10 Fitch - Secret To Sparkling Clean Coffee Carafes 20 Oct 2014, 2:09 pm
Here's 10 Fitch's Speedy Magic MethodHave you ever tried to remove the coffee stains from the inside of your coffee carafe? We have spent lots of time and elbow grease on ours but recently discovered a MAGIC method that is virtually elbow grease free and has worked wonders on all of our carafes, including the stainless Bunn coffee maker carafe that we brew coffee in every morning (not shown) and one that we could not get the burnt on black coffee out of.
All you need to perform this magic trick at home is -
- dirty carafes
- dishwasher tabs (we like Finish)
- enough boiling water to fill carafe
- about an hour

10 Fitch Inns Killer Trick To Remove Greasy Oily Stains 20 Oct 2014, 10:01 am
Abracadabra! Greasy Oily Stains Disappear Like Magic!Have you ever gotten an oily, or greasy stain on a favorite shirt or, ::gasp:: on an upholstered piece of furniture and had to throw it out or in the case of furniture, try and strategically "hide" the stain with a throw pillow or by flipping a cushion? Well I sure have, lot's and lot's of times, so that is why I am seriously so excited to share with you this 10 Fitch Innsider Secret!
But first let me tell you about our red couch because I think you will have a greater appreciation for the "magic" that I'm going to share with you once I do.
The couch is a super comfy, red sofa that is a focal point of Equestrian Suites living room. It looks great in the room and our guests love it. The problem is that our guests also enjoy things like chocolate and cheese fondue, antipasto & cheese plates and entire dinners in their room while sitting on this couch so it does get pretty dirty and unfortunately, since it is all one solid color, with no pattern and no texture, ANYTHING you get on it sticks out like a sore thumb. To make matters worse, the fabric is such that the red color actually comes off and leaves a lighter area if you try and spot clean, even with just plain water and a clean cloth. Needless to say, keeping this sofa clean and fresh looking has been, well, shall I say… a challenge.
There are two loose cushions on the back and two on the seat, which the red covers zip off of so, early on in our new venture as innkeepers, after we discovered some pretty nasty looking grime on the cushions, we decided to try running the cushions through the washing machine. I was terrified that they would fall apart or end up pink or shrink and not fit back on the cushions and I was soooo relieved when that did not happen but I have felt the same terror each of the 6 plus times that we have washed them since! The washings have faded them some and in the right light you can detect a slight color difference between the cushions and the rest of the couch so the last time we were forced to wash the covers I thought, "Well, I don't think we are going to be able to do that again. The next step is to either have the couch reupholstered or buy a new one."
So my heart sank the other day when I went into Equestrian and began cleaning after our guests checked out and on the arm of the couch was a very large, very dark spot from something obviously liquid. I felt it and couldn't tell what it was but I was hoping it was just water and that when it dried it wouldn't leave too bad a water stain.
I went about my business stripping the bed, starting the laundry and cleaning the bathroom and came back some time later to inspect the stain and it was still there, just as dark and as big as it was before. I realized then that this was not water. I felt it again and looked at my fingers. Hmmmm… I was guessing it was something oily. There was no way I could unzip the fabric from the arm of the couch and wash it in the machine so I didn't know what to do.
Then I remembered reading somewhere, probably on Pinterest... btw, if you are not on Pinterest you might be interested to know you can find some of the most helpful DIY tips there, anyway, I heard that you could absorb oily stains on fabric and carpets with corn starch and I thought, "Ok, I guess we'll give that a try."
So, downstairs I trotted to the kitchen and retrieved the container of cornstarch and a teaspoon and back upstairs I headed to Equestrian and the offending stain then I proceeded to take a spoonful and dump it on the arm of the couch over the stain and then I smooshed the cornstarch into the fabric with the back of the spoon. I worked it in for a minute or two and then left it as I finished what I had to do in the rest of the suite. About an hour later I went back with the vacuum and a small brush attachment and vacuumed up the corn starch. I was completely amazed as the cornstarch disappeared and along with it, every trace of that oily stain! Just like magic!
Then I was upset with myself for not having taken photos to prove how great it worked! So guess what? A couple days later, as I was contemplating what Innsider Secret I would share in the October newsletter, I decided to re-create the magic trick and took the photos below :)
Isn't that amazing!? I even tried this on some older stains but the cushion covers had already been through the wash at least once and the cornstarch didn't remove them completely although it did seem to lighten them further.
So, I hope that if you ever spill something oily or greasy on a rug, furniture, or clothing that this Innsider Secret will come to mind so you can give it a try.

