An Innkeeper's Life at Casa Bella

Ron and I spent a busy day cleaning, baking and getting a jumpstart on our guests breakfasts!  All of this after a wonderful swim. 

The weather has been so spectacular here in Georgia that I hurry to get my work done so that I can spend a few hours by the pool - relaxing, swimming and playing with our Rottie, Zena.  Although-she's not a fan of swimming she catches "mean water".  I don't know how to better explain that except to say she loves to catch the water!   You know how it is when you have a playful pet! They make up their own games.
We planned a breakfast with early peaches coming in from South Carolina.  They will be made into a recipe I created twelve or so years ago when we operated as The Old Garden Inn.  The recipe is a Peach Breakfast Taco and it was one of our most popular first courses.  Crispy flour tortilla coated with a light dusting of cinnamon sugar-the filling is a cottage cheese and ricotta filling-served with fresh slices of peaches and two homemade syrups.  One syrup a homemade peach with dessert wine and the other our popular homemade black raspberry. 

We dipped the peaches into boiling water momentarily to remove the skins-next we sliced the peaches and  now have them resting in the fridge with a small amount of sugar.  It's important to us to keep our breakfast creations lightly sweetened to suit the early morning stomach.

Ron finished up his evening with a batch of his delicious chocolate chip cookies for our guests this evening.  They are driving in from Louisiana and we want to make sure they have a snack before bedtime-just in case they are too tired to go out for dinner.
