Come down to the dining room as early as 6:30 am for a cup of freshly brewed coffee or a cup of tea. You can join others for conversation or have a bit of quiet time in the parlor or on our wrap-around front porch with the daily newspaper. Those who have to leave before 7:00 am can enjoy a Continental style breakfast. A delicious full breakfast is served after 7:00 am.

Some of Our Favorite Recipes
Harvest Apple Cake
(a favorite of our children just as it is for birthdays!)
2 cups sugar
2 cups chopped apples (Granny Smith or other tart apple
Place sugar and apples in bowl and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
Add the following:
2 eggs, beaten
1 c. oil
1 t. vanilla
2 cups flour, plain
2 t. baking soda
2 T. cinnamon - it's a lot but that's what makes it so good)
1 cup chopped nuts
Spread into greased 9x13 inch pan and bake 1 hour at 350 degrees. Top with Cream Cheese Frosting, or dust with powdered sugar, or eat plain.
Cream Cheese Frosting
3 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 t. vanilla
Mix together until smooth.
Apple Cranberry Crisp
(from Southernfood.about.com)
While this is listed as a dessert, we've served this as a starter fruit course with whipped cream on top. This recipe also adapts very well to using Splenda and Splenda brown sugar replacement. If using sweeter apples, reduce sugar to taste.
3 cups chopped tart apples
2 cups raw cranberries (or a couple hand-fulls dried cranberries)
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup quick oats
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
1 stick of butter or margarine, cut into small pieces (4 oz)
Spread apples and cranberries in bottom of a buttered 2-quart casserole dish, or 5 - 8 oz ramekins. Spread sugars, oats and nuts over apples and cranberries. Top evenly with butter pieces. Bake for 55-65 minutes at 325 degrees.
