Introducing the No Accessory Crunchy Icon Oatmeal Cookie

Posted by Fred Steiner on Sunday, April 3, 2016

You know, and I know, there are as many oatmeal cookie recipes in the world today as there are fields of oats.
 
As for me, I like a crunchy oatmeal cookie with no accessories – including raisins, chocolate chips, walnuts or whatever you might add.
 
Thanks to the Better Homes and Gardens New Cookbook, I found a no-frills oatmeal. And, with a couple of my own twists, created the No Accessory Crunchy Icon Oatmeal Cookie.
 
The original recipe says you’ll end with 54 cookies. Since I like large cookies, my alterations ended with 24 cookies.

Maybe Leap Year Day should be a special holiday

Posted by Fred Steiner on Monday, February 29, 2016

By Monty Siekerman
How did you spend Leap Year Day?

Probably, like any other day: going to work on Monday, beginning another week or, if you are elderly, making appointments with doctors and labs.

So, we asked: how did you celebrate Leap Year Day. The consistent answer: nothing special, just another day, went about my daily routine.

Merchants are letting a good opportunity go by. No Leap Year greeting cards or flower specials, no abundance of red, white, and blue flags.

Observations, insights and sightings: What the Ada Icon means to Ada

Posted by Fred Steiner on Saturday, February 20, 2016

By Monty Siekerman
As I see it, Fred Steiner is an Innovator.

He began The Ada Icon a mere four years ago. In that short time, his efforts at founding this online means of communication garnered him and his wife Mary the award Business of the Year in Ada.

He accomplished that feat without being here 50 or 100 years. It took less than four years. Why?

Because The Ada Icon (and The Bluffton Icon, too) are effective in many ways.

The Icons build a sense of community in a village. People often report to me, "I didn't know all of that was happening in Ada."

This village is only about one square mile in size, but much goes on here.
