<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OIhR0kQr-vA/VmDdVb6JxnI/AAAAAAAACGc/7rXRQJ9E8MU/s1600/nemorios.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="260" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OIhR0kQr-vA/VmDdVb6JxnI/AAAAAAAACGc/7rXRQJ9E8MU/s320/nemorios.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
Our Head Chef, Nemorio Ramierz, asked us if we would open the Inn for a fundraising dinner for his
mission trip to the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas in February with the Crafton
Heights UP Church (CHUP). This will be the 7th year that CHUP is sending
a group of adults to serve in this region. And of course, we would love to help them raise the funds to go help others in need.<br />
<br />
This is not a Franklin Inn event. We are just contributing the use of our resources. This means that our regular menu will not be available and there will be no bar service. Our General Manger, who is also a great cook, Chris, has volunteered to help Chef Nemorio prepare the meal and the wait staff will be members of the CHUP Mission Team. Isn't that cool? John and I are looking forward to being guests in our own restaurant! <br />
<br />
Chef Nemorio has created a wonderful special menu for this event. See the flyer below for menu details. It looks super yummy! I can't decide if I want the Salmon or Chicken selection. I think I'll make John order the opposite of me so we can taste each others.<br />
<br />
To purchase tickets you must see Chef Nemorio (He's at the Inn every day except Mondays) or call Gabe Kish at 412-922-1950. Space is limited. I'm not sure how long tickets will be available so don't hesitate because I think all who are going on the mission trip are responsible for selling a certain number of tickets. This would make a great Christmas Gift. A night out of great food and companionship that will contribute to folks helping others. On your next visit to the Inn, ask Nemorio more about the projects they'll be completing on this trip and the folks that they'll be helping. <a href="http://www.franklininn.net/nemorioflyer.pdf" target="_blank">(Click here for a flyer you can share and read the details better than the photo below.)</a><br />

We are excited to be participating in <a href="http://www.reynafoods.com/content/2nd-annual-chile-pepper-farm-festival" target="_blank">Reyna Foods Third Annual Chile Pepper Farm Festival t</a>his weekend. John and I attended as guests with our children last year and it was so much fun. The food was great and will be even greater this year ; ). They'll have hay rides, live music, demonstrations and more. It's a beautiful farm owned by the folks of Reyna Foods. You should come check it out.</div>

Tickets can be purchased on Reyna's website for a
discount or at the gate for just $10. Kids under 12 are free and so is
the parking. If you are attending the festival, stop by and say, "hi" to us. Chris, Julie, and I (Wendy) will be there. We are leaving the rest of our crew at the Inn to serve you...which means that we had to call in the reinforcements for the festival: Big Bob, aka my dad, my mom, Diane, my sister, Ammie, and my Uncle Johnny.<br />
<br />
<b>We will be serving Chorizo Wraps at the Chile Pepper Festival. </b> Earlier today, Chris and I practiced making the wraps and, as always, we have to taste-test everything. It's a tough job but someone has to do it!<br />

No nitrates or weird fillers. Just our special recipe blend of pork and spices created by John's mother, Sue, along with her butcher. You can buy a five pound box at the Inn to use in your own recipes or just visit us at the restaurant or the festival and we'll cook it for you<b>.</b> We also grilled beautiful hatch chiles that Reyna's brought in from New Mexico. They have a special flavor that chile lovers will enjoy. <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GS51RoXTHYM/UkYDebLbH1I/AAAAAAAAB40/D7O1_9eguOg/s1600/pepperfest7.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="140" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-GS51RoXTHYM/UkYDebLbH1I/AAAAAAAAB40/D7O1_9eguOg/s200/pepperfest7.jpg" width="200" /></a>We sliced these jewels and rolled them into a flour tortilla with rice, black beans and corn, cheese, pico de gallo, and shredded lettuce. Outstanding! You've got your protein, your sides and your veggies all rolled up so you'll be able to eat it on the go while enjoying the festivities. That's me under the blue tent getting our spot ready for the festival. Below is a flyer with full details about this event. Hope to see you soon.</div>

