Calamity Jayne comes to Peace and Loaf...

Our dear friend and neighbor Jayne, or "Calamity Jayne" as she is known in the music and entertainment world came to visit with her friend Caroline. Too bad we did not have a microphone handy or she might have been able to delight us with a few songs.

More delightful visits... and farewells...

It is around the first of April when some of our friends and customers come to say their farewells before heading north. Tax time is around the corner and everyone has to put their affairs in order. So the big happy family starts to get a bit smaller.

Zumba girls came to visit...

It was Lucy, our Zumba teacher's birthday. All the girls brought her to celebrate her birhtday at Peace and Loaf. There were cinnamon rolls all around, which were highly deserved after a whole hour of fun and intense exercise.

Is it Wednesday or Saturday...

It seems like George and me run our lives based on our Wednesdays and Saturdays. There is a lot to do in addition to baking. Running a bakery requires ordering the proper ingredients on a weekly basis. Particularly since we use fresh herbs and vegetables in a lot of our breads. There is also the upkeep of the garden and the prep for the mixes the day before we open. Then there is the reminder that going to bed anytime after 9 o'clock on Tuesdays or Fridays is probably not a good idea, since the alarm will still ring at 3am. But nevertheless at the end of every Wednesday or Saturday we smile and feel content for bringing a noble product to our community. Bread is soul food.

A visit from Spokane, Washington.

Last week we had a lovely family come and visit us from Spokane, Washington.
Eliana was delighted to have a nice piece of Mom and Dad's cinnamon rolls.

Cranberry nut delight....

You wonder if life can get any better when the sky is blue, the sun is shining and the breeze is swaying softly through the palm fronds when a soft gentle child walks in to Peace & Loaf with her grandparents and decides... she wants the whole cranberry nut loaf to herself. Ahhh... what a delight.

Gloria's Birthday at Peace and Loaf....

Wednesday March 4th was Gloria's Birthday so what better way to celebrate it than with the Peace and Loaf family. The day started early as usual. 3:00am wake up call... coffee brewing... time to start. Leonard Cohen playing on the background, potato bread in the making. Life is good!
