Here's another scene with Kelly Devine and I! No pool this time around, but in the bedroom! We both agreed that it doesn't matter where we get to lick each other's pussy's - it's the fact we get to do it! Enjoy this lesbian video and photo gallery with Kelly and I!
I have to say that I have been really treating myself lately. I have been down at the sex store buying all kinds of fun toys to masturbate with and of course the nasty pictures that I like to show my fans. I mean what good is all the fun I'm having with my wet pussy if you guys can't see some of the action!
Look what I bought today! When I saw this glass dildo at the store I new that I had to have it. My pussy started watering the minute I laid my eyes on it! But the best part is that I took some pictures of me getting down and dirty with my new toy so you guys can join in on the fun!
It's been one hell of a vacation I have to say. I've spent the whole time fingering and fucking my snatch and taking pics of myself. So it's been more like a working vacation but I don't mind. If this is work I guess I don't need a vacation after all!
I know that you guys love to watch me get naked. That's great because I love getting naked and showing off my gorgeous body. I have curves that make most men cream their jeans once they see me. This is definitely the right business for me to be in!
Lets face it. I have a great set of tits. And when you have an amazing rack like mine you can wear anything and still look good. I love having guys check out my chest. And wearing something sheer and see through makes everything sexier.
I love getting lingerie that has leopard print on them. If I had a spirit animal it would definitely be a leopard. Lets face it, I am an animal in the sack! And when I'm horny and I have you in my sights I won't stop till we are both sweaty and satisfied.
It's been a long day and I am so happy to be home. No matter what I wear I always get attention from the boys. That's why once I get back to my place I love to strip down and get naked. Nothing feels better than letting my giant jugs loose and getting comfortable and happy.
If there is one thing that I love to wear it's a bikini where my tits are practically spilling out of my top. And I think that you guys like it too. I mean with a body like mine it would be a shame if I wore a one piece bathing suit that covered up the goods. There is just something about a bunch of horny guys feasting their eyes on my luscious curves.
I may be an adult now but I still like to cuddle up with my teddy bear. Right now it's the only thing I have because my boyfriend cancelled on me tonight. It's to bad you're not here right now because I need some serious affection. I bet you like seeing me in my nighty too. Well, it's his loss and your gain. So take your cock out and stroke it to these pictures.

Last week, I was able to visit one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to make an exciting announcement, recognizing the Green School in Bali as USGBC's "2012 Greenest School on Earth." The school has some incredible features, such as structures made from environmentally friendly bamboo, solar energy, and vortex hydro technology projects to remove the school entirely off the grid, bio-intensive farming around campus to raise organic food and so much more. The Green School is a reflection of the values of the Balinese people, an inextricable tie to nature, a true appreciation of the earth's beauty and a fertile environment for most anything (and in this case children) to grow.
One of the things that most impressed us about the Green School was its commitment to giving back to the local Balinese community – the school offers an Indonesian Scholarship Program, which provides almost 100 percent financial support for local children to attend. The school is the way that famous jeweler John Hardy elected to give back to a country that had made his business so successful. The school is in and of itself an act of service.
This, and so many other actions by parents, teachers and students around the world have become inspiration for us. We wanted to find a way to bring together the people who care about our schools and making them healthier, more sustainable learning environments. So we are calling on volunteers to come together for one day to join us for the first ever Green Apple Day of Service.
On Sept. 29, 2012, we anticipate more than 2,500 service projects led by more than 20,000 volunteers, will take place around the world to further advance the Center's mission of green schools for everyone within this generation. This event will bring together individuals and communities to make changes in their schools and surrounding areas, and there are plenty of ways for you to get involved with this effort leading up to and on Sept. 29.
Perhaps you and your kids want to clean up your school grounds. Or maybe you work for a large company where the employees want to commit to help an elementary school plant a garden or initiate a recycling program. Whatever you decide to do, be sure to check out our event website, www.mygreenapple.org to search for events near you, register your own activity, invite your friends and family to participate and sign up to receive more information as we move closer to the date. And don't forget to share your idea with us through social media using the hashtag #greenapple and by visiting the Center for Green Schools Facebook page and adding the event to your calendar.
The Green Apple Day of Service is driven by individuals like you – if one in every 10 Parenting magazine readers hosted their own service project at their children's schools, we could increase the number of projects by hundreds of thousands. So brainstorm a service idea, grab some volunteers and join us in starting what is sure to be a national movement. We can't wait to have you on board.
Rachel Gutter is the director of the Center for Green Schools and is an experienced teacher and green building consultant.

Drakensberg (Dragon) Mountains
Into the dragon's lair
Rolling high-altitude grasslands, pristine steep-sided river valleys and rocky gorges contribute to the beauty of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. Also included in the protected area are thousands of rock paintings left behind by the San people, who lived in the Drakensberg area for more than 4,000 years.
Competing with dragons for food are Drakensberg's main predators, including leopards, black-backed jackals, caracals and servals.
Dragon prey
Troops of chacma baboons, porcupines and colonies of rock hyrax are also found throughout the mountain park, as well as over 300 bird species; 32 which are endemic to southern Africa.
Located within Drakensberg Park is the Giant's Castle Nature Reserve, which gets its name from the silhouette of the peaks and escarpment that resemble the profile of a sleeping giant.
Beware the Giant
It is also home to some giant animals like the eland, the world's largest antelope, and the bearded vulture, a huge raptor.

Paul George followed his triple-double by scoring a playoff career-high 27 points to lead Indiana past Atlanta 113-98 on Wednesday night.
The Pacers lead the best-of-seven first-round series 2-0 and have won four straight home games over the Hawks. It's the first time Indiana has held a 2-0 series lead since the 2004 Eastern Conference semifinals.
George, playing in his first game since being named the league's Most Improved Player, was 11 of 21 from the field, had eight rebounds, three assists and four steals and again played well defensively. George Hill had 22 points.
Atlanta was led by Devin Harris with 17 points. Jeff Teague and Josh Smith both had 16. The Hawks head home for Game 3 on Saturday.
Indiana again took control late in the first quarter and never trailed again.

Gas prices soar Canada-wide
Sticker shock at the pumps took drivers by surprise this week, with some areas of Canada breaking records and reporting gas price hikes of more than nine cents overnight.
The good news is it won't last, says Canada's chief gas price expert.
Dan McTeague, former Liberal MP and founder of TomorrowsGasPriceToday.com, said prices should fall by the summer.
"It's becoming a fundamental question of affordability and I think as people respond to these prices by consuming less, that will leave prices with no where to go but down."
After all, when prices go up, it affects everyone's bottom line, McTeague said.
"And you might say, 'Oh it doesn't affect me' or 'I don't drive a car,' but you better think twice. Those hikes will make their way through the economy and the next shoe to drop will be food."
Montreal became the most expensive city in the country for gas on Wednesday when prices hit $1.534 per litre, up 9.5 cents from Tuesday, according to McTeague's site.
Folks in Regina paid $1.339, up 5.5 cents. Toronto hit a two-year high at $1.399.
Alberta boasted the cheapest gas at $1.279 in Calgary and $1.259 in Edmonton, but prices still rose five and four cents, respectively, overnight.
New Brunswick hit $1.409 in some areas, close to its 2012 record of $1.422.
Prices nationwide are expected to rise again Thursday, possibly beating records set in May 2011.
McTeague blamed the weakened loonie, Canada's overreliance on imported oil and a "speculation on the futures market over a perceived belief that U.S. demand has gone up and that gas inventories have gone down."
"There's a speculative premium being put on fuel that has no basis in economic fundamentals, i.e., supply and demand," he said.
He said the feds, who make big money taxing the pumps, should demand greater transparency from producers. "Ottawa has to give strong thought and leadership to make these things happen."

A grenade is an explosive weapon designed to be thrown or launched by an individual soldier. Such weapons have been existence since the early ages of gunpowder weaponry in the form of crude ceramic or cast iron bombs with simple fuses, but became much more common and reliable during the Great War.
Several types of grenades exist:
- Hand grenade: A small thrown bomb used by infantry.
- Grenade launcher: A device that fires small, low-velocity explosive shells.
- Rocket-propelled grenade: A grenade that propels itself toward the target.
- Fragmentation Grenades: Grenades designed to shatter into a blast of high velocity shrapnel, commonly used against infantry.
- Flashbang Grenades: Grenades that create a lot of light and noise to disorient or render enemies unconscious.

