  • You got your sour dough bread, your french bread, your honey whole weat, your country Italian, your.

    Alright so I’m tired of not having anything to post!

    I thought I would show you the bread rack where I work.

    I was going to wait and take better pictures, but I have discovered that at three thirty in the morning I don’t take great pictures!

    This is the bread rack behind the counter, we offer specialty breads on different days.

    In the mornings when I get there one of the things I do is fill the racks with the breads that were to hot for the bakers to put there.

    See the baskets on the third shelf down… all of the way down by the drink cooler?

    Those are the goody baskets, they hold the cookies, scones and muffins.

    I make some of the mixes for those, but I haven’t done any baking yet.

    bread and cross country 001

    Some of the breads we carry…

    Challah (pronounced HAllah), the braided one in the bottom right corner, is made from an egg dough.

    I love bringing one home and Ben makes us french toast, it has ruined me for regular bread french toast.

    These are boules… which just means a round loaf…  

    (Imagine me as Bubba from Forest Gump reciting this list)

    We make so many different kinds of bread…

    There’s your Honey whole wheat, country italian, sourdough, french, greek olive, cheesy bubble and onion, pumpernickel, traditional rye, caraway rye, challah, pullah, epi’s, french baguette, blue cheese baguettes, asiago baguettes, Garlic and asiago, spinach feta, chocolate cherry, rosemary challah, sourdough boules, french boules, pecan raison, harvest whole wheat, multi grain…

    That’s all I can remember now…

    We also make blueberry scones w/lime glaze, cranberry scones w/orange glaze, pumpkin scones, cherry scones with cinnamon sugar… your get the picture… there are about fifty more sweets that they make at the bakery, all depending on the season.

    I have discovered something new and wonderful about my bakery job though…

    Two days a week I go straight from the bakery to the glass company where I go putter and do my consignment pieces for them to sell.

    Today I took fresh warm cinnamon rolls.

    They gave me free glass! It pays to bring sweets!

    So? What do you think of the bread rack?

    Next time I’ll show you a different part of the bakery.

    If you ever come visit I will buy you a cinnamon roll… you’ll have to come early though!

  • I think I can smell the fresh bread from here..they all look wonderful. There’s nothing better then fresh bread! 

  • look good to me and I can smell the bread cooking now and it’s night.jilly

  • Mmmmm……caaaarbs.

  • I loove bread. Challah french toast is *the best*… one of the things I love about living in NYC is that most of the diners I’ve been to have challah french toast. Do you get free bread from work? 

  • Wonderful rack: But it confuses old people like me. I love food, particularly bread. But, I have a hard time buying it now at the grocery story, our choices used to be Sunbeam, Marietta (brought us the Lone Ranger on the radio) and Colonial. You asked for bread and you got one of these.

    If I go to the grocery store now, there are 55 different kinds of bread; sort of like your list.

    I like for someone to just tell me: This is good-you’ll like it; I’ve warmed it. Here’s the butter, Get your own wine.

    Thanks for the post. I could almost smell the goodness.

  • I want your job!  of course I’d weigh 600 lbs by the time they fired me… but it would be worth it!

  • And I am dying for Chelsea Buns… You have a wonderful post and a great job. I looooove bread.

  • k8thelate sent me and now I’m hungry. I love breads. My son who I refer to as Teen Dude on my blog was kind enough to do Bubba’s voice and read the bread selections.  He had us laughing so hard. Thanks for that! Please send bread ASAP! I’ll find something to give you. haha.

  • here ,  smell bags…   I love bread…  i really love it, especially this time of night.  I’m pulling an all nighter in Dublin.  Working… well half working half waiting around.  pain in my ass I have.

    did I mention I love bread.

    thanks again

  • mmm, bread… i love breads of all kinds. i would die in that bakery cuz i would eat so much bread that my innards would be replaced with it

  • Nice buns!  (Now, I can’t believe I’m the first person to say THAT!)

    Seriously, as a BIG fan of bread, I like the photos.

  • Oh oh oh, that bread looks yummy!  I miss you Angi!

  • Mmmmm, that was a yummy post! I’m hungry now.

    I bet it smells SO Good!

  • Can you believe it?  I actually SMELLED some bread when I was reading your post!  (And there is no fresh bread here where I am).  So powerful is your post!    Check out my protected post.  I think you haven’t come by yet.

  • Ga-Lee 3:30am >>>>>>>>> Oh My word! We have a place not far from us named Wrights Bakery. It’s a restraint! They closed the bakery years ago but kept the name. I miss the worm hard rolls from Chicago, ummmm goooood! As far as I no we have no Bakeries! 

  • Morning Glorie………What time should we be there  ….. I was going to say nice racks but I was too late….Oh Hell Ang….Nice Racks and Great Buns!

    The smell is certainly good there .

  • That looks DElicious!!  What bakery do you work at…I don’t recognize it by the bread racks alone!?!

  • Ooh…I kind of feel hungry now…though I shouldn’t be!  I’m such a sucker for bread and love baking…so I hope you get to bake too.  I have a request though…for your next picture from the bakery…A nice picture of a loaf rising in the oven…

    Ahh…some fresh bread with some nice cheese would be nice…with a nice cup of fresh coffee…hum.  I like my bread to use wholegrain flour…and I love lots of different seeds in my bread too.

    Anyway…bread/sweets in exchange for free glass sounds awesome.  xx:)

  • I like bread. I don’t like bagels though. 

  • Good bread is important for bread-foods like french toast. XDD

    Some of those look delicious.

  • OK, Bubbette, I’d be the size of a barn if I had your job.  Bread is one of my greatest weaknesses.  I bet I could gain weight just smelling all that wonderful goodness!  I like your rack(s) and even if it was 3:30 in the morning you did well enough to make us all hungry for warm fresh bread and cinnamon rolls.  Peace

  • Yum!  I am just picturing you with your lip curled naming all of the types of breads!
      I just really want cinnamon rolls… please!!!!

  • Hah, you truly are the Bubba of bread 

    All of that sounds delicious!

  • OMG! Now I’m starving! I have never met a loaf of bread I didn’t like. You are so lucky (except for having to get up at the butt crack of dawn).

  • Oh oh oh! I just LOVE the smell of freshly baked bread. Lucky lady that you are!

  • I always thought you had a great rack! 

    Seeing the bread display makes my visit to Panera’s one morning this week seem blase, even though I felt quite cosmopolitan when I was ordering my pecan and caramel creation.

  • I like bread,  especially bread roll/cakes,  or soft baguettes..

    I like brown bread as well but I prefer this to be sliced,
