Ski Lodge


Our home is being used as a ski lodge this weekend! And I couldn't be happier! Colette has a bunch of girlfriends up from Boston for a weekend of skiing, and they're using our house as a base. 

I used to ski. But I gave that up about a decade ago when fear of careening out of control and damaging myself or an unsuspecting innocent on the slope overshadowed any fun I was having. The last few years I've been thinking that, although I'm not out on the slopes, I would love to be the ski lodge mom...making warm, comfort food to welcome back the weary ski crew. So this was the menu for the hungry crowd:

- Friday Night -

Chicken Tortilla Soup
Baked Potato Soup
green salads
baguette and whole grain ciabatta

steaming cups of hot chocolate for a late night treat

- Saturday Morning -

Belgian waffles topped with fresh fruit and chocolate ganache or maple syrup
fruitwood smoked bacon
orange juice
coffee
tea

- Saturday Night - 

chicken pot pie
green salads

chocolate chip bar cookies

- Sunday Morning -

Greek yogurts
Icelandic Skyr
fresh fruit
made-to-order omelettes
English muffins
orange juice
coffee
tea