10 Reasons We Love The Skaneateles Dickens Christmas (And You Should, Too!) 6 Oct 2014, 4:32 am
Have you started your Christmas shopping yet?It doesn't seem possible but it's that time of year again! With just 79 days left until Christmas it's time to think about your holiday shopping list. And if you have never come to the Finger Lakes to shop for the holidays you might want to consider it because there are so many great shopping opportunities, like Destiny USA, the Waterloo Outlets, as well as shopping at the wineries all along the wine trails. But there is one in particular that I want to tell you about - Dickens Christmas in Skaneateles Village.
Why do we love the Skaneateles Dickens Christmas?
- It's so much fun! Who wouldn't want to come to this charming & beautiful lakeside village to experience an old fashioned Christmas? For the 21st year in a row, from noon until 4PM beginning the Friday after Thanksgiving and continuing every Saturday and Sunday thereafter until Christmas, the Dickens Christmas will take place this year and it is not to be missed!
- Continuing the tradition begun 7 years ago, The World's Smallest Christmas Parade Ever will take place once again on opening day, Friday, November 28th at noon. Charles Dickens and his entourage will head down Fennell Street, turn right onto Jordan Street, then right onto Genesee Street to their grand opening on the porch of the Sherwood House next to the Sherwood Inn at 12:10 pm.
- Dickens interactive theater takes place right on the streets of Skaneateles and you get to participate! That's right! The Dickens Christmas Characters stroll the streets of Skaneateles and you become a part of the show as they perform live right in front of you. Scrooge, the ghosts, Tiny Tim, Oliver Twist, over 50 characters in all, are there. Father Christmas is too!

10 Fitch Luxurious Romantic Inn Charity Fundraiser Successful - September 2014 23 Sep 2014, 1:09 pm
Giving Back To The Community
Three Worthy Not-For Profits Receive Benefits
Years before my life began as an innkeeper, I was a busy wife and mom who had a garage sale every year to clean out old toys, clothes and household items that we were no longer using. It was a lot of work but a lot of fun to get ready for and have this sale every year. As best as I can pinpoint it, the last one I had was probably in 2002 since we moved to Arizona in 2003 and I never had one after that. Eleven years have passed and in that time we added to our memories as well as to our growing collection of "stuff". We spent three years in Arizona and then moved to Kentucky and finally in 2007 we moved back home to New York state and bought 10 Fitch.
"We decided to donate all proceeds to charity and I was very excited to see what God would do as giving back became our focus for having the sale."
Our basement at the inn was filled with box after box after box of items that the movers had packed up in Kentucky and the garage had a huge pile of boxes that I had marked for a garage sale but there was the issue of where and when to have it. You certainly can't have a garage sale taking place when you have guests coming to stay at your quiet, romantic inn! So the boxes stayed piled up and more were added to the piles over the years.
A lot of furniture and things came with the inn when we bought it so many of our own possessions, including a lot of furniture, were in storage for a few years and then that stuff was moved here and some of it used to furnish my moms apartment and the second apartment in a duplex that we bought a few years later. Both of our sons have lived in the duplex and used some of the furnishings that we had stored away. Our eldest son began at University of Rochester this semester so he and our daughter in law moved out of the duplex and moved to Rochester in mid-August. At that point we began making plans for Susan, our new assistant, to move into the apartment as part of her compensation. It was then that the thought to have a tag sale hit me! Why not? Susan wouldn't be moving in until October 1st and the place would be vacant for more than a month. We could have the sale indoors right next door so we wouldn't have to worry about weather and we could take our time setting everything up. We decided to donate all proceeds to charity and I was very excited to see what God would do as giving back became our focus for having the sale. We chose the Pregnancy Care Center of Cayuga County, David's Refuge & Grace Chapel Skaneateles because we have been involved with each organization personally and we believe in their missions and what they are doing to positively impact the lives of others in the surrounding communities.
And so the first week in September we began hauling stuff over to the duplex. Up from the basement it came. Down from the 3rd floor of the inn, where Rodney & I have our quarters, it traveled, and from out of the garage it arrived at the duplex where mom spent an entire week unpacking, sorting and cleaning everything! Here is a picture I took early in the week, this is a TINY bit of what we had in the sale.
I spent the last two nights before the sale marking everything and making and posting signs. In the midst of it all we took care of our guests and ran things at 10 Fitch as usual. Items for the sale filled each room of the duplex including 3 bedrooms and a bath upstairs as well as living room, dining room, kitchen and porch downstairs! We advertised in the local paper and on Craig's List.
Our sale was held on Friday September 19 and Saturday September 20th from 8AM-4PM. Our goal was to raise at least $1000 since we were dividing the proceeds between 3 charities. We had signs up that said, "All Proceeds from this sale are going to charity - Pregnancy Care Center of Cayuga County, David's Refuge & Grace Chapel Skaneateles. Thank you for your support!" We had information about David's Refuge posted next to the signs. Many people commented on what we were doing and we had opportunity to share with them some additional information.
Of course it was a tag sale and people came looking for bargains and we did a lot of dickering. For the most part, I think we gave them what they wanted. We had a lot of great stuff and we really tried to price everything reasonably. The best part of the whole experience for me, besides the money that we raised for the charities, was how many people gave a little more than what was marked on the items they were buying because they understood what we were doing, that it wasn't just a tag sale, it was so much more than that, and they could be a part of it, giving back to the community to and having a positive effect on peoples lives. By the end of the day on Saturday we had reached our goal and raised $1000!