A great Christmas Gift. Buy your sweetie tickets to a wonderful evening.</div>
<br />
Enjoy a delicious four course meal designed especially for this dinner. Each accompanied by a Full Pint Brewing beer. Tom Marshall will be sharing information about local Full Pint Brewing. Chris is keeping most of the information about the meals and beers under wraps for now but he did say that you'd be enjoying their flagship beer, White Lightening. And, they'll be creating a special Mango Habanero Half Firkin or a "pin" just for the Franklin Inn. Not sure what a Firkin or a Pin is? Check out this link: <a href="http://www.hoppytrailsbeernews.com/beer-trivia/what-the-firk-is-a-firkin/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hoppytrailsbeernews.com/beer-trivia/what-the-firk-is-a-firkin/ </a><br />
<div>
<br />
According to Bierworks, "Both firkins and pins are loved by beer drinkers because they contain
ale that has not gone through the rigors of industrial beer production
(filters, pasteurization, force carbonation). As such, the ale that
results can be incredibly full and flavorful, sometimes brewed with
unusual ingredients. There’s yeasty activity going on there as the beer
matures inside the cask. You never know what you might get." I guess we'll get to taste and see for ourselves on the 25th.<br />

Chris and John recently toured local Full Pint Brewing for "research purposes" and were both impressed. John says that he loved everything that was poured
for him.<a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10152384065752294.1073741830.80635912293&type=1"> Here are a few photos from their Full Pint Field Trip.</a><br /><b><br /></b></div>

John and Paul Church this morning. We combined them into three big boxes, a shopping bag, and a duffel bag. Considering how little space most of the items took up in the boxes there must have been hundreds of toothbrushes, toothpastes, dental flosses, hand sanitizers, etc. I was going to count them all and report back to you, but there were so many!

<span style="color: red;"><u><b>Troops Item Collection at the Franklin Inn</b></u></span><br />
I received an email today from <a data-cke-saved-href="http://bouceksbattalion.org/projects.html" href="http://bouceksbattalion.org/projects.html">Boucek's Battalion</a>.
They have extended their collection deadline because they are short on
some items. I became aware of BB last week when I volunteered to help my
daughter, Julia, make cookies. Our local girl scouts organized a night
at Ingomar Middle School. The girls made 2,000 cookies! BB will be sending the cookies for Christmas. But, they
would like to send additional items that our troops could use.<br />
<br />
<b>Here is what they need most:</b><br />
* Power/Protein Bars<br />
* Eye drops<br />
* Deodorant<br />
* Decks of cards<br />
* Puzzle books<br />
* Socks<br />
* Hand Sanitizers (small, pocket size bottles)<br />
* Toothbrushes<br />
* Dental Floss<br />
<br />
<b><u>Bring these items to the Franklin Inn between now and Thursday</u>.</b>
I will take your donations Friday morning to the Boucek's Battalion
drop off site. They can also use monetary gifts to help with mailing
costs. <u>Please don't give us these monetary gifts</u>. Give financial contributions directly to BB. Visit their website for more details: <a data-cke-saved-href="http://www.bouceksbattalion.org" href="http://www.bouceksbattalion.org/">www.bouceksbattalion.org</a>.<br />

It's formerly known as <b><i>Stingy Jack Pumpkin Ale</i></b>. Apparently, the name was changed due to a disagreement with a winery with a similar name. Which ever name you recognize this pumpkin ale by, Lavery says that it was named after the Irish legend of the Jack O Lantern. It's brewed with Pumpkins and Spices. Subtle spicing ensures you can enjoy more than one pint per session. It's a drier version of your standard pumpkin ale, not "cloyingly" sweet. Lavery says that it has a nice toasty/biscuity flavor from American pale ale malt, slight hop bitterness from Northern Brewer and uses the Lavery house yeast blend that leaves slightly fruity esters.<br />

