extra money, it seemed natural to
offer their 1865 brick farmhouse to
guests.
At first, her one complaint about
having overnight guests was the
need to cook breakfast
“I always said that I’d rather
cook a full-course dinner than
breakfast” Kathy said. But that
soon changed. With a cache of tas
ty breakfast recipes, Kathy now
prefers to prepare breakfast rather
than dinner.
Although the breakfast menu
varies, it often includes such spe
cialties as cheddar eggs, breakfast
pie or egg, potato, and cheese cas
serole. In addition, either pecan
sticky buns, apples en croule,
blueberry coffee cake or fruit pizza
are served with beverages. Every
thing is homemade and Kathy will
even accomodate special dietary
needs for the guests.
The first year, the Vogts offered
only one room to guests but that
soon expanded to three guest
rooms.
Kathy does all the laundry,
cleaning, and cooking required for
the bed and breakfast in addition to
the usual household chores
required in raising a family.
“Sometimes I feel guilty that I
don’t have more time to keep the
grandkids or spend time with the
family,” Kathy said. “But I prefer

nient meals with “big” flavors top the
list of hot food trends, according to a
recent poll of food professionals by
the National Pork Producers Council
(NPPC). Now, the NPPC is asking
Americans which of these trends are
currently tantalizing tastebuds at their
own tables with the Taste What’s
Next Recipe Contest.
“We’ve talked to the professionals
who say ethnic flavors, hot and spicy
seasonings, lean meats, exotic fruits
and easy-to-make meals with more
flavor and less fat are the hottest
trends,” says Robin Kline, a registered
dietitian and director of the Pork Infor
mation Bureau (PIB) for the NPPC.
“Now we want to talk to the real
experts the people who are prepar
ing meals for thier families every day
and see how they are using these
trends in their own homes.”
to be a loner in the kitchen. I have
my own way, time frame and func
tioning skills to get everything
done.”
The demands of running two
businesses also resulted in Kathy
resigning from community
involvement such as being 4-H
leader and local coordination.
Both Kathy and Keith eat with
the guests at the table that opens for
20, but the girls are barred from the
guest table, Becky said, “Because
we don’t have good enough table
manners and our grades aren’t
good enough.”
Her father’s standing joke to the
guests is “Becky only gets a 4.1
grade average, shecan’teven make
a five.”
Occasionally a solictous guests
doesn’t pick up on the camaraderie
between the parents and their
daughters and express dismay that
the girls’ “bad” grades aren’t kept
confidential.
“We are so accustomed to hear
ing Dad’s jokes that sometimes we
just ignore him,” Becky explained
the reason for some guests’ misin
terpretation of the family’s inside
jokes.
The Vogt’s recently installed a
gas fireplace with an old-fashioned
look by rising wood shutters stored
in the bam for the framework and a
combination of molding resulted in
a beautifully carved mantle that
