4-H Food Competition
RAINS COUNTY LEADER
, Tiuu Thursday, laauary 23,1*92 >Pift4
by Linda Hass
Mrs. Yolanda Lyles of the
Bright Star Community is this
week’s featured cook, and says
she learned how to make all
her family’s East Texas favor-
ites by keeping her eyes open
when her mother-in-law, Mrs.
Betty Lyles, had the Drumstick
in Emory. And everyone re-
members the delicious food
found there!
Yolanda came to America as
- a foreign exchange student,
and attended the Alba school
system her senior year while
living with the James Reed
family. It was here she met her
future husband, Scott, who
would later travel all the way
to Guatemala to ask for her
hand in marriage. Yolanda was
the third in her family to come
to America to study, and keep-
ing the family tradition alive,
she and Scott have opened their
home to at least five of her
nieces and nephews so they, „ , . . ,
too, can learn here. At this Yolanda Lyles and two of her daughters, Jill & Jessica
time they are providing a home
for their very handsome
nephew Alex, who is now at-
tending college.
The Lyles are the parents of
three daughters; Julie and Jill
are both junior high students at
Rains, and Jessica is a third
grader at Rains Elementary.
Jill is a member of the Rains
Junior High Band, and Jessica
is playing Little Dribblers
basketball.
In her spare time, Yolanda
enjoys sewing, cross stitch and
painting. She and the girls like
to paint T-shirts together, and
she has been teaching them to
cross stitch. With their dad, the
girls are enjoying helping raise
cattle, and nave been spending
a lot of time bottle feeding
newborn calves.
The Lyles are members of
the Sand Springs Baptist
Church of Mineola where they
are veiy active. They make
their living as farmers, and
raise big crops of sweet pota-
toes pnd watermelons each
year. She’s included an un-
usual ‘sweet potato’ recipe for
us to try, and several other
family favorites you’re sure to
love.

forgave us. You have missed
something if you haven’t met
Eva. She is one of those people
that can do everything.
Jean Dollar, Joyce Perimon
and I went to see the Rains
boys and girls play basketball
Tuesday night. I saw Garth
Looney, Kim Hoover, Ivanell

munity, and several kids that
went to school with Shantil El-
lison and played basketball and
baseball together. Irma Spinks
wanted to go with us to the b ill
games but hid to work.
Katie Bruce got a good
report Monday when Brady

Alice Knight's arm wasn’t
broken and is a little better.
She can open the refrigerator
now.
Loudene Johnson returned
home from Sugarland Monday

her daughter and family. She
reported a good time. Jewel
Daugherty sure missed her and
is happy she is home.

ing for a little while just to lis-
ten. Court met at 9:30 under
the jurisdiction of Judge Lanny
Ramsay.
,, Shantil Ellison is having a
relapse ofthe flu and had to get
some more medicine from the
doctor. She missed Thursday
and Ttiuay at school.
Jinks Terry was in Sulphur
Springs Friday to see his doc-
tor. He hasn’t been feeling
well. He told Opal that he may
have bronchial pneumonia. I
was there Thursday and he was
feeling better. He didn’t wan*
to go to the doctor Friday, but
Opal Faye Morgan said ’’yes”
so he just laughed.
I plan to go see Aunt Punk
Watson while I am in Sugar-
land Homer Bishop and Kathy
Bishop are going on vacation
so I’ll stay with Meredith and
Megan Bishop.
Jewel Daugherty got a good
report in Tyler from her back
