Morning Glory Bread

10/16/2026

This morning was an adventure. And accordingly, I have made a great number of very important decisions. They are as follows:

1. The kitchen requires a bookshelf. The green bookshelf does not, however, require a kitchen. Its shifty behavior is suspect, as is its ongoing feud with the cookie jar.
2. I was, in a former life, tied to a printing press somehow.
3. The art of bookbinding is actually the most amazing culmination of human skill I have ever observed.
4. I should have made more bread yesterday and must now prepare for the lunchtime revolt that lies ahead. Now where is that helmet and shield….
5. I have no idea where to put that green bookshelf and, therefore, shall permit it to reside in the kitchen on a temporary basis if and only if it exhibits proper behavior and plays nicely with the cookie jar.
6. My tortilla press is now a printing press.
7. My children have no concept of time. No. My children have an advanced understanding of time and are fully aware that it is all an illusion. Well played, children….
8. My desk is covered with art for the first time in approximately 20 years. I must be vigilant in keeping it this way indefinitely.
9. I must create a recipe book that, in itself, is a piece of art. Written, illustrated, bound, and produced by hand. And I must invite the Morning Glory Bread community to share recipes and stories to be included. It will be a special place of inspiration for us all.
10. Dishwashers are the enemy.

More on that recipe book coming soon 🥰

We had so many requests last week for extra breads and pastries, so this week we’re adding a few loaves of bread and some outstanding pastries to the shelf for purchase on Sunday or Monday (no pre order required). Stop by any time between 10:00 and 5:00 on Sunday or between 8:00 am and 7:00 pm on Monday. Open until we sell out!!

Thank you to everyone who joined me at last nights class! I hope you are all enjoying a nice warm loaf of bread and feeling proud!

The fellowship is assembling, my friends. Are you in?

PS: If you’re ever wondering how to find the world’s most inspiring and special people…start a book club and make it endlessly quirky. Apparently that works.

Our menu is updated for the upcoming week! And we are EXCITED about so many things!!!

1. Soft pretzels. Traditional Salted AND Hot Honey
2. Madeleines. Beautifully packaged and available in varieties of six seasonal flavors.
3. MONDAY PICK UPS!!!! That’s right, folks. Turns out being absolutely demolished by the demand of the farmers market—and rising to the challenge every time—has given us the opportunity to see our capacity is new and creative ways. Adding Monday is the just first step in a sequence of REALLY exciting things to come. I could only tell you about these things with jazz hands, though, and jazz hands aren’t possible in written form…so another time. 😆 What I will say is that I’m truly elated to embark on big things while making my health (and sanity) a priority. And your love and care, which is always in abundance and I am so grateful for, has helped to shift my focus accordingly. I am so thankful to all of you.

One seat left!!!

Back when snickerdoodle cookies became very popular among vendors at the farmers market, I took them off my menu and searched for something more unique. I was reminded of madeleines. Refined, dainty, whimsical, and full of possibilities. I wasn’t sure how to fit them into the already overwhelmed oven rotation at the time and I also couldn’t find a non-toxic pan for them. But here we are now with time and space and an open mind about baking vessels (shape, not quality).

I’m excited to share that sourdough madeleines will be coming to our menu next week. When we offer them, which will be intermittently, they will be prepared in a seasonal variety of flavors, highlighting the beauty of the Valley, in cute little boxes of 6. I fancy them a sweet little treat for yourself or someone you care about (friends, neighbors, teachers) and am SO looking forward to baking these through the holidays.
