From the EDITOR You don’t know what we will find, why don’t you come with me Little Girl on a magic carpet ride. Fifteen years ago, when Judy and I first started working on the idea of publishing a magazine, we would become so excited just talking about it with each other, stewing over it, and trying to figure out a positive answer for anything negative that someone would say. Big chore! Little did we realize that after the release of the first issue we would receive a total of 48 emails/phone calls. Out of this 48, we had two negative statements. We spent hours proofing our articles and still had grammar mistakes. Get ready, because I will have more in the future. The second negative statement to us, was from a business owner complaining that we did not call him for an ad. So, Thank you for the past 15 years! And rest assured there will be more mistakes. You would never believe all the new friends I have made in this short time of publishing The Corridor Magazine, from Arcadia to

Sapulpa, and Stillwater to Prague! Recently, I attended the Payne County Fair in Stillwater and had a great time. At least I think I had a really great time; you know with the dementia I can remember things from 50 years ago but not what I did five minutes ago. No, this old man did not ride the rides, but I do recall monkeying around and playing with the pink pigs. I may have thrown a few hoops and schooled a carney on baseball toss, can I say carney? Is that politically correct?? I have my doubts about politics these days so forgive me for any offense my mind may cause. You don’t know what we can see, why don’t you tell your dreams to me. Fantasy will set free. As sung by Steppenwolf in Magic Carpet Ride.

PA S TO R PA U L’ S PA S S A G E S by Pastor Paul Ragle

IT’S GOOD TO CELEBRATE THE

GOODNESS OF THE HOLY ONE! Having served as a local church pastor for more than 40 years, I know that local churches are great places for local festivals. I have seen churches hold biblical arts festivals, Vacation Bible School festivals, Brush Arbor festivals, craft fairs and rummage sales – all great events for lifting local people’s spirits, providing fun, celebrating culture and raising a few funds. One church I know invites people to tour their building – they have a nativity festival each year in which members of the congregation on display nativity scenes they have collected over the years. People from all over the state show up in the weeks before the holidays to see the many nativity scenes. Other congregations sponsor Easter egg hunts and drive-through Nativity displays. All of these events are festivals where people celebrate culture and the goodness of life. While a student pastor in seminary, I pastored a little Disciples congregation in Dublin, Texas. It was a tiny church but there were several families within the membership that farm families - mostly raising peanuts and running cattle. I discovered that these families also had a gift for growing wonderful watermelons. I drove out to Dublin every weekend from the seminary at Texas Christian University to discharge my ministerial duties. I would stay in the church parsonage and I fell in love with the folks at Dublin First Christian Church and its community. I taught a Sunday School class for all the kids in the church at one time and I loved every minute of my weekends in Dublin. Normally I drove out to Dublin on Saturdays, but one Thursday evening, one of the church leaders called me. He said, “The melons are ready. We’re having our annual watermelon feast tomorrow night. You don’t want to miss it. Come hungry!” I made a special point to drive out to Dublin Friday afternoon after I finished my last seminary class at Brite Divinity School.

20 THE CORRIDOR MAGAZINE / SEPTEMBER 2021

I pulled up in front of the parsonage, seeing a farm truck was parked outside fellowship hall at the church. It was fully loaded with wonderful green watermelons! Several of our men were carrying loads of watermelons inside the building. I rolled up my sleeves helped to move melons. I had never seen that many watermelons. Long rows of tables covered with paper had been set up inside the fellowship hall. All the fellowship dinners served in that hall were wonderful, but this fellowship dinner was like no other I had experienced . By 5:00 pm the place was packed! All seats filled. Of course, there was the usual fried chicken, potato salad and other sides on a serving table, and after I delivered a supper prayer, folks lined up to get their fill. Dr. Pate, who had served as the church’s Sunday School superintendent for three and a half decades saddled up to me where I was waiting in line. He said, “Paul, since you’re new to all of this, I’d better give you a piece of advice. Don’t eat too much chicken and other stuff; you’re gonna want to save room. At this shindig, the watermelon is the main course!” In the short time I had known Joe Pate, I had learned to trust his wisdom. I ate sparingly. Before I could finish my plate, men of the congregation had started setting a full half of a watermelon in front of every person sitting at the tables. The meat of the watermelon was deep red and sweet. I don’t know how they managed to chill all those melons, but they were delightfully cold. I abandoned my supper plate and dug into the melon. Sweet and juicy! Best I ever tasted! I hadn’t even got close to the rind with my fork before one of the men grabbed my half a watermelon and replaced it with a new one. “We eat only the hearts of the melons at a feast!” he told me. I had no difficulty eating the heart of the second watermelon. And half of a third. It is good to celebrate the goodness of the Holy One!