- Thermal detonators are used by both the Rebel Alliance and Galactic Empire, as well as other factions in Star Wars.
- The Imperial Guard uses frag and krak grenades. Forces of the Tau Empire use photon grenades.

WASHINGTON (AP) Stephen Lumpkins scored 24 points and grabbed nine rebounds to lead American University over Lafayette 68-64 Saturday in Patriot League play.
Daniel Munoz added 12 points and John Schoof 11 for American (8-14, 3-4), which shot 52.3 percent (23 of 44) from the floor. Lumpkins was 8 of 10 from the field and combined with Munoz to make all 16 of the Eagles' free throws.
Schoof's 3-pointer with 6:47 left in the first half broke a 14-all tie and sparked a 15-2 run for American. Lumpkins capped the run with a three-point play.
Seth Hinrichs led Lafayette with 18 points and Bryce Scott went 5 of 5 from 3-point range for 17 points, but the Leopards (11-13, 4-3) could not overcome a 26.1 percent (6 of 23) first-half shooting performance.
American, which snapped a two-game skid, held a 31-22 rebounding advantage and dished out 14 assists to six turnovers.

Bluegrass Community and Technical College receives scholarship funding from PNC Foundation
Bluegrass Community amp; Technical College students will soon have a new opportunity to apply for 123 financial support, thanks to a new partnership between the Kentucky Community and Technical College System (KCTCS) Foundation and the PNC Foundation. The PNC Skilled Workforce Investment Scholarship is a one-time $30,000 scholarship.
We are grateful to PNC for their generosity. Their investment in BCTC students will help individuals and families plan for high paying, fulfilling jobs that benefit local businesses and ultimately support the economy of the entire region, BCTC President/CEO Augusta. A Julian said.
Students enrolled in high wage, high demand workforce development programs or who plan to transfer to a Kentucky four-year institution will be considered for the scholarships. Preference will be given to applicants from low-income households, and also to BCTC applicants aspiring to high-quality jobs in advanced manufacturing.
A business cannot succeed if its communities are not well positioned for future growth and success, said PNC Regional President John L. Gohmann, Lexington/Central Kentucky. Our goal with this scholarship is to further the development of Kentucky's workforce and ensure the long-term vitality of the communities in which we serve.
The scholarship will be awarded during 2013, 2014 and 2015. Scholarship recipients will receive $1,000 ($500 per semester) to use toward tuition. Recipients will be able to reapply for the scholarship, but will also be considered among new applicants.
For additional information about the PNC Skilled Workforce Investment Scholarship program, please contact Vernal Kennedy at email@example.com (859) 246-6507.

By this time, the office and school parties are winding down, and the real eating will soon begin. So we want to offer some ideas for enjoying the old traditions found online, and a Good Luck New Years Day recipe courtesy of the Morning Call in Allentown, Penn.
Las Posadas
The story of Joseph and Marys quest to find a place to stay the night in Bethlehem is enacted from 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. through Tuesday at Olvera Street in downtown Los Angeles. Christmas carols are sung in English and Spanish. The finale is a party with a piñata and champurrada, a drink similar to hot chocolate. Call 213 628-1274 for more information.
Candy Canes
A choirmaster who wanted to give children something to keep them occupied through the long Christmas church services invented the candy cane in 1670. He modeled them after the crooks the shepherds carried. Peppermint flavoring was added 200 years later, according to researchers James and Kay Salter. Try crushing candy canes and sprinkling over ice cream or rice pudding. Yum!
Eggnog Bread Pudding
Ingredients: 5 cups cubed panettone, an Italian holiday sweetbread; 1 quart eggnog drink (from the supermarket is OK); 1/4 cup sugar; 4 eggs plus 2 egg yolks; 1 teaspoon of cinnamon; 1 tablespoon of vanilla; 1 teaspoon of ground nutmeg; and enough powdered sugar to dust the top of the dessert. Eggnog Bread Pudding recipe: Place all ingredients except panettone in a large bowl and mix well. Place cubed panettone in a 9-inch by 13-inch casserole dish that has been sprayed with nonstick spray. Pour liquid over the cubes. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until pudding is set. Dust with powdered sugar.
Good Luck New Years Day Dinner
Any Pennsylvania German knows that pork is served on Jan. 1 because it brings good luck. Pigs root forward, signifying progress, lore dictates, whereas turkeys scratch backward. Throw a pork shoulder in the crockpot with sauerkraut, baby potatoes and a teaspoon of cumin.

Maestro Mark Russell Smith, Music Director and Conductor of the Quad City Symphony Orchestra, leads the orchestra in an international collaboration culminating in a large-scale performance of Benjamin Britten's War Requiem. This epic masterwork combines a non-liturgical setting of the Requiem Mass with nine poems by English poet and fallen World War I soldier, Wilfred Owen. Originally performed in 1962 to commemorate the reconstruction of the Coventry Cathedral following its destruction during a World War II bombing raid, the Requiem presents a historically resonant message, communicating pacifist ideas of international unity and the tragedy of war. This performance is part of the Britten Peace Project, founded by Mark Russell Smith, and brings together musicians from the QCSO, Quad City Choral Arts, Minnesota Boychoir, Macalester College Concerti Choir, Augustana College Choir and Detmold Hochschüle fur Müsik. Soloists include soprano Caroline Thomas, tenor John De Haan and Philip Zawisza, baritone.
(Concert recorded March 3 and 4, 2012)

After a long trip to Jamaica and a short hiatus, Spring Hill Records is back with a new, super heavy reissue!
'She Sexy' was originally recorded at Channel One as a special for UK producer Rusty. It was released in 1985 on the Dancefloor label, on a split showcase LP called Michael Palmer Meets Kelly Ranks At Channel One. The next cut for Freddy McKay's Another Weekend and Johnny Osbourne's Kiss Somebody, this tune is definitely one of the heaviest to be recorded on this monstrous, sound system riddim. Palmer repetitively describes Rusty's girl as being 'sexy like a bottle of pepsi', transforming this weighty roots riddim into an early dancehall bombshell.
And here's the good part - The version is a previously unreleased dub version, mixed by the Scientist in an ultra hard Rub A Dub style!
Both sides are a must for any serious selectors out there looking for that super heavy bass weight in a cool & deadly fashion.

Someone needs to school Lil Wayne.
You don't make rap songs using the late Emmett Till's name in a sexual reference. Emmett was just a 14-year-old black boy when he was fatally brutalized after whistling at a white woman while visiting relatives in Mississippi in 1955. Outrage over his killing and how his murderers were allowed to go free helped galvanize the Civil Rights Movement.
I guess Lil Wayne thought he was being clever when he worked Emmett's name into his new song "Karate Chop." But the way he did it was so vile that I'm not going to print it. I know he's an entertainer and performers like to push the boundaries. But what happened to Emmett came to symbolize what was wrong with the Jim Crow south. To trivialize that in such a crude way is offensive. I'm glad the Rev. Jesse Jackson has stepped in as if to say hold up young son. The Associated Press is reporting that Emmett's remaining family objected and that Jackson reached out to Wayne's management, The Blueprint Group. Epic Records has apologized.
"We regret the unauthorized remix version of Future's 'Karate Chop,' which was leaked online and contained hurtful lyrics," it said in a statement. "Out of respect for the legacy of Emmett Till and his family and the support of the Reverend Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. ... we are going through great efforts to take down the unauthorized version."
Epic will release an official version of the song that "will not include such references."
I reached out to Simeon Wright, Emmett's cousin, who was with him when he whistled at the woman, but the call wasn't picked up.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

