COOK OF THE WEEK - RITA SIME

Submitted by admin on Wed, 01/15/2014 - 7:38am

Many of you reading this were probably children that attended Rita Sime’s Daycare, which she ran for 25 years. She told me that some of those “children” still stay in contact with her now that they are adults. Rita Sime was married to her husband, Eric for 40 years before he passed away in 2009. Many will remember him for his insurance work. In fact when they met both were working for the same insurance company in Cedar Rapids. Rita grew up in Cedar Rapids and graduated from Washington High School there. After being married they lived in Kansas City and moved back to the Humboldt area in 1974. Eric again worked with Insurance and Rita started her daycare. She did daycare for 25 years, retiring in 2000. When one of these children had a birthday she always made them cupcakes and many of them always chose the same recipe, which she shared with us today. Rita is the mother of two children. Vicky (Carl) Livingston live in Ankeny, where Vicky is a substitute teacher.
