Cookie Day!

Diet Breaker!

We go through a lot of cookies at Oft's B &  B.  Guest often come down to the kitchen in the evening to fix a cup of tea, hot cocoa or to get a soft drink.  The cookie jar often get visited.  We feature two kinds: double chocolate chip, coconut, pecan and good olde peanut butter cookies.  We commonly send cookies along with our guests to enjoy on their trip home; it helps keep our cookies fresh and its good business.

We bake 6 dozen at a time and they last about from 2 to 4 weeks depending upon how busy we are.  This morning 4 sisters from Bismark left after spending 3 days with us and we sent along the customary sack of cookies.  We were down to our last bag.  After cleaning the rooms and getting all the laudry done, it was time to catch up with our baking.   The aroma of home made cookies permeated the house.  So much for my Atkin's diet!  

Kansas Sisters take their "Sister Weekend."

Dancing at the Wurlitzer

In their own words:  

"For several years now we four sisters have enjoyed what has fondly become known as "Sister Weekend". We like to find a bed and breakfast to enhance our time together. This year, we chose the Oft's Bed & Breakfast in Bennington Nebraska. We are happy to state that our stay here was exactly what we were looking for.  Our hosts Gordon and Linda were hospitable, kind and gracious. We knew our stay here would be special when Gordon offered to carry our bags upstairs for us. That simple act went far in making us feel welcomed. Our breakfasts were delicious and made a great start to each day. Our rooms were very comfortable. We spent many hours enjoying the fresh air on the balcony with access from our rooms. We are leaving today feeling refreshed and renewed. Thank you to our hosts for making our stay very enjoyable."

Weather was WONDERFUL!
