Rebeccas Saucedo is our baker and sweet-maker. And, as Fall rolls in, she is turning her talents to tasty tempting treats made with pumpkin.

 For a salad for Mrs. Ritter’s birthday party, she stir-fried some pumpkin cubes till softened, added some salted chile powder and popped those puppies onto some peppercress greens with raisins and pine nuts with a basic vinaigrette.  For Sunday Champagne Brunch, last Sunday, she made a pumpkin cake roll filled with sweetened cream cheese.  Looked fantastic.  Tasted even better. 

 She says she has some great pumpkin recipes lined up for October so do drop in and ask what Rebecca has cooked up in the back.  Now, if you do that, be prepared.  The employee’s face will freeze with shock.  How do you know about Rebecca and what she’s got in back?  It’s like McDonald’s secret sauce….you should not know what it is.

 But, just ask and – who knows – maybe the cupboard is bare that day OR…..

you get to share a tasty culinary treat perfect for a cool evening in Mesilla.  Especially with our St. Henri’s Blend of Seattle’s Best Coffee.
