Bake a Big Batch of Brownies

By Olivia Fowler
For the Courier
ofowler@thepccourier.com

I know there are some who really don’t like brownies, and I understand and don’t judge. We all have a different set of taste buds and can’t control our genetic makeup.

But for those of you who do like chocolate — and I am among those — you may like some of these variations on the classic brownie recipe.

None of these recipes are rocket science, fortunately, but I — and my taste buds — think they’re good. We all hope your taste buds agree.
Enjoy them as a treat or an everyday snack.

EASLEY — Easley’s new police chief will be sworn in during the April 12 Easley City Council meeting.

By Ron Barnett

LIBERTY —
It was a typical Saturday morning in downtown Liberty, and 12-year-old Jerry Nalley was at home watching TV with his younger sister.
“Probably some Western,” he recollected.

All at once they heard a great “commotion” — and it wasn’t coming from the cowboys and Indians on their black-and-white television set.
“It was just a tremendous noise,” he said. “We didn’t know what in the world it was.”

This Saturday morning — Feb. 27, 1960 — turned out to be anything but typical.

Jerry ran out the back door just in time to see one of the vertical stabilizers of a C-119 airplane — a

Central officials considering cluster zoning to save town’s greenspace

goliver@upstatetoday.com

CENTRAL — The town of Central has heard no news regarding plans to build 100 homes on 48 acres on Lawton Road, and town administrator Phillip Mishoe said he thinks he knows why.

“My thinking is that the developer wants to see how the cluster zones are going to play out, and he may be looking at the cluster zones because it saves a lot of greenspace — untouched greenspace — and that may be a better option than the standard R-12,
