Spring is really here and you all felt it this last week-end! The store was hopping with meeting and greeting and eating…so fun for us to see people gather here. Just like we envisioned. We love local. We also love real. As people who love to cook, we like ingredients that work the way theyContinue reading “the Friday Feeding; VOL. 27”

the Friday Feeding; VOL. 26
Are we half there or half here? The store was host to a lot of eclipse traffic this week from all parts–including Canterbury, Connecticut!–while we stayed here. Our parking lot and the town green watched as we all experienced the magical change in the sky imagining what must be happening “up there”. As Emily (whoContinue reading “the Friday Feeding; VOL. 26”

Is it spring yet?! At the Canterbury Country Store it is! We are thinking it, believing it and keeping a spring in our step! The generator worked yesterday so no more melted freezer casualties for us and the second part for the power-outage-fried oven came in Wednesday night; testing is happening as you read thisContinue reading “the Friday Feeding; VOL. 25”

It’s a good Friday indeed. The Easter traditions of promise and renewal abound here at the store. The storm and the generator failure earlier this week fried our oven and melted all of our ice cream. BUT, like the lemony color of daffodils blooming underneath the snow, we made lemonade! This was an opportunity toContinue reading “the Friday Feeding; VOL. 24”

It’s throw-down week! It started with great customer Alex telling David, “You know Dave, I think your pizzas are giving Jane’s scones a run for the money” [and that’s sayin’ somethin’ cuz he is a HUGE fan of our bakery cases]. “Take that!” said Dave to Jane. “Game on!” said Jane to Dave. SoContinue reading “the Friday Feeding; VOL. 21”

March is maple month and we are feeling sticky just thinking about it. Old-Man-of-the-Mountain slurps of fresh syrup and bourbon, caramely oozy maple pie and the smell in the air of maple steam coming from Canterbury’s sugar houses. The sap has been running in vast amounts this week we hear so it should be aContinue reading “the Friday Feeding; VOL. 20”

Spring is coming we swear. Can you feel it? The longer days and slowly setting sun…even though we still get snow, it melts. When I am baking early in the morning I am actually seeing the sunrise through the trees now, streaking in light all over my floury surfaces. It has been still dark whenContinue reading “the Friday Feeding; VOL. 19”

February in New England?? Our bones are happy for this run-on-the-sun and the early sometimes “balmy” weather here, but it sure does make us wonder about how the flora and fauna that depend on consistency will fare. But it might bring an early run on Maple sap for sugaring season next month. Fingers crossed forContinue reading “the Friday Feeding; VOL. 18”
