New owners at Blithe Spirit
BY MELD A McELROY
Last Saturday was an extremely
successful day for the Blithe Spirit
Tea Room’s new proprietors - Gary
and Sheilla Wallace, formerly of
Toronto.
Sheilla is a member of a family
experienced in culinary art. Her
grandmother was a dietician for
years for the Board of Education in
Toronto.
A distinctive feature this year in
the dining room is additional china
dishes which have belonged to four
generations in Sheilla’s family.
Sheilla says she loves to bake.
On the dessert menu last Saturday
were chocolate and lemon cheese
cake - her specialty, apple crisp
with whipped cream, rhubarb
custard pie, and two kinds of
muffins - fresh blueberry and
banana chocolate chip. For lunch,
one had a choice from three
entrees: fresh turkey salad with
pineapple and walnuts; plough
man’s lunch consisting of assorted
cheeses, white turkey breasts,
green tossed salad and bread and
butter; and tuna on brown bread
with coleslaw.
During the remainder of the
summer and the fall, on the light
lunch menus will appear a wide
variety of nutritious foods, for
Sheilla believes that * ‘variety is the
spice of life.”
After-theatre dessert and coffee
will be served from 10:30 p.m.
When asked about the Wallace’s
first impressions of the village,
Sheilla was quick to reply that they
have found not only their guests
but everyone they have met so far
courteous and gracious.
She added, ‘‘We have been
overwhelmed by the generosity of
the business people who have, with
words, flowers and gifts, made us
feel welcome in Blyth.
