What’s been going on????

Well, we went from busy to flat out INSANE! That’s okay though-really! Valentine’s Day was really fun and we bribed Cartmen (http://cartmen.org/) to do yummy deliveries all over town! What else-well, I have made so many new friends across the state and country due to Our State magazine! A couple from Maryland came in to tell me their granddaughter’s name was Samantha Smith, Ms. Greene from Whiteville came down and brought me her Chew Bread recipe, a couple from Newton Grove came down and we exchanged favorite chef/murder mystery authors-it’s been so fun!  We’ve started putting sweets in Pine Valley Market (http://www.pinevalleymarket.com/intpages.php?pageid=35) and we’ve been playing with dessert menus for Catch and Phun!  The Calico Room (https://foursquare.com/v/calico-room/4bcba5bd0687ef3b0c36decc) is starting to carry our sweets for a late-night pick me-up, and Nick’s Diner has been carrying our cheesecakes! AND we’ve got our online market on http://www.farmersfreshmarket.org/downeast/market/profile/sugar-on-front-st.-bakery! And lastly, Around Carolina came in last Friday and filmed for a few hours and that will be airing in NC and SC in about 3 weeks-I’ll keep you posted!

We ARE doing our interpretation of a King Cake this Saturday, Monday and Tuesday-by ORDER ONLY. These are a bready cake with a sunken candied almond as the “baby” and an apple filling and a buttercream with a LIGHT sprinkling of the colored sprinkles. $15 each. Must be pre-ordered and pre-paid. Can be delivered!

Also-time to get geared up for St. Patty’s!

Irish Soda Bread-with or without caraway $6.50

Gluten-Free Irish Soda Bread $7.00

Oatmeal Currant Scones-$1.75 each

Whisky Custard Pie-$18.00 -not for the faint-hearted-baked chess pie with a heavy addition of whiskey and vanilla!

 And yes-the chicks are doing fine-loud and rambunctious, the goats are happily inhaling all of my scraps and scraps from The German Cafe’ ( who I recently discovered has a mind-blowing blue cheese burger) and Sir Augustus Howl-bloodhound extraordinaire turned 2 on Valentine’s Day!  Enjoy the pics-you’ll see me double-fisting espresso to survive V-Day, Cartmen dashing with a delivery and Jess and Dana howling in protest over the never-ending dishes!!!

Monday, January 23rd is NATIONAL PIE DAY!!!! Yes, I said that!  So tomorrow we will have Key Lime Pie, Chocolate Chess Pie, PB Pie, Cherry Pie and Raspberry Cream Pie! All pie is ONLY $3 a slice. That is ridiculous.  We’ll be open from 9:30-5:30.  Also, you can now order from http://www.farmersfreshmarket.org/downeast/market/profile/sugar-on-front-st.-bakery and have our baked goods and fresh produce and preserves delivered right to you! Awesome!  Our Valentine’s menu is listed on the previous post-order ahead so I don’t have to tell you “no”-you know how much I hate that!

Not bailing-just beleaguered!

Not bailing-just beleaguered!

Before the finger- wagging and head-shaking begin, I would like to say that you may place the blame on the evil tax-inventory system for my lack of blogging. Second in line for blame is Craigslist. 

Lot of stuff going on and coming up! February is when Our State Magazine comes out with our little blurb in it! Also, first weekend in Feb we will have a booth at the Wine and Chocolate Festival-should be fun! Our hours have changed-Monday-Friday 9:30-5:30 and Saturday 10-4:00. We are gearing up and filling out multitudinous Farmer’s Market apps for all over the place and the Mt. Olive Pickle Festival, Aurora Fossil Festival and the Burgaw Blueberry Festival! 

Below I will post our Valentine’s Day menu to get you in le mood!  Don’t forget January 23rd is National Pie day! Bring your Pie Eatin’ Bibs!  Speaking of which we will be helping Children at Heart adoption agency feature a pie eating fundraiser called “Eat your Heart Out” the last weekend in February-details soon!
