Thanksgiving is easily my favorite holiday.  Getting together with family to share a meal and enjoy the company of relatives you only see once or twice a year is a joy.  That’s why I’m excited about what the deli and bakery will have for you this month to take the work and worry out of what should be a happy and relaxing holiday.

We’ve have been concocting some great food for the holiday season.  We have a guide by our soups so you can see when your favorite is likely coming up.  Also keep an eye out for our Thanksgiving fare, with delightful items like Stuffing Bread, Green Bean Casserole, Mashed Roots, and Pumpkin Pie.  There will also be a variety of take and bake Thanksgiving essentials to take the stress out of cooking the meal.

No smoke-filled rooms or clandestine imbedded ear-marks were involved in the negotiations we held with both The Sage Baking Company and Panhandle Artisan Breads over the summer months. What we arrived at is fresh-baked artisan breads for our customers five days a week.  Hooray!!!!

A few of our bread enthusiasts have been downright indignant recently to discover that Co-op bread baked a day or two previously is still available for sale and that it costs the same as the loaves baked just that morning.

“If thou tastest a crust of bread, thou tastest all the stars and all the heavens.”
Robert Browning (1812-1889) English poet

So far in 2009 we have offered a few different varieties of sprouted-grain loaves. Many of you may have become acquainted with our Sprouted Wheat and 99 percent Sprouted Grain loaf, and rightfully so. These two favorites are some of the healthiest breads you can find in Moscow.
