Something new for breakfast

Tuesday, April 28th, 2009

Since winning the Inn-Credible Breakfast Cook-off,  I’ve continued exploring new vessels for breakfast.

Tortillas come in so many great flavors that they seem to be the perfect holder for some wonderful sauteed vegetables topped with either a poached egg or an herbed egg scramble.

After crisping in the over in the shaper, the tortilla pops out fluted.While these are flour tortillas, using the spinach or roasted red pepper tortillas adds great color and flavor.  I found these tortilla shapers from The Good Cook.

So for breakfast last week at the Inn, I placed the tortillas in the shapers and let them crisp for about 10 minutes in oven at 375 degrees. Cool for 10 minutes out of the oven but in the shapers. Then remove and set them on a rack.

Mystery in the meadow

Sunday, April 26th, 2009

The big question last week was “what is that pattern in the meadow?” First, we saw someone ride a mower to the middle of the meadow. Next he mowed a fat “T” through the grass. Then he left.

A few days later a truck shows up and I snapped the picture below. Any guesses?  We now have a runway for a small remote controlled plane and a helicopter! After getting over the surprise, it’s actually pretty awesome to watch these planes from the deck, as they make their landings and do dare devil tricks.

Hello from Linda!

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

When I attended the Select Registry Innkeepers Conference last November in Williamsburg, the keynote speaker cautioned everyone that this upcoming year’s theme would be CHANGE. I listened attentively and decided right then and there, that I would embrace CHANGE and see what happens.

So here I am with a blog, a facebook page for Inn at Riverbend, a twitter account and Constant Contact for sending out great new stuff to our Inn at Riverbend fans. Plus newly created wine tours, the Jackson and Me photo contest and more.

Stay tuned. I’m excited to share What’s Cookin’ at Inn at Riverbend!
