New Moon has Opened at the Theaters

Friday, November 20, 2009

"New Moon" premiered last night and the 4 guests that we had venture into Port Angeles to see the movie said it was great.

There are some fun activities happening this weekend. Some "Twilight" related and some not. Our Rainforest Players are appearing in a live production of "The Cupcake Capers." This play was written, produced and directed by a very talented local woman, Liela Kriebel. It plays tonight and Saturday night and also has a matinee performance on Sunday afternoon.

A local Bluegrass band called Loose Gravel will be playing at Peninsula College Saturday evening.

The Quiluete Tribe is hosting an afternoon of native storytelling and dancing at their Tribal Center in LaPush.

The Miller Tree Inn (aka Cullen House) still has a few rooms left for tonight and tomorrow night, so come on over!

A Cullen - ary Vote!

Thursday, November 19, 2009

In honor of election season AND the premier of "New Moon", the guests of the Miller Tree Inn (aka Cullen House) get to vote for which team they belong to by eating cake! If you are a "Team Edward" fan, you get a white cupcake with creamy vanilla frosting. If you are a "Team Jacob" person, then you would take a dark chocolate cupcake with coconut frosting. If you just can't quite make up your mind, then "Team Switzerland" is for you. We have a layer cake with one layer of white cake and one of dark chocolate cake. It is frosted with both the creamy vanilla and the coconut frosting.

Rain Forest Hiking

The entire Cullen Clan are out hiking in the Hoh Rain Forest. It has been rainy and windy for the past couple of days with more predicted for the near future.

Around Forks, everyone is getting excited about the premier of "New Moon" coming up later this week.

All of us at the Cullen House wish everyone a safe and Happy Halloween!

The Cullen House Cat

Thursday, October 29, 2009

Tunny, the Cullen House cat has decided to change favorite sleeping spots, recently. He was almost always on the back of the couch looking out the window at all the Twilight fans. Now, he has taken to sleeping on top of the afghans in the blanket box. He doesn't seem afraid of falling off! We think the change is to keep all of us on our toes looking for him.

Orange Sauce Recipe

Sunday, October 4, 2009

We have been getting lots of requests lately for the recipe for our Orange Sauce. It was a recipe given to me by my aunt, through my grandmother and another aunt. I guess that qualifies it as a family recipe! The orange sauce is good on pancakes, waffles and especially orange croissant french toast.

Orange Sauce

Mix 1/2 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon corn starch
1 cup orange juice.
Cook, stirring until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in 3 Tablespoons of butter.
Serve warm on pancakes, waffles or french toast.

Enjoy!

Relaxing on Esme Island

Thursday, October 1, 2009

The Cullen family retreated to Esme Island after Bella's birthday to relax and get everything together before the next movie comes out in November. Everyone is getting really excited about that.

Stephenie Meyer's Day Re-Cap

Sunday, September 27, 2009

The Forks Forum estimated that somewhere between 1500 - 3000 people were in Forks to experience all of the activities taking place over Stephenie Meyer's Day (Bella's Birthday). The weather was perfect, one sunny day and one overcast day (better for vampire spotting). Hundreds of people dropped by the house to sign our 2009 birthday card and to see the Graduation Cap artwork. We had many happy and excited guests and we think planning has already begun for next year's celebration.