Delilah’s DILEMMAS by

DIANE BROWN “Delilah,” Eli began the night before he and Dooby were to travel north to purchase materials for a new log cabin that would replace the mobile home that had burned two weeks prior. “While I’m away, I expect you to set a wedding date.” Delilah’s mouth dropped open and her eyes went wide. “Expect?” she said incredulously. Joel winced and groaned. “That rather sounds like an ultimatum,” Delilah said. They weren’t fighting words after all. Eli sent Joel on to bed and sat down beside Delilah on the sofa. He touched the back of his hand to her cheek and caressed it gently. “You know I go weak in the knees when you do that,” she whispered. Eli smiled, then kissed her sweetly, tenderly. “I know,” he said. “But since you’re sitting down it really doesn’t matter, does it?” “You know what I mean,” she said sheepishly. Eli laughed. “I do,” he said, and he kissed her again. “I’m not going to pressure you about this, I promise,” Eli said. “But I do have a couple of questions that I want you to give serious consideration.” “Go on,” Delilah said hesitantly. She didn’t believe Eli could say anything that had not already been said by her third, fourth, and fifth husbands who also argued in favor of marriage but met their untimely death after marrying her. Or so she thought she’d heard it all. “Do you think I’m immortal?” Eli asked. “What?” Delilah said, abashed. “Your argument seems to be that if I don’t marry you, I’ll never die,” Eli said. “No. It’s not that. It’s just . . . I mean,” Delilah fumbled. “I. Will. Die,” Eli said. “I won’t live forever. None of the

22 THE CORRIDOR MAGAZINE /SEPTEMBER 2021

DELILAH’S PLACE men you married were going to live forever.” Delilah rolled her eyes. “Well obviously I can’t argue with that,” she said. “Whatever time we have, whether it’s twenty minutes or twenty years,” Eli said, taking hold of her hand. “We need to enjoy it and focus on the joy of it.” “Alright,” Delilah sighed, standing up and stretching. “I’ll have set a date by the time you get back from your trip.” But by the time she got to the top of the stairs, with Eli in tow, the date had been set. They would marry two weeks after he and Dooby returned from their trip. “Thank you,” Eli said as he bent to kiss Delilah good night, at her bedroom door. “I love you.” “Yes, I know,” Delilah said coyly. “Now go to bed. You need your rest.” As Delilah pulled the covers up and under her chin she wondered if she was making a mistake. “Focus on the joy of it.” Eli had said. Don’t languish in the misery. It would be alright. Everything would be perfectly lovely. Sixth time was a charm. That was the mantra that lulled her to sleep. The day was overcast. It had rained early that morning leaving the air thick with heated dampness. It was Delilah’s sixth wedding day, and the hottest of them all. Delilah had dressed in an off-white linen pant suit with a silk turquoise tank top beneath the double-breasted jacket. On her feet were white, strappy sandals; the only new item to complete the ensemble she had allowed herself. Her long, dark curls had been twisted into a loose knot on top her head. Her makeup was minimal. She wore pearl drop earrings, a twenty-inch strand of 6-millimeter pearls, and her Ruby engagement ring on her right hand. Eli, Dooby, and Joel dressed in crisply starched shirts


and jeans, and shiny cowboy boots. Delilah, Eli, Dooby, and Joel had taken the Camaro to town, where they would meet Karon at her house. The plan was simple; Dooby would ride with Karon in her new Mustang, and Eli would follow her to her church where Delilah and Eli would be married by Karon’s pastor. When they pulled into Karon’s drive, they discovered Karon decked out in a lavender and hot pink, floral, sleeveless sheath dress that fell about mid-thigh, with a three-inch wide, gold metallic belt at her waist, cinched so tightly it was a wonder she could draw breath. Hot pink, open toed sandals with three-inch stiletto heels donned her feet. Setting skewed upon her head was an enormous hot pink, straw hat blanketed in layer upon layer of feathers in varying shades of purple. Apparently, she had been out in the blistering heat chasing Bullet, her maniacal, hairless Chiweenie dog. She was a bit . . . disheveled. The dog was not. There was a stretch of silence inside the car as everyone stared at the explosion of color on the front porch. “Did y’all discuss wardrobe?” Dooby finally asked. “Nope,” Delilah replied. “Hmm, probably should’ve done that,” Joel said, as Karon started toward the car with the ugliest dog in the world clutched tightly under her right arm, and her handbag draped in the bent elbow of her left arm. “Too late now,” Eli said.

