Message from MC Sheriff

We have had another busy week at the Marion County Sheriff’s Department. We are working on developing systems and procedures for inmate medical care. As our current medical provider for the inmates has resigned, we are seeking to find a new medical provider. This is no small task and a very expensive endeavor.

HB’s Homestyle Cooking

Welcome back to my kitchen y’all. I sure hope everyone is having a great week! Since the weather has been so pretty and nice most of this last week, I figured we needed to have a potluck/grill season recipe. We’ve been spending more and more time outside and with the daylight lasting longer we have been grilling more throughout the week. So, this week’s recipe is Heather’s Smoked Cheesy Taters. This is a huge hit at any family get together or potluck we take it to and there is never enough. I usually triple this recipe for large get togethers and it never goes to waste.
