 This week leads up to one of my favorite weekends of the year---Sister Bay’s Fall Festival.  This is a fantastic three-day event in Sister Bay, Wisconsin, with live music, food, games, activities and much, much more.  Each day this week I will feature ONE Sister Bay property for sale, as well as ONE of the events I am looking forward to for this Fall Festival weekend.    On Friday night, October 17, 2014, I will be at Grasse’s Grill in downtown Sister Bay to listen to some amazing music provided by Wifee and the Huzzband.  I first heard their music last year (talented writing with fantastic vocals), and I was delighted to hear that they will be coming to northern Door County.  In addition to great music, I will also get to enjoy some food from Grasse’s Grill, one of my favorite norther...

Christmas in Door County:  Dining at The Mission Grille in Sister Bay, WI 54234. Last night marked my ten year anniversary of my first Christmas Eve dinner at The Mission Grille, and I thought it was a worthy anniversary for ten years of remembering my first Christmas Eve there. In 2003, we first decided that trying to cook two huge meals inbetween church services and other events was getting rather daunting.  As such, I tentatively proposed something neither my nor my husband's family had ever tried (and likely nary considered).  There were a few local restaurants open on Christmas Eve to serve dinner.  Were we willing to give it a try?   We were.  So in 2003, during a gentle snowstorm, we ate at The Mission Grille during one of its inaugural holiday Christmas Eve dinners.  I remember ...
