Smokey does not mess around. When he says the danger is extreme, believe him.
I debate with myself about the value of this blog at times. After all, I spend a lot of time thinking, writing, formatting … doing.
When I review the posts I’ve written over the year, though, and have to discard posts that I am really proud of in order to only show 15 posts, I know my effort is not in vain.
Here are my favorite posts from 2016. Please, enjoy!

These are the most viewed posts on MowryJournal.com in 2016. People from 150 countries visited this blog this year!
Six of these posts were not on this list last year, and 3 of the posts are new posts written this year. All of these posts have gone viral in one way or another, generating much interest beyond those directly in my normal, ever-increasing circle of readers.
There are 2 of Velda’s exceptional recipes here: try them, if you haven’t already. I promise you won’t regret it! It’s worthy of note that her Wild Mushroom Cobbler was this blog’s # 1 most read post for the last 2 years … until it was unseated by this year’s story about my new dust collection system. Apparently, there are more woodworkers wanting cleaner shops than cooks wanting to cook with mushrooms? If so, I very much regret it.
I focus on the recipe, of course, in the hopes that Mrs M will find time in her busy schedule to make that spectacular dish again in the near future. Maybe a little competitive spirit will inspire her.
My final observation is that I have no idea why my articles about the 18th, 36th, 2nd, 40th & 42nd Presidents are among the most read, nor why they are viewed more often than, say, my portrait of the 26th President. If nothing else, I’ve proven this year that I don’t understand politics that well.
But then, after this year, who can say they do?
In 2017, the portrait of the 44th President should be unveiled, which will then give me opportunity to update this series. Good: I already have one blog post planned for 2017!

Velda will be happy that her recipe for Wild Mushroom Cobbler is the most viewed post of the year. For that matter, a great many people will be happy after they follow her recipe. Now, if I could just get her to do so again….
These postings are about equally split between Velda’s recipes, my portraits series about the American President, my series on the National Parks, and then a few odds and ends from MrsMowry and myself.
If you haven’t read any of these before, please enjoy. After all, they are the most popular things published on MowryJournal.com this year!

Wild Mushroom Cobbler
Velda will love this post: her recipe for Wild Mushroom Cobbler is the post that was read the most over the last 12 months. That post has been re-pinned several times on Pinterest, and it’s gone viral from there.
And the world is eating better, if they’re following that recipe!
Most of these posts have gone viral, actually. “How To Be Unemployable” was picked up by a Dutch news service, for example. It’s a big world out there.