Don't Be Fooled By Hotel's Offering "Bed and Breakfast Packages" 13 Aug 2014, 2:27 pm
Have you noticed the increasing number of hotels now offering some type of "Bed & Breakfast" package?
Don't be fooled into thinking that these packages compare to what a real bed & breakfast offers!
This video about what it might be like if a bed & breakfast offered a "Hotel Package," had me laughing out loud! I think you'll see the humor, as well as truth in it too.
But really, my husband has a saying he's fond of when describing something that is fancied up to look more attractive on the outside but is essentially the same on the inside, "You can put lipstick on a pig but it's still going to be a pig." It is what it is, a pig, and no amount of lipstick is going to change that fact. What you have is a prettied up pig and that is all. No one would mistake a sow wearing lipstick for a beauty queen right?
Then why would anyone think that a hotel "Bed & Breakfast Package" is anything other than a fancied up version of what a hotel would normally offer and not anything comparable to the kind of bed & breakfast package that small inns and B&B's offer to their guests every single day?
Offering a bed to sleep in and some kind of breakfast in a bundled form does not a genuine, authentic, "Bed & Breakfast Package" make!
I can kind of understand why hotels are trying to attract guests and entice them with the suggestion that they will have a bed & breakfast experience at their establishments since more and more people are discovering that bed & breakfasts are a better way to stay. But no matter what you call it, a true bed & breakfast package is only found at a genuine, authentic, one-of-a-kind bed & breakfast, not at a hotel. Why? For sure innkeepers know how to put together some of the most wonderfully romantic and uniquely original and fun packages, with everything from picnic lunches to in-room massages to hot air balloon rides, horseback riding, dinner cruises, golfing, and so much more. But I think the biggest reason many people are becoming B&B converts has less to do with what is offered in a package and more to do with the kind of experience they know they will have when they are there.
It's the genuine care given to the guests during their stay, the love with which hot, delicious, breakfasts are cheerfully prepared and served each morning, it's the warmth, enthusiasm and knowledge of the innkeepers for the area, it's attractions and history, it's the uniqueness of the home, the authenticity, attention to detail and interaction guests will encounter. These are the intangible, non-duplicateable things that a hotel could never offer in a "Bed & Breakfast package".
Hotel "Bed & Breakfast Packages" can offer a bed and they can offer breakfast and throw in a few niceties but make no mistake, it's world's apart from the value and experience that bed & breakfast guests enjoy when they stay at an authentic Bed & Breakfast. Like the pig sporting candy-apple-red lipstick, it is was it is no matter what you call it.
I make you a promise, if you come to the Finger Lakes and stay at our luxurious, romantic bed & breakfast inn, you will encounter no prettied-up piggies here.

