Innkeepers Peter and Tamar Sharp
Having just returned from Atlanta after attending our annual Professional Association of Innkeeper's Conference, our heads are spinning with all that we learned. Just as your businesses are moving at the speed of light, the same is true for those of us in the hospitality industry. Yet with all that is changing in our world, it's refreshing to know that our Inn's provide a respite from the stress of the day-to-day mayhem. Our guests can unwind and be pampered - in Sophia's Restaurant, nomiSpa or reading a book on the porch in a rocking chair. They can have genial conversations with other Inn guests or ourselves, or just enjoy each other's company. After all, Inns are more than a place to stay, they are a place to experience and create memories.
Hope to see you soon at the Fairview! |

Get to Know Our Staff
Fluff Sharp
House Dog & Queen of the Castle
This month's featured staff member is a 9 year old four legged furry bundle of loving energy. Fluff, a Chinese Crested Powder Puff just loves working in the front office with the girls. She knows each Fairview Inn staff member and howls with joy upon greeting them. Most of you are probably familiar with the Chinese Crested breed, Fluff's hairless counterpart. They are bare all over except on their head/feet and ears. Fluff, a Powder Puff, is the same breed but has a white curly coat and weighs about 13-15 lbs, depending on how much she is snacking.
Her hobbies: napping, playing fetch and eating. (it's a dogs life!)

Sophia's Restaurant at
the Taste of Mississippi
A much-anticipated event in the Jackson area, Stewpot's Taste of Mississippi: Homegrown Hunger Relief offers culinary delights from more than 45 area restaurants, a live and silent auction, and live music by Pryor and the Tombstones and Vicksburg musician Ralph Miller. Every year, the event is held at Highland Village, a premier outdoor shopping center in Jackson. All proceeds from Taste of Mississippi will benefit Stewpot Community Services, whose mission is to provide for the needs of the poor, elderly, and disabled in Jackson's metro area. In 2008, the event raised more than $112,000 for Stewpot's 17 ministries.
Sophia's Chef, Gary Hawkins prepared Asian boneless short ribs with a jasmine rice. They were a favorite among guests and we hope to add them to the menu soon!