“Karon is usually impeccably dressed,” Joel said. “Not that I know anything about high fashion.” “Are you ready?” Dooby said as he exited the Camaro. “Don’t I look ready?” Karon barked. Clearly the answer was no, but Dooby didn’t dare say it. “Are you bringing Bullet?” Dooby asked in the fakest happy voice he could muster. Karon opened her car door and tossed the dog into the back seat. “Stupid beast keeps getting out of the back yard,” she growled. “And when we get back, I want you and Eli to find the hole in the fence. And do not suggest puttin’ him in the house seein’ how he’s been chewin’ on the furniture every time I leave. Separation anxiety my . . .” “Well, this ought to be interesting,” Eli said with a chuckle. “This is a bad omen. That’s what this is,” Delilah said under her breath. She thought it was odd that Karon would suggest Eli help find the hole in the fence. Had Karon forgotten that Eli and Delilah would be leaving for their honeymoon right after the ceremony? When they reached the church, Karon insisted on leaving the car running and the air conditioner on so that her precious baby wouldn’t perish in the heat. She poured a small bowl of water and placed it on the floor in the back seat. Then she adjusted her hat and belt and

258-5002 121 W. 10th • Chandler • IAFR.com/Thompsons THE CORRIDOR MAGAZINE / SEPTEMBER 2021 23


pressed her hair with the palm of her hand. At the steps of the church, the smooth bottom of Delilah’s new sandal made contact with a small pebble, and down she went, face first. She caught herself with her hands, but not before hitting her knees hard on a step, causing a slight tear in her slacks. Thankfully, she was not injured. Though she couldn’t help but think that this was yet another bad portent. Once inside the church, greetings were exchanged, and the party was ushered to the front. Brief instructions were given. Everyone took their place; Dooby at Eli’s side, Karon at Delilah’s side, and Joel stood next to Dooby. “Do you, Elijah Blu Solomon, take this woman, Delilah Leigh Beauregard Hamilton Fisher Smith Conner Smith to be your lawfully wedded wife?” Pastor Caldwell asked, after the initial salutations and proclamations. “Elijah Blu?” Karon exclaimed with a laugh. Delilah and Eli cut a sharp look at Karon. “Sorry, sorry,” Karon said, shaking her head vigorously. She dropped her head and rolled her eyes. “Elijah Blu,” she added under her breath. “I do,” Eli said with a smile. “And do you, Delilah,” Pastor Caldwell began. “You can dispense with all the last names,” Delilah interjected pleasantly, placing her hand on the pastor’s arm, and giving it a little squeeze. The last thing she

wanted was another reminder of the number of times she had been widowed; the number of men that had met their demise simply because they had been married to her. Though Eli’s argument had been convincing, she still harbored that same, old guilt. At that moment, a parishioner entered the front door of the church with a barking, snarling Bullet in his arms. “Excuse me,” the gentleman called out, as Bullet jumped free and started to race down the aisle. “Someone left that dog in a car.” Before anyone could do something, or even register that something was about to happen that would require something being done to avert the other something, Bullet had attached himself, by way of his teeth, to Pastor Caldwell’s ankle. Poor Pastor Caldwell screamed and kicked. Karon screamed and grabbed for the dog. Dooby screamed and swatted at the pastor’s leg. Eli yelled. Delilah yelled. Joel laughed. The skin was broken but did not require stitches. After Karon assured Pastor Caldwell that Bullet had had all his shots, she returned the mut to the car while Delilah applied antiseptic cream and bandages to his wound. The wedding resumed at light speed. Gold bands were exchanged. Official pronouncements were made. “All that’s left,” Pastor Caldwell said. “Is to sign the marriage license.”

