Hello everyone, Here we are in the tilt of this ever changing world, and I’m making some alterations, as well. I’m shifting my focus to on-line teaching to create more ways for people to learn at home. I think we’re all going to need this come winter when we’re stuck inside again. Check out my new on-line Flour Hour on Airbnb. From now on, I’ll also be announcing one-off classes in various types of breads that you might want to learn come the season when we’re stuck inside again. Keep a watch out for that. In the meantime, hope … Read more

Hello everyone, One of my most important mentors always says that you can ethically tell or ethically sell, but you cannot do both together. She’s an herbalist, so maybe there are differences, but I think there’s so much wisdom there. Over the years I’ve discovered that I’m more of a teller than a seller. I love to teach!

Any of these breads that you want to learn, … Read more

One thing I’ve been thinking about a lot lately is opportunity hoarding and a more fair distribution of wealth. While I think there is a larger conversation to be … Read more

Hello people, Well, it seems we have some work to do. That’s always been the case, but it has become much more acute in these past few months, and heightened still these past few weeks. There is nothing I love more than to break bread with someone and delve into a lengthy conversation about the state of the world. I’m open to doing this if you are. I don’t have all the answers and I make a bunch of mistakes, but I’m open to having the difficult conversations, and I’ve been trying to learn to sit with discomfort instead … Read more

Hello bread friends, I don’t even know where to start. Desperate for connection, I reach out to friends to ask how they are. They answer with the same question: “How are you doing?!?” And then I sit there, stumped, trying to figure out how I can authentically answer this question. There is so much cognitive dissonance in the pandemic. My heart is constantly breaking, over and over, listening to stories of people losing jobs, or worse, losing people. And then I sit down to dinner with my little family and I enjoy the time, even more so for knowledge … Read more
