To sell some fresh bread and eggs
Well, we did it.... I woke from my peaceful slumber at 4.50am and got to work. Light the fire, batch up 10kg of dough, let it rise, knock it back, knead it, shape it, let it rise, bake it, and sell it.. 24 loaves, 12 white, 6 wholemeal and 6 honey oat....
We packaged a few extras, some eggs, some bread bags, and of we went. Arrived at the market a tad after 9, started selling at 9.15 and were back home at 11am, done and dusted.. It was a lot of fun, the kids loved it, we met some great people and got out in our local community to share some of what we love....
I'll go back in a fortnight, this time with some properly baked honey oat (they were a bit underdone, thankfully a few ravenous children helped us realise before we sold any). Working up to selling only sourdough, but that might be a month away..
