Covid Update
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Well, I am now into Day 4 of Covid, and all things considered, it’s pretty much like the last time I had the flu many years ago; there has been a definite progression of symptoms and temperature. Definitely achy, with that weird shingles-like scalp tingle when you touch your hair. No energy. Fever started second day at about 99, up to 102 yesterday, back to 99-ish today. Coughing, sneezing, fatigue. So yes even what looks like a mild case (I hope!) still sucks.<\/p>\n

\u00a0So, in case you might be wondering, the wine shop will NOT BE OPEN this weekend, except for bread pickup Friday. (see below).<\/span> <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Friday Bread Pickup This Week\u00a0 4-5:30 pm <\/span>
\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cranberry Walnut –<\/strong> Made with a nice mix of bread flour and freshly milled buckwheat and whole wheat flours. Orange juice and olive oil are a unique combination in this bread that add flavor and keep a soft crumb, then loaded up with dried cranberries and toasted walnuts. Perfect for turkey sandwiches and makes great toast- $5\/loaf<\/em><\/p>\n

Sesame Semolina –<\/strong> this bread uses a sponge as a pre-ferment that ferments some of the flour, water & yeast before mixing the final dough. Made with semolina and bread flour as well as a soaker of cornmeal, millet and sesame seeds, a little olive oil rounds out the flavor and tenderizes the crumb. The finished dough is rolled in more sesame seeds before baking. A bread with a lot of great flavors – $5\/loaf<\/em><\/p>\n

mmm, and pastry this week\u2026<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Black Sesame & Candied Lemon Brioche –<\/strong> A delicious brioche dough full of eggs, butter and sugar. Filled with fresh lemon zest and candied lemon and as if that wasn’t enough, topped with a black sesame streusel before baking. Ooh la la, what’s not to like? <\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

To get on the bread order list, click on the \u201cContact Us<\/span>\u201d<\/a> link above and fill out the form. Each week\u2019s bread menu is sent to the list each Sunday, for ordering by Tuesday, for pickup on Friday. Simple, right..? <\/em>If you will be visiting the island and would like to order bread for your visit, at least a week\u2019s notice is recommended for pickup the following Friday. <\/em><\/p>\n

Economics of the Heart: Hats Off to American Voters!

\"Eight

The news and survey poll mantra for the last several months led us to believe and fear the worst kind of Ultra-Right takeover of Congress in last week’s election. So it was a huge relief to a lot of us that moderation, sober reflection, the Hearings, and of course the recent Ultra-Right Catholic Supreme Court Decisions led a lot of voters to turn away from election denial and give a solid message in favor of moderation.<\/p>\n

We shall see how things roll. But it does feel that an oppressive weight has been lifted from our body politic, that there is at least a shot at moving Congress away from the carnival side show it has become under its massively egotistical and entitled so-called Freedom Caucus.<\/p>\n

The signs we will be looking for are legislators working across party lines (yes, a tattered cliche, but missing in action since about 1994), <\/em>an end to MAGA madness, a more deliberative Congress, a shared commitment to the spirit of our Constitution and a return to our real traditional values.<\/p>\n
