Pronoia excerpts…~ Rob Brezsny If you’re honest with yourself, you’ll confess that there are few glories more sublime and more freely available than taking a walk in nature. Simply to imagine it can fill you with sacred joy. Close your eyes and visualize yourself sauntering along a wide dirt path in a meadow bordered byContinue reading “Monday’s Muse”

Duendesday: Faerie Dreams
{life with a curious and crazy 12 yr old} End of Summer brings Samhain/Halloween dreams to the forefront – though November 1st of last year she was already designing her costume for this year, now is the time of deep decisions: Faerie Princess or Blue Faerie (not ‘The’ Blue Fairy, mind you, I’ve already beenContinue reading “Duendesday: Faerie Dreams”
Our week starts with a Typical Tuesday
Tuesdays are generally our busiest days. Josh gets up bright and early to proof bread, warm the ovens, bake the bread, and then label and bag all the orders. Then he piles it all into our tiny car with our growing child and delivers to all the good people (the St. Nick of bread? ha!).Continue reading “Our week starts with a Typical Tuesday”

Musings for a Monday
What drives our ruralish passions around here at Rock Bottom?

That’s where fermentation comes in – natural yeasts (and sometimes a little added, if necessary), mixed flavors, time =Continue reading “Musings for a Monday”

Recipe Thursday: Bread Book – Summer Meat Loaf with Gazpacho and Smashed Potatoes
It’s hard to think of Summer as meat loaf time but in this house both J & D could eat meat loaf anytime. Just the name throws me, we should come up with another name…around here, it’s likely to be an actual name like Freddy or Winston or something. And, if you know J atContinue reading “Recipe Thursday: Bread Book – Summer Meat Loaf with Gazpacho and Smashed Potatoes”