Everyone looked happily at Eli. He winced. “Knew I was forgetting something,” he said. “You’re kidding, right?” Karon said. “Not kidding,” Eli said. “It’s on the kitchen counter next to the back door.” Delilah started laughing. “Of course you forgot it. Why would you NOT forget it?” Her laugh increased to near hysteria. “Just bring it by next time you’re in town and I’ll sign it,” Pastor Caldwell said anxiously. “Make sure you and Delilah sign it and Dooby and Karon.” Eli kissed Delilah’s cheek and told her to wait while he fetched the car. Dooby, Karon, Joel, Delilah, and the pastor moved to the porch of the church exchanging small talk. Suddenly, there was an odd whistling sound from above. Everyone looked up to see a silver, blue ball with a fire red tail streaking through the sky toward them. “What is that?” Karon asked, as the object got closer. “It looks like some sort of metal,” Pastor Caldwell said. “Oh, my Lord!” Karon yelled, as she began backing up. “It’s too close.” “Looks like part of a satellite,” Joel said, backing up as well, and taking hold of Delilah’s arm to pull her back. “NO!” Delilah screamed, as she watched the fiery object crash into the Camaro. n

TWENTY MINUTES.

She was married in twenty minutes.

Or was she?

Since the license had not been signed and filed, were they legally married? Sixth wedding, sixth funeral. What will she do now?

Delilah’s saga will continue in the October installment of Delilah’s Dilemmas in The Corridor Magazine.

Corridor

United They Sing

TRAVIS FITE and MONICA TAYLOR Travis Fite has been a part of the Tulsa/Northeast Oklahoma music scene for some time. He’s a songwriter, guitar player, engineer and soundman. He and Monica Taylor, the Cimarron Songbird, hostess of the Prairie Breeze concerts in Perkins, were recently married. I asked himRR: Where were you born? TF: Charlottesville, VA. My Dad was in law school there @ UVA…. during the Vietnam War where he eventually served after school stateside. We moved around for a few years (Army bases) and then decided to settle back in OK, where both Mom and Dad were born, to raise my sister and me. RR: Were you from a musical family? TF: Somewhat yes, on my mother’s side. My great grandmother (Big Mama) picked guitar, sang songs and dipped snuff. They were typical kinda Okie folks who did, at times, migrate to California for work during the depression. He told me his mother sings beautifully, and that he has talented cousins and aunts, one trained in Operatic style who performed with her husband in Russian Folk and bluegrass influenced ensembles. They promoted both Russian and American folk and bluegrass styles, and played a wide range of instruments, including Balalaika, Domra, mandolin, autoharp, acoustic guitar, dulcimer and upright bass.. His father played trombone in the highschool band with Leo Kottke. Yes, THAT Leo Kottke, who later switched to guitar. His dad’s band experience ended there but not his interest in music. Kottke went on to tremendous success in the 70’s with his masterful acoustic guitar style.

26 THE CORRIADOR MAGAZINE / SEPTEMBER 2021

Travis said,‘...my father played a HUGE role in the development of my musical ear. He allowed me to find my way without pressure and he turned me on to a wide variety of music, including Soul, Blues, Jazz, Bluegrass, early Honky Tonk, Outlaw Country, Black Gospel, 60’s Psychedelia as well as the great Texas Troubadours, to name a few. Leo Kottke would occasionally show up at their family home to play for friends and family, sometimes long into the night. He said that those kinds of experiences and love of recorded music always resonated with him and pushed his imagination. He began playing in band in grade school and junior high and briefly in high school before turning to voice and guitar in hopes of feeding the urge to explore jazz. He played on his own through college. He learned much more by simply spending a lot of time listening. (Great


advice for all of us! No matter what the topic!) He moved to New Orleans for a few years to soak in the jazz influence. Eventually coming back to Tulsa and then on to San Francisco to further his musical experience. TF: I’ve lead or been a part of a lot of bands, Phat Thumb (Tulsa based) What’s That (Bay Area, Soul funk band), Full Flava Kings (the early years) Wayman Tisdale band, Denada, Soul Rebelz (Reggae band), Uncle Funkus (a solo loop station funk project where I played and recorded all the parts live, beatbox, bass, guitar) And many other collaborations with Jared Tyler, Steve White, and the talented Monica Taylor, now my lovely my wife, to name a few. He plays a variety of styles and does them well. You can hear them all by searching for Travis Fite music on iTunes or other music media. On Facebook: Facebook. com/travisfiteart