10 Fitch Guest Suites Layout 12 Aug 2014, 8:52 pmEven though we have great photos of all our guest suites published online, because each suite is composed of three rooms it is nearly impossible to tell how each suite is laid out just by looking at the photos so I have just added what I hope is going to be a very handy visual to the Guest Rooms page on the 10 Fitch website. I will be placing links to it from each one of the individual suites pages as well so that anyone thinking about booking a stay at our luxurious romantic Finger Lakes bed & breakfast will have an easier time deciding which suite they might like to choose. Thank you to Pat Shea for her questions concerning English Suites layout - it was that email that prompted me to finally get the visual up onto the website. I started working on it over a year ago when another guest mentioned it would be nice to have.
August 12, 2014 - updated and added placement of bathroom fixtures and fireplaces. Also enabled a PDF download. Just click on the image below.

Doug's Fish Fry Skaneateles - An Innkeepers Critique 30 Jul 2014, 8:58 am
Doug's Fish Fry
8 Jordon Street, Skaneateles
open daily 11AM-9PM
If you are coming to the Auburn, Finger Lakes area and you are looking for a great casual place to have lunch or dinner, we highly recommend you check out Doug's Fish Fry. You won't go away hungry for sure but you must save room for ice cream! Mom and I manage to do this by ordering just a fish sandwich without a bun (that's moms there in the photo). No fries, no onion rings or coleslaw or anything else except a drink. Doug's custard is the absolute best around and their Seasonal Sundaes are a real treat! On this particular day we were just too full and skipped the sundae.
Tucked away on Jordon St., in the charming, nearby, lakeside village of Skaneateles, Doug's has been serving up fresh seafood since 1982. Five days a week their seafood is delivered over crushed ice, by truck, from the Boston Fish Pier. No wonder it tastes so good!
Doug's menu of course, features the freshest seafood but for those who aren't fans other choices available are chicken, hot dogs, mac & cheese, & grilled Kielbasa. There are several homemade dipping sauces available to enjoy with your food including a really great tarter sauce.
The fish is a beautiful, mild, flaky, white, cod covered in a light batter and then deep-fried until crisp on the outside. It is the best fried fish I have ever had. Shrimp, scallops, salmon & little steamers are also available. On certain days of the week oysters & clams are also available. Their onion rings are excellent but don't order the fries if you prefer them crispy. Doug's are not. Other items on the menu include seafood chowder, coleslaw and the new addition, Doug's lobster role.
|Are you drooling yet? I am!
Now, as promised, here are the details of my love afai.... er.. um... experience with the aforementioned lobster roll. I had never had a lobster roll before so I'm not quite sure how Doug's compares to others but this one was awesome and I would gladly eat it again and again and again, well, anytime! When I looked at it I wasn't all that impressed. I thought, "Ok, so it's lobster meat on a roll, whoopty doo." Then, completely skeptical, I took a great big bite and let me tell you, it put the whoopty back in my doo! The roll was nice and soft and there was a lovely, buttery, crust on the inside where they had slathered lightly herbed butter on the bread and then grilled it. Nestled inside was just the right size pile of tender, sweet, freshly cooked lobster meat! That's it! There was no need for any other ingredients. The lobster roll is $15 so it is pricey for a sandwich but hey, it's LOBSTER right?
For drinks Doug's offers Pepsi products, milkshakes, and a selection of beer and wine.
We love Doug's and hope that if you come stay with us at 10 Fitch here in Auburn, NY you will drive 10 minutes into Skaneateles village and check out Doug's for yourself. Do me a favor, have a lobster roll for me will ya? :)

