10 Years Ago Presley Walters was the image of precocious toddlerhood - able to go on stage by herself, waving to the crowd on cue, dressed in a little red, white and blue summer suit. The troubles came when last year’s toddler placed Presley’s crown on her head and the tiara’s side combs pulled her delicate 2-year-olds hairs.

She was named Kosciusko County Toddler during the contest. 25 Years Ago This Mexican recipe for Tortilla Espanola (Spanish Omelet) was submitted by Lynn Estep, Bourbon for the Spotlight Recipe Contest.
