Recipe
for a Country Inn by Donna Leahy
It's a common fantasy - to chuck the office grind and become the
owner of a country inn. We'd greet our guests with a warm smile,
leisurely chat with them for hours, and then whip up a special
dinner.
Reality is not quite the same as our
fantasies, as innkeeper Donna Leahy describes in her wonderful
book. It's a lot of time-consuming, hard work. But it can also be
satisfying work. Over the past 13 years that Leahy has lived this
lifestyle, she and her husband (whose beautiful photos illustrate
this book) have created an award-winning inn and restaurant. Leahy
shares her experiences with building the inn, gives us a feel for
the lifestyle of inn keeping and provides a sensational collection
of recipes that reflect the finest of inn cuisine.
