Fodor’s Names 10 Best Small Towns in America

  [caption id="attachment_1130" align="alignright" width="300"] Juniper Inn, Fish Creek.[/caption] This week Fodor’s unveiled its list of 10 Best Small Towns in America, saying “in a time when ‘authentic’ is a travel buzzword, these hamlets are attracting visitors with an often unexpected and surprisingly sophisticated array of independent and locally-minded offerings.” Door County was one of the 10, with a mention of Juniper Inn B&B in Fish Creek. Fodor’s lauds the peninsula for its beaches, boutique shops, working artist studios and, of course, fish boils and locally grown cherries.  We’ll add B&Bs to that list too!  

Cooking Up Another Wisconsin B&B Cookbook

The Wisconsin Bed & Breakfast Association has put out seven editions of its cookbook and each time it has sold out.  So thought you’d be pleased to know we’re whipping up edition No. 8.  This one will have a real emphasis on signature recipes – the ones guests ask for all the time.  And it will cover everything from soup to nuts or, more accurately, breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert.  Right now it’s looking like we’ll have our new cookbook in time for holiday giving and entertaining.  Until then, enjoy the top vote getters in our statewide recipe cook-offs from years past.  [caption id="attachment_529" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Port Washington Inn's "Door County Cherry Bread Pudding" took first place honors at the Wisconsin Bed & Breakfast Association's 2010 cookoff. Rita, owner-innkeeper-baker at the Port Washington Inn says: "We put the emphasis on quality ingredients and from scratch preparation… no shortcuts… you’ll taste the difference!" The inn's full breakfast is served buffet style so that guests can pick and choose and go back for more if they desire."]Port Washington Inn, winner 2010 Wisconsin Bed & Breakfast cook-off, Door County Cherry bread pudding, home baked breads from scratch[/caption]