23 May 2013
As Formula D enters its 10th season of competition, there have been a number of off-season changes. From new championships to changes in sponsorship, keeping up with the shuffling has been hectic to say the least. PASMAG is proud to be a major media partner for the 10th consecutive year in 2013, and you can expect more of the best coverage of North America's biggest professional drifting series throughout this season. Let's take a look at 10 new changes in Formula D's decennial year.
1. GoPro Rises to Presenting Sponsor
GoPro has been a partner with FD for several years, but now acts as the presenting sponsor. GoPro signage will be on all cars and marketing material, as well as providing unique video content for every event. Additionally, GoPro cameras will be used exclusively on all cars.
2. New Track – Texas Motor Speedway
Formula D visited Texas in 2004 and 2005, but this years event at Texas Motor Speedway (just outside of Dallas) marks the first time the series will drift competitively on a track in the Lone Star state. Texas replaces Las Vegas on the calendar as the sixth stop, between Seattle and Irwindale, on September 14.
3. New Qualifying System
In past years, each driver used their best score of two runs to rank into the top 32. This season, the top 16 scores after the first qualifying pass will count for the top half of the bracket (positions one thru 16), while the second qualifying pass for the remaining drivers will determine positions 17 thru 32. No driver taking a second qualifying pass will earn a tandem ranking higher than 17th, and only the best score will stand. Additionally, drivers will make passes based on their championship position, with the championship leader making the first pass each round.
4. Car Manufacturer Championship (use same graphic as program guide)
At each round, the top two drivers for each vehicle manufacturer will earn points towards that manufacturer. The drivers don't need to be pre-determined, nor do they need to remain the same from round to round. For the purpose of the competition, cars are allowed engine swaps from the same manufacturer only. A Scion car with a swapped Toyota motor is allowed, but a Nissan with a swapped Chevy motor is not.
5. Tire Manufacturer Championship (use same graphic as program guide)
This season, the top two drivers on each tire manufacturer will earn points towards this cup. Drivers earning these points do not need to be predetermined, nor do they need to be the same for each round. With eight tire manufacturers set to compete at each round, this competition will be as tightly monitored as the drivers championship!
6. Rhys Millen is Out
Long time competitor Rhys Millen will not be competing in 2013. With Hyundai motorsports pulling back its sponsorship, Millen was unable to find enough funding to continue his program. Millen leaves with a series championship in 2005, seven event wins and 12 podium finishes. We wish nothing but the best to Millen in his future motorsport endeavors!
7. Returning Drivers – Kearney / Rydquist / Wang
Several drivers are returning to the series this year after taking some time off. Dean Kearney is back behind the wheel of a Viper (although this car is a different chassis than the Sam Hubinette Racing car in 2011). Carl Rydquist is piloting a 350Z that was previously campaigned by Robbie Nishida in 2009, and Forrest Wang is in a freshly-built S14 chassis. All three drivers are running their own programs after previously driving for other team owners.
8. New Title Sponsors – Pat Mordaunt / Matt Powers / Odi Bakchis / Vaughn Gittin Jr.
Each year, several sponsorship changes occur behind the scenes. For 2013, four drivers stand out as having the most significant changes. Pat Mordaunt signed Diamond Lighting Solutions to the title spot on his Lexus SC430, Matt Powers will drive with Fatlace as his title sponsor, Odi will have Nexen as his title sponsor, and Vaughn Gittin Jr. is now driving under the Nitto Tire banner alongside returning sponsors Monster Energy Drink and Ford.
9. New Cars – Mertzanis / Tuerck / Denofa / Angelo
Our May 2013 issue covered five new cars on the grid in various states of their builds (Mike Essa - BMW E46, Toshiki Yoshioka - Subaru BRZ, Conrad Grunewald - Chevy Camaro, Andy Hateley - BMW E30 and Otto Graven - Scion FR-S). We arrived in Long Beach to find several additional cars too. Dennis Mertzanis teamed up with ARK Performance to build a Hyundai Genesis Coupe, Ryan Tuerck debuted a Scion FR-S powered by a 2JZ motor, Chelsea Denofa piloted a four-door E46 chassis, and Tony Angelo brought his 2AR-powered Scion FR-S to the competition. All four of these drivers also made it into the top 32.

How to repair a window
Cracked or broken glass in windows or doors can be very dangerous, especially if you have small children or pets. You could be compromising the security of your home, and the glass won't be weatherproof any more. If you can't make a full repair straight away, try at least to make a temporary repair and ensure the area is safe.
If you need to replace glass in an upstairs window, work from a scaffold tower rather than a ladder and avoid working on a windy day. It's also best to carry the panes on edge to stop them bending and to wear protective gloves while you're doing the job. And remember that to handle large pieces of glass safely, you'll need someone to help you.

Watch The ::God Is Imaginary Videos On YouTube ::
Sure. I'll give you an example from one of my kids books that I had discussed in an earlier thread:"Biology- Understanding Life" – Alters & Alters - copyright 2006.As always, I no more than flipped it open to page 251 where a new chapter starts and am immediately drawn to strange claim made in the first paragraph. The chapter is titled "Beyond Darwinism: A Genetic Basis of Evolution." The very first sentence in the chapter says "Scientists know that snakes evolved from ancient lizards."They know this ?? The next two paragraphs go on to explain the hypotheses that have been formed to explain how the ancient lizard lost its legs. Now, I have heard that there is supposedly fossil evidence to suggest that snakes evolved from lizards but to see a college level text declaring that scientists KNOW this is, to me, a good example of the dishonest claims that are often made.And then you have this:"Houssaye, however, does not think the case is yet closed as to whether or not snakes evolved from a marine or land-based lizard."The question of snake origin should not be resolved in the next 10 years," Houssaye said.She is, however, hopeful that all of the separate teams working on this puzzle can one day pinpoint what species was the common ancestor of all snakes." http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/41463087/ns/technology_and_science-science/ February 7, 2011This "story" (when examined carefully) claims that these alleged useless hind legs were present on this poor creature for anywhere from 4million to 22 million years !!! Was it a land based lizrd or a marine based lizard ? Don't know. Not only that, this "snake" expert (or whatever she is) openly admits that the fossil record cannot pinpoint an ancestor.But my kid's biology book says that scientists know that snakes evolved from lizards. Nice.

This inn is conveniently located a short walk from the main square in Healdsburg. It's a charming early 20th century structure with parking in the rear. The neighborhood is quiet and residential. Our room, the Sunset, was very clean, with a super comfortable bed, cute little rocking chair, and an updated en suite bathroom. The owner, Karen, is very friendly and knowledgable about wine, not to mention an excellent baker (we were treated to cupcakes for St. Patrick's Day, and there are always homemade cookies). I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

John and Karen are great hosts and will if it is within their powers to grant your every wish. The Inn is easy walking distance to the square. John also makes great breakfasts.

We loved our stay at the Haydon Street Inn. John and Keren couldn't have been nicer, or more helpful. And their dog, Bailey, was absolutely adorable! Our room, the Victorian, was spacious, private and comfortable. The water pressure in the shower was amazing and much appreciated after long days of sightseeing and wine tasting. The real show stopped at this inn is the 3-course breakfast. Every bite was delicious. The location is fantastic, just a few blocks to the center of town. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you John and Keren for making our stay so enjoyable!

Karen was an amazing hostess. The room was perfect, the facility in excellent condition, very clean and updated. The breakfast was amazing. The property is within walking distance to downtown. This BandB was a great find. We will be back.

This B + B is in a quiet residential neighborhood, but within walking distance to the town square (~ 5 min.) The innkeepers are down-to-earth people who enjoy running a B + B and have great ideas on where to go and what to do. Just ask. John is a former chef, and his gourmet breakfasts alone are a reason to stay here. Guests are also offered homemade snacks and wine in the afternoons. The rooms/bathrooms are clean, well maintained and lovingly decorated, but not over the top. Our bed was very comfortable. There is a TV room and sitting room as well as a porch and garden for guests to enjoy as well. Overall, a great experience!

My wife and I are not a B&B couple, but we took a recommendation form a coworker to stay at the Hayden Street Inn. With reservation we took the recommendation and might I say we blown away. The charm of the Inn was perfect as was the room. Very spacious, comfortable and clean. The bathroom was better then the ones at the Conrad and the sheets were just as comfortable. The innkeepers John and Karen were outstanding! They were there if you needed them and not if you didn't. Don't miss music on the square on Tuesday or John's three course breakfast. I am in the foodservice industry and work with some top chef's, John stands right there with them! thanks again John and Karen!
4,8 en junio 25, 2012
John and Karen are wonderful innkeepers. John's breakfasts are not the cup of coffee and bowl of granola fare. Instead they are indicative of John's experience as a chef. The pizza and wine are not to be missed on Friday afternoon. Karen knows Healdsburg like a native and her suggestions are extremely helpful. We will return.
4,2 en junio 25, 2012
John and Keren were great hosts, and the food was outstanding. We spent a long weekend there to celebrate our 25th anniversary. The Turret room was very nice! They also made some excellent suggestions for wineries and for restaurants in the area that we did not have on our original list - much appreciated! We would certainly stay there again!

