I wandered into Lisa' Bake Shop yesterday to look for something sweet for one or more upcoming…read moreearly morning coffee hours. There was quite a selection, which of course led to some happy confusion. But what really caught my eye was a triangular shaped almond-based treat labeled Hamentashen! Well, at least a reasonable facsimile. I purchased one and them proceeded to give the quite pleased guy behind the counter a Purim 101 lesson, while throwing in that it was close to Passover on the calendar, and that Rosh Hashana was coming up on Friday night. I also opined about what a traditional hamantaschen looks like, and that cherry was my favorite filling. I just finished it this morning, and found this hamantaschen to be delicious, albeit a little too sweet and needing a bit more fluffiness. Here's a reference just in case another Jewish person happens to stop in and take happy notice: https://www.onesarcasticbaker.com/hamentashen/ Secular Coda: I also purchased a monster cookie and am slowly working through all of its deliciousness.

Nick actually started out selling his breads out of several area Farmer's Markets, and now offers his products at the Lakefield Store and in other area locations. I was raised on Wonder Bread and it did help build my strong body 12 ways. But these days, there is a lot of great homemade bread out there, of which living in the greater Berkeley area keeps Family expectations high. I picked up a loaf and one of their coffee cakes at the Market Community Co-op in Spirit Lake (Iowa). Both were a huge hit at the Cabin, as a few of our breakfasts and lunches were made even more enjoyable. We'll come here before the big grocery stores the next time we're in town.
