Tuesday = City of Lakewood, Washington - Municipal Government Farmersā Market at Fort Steilacoom Park from 2-7 p.m.
Beyond the fresh produce, local craft vendors, and musical entertainment for picnickers beneath large shade trees, there are lots of food trucks to choose from ā with a wide variety of cuisines represented.
I wanted savory vegetarian or fare, so my options were limited, but Memoranda Kitchen had a delicious Grilled Portobello sandwich, and a Panzanella Salad featuring Balloon Roof Baking Company's bread. Yum!
A good trip to the Tacoma Proctor Farmers' Market, indeed. A Bona Fide Potents tonic we havenāt tried yet š«§ a half flat of Sidhu Farms tayberries (wish you could smell them!), and so very many Balloon Roof Baking Company treats š«¶ (Oh, still warm btw, and also fragrant in case the photo isnāt giving you enough information.) We donāt go on a lot of summer vacations, so why not enjoy home? -G
My Grandma Rose 1892-1979 always used FRESH breadcrumbs & FRESH parsley in her meatballs. Local baker & Greengrocer always had them. I can grow the parsleyā¦.the perfect fresh bread was a challengeā¦.until now!

I had my first turkey sandwich in years since going on a low-carb diet for diabetes using Balloon Roof Bakeryās low carb bread. Amazingly tasty & moist!! Pure Heaven! None of the yucky aftertaste or dry consistency that other keto breads have. Bought my husband the Parmesan-black pepper sourdough bread for his turkey sandwich and he said it was really good, too! The crust on the parm-blk pepper was chewy and flavorful. Hopefully theyāll sell other keto baked goods at Proctor Mkt soon.

Picked up some gorgeous loaves of Balloon Roof Baking Company bread from Delightful Neighborhood Market . This one is gochujang pepper and garlic- basically heaven (spice plus garlic š¤¤). While I was at Delightful Neighborhood Market I even got to chat with the person delivering bread- was it the master baker themself? I was too scared to ask, but they had a whole lot of information for me at 8:45am so this stuff is the real deal, made with love and expertise.
I have been following Balloon Roof for a few months on Instagram and I love their posts, they crack me up. Even mentions of cryptocurrency š¤
I have had my eye on their bread for a while now and finally made some time to buy some and do a little photo shoot. I love bread, I eat bread every day and this stuff is delicious plus they have a large variety of delicious flavors to try. PLEASE go follow what theyāre up to!
This shot also features some dried flowers from a bouquet!