My husband and I so enjoyed our stay at this lovely Inn. The hosts were gracious, the breakfast was amazing, and we enjoyed getting to know other guests. Also, the location was perfect as we were able to walk to the plaza for dinner each night. Beautiful and relaxing front porch and courtyard as well. The only disappointing thing was the size of our room... very tight!
4,4 en noviembre 03, 2011
My husband and I spent a terrific weekend with our grown son and girlfriend at this lovely inn. The rooms were attractive and the beds were extremely comfortable. Our inn keepers were knowledgeable, friendly and the breakfast was top notch.We enjoyed dinner at the Barndiva and a self guided bike tour outfitted by Wine Country Bikes in Healdsburg. We visited several wineries along Dry Creek with a yummy lunch along the way at the surprisingly gourmet dry Creek General Store.
4,8 en octubre 15, 2011
Highly recommend. Keren & John are gracious hosts and with the Inn's period decor, we considered ourselves guests in their home. John's breakfasts are delicious and the evening wine hour is a friendly gathering -looked forward to John's homemade pizza but afternoon showers prevented firing up the o/s oven. The location was great for our initial visit (Michiganders) as we took day trips to the coast and upper Napa Valley as well as "local" wine tastings.
4,2 en septiembre 29, 2011
It was our first time in Healdsburg... Great company - we met the nicest people during our stay here - and the town is walking distance away. We had dinner both nights in town and enjoyed great recommendations and wonderful food. Healdsburg is a truly pleasant place to visit and we can't wait to come back. Too bad we ate out our second night because John decided to have an impromtu and most unexpected outdoor pizza oven night - he is truly an artist and a generous host. Our room was gorgeous and comfortable, coffee spectacular, hospitality was endless and the breakfasts were to die for. We'll be back.

My wife and I stayed in the Sunset Room at The Haydon St Inn for 2 nights as part of our honeymoon in July 2011. We loved the Inn from the moment we arrived (conveniently just in time for Wine Hour) and enjoyed our stay immensely. The room was well appointed and was really charming. Our hosts John & Keren made us feel very welcome and the service was outstanding. A special mention must be given for the unbelievable 3 course breakfasts. A real treat and most unexpected. Location was great with just a 5 min walk into the centre of town. Highly recommended and we will definitely be back!
4,6 en mayo 18, 2011
The Haydon Street in is the perfect location to stay in Healdsberg. It is walking distance to downtown and within driving distance to many other wineries. The rooms are comfortable and the breakfast is wonderful! The Innkeepers were also very helpful providing recommendations on places to visit and places to eat. We highly recommend this Bed and Breakfast.

My husband and I were recommended the Healdsburg wine region and we decided to stay at a B&B for the first time. The location was excellent- walked an easy 10 minutes to dinner in the centre of town. The rooms were so gorgeous- we had the turret room- queen deluxe and it was so unique and special! The service was amazing. Karen gave us maps and information on great restaurants, wineries and shops. We also followed their self drive winery tour of the area. They hosted "wine night" and provided wine and home made dips, cookies, nibbles. Then, John in the morning made an exquisite 3 course breakfast- delicious! What a wonderful experience. We loved the feel if a B&B. We would certainly return to the Healdsburg region and Haydon Street Inn. Thank you, Nancy and Lloyd- Australia.

The Hayden Street Inn is lovely. The entire house is well appointed and extremely clean. I stayed in the Garden Room, which had one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. The inn is located on a quiet neighborhood street (also ideal for a good night's sleep) yet only a few blocks from the downtown square. Excellent hospitality by both Keren, who served me a glass of wine upon my arrival, and John, a former chef who made a fantastic breakfast of scrambled eggs, warmed grapefruit and homemade multi-grain muffins. The hosts have a Midwestern warmth. I would highly recommend the Hayden Street Inn.
4,6 en abril 21, 2011
We spent 3 nights with john & Keren, and they could not do enough for us. The location was close enough to the centre of Healdsburg to be walked easily, yet extremely quiet . We would certainly recommend the haydon Street Inn to anybody visiting Sonoma. Peter & Sarah
4,6 en marzo 05, 2011
Haydon Street Inn is a perfect spot for a romantic getaway to Healdsburg. My girlfriend and I enjoyed EVERY aspect of being there - the rooms, the innkeepers, the food, the location, all fantastic. Highly recommended for a special weekend with a loved one.

We spent 6 days at the Haydon Street In and couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. We could rave about the accommodations and food, but that aspect can be seen on any of a number of reviews of the Haydon St Inn that can be found on various consumer rating sites. What really made the experience stand out was the role that Keren played in enhancing our entire holiday experience. It seemed she made it her mission to see that we enjoyed all of our daytime excursions to local attractions. One particularly special event was the picnic party she treated us to at the city square weekly festival. Another great aspect of the experience was the community breakfast in the beautiful dining room and the evening wine gathering of all the guests. These daily social events afforded us the opportunity to share ideas of the best restaurants and attractions to see in the area. At the end of our visit Keren checked us in for our return flight and made arrangements for our purchases to be shipped to us. What luxury! We would recommend this without reservation!!!
5 en septiembre 29, 2010
We had a very comfortable stay with multiple choices to be made--"Shall I enjoy the front porch swing, put my feet by the fire pit, soak in the hot tub or chat with the other guests over the wonderful snacks that go with each evenings wine tasting?" And the breakfasts were excellent! Truely a 'home'-base to enjoy the wine country from!
4,8 en septiembre 28, 2010
We resently visited Haydon Street Unn and were greeted with "Open Arms". The room was fantastic, very home like and the breakfasts were 5 Star, Outstanding! The wine tasting in the evening was enjoyable also. I would recommend staying at this B&B, John and Karen were greet hosts, they made you feel at home.
4,6 en septiembre 22, 2010
My first stay at a B&B and I loved it. Very friendly staff and very helpful with making dinner reservations, assisting in places of interest, shipping of wine. Outstanding breakfast, and evening snacks. Would recommend this Inn and return again. Connie
4,4 en septiembre 07, 2010
Karen and John were very delightful and helped us with dinner reservations and our activities throughout our stay. They were very accommodating. It was nice to visit with everyone during the wine and cheese hour. The breakfast was awesome. The Inn is close to everything.

• My wife and I recently returned from a 4 stay night at the Haydon Inn with remembrances of a wonderful time. Keren and John have developed a gracious residence where someone can relax and enjoy a vacation getaway. The morning breakfasts were deliciously prepared and no meal was duplicated during our stay. In addition to a fine breakfast, wine and cheese were served on the patio during the early evening. Additionally, their knowledge of the area assisted any planning we made with regard to dining out or touring the wineries. The Haydon Inn is well maintained with comfortable accommodations and within walking distance of down town Healdsburg. It was a wonderful experience and my wife and I look forward to a return trip next year.

