Heart to Hearth Cookery

Tomorrow August 2nd, I will be at Bolton Mansion for their Summer Festival from 9 am to 3 pm.  Bolton Mansion as it exists today contains the original 1687 home of Phineas Pemberton (politcal and influential Bucks County leader at the time of William Penn) and its additions which were completed in 1790.  Tomorrow I will be preserving cherries and mushrooms at the hearth where I conduct hearth cooking classes twice a year.  The next cooking class will be Saturday November 14, 2009 from 10 am to 4 pm.  The hearth cooking is done at one hearth and we enjoy our meal with wine in the oldest room of the house.  The picture to the right is the meal that was prepared at the hearth at the March 2009 class.  Please visit my website for more information on the upcoming class and for registration information: www.hearttohearthcookery.com.
