Spent the weekend and a good chunk of the past two days stripping, scraping and sanding the existing service counter cabinet so we can stain and seal it to match the rest of the espresso bar. (4th pic). What a pain in the butt! I'll try n get it finished up this week so we can keep this ishtshow moving forward, but the mental burn out is real. Still need to get the wall closed up and re-inspected so we can mount the cabinets and start tile work. Still need to get furniture and art up, menu design and get the espresso machine hooked up and tested. Still a mountain to conquer and miles to go before I sleep. 😵‍💫

My version of a country sour. 50% whole wheat (30% joaquin oro from Eck Farms / 20% CM khorasan) and 50% CM ABC+. Hydration around 83%ish. Usually I like to keep my country at 40% ww but I wanted to push the Joaquin Oro a bit more to see how the dough would hold up using a new-to-me grain. Worked out wonderfully! I'll probably hold back on the H20 a touch though, not quite as thirsty as the local Hollis or CM Yecoro Rojo I had been using.

Stoked to try some new red from Eck Farms in next week's bake.

Nettle garlic scape for the weekend bakeI love this bread but I only have a little bit of dried nettles left so maybe one more round in a few weeks but that'll be it for the season.

Heads up I won't be at Farmer's Mkt for a couple weeks as I need to finish up the buildout at the cafe so I can HOPEFULLY open this October for some soft opening popups. I'll update here with any more market announcements.

Have a great weekend everyone and be good to each other!
