happy new year

A great way to end 2007 and begin 2008. Today we reinstalled the front doors (with the glass in them), and installed the two opening windows (top front). With the oven going sans insulation, the bakery warmed up very quickly once it was enclosed.

We hosted a few friends at the bakery for New Year's Eve, and baked a few flat breads and one little loaf. They turned out quite nice, and I think everyone had fun. Getting to this point has been fun, difficult, educational, exhausting, and exhilarating. Hopefully 2008 brings more of the same minus the stress, difficulty, and exhaustion.
