At the Table with Cris April 1st is National Sourdough Bread Day! As part of the California
Gold Rush, sourdough was the principal bread made in Northern California and is still a part of the culture of San Francisco today. The bread was so common at that time that the word “sourdough” became a nickname for the gold prospectors. In The Yukon and Alaska, a “sourdough” is also a nickname given to someone who has spent an entire winter north of the Arctic Circle. It refers to their tradition of protecting their sourdough during the coldest months by keeping it close to their body. The sourdough tradition was also carried into Alaska and western Canadian territories during the Klondike Gold Rush.
Thursday, April 25th at 7:00 p.m. The Holland Community Theatre presents this beloved story of aging, family, and forgiveness. This is the love story of Ethel and Norman Thayer, returning to their summer home on Golden Pond for their forty-eighth year. Norman, a retired professor nearing eighty, maintains his wit despite health issues, while Ethel, ten years younger, complements him with her appreciation for life's simple pleasures. Their daughter and her fiancé visit, then leave for Europe, entrusting the fiancé's teenage son to Norman and Ethel. The boy becomes the grandchild they've longed for, teaching them about modern teenage life. As summer fades, a mild heart attack brings Norman and Ethel closer. Despite time's passage, their bond remains strong, hinting at the possibility of another summer on Golden Pond. Ticket prices will vary depending on if we have enough for a group rate but are listed between $17.00 per person. Please sign up at the table outside of the activity room as soon as possible.
