Hello. My name is Mary and I'm a golf widow.
My hubby is so addicted to the game that I had to make him put in writing that at least one afternoon and one morning every weekend are mine. The man not only plays all summer long, but since a local golf course opened an indoor golf simulator last Fall, he now plays all winter too. Thank you Bay Meadows. NOT.
Honestly, I can't complain. There are worse things that a man could be doing on the weekends. *~} He usually plays on Saturday mornings, quite early and on Sunday afternoons, so Sunday mornings we go out to breakfast. Yesterday was no exception.
One of our favorite places to get our breakfast on is The Chocolate Mill, a fantastic little cafe, bakery and chocolatier, in downtown Glens Falls, NY. Owner/Chef/Certified Master Pastry Chef Frank Vollkommer, started offering up Danish Apple Pancakes (Aebleskivers) on the breakfast menu a couple of years ago, before they became the huge hit that they are right now. (btw, becoming a certified master pastry chef is quite a distinction - there are barely more than a dozen chefs with that designation in the world at present.) So, what does my hubby love almost more than he loves me? Yup. Aebleskivers.
*** Update: Sadly, The Chocolate Mill is now closed. It's a huge loss to our fair city (and our bellies) but we understand that people and businesses sometimes need to move on. Best of luck Chef Vollkommer, wherever you are.