June 6th & 7th – "Her" - Auburn Public Theater, 108 Genesee St., Auburn. Joaquin Phoenix stars in Spike Jonze's soulful sci-fi drama about a lonely writer who falls in love with his computer's highly advanced operating system. Theodore Twombly (Phoenix) has built his career on expressing the emotions that others cannot. His job is to pen heartfelt, deeply personal letters to complete strangers based on details provided by the clients of the company he works for, and he has a knack for finding just the right words for every occasion. Meanwhile, reluctant to sign the papers that will finalize his divorce to his childhood sweetheart, depressed Theodore has slowly withdrawn from his supportive social circle, which includes his longtime friend Amy (Amy Adams), herself floundering in a failed marriage. When Theodore purchases a new state-of-the-art computer operating system with the ability to learn and grow with the user, he sits down at his desk and prepares to get his life in order. Adopting the name Samantha (Scarlett Johansson), the perceptive software slowly begins to bring Theodore out of his shell by encouraging him to start dating again, and joining him everywhere he goes. Very quickly, their relationship turns intimate, with Theodore teaching Samantha what it means to feel human and Samantha giving him the strength to walk away from his failed marriage. Things soon get complicated, however, when Samantha's rapidly evolving knowledge base begins to alter the very core of their relationship.

3 Surprising Dark and Dirty Coffee Maker Secrets 2 Jun 2014, 10:35 am
Three Surprising Dark and Dirty Coffee Maker Secrets
What you Don't Know Could Hurt You!
Or at least keep you from enjoying a really great cup of coffee. Your coffee maker, it's been hiding some secrets from you and I'm here to blow the lid off that puppy and reveal to you the dark and dirty truth once and for all! Brace yourself because this is not gonna be pretty but it is necessary to face the truth so that you can do something about it! Don't worry; I'll help you with that too.
- Secret: If you have a drip coffee maker and have been regularly brewing coffee in it for a while I guarantee you that it's dirty even if it looks clean on the outside. Dirty equipment will definitely affect the taste of your Joe, but did you know that it can also impair your brewers operation and can even affect your health?!
- Secret: According to the Specialty Coffee Association of America and the National Coffee Association, the optimal temperature for brewing a great cup of coffee is 197.6 – 204.8F and most popular coffee makers brew within this range. Unfortunately, that may not be hot enough to kill any bacteria. Mold & bacteria love moist, warm environments to grow in which makes your coffee maker an ideal spot to set up shop.
- Secret: If you leave paper filters full of used, wet coffee grounds in the basket until making the next pot of coffee you are inviting bacteria to the party.
Clean The Crud!
- First of all we are going to stop leaving used filters and grounds in the basket until we brew another pot... right? As soon after brewing as possible we are going to remove the used filter and grounds and throw them in the trash. Then we are going to rinse the basket and sit out to thoroughly dry before putting back in the brewer. Once a week you should run the basket through your dishwasher or thoroughly clean it in hot soapy water and again, let dry thoroughly before putting back in the coffee maker.
- You should thoroughly clean your coffee maker a minimum of every 3 months to keep it running properly by removing mineral deposit build-up, and ensure fantastic tasting coffee and avoid illness by cleaning out coffee residue and killing any bacteria.
Here's How - Get Your Brewer In Tip-Top Shape!
- Remove any filter that is in your coffee makers basket.
- Fill the water reservoir in your machine with equal parts regular white vinegar and water solution.
- Run a drip cycle and when the cycle is finished, turn off your coffeemaker but let the hot solution sit in the carafe for 15-30 minutes to remove and scale deposits from the carafe, then discard the solution.
- Finally, run at least three cycles of just clear water through your coffee maker to remove any lingering vinegar residue..
- Lastly, wipe down the exterior of your coffee maker and clean the removable filter basket, permanent filter if you have one and the carafe with hot soapy water and allow all parts to dry thoroughly before putting everything back together.
Now that your coffee maker is all spiffy, inside and out, you should be able to actually taste the difference so go ahead and enjoy some java!
And rest assured that if you come to enjoy a little romantic escape with us at our Finger Lakes Bed & Breakfast we follow this process on our well used and loved Bunn coffee maker so you are sure to enjoy delicious fresh brewed Colombian each morning at 10 Fitch Luxurious Romantic Inn.

