As
in the past, we provided lodging for the blogger party attendees who
traveled too far for it to be a one day event and in this case three couples
stayed with us and one stayed with Bev’s sister, Pat.
For
this trip the Hofer’s had asked, via email, if they could provide breakfast for
the overnight guests. Once before they
had stayed two nights and laid out a delicious gourmet dinner so I nearly injured my two
typing fingers trying to reply so quickly with a resounding yes to the
breakfast offer.
The
menu was:
Mimosa’s
of orange juice and Prosesca
Triple Cinnamon Scones (provided by Penny the scone queen)
Oven
fried bacon, imported from Nueskes in Wittenberg, WI
Corn
cakes (a Hofer family tradition)
Blueberry
maple syrup and homemade butter (yep, they made it on site)
Scrambled
eggs with mushrooms
Mixed
fruit of strawberries and blue berries
Lots
of coffee
This
is the assembly line plating operation and my plate.
Wow what a way to wrap up our weekend events - Penny’s
scones were a delicious beginning and as always, the Hofer boys put on an
outstanding meal. I wish they would all come and do it every month or two. Not only was the meal great but the cleanup
crew had the kitchen in very good shape as well. Thanks all for a wonderful morning.
Everyone
got on the road around noon and I’m glad we didn’t have to drive anywhere – Bev
took a nap and I sat comatose in my chair for a while – awake but still
comatose.

Have
a great day and thanks for stopping by Almost Heaven South.
