Fall Means Apple Pies!

Wednesday, August 26th, 2009

There are many things we love about fall at the Lake House and we especially look forward to serving Papa Ray’s Apple Pies!  Handmade using only their own apples with the best crust ever!  Allenholm Farm is located in South Hero.  They have a small farm store featuring both their own and other great VT products as well as a small animal petting paddock.  Maple Creamies too!  Stop in and check them out when you are visting the Champlain Islands.

Raspberry Mojitos in August

Bev & Sheryl going above and beyond the call of duty; being forced to test the first batch of a specially requested raspberry mojito for a wedding in early August. Fortunately, Russ (in background) & Sue were still hard at work!  Garnished with fresh raspberries & mint, they proved to be delicious & just gorgeous to boot!

Unless otherwise requested, we always serve Grafton Village Cheese Cheddar & Maple Smoked Cheddar on our VT Cheese Boards.  Their products are made in small batches using fresh from the farm high butterfat & protein laden VT Jersey milk; free of hormones, antibiotics & preservatives.  The way all VT cheddars used to, and should still,  be made!