With the argument over the pros and cons of multivitamin use raging in Australia following the publication of a series of contradictory studies on the subject, the Complementary Healthcare Council of Australia has welcomed a printed response by four leading nutrition researchers taking the view that supplements are a safe and effective way to achieve the recommended intake of essential nutrients.
Flawed study
The statement, by B Frei, BN Ames, JB Blumberg and WC Willett, which was published in Annals of Internal Medicine, came in response to an editorial published in the same journal last year entitled "Enough is enough: Stop wasting money on vitamin and mineral supplements", which they said "ignored decades of nutrition research and diet monitoring of the US population" to conclude that there is no need to take multivitamins.
"The group of nutrition researchers pointed out that the editorial focused on chronic disease and failed to take into account the beneficial effect of multivitamins, the primary benefit being to meet recommended dietary intakes of essential vitamins and minerals," said Carl Gibson, chief executive of the CHC.
"While the authors refer to the US population in not meeting dietary intake recommendations, here in Australia it has been well established that we, too, don't eat as well as we should.
"The recently published report from the Australian Bureau of Statistics on Australia's eating habits shows that the typical Australian is eating plenty of food but is still starving of quality nutrients."
Australia lagging behind in vitamins
Indeed, based on self-reporting, just 6.8% of Australia's population met the recommended intake of vegetables, while just over half met the recommendations for servings of fruit.
These figures, released in April, also showed that around 4m Australian adults were found to be Vitamin D deficient in 2011-12. Vitamin D is essential for the body to absorb calcium effectively, which is important for bone health and muscle function.
"The authors highlight the role that multivitamins can play in improving general health and decreasing the risk of chronic disease," Gibson added.
"For example, the Physicians' Health Study II, which is the largest randomised clinical trial of a multivitamin supplement conducted to date, showed a statistically significant 8% reduction in total cancer incidence in male physicians."

Dancing Barefoot Lyrics - Patti Smith
Review The Song (4)
she is benediction
she is addicted to thee
she is the root connection
she is connecting with he
here I go and I don't know why
I fell so ceaselessly
could it be he's taking over me...
I'm dancing barefoot
heading for a spin
some strange music draws me in
makes me come on like some heroin/e
she is sublimation
she is the essence of thee
she is concentrating on
he, who is chosen by she
here I go and I don't know why
I spin so ceaselessly,
could it be he's taking over me...
she is re-creation
she, intoxicated by thee
she has the slow sensation that
he is levitating with she ...
here I go and I don't know why,
I spin so ceaselessly,
'til I lose my sense of gravity...
(oh god I fell for you ...)
the plot of our life sweats in the dark like a face
the mystery of childbirth, of childhood itself
grave visitations
what is it that calls to us?
why must we pray screaming?
why must not death be redefined?
we shut our eyes we stretch out our arms
and whirl on a pane of glass
an afixiation a fix on anything the line of life the limb of a tree
the hands of he and the promise that s/he is blessed among women.
(oh god I fell for you ...)

Another Case Of Someone Else Writing The Song | Reviewer: Longtime | 12/15/10
Patti Smith has always been the beneficiary of someone else who could write a song. She's always attached her somewhat dim lyrics to another's hooks and structure. Although she has had her day, and is being overcompensated in the current epoch, the fact remains: She has never written a song without the help of someone else.
Kudos to her to piggyback efforts on the work of others. Although I was a fan of hers way back in the days, I think she's pretty over-rated. Today, her supposedly "great work" sounds tired. Even with all that help from Kral, Sohl, Lenny Kaye, Springsteen and others...
Patti is one of the "Lady Treasures" of rock & roll | Reviewer: Paul White | 8/8/07
Dancing Barefoot is my favorite Patti Smith song. Theyre's so much "going on" there lyrically; she truly does find her righteous space -among women. She gives you so much to think about throughout the song, especially at the end. Not only is she at her best vocally on this album (Wave), the musicianship of the band really helps kick it all up a couple notches. Check out "Frederick" and her cover of "So You Want To Be A Rock & Roll Star" - both excellent!
I think above all else though, I love her concept for the album liner picture which has Patti standing there (I believe with a dove in hand - alas I've misplaced it!!) with this quote from the poet Rainer Maria Rilke which says: "For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation." If that doesn't say it all, I don't know what does. Thanks Patti Smith for reminding us! God bless you!
