We stopped in this morning on our way home from the Denver area. Raz was getting a mite peckish, but I wasn't really hungry yet, so we opted to stop into the first place on a local search with "bakery" in the description. We are definitely glad we did, since we found a pretty decent selection of pret-a-manger foods that could be packaged fairly quickly for the road. We each had a warmed up Mushroom Friand before hopping back out on the road. Raz declared after that he should have had it cold, but I disagree, that warm, savory, mushroomy filling with just the most subtle hints remaining of the wine used in the cooking was just what I needed to break my fast this morning. We did take a Green Chile Quiche, and a Quiche Lorraine for the road, and we polished off a Chocolatine between the shop door and the car. All-in-all, a very worthwhile morning bakery stop.

I'm fairly certain that if we were local to the area, I would be chomping at the bit to take part in the cooking classes they offer, as the kitchen classroom looked very inviting and the everyone working in the store was both patient and warm. I'm pretty sure I would give my eye-teeth to be able to make that delicate, buttery, flaky pastry that was part of my morning friand today...
