I didn’t know I was in for a treat yesterday as I went to Pitcher’s Bakery in New Harbour to pick up a loaf of bread – which I got fresh out of the oven, too hot for a plastic bag so in a paper one, making my whole truck smell like a bakery.
I rushed home, put the kettle on, and ate half the loaf there on the spot, with butter and molasses – just like when I was a kid. I see 10 pounds and extra miles on the truck in my future – this stuff is addictive!
And better yet, I now know their baking schedule (and you do too – and it’s worth dropping in!): every day except Sunday, white bread comes out at 10:00, whole wheat at noon, multigrain at 2:00, and cinnamon raisin at 4:30 (except Mondays, when they don’t make the cinnamon). Now that’s a schedule I can stick to!
Update: If you know me, you know I can get pretty excited about things. So, no surprise that I went back for more today! Here I am with the lovely Trudy and Lisa, the ladies responsible for making the bread! (sorry for the quality – taken on my cell)
