more than a bakery
a place for friendship
good places in our midst
I live in a small town. Some people prefer to live in places where your anonymity is guaranteed, but that is not my choice and I prefer the opposite. I like to get sidetracked when walking through the village, stopping to talk to people. Community is important.
Community often develops around places to stop and shop, whether for a coffee, vegetables or pasta, or for baked good. In my town, we have many wonderful stores, but among my favourite is the sourdough bakery – oh my the bread is amazing, and the pastries are equally stellar!. This place (called Furley) also sells meat, prêt-à-manger, wine, and more. This spot (and others) has become a hub of activity and has become a draw for townsfolk but also increasingly for visitors or as a destination. Stop by if you are in town!
There are good places in our midst.
