June Hours

It's the last day of May, 

June is on the way,

We're adding another day,

(uh)... yay!

(All those years of writing have finally payed off!)

We hope you're having a superific, fantabulous week! 

 

A Long Weekend Thank You

Our first long weekend has been and gone. Thank you to everyone who came by. We greatly appreciate your support and cooperation. It was an absolutely wonderful weekend. The next long weekend will be the official kick-off to summer! In the meantime, we have one more weekend of Saturday and Sunday and then we'll add the Friday.

Some good news, we're seeing dragonflies! So hopefully they're hungry and the itty-bitty-buggy-boos are on their way out. 

Have a wonderful week!

 

Victoria Day Long Weekend

We're on the other side of that spring heat wave but it gave us a sneak peek of summer, didn't it? I tell ya, it was hotter than fresh baked tarts on a sweltering summer morning - and if you're wondering how hot that is... it's (tssss) scorching hot! (BTW the baker in the bandana ain't so bad either - wink wink).

The Victoria Day long weekend is approaching and we are getting ready! Prep began yesterday and we'll be making baking from Friday through Monday! It's the first long weekend of our season and we sure hope if you're in, around or nearby the Haliburton Highlands you'll pay us a visit! 

Have a wonderful afternoon and evening and we hope you have a fantabulous week!

 

Mother's Day Weekend

 

Good morning!

On the bright side, the sun is shining and looks like we have some sweet weather this weekend. Unfortunately, the itty-bitty-bitey-buggy-boos are back. They don't seem to be biting yet but... they will.

It's Mother's Day weekend! Like the seguey? No mother issues here! twitch) 

We've been making baking and look... we're OPEN!

Have a fantabulous weekend!

Hours

The sun was shining today and it feels like the perfect time to say the countdown to opening is on! The store and kitchen have been scrub-a-dubbed squeaky clean and we are going into prep mode! It's back into the kitchen for Bill and I and we're looking forward to welcoming you all back. It was a long winter and we have missed you.

Unfortunately I have to address the elephant in the room... how are we going to operate this year? As always Bill and I keep a close watch on recent events and it would seem the "powers that be" have left it to us business owners to make our own decisions with regard to covid mandates.

I will start by saying we realize the Ontario government has dropped mask mandates for retail businesses, however, we have never subscribed to the politics of covid. We take our cues from the scientists and the medical professionals and have done whatever we feel will keep you and ourselves safe. Having said this, we are going to run the store the same way we have the past two seasons and we will require a well-fitted mask that covers from nose to chin be worn in the store( little plastic mouth coverings or visors are not acceptable). We do this for our many customers who are elderly and/or immuno-compromised. We do this for your safety as well as our own. If Bill or I get sick our businesses shuts down, something we can't afford. It's as simple as that.

Now, we recognize that this decision may be unpopular with many and we know people can be very passionate about their opinions. Please, please, please do not make our little business a platform for debate. We want to see an end to masks and covid as much as everyone else. We're trying to do what we believe is right for us, our business, our customers while trying against all odds to prevent becoming another business casualty.

On a positive note we are about to begin our fourteenth season! As always we will do our very best to offer the quality, fresh baking and friendly service you deserve. 

We sure hope you'll come visit!

Have a fabulous week!