August 14,2010 John and Keren are wonderful hosts...lovely wine hour outside...and delicious gourmet breakfast. Decor and furnishings take you back to early 1900's ..just blocks from downtown square. We would come back for sure!!
4,0 en julio 14, 2010
Nice room, spacious and well-appointed common areas, and beautiful landscaping. Breakfasts were creative and delicious. John and Keren were both very helpful with advice about our daily excursions. We hope someday to return to the Sonoma Valley, and when we do we would definitely like to again stay at the Haydon Street Inn.
5 en junio 23, 2010
This was our first visit to a B&B and we could not have had a better experience. John is a very friendly, knowledgeable host who went out of his way to be sure we had a good visit to Healdsburg. He was very helpfully in helping plan our wine tasting route. And did I mention breakfast? John serves the best breakfast you will ever have. Even french pressed coffee on each table. Wine and snacks in the evening was a great time to talk about experiences of the day with other guests. Within walking distance of the square so you could walk to dinner, shopping etc. Don't miss this gem!
5 en junio 17, 2010
The Welcome and Warmth at this Inn makes you become a member of the family of visitors immediately, and a part of the community. Enjoy a book on the wrap-around porch, stroll their gardens, or a short walk to beautiful downtown Healdsburg; tour area vineyards but DON'T miss their evening wine tastings, and you will NEVER forget your OUTSTANDING breakfasts!! Haydon Street Inn is a 'not-to-be-missed' experience!! We'll be back!!
5 en junio 11, 2010
At the last minute we changed our reservation from a hotel outside of town to the Haydon Street Inn and I'm so glad we did. The location is wonderful, the rooms beautiful, and we received outstanding service from the innkeeper, John. He went out of his way to make sure guests were well taken care of. Our second evening, the traditional wine hour was held at the Jazz Festival in the park, and John set out blankets, wine and nibbles for the guests so they could enjoy the music and a little taste of small-town life. Breakfast was also delicious, healthy and filling. We stayed in the Rose Room and I have to mention how wonderful the bed is--I had no idea that sheets could be so soft!
5 en junio 01, 2010
We were warmly welcomed and found Innkeeper John to be not only a great chef (3 course breakfasts) and host, but a great source of information about wineries, restaurants and cycling routes in the area. The Inn location is ideal for walking to restaurants, shops and the town plaza. We plan on returning next year.
4,6 en mayo 25, 2010
WE booked the Inn for ourselves and some guests for our son's destination wedding in Sonoma from the internet without physically seeing the Inn. We booked a preliminary stay a few weeks prior to check everything out before the big day!! We were so pleasantly surprised by the warm, clean, and friendly atmosphere. John, the owner, is a hands-on owner and is there to make you welcome and answer any questions you may have. On top of that John is a five star chef and has an awesome breakfast daily for his guests as well as wine and hors d'oeuvres each evening. The wedding is in a few weeks and we are looking forward to our return and know our wedding guests will also feel welcome at the Inn.
5 en mayo 18, 2010
I grabbed a last minute reservation and the room was so much more than I hoped for! Beautiful, spacious rooms with new fixtures, comfortable beds, and a private jacuzzi. Breakfast was quite tasty too. Within walking distance of the Square. We'll be back!
4,6 en mayo 11, 2010
We spent 3 nights at Haydon Street Inn. This B&B exceeded my expectations. Everything was very clean and there was a lot of attention to details to make sure that our stay there was very comfortable. Haydon Street Inn has a great location and within a short walk to the Healdsburg square. Very nice breakfast. Overall a great experience.
4,8 en mayo 10, 2010
We loved our stay at the Haydon Street Inn. The room was cozy and the bed was super comfortable. John's breakfast is to die for. The candied walnuts and the homemade cookies were a great touch. The location is great in that it is just off the beaten path but close to anywhere and everywhere you want to go in ...the area. (just minutes walk from Healdsburg city center. Overall a great stay. Will definitely come back again.
4,6 en mayo 08, 2010
It would suffice to give this B&B an outstanding recommendation on the basis of friendly welcome, attentive service, a large, pleasant, airy and quiet room and proximity to the Healdsburg plaza. But words fail to do justice to the imaginative, delicious breakfasts! The owner was once executive chef at Churchill Downs, and it shows. If Gourmet Magazine were still publishing, I'd be writing one of those we-stayed-at-a-place-and want-you-to-share-their-recipe-for-______ requests. Bon appetit!
5 en mayo 05, 2010
The house was charming, as were all the guest rooms. The breakfast was a culinary treat each morning. The host, John, was as gracious as he could be, and we wouldn't hesitate to stay there again. The location of the inn to the square was only a 5-10 minute walk. We had a fabulous time at the inn and in Healdsburg!
4,0 en abril 30, 2010
My husband and I came to the area for a wedding and will be making a trip back that includes a stay at this lovely B&B! We appreciated Keren's personalized recommendations –based on our likes and requests. The food was delicious. Our room, the Sunset Room, was bigger than I expected from the pictures. Loved being able to walk to town for dinner and tastings!
4,6 en abril 27, 2010
Grounds: Large property on a quiet neighborhood street. Gorgeous landscaping, trees, and a variety of flowers. House is perfectly painted and in very good repair. Nice on all four sides. Private parking lot. Short walking distance from town square. Rooms: Large, bright, and immaculate. Spotless bathroom. Very comfortable beds. Beautiful and detailed decor. No complaints, but would have liked to have an in-room iron. There probably was one somewhere in the house, but I didn't bother asking. Free filtered water bottles. good-smelling shampoos and soaps. Jacuzzi tubs with great water pressure in the shower. Food: Breakfast was excellent, delicious and filling, with smoothie shots, homemade muffins, stuffed french toast, fresh Eggs Benedict, delicious fruit parfait, Bellini, French press coffee. Mmmm good. Nice company at breakfast, too. Service: Although Keren was out of town, her husband John took very good care of us, his manner engaging without being intrusive. Overall we had an excellent weekend here, and will hope to be back. I have a hard time imagining some other B&B could be any better at the price. At any price, actually. I mean, whaddaya want?! Stay here and I certainly can't imagine you'll be disappointed.
4,8 en abril 19, 2010
Just thinking about the Haydon Street Inn makes me tickle. There are so many wonderful things about it that I don't know where to begin. First, upon arrival, John greeted us from our trip from New York with fresh hot chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies and coffee that are available every afternoon. We grabbed a cookie, dropped our bags off and came downstairs for the in-house wine tasting where a local winery had come in to hold a private tasting. We then strolled into Healdsburg for a tasty dinner. The next morning we woke up to one of John's three course breakfasts, an incredible way to start the morning. The presentation was gorgeous and the food was simply delish. The rooms were very clean, cozy, supplied with sumptuous robes and our shower was fitted with a spa style ceiling mounted rain shower head. We felt at home right away. We loved the spotless and beautiful inn, its location in town but within jogging distance to a vineyard and John, the innkeeper, for his ability to be wonderfully hospitable without being overbearing. I can't wait to return.
4,2 en abril 18, 2010
My husband and I do not normally stay in B&B due to the privacy that is usually lacking. At the Haydon St. Inn we were treated so fabulous, John the innkeeper is a talented chef..our wine hour and appetizers were so good. The breakfast complete with fresh smoothie and homemade muffins, not to mention the stuffed french toast....wonderful, fabulous, outstanding. The room was fine, bed comfortable, a bit stuffy without the availability of fresh window air (the windows do not open) and I could have used more light to get ready for the day. It was a very nice place to stay, I would stay there again.
5 en marzo 12, 2010
The breakfast was splendid. The rooms were flawless. The advice was well researched. The wine hour is a bonus!

I have stayed at B&Bs throughout the Napa and Sonoma Valleys for the past 20 years, and this one ranks among the top 2 or 3. Have stayed at numerous places in Healdsburg as well, but Haydon St Inn is at the top for breakfast. What do you expect from an accomplished chef? You stay at a B&B for the homey feeling, and you definitely get this at Haydon St. Inn. You are made at home, and there is a very comfortable feeling you get when you stay there. Not pretentious, not stuffy. Great bed. Would definitely stay there again. Eggs Benedict was fantastic!
5 en marzo 02, 2010
What a delight this B&B was. Large well-appointed rooms, plus a very nice upgrade (unrequested) offered by Keren, one of the owners upon our arrival. The B&B is located in a very quiet neighborhood, and has its own parking lot, so parking on the street is unnecessary. Breakfast was wonderdul, and included fresh juice, a Mimosa, fruit and granola, and eggs benedict. A fantastic value all the way around. When we return to Healdsburg for another stay, Haydon Street Inn will be our lodging of choice.
5 en febrero 16, 2010
My boyfriend took me to this B&B on Valentine's Day weekend, we stayed in the Pine Room. The Haydon Street Inn is extremely warm and welcoming, everything was spotless and the entire Inn had a great deal of character. The owners, Karen and John were so helpful by providing us activities to do around town. John also serves a delicious breakfast! I highly recommend staying here for any occassion. I was so upset when stay was over!
4,8 en diciembre 31, 2009
We thoroughly enjoy our 4 days at the Inn. Wine, cheese and hors d'oeuvres in the evening and a fantastic breakfast every morning. John is a fabulous chef. Very helpful with suggestions of wineries to vist that have their own charm and excellent wine. Rooms were very comfortable and the mix of guests sharing their experiences was most enjoyable. We have recommended the Haydon Inn to others and would return when in the area again.
4,6 en noviembre 08, 2009
Stayed for 2 nights, had made reservations on very short notice and they were very accomodating. A lovely home, breakfast was delicious and heartier than we expected. We had a nice stay and will return.

