Matt called me when he got to the bakery this morning …help was needed!
For about 10 seconds I groaned at the thought of being jolted from bed…
And then I was racing downhill on my bike (awesome) and then I was greeted by my lovely friends (“employees” just doesn’t do them justice)
And then I got to choose from this scrumptious breakfast buffet for my morning meal!
Complete with unlimited coffee 
I got to say “GOOD MORNING!!” to everyone who walked in the door, watching them savor each crumb.
For breakfast I sampled our selection and paired a few pieces of our sweets with a yogurt I brought from home. Tasty!!
And drank too much coffee – wheeeee!
‘Twas a pretty fun morning indeed!

Sounds like a fun morning! And anything paired with a delicious Siggi’s is bound to be amazing!! Best yogurt ever!
That looks like a spread I would have given up an hour or 2 of sleep for! Looks fab!
Looks like a tasty spread! I have a love-hate relationship with that over-caffinated “high.”
I wouldn’t mind waking up early either if I got to choose from the awesome sweets buffet for breakfast!
Yum!
Enjoying my morning coffee…could do with one of your sweet treats to go with it! It’s donut making day at my household…my son has waited all week…time to get busy!
Seems like you have a really fun work environment at your bakery.
Sounds like a pretty awesome morning to me!
Sounds like a lovely morning! Your bakery always looks so friendly and inviting. Those goodies look delicious. Too bad I live in a small town in Missouri…I’m too far away to enjoy them.
I would agree, getting jolted from bed when you’re not ready wouldn’t be the way I would wanna start my morning… BUT like you said, some yummy bakery treats, coffee, and greeting people would most definitely make up for it!
You’re a good wife and partner….baked goods for the rushed morning, total bonus!!
Have a wonderful weekend!
I’m pretty sure you have an awesome life
Do you give samples everyday or just special occasions?
Everyday! It’s our signature
Not a bad place to have to spend a Saturday morning
In my mind, you chose the perfect breakfast!
Oh yum, what is that “streusally” looking muffin on top?
Apple Streusel!!! It’s incredible.
I do believe I’d be in trouble being around all of those sweets and breads all the time. It’s the smell that always gets me! Have a good weekend!
If I ate breakfasts like you did, I would totally have a sugar high and crash every morning!!
siggi’s is so good!!! and what a good place to have to go early in the morning!
I wouldn’t mind being called into work on the weekends either if it meant saying hi to customers and digging into fresh baked goods! Hope you have a great Saturday!
I would plan a vacay to Virginia just to nosh on that spread – looks amazing!
If I was greeted with a breakfast buffet such as that one, I would be in serious, serious (but delicious) trouble!
i’ll take one of each!
Love the bakery on Saturday mornings. What energy! What deliciousness!
Great way to start your day! … A breakfast of champions!

How do you work there and not devour every single thing within reach???? It all looks amazing.
Um, I do
Plus a busy bakery is a sign of success, right? Seems so warm and cozy too
True, true!!
what an amazing built in breakfast. i am so impressed by the self control you exert around these amazing goodies
Oh gosh I have zero self control!!
Lucky you! That looks great!! I would NOT have the self control to work in a bakery…
Unfortunately, neither do I!
Haha sounds like a great morning
You need it is going to be a fun day when you are called into work. Being busy in a bakery is a lot better then being slow. The morning spread is not a bad deal either.
looks like a fun and delicious morning!
Well, I had a slice of GH wholegrain toast breakfast, close……
Nice!!!
sounds like such a great way to start the morning…I can almost smell the fresh bakery smell! Have a great day!
Great way to start a Saturday! Coffee and a muffin – yes please
You never fail to make my stomach growl, haha! I’ve always wanted to work in the back of the bakery, this looks so much fun.
Great way to start the day, especially the unlimited coffee bit!
Mmmmmm so much tasty looking food. I would work at a bakery just for access to all that!
Does GH serve espresso drinks too or just coffee?
Just coffee
I guess the downside is having to get out of bed, but the upside it that you get to taste so many delicious baked goods!! Seriously, everything looks amazing.
I loved that you brought your own yogurt, adding some more nutritional values
awww I wanna work there too
Wow you have amazing will power girl, so many yummy treats!! Just curious so you keep all the stock on the front or are they in like a display case thing so they are covered
They are covered by a glass sneeze guard, but they are out on display.
I wish I had a sneeze guard.

Oh, thanks for the heads up on google “puddin pie” (Nov 14th) because I’m the queen of useless trivia and I was about to check it out.
Mmm so many baked goods! What a great way to start the day.
I love bakerys, especially ones that bake everything from scratch
Ah, the early shift. Did it for five years…can still pull it off in a pinch but not so fond of rousing so early anymore! Love to see your bakery from afar!
