The Moss House B&B’s Hot Cross Buns

Great Taste and Fond Memories. 

Hot Cross Buns were always my Granddad's' favorite at Easter time. I remember him singing a little ditty from England, where he was born, and it lingers somewhere in the back of my brain.

My recipe has that yeast-risen sweet dough that cannot be beat.

After Dark, Our Garden Almost Glows

I love our gardens at night.

The Moss House gardens take on a different feeling after dark. My newbie attempt at night photography (yes I still have much to learn) will give you a preview.

The colors after dusk are so lush – I got caught  up in it. The oranges practically glow, don't you think?

Turtles and More Along the River Walk

One of my favorite things to do is to walk along the river walk and breeze along the Washington boardwalk. The river is just a short walk from the Bed & Breakfast and our guests love it.

Turtles of every size take the time to sun themselves!  Sometimes a turtle is balanced precariously on a lily pad. I'm still not sure how they do that.
