Rise and Shine for Your Valentine…Breakfast in Bed?



My afternoon in the Danforth Inn’s kitchen with Meredith Goad, food writer for the Portland Press Herald was fun and delicious! My first video (photographers are usually behind the camera) seems a tad boring to me but I’ll work on it for next time! The Danforth’s kitchen seems home to me, it’s one of Kim Swan’s  (The Swan Agency Sotheby’s International Realty) inns and the one where I hold the Art of Breakfast cooking workshops for Maine’s Innkeeping Academy that Kim and I started a little over a year ago.

I love to show how combining simple ingredients in unique ways can elevate breakfast and add a touch of sophistication. 

Ah, The Art of Breakfast
