Hi!

My name is Cheryl Sherry and I am the new Innkeeper for the Coffee Street Inn. I am very excited to be a part of the staff here in Lanesboro and look forward to meeting all of our Guests soon. This weekend we are celebrating Buffalo Bill Days here in Lanesboro and the weather couldn't be better!

While all of our guest are special I just wanted to mention a very special couple celebrating their anniversary with us. We love special occasions here at the Inn and can accommodate most small events and special occasions. Ask me about small group meetings, and Hunting, Bachelorette, Quilting, Scrapbooking and Reunion events we can help you with.

I wanted to share a recipe from my families native home Cape Breton, Nova Scotia. I grew up on these yummy little tarts but always thought the name was funny! They are really easy to make and keep well frozen too.

Cape Breton Pork Pies

1 Cup butter
4 Tablespoons icing sugar
2 Cups white flour
Pinch of nutmeg
Mix well and press into tiny muffin tins.
Bake at 450 for 10 minutes. Cool

On the stovetop cook the following until smooth:

2 Cups chopped dates
1 1/2 Cup brown sugar
1 Cup water
1 Teaspoon lemon juice
1 Teaspoon white vinegar

Add a spoonful of the date mixture onto each shell and top with Maple flavour butter icing.
