One Item from the Bucket List

…Andrea really wanted to try the long noodles at Xi’an Impression

On our long walking excursion yesterday we passed the Arsenal Stadium and found the restaurant that Andrea had on her list of places to visit while in London. Xi’an Impression is a very popular Vietnamese restaurant that many stadium goers enjoy. It is very small but we arrived at a good time and had no problem getting seated.

Andrea ordered the biang biang noodles and Brendan and I shared the smashed cucumber salad, pork filled dumplings and a Thai lemongrass chicken salad. Everything was delicious.

Easter at the Market This Week

Posted on April 18, 2025 by Mama Cormier

…special bread and extra vendors

This week we brought out a recipe for bread that we haven’t made in several years….Timbit Paske. We slightly altered our fruit bread and added four Timbits when we shaped the dough.

There certainly was a lot of interest in this bread and it was mostly sold when I left the market an hour after the market opened.

Along with the regular vendors we had a few new merchants with special treats for Easter.

Making and Selling Bread

Posted on March 12, 2025 by Mama Cormier

…every week at Montgomery’s Inn

Every Wednesday I volunteer at the Inn making bread that is sold at the Farmers’ Market. On Tuesday I go in and prep the dough that proofs overnight in the fridge. Wednesday morning we shape the dough, heat up the outdoor wood burning oven and bake 40 to 75 loaves of bread.
