Frogtown, CA...Whiskerino Dinner Dance on April 13, 2013 was where men from the community could show off their hairy side by competing for the best whisker and beard display. We stopped by Mark Twain Hall just as things were getting under way. The prospective Saddle Queens were out front greeting and the large group that is vying for Miss Calaveras were just inside. We saw several very hairy men as they arrived. That can only mean one thing. The 2013 Calaveras County Fair and Frog Jump Jubilee is less than a month away.

Over the last 100 years the way we keep our homes has changed. A house wife is called a domestic engineer. In our home we have built in vacuums, microwaves and dishwashers. But some home making arts are making a come back. Baking and canning are more popular today than they have been in several decades. Some believe this new found popularity is due to “Foodies.
