A home with a view

This week on “Home and Away” host Cathy Hamilton goes inside a classic A-frame home that affords great views of the winter wonderland outside. Although it’s situated in the center of Lawrence, it looks like it could be perched on a Colorado mountain side.

A new show airs at 6:30 p.m. Monday each week on Sunflower Broadband Channel 6 and repeats at 9 p.m. and 10:30 p.m. The show is also broadcast at 9 p.m. Tuesday-Friday and 9 a.m. Sunday.

It’s a real smoothie

Children will be infatuated with 2002 All-America Selections Orange Smoothie pumpkins. At 5 to 8 pounds, their size is perfect for young hands. Orange Smoothie pumpkins mature early, about 90 days from sowing.

Easy to grow from seed or started plants, Orange Smoothie is an all-around great pumpkin for carving, painting Halloween faces and decorating. The meat is sweet for homemade pumpkin pie.
