Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast In White Rock May 18

KIWANIS News:
 
For years, Kiwanis has held several pancake breakfasts a year—always at the Betty Ehart Senior Center in Los Alamos.

The breakfast will be free, but donations will be appreciated. (Kiwanis is still trying to make up the income it lost when ultra-dry conditions forced cancellation of the 2018 Kiwanis Fourth of July Fireworks in Overlook Park.)
 
Kiwanis suggests that if you live in White Rock (or Los Alamos), you should start your

I come from a very long line of shepherds who settled in the northern hills of El Rito and La Madera in the late 1500s. My mother’s generation of the Ortega and Gonzales families, who were in this line of business, was the last to live on that working farm up north.
 
When I was a kid, she and Grandma both shared lots of memories about those hard working days, their fun times at dances held at the SPMDTU, and the long periods of time (months) when the women were left alone to run the ranch

When done right, the espresso shot is covered with a dark brown, thick layer of crema, where much of the flavor from Read More