Monica Taylor has been a part of the Cimarron Valley Red Dirt music scene for a couple of decades and has served as inspiration to many other artists. She’s also a mainstay of the Cimarron Breeze concert series held in Perkins. A few years ago she appeared on Garrison Keillor’s ‘Prairie Home Companion’ radio program and turned in a beautiful performance. She’s toured and recorded with Patrick Williams as the ‘Farm Couple’, with the Cherokee Maidens western swing group, as well as her band, the Red Dirt Ramblers. I asked how she became known as the Cimarron Songbird. She told me one night long ago, in front of Hideaway Pizza in Stillwater, friends Jimmy LaFave and Bob Childers came up with it. It stuck. (Childers and LaFave, both now deceased, were huge influences to generations of ‘red dirters’.) RR: I know you’ve recently gotten married. Can you tell us how you met Travis? MT: Our paths had crossed a few times 20 or 25 years ago, as he used to come out to The River’s Edge in Tulsa, an outdoor cafe on the Arkansas River, to listen to me and Patrick Williams when we would play our roots folk music there as The Farm Couple. When she was recording her second solo album, Cotton Shirt, it was done at her friend Jared Tyler’s studio in

Tulsa. Travis Fite was a part of that studio and she got to know him better at that time. She found him pleasant, professional and very helpful. MT: So when I needed a sound man for the very first Cimarron Breeze concert, I called him! Every time he pulled up in his car to unload equipment for a show I felt like ‘no matter what else happens tonight, I know the sound will be great, and that Travis would make me laugh! And the sound has been great, and he continues to make me laugh! I noticed via social media that the two of them also recently visited Europe. I asked and it seems it wasn’t in their plans. It turns out Travis’ daughter, Olivia, was acting in a new movie ‘Wildfire’ based on the Michael Martin Murphy song of the same name. The movie was filmed largely in eastern Oklahoma. Travis and Monica both had a brief musical moment in the movie performing a song Monica had written and Travis had a hand in writing some of the soundtrack. As a result they found themselves being invited to the Cannes Film Festival as part of that film entourage and were surprised because such a trip had not been in their immediate plans. Now back home, they’re doubling down on the completion of three recordings. Monica’s new solo project titled, Trains, Rivers and Trails, her best to date according to her husband, and a double vinyl recording, the first of three, hopefully, highlighting Red Dirt songs that inspired three or four generations of younger Red Dirt artists and fans. This includes more than 50 Oklahoma musicians. Too numerous to mention here! They’re using their own Barnhouse Studio but much of the recording is being done under the auspices of Charlene Ripley, a Perkins alum, at Ripley’s Farm Studio in Glencoe. The Ripley’s owned the infamous Church Studio in Tulsa for 20 years before retiring to the old home place. Steve Ripley, who passed away in 2019, left a legacy of deep musical ties and influence that will last for years. After their recent glimpse of the music scene in France and Spain they’re excited to plan a musical tour there in the not too distant future. But first these in-progress recordings must be buttoned down and ready for launch. If you haven’t yet had the pleasure to hear these folks, you can always take corrective action and get right with the world! Find out more information here: https://monicataylormusic.com Monica also adds that the Cimarron Breeze folks will be hosting Malcom Holcombe and Jared Tyler in concert at the Old Church in Perkins at the Territorial Plaza on September 20th at 7 o’clock.

A Window into Fall Activities PHOTOS by LEAH WRIGHT / SALT DRIFTER PRODUCTIONS

Gathering, Foraging, Baking, Festivals, and Photography by ALANA OWEN As the seasons shift and the inevitable changes come upon us, our focus also changes from outdoor warm-weather activities to indoor events, hobbies, friends, family gatherings, and fall festivals. In California our seasons were not quite so dramatic compared to Oklahoma; however, I have learned to embrace and even enjoy the cooler temperatures we experience in Oklahoma. My relocation has even prompted new interests and hobbies. For instance, foraging and baking the goodies I gather. Oklahoma fall brings us those wonderful wild persimmons and pecans. What a marvelous mix the two ingredients make, especially when combined with farm fresh eggs and home harvested honey: the makings of “A Taste of Oklahoma”, my own unique cookie recipe. Even my husband, one of the individuals who mows state highways for a living, has found a new appreciation for what he refers to as nuisance shrubs (wild persimmon trees). Years ago, I ran across an old farmstead with a beautiful orchard of fruit trees surrounding the house. The pears and apples were falling on the ground and many of those that remained on the trees were partially ravished by birds and other creatures. I decided to knock on the door and offer to barter in exchange for picking some apples and pears. The homeowner, Ruby, was sitting inside with a TV in the background while knitting something that was not yet identifiable. Ruby motioned