<br />Lavery Brewery is an American craft brewery that "feels comfortable bouncing across brewing traditions and styles." They like traditional beers as much as they like extreme beers and try to walk a fine line between the two. They refer to themselves as a Pennsylvania-style craft brewery.<br /><br />Lavery Brewing Company was founded in 2009 by husband and wife Jason & Nicole Lavery. Jason Lynch joined the brewing quest in 2010 to build their 10 barrel production brewery. Born and raised around Erie, PA, they are excited to bring something new and dynamic to the local beer culture - Brewing Innovative Ales in Small Batches!<br /><br />Lavery's is pronounced 'Lav-ry' not 'Lave ry', a soft 'a' in the middle. Similar to 'have', not 'gave' according the brewery.<br />
<br />
We've offered you many pumpkin beers on tap and in the bottles from the popular Pumking to some other less well-known but tasty pumpkin beers. Lavery says that folks enjoy this one because it is not too sweet or spicy. What do you think? What's been your favorite pumpkin beer at the Inn?

Ryan Diviney is<span class="text_exposed_show">
the son of my college roommate (Ken Diviney) in Clarion. He was
brutally beaten by two strangers while he was a student at WVU. This
happened over four years ago and he continues to need continual care,
medications, surgeries, etc., much of which is not covered by insurance.
His life, and that of his entire family, has been irreparably altered.
The Diviney family's lives have been dramatically changed forever, but I
cannot sit by on the sidelines and not help my friend. We've done so
much good for Ryan in the past three years through the Ride For Ryan and
I'm looking for your generous help again this year."</span></span></span><br />

<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Join us for a delicious four course meal with beer pairings. Chris is researching and preparing a menu to out do the last one (if you can believe that!) and you'll get to try at least five different types of Yards Beers. One of them will be a hard to get special edition beer. We will be joined by a rep from Yards who will explain each beer with us and share really interesting stories about the various recipes. You'll be surprised to learn how the founding fathers were among Yard's inspirations.<br />
<br />
Space is limited and our last beer dinner sold out in less than a month, so don't drag your feet or you may lose your seat. To register, visit our website <a href="http://www.franklininn.net/specialevents.htm">www.franklininn.net</a>. <br />

Try our new Diamond Margarita. </b><br />
<br />
Our Diamond Margarita is made with Maestro Dobel, the one and only Diamond Reposado on the market. This special tequila is created by combining
Reposado, Anejo, and Extra-Anejo tequilas together and aging them in
matured Hungarian White Oak barrels. It is filtered resulting in an unusually clear reposado which is exceptionally smooth.<br />
<br />
Named after its founder (Dobel is his abbreviated name – Juan <u>Do</u>mingo
<u>Be</u>ckmann <u>L</u>egoretta) the tequila is sourced from
single estates and is distilled from 100% blue agave and bottled in
Jalisco, Mexico. Each bottle of Dobel<sup>™</sup> Tequila is
double-distilled, Dobel<sup>™</sup> Tequila is recognized for its
superior smoothness and iconic packaging which includes a stopper
and a modern twist on a vintage apothecary-style bottle, a heavily
embossed bottle whose design is inspired by the laboratory sample
bottles used by the distillery’s Maestro Tequileros (Master
Distillers).<br />
<br />
At the Franklin Inn, our Diamond Margarita features Maestro Dobel, Grand Marnier, and organic blue agave nectar.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3534925692339482496.post-60994515098900845292014-04-04T16:33:00.002-04:002014-04-04T16:33:55.479-04:00Tequila of the Month: Cabo Wabo<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>The April Tequila of the Month is Cabo Wabo. </b><br /><br />Cabo Wabo Tequila was born in 1996 on the back roads of Guadalajara by legendary musician and tequila aficionado, Sammy Hagar. After searching for a tequila exceptional enough to serve inside his cantina in Cabo San Lucas, Sammy partnered with a tequila-making family with over 80 years of experience. Today, the agave used to make Cabo Wabo Tequila is grown, cultivated and harvested by this same family.<br />

