My Favorite Bakery!

Meanderer, for some reason I've always pictured you as on the thinish side. Although, I'm starting wonder if that is wrong. You seem to post a lot concerning food, but maybe that's how you stay nice and trim. :grin:
 

Ina, I don't know why but your post made me think of this painting!

Most people are consumed by food, rather than the other way around.:)

Much later, Bond went with Hop-a-long Cassidy. His face was on every bag of bread and we started calling it "Hoppy bread". Like; do you want Italian, rye or Hoppy bread?

I used to work in a granola bakery. We always sent out huge plastic cereal bags full of granola. Bigger than anything you could find anywhere. We were a small bakery but were starting to gather new customers. I had a few formulas I could make they were relatively easy and tasted better than anything in the store. The granola we made was tender, not crunchy. There was strawberry, raspberry, Blackberry, brown sugar.

We had a big bakery mixing bowl. Each recipe had brown sugar, berries, oil, salt and enough water to make a slurry. When mixed it came out as a paste which I put in large cooky pans and smoothed it out. I think I baked them at about 400 for about half hour. 15min on each side. I had to make sure the oats were a golden brown because that always enhanced the flavor I stirred them as necessary. I remember the owner was always cautioning me not to bake them too long.

I don't remember the exact recipe but I do know I could have made them at home if I had wanted. Salt and brown sugar were very important. Molasses may have been in the recipe in small amounts.

My ex said she always loved the way I smelled. I always smelled like cookie dough. Perhaps I should take this on dates. "Hi mam, have some cookie dough?"

You remind me of John Travolta in the movie "Michael". He played St. Michael, the Archangel & wore an oversized trenchcoat to hide his wings. Wherever he went, people smelled cookies baking. :)
