December 17 Delivery Menu

Cress Spring Bakery Home Delivery for December 17

Hello,

This will be our last home delivery of 2010. We are taking the last two weeks of December off, and there are no farmer's markets those weeks. We will resume delivering on January 7, and the farmers market will move to the Senior Center on January 8.  

A quick word about late orders - although we almost always fill late orders, they consume an inordinate amount of time during our busy baking days. There's an enormous amount of paperwork and logistics involved in the home delivery routes, and the later you order, the more time we have to spend rearranging things. So, while we will continue to fill late orders, we are going to start adding a $2 surcharge for all late orders, meaning any order that comes in after midnight on Wednesday. We really do want to bring you all the baked goods your heart desires - if you missed the deadline but still want to order, please do - but we also want to honor the work we do to make that happen. 

And having said all that, for this week only, because the week before Christmas is always our biggest, most challenging delivery of the year, we will be accepting no late delivery orders on Friday this week.  

We will be offering six different truffle varieties this week, including a couple new ones, Raspberry and Mint. The Raspberry truffles are made with creme fraiche and organic raspberry puree. The Peppermint truffles are the perfect way to top off your Christmas dinner.

The truffle varieties available this week are:
Dark Chocolate
White Dog
Maple Ginger
Five Spice
Raspberry
Peppermint

You may order boxes of any variety, or mixed boxes. If you order a standard mixed box, all varieties will be represented. You may also order custom boxes - we will mix any varieties you wish, in whatever quantities you desire. 

The order deadline for truffles to be delivered this week is tomorrow, Monday, December 13. We will attempt to fill late orders for truffles, but we will not accept any orders for custom mixed boxes after Wednesday. 
Truffles are also available at the winter farmer's market every week, and may be ordered ahead to pick up at the market.  
     
           Box of 6 - $8.50           Box of 10 - $13.50             Box of 24 - $32.00
Our truffles will last for several weeks if refrigerated, although for optimum flavor they should be eaten warm. We prefer to have truffle orders by Monday instead of Wednesday, but late orders will usually be accommodated. 

Our quotation of the week:

The Seed Market

Can you find another market like this?
Where,
with your one rose
you can buy hundreds of rose gardens?

Where,
for one seed
get a whole wilderness?

For one weak breath,
a divine wind?

You've been fearful
of being absorbed in the ground,
or drawn up by the air.

Now, your waterbead lets go
and drops into the ocean,
where it came from.

It no longer has the form it had,
but it's still water
The essence is the same.

This giving up is not a repenting.
It's a deep honoring of yourself.

When the ocean comes to you as a lover,
marry at once, quickly,
for God's sake!

Don't postpone it!
Existence has no better gift. 

No amount of searching 
will find this. 
A perfect falcon, for no reason 
has landed on your shoulder,
and become yours.

This moment love comes to rest in me,
many beings in one being.
In one wheat grain, one thousand sheaf stacks.
Inside the needle's eye, a turning
night of stars.

The clear bead at the center changes everything.
There are no edges to my loving now.

You've heard it said there's a window
that opens from one mind to another;
but, if there's no wall, there's no need
for fitting the window, or the latch.

- Rumi
