Hi Members,

This didn’t make it into the newsletter in time but wanted you all to know. Dabrielle & Bruce from My Daily Bread will be out of town next week for her Uncles’s 90th birthday in Wisconsin.

They are leaving the bakery in capable hands if their two bakers, however, there are items specific to Dabrielle that will NOT be available – Spelt Tortillas and Blueberry Oat Muffins.

Please considering ordering extra Tortillas and/or Blueberry Oat Muffins this week and freeze. They freeze very well!

I know many of your order those 2 items weekly and didn’t want you to not have them the following week.

All other My Daily Bread items will be available this week. The following week, all items except Tortillas and Blueberry oat muffins will be available to order.

Thanks so much,
