The very wet, windy and cold night did not dampen or keep our local Historical Society members from visiting the Prairie Splendor Farm B & B. Twenty attended their annual informational event. Coffee, hot mulled apple cider(purchased from Lapacek's Orchard) and cookies were provided. I was introduced to new people and renewed old relationships, once again, priceless. After a brief talk of the history of the renovation and the beginning of the B & B, the group divided and I gave tours of the bedrooms. The B & B is a working museum so the remaining members were encouraged to explore the first floor "treasures". I enjoy giving tours and find that it is a good way to spread the word that I am here.
On October 19 the Poynette Library's Book Club will be discussing Bill Bryson's book, The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid. Members will be bringing a dish to pass for a pot luck and a sample of 50's memorabilia. I am looking forward to that evening.
I have many more great fall recipes to share. Now that I am retired, I have time to cook and will publish a few next week.
If you would like more 50's trivia, send me your comments on the bottom of this post.
