This place has been on my "get-to" list for a while now.
When you plan your trip to Fervere be sure and check the hours. They are limited. But oh, it's worth working around their schedule.
This is my loaf of orchard bread in this bag right here (their logo reminds me of the man from "Caps for Sale", but I digress). I have had several of their breads. All of them delicious, but orchard is my favorite.
It makes the perfect breakfast. Nutty, fruity, and chewy all at the same time. I like mine lightly toasted with a generous drizzle of honey on it. You knew I was going to say that didn't you? I am so predictable when it comes to bread and honey.
This whole area of town deserves a day of exploring. The views to downtown are great and I saw some interesting buildings. I am seriously going to have to cut back to half-time on my day job so I can have more time for my true calling. Messing around.
I'm amazed by the number of neato places you have to visit smack dab in the middle of the country! Way more interesting than the cheesy, plastic, glitz/glamour of Las Vegas. We have no historic areas, no historical bldgs., everything beyond The Strip looks the same...every subdivision is cookie cutter, tick tacky...no "neighborhoods". Ugh!

I'm so excited you made it to Fervere! And that's one fab photo of their bag! Orchard is my favorite, too.

So that's what orchard bread is! Think I'll do something with peaches this week.

And since I am so far away he in the hot east coast, all I can say is yes--he does look like the man in "Hats for Sale.". Otherwise I might go crazy looking at that wonderful bread!!

I discovered your blog through your sister's cool site and what a happy surprise it's been! I have some really nice memories of my college life there a million years ago and it's so fun to see it again now that I live far away. Love that town, love your posts! Art, Food, Books....awesome~

We frequent a place called Bread and Honey about thirty minutes from our place. The two gal that run it are fantastic. We live in the land of bland (although there is no reason for that situation) and their creations never disappoint. The breads they make fly out the door.
I too have found my way to your blog via link love from your sister. Now it is hard to decide which one I favour over the other.
