Summertime Food
It's nice to lighten up and enjoy what's fresh. However, I have a staple at the Lazy T that is good anytime of the year. So I am going to share my favorite granola recipe. It is so easy to make and change to suit your taste or allergies. It makes a good snack, too.
Makes 6 1/2 cups, serves 12 (not at my table)
3 c. old-fashioned oats
1 c. slivered almonds
1/2 c. coconut
1/3 c. honey
1/4 c. canola oil
1 c. dried cranberries
1.2 c. dried banana chips
Preheat oven to 325 degrees
Stir together oats, almonds, coconut, honey and oil in a large bowl.
Spreak in a rimmed baking pan and bake until oats are golden (about 30 minutes). Stir often to prevent sticking.
Remove from oven, let cool, then stir in cranberries and banana chips. Store in airtight container after completely cooled.
Substitute the fruit or nuts to taste or for variety.
Enjoy!
Coming up next is about being a first time Bed and Breakfast guest! Answers to many questions I receive.

"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication", Leonardo Da Vinci
A home cooked meal, a comfy bed with great linens, bright stars and brilliant sunsets, peace and quiet, or exhilarating conversation. It's pretty simple. No themes and gadgets; no silly names and come-ons. Life at the Lazy T is simple and sensible. Life in Fredericksburg is the same way. I ran a few errands the other day and when I came home my average MPH per my car was 20!
Baking brownies, coffee cakes, and pouring wine for new found friends is a great way to live. It's like throwing a party many days a week. Someone asked me if I had made any friends in FBG, I answered yes, at least 10 a weekend. My world expands greatly guest by guest.

The Need to Keep Up
Well, it has been pointed out to me in no uncertain terms that I am behind on my blog even though I Tweet, FB, cook, clean, worked on design of new cards, rack cards and now website. And by the way the Lazy T is having a record third year. Now I am a full time resident of the Lazy T which means I completed the move from my home of 25 years. So I am proud to say that I will attempt to keep up. I really think my guests come first, but some people prefer to push that you are all things to all people.
It's Spring in Texas and the drought is really bad. Mowing will be a minimum but watering will be required entertainment. With gas reaching record highs travel is well thought out. The world is in turmoil and earthquakes won't stop. I am sure I could think of more bad things, but I choose not to.
I choose to keep on keeping on. People continue to need to get away from all the daily life issues that make their lives hard. It is my job to see that they have the best value experience for their hard earned money. There are more goodies and bigger breakfasts at the Lazy T. There are more shared experiences and shared sunsets at the Lazy T. There are more morning laughs, more music, and more star gazing at the Lazy T. There is more of a drive for me to "Keep Up" at the Lazy T. For you see, the guests who come as strangers and leave as friends are my reason to be at the Lazy T.
Happy to be bone weary but "keepin' up". Hugs and Sunsets, kk
