This morning John and I awoke at 4:10 am. That might seem early to you but we couldn’t sleep anyway. :)
We had a show to do!
Having checked into Amanda’s Bequest yesterday, TV 9 & 10 of Cadillac was here to do their morning broadcast for three hours culminating with breakfast. This would feature both Bygone Basics and Amanda’s Bequest Bed & Breakfast. An awesome opportunity to tell people what fun they could have here. In three hours time, we made soap (the old-fashioned way with lye and fats), made pumpkin pie (from a real pumpkin…no cans of anything), and pulled off a huge breakfast of honeyed-nut blueberries, homemade toast and preserves with home churned butter, cherry scones, lime and yogurt grapefruit juice, sausage gravy, buttermilk biscuits, sourdough pancakes with applesauce filling, and poached eggs on asparagus topped with shaved Parmesan. …just typing that makes me hungry all over again.
Some of Valeries’s pies and preserved goods.
It was SO MUCH FUN! (but challenging to do on camera!)
