ANN BAILEY: Pie is no piece of cake
Along with my regular day-to-day duties at Good Samaritan Society — Larimore, I help with a variety of events that the center holds.

ANN BAILEY: Bonding with board games
In the era that I grew up, one without multiple television channels, iPods or Facebook, my family and I played board games when we were stormed in. Though my children have a variety of electronic devices and social media at their fingertips, they still enjoy carrying on the tradition.

Though the landscape outside looks more like it should be Christmas, Easter Sunday is just a few days away. Cooking a big dinner on Easter is a tradition in our family. We either go to my in-laws or host. This year, it’s our turn to cook, and we expect to have about 15 to 20 family members.

ANN BAILEY: After a foggy night, a photogenic day
I wanted to capture the winter wonderland not only in our farmyard, but out in the countryside surrounding it, so I took the camera with me when I went to my mom’s house to feed the chickens.

ANN BAILEY: Teaching moments at a mall
I am not a recreational shopper. When I go to a store I have a list of items I need, and my goal is to buy them and then get out as quickly as possible.
