Section 15 (Drive-thru

reserves.

Knox County holds many
firsts especially in the area
of accomplishments of
numerous local women.
This second article in our
series for 2016 will focus
on the matriarch of the internationally known Phipps
Family Singers, Kathleen
Norris Helton. Kathleen
was the daughter of Maynard and Ella Matlock Helton, born April 22, 1924, on
Brittain Fork of Big Indian
Creek in Knox County. She
attended Emanuel School
where she began playing
the guitar and entertaining
at school programs each
Friday evening as well as
playing and singing western songs at music parties.
Kathleen and Arthur
were the most popular of
all the singers in the area
and were well on their
way to success, polishing
their Carter Family style of
music. While they were
playing music and perfecting their sound, they fell in
love and were married that
same year in 1937. Kathleen was 14 years old and
had just finished 8th grade.
In November, 1959, the
big break finally came for
the Phipps family. They
recorded their first single hit record for ACME
Recording Company based
in Manchester Kentucky.

Barbourville Patrolman
Adam Townsley pulled over
a green Dodge van around
6 p.m. Thursday, May 10,
on U.S. 25E after motorists
called 911 to complain about
it. The driver was unable
to produce identification,
and when Officer Townsley
checked the vehicle registration, it did not match.
Officer Townsley called
for backup and the K-9 unit.
Detective Steve Owens arrived
and interviewed the driver,
43-year-old Aaron Ray Roberts,
of Chicago, who gave the officers contradicting information
about his travel plans. Roberts
told Officer Townsley he was
from Macon, Ga., and on his
way to Illinois, but he told Det.
Owens he was from Atlanta,

little ones feel comfortable.
“I want to improve the medical care
here by offering services that were
not here in Barbourville,” said Doctor
Alnahhas. “I look to work with every
physician here to improve the health of
the babies in Knox County.”
The office, located on Treuhaft Blvd.,
is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through
Friday. For more information, or to make

Ga., on his way to Richmond,
Ky.
Roberts told Det. Owens
his ID was on the van’s center
console, and when Det.
Owens checked the console,
he spotted a small plastic bag
containing a white residue. Patrolman Josh Owens brought
in Rusty, the force’s drug dog,
who alerted to drugs several
times.
Aaron Roberts was arrested and taken to Barbourville
ARH Hospital, where he
refused a drug test.
The subsequent search
of the van revealed several
other plastic baggies with
the same powdery residue, a
black spray-painted toy gun,
multiple I.D.s, both male and
female, several cell phones,
containers of urine, feces
rolled up in a shirt, an expandable police baton, a machete, several switch blades
and spring-opening knives,
assorted drug paraphernalia,
and a drug kit.
The search took several
hours due to the vast amount
of items in the van and the
existence of urine and feces.
The officers found two
hidden compartments in
the body of the vehicle, one
behind the driver’s seat and
the other behind the sliding
door. However, both compartments were empty at the
time of the search.
Aaron Roberts was booked
into the Knox County Detention Center and charged with
operating a motor vehicle
under the influence of drugs
or alcohol, no license, no
insurance, three counts of possession of drug paraphernalia,
and possession of controlled
substances (cocaine and
unspecified). He is being held
on a $25,000 cash bond, and is
due in court on March 22.

BY BOBBIE POYNTER
EDITOR
In less than 24 hours, with the help of
Google and Facebook, the Mountain Advocate found the owner of a high school
class ring lost 16 years ago. On Jan. 21,
2016, the Mountain Advocate’s circulation
manager, Mike Giles spotted a class ring
nearly buried at the Manchester and Main
Street intersection. The ring, it turned out,
belonged to Donald Ridenour, who had
graduated from the now defunct Wynn
High School in Tennessee. The Campbell
County Chamber of Commerce was contacted, who then put the ring out on their
Facebook website. There were several
immediate responses, and in no time at
all, the Chamber was able to contact the
ring’s owner.
Ridenour recently picked up his ring,
which had been mailed to the Campbell
County Chamber, thanking everyone
for the efforts made in returning it. The
ring, he said, had been given to an old
girlfriend whom he heard had moved to
Barbourville after graduation. Ridenour
says he plans on passing the ring down to
his child.

Barbourville Independent Schools recently
hosted a mock automobile
accident. The drill was
held for the freshman
class in hopes of educating
the kids of the dangers of
drunk or distracted driving.

“This put it all in a
real-life perspective,” said
Shaddys Gambrel “I was
pretty scared. It taught me
to never drink and drive.”