In Mexico it is the <i>Día de San Valentin</i>, or more commonly: <i>El Día del Amor y la Amistad</i>, the "day of love and friendship." People commonly give flowers, candies and balloons to their romantic interest, but it's also a day to show appreciation for friends in Mexico. It's a time for people to show appreciation to the people they care about. Bring your sweetie or your pal to the Franklin Inn for great food and
some good conversation, because according to a Mexican Proverb,
"Conversation is food for the soul."<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: red;"><b> </b></span></span></span><br />

<span class="userContent">February's featured tequila is the multi-award winning, El Mayor. In Spanish it means "the greatest." This 100% Agave Premium Tequila has been produced by the Gonzalez family using traditional methods for 125 years. Master Distiller, Rodolfo Gonzãlez, is the third generation to oversee the family's agave growing estate in the Highlands of Jalisco. Read more about product on the their website: <a href="http://elmayor.com/">http://elmayor.com/.</a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="userContent"><br /> </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="userContent">Gonzãlez says that El Mayor is the </span>"smoothest ultra premium tequila known to man." What do you think? Come give a try at the Inn today. Compare it in a flight (including the Blanco, Resposado, and Anejo). Enjoy it in a margarita, of course. Sip slowly on its own <span class="userContent">as Gonzãlez</span> recommends. Or, check out our drink menu. Chris has come up with three speciality drinks, one for each type of tequila.</div>

What does this have to do with the Franklin Inn? Not much, except I thought
you might benefit from this group too. Open house details are at the end of this post.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FiWmMe_56g8/UuJ9AOSyp-I/AAAAAAAACAE/KeJYMKs-Izc/s1600/290.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-FiWmMe_56g8/UuJ9AOSyp-I/AAAAAAAACAE/KeJYMKs-Izc/s1600/290.png" height="200" width="200" /></a></div>
Over the last 13 or so years, I have enjoyed our conversations via
Facebook, Twitter, this blog, <a href="http://www.rmgmail.com/web/pcf/2n/3" target="_blank">eInnSider email updates</a> and our conversations at the
restaurant. This is where I am comfortable. Public speaking....that's a
different<span class="textexposedshow"> story. Speaking in front of more than a
small group...not what I want to do! It happens only when I have to or am
forced to but I rarely volunteer. I forget what I'm going to say, use the
wrong words, think of the things that "I should've said" afterwards,
etc. I think this lack of confidence in my oral
communication skills hinders my effectiveness in both my professional and
volunteer work. Over the years, I've wanted to work on my speaking
skills....one day...when I had time....until then I "delegate" public
speaking to others who I feel are better at it. </span><br />
<br />
<span class="textexposedshow">Well, a member of the Inn Group (<a href="http://inngroupnetworking.com/" target="_blank">the networking group that
meets at the Franklin Inn</a>), Michelle Hall, invited me to her newly formed
Cranberry High Noon Toastmasters this past Summer. She is the club's president, so I made the time and went to
take a peek. Guess what? I loved it and I now attend regularly.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="textexposedshow">I have met wonderful people, learned so much from listening
to the other speakers (who are at various levels of speaking ability), and even
worked up the nerve to give three speeches of my own. These speeches were met
with encouragement and great tips to build upon. Since the meeting is only an hour long, its easy to fit in my schedule too.</span><br />
<br />
<span class="textexposedshow">There are a lot of "I"s in my writing
above because I personally am gaining from my Toastmasters experience. Toastmasters might be a great opportunity for <b><i>you</i></b> to also equip
yourself with tools to become a better communicator, speaker, and leader. Why
don't you come to the Cranberry High Noon Toastmasters OPEN HOUSE meeting and
take your own peek? And, then you can come to the Franklin Inn for lunch or a
margarita afterwards. Bring a friend (to both places!). </span><br />

