<b>Muscongus Bay Lobster Pound</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">This past fall I spent time with a guest prior to arrival addressing his questions about "fine dining" in the area. Our guest was planning this trip for five couples traveling together. I booked reservations at a few great area restaurants and then I recommended a visit to a lobster pound. I said that in my opinion dining at a lobster pound is what I call "fine dining" along the midcoast. It was early October so I suggested mid afternoon. There are a number of really great lobster pounds nearby: <a href="http://www.watermansbeachlobster.com/" target="_blank">Waterman's Beach Lobster</a>, <a href="http://www.millerslobster.com/" target="_blank">Millers Lobster</a>, <a href="https://mcloonslobster.com/" target="_blank">McLoons Lobster pound</a>, <a href="http://mainefreshlobster.com/" target="_blank">Muscongus Bay Lobster Pound</a>, <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/shaws-fish-and-lobster-wharf-new-harbor-2" target="_blank">Shaws Lobster Pound</a>. </span><span style="font-size: large;"> After some discussions, I suggested McLoons Lobster Pound as it was near by. We provided the group with a small cooler bag for their wine, that included a tablecloth, glasses, silverware and bottle opener. McLoons graciously set aside a table since they were a large party. They had a wonderful time, lobster right out of the bay, ocean views and sunset. They agreed with me that a visit to Maine should definitely include a trip for "fine dining" at a lobster pound.</span><br />

Karen and I were in a meeting the other day downtown discussing how much there was to do in Camden when it occurred to me that I give guests this document and thought it would be a good idea to share it here to show how many adventures guests could have in Camden staying with us.<br />

As a very good friend mentioned to me you need to be "hearty" to live in Maine in the winter. We don't mind being called "wimpy". As many might know we spend our off season time with our precious family in a warmer climate. Our lifestyle is amazing because we spend quality time with our guests in the spring, summer and autumn and quality time in the slow season with our sons and our amazing grandchildren. <br />

This year we discussed some other breakfast options for our guests that would include a healthy, gluten free alternative. So now we will be offering fresh, organic fruit/green smoothies as an alternative to our standard homemade breakfast or for those with a early morning departure a smoothie to-go.<br />

As many know we love decorating the inn with pumpkins everywhere. Karen enjoys driving to <a href="http://www.bethsfarmmarket.com/" target="_blank">Beth's</a> farm in Warren, Maine at least once or twice a week. A majority of our produce is purchased here. From the interesting pumpkin varieties to heirloom apples and fall berries, in our opinion it just doesn't get any better. <br />

Cool nights and warm sunny days have cooperated with mother nature this year and the colors have been fantastic. We have been burning wood in the library fireplace each evening for our guests and of course they have enjoyed the fireplace in the parlor with interesting conversation and also late night quiet times to read a book. <br />
<br />
We sincerely hope that as the the seasons change you have time to spend with your family and loved ones.<br />

Besides the big news that we have the "perfect" Golden Retriever puppy, who can do no wrong, not really but we love to live in denial. She is certainly going to make the B&B exciting this season. Madie is really adorable, easy to love and she is so excited to greet our guests.<br />

So what else is new at <a href="http://www.timbercliffecottage.com/" style="background-color: #b8ac8f; color: #993322; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, FreeSerif, serif; font-size: 19px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 28px; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">Timbercliffe Cottage B&B</a>? We just finished deep cleaning the entire inn, you know painting, scrubbing floors, washing curtains, driving to the dry cleaners etc. The latest update is the newly sanded and varnished antique fir floor in the Chauncey Keep Chamber. This room is beautiful on its own but now with a fresh coat of paint and the beautiful floor it's not to be missed. And in case you did not know this room has an amazing view of Penobscot Bay (see photos below).<br />

Our garden is starting to come to life and in a few weeks the tulips and daffodils will be in full bloom. Here is a photo of last year's garden and we think this year will be just as delightful. With the longer days and temperature rising it is surely going to be an amazing season on the Maine coastline.<br />

A good thing it has not sprung yet with the predicted nor'easter due Tuesday/Wednesday.<br />
<br />
Thought this would be a good time to start back up with some restaurant changes in Camden:<br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><a href="http://www.freshcamden.com/" target="_blank">Fresh</a> is under new ownership; Graffam's closed on the pier and </span><a href="http://peterottscamden.com/" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;" target="_blank">Peter Ott's</a><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"> is moving to that location and Fromviandoux has closed.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">In Rockland one of our favorite spots <a href="http://www.waterworksrockland.com/page.php?15" target="_blank">Waterworks</a> has opened <a href="http://waterdogtavern.com/" target="_blank">Water Dog Tavern</a> in Thomaston ME where Billy's used to be.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">Of course we have to mention our favorite lobster pound (pictured) <a href="http://mainefreshlobster.com/" target="_blank">Muscongus Bay Lobster</a> in Round Pound ME. </span></span><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 14px;">A favorite to enjoy the views and fresh seafood with nothing fried.</span><br />

