At long last the bakery expansion has taken place. The wall is open, the new display cases filled with pastries...more room to spread out, more sunlight - the better to see friends coming in the door. And yet, I'm surprised at the feeling that I'm going to miss (just a little bit) the "old" place.
It's a curious clash of emotions that I'm experiencing here. It's like watching (I can't call it my child because it's not my child) but it is like watching a child I care about growing up and moving onto the next phase of their life. I have a feeling that many of us "regulars" will feel this way about "our" bakery.
All of which goes to say...thanks Doug, Kelly, David, Matilda, Michael and the rest of the crew for this wonderful place that you've created here in our community.
