The Queen of Hearts has baked some Tarts.....
Join: The Queens, The Mad Hatter and Alice in Wonderland
For a
Mad Hatter's Tea Party
Noon to 2 PM
Saturday
March 31, 2007

The Queen of Hearts, Nancy, may play croquet with live Flamingoes, but she will refrain from screaming, "Off with their heads."

The Queen of Spades, Gretchen, will bring her collection of ornamental hats for use by party guests during the tea.

Eve, Pastry Chef to the Queens, will be working faster than a March Hare to concoct some of her fascinating creations for all to taste.

The Queen of Diamonds, Vickie, will provide the most visually interesting teapots and teacup sets along with some striking party flowers.

The Queen of Clubs, Sandy, will display some beautiful hand-painted china, which can be acquired without solving any riddles. She promised not to splash paint on the guests.

Alex, Chef to the Queens, will be cooking up a tempest of offerings sure to surprise and delight even the most persnickety. Tulip-roots will not be served.

The banquet season is rapidly approaching...rehearsal dinners, weddings, office gatherings and other special events are around the corner with the warmer weather. Our dates are filling in quickly, so if you are thinking about planning an event at Silvercreek, give our new event planner, Prue (pictured above with Pastry Chef, Eve), a call.

Prue is always available to help plan your perfect special gathering. We are pleased to have Prue at Silvercreek. Her penchant for details and a mind that never quits producing great ideas, makes her a perfect fit. Prue recently retired from teaching at South Side Elementary and after teaching, she has always wanted to organize and plan events.

Many of you attended our Breakfast with Santa in December. This event is a perfect example of the work that Prue does for us everyday. The breakfast was a huge success! Prue has also been a regular at Silvercreek and the Courier Cafe for years! You can count on Prue for new and creative ideas when planning your event. To reach Prue or to find out about planning an event, contact Silvercreek at 328- 3402.

Hearty soups and breakfasts are the perfect way to warm up on these cold winter days. Every day at the Courier Cafe, we make hearty made from scratch meals to help fortify you against the elements.
For breakfast, try our buttermilk flap jacks, maple link sausage or our special corned beef hash with sauteed mushrooms.

Each day of the week, Gabe, the chef at the Courier, produces wonderful home made soups that have become local legend. Here are some of our favorites for cutting through that winter chill:

• Chicken noodle soup with home made egg noodles
• White Chicken Chili
• Vegetarian Lentil
• Famous Courier Midwestern Chili
• Hearty Vegetable
• French Onion
