Still Waters currently has two pseudo chefs in residence.
(This is not them. This is the happy Inn keeper and a favorite guest.)
The kitchen staff had an opportunity yesterday to create a unique celebration for a very special birthday girl.
Our pasty chef (who has the very nice new Kitchen Aid Mixer) whipped up THE MOST WONDERFUL, light, moist birthday cake piled high with the creamiest butter cream frosting ever.
Our chef in training then added the final decorations.
Then added some more. ................................And then just a little more.
The candles were arranged just so.................
...........................................so the birthday girl would be able to blow them out with one breath.
The pastry chef checks out the final product and obviously approves of the efforts of this chef in training.
Since this Birthday celebrant requested pasta................................. our pseudo chefs decided to chop and slice and dice in the very best Natalie Dupree fashion............................ and create a Pasta Bar.
Each guest filled their pasta dish with the veggies of their choice............
.......which the pseudo chefs sauteed.................. cooked and added the protein of choice................
.............then the chosen sauce............ and the chosen pasta. And finally topped with a hand full of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
The guest approved........................... the birthday girl said ummmmm.....TASTY!!!
Some guests tried several variations. Especially one guest who happened not to be pictured.
The winning combination may have been roasted red pepper sauce over bow tie pasta with mushrooms, caramelized onion,bacon, shrimp and scallops ................... or was it the chicken and bacon Alfredo fettuccine?
Next time maybe we'll have plenty of fresh herbs to add to the mix.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LESLIE!!! We all love you and are very happy you were born.
WHAT FUN !!!!!
