Sourdough Cinnamon Roll Scones Owl & Turtle Bookshop Cafe today (Wednesday 10/14) - perfect for this foggy day!

Fermented. Organic grain. Delicious and (more) nutritious.

Recipe adapted from Derrick & Beth - immense gratitude, always, for the generosity of this community - from one coast to another!

Wow! What a day! I’ve been attending Maine Organic Farmers ‘s Common Ground Country Fair since I was little - but it hits differently now knowing a number of the incredible, hard working makers who pour their hearts and souls into bringing their products to The Fair. It is an absolutely monumental effort to be a vendor, so the very least I can do is offer a teeny tiny bit of nourishment - in sourdough style of course! We saw all our favorites and many many more. Until next year friends! fieldsfieldsblueberries Popped!

This was a special cake - one I’d been dreaming up since having the peach & thyme focaccia fikamaine this summer

Vanilla sourdough sponge filled with house-made local peach jam and fermented crumble, covered in a thyme infused browned butter buttercream.

I’m hooked on herb infusions now - what should I bake up next?

I’m always so honored when people invite me to contribute to their special celebrations. In the past 10 days I’ve made cakes for a wedding, an elopement and multiple birthdays.

This one called for a little extra celebration and happiness - so what better than confetti coated with an explosion of colorful flowers.

Cheers to celebrations of all types, every day!

PSA! No pre-orders next week! But there WILL be sourdough treats Owl & Turtle Bookshop Cafe on Wednesday and Thursday, and the fan favorite Avocado Toast on my organic sourdough Buttermilk Kitchen at Marriners on Friday - so you can still eat sourdough and shop local.

Next pre-order drops on Sunday 8/30 for pickup on Friday 9/4.

The foundation of my weekly pre-order menu are long fermented, organic grain, sourdough classics:

✨ bread - classic, seeded, and 50/50 whole wheat
✨ bagels - hand shaped, honey boiled
✨ cookies - dark chocolate chip sea salt, and ginger molasses
✨ Wild Maine blueberry muffins

As a one woman bakery, I’m learning that a limited menu allows me to meet demand, nourish my community and care for my family, while maintaining some semblance of sanity.

But rest assured - I get bored easily, so keep an eye out for specials, reach out if you ever need a (sourdough) celebration cake, and stop by Owl & Turtle Bookshop Cafe on Wednesdays and Thursdays for baker’s choice (sourdough) treats.

Pre-orders open at 10am on Sundays and closes Wednesday, or upon selling out.

Sometimes accidents make people happy.

This week I accidentally made my seeded loaves whole wheat. Normally they are 90% organic white bread flour and 10% organic whole wheat flour. But I did the opposite and didn’t notice until mixing - oops! So everything was off - but I had to role with it and hope for the best (and offer refunds anyone who was disappointed).

The result was a denser, nutty, tangier loaf - almost like a traditional seeded rye. Perfect alongside salad on the most gorgeous of Maine summer evenings.

Guess I’ll have to replicate and add it to the menu….perhaps baked in a loaf pan…

Grateful for my loyal, lovely and understanding customers who support and encourage me - one loaf at a time.

That morning light gets me every time ✨

Organic grain and long fermented. Tummy friendly and delicious. Hand shaped, (local) honey boiled, and fresh baked every Friday.

I haven’t stopped thinking about focaccia for the last few weeks - specifically the peach thyme focaccia from Fika down in S**o. So today is the day for my sourdough version - it’s light, airy and buttery - studded with fresh peaches and thyme from the garden.

There are a handful of slices today (Wednesday 8/13) Owl & Turtle Bookshop Cafe (along with blueberry muffins and chocolate chip cookies) - I hope you enjoy - and rest assured, there will be more focaccia in the future!

As always, everything is made with organic grains and long fermented.

For a moment, a day or a lifetime. As an interest, a hobby, a passion and/or career. Doing what you love *is* an act of resistance.

As we see the world around us break, and systems made to oppress - to turn creative beings (humans) into cogs to serve a world that doesn’t serve us in return - it is clear that we *need* to return to acting with intention, thought and care. We need to be in community, nourish, feed and support each other. We must speak up and out against injustice. We *must* find joy (even little glimmers). And then find some more. And some more.

Doing what you love (and helping others do the same) is an act of resistance.

We cannot solve the worlds’ problems with the systems that created them in the first place. So, pick up that paint brush, get your hands in some dough, tend that neglected garden, read that book, learn or play that instrument, sing that song, visit that neighbor - do it, and do it again, and with intention and with no.other.reason than because it *feels* good.

And by the way, I’m saying all this to myself as much as to you.
