Grand Opening Day 1

We opened our doors at 7 am, unsure just what might come next.  We have 150 brand new cloth napkins (made by Val down the street) --- by 2:30 there were no napkins.  busy, wonderful people, great craic (look up in the Irish slang dh
ictionary) and a lot of work for a very strong, dedicated crew>

And we are off to do the same tomorrow.  Bread for tomorrow morning is: baguette, tomato/fennel, and all else was bought up today, so Bob is restocking as I write this.  Pastries - croissant, cheese danish, cream danish, raisin sweet roll, sticky buns, and scones with raisin and lemon poppy seed.  All on offer tomorrow.  As the week goes on, the bread wall will have more and different varieties.  The ovens are tested, now they are being worked hard each day!

Thanks to each of you who helped us get off to such a great start.  Your patience and appreciation make a huge impact on each of us working at the 
Blue Rooster.  

Come on back!

Proof that the baguettes are amazing: My son gave up ice cream in order to keep eating his bread! High praise from a three-year-old!
