A Davenport School Board member got a surprise during Monday night's meeting.

The school board announced Sudlow Middle School's cafeteria will be named after Bruce Potts.
Potts was the school's principal until he retired and was later elected to the school board. Potts said he had no idea about it before the announcement.

Construction is underway on a new building to house Sudlow Middle School and the cafeteria named after Potts.

The apple variety you don't want to miss out on before you pick up any Honeycrisp apples this season. Apple season has begun. Early season apple varieties are starting to come off the trees. While many people wait for the start of Honeycrisp, there are several great apples that you should be looking out for first. I want to share about one of those apples today - Zestar!

Ritz Party Sandwiches Bring Back the Kind of Ham-and-Swiss Snack Tray Everyone Crowds Around

Buttery Ritz crackers layered with savory ham and melty Swiss cheese turn into the kind of baked party bite that feels nostalgic, salty, and incredibly easy to love. As they warm, the cheese softens into gooey little layers, the ham stays tender and savory, and the crackers keep enough crispness to make every bite satisfying. A buttery seasoning brushed over the top adds even more richness, giving the whole tray that warm, savory aroma that makes people start picking at it before the rest of the appetizers are ready. They are simple, bite-sized, and exactly the kind of old-school party food that earns repeat appearances because everyone already knows what to do with them.

S.O.S. on a Shingle Is the Old-School Creamed Beef Breakfast That Still Knows How to Fill a Plate

Creamed beef spooned over crisp toast has the kind of no-frills comfort that feels pulled from a military mess hall, diner counter, or family kitchen where breakfast needed to be filling and cheap. The sauce turns thick, creamy, and peppery, coating every savory bite of beef before spilling over hot toast and soaking into the crunchy edges. It is rich, salty, and deeply practical, with that unmistakable stick-to-your-ribs quality that made simple meals like this worth remembering. There is nothing fancy about it, and that is exactly the appeal—just hot, creamy comfort served over something crisp enough to catch every drop.

Hanky Panky Bites Are the Old-School Party Appetizer That Still Disappears Before Anything Fancy

Savory sausage, seasoned beef, and melty cheese piled onto crisp little pieces of bread come together in the kind of retro appetizer that proves some party foods never needed an update. The meat stays juicy and richly seasoned, the cheese melts into every bite, and the bread underneath gets golden and crisp enough to hold all that savory goodness without falling apart. They are warm, cheesy, a little messy, and exactly the sort of snack that feels straight out of a family gathering, holiday party, or game-day spread from years ago. One tray has a way of disappearing while everyone is still pretending they are only sampling.