I have been avoiding this entry but it is time to write it.<br />
Caffrey, our Golden Retriever companion for 12 1/2 years passed away on her own laying next to Karen at home September 1, 2013. She was wonderful for both of us and the B&B. She never missed a beat even going through two cancer treatments over three years and her right leg amputation last year. She was greeting guests up to the time she passed away and will be greatly missed.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6768447481986141185.post-28415740415379555602013-07-30T18:03:00.000-07:002014-02-13T17:29:02.076-08:00Within the past few days I have had two requests for this delicious oatmeal souffle' recipe so I thought I would post it on Dave's blog. I like to make this soufflé when we only have a few guests because, as you might guess, it can be difficult for me to get the presentation correct if Dave is busy chatting and the oatmeal soufflé is deflating on the kitchen island. Dave entertains and serves the guests each morning, while I do the preparation for breakfast. This is an easy recipe and would be great even if it deflates. I think it would be wonderful served to family / friends on Christmas morning. I have served this recipe with dried cranberries / pecans or Maine blueberries or raisins / walnuts. I hope your family enjoys this recipe as much as our guests do.<br />

dish to create a small channel around the <i>s</i>ouffle<i> </i>base,
which will encourage it to rise straight. Bake for 30 minutes or until the

She enjoys the car ride and just being on the deck with us as we enjoy lobster, mussels, corn on the cob, fish chowder and of course a bottle of our favorite wine.<br />

So here goes and I hope you will be inspired also to enjoy summer's bounty and create your own recipe.<br />
<br />
As many of you know at around 11:00 a.m. each day I drive my little VW Jetta up and down the Mid Coast. Why? well I like to see what is fresh at the various stores, farm stands and one of my favorite merchants in Belfast, Chases Daily. This past weekend I decided to go left out of Timbercliffe Drive and head to Belfast to see if by some chance I could buy some squash blossoms. You can find squash blossoms if you are lucky but you better get to Chases/farmer's market early and yes, I was fortunate to buy a bunch. They also had summer squash and fresh, beautiful basil. Here's my version of a <a href="http://honestcooking.com/squash-blossom-frittata/" target="_blank">recipe</a> that I tweaked and I hope that you will be inspired to try it and perhaps create your own version of a summer Squash Blossom Frittata.<br />

<li>I had some free time the other day and took a walk in a park next to the Post Office in downtown Camden ME. After being here eight years I had never seen this stone tablet in the park. The last name on the stone tablet is Chauncey Keep. Chauncey Keep owned the house that is now our Timbercliffe Cottage B&B. One of our bed chambers, the Chauncey Keep, is named after him. Although we have never seen it, there is supposed to be a wing in a museum in Chicago named after him. He was a Chicago resident at one time.</li>

Waiting for guest checkins I took a walk around to the backyard and snapped this photo. Maine is just beautiful this time of year. <br />

After our guests checked out we decided to take a mothers day trip to one of our favorite lobster pounds, Shaws Fish and Lobster Wharf about an hour drive from our Bed and Breakfast. The weather, which was foggy and rainy in Camden, turned out sunny and blue sky for our lobster, lobster pie, wine and blueberry pie a la mode. Afterwards we took Caffrey for a walk near the <a href="http://www.lighthouse.cc/pemaquid/">Pemaquid Point Lighthouse</a>.<br />

Today we drove with Caffrey to Ocean Point Maine about an hour drive from Timbercliffe Cottage B&B. A beautiful drive and a favorite of ours in the early spring. Caffrey loves it here and had a great mile walk. She is getting stronger now after shorter walks during the week.<br />

Not far from our B&B in Camden, Maine. it is a nice scenic ride down one of the many peninsulas near by. Beautiful little villages with harbor views. Port Clyde is one of the places to take a ferry to Monhegan Island. A nice day trip as the ferry leaves around 10:30 and departs Monhegan at 4:30. There are hiking trails with beautiful ocean views and great spots for a picnic. Around the bend from Port Clyde is the Marshall Point Lighthouse and museum. This lighthouse was featured in the Forrest Gump movie.<br />
