Today has been so fun and chill. We made less bread today than usual so things have just been more relaxed and festive. Feels a little bit like high school in the days before Christmas when final exams were complete!
We have lots of cookies
And Karen’s pecan pies left!! Her recipe is true Southern PEE-can pie!
My huge bowl of oats kept me full until 1pm – and left no desire for snacking on broken cookies or hunks of cinnamon chip. I did have a hunk of Popeye to tide me until bakery lunch hour (2pm).
Our order rack is nearly empty!!
As a special lunch treat for the employees today we ordered lunch from Beer Run.
Their famous nachos
Turkey Trot and Apple + Goat Cheese sandwiches
And salads
‘Twas the night before Christmas delicious!

Lunch looks delish! You must be looking forward to the relaxation in the days ahead. Merry Christmas, Kath!
Wonder how long it will take today before everything is sold out. Wishing you the best sales day ever
Have a super Christmas Eve, Kath!

Man I could use a salad! I’m swimming in fried food central right now in New Orleans!
I sure hope your PEEcan pies don’t have a speck of cinnamon in them…
Merry Christmas Kath!

I feel like I say the word pecan correctly. Either way, it just doesn’t work for me. Weird.
Merry Christmas
Mmmm, pecan pie! I spent most of my life thinking I hated pecans, but they’re my favorite nut- and everything tastes better when it’s baked into a pie.
Oh my busyness! Hope you can rest and enjoy the Holiday soon!
looks like a fun day at the bakery!
The food looks great and glad it was a mellower day with less baking.
Ordering lunch from a place called Beer Run <– Great name! Great idea
And the cookies…molasses/ginger are my faves. Yum!
Those nachos look insanely awesome. What’s on them?
Beans, meats and cheese!!
I say Pee-caaaann, lol!
Yum!! Looks like a busy but very successful day for the bakery! Merry Christmas Kath!

You are so good to your staff…such a positive work environment…you set such a great example! All the best to you and your staff…Happy Holidays!
I used to love the energy of those last days before Christmas break at school! Merry Christmas, Kath
PS…LOL at the new, check to confirm you are a human box!
Noooooo, it will always be puh-kahn!
All that food looks delicious
That salad looks so delicious so I’m taking it as a sign that I need some more greens in my diet (and probably less sugar) so I think I’ll have to have a salad with dinner.
Potayto, potahto..pecan pie tastes fab however u pronounce it
YUM! Looks delish, and great to treat your co-workers!! Also, love that you are taking the week off, that is so wise and I am just glad for you to enjoy a relaxing week- I was pajama girl all this past week:)
The salads look delicious and those cookies with the nuts look great too!