My husband and I just returned from our weekend getaway in Healdsburg. The area is beautiful but our trip was made extra special by staying with Karen and John at the Hayden Street Inn. The inn is beautiful and immaculately maintained. We loved that it is located walking distance to town, but was on a quiet side street. The food was delicious, and we really appreciated that John and Karen shared the harvests from their plentiful gardens and fruit and nut trees in the preparation of the meals - both breakfast and wine hour always offered a variety of delicious things to eat. I would come back to this area of wine country in a heartbeat and won't consider staying anywhere else.
4,2 en octubre 26, 2009
We recently stayed 2 nights at the Haydon Street Inn. I highly recommend the Inn due to the owners, Karen & John, the proximity to town center, the service, the rooms, the daily breakfast and the Inn itself. We thouroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone.
4,4 en septiembre 19, 2009
My wife and I very much enjoyed our stay at the Haydon Street Inn. Waking to the smell of fresh coffee from downstairs and the gentle sounds of birds and the garden water feature floating in on cool breezes made each morning a special occasion. The breakfast masterpieces that awaited each morning were a special treat that we enjoyed walking off in the charming town of Healdsburg or pedaling off as we cycled the surrounding countryside touring the many vineyards that are close by. Each evening we looked forward to the garden wine tasing the owners hosted as a time to meet the new guests and share stories of our experiences that day. The Inn is located easy walking distance from a quiet downtown area offering excellent dining. Our room and the bedding were very comfortable and the private bath just across the hall was large, clean, with a modern shower and good hot water. We highly recommend the Haydon Street Inn. Thanks John and Keren for a wonderful stay.

The Inn is more than you will expect. We were greeted so warmly. We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfasts and the afternoon wine tasting and hors d'oeuvres were exceptional. Keren is very knowledgeable of the wineries and made great recommendations. We caught a Tuesday concert in the park… really did enjoy the music. John and Keren saved us a place on the blanket. We so enjoyed their hospitality and delicious foods.
4,8 en agosto 10, 2009
Our stay here was great. We had the Turret Room, a comfortable room with a spacious bath and unique furnishings. Breakfast was an interesting and delicious combination of tastes. We would highly recommend this to anyone. And we will be back.

We enjoyed everything about Haydon Street Inn. Keren and John provide a warm welcome, a beautiful room, and a delicious breakfast. Oh yes, the "wine hour" – what a charming way to start our visit. Ari and Ruth Caprow
4,2 en julio 22, 2009
Haydon Street Inn is a jewel in the wine country. It is charming, comfortable, convenient, and not so frilly as some B&Bs, with great service and gourmet breakfasts that will keep you going until dinner. Highly recommended!
4,6 en julio 19, 2009
Always exceptional hospitality. John's culinary background shows in the exceptional breakfasts. Good wines are served in the late afternoon. The owners have good relations with local wineries and know the newer ones that are worth a visit.

Our first visit to Healdsburg was wonderful... and the Haydon B & B added to our stay. Gracious innkeepers... beautiful rooms, yummy gourmet breakfast and so close to the main square. We would definitely book with them again. Susan & Rick, Key West

Sonoma County's best little secret. FABULOUS Inn run by Keren and John. BOTH are absolutely wonderful people. They will go out of their way to help you out and provide you with excellent suggestions on new wineries, restaurants, sites, etc. We have been staying at The Haydon Street Inn since 2001 and return every year. We will continue to return on an annual basis. John's cooking is SUPERB and Keren does a FANTASTIC job in trying to take care of everyone. The Inn is perfectly located within walking distance of Healdsburg Square. If you have any special reservations you would like to place, Keren will take care of them and you are guaranteed a wonderful time. The Haydon Street Inn is the ONLY place we want as our "home" when we are visiting the wine country.

My wife and I have stayed at the Haydon Street Inn many times now, and there is a reason we keep going back. I can't imagine a more romantic getaway than there! The location is absolutely prime for wine-tasting and great restaurants. But when it comes to food, there are no better breakfasts than what John prepares each morning. I look forward to the breakfasts as much as the evening dinners locally! They are exquisite hosts and are so knowledgable about what to do in the area. The Inn and furnishings are antique and timely for a few days of total relaxation and therapy!

What a lovely way to spend our weekend! John & Keren warmly greeted us upon our arrival. We were treated to a wine, cheese and olive reception and Keren was able to score us a reservation at Cyrus! The recommendations they made for tasting rooms were very good. Our room was in the cottage, upstairs. Lovely decor and the room was very clean. The bed was wonderful for sleeping in - slept like a log every night. Breakfast was a foodies delight. Starting with fresh fruit, a smoothie shooter and an airy scone followed by stuffed French toast on a plate which was brushed with a berry sauce and decorated with a yummy mango sauce.

My husband and I stayed at the Haydon Street Inn recently and were pleasantly impressed. Keren and John, the innkeepers, were warm and welcoming, and helped make our stay very comfortable. After our days of fun, we'd return to the comfort of our spacious room to unwind and wake up to a delicious home-made breakfast in the dining room! The Inn has a great location as well. We easily walked to the town square and within minutes were among a number of restaurants and shops. Haydon Street Inn was a highlight of our vacation in Healdsburg. We will return!

Haydon Street Inn is the perfect place to stay for a relaxing weekend in Wine Country. The rooms are nicely appointed and very comfortable. The owners have thought of everything including a TOGO coffee cup if you have to get up and leave early and NEED that morning cup of coffee (and asprin incase you have a wine headache). The evening wine tasting with a gourmet snack was very special (I had it for dinner one night) and their magazine selection very nice along with nice entertainment center (we were able to play the wedding DVD on their Living Room TV). They start with an amazing 3 course breakfast (served at ( 9 AM sharp). It was the perfect place for my girlfriends wedding followed by a fabulous formal dinner for under 25 people. You'll notice their special attention to detail and processes...all part of making it a special place to stay in Healdsburg. I'd highly recommend Haydon Street as it is just a short two block walk from town. You can get a pass for the Pool at a local health club which is also walking distance and head to the Healdsburg Hotel Spa for a treatment which would also allow you to use that pool...I'd say it is by far the best choice in town.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Keren and John at the Haydon Street Inn. Located just a few short walking blocks from the plaza, it is a great place to explore all of the food, beverage and shopping available in central Healdsburg. And with a car or bike there are literally hundreds of wineries to visit and enjoy. The Haydon Street Inn is like being with family, and the breakfast is wonderful. Rooms are well priced for this locale, and my wife and I will definitely be back.

We have stayed at Haydon Street Inn twice and have enjoyed ourselves immensely each visit. We can't imagine that there could be anyplace more welcoming or comfortable in all of the California wine country. Haydon Street Inn enjoys a perfect location….far enough from the center of town to be very quiet and relaxing but close enough to walk to the plaza for a great selection of wonderful shops, wine tasting rooms and restaurants. The Inn itself has all the amenities one could wish for…..scrumptious multi-course breakfasts by owner/chef John (formerly chef at Churchill Downs, I believe) and wonderful wine and hors d' oeuvres in the late afternoons, delicious home made cookies in the evenings, luxurious robes, linens and guest room amenities. Owners John and Keren obviously have put themselves in the place of guests and imagined and provided most everything you could want for in the way of luxury and comfort. They've even provided a small refrigerator in which to keep your own wines chilled, if you like. The Haydon Street Inn has a lovely front porch with rocking chairs but the garden and patio in back are so inviting, it's always hard to pull ourselves away from it. There is even a fire pit in the back and each evening after dinner, we would adjourn to the fire pit with another bottle of local wine and visit with other guests, exchanging stories of our adventures that day, what we had planned for the next and sharing recommendations. Speaking of recommendations, Keren and John are a treasure trove of suggestions regarding where to go and what to do. Keren would often make suggestions at breakfast and by the time we had finished enjoying John's wonderful repast, Keren would have appointments made for us for private tours and/or tastings or laid a an itinerary for our day. We found some of our favorite wines at some wonderful smaller wineries that we might never have found were it not for Keren's suggestions.

My wife and I spent our 10th Anniversary at Haydon Street and enjoyed every moment. The owners helped with local restaurant and winery reservations and gave us recommendations - they clearly not only knew the area but genuinely enjoyed their life in Healdsburg. The room was beautiful and large, the bed was both soft and supportive and the bath luxurious. The remodel from a private residence to an inn had been completed with careful thought to making areas accessible, modern and comfortable. Natural light enhances the Victorian - but unintrusive - decor. The breakfast was not too much and the waffles/omelets, etc. filled us, but weren't overly rich. Chocolate cookies at tea time; wine later in the afternoon. Perfect.