Then this event is for you. </b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">We
are excited to be hosting our first beer dinner at the Franklin
Inn Mexican Restaurant on Sunday, February 16th at 4pm. Seats are only $45 for a delicious homemade four course meal with beer pairings.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A special four
course menu is being created in-house that will pair
perfectly with selections from Victory Brewing Company. The meal will, of course, have a
Mexican influence and use the fresh homemade ingredients that Franklin
Inn customers love but there will be an additional inspiration: Victory
Beer. Chris shared our menu proposal with the representative from Victory who then told Chris that the menu he is creating is "spot on." Here's an advanced peek: The fourth course includes John's homemade ice cream which features a Victory beer. Stay tuned for more information on the meal. Yesterday I was able to sample (I know....I know...life is tough for me) some of the menu items that Chris is working on perfecting for you. They were delicious. I can't wait for you to taste them too.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Along with the food comes the beer! There will be a free reception beer before we get started and then you'll have the opportunity to taste four more 8 oz. beers from Victory Brewing Company. A
representative from Victory, Bob Gera, will be at this dinner to walk us
through the food and beer pairings. Bob will also answer your brew
questions. You'll even get to take home a free Victory Pint Glass as a
souvenir. </span><br />

We hope you can join us and bring a few friends. Seats are selling fast. We were half sold out a week ago. Please reserve your spot asap.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Hint! Hint! This also makes a great Valentine's Day Gift for the hop-lover in your life.</span><br />

We
continue to be blessed by the
opportunity to be your neighborhood restaurant. We've
made wonderful memories together. I "married" the restaurant over 16
years ago, but many of you, and some of our staff, have been with the
Inn even longer. You may have grown up with the Inn. A lot of our
area's teens landed their first job at the Inn. One of my favorite
testimonials is from a child who wrote me, "I have loved the Franklin
Inn
all my life."We've had a lot of celebrations together: Birthdays,
Marriage Proposals, Anniversaries, New Jobs, Retirement Parties, and
more. We look forward to many more great times together. Hope to see you on Wednesday.<br />

<br />
Dobel™ Tequila is one of the United States’ fastest growing ultra-premium tequilas. Named after its founder (Dobel is his abbreviated name – Juan Domingo Beckmann Legoretta) the tequila is sourced from single estates and is distilled from 100% blue agave and bottled in Jalisco, Mexico. Each bottle of Dobel™ Tequila is double-distilled, matured in Hungarian White Oak barrels, and filtered for exceptional smoothness and clarity. Dobel™ Tequila is recognized for its superior smoothness and iconic packaging which includes a stopper and a modern twist on a vintage apothecary-style bottle, a heavily embossed bottle whose design is inspired by the laboratory sample bottles used by the distillery’s Maestro Tequileros (Master Distillers). <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-q5fbynMed_k/UqJV7HMooHI/AAAAAAAAB9o/saKkp-MscUw/s1600/tumblr_mrydes9JPn1rsdwcwo1_500.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-q5fbynMed_k/UqJV7HMooHI/AAAAAAAAB9o/saKkp-MscUw/s320/tumblr_mrydes9JPn1rsdwcwo1_500.png" width="198" /></a><br />
Enjoy it in a margarita if you wish but all the reviews say that you'll enjoy sipping it even more. "Enjoy your Maestro Dobel slowly and realize that every sip has been years in the making."<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px;">According to the company, "Avión</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt;"> Tequila is crafted using our exceptional </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px;">Avión</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt;"> Agave, which is grown at the highest elevations in Jalisco, Mexico. The unique </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px;">Avión</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt;"> flavor is achieved through using only special cuts of the </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px;">Avión</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt;"> Agave
plant and then slow-roasting the agave at lower temperatures to protect
the natural flavors. The final step is our proprietary ultra-slow
filtration process, which creates a surprisingly smooth taste. Maybe
that is why the judges at the world's most prestigious spirits
competition voted, in a blind taste test, </span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px;">Avión</span><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt;"> to be the World's Best Tasting Tequila. "</span></div>
