I read fiction for a variety of reasons: compelling characters, fascinating settings, appealing hypotheses, historical information, a sense of community, spiritual nourishment, encouragement, distraction, insight, entertainment.
Oh, yes, and the food. My favorite stories often feature teatime or mealtime conversations. It’s no wonder then that my Sinclair Sisters of Cripple Creek novels include dialogue centered around a supper table or a tray of goodies in a parlor.
Two Brides Too Many, Too Rich for a Bride, The Bride Wore Blue, and Twice a Bride
I thought it’d be fun to celebrate the completion of the Sinclair Sisters of Cripple Creek Series with three recipes from two of our beloved Cripple Creek women: Miss Hattie, the proprietor of Miss Hattie’s Boardinghouse, and Nell Sinclair Archer.
Nell Sinclair Archer’s Peanut Cabbage Salad
Miss Hattie’s Vanilla Pound Cake with Berry Sauce
As Julia Child would’ve said, “Bon Appétit!”
Which recipe would you choose to make first?
