Rosemary Posted May 10, 2012 Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 @Rosemary if your South African Husky Troopers do steal the prize from under their noses, that will be fine because we have always wanted to visit Africa:plane: and play with all the animals:rofl:. And I was told to let you know that if you do, the pastry chef will make that Torte for you in your kitchen;) Aah, but you see, the pasrty chef and his chief taster are the Prize, the Torte we want to smuggle in is the rasberry on the cake, so to speak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SA DA KA Posted May 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) Sorry we haven't posted in a few days, we are getting ready for Johnson State College Graduation on Saturday so I am up to my eye balls in Graduation cakes and other pastry items. Our Cafe has been very busy due to the influx of people in the Village coming to watch their Students graduate. Enjoy these pastries. TRIVIA QUESTION: SHE GOT "BOOTED" OUT OF JOHNSON STATE COLLEGE IN VERMONT TAKING ART CLASSES, SHE WAS BORN IN BROOKLYN NEW YORK IN 1953, SPENT 2 WEEKS IN THE WOODS IN CANADA WITH HER DOG SPARKLE TO FIND HERSELF. (WHO AM I?) HER MUSIC WAS VERY WELL KNOWN IN THE EARLY 1980'S. 1) Large Cinnamon Breakfast Buns 2) Apple, Raspberry and Black Cherry Kringles (a Swedish style pastry) Edited May 11, 2012 by SA DA KA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutsibe Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 Well, we do have sleeping quarters in the bakery when we do long holiday baking. It is fully furnished. It is like the Scandinavian style bedroom loft. When should we expect your arrival? Don't tempt me! My current job will run out (it's temporary) in about 4 weeks... Everything looks so lovely, and in spite of the fact that I don't really like a lot of terribly sweet things, I think I could find way too much that I liked!

Biggles Posted May 11, 2012 Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 [MENTION=6713]SA DA KA[/MENTION] the answer to your famous person is Cyndi Lauper. She is an amazing singer with perfect pitch and a unique voice. Perfect pitch in singers in very unusual especially nowadays with autotune. My younger son uses autotune when producing bands and what he can do to the sound is remarkable. I am sure if I went into your cafe every day there would be something new to try. I would have so much difficulty in deciding what to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SA DA KA Posted May 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2012 (edited) @Biggles Very impressed Gill, how did you get your answer is what we want to know and did your son play a part in it Yes, she went to school here, and was very intoxicated most of the time just like her song, "girls just want to have fun" and she did. Most of this town found her very amusing. She was lots of fun and you are absolutely right, she has a very unique voice. Love her music. For playing and winning this trivia question. Should you ever come to Vermont, you have carte blanche at anything in the cafe and we do keep our word Edited May 11, 2012 by SA DA KA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[MENTION=5918]Molly's_Dad[/MENTION] well guess 4 years of French didn't pay off. Should have stuck to my first language, German. It was a battle just to learn English.

Biggles Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 My younger son is a talented musician as well as finishing off a degree in music production so knows lots of information/trivia about different genres of music. Also for me it's an age thing and mind full of useless, or sometimes useful, information! Let's just say I remember Cyndi and her colourful hair when she first hit the music scene and her originality. Trivia fact she can sing in four different octaves, or so I'm told. My eldest son when he was younger used to get he mixed up with Madonna. Cyndi has the better voice. You may regret you're offer. Book me into your B&B when you open it and I'll be there.

SA DA KA Posted May 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Just picked Crimson Rhubarb from the Rhubarb patch. Not sure what I will be making with it, could be Strawberry Rhubarb pie with a streusel topping or Strawberry Rhubarb crumble bars. Some photo's of the Rhubarb patch and next to them are the thornless raspberries. We can't wait for those to come and make pastries from them.

Some photo's of the Rhubarb patch and next to them are the thornless raspberries. We can't wait for those to come and make pastries from them. Mmmm, sounds wonderful! I tend to make rhubarb slush with mine..... 8 cups rhubarb 8 cups water 3 cups sugar Boil until rhubarb is done. Strain if you don't want the pulp in the beverage when complete. Add: 1/2 cup lemon juice or lemonade powder (I use strawberry lemonade powder) 1-3 oz. box strawberry jello Vodka (lots!) Stir while freezing. Fill glass with frozen mixture and add just a bit of 7-Up or Squirt. MMMMMMM! Nothings better while sitting on the deck on a hot day!

I've been trying to find regular just Rhubarb pie for Gloria-she's never had it before but likes sweet sour things, so I think thats the ticket.