for me to come in, so I opened the door. She asked me to sit down and visit, which I was glad to oblige. Ruby introduced herself and continued to talk as if we had been long friends just meeting up again. Ruby shared her life story and that of the old home where she resided. I introduced myself to Ruby as her neighbor and said that I would love to harvest some of her apples and pears in return for jams and sauces. Two weeks after that initial meeting I returned to Ruby’s house with apple and pear jam, along with a dozen farm fresh eggs. From that point on, Ruby and I became good friends. One year I entered one of her knitted animals and a potholder in the local County Fair; both won first place. A short time later, one of Ruby’s family members came to my home to advise me of her passing. I was heartbroken. Today my own apple and pear trees are producing nicely in a small orchard at my own ranch. Each year I pick them, I smile in thankfulness and think of my friend Ruby and all the seasons we passed visiting in her living room. If you are seeking ideas for your own fall fun beyond the annual festivals, consider making a “Fall Bucket List.” Friend and neighbor Leah Wright came by my home to do a photography session for my article and shared her love of a hobby that recently turned professional. Leah, who moved to Oklahoma a year and a half ago for her daughter’s surgery, said she loves fall photography primarily for all the foliage picture opportunities. Leah is planning to travel to North Carolina this fall for a photography gig and some fun.


pumpkins, field trips, special events, and concession stands. The fall events begin Friday, September 24, 2021, and end Sunday, December 19, 2021. The ranch is open Thursdays from 1 PM to dark, Fridays from 1 PM to 10 PM, and Saturdays and Sundays from 10 PM to dark. If you plan to make this fall festival a destination, check times and confirm opening in advance. For those seeking to bring the festivities to their location, A & K farms, out of Chandler, will travel all over the state to provide a petting zoo, pony rides, carnival and vendor events, photography packages, birthday parties and other special events. Other areas along The Corridor that offer farm festivals include Grider Farm Pumpkin Patch in the Perkins/Stillwater area, and Pleasant Valley Farms in Sand Springs. Cushing is hosting their 33rd Annual Festival in the Park, September 25, 2021, from 9 AM to 2 PM. This event will have free rides and other attractions, including Capstone the Magician and various vendor booths to shop at. A local group plans to kick off the event with a run at 7 AM in Memorial Park. Entertainment will take place throughout the day at the park’s amphitheater stage. The event will host vendors providing the opportunity to create your own art for a small fee. Nonprofit organizations will have bake sales and other food items available for purchase. Ten different chili specials will be available as part of the Cushing Lions Club Chili Cook-Off sample and vote event. For festivals and activities of a more giving nature, consider attending the Fall Festival hosted by Helping Hands Community Foundation, October 2, 2021, at the Lincoln County Fairgrounds in Chandler. This event will take place from noon to 5 PM. Entrance is free with a can of corn or green beans, and activities include a pumpkin patch, vendors, food trucks, bounce house, pony rides, and pumpkin painting. If you are looking for something quieter and quainter, possibly in an informal home setting, consider a Friendsgiving party. Friendsgiving, something that has become popular among younger adults, is often held a week before the traditional Thanksgiving holiday. Typically, in a potluck stress-free style, friends can gather to celebrate their thankfulness in their friendships. This is a great opportunity to begin new traditions and express appreciation and kindness to our closest friends. I will be gathering around a bonfire and barbeque at our home on October 2 with friends. Enjoy your fall time fellow Oklahomans. Remember to confirm events are open prior to heading out for your destinations to avoid disappointment.

A TASTE OF OKLAHOMA PERSIMMON COOKIES

I was happy to share some of my fall favorites with Leah as she left, like the pear sauce, persimmon cookies, rainbow colored farm fresh eggs, and home-grown herbs. The Oklahoma Corridor offers various fun family farm adventures during the fall. Parkhurst Ranch in Arcadia offers “Fireside Fridays” which includes bonfires with live music, s’mores, and moonlight mazes. The ranch offers pony rides, hay mazes, a petting zoo, a fairy castle, fall games, hayrides,

INGREDIENTS 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 1 cup Oklahoma honey, 2 farm fresh eggs, 1 cup wild Oklahoma persimmon pulp, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 2 cups flour, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon each of allspice, cinnamon, and pumpkin spice, 1 cup raisins or cranberries, 1 cup Oklahoma pecans. INSTRUCTIONS Combine dry and wet ingredients in separate bowls. Mix both bowls into one, then add in raisins and pecans. Stir lightly to mix in raisins and pecans. Bake at 325 degrees for approximately 15 minutes on a greased cookie sheet. This batter freezes well and so do the cookies. A bonus to making this recipe is the fall aroma these cookies will bring to your entire house. n
