Stripping wallpaper, painting, hanging curtains. All in a days work. Our Victoria House Cottage is going to look fantastic when we’re done with phase 1.
Inn of the Year 2010
Happy New Year! We received exciting news to start the year, the Heartstone Inn has been named Inn of the Year for 2010 in the United States. Pamela Lanier’s Travel Guides www.Lanierbb.com has awarded us the honor. Our guests and their readers voted online and in print and we’re honored and excited with the news.
The 3rd annual Sweet Treats Cookie Tour was a big success. Thought I’d share one of the cookie recipes.
White Chip Island Cookies
1 2/3 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
2 cups white chocolate chips
1 cup coconut
3/4 cup macadamia nuts or walnuts, chopped
Preheat oven to 375 degrees
Combine flour, baking powder, soda and salt in a small bowl. Beat butter, sugars and vanilla extract in large mixer bowl until creamy. Beat in egg. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in morsels, coconut and walnuts. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 8 to 11 minutes until edges are lightly browned. Cool on baking sheet for 2 minutes and then transfer to wire rack to cool completely. Makes about 3 dozen cookies
It’s beginning to look alot like Christmas! Our home is decorated, the lights are all up and the Sweet Treats Cookie Tour is just around the corner. If you’d like to experience some holiday magic why not pay us a visit?
This coming Saturday, December 5 from 3pm to 8pm is the Christmas homes tour in the Historic District of Eureka Springs. It is one of my favorite events. There are 8 homes on the tour this year which will all be decorated for the holidays. Rooms are still available at the Heartstone Inn for this wonderful event.
