It’s with some tears and a huge dose of nostalgia that I share with you our closure as of Tuesday, January 31, 2017. We’ve loved being a part of our Lower Nob Hill neighborhood and your daily lives over the past (almost) four years. You’ve made us soar and the years fly, by giving us your business, friendship, and support. Thank you so very much for being a part of this amazing journey. On the other side of tears is some relief, excitement, and opportunity. With two little boys at home ... continue reading...
Journey Part 23: A New Journey (the good and the ouch)
I've found that I'm doing a lot of these lately...vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv. Sitting down at my computer is an occupational hazard. My eyes immediately close and my finger presses down on any given letter until I jolt awake. I delete the jibberish and try to start all over again, usually with a similar outcome.

Journey Part 22: Flour & Co is open for business!
I have a blog post coming which will conclude the series: Journey to Opening a Bakery in San Francisco. In the meantime, I must let you know that we are officially open!

Finally...we get to share all of the things that I've ... continue reading...
Journey Part 21: Preview of Flour & Co & Opening Date!
I should start off by saying Happy Easter! I have to admit that I'm completely turned around on days of week and weeks of the month, but people were looking very pretty and proper out today. Cute family shots on facebook were a big clue too. I think a chocolate peanut butter bunny is in order. Here at Flour + Co, it's hard to believe it's that time. Our opening date is locked in for Monday, April 8th! Thanks goodness because we've had just about enough of painting, putting up baseboards, ... continue reading...
Journey Part 20: Signage
A monumental day, this 28th of March was. We had our first day of training with our wonderful, new Flour + Co team. Yay!!! The Stumptown team (Greg & Travis) kicked things off right with coffee and espresso training. I even drank my whole cup of coffee (ok - it was half of an 8oz cup). But, I actually enjoyed it...and I welcomed the caffeine jolt this morning. Funny how things change when sleep is a commodity. I think the coffee had something to do with it too. These guys know what ... continue reading...
