Reopening early October!

Sorry to say if you want to see the sunflowers blooming,
you’ll just have to come over just to see the flowers. And not pick up any bread or treats. 😞

Sad to have missed the last two weeks in the bakery due to smokey skies, happy to be having an extended break to host visiting family and to have some fun adventures.

I will continue to drop scones at Sprout in Marysville from time to time.

Happy summer, everyone. 😘

No fire 😕

The oven is in rest mode: unfortunately I am not baking this week because of the wildfire evacuation alert. There is no danger in lighting the oven, the fire is totally contained, but the optics are a bit tricky. (Especially since I have a neighbour who keeps tabs on all my perceived misdemeanours). I don’t need to be adding more smoke to the air at this time.

Stay tuned. My plan was to take August and September off, but I may change plans based on how the fire/smoke situation play out.

New granola flavour! Cranberry-Orange-Chocolate, the breakfast of champions. It’s definitely my favourite now.
So, let’s talk about this granola for a minute. My friends Sam and Dan sell a lot of it for me, and I sell it too on Wednesdays when I’m open. People comment often that they really like the flavour and I will let you into a little secret: it’s all about the quality of the ingredients. The oats are organic, not chemically pasturized, and grown in Creston. (That’s our back yard, folks). The nuts and dried fruit are mostly organic and I buy them from out of Armstrong, BC. The folks at Rancho Vignola are the real deal. It’s a family-owned business and they source high-quality and fresh nuts and dried fruits. I have been ordering from them for over 20 years, it started as a group of foodie friends in Wells doing bulk orders once a year. I have NEVER been even slightly disappointed, everything is delicious and the customer service is top notch. Guess what? Stuff costs more. Guess what else? It’s better. And, they have great sales that a person can really take advantage of.

This week’s menu:

Sourdough breads:
Holey Hannah - French-style bread
Cracked Kamut - hearty, healthy and tasty
Roasted Garlic and Potato - yum. 😋

Dill Focaccia - thanks to Sarah for the amazing dill!
