Maple Monday!

Let's get the week started, shall we?!

Potatoes. One of our meal favorites. Mashed, baked, or roasted, there are so many ways to enjoy potatoes. While browsing for a recipe, I stumbled upon one that is sure to be added to your meals. Hot Maple Buttered Smashed Potatoes with Garlic Mayo! How can you go wrong with this recipe?! And you can bet we will be having this with one of our dinners this week.

Looking for a gift for that special someone? Housewarming? Birthday? Anniversary? Just because? No matter the occasion, Vermont maple syrup is the perfect way to show you care. Our wood-fired, award-winning maple syrup is available in a size that fits all of your needs. And don't forget the maple cream (our favorite) and our cousin-to-cousin, coast-to-coast maple almonds. Visit our website. You shop, we ship.

Gypsy Reel will be performing on Friday night, Sept 27 at 7:30 pm at the Tinmouth Old Firehouse.

Gypsy Reel plays high energy stirring music rooted in the Celtic tradition but garnered from the whole world. Their music is an exciting synthesis of world rhythms and influences from 3 continents. Their newest studio album, 'Red Red Rose' features music from the tradition and original material from the band.

Their tours of the States, Canada and the UK have gained them rave reviews – 'Ended the set in a frenzy', 'Gypsy Reel rocks stage at Charleston Spoleto Festival' 'Fine sparky playing – bags of originality'.

The line-up includes hot banjoist Claudine Langille, formerly of 'Touchstone', the sensational Irish/American fusion band that won critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic, Graham Parker – eclectic fiddler extraordinaire, Camille Parker who has captivated the hearts of audiences across the globe with her mandolin & bodhran and her singing, and joining them for this special show is Orla McGovern from County Mayo, Ireland. She lives in the heart of the Irish tradition in Doolin playing piano and whistle in the finest Irish sessions. We will also see if she will grace the concert with a song in Gaelic.

Suggested donation is $15-20 (90% goes to the musicians, 10% to care of the Old Firehouse).

Refreshments and coffee will be served.

The Old Firehouse is in beautiful "downtown" Tinmouth - nestled between the Town Office and the Firehouse near the corner of Mountain View Road and Route 140. You can park near the Town Office or across the road, up near the church green.

We hope to see you there!
