Slices of a raisin cinnamon swirl loaf. Available in full and half loaf-sizes on Sunday and Monday. Pre-orders received for close to half of the loaves available. Plenty of sourdough loaves still available. Call, text or stop by on Sunday between 8:30am and 6:00pm. A photo of hamburger buns I made for a friend's retirement party. I made sourdough hot dog buns as well. Reach out for more information if you are interested in ordering. (928) 205-5822, Kathleen Norton.

Menu for Sunday & Monday. Carnival pigs (Summer 2017) taken across the street from our house. We attracted a small crowd of curious carnival-attendees wondering about the guinea pig photo shoot.

In 1998 we cautiously accepted a re-homed classroom guinea pig from an amazing kindergarten teacher named Miss Judy Caldwell. Our teacher housing unit was adjacent to the teacher parking lot and Ms. Caldwell would take smoke breaks at her car and ask me "Do you want a guinea pig? You should take a guinea pig." I avoided the offer for months and then caved. Little did I know it would lead to hundreds of guinea pig fostering and adoptions over the next 28 years. Our house limit over the years has always been 12 guinea pigs at any one time. I have a very generous husband. Over time we narrowed the rescue-criteria to males (boars) or females (sows) but not both at the same time. A pig named Woody (rescued from the Petrified Forest just wandering near a visitor pullout) demonstrated remarkable physical abilities in leaping from the male home to the female home. It was impossible to contain him easily so we made the decision to focus on one gender at a time. I took themed pig-photos for monthly birthday cards for my coworkers for more than 20 years. That translates to thousands of photos which I'll begin sharing. This is an August birthday card photo featuring Olive and Penny. They loved the snacks as they wandered through the undergrowth of the big garden next to our house. Bread for today (Friday) is sold out, thanks so much to all the pre-orders and drop-in customers today. Pre-orders for Saturday will be available by 9am. New bread orders will be available on Sunday and Monday. No drop-in bread sales for Saturday based on selling all extra bread today. Call or text to place your orders @ (928) 205-5822. Happy Labor Day weekend!

The dough has risen (hallelujah!) and is in its final cold-proof stage in four refrigerators. All pre-orders for Friday will be baked early Friday morning and available for pickup at 9am or after. There will be loaves available for drop-in as follows: classic sourdough, jalapeño & cheddar and raisin-cinnamon swirl. Full and half-loaves are available until sold out. Sourdough starter available by request, no charge. My first sourdough starter was a gift (thank you Patience!) and I am happy to share this hardworking agent of rise with anyone who would like some.

Until a year ago I hosted a bi-weekly radio show titled "Kind Beat" at KGLP Public Radio located on the University of New Mexico campus in Gallup, NM. I did this for 10 years. I am retiring from the job that brought me to Gallup on a regular basis. As I wind down in one area of my life and ramp up in another (BREAD) I will post some of my favorite memories and appreciation for so many amazing opportunities along the way. Reminder: get your bread order in today (Wednesday), the next batch of sourdough starts tomorrow with first bakes available on Friday and continuing through Sunday. Happy WMAT Fair & Rodeo week to my White Mountain Apache friends.

I want to give a big shout out to Larry Maennche (Straight Up Electric) who completed the recent electrical upgrade necessary for the new oven. I requested Larry's help with less than two week's notice between the oven purchase and delivery date. He completed everything with 2 days to spare and was very responsive to questions and checking-in once the oven was installed. His service is exemplary and he is great to work with. You can see his sign in front of The Bread Shed and I have business cards to share. Please consider reaching out to Larry for your electrical needs. PS - Thank you Larry!

The early morning chill and gold leaves dropping from trees is a reminder that summer is ending and that fall and winter are close. I am loving the rain we are receiving and so are the plants and animals. Some reminders and updates: there are 2 spots remaining in the next sourdough breadmaking class on Monday, Sept. 7 from 10am-12noon. Contact me if you are interested in joining. The Oct. 24 class is full and there are spots available in the Oct. 30 & Nov. 13 classes. Thanks to all who are pre-ordering bread for this coming weekend (Friday to Sunday). Menu is posted here and you can call or text me for more details. I will be selling sourdough bread at The Depot in Lakeside (AZ) on 2 Saturdays in September (9/12 & 9/19) and look forward to meeting new people there. Regular orders will be filled on these days as well. Enjoy your Tuesday!

This week's menu - please consider pre-ordering by Wednesday for this week's big bakes (Friday to Sunday). I will have additional loaves available for drop-in customers but will limit how many are made in order to try to balance what I bake and what is sold. The best way to ensure you get what you want is to pre-order. If you want sourdough bread that varies from the dates or flavors listed below you can reach out to me to check availability for what you want. I can be reached at (928) 205-5822. Thank you for working with me as the business grows. - Kathleen
