A group of bikers is touring the Episcopal Diocese of Missouri to raise money for clean water projects in the Sudan and Swaziland.  They’re starting their ride tomorrow morning, and will come stay in Kirksville on Tuesday night.  They’ll be fed some Covert Cupboard scones and granola in the morning before they head off to Columbia.  So be on the look out for a group of riders with a good cause.  Check out their website at www.watersofhope.org.

Our friend Brett Wiley is going off to Vermont for the summer to indulge in a sea of maple syrup. He might be back at the end of August, or he might not be. No one really knows. But for now, it’s just Michelle, Oliver (the youngest member of the Covert Cupboard at 22 months old), and me, Jerry. We’re all hoping (including Brett) that we get to work with him again this fall.

As for us, why would we ever want to miss another beautiful Kirksville summer?

The pre-order forms worked, but one person’s order didn’t go through so I’ve modified the form to send a confirmation email when the order form is submitted.  Hopefully, this will mean that if you get the confirmation email, we got your order.  I’m also working on a pre-paid order form through google checkout so you can relax on your Saturday morning and know your goodies will be there when you get there. The pre-order form is up for this coming Saturday, so be sure to reserve your bread before it’s all gone!

The Kirksville Chamber of Commerce is hosting a Taste of Home Cooking show tomorrow, and Truman’s Small Business Office, who helped get us up and running, will be there with 200 of our granola bars to give away.  So, if you haven’t tried our infamous granola bars yet, get a ticket for the event and sh