From the moment we pulled into the driveway, we knew we chose the perfect B&B. What a beautiful victorian home with a wonderful wrap-around porch, and the grounds are very well kept. We were warmly greeted by Keren and she showed us around the immaculately-kept inn. We stayed in the Garden room and it was perfect. Wonderful views of the garden and our own bathroom! Loved the comfortable bed and the soft sheets. Woke up two mornings to John and Keren cooking us a mouth-watering breakfast. We think it was the best B&B breakfast's we have ever had and we have been to quite a few. We HIGHLY recommend the Haydon Street Inn. Cheers to John and Keren!

This was my fourth stay here and 3rd with John & Keren. Both will greet and treat you warmly throughout your stay. Both are quite knowledgeable of the area, local wines, current vintages and restaurants. They have great palates and pay close attention to detail. CONSISTENCY is word here and it will assured. Your slightest whim will be addressed. You will meet some of the most interesting people from around the world. Ask about their specials. You will be missing a truly fine experience if you stay some place else. It is like staying with family (that you like!) Can't wait to go back. HW

A warm, comfortable and inviting B&B with just the right amount of antique and modern decor. The bed was beyond heavenly and the bathroom completely upgraded. The innkeeper was a chef for years and the breakfasts were 3-courses, healthy, filling and incredibly tasty. The innkeepers extensive personal knowledge of the local restaurants, shops and wineries was very helpful in planning day excursions.

We enjoyed our recent stay at The Haydon Street Inn in Healdsburg, CA. The Inn is about 4 blocks to the cute downtown area of Healdsburg. The breakfasts were awesome! We enjoyed getting to know the Innskeepers, John and Keren and appreciated their hospitality. We'd definitely recommend The Haydon Street Inn and hope that we have an opportunity to visit them again soon.

This charming Inn was a great start to a Russian River Valley winery tour experience. Cannot imagine a better place to stay in the area. Walking distance from the town square and the action in Healdsburg. Looking forward to our next stay.

As you can see by the picture, this beautiful inn is just what you are looking for in Healdsburg. From the wrap around porch to the plush and comfortable beds the inn is perfect for a wine country visit. The breakfast and the service were wonderful and although the innkeepers were very helpful with suggestions when asked ,they did not "badger" their guests. We loved the location and the ambiance and would definitely stay again when in that region. Paul and Linda

Stayed at the Haydon St Inn while visiting wine country on labor day wknd 2008. We found the inn conveniently located to many wineries and local attractions in the area; my partner and I walked to dinner in the town square both nights. The inn itself was beautiful and our room well appointed. Ample parking, free WiFi access, plenty of area maps and info, as well as afternoon wine hour. From early morning coffee on the front porch swing, to gourmet breakfasts (I'm not exaggerating), John and Keren made our stay very comfortable . They were also a wealth of information for planning our trips to nearby wineries and San Fran attractions. Overall, a great B and B that we would plan to stay at next time we return to Healdsburg. No complaints.

A wonderful visit our hometown, 24 years later, was only made better by the hospitality and amenities of the Haydon St. Inn; comfortable beds, well furnished rooms and a homelike atmosphere. We had a very quiet and relaxing visit [except for the new bride that fell out of bed next door] with a gourmet breakfast each morning. Good breakfast conversation with interesting people from all over the country. John and Keren were very gracious and welcoming and made the stay very comfortable. We would highly recommend this B/B to anyone!! We'll be back soon. Thank you...Bob/Nan

A beautiful home in a picture perfect town. John and Keren's home is absolutely lovely, set in a quaint neighbourhood. Very hospitable, thoughtful and helpful hosts who guided us with our travel plans.... and my recently injured knee. Both hosts actually spent time with the guests during wine hour and were very helpful in planning and suggesting itineraries for all their guests. The home was immaculately clean and well organized - pamplets, maps, vouchers for local wineries, copies of local restaurant menus - WOW. The gourmet breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented. My only complaint was that we were unable to stay for a longer period of time. We are already looking at returning to California and will certainly include a return visit to the Hayden Street Inn. Thank you for sharing your home with us - we really had a beautiful experience.

We had a great time at Haydon Street. The entire home was well kept and very clean, and trust me when I tell you we are clean freaks. The room was small but just enough and the bed was so plush and comfy. Breakfast and Happy Hour were hosted perfectly and we felt very comfortable with both Keren and John. John really out did himself for breakfast. The fact that he is a chef, put Haydon street above and beyond. The morning coffee on the front porch, fresh baked cookies in the kitchen at all times and plenty of personal touches made our vacation special. We look foward to coming back. Joe and Tina, NY,NY

Spent 3 nights at this inn, a very lovely place. The Innkeepers, John and Keren made you feel right at home, from the moment of arrival. Very informative of area events, wineries and anything else they could possibly help you with. The breakfasts were just suburb! House was very charming, including the grounds, the parking and the location of the area to walking convenience of the town. Hard to beat an innkeeper that's a professional chef! Highly recommend this to anyone planning to stay in the area. You won't be disappointed!

We had a wonderful 5 night stay at the Haydon Street Inn. Healdsburg itself is charming but nothing compares to the Rose Room. We walked to lovely restaurants, listed to music in the town square and slept like babies. It is truly a wonderful place to stay. Keren and John are gracious and fun. Happy Hours are a cannot miss. Breakfast? 3 courses of seasonal, local tastiness. Napping after breakfast permitted. Sad to leave but hopeful to return soon. Easy to day trip great place to come home to.

The inn was sparkling clean (obviously the house cleaners are doing their part) and the price for the rooms were fairly priced. The breakfast was pretty good but not the best we ever had in comparison to other b&b's ... it was hostess that ruined the whole thing! She was cold and indifferent, very unwelcoming. She was very strict about her rules and would not let us in even a minute before our check in time nor would she let us sit at the table for breakfast before SHE said it was ok. Strange ... very strange. We will not stay there again and we would never recommend such an unfriendly place. The husband was nice though ... he should be the one to great the guests rather than her.
5 en julio 03, 2008
Keren is efficient, personable and patient. John is just a happy guy and a fantastic chef. The garden room had plenty of natural light along with a great cross breeze. Breakfasts were decadent and delicious. The company from the other guests ranged for light chit-chat to stimulating. Add toall of this the great town of Healdsburg and the wine country and you have a get-a-way that is worth every penny. This is our first bed and breakfast experience and it taught my wife and I two things...one: we will be back to Haydon Street Inn and two: we will never run a bed and breakfast! ; )

When Corzine joined the firm in 2010, he widely publicized the fact that he intended to transform the firm into a full-service investment bank — a Goldman Sachs-mini. But that transformation would require capital. To fund his vision for the firm, Corzine personally took on the role of head-trader and began taking positions in European sovereign debt. "Because of this risk to the company's income statement and the time it would take to realize gains, a direct investment in the bonds themselves would not achieve Corzine's objectives. However, the company discovered that it could book quick profits by purchasing the bonds and then using them as collateral in a transaction known as a repurchase-to-maturity (RTM) agreement," the report says.
In addition to this expansion into new revenue streams, Corzine created an authoritarian atmosphere at MF Global in which his decisions were not to be questioned. The report notes that when Michael Roseman, MF Global's chief risk officer, argued against expanding the limit on the sovereign debt positions in September 2010, Corzine began looking to replace him.
In November, the board approved expanding the European RTM portfolio to $4.75 billion and Corzine informed Roseman that he would no longer report to the board but to COO Bradley Abelow. Abelow had been Corzine's chief of staff when he was Governor of New Jersey. In January 2011, Corzine dismissed Roseman and replaced him with a new chief risk officer, Michael Stockman.
By August 2011, these RTMs were coming to light at regulators, and the Financial Regulatory Authority (FINRA) made demands that MF Global begin taking haircuts on these positions. As these positions came to light to credit rating agencies, the firm began to face a liquidity crisis as its credit rating was put on negative outlook.
Although FINRA's charges against MF Global were filed on Sept. 1, they didn't really come to the public's attention until an Oct. 17 story by the Wall Street Journal. The timing proved to be fateful because the firm was to release its worst ever quarterly earnings report on Oct. 27, which would announce a loss of $191.6 million.
To try and head-off some concerns, Corzine moved the company's earnings call up to Oct. 25. During the earnings call, Corzine and CFO Henri Steenkamp tried to assure investors that the firm was in the best financial situation it had ever been in. According to the report, "Corzine also sought to clear up 'clouded perceptions' about the company's European RTM portfolio, asserting that the trades had 'relatively little underlying principal risk' and had realized 'zero' loss. 'On a personal note,' Corzine added, 'our positions and the judgment about risk mitigation steps are my personal responsibility and a prime focus of my attention.'"
The call did little calm customers' anxieties, and as credit rating agencies cut the firm's rating to junk status, customers and counterparties sought to distance themselves from the firm. "MF Global's customers and counterparties also reacted to the earnings news, and as the crisis deepened, MF Global faced a liquidity drain of crisis proportions…One counterparty, HSBC pulled MF Global's line of credit and ordered the company to wind up its business with the bank by the end of the year," the report says.

