8A COTTAGE GROVE SENTINEL MAY 23, 2018 FOOD FOR THOUGHT: Memorial Day recipies Betty Keiser’s Cook’s Corner M emorial Day is a bit- ter-sweet holiday. It’s a day to fl y the fl ag while you enjoy your holiday picnic. First and foremost it’s a day of re- membrance. A day to honor the men and women in our military. It is a day to remem- ber that when they signed up, all of them were willing to die for their country. It is a time to remember those who died in service and those who fought and survived. It’s a time to re- member those who are cur- rently serving. In our family, we did that by attending the local Memori- al Day parade. When the kids were little they would dress in red, white and blue; sit on the curb and wave their little fl ags as the parade passed by. Th ey quickly learned to stand up, take their hats off , put their hands over their hearts and respectfully salute every fl ag. Later, in their teen years they marched in those same pa- rades. Kathy was a cheer leader; Jeff played the trumpet and John the trombone in the bands. We do this in remembrance of two of my uncles who served in WWII. Missouri farm boys, they both enlisted early on. Un- cle Red served in the Air Force in England that worked on the fi ghter planes and endured the raids of the German Luft waff e. His brother Lee, enlisted in the Army, and served in the Battle of Normandy. He was mentally mortally wounded and would sadly, never be the same. So, this year, as usual, my husband will don his US Army hat and we will pay tribute to all those in the military by at- tending the Memorial Day Celebration in downtown Cot- tage Grove. It begins at 11 a.m. at the CG Armory and then a procession from the Armory to the Memorial Park at River Rd. and Main St. Members of mo- torcycle groups and people on FARFALLE GARDEN PASTA SALAD 1 (16 ounce) box farfalle pasta ½ cup extra virgin olive oil, divided ½ cup red wine vinegar 1 teaspoon lemon rind, grated 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard Salt and pepper to taste ½ pound fresh green beans, cut into 1-inch pieces 1 medium zucchini, diced 2 medium carrots, shredded, rinsed, and drained well 1 pint cherry tomatoes, cut in half 1 (4 oz.) package crumbled feta cheese 2 green onions, trimmed and sliced 1 tablespoon fresh oregano (or ½ teaspoon dried) 1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped Cook farfalle according to package directions.

Serves 8-10 as a side dish. foot are led by the police and a bag piper, to the park where the event ends with a speaker and a 21-gun salute. I hope to see you there. If you miss the parade, there is also a National Moment of Remembrance that encourag- es Americans to stop whatever they’re doing, at 3 p.m. (local time), for a moment of silence to remember and honor those who have died in service to the U.S. Founder Carmella LaSpa- da says, “It’s a way we can all help put the memorial back in Memorial Day.” Aft er that, most of us will join family and friends for a picnic bar-b-que. Today’s rec- ipe is a side dish that can be prepared in advance to go with hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken or ribs. Enjoy! And God bless America! Contact Betty Kaiser at 541-942-1317 or email bchatty@bettykaiser.com The origin of American's day to remember its fallen soldiers Memorial Day was fi rst known as Decoration Day and was borne out of the Civil War. on May 30, 1868, General John Logan, a national commander of the Grand Army of the Re- public, decreed General Order No. 11, which designated the day for the “purpose of strew- ing with fl owers, or otherwise decorating the graves of com- rades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village and hamlet churchyard in the land.” May 30th was chosen because it wasn’t the anniversary of any particular battle. It took several years for the fi rst state to recognize the hol- iday, which New York adopted in 1873. By 1890, all northern states recognized Decoration Day. When the holiday changed from commemorating those who died fi ghting the Civil War to honoring Americans who died fi ghting in any war aft er World War I, the South began to recognize it as well. Honoring the military Although Memorial Day pays homage to the brave people who perished fi ghting for their country, it also is an opportunity to recognize the military men and women and their families who continue to work to ensure the freedom of Americans. Th e United States Armed Forces is renowned for its size and strength. Various sources suggest the size of the United States military is somewhere between 1.4 and 1.6 million active service people. Th e mil- itary is comprised of the Army, Army National Guard, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard. Each of these military branches also has its own reserves.