At top left, Barbourville Fire Department used the drill as a training exercise. The vehicle’s
cab was dismembered to gain better access to the passenger.
At top right, Rescuers paused to let the freshmen get a closer look at the devastation caused
by drunk driving.
Above right, Knox County EMS loaded the ‘victim’ onto a stretcher and placed her in an
ambulance. Students watched as the ambulance drove away.
Above, Knox County Deputy Keith Liford asked the volunteer ‘drunk driver’ to perform a
series of tests to show students the signs of intoxication.

was called after just four innings. Lynn
Camp hosted several games throughout
the day between themselves, Harlan,
and Owsley County.
Austyn Weddle, senior, pitched the
first two innings and Eric Mitchell, freshman, pitched the last two. The Wildcats
had several hits while up at bat. Mitchell
and Dylan Brown, junior, led the team
in hits with two each and Mitchell also
earned four RBIs.
Head Coach Marc Estep is excited to
have a win under their belt so early in
the season, “I’m very pleased. Everyone has good attitudes at this point so
I think we are going to have a good
season.” The Wildcats faced the Harlan
Green Dragons later in the afternoon
and were defeated 8 to 7 in seven
innings.
Lynn Camp will travel to Williamsburg to play the Yellow Jackets at 5:30.

Hiker Curtis Penix crosses through the Cumberland Gap in Tennessee accompanied by reenactor Pamela Eddy. Penix
hiked the the Boone Trace last spring and will attempt the hike again beginning on April 2.
FOR THE MOUNTAIN ADVOCATE
Curtis Penix, from Michigan, returns to hike the
Kentucky portion of the
original Boone Trace from
Fort Boonesborough, near
Winchester, Ky, through
the Cumberland Gap to
Martin’s Station, located
in Lee County, Virginia
from April 2 through April
10. He and Givan Fox
had hiked the Trace from
Kingsport, TN over 16
days in March 2015.
Penix’s fifth-great
grandfather, Joshua
Penix, came with Daniel
Boone along Boone Trace
in 1779 and it has been
Penix’s wish to continue
to walk in the steps of
his great grandfather. It
has never been “hiked”
north to south in modern
times and this hike will
be again somewhat of a
research expedition. It
can be followed on his
web site www.lostinthewander.com where daily
blogs will be posted and a
schedule of his campsites
will be available. A map
with a GPS locator showing his position in real
time as the hike progresses will also be available to
view on the website.
Boone Trace was
opened by Daniel Boone
and his trailblazing party
during March and April
1775 and was the first
road, EVER, into the land
that was to become Kentucky. It is of enormous
historical significance to
the founding of Kentucky,
but also the opening of
the entire west. It is also
frequently confused with
the Wilderness Road,
which evolved out of
Boone Trace later in 1796.
Penix is a member of the
Friends of Boone Trace, Inc.
whose mission is to support
the hike and save the
remnants of Boone Trace
while elevating awareness
of its historical importance.
Avid hikers that would be
interested in preserving a
part of history are invited to
join the Keepers of Boone
Trace. Members will adopt
portions of the Trace and
help maintain and preserve
it for another 200 years. Any
interested hikers can contact Penix through his web
site or Friends of Boone
Trace online at www.boonetrace1775.com.
Mr. and Mrs. Darrin and Teresa Smith, of Himyar, would like
to announce the engagement and forthcoming marriage of
their daughter, Marissa Jordan, to Alexander James Smith.
Alex is the son of Dr. and Mrs. A.J. and Kimberly Smith of
Swan Pond.
Marissa is a 2013 graduate of Knox Central High School and
is currently enrolled at Art Institute online division, perusing
a career in interior design. She is currently employed at Forever 21 in Tempe Ariz., where she is a Department Manager.
Alex is a 2014 graduate of Knox Central High School, and
is currently enrolled at CRAS: School of Recording Arts in
Mesa Ariz., and is pursuing a career in audio engineering.
Marissa is the granddaughter of the late William Warf and
Mary Warf of Himyar, Herbert and Carol Smith of Bimble,
and the great-granddaughter of Dora Smith of Bimble.
Alex is the grandson of the late Floyd Marler and Donna Marler of Davis Bend and Ike and Debbie Hensley, the
late A.J. Smith and Freda Smith of Stephen Trace, and the
great-grandson of Christine Patterson of Davis Bend.

‘I don’t think that’s gonna It’s ‘shedding time’
help your itch any’
PUZZLE NO. 542
The little girl who told
us her alarm clock didn’t
work right on Fridays
came in on time today. I
praised her and said, “I’m
so glad you are here on
time today!” She quickly responded, “Yah, my
alarm clock didn’t know
today was Friday!”
Holly bolted through the
door on Monday morning excitedly and bubbled, “Guess what? I just
learned to put my shoes
on the right foot!” What
she was really telling me
was that she remembered
the trick I had taught her
on Friday. I modeled for
her how to put the big
toes of the shoes together
on the floor and then slip
them on that foot!
Mrs. Bargo! Kelli called,
“I am da’ Ma-er of the
school!” I asked, “Do you
mean the mayor?” She
said, “no da’ ma-er!” She

