Sound the Trumpets! Breakfast Is Served

For many years of life, the thought of opening a bed and breakfast establishment seemed appealing.

Decorating, cooking, baking, and setting a beautiful table are all things I love to do. However, I've definitely changed my mind about ever becoming an innkeeper. It would be way too much work and exceedingly time-consuming.

Instead, I host Sunday morning breakfasts very frequently. Regular followers have seen a few  posts on them. Well, here comes another one.

I'm still excited about my "new to me" blue and white English china that used to belong to my godmother. Since it's the Easter season,  Polish Easter eggs take center stage on the table. A multi-colored doily is underneath the glass dish in which they are displayed.

Yesterday, the guest breakfast  menu included omelets made with goat cheese, onions, and mushrooms;  rice and beans with sour cream (Latin American tradition);  crisp bacon; toasted Italian bread; grapes and orange slices with cinnamon sugar sprinkled on them; mango chunks; blueberries; orange juice; and coffee!

As a consumer, I heavily support local supermarkets. There are several and most weeks, I make stops at almost all of them, except when it comes to buying goat cheese (chevre) . It tends to be very expensive.

The only time it's served in omelets around here is when I've been able to take a trip to Trader Joe's in South Hadley, Massachusetts. There, one can get a pretty good sized log of Vermont goat cheese for less than $5! 

So, there you have it----my bed and breakfast offering (minus the bed).
