My friends, I think this week has officially turned into Blueberry Week in my bakery! 🫐

Bread Thursday is coming again, and I’ll be back at the Snohomish Farmers Market with lots of freshly baked organic sourdough breads and a few things I know many of you have been waiting for.

🫐🍞Blueberry - Walnut Sourdough is coming back this week!

This bread has such a lovely balance - the sweetness of blueberries, the richness of walnuts, and that slow - fermented sourdough flavor underneath. It makes a wonderful breakfast bread.

I’m also baking Almond Cream - Blueberry Swirl pastries, because I seem to be on a blueberry roll this week ☺️.

🌶️🧀Pepper Jack - Jalapeño is coming back too - cheesy, a little spicy, and always a good idea if you like bread with a little personality.

Pre-orders are open and encouraged as always.

I’ll keep baking. You keep enjoying summer. 💛

See you on Thursday!

Bread Thursday is around the corner at Snohomish Farmers Market!

And your two favorites are coming back this week:

🍞 Cheddar & Chive - I haven’t baked this one for a few weeks, and I’m happy to bring it back to the market.

🍞 Cinnamon Raisin is back too - perfect for your morning toast.

As always, my breads are naturally and long fermented with sourdough starter - no commercial yeast. I feed my sourdough starter with 100% organic whole grain flour sourced from Bluebird Grain Farms in Washington.

I updated this week's menu and pre-orders are open for Thursday.

SOURDOUGH CLASS UPDATE:
🌸Friday, August 21 - 3 spots left
🌸Friday, September 25 - 7 spots left.

New Sourdough Class dates are open!

Registration link is in the first comment.

WHEN:
🗓️ Friday, August 21 • 6-8 PM
🗓️ Friday, September 25 • 6-8 PM

WHERE:
🏠 Snohomish Senior Center Kitchen (downtown Snohomish)

I’m so happy to share a few photos from my students bakers - seeing them baking at home, caring for their starters, and making beautiful bread in their own kitchens is so exciting!

Thank you so much to everyone who has joined my sourdough classes so far. It has been such a joy to bake, learn, and and solve bread challenges together with you!

These classes are small, hands-on, and beginner-friendly. My goal is to help you understand what you’re seeing, what the dough is telling you, and how to bake amazing bread at home.

I’m also working on Advanced Sourdough classes, hopefully beginning in September. A few people have asked about whole grain breads and einkorn, and I love those ideas. I’d also love to hear what you would like to learn next. You are welcome to comment below or send me a message with your ideas.

If you’re interested in the Advanced Sourdough class, you can also join the waitlist to receive priority registration when those dates are ready. DM me and I will add you to the list.

P.S. Bread Thursday is coming too. Pre-orders are open for this Thursday at the Snohomish Farmers Market.

I hope we get some sunshine this week 🙂.
Have a wonderful week and see you on Thursday!

Summer is here 🌞🌺, the Snohomish Farmers Market is in full swing, and Bread Thursday is coming again!

This week I wanted to highlight two featured breads I am baking for you:

🍞 German-Inspired Rye Bread - deeply flavorful with a rustic crust

🍞 Pepper Jack Cheese & Jalapeño - cheesy, a little spicy, and so good for sandwiches, toast, or sharing with dinner.

And Cranberry - Lemon - Pecan Sourdough is coming back this week! I know many of you have been waiting for this one😉.

Pre-orders are open and encouraged for this Thursday, especially if you have a favorite loaf in mind.

See you on Thursday at the market!
Have a wonderful week!

P.S: I’m collecting unused mugs for our POP Kids Club bee house activity. You can bring them to BreadMobile on Thursday. Thank you so much!🐝

My friends!
We need your help to collect old or unused MUGS for a hands-on kids’ activity at Snohomish Farmers Market!

This season we are kicking off the POP Kids Club with a bee house building activity. Isn't that exciting!

POP Club stands for Power of Produce Club. It’s a farmers market program for children, designed to help kids learn about agriculture, healthy eating, local food, and the wonderful world that grows around us.

For our first activity, the kids will be making little bee houses. I think it is so wonderful when kids create things with their hands, use their imagination and make something of their own.

To make this happen, we NEED MORE MUGS!
We are collecting small mugs, cups, or little containers that can be hung and turned into tiny bee house.🐝

If you have an extra mug or small container at home that you no longer use, please bring it to my BreadMobile van at the next Snohomish Farmers Market.

Thank you for helping us create something special for the kids! 😊

The flour is milled, the starter is growing, and I am getting ready for another fresh bread bake this week!

Bread Thursday is coming at Snohomish Farmers Market!

I have to say that one of my favorite parts of my bakery adventure has been watching the BreadMobile become a little Thursday tradition for so many of you 🙏🩷. I love our chats, when you share which loaves you’ve been craving, what you served your bread with, what you tried baking at home, what worked and what didn't - I love all of it and I am so grateful for your support!

I often get asked where my flour and grains come from. I am always happy to share everything about my ingredients. The quality of flour is everything in bread baking. I use 100% certified organic whole grain flours and grains from Blue Bird Grain Farms in Washington. Some flour is fresh-milled by me, and some is milled for me at the farm. I also feed my starter only with 100% organic whole grain flour, and I keep the sourdough flavor soft and balanced so that we can enjoy the deliciousness of grain itself.

I updated this week's menu on the website (I will leave the link in the first comment).

Pre-ordering is the best way to reserve your bread.

Walk-ups are always welcome while bread lasts.

I wish you wonderful week and see you on Thursday!