proceeded to get up and
get my green pointer stick.
She went to the quarter
and pointed to George
Washington. I asked, “Do
you mean you are the
president?” She sighed,
“No, I’m da’ ma-er! I tell
people what to do!”
A while back, I was
telling the kindergarteners
how it is so important for
them to know their address. I began to model on
the board what my written
address looked like. When
I got to Girdler, Kentucky I
asked, “Class what comes
next?” The students
shouted, “Wildcats!!!!” I
cracked up and thought,
“… absolutely!”
I’ve been telling my
class that we have to
be working super hard
because I have to prepare
them to go to first grade
soon. One of my little
boys said, “I’m gonna cry
every Friday because I
won’t get to see you at
school this summer… and
you know what else? My
mom and dad are gonna
cry because they aren’t
gonna want to see me and
my brother at home all
summer!”
Ever had an itch on your
foot before? One of my
kindergarteners had an
itch on her foot. I looked
over and she was scratching the bottom of her
shoe! I said, “I don’t think
that’s gonna help your itch
any.” She said, “Well huh!
Watch this!” She twisted
her foot inside her shoe
and said, “Ahhh now … all
better!” … And that was
that!

Not everyone is a baker.
Sometimes it’s just easier
to buy a beautiful cake
from the deli, slip off
the store wrapping, and
display it on a cake stand,
hoping your guests are
none the wiser. Come on,
we all have done it, no
one is judging. Often I plan
an elaborate, highly decorative, and scrumptious
dessert only to become
overwhelmed or short
on time and give up in
frustration.
Also, my second problem is I’m usually one
ingredient short when
trying to throw together a
masterpiece. Sometimes,

Confessions

Kristy Dean Cole
there isn’t a single nut of
any kind in the cupboard
when a recipe calls for
half a cup of chopped
pecans. Typical.
Yes, there are substitutions in most cases.
Thankfully these little
known gems are lifesavers
when you lack an ingredient or need something
that you don’t normally
have on hand. For example, you can substitute
butter, shortening, or oil
for applesauce or pureed
prunes, in some cases
even pumpkin puree.
Also, when short on sour
cream, substitute plain
non-fat yogurt in the same
amount called for. When
using a boxed chocolate
cake, there are ways of
enhancing it so it will
taste homemade such as
adding cola to the mix, instead of water in the same
amount-it really works!
Besides, when it comes to
baking, your philosophy is
similar to a magician, you
can’t give all your secrets
away! If you have a recipe

A letter to my mom
Dear Mom,
You were there when I was
born into this world (I had to
come from somewhere), and
you have been with me every
day since. Life has its ups and
downs but somehow you
made the downs easier for
me. I know that I do not say
thank you’s nearly enough and
I need to catch up on those.
So here I am mom, telling you
thank you for all that you have
done for me and for everything
else that you will do.
Mom, I want to thank you for
being there. You are the only
person in my life to be consistent. You have been there
since I was born and you have
been there for me every day
between then and now. You
have fixed all of my boo-boos
and nursed me back to health
when I have been sick. You
have been there to explain every awkward thing happening
to my body while growing up.
You have been there to help
me with my homework, and
still today I hit you up for your
intelligence. You have held me
while I cried over stupid boys,
told me not to worry about
them, and that they are just
that -- stupid.
I want to thank you for push-

ing me through my life so far.
Pushing me to try harder, pushing me to do my very best, and
pushing me to better myself
each day. No one has been
there to talk to me into always
trying harder. When I do something, you are always there to
tell me how great it was and
to keep it up. You coached me
through high school and now
college. Always telling me that
I need to go to class and to
get off of Facebook. You are
pushing me to better educate
myself so that I can live a
happy and comfortable life...
or just so you can vacation in
Florida at any time, haha.
I want to thank you for raising me the way you did. You
taught me that I have to work
for things in life if I want them.
You taught me not to be lazy
(even though it’s really hard
not to sleep in on some Mondays). You taught me to never
give up, to keep going. You
taught me that it is a bad day
and not a bad life. You taught
me to use my head and not my
feelings. You taught me not to
worry about what others are
saying or thinking about me
because they are obviously the
ones who have the problem.
You taught me to be strong.
You taught me that I am not
any better than anyone else
and that everyone is equal.
I want to thank you for raising me to be the person I am.
If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t
be where I am today. You have
been the ultimate role model
for not only myself but for others. Everyone who meets you,
you leave them with a positive
impact. You take time to learn
and connect with people, and
I can tell you that people do
appreciate that and you.Thank
you for being just an amazing
woman with all you do. You
show me exactly who I want
to be when I grow up, and I
want to thank you for being
such a wonderful woman so
that I could figure it out.
Thank you for being you,
Mom.
With love,
Your (favorite) daughter
