Good morning friends!

In the past 2 years, Bread of Life has grown from a Trunk or Treat idea to offering a few cookies and candies at local markets to a full service sourdough bakery offering a variety of breads, muffins, cookies, scones and sweet rolls at our weeklyy market and ouckup locations.

The support from our community and The Farmers Market At Long Beach has been unfailing and completely amazing. As much as I have enjoyed serving our community and getting to know each of you, this season has come to an end.

Bread of Life is closing and will make its final offering on July 12 at the market at the Town Green. I love you all and hope that you stop by for one last visit. Thank you for a great ride, and I hope to see you along my next adventure!

Greetings, friends! Last week’s return to the market was fantastic! Thank you to all who turned out - I loved catching up and seeing you all again!

Unfortunately, strep and flu have struck the Turner household and I just can’t risk passing that along, so there is no bread for this week.

We also leave next week for MFuge at Berry College - so please keep our youth and chaperones in your prayers for a safe trip that will grow us all closer to God while we serve others.

I’ve included a photo and recipe of the Pastina (aka Italian penicillin) I made today, and it sure did help me to feel better! I wish you the best and hope you have a happy 4th of July!

Happy bake day!

As I’m getting ready for this weekend’s The Farmers Market At Long Beach, I am whipping up some browned butter for our famous Brown Butter Chcolate Chip cookies and our newly added Oatmeal Cream Pies!

I had to share this video with you. I have been eying this beautiful white and gold ribbed cookware set from Thyme&Table. My wonderful hubby surprised me with it (he didn’t even know I had been interested!) and oh, my! It makes browning butter a breeze! It cooks so evenly, and being able to see the actual color changes of the butter solids is a game changer. Goodbye, Teflon anything! I only wish you could smell this heavenly, caramelly aroma that is currently filling the kitchen.

This week, all proceeds from Oatmeal Cream Pies will benefit my daughter’s summer tour with the MS Baptist All State Choir. So y’all come on out, and we’ll see you at the market!
