Everyone Shops At Walmart But This Idaho Dairy Sells Glass-Bottled Milk Straight From Its Own Cows

The milk here gets bottled in glass right on the farm, steps from the barn where the cows are milked. That trip from cow to bottle is about as short as dairy gets. I like how simple that sounds in a world of giant shopping carts. The same family has...

This Idaho Bakery Has Baked Giant Frosted Cinnamon Rolls From The Same Recipe For More Than 40 Years

The original cinnamon roll at this Idaho bakery stretches about six inches across. It’s less of a pastry and more of a commitment. The founder opened the bakery in 1984, and the recipe has outlasted mullets, shoulder pads, and a few owners. The shop has changed hands, but that roll clearly isn’t going anywhere.

Injury-riddled Idaho State women make history in blowout win over Westminster

POCATELLO — When you're starting a new season with what is basically an entirely new team, any early win is a good one. With that in mind, Friday was a very good night for the Idaho State women's basketball team, which beat Westminster University of Salt Lake City 79-30 before 798 fans at ICCU Court at Reed Gym. The home-opening win evened the Bengals' record at 1-1. The Griffins, a Division II program in the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference, considered the game an exhibition. With 11 new faces on the roster and injuries piling up, a solid performance like Friday's matters, and head coach Seton Sobolewski, in his 19th season, was happy with the effort. "I thought we played really hard. That was the goal," he said. "I thought defensively we did a good job of disrupting some things, giving us a lot of early transition baskets, especially in the first quarter. A lot of growth from the BYU game and the exhibition game. We're getting better." The Bengals roared out of the gate, shooting 57% in the first quarter, scoring 26 points and forcing eight turnovers, and they never looked back. ISU led 42-18 at halftime, then held Westminster

Commentary: ‘Philly Special’ sinks ISU in triple-overtime home loss to Montana State

POCATELLO — In a game with more twists and turns than a Six Flags roller coaster, Montana State survived a terrific effort from Idaho State and won 28-26 in triple overtime Saturday night at the ICCU Dome. Normally a recap starts in the first quarter, but the way the Bobcats pushed across the deciding points means this one has to begin at the end. As Montana State head coach Brent Vigen put it when all was said and done, “We found another way to win.” On MSU’s first snap of the third overtime, from the ISU 3-yard line, quarterback Justin Lamson pitched back to Dane Steele on what looked like an end-around to the right. But Steele quickly spotted tight end Rylan Schlepp breaking free near the front corner of the end zone and tossed it his way for the winning points. The play brought back memories of the famous “Philly Special” that helped the Eagles beat the Patriots in the Super Bowl, and it was reminiscent of a play Montana used down the stretch last year to beat the Bengals at the ICCU Dome. While that was the game-winner, big plays throughout kept the nearly 10,000 fans on edge.

Chicago made, Goombah’s offers a taste of home to friends new and old

SHELLEY — Started less than a month ago, Goombah’s welcomes friends new and old to try food from their hometown of Chicago. Timothy Miller, founder of Goombah’s, told EastIdahoNews.com that he had originally done events like Pioneer Days at Homestead Park, but then moved to start his own food stall.

The name of his food stall also nods to his childhood, when he recalled stories of his mother being a neighbor of Al Capone’s mom.
