    I'm new here - please share your wisdom!

    First off, welcome to the forum! Don't let JB scare you off, she doesn't bite hard She's really our 'mom', just interested in everyone's welfare and she dispenses tough love to everyone. I'm happy to have been toughened up by her. I viewed your site on Safari and didn't seem to have any...

    So Busy I Forgot To Have A Life...

    A pedicure! Haven't had one professionally done since....last October when I visited my girls and I did a Girls Day at the Spa!! I've taken a food paddle to my feet once in awhile and painted my toenails twice this past summer and that's it. I've finally ordered a foot bath which should be here...

    Number of choices for hot breakfast in the morning?

    I'm with the majority--sweet/savoury rotation. After I've served them their freshly baked item along with their fresh fruit, I announce the hot entree of the morning along with planned sides. Then I'll ask each table (only have four) if they'd like toast on the side, if it's savoury. At that...

    Dear Mother Murphy

    Ugh. Reminds me of the time DH got it into his brain that he would fry capelin* in my nicely seasoned cast iron pan right after check out time. Pee U ( at least that's what I thought) I could smell it all day, right into check in time. First guest comes in and asks " are you cooking capelin?"...

    X Marks The Problem....

    Don't let the guest suck your life out of you! Hold on out there, help is just a prayer away. (Hint- Don't pray for patience, check James 1) Praying for you! Also remember we are just an email, text, or post away and understand what you are going through. Don't let life get you down just...

    What would you suggest?

    Listen to the voices of experience. I am busier than I ever expected I would be after only three seasons under my belt. I don't know where we'd be if I didn't listen to all these wonderful, experienced people here. Yes, I still take phone calls, but it's fantastic to wake up in the morning and...

    Used Tissues

    As soon as I hear someone sniffling in the dining room, I walk into the common area, pick up the box of Kleenex that is about 8 feet away, place it on their table and I say, " Here, this will be softer on your nose than my napkins" Puleeze!

Next year, I've raised my prices but will give a discount if you book through my site and stay two nights or more (I use OTAs, shoot me) Hoping that may sway the bookers who use the OTAs for reward points by saving them cash on the bottom line. Discount will cost...

    Someone said that the vodka and water spray took odour off of clothes. Try that? Or drink it

    Berries

    I've been picking our wild blueberries at the side of the house whenever I have a chance. Been using fresh for breakfasts and freezing bags too. Plus, I have an admirer (older gentleman friend) that I've been giving my extra baking to that has been picking and giving them to me to freeze and get...

    What's the weirdest (or worst) thing you've made yourself?

    Generic made me think of this one. Okay, sometimes we are so run off our feet that we are desperate to eat, anything. If that happens to you, what have you had? Or, what will you eat if there's no time to make real food--like the stuff we make our guests? I'm bad. When I'm hungry and I don't...

    Trying something new this winter - construction-free!

    Our new dryer died last night and I have to wait for the warranty repair so DH went out and bought a second one-which we were going to do in the spring. So.....that just stepped up everything. Now need to reconfigure the laundry room, which means everything now gets bumped up. Minor kitchen reno...