Why waste it when you can wear it? For Michael Massimi, the invasive-species coordinator at the Barataria-Terrebonne National Estuary Progream (BTNEP), morphing nutria fur into a fashion "must-have" was a natural response to the invading critters. A semi-aquatic rodent indigenous to South America, nutria (Myocastor coypus) was imported to Louisiana in the 1930s for the fur-farming industry. After being released—whether intentionally or accidentally—into the wild, they've damaged coastal wetlands with their voracious appetites. Massimi's role under the BTNEP, one of 28 programs established by Congress through the Clean Water Act, is to preserve Louisiana's coastal vegetation and ecosystem. His No. 1 priority? Culling the nutria.Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.
Photo by pelican
Deemed a swamp rat, the rodents have become so pervasive that they are being killed under government programs to reduce their numbers. Massimi recognized the unsustainable realities of this system, so he suggested that New Orleans fashion designer and environmentalist Cree McCree use nutria as an ethical way of curbing their overpopulation. With a $4,500 grant from his organization, Massimi helped McCree jumpstart her new fashion venture: Righteous Fur.
Fashion designer and environmentalist Cree McCree promotes nutria as the "guilt-free and eco-friendly" alternative to mainstream fur.
Fashion designer and environmentalist Cree McCree promotes nutria as the "guilt-free and eco-friendly" alternative to mainstream fur.
Nutria made its mark on the runway in November at a Brooklyn fashion show put on by Righteous Fur. Promoting nutria as the "guilt-free and eco-friendly" alternative to mainstream fur, McCree has established a unique position within the green and animal-rights movements, forcing fellow "sustainable fashionistas" to question their ethics.
Mainstream designers have even jumped onboard the trend lately, with Oscar de la Renta, Billy Reid, and Michael Kors all integrating nutria furs into their collections. As Greta Garbo's former fur of choice, the direction this trend could take gives us pause. Largely, if the "nutria look" takes the fashion world by storm, the animals will eventually have to be bred to keep up with the demand. Then, where are the morals of this supposed solution?
Says Massimi in the Spring 2011 issue of OnEarth: "Frankly, that's a problem I would love to have."

*** (out of four)
Predictable. Corny. Those terms certainly fit "Trouble with the Curve." Guess what? They fit the vast majority of sports movies.
Though not without its flaws, "Curve" is a movie you root for. Veteran baseball scout Gus (Clint Eastwood) has spent his life knowing what players to get behind. Now, with three months left on his contract, Gus can barely see, but he'll be damned if he lets the younger folks in the Atlanta Braves organization (including a slimy, sexist Matthew Lillard) push him out the door. Gus' friend and colleague, Pete (John Goodman), recommends that Gus' daughter Mickey (Amy Adams) join him in North Carolina to evaluate a hot high school prospect (Joe Massingill) whose arrogance outweighs his social skills.
Gus is pure Eastwood. Ask Gus how it's going, and he'll growl, "Absolute crap." He's a grouch with a good heart, though, and Eastwood effectively anchors a story about the courage it takes to know when you're spent and the importance of keeping your eyes open for opportunities. Equally well-used: Justin Timberlake as Johnny "The Flame" Flanagan, a former pro pitcher until he blows out his arm and follows in Gus' footsteps as a scout (with his eyes on the broadcast booth). Timberlake's great as a scarred charmer. I liked Johnny and Mickey, and I liked them together.
The absurdly overrated "Moneyball" purported to discuss the notion of recognizing people who are undervalued. It really just used sports-movie enthusiasm to obscure why the team was really winning.
"Curve's" first-time feature writer Randy Brown may have the occasional tin ear for dialogue, and the film gets a bit obvious in addressing the difference between something that works on paper versus real life. Still, the message connects because "Curve" is nice and funny and sincere.
Gus yells at the table he can't see before he trips over it. He insists computers offer no help when judging a player. His stubbornness may be why he seems like he's been a better coach than father. What director Robert Lorenz, Eastwood's longtime assistant director, gets right is the difference between listening to your gut and knowing when someone else is right—and recognizing baseball as both a game and something more, depending on who's cheering.

ma - i'm eating vegetables for dinner today! my cholesterol is great, remember when i went to the doctor over the summer and got an a+ on my report card?
- dana11:42 AM
i made these last night, they were deliiiiicous, in a lowbrow sort of way. i had a hard time getting my batter to stick to the hot dogs, and mine looked a lot lumpier than yours, but i cooked & ate them while watching saved by the bell and it was so much fun. also, i put smoked paprika, mustard, cayenne, and garlic powder into my cornbread part (i was using these really bland chickendogs)ReplyDelete
Awesome Jen!! This is one of my favorite (and rarely made becuase I eat way too many fried foods lately) recipes, I'm glad it worked for you!!ReplyDelete
Corn dogs were one of the few things I truly missed after being diagnosed with CD.ReplyDelete
I tried this recipe today and had medium success with it, probably because I never actually "made corn dogs before" (just heated them up in the oven).
The batter is thick, but I worked that part out by the end - - did the normal trick of wetting my hands before touching the dough to smooth & thin it on the dog. I'll echo the comment above regarding getting the dough to stick to the dog: drying the dog and/or coating in cornstarch will help the dough adhere.
I made a couple adjustments: I used honey instead of sugar (just a squeeze over 1T for the 2T sugar) which worked really well. And after the first batch I added 1/4 tsp onion powder to the batter to enhance the flavor which was just enough to be noticeable.
I was less than successful when it came to frying. I fried on my stove top with a cast-iron kettle (la creuset to be precise - which is enameled) and used a candy thermometer to monitor the temp. I found the temp of 375 caused the outsides to get done too quickly, leaving the inside uncooked. So I had to finish cooking in my oven (which made them a little dry). 330 ended up being the magic number for me to get a completely cooked dog from the stove top.
It was nice to have a corn dog again. Probably won't do it often since we rarely deep fry in the house but I truly appreciate getting recipe so I can do it again!

One of the men who was arrested for drug crimes after Leavenworth police received an accidental 911 call has been sentenced to six years in prison.
One of the men who was arrested for drug crimes after Leavenworth police received an accidental 911 call has been sentenced to six years in prison.
Jesus D. Santos, 26, Leavenworth, was sentenced Wednesday to two years in prison for one count of attempted distribution of cocaine. But he also will have to serve an additional four years in prison for having his probation revoked in three previous cases.
Santos was arrested March 1 after Leavenworth police received a 911 call.
The dispatcher could hear what sounded like two people arguing. Police were able to locate the source of the call and met with Santos and Jesus E. Suarez in the 100 block of South Seventh Street. As they were preparing to leave the scene, police officers found what they believed to be crack cocaine in individually wrapped bags. The suspected crack cocaine was under the bumper of a car Santos and Suarez had been in when officers arrived, according to Assistant County Attorney Joan Lowdon, who prosecuted the case.
The suspected drug tested positive for cocaine. The drugs totaled more than 8 grams.
It's believed the 911 call was dialed by accident on a cell phone belonging to Suarez. The call has been referred to as a pocket dial call.
Last month, Santos pleaded no contest to the attempted distribution charge as part of a plea agreement in the case.
When given the opportunity to speak during Wednesday's sentencing hearing, Santos indicated he didn't wish to say anything.
The two-year sentence he received for the attempted distribution charge was considered the standard sentence under state sentencing guidelines.
Based of the conviction in this case, District Judge Gunnar Sundby found that Santos had violated the terms of his probation in three drugs cases from 2010. The judge ordered that Santos serve the underlying sentences in these cases, which total four years.
The two-year sentence Santos received Wednesday will run consecutive to the four years he will have to serve for the earlier cases.
In September, Suarez was sentenced to more than 14 years for crimes related to the March 1 incident. He pleaded guilty in August to several drug charges.
