Happy Father's Day


In honor of all the men visiting Bloomsbury Inn for this wonderful holiday weekend, credited to Sonora Smart Dodd, we served a hearty breakfast. A feast fit for a King:
- Bloomsbury Blend Coffee, served piping hot in our Deneen Pottery Mugs
- Gingered Mango Twist, a fresh and sparkling juice
(the entire breakfast service is presented on antique Milk Glass -- the first piece we ever owned was given by Katherine's maternal Grandmother Sally Rose Stites Chisam -- pure white dishes so china colors can not interfere with the beauty of the food)
- Bloomsbury Biscuits, big/fluffy biscuits baked right in Grandmother's iron skillet
- Bloomsbury Breakfast Strata, country ham and sausage, new potatoes, Vidalia onions, green/red/yellow peppers, fresh herbs, grated cheese and creamed eggs baked in a fresh puff pastry -- we use farm-fresh eggs from Wil-Moore Farms
- Zucchini Coins, it is squash season in South Carolina
- Fresh Garden Salsa, featuring garden fresh tomato and banana peppers
- Chive-laced Sour Cream
Every plate was empty -- most everyone had two biscuits! Breakfast served, recipes available at http://www.bloomsburyinn.com, and we extend a Father's Day Salute to all the wonderful Fathers, Grandfathers, Brothers, Nephews of the world. HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
