PERFECT ORDER
AT JEANIE BEAN & FAMILY
MARCH 20, 2022
JEANIE BEAN & FAMILY IS A COUNTRY STORE SERVING BREAKFAST AND LUNCH RIGHT AT THAT FUNNY INTERSECTION IN CLINTON CORNERS.
JEANIE BEAN (WHO RAN THE STORE FOR MANY YEARS) IS BRITISH AND SO THE STORE IS STOCKED WITH IMPORTED TREATS: BRITISH TEA, CONDIMENTS, SNACKS, CANDY, AND GIFTS. WE BUY SOME OF OUR FAVORITE CANDIES HERE.
ONCE WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE AT THE REGISTER WHEN A FRESH TRAY OF MANDARIN ORANGE MUFFINS CAME OUT OF THE OVEN AND WE VERY MUCH HOPE THAT HAPPENS AGAIN.
THE STANDARD BREAKFAST SANDWICHES ARE VERY GOOD BUT WE LIKE TO GET THESE:
THE DEXTER (2 EGGS, CORNED BEEF, KRAUT, SWISS, MUSTARD, RUSSIAN DRESSING)
AND/OR
THE WORKMAN’S WRAP (SCRAMBLED EGGS, 2 MEATS, CHEESE, PEPPERS, ONIONS, HOMEFRIES)
WE USUALLY COME HERE FOR BREAKFAST BUT WE HAVE HAD THEIR LUNCH SANDWICHES AND WE DO VOUCH FOR THEM BEING GOOD! THEIR MENU IS NOT LARGE BUT IT HAS EVERYTHING WE WANT FROM A SANDWICH MENU—ALSO BURGERS, FISH & CHIPS, CHICKEN TENDERS, AND SPECIALS.
BRITISH CANDY TO BUY WHILE YOU’RE IN THE STORE (WE KEEP ALL OF THESE IN OUR FREEZER):
CRUNCHIE (A CHOCOLATE BAR WITH A “HONEYCOMB” CENTER)
CURLY WURLY (CARAMEL LATTICE COVERED WITH MILK CHOCOLATE)
FLAKE (AN UNUSUALLY CRUMBLY AND FLAKY MILK CHOCOLATE BAR)
LION WHITE (WE KNOW EVERYONE ELSE HATES WHITE CHOCOLATE BUT FOR THE FEW OTHERS WHO ENJOY IT—A WHITE CHOCOLATE BAR WITH CARAMEL, WAFERS, AND CRISPY CEREAL)
MILKYBAR (MORE WHITE CHOCOLATE, SORRY EVERYONE—AVAILABLE AS A BAR OR AS LITTLE “BUTTONS” IN A TUBE)

WHILE YOU’RE AT IT: HARKER HOUSE WINE AND SPIRITS IS RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET AND OPENS AT NOON MOST DAYS. THEY’RE ONE OF THE MORE INTERESTING WINE SHOPS AROUND. WE BOUGHT AN OVERSIZED BOTTLE OF YETTI AND THE KOKONUT B’ROSÉ (BAROSSA ROSÉ) AT HARKER HOUSE TO BRING TO THANKSGIVING THIS YEAR (16 PEOPLE) AND IT WAS A VERY GOOD DECISION!
