After 5 months of non-stop travel, we are back in sunny Yuma, Arizona, home to the Yuma Crossing National Heritage Area. Besides catching up on the great amount of production we have to do, we are excited to continue exploring this vibrant historic area, and look forward to attending some of the city's shows and festivals.

In this edition, etiquette expert Dawn Bryan provides her Business Gift-Giving Tips, author Steve W. Kohlhagen discusses the death of Kit Carson's Marshal, Johnny Tan talks about Celebrating the Holidays and shares his Oyster Dressing recipe, Maralyn Hill 'The Epicurean Explorer' returns from Indianapolis with St. Elmo's Steak House's famous Smoked Gouda Mac & Cheese recipe, and we give you a glimpse of Yuma's winter and spring line-up of events!

Have a Great Week!
