    Just started making my own homemade granola this year, because I’m always afraid I won’t like what I find in the pre-made stuff in the grocery store – but something tells me the cville cluster is top notch!

        Yeah, I probably will. I’m still at the beginning of my college career as a second year, so I can still keep my GPA up. We’ll see 🙂 I’m also looking at Colorado schools. Being from Cali, a lot of places are competetive.

    A bread question:

    I buy bread from Great Harvest and another local bread company, Spring Mill, frequently and LOVE it, but it goes bad pretty quickly. Any tips on keeping it fresh? Special storage? It seems to grow mold even more quickly than my homemade bread, strangely.

    Reply

    • KathEats says

      Your Great Harvest bread goes bad quickly? It shouldn’t – it should last 7-10 days on your counter (you’re not putting it in the fridge are you?) A cheese bread will last slightly less.

      I can’t speak for Spring Mill, but our breads are optimized ingredient-wise for counter top storage over a week

    I would love to try the granola! Thanks for blogging and giving us something exciting on a cold, rather grey Monday.

    I looked for your favorite Blue Cheese at Short Pump’s Whole Foods this weekend and didn’t have any luck. Maybe I’ll spot it next time!

  204. Emily G. @ from my messy desk says

    I ordered this when you offered it for OpenSky. The boyfriend and I ate 1/2 a bag in one sitting while watching movies. Who needs popcorn when you have C’ville Cluster?!?

    Aside from the granola, I haven’t had the opportunity to try GH bc the closest one is 4 hours way. Our office received a package from one of our company reps full of GH (Lafayette, La) goodies and they were amazzzzing! We received chocolate chip oatmeal cookies (those babies are HUGGGGGGEE!) and cinnamon burst bread!

    Not that this is any of my business – I saw it on a local bakery website, but do y’all offer incentives for sales reps? Medical or insurance (that’s what I’m in!). I know they have a limited amount to spend for businesses but it would be a great way for them to save some money if they were discounted but also getting the GH name around, too!

    Reply

    • KathEats says

      We actually don’t offer a discount and haven’t thought about that before. We do have a catering menu with similar boxes that are discounted, so I’m sure they could use that. We haven’t been approached by anyone yet. Something to think about

At that time I visited their website and was planning to place an order, but now I cannot locate the website and was hoping you could tell me who it might be. The only thing I remember about the couple is that they are young and he is a chiropractor. Thanks!

    If you like Hunger Games, I’d recommend the Maze Runner by James Dashner. It’s kind of similar, but I like it better.

      Usually I just buy ingredients – a few proteins and a lot of veggies – and build meals as I go.

      Nope, don’t really get tired of it, but I only have oatmeal maybe 50% of the time – I also have smoothies, pancakes, toast, overnights oats, etc.

    I want some of your granola! I seriously look up to you. You are one of the first blogs I’ve read on a daily basis and I’m thinking about opening my own bakery down here in FL! I just always think how lucky people are to have your bakery in their town where they can just pop on over and get their fresh bread for the week. We have nothing like that here, only generic Corporations. Lately, I’ve really been enjoying making my own bread/bread products in my very own kitchen. Which is what type of cooking/baking I found I love most. I promise I’m not just sucking up to you because I want your granola haha. You honestly just inspire me 🙂
